In Another World With My Smartphone (2024)

Bow down you heathens for Jesusphone graced himself upon mangadex

It's... rather dull, to be quite honest. But I guess it's fine if you like slower stuff.

Is every volume cover going to be just him taking selfies with different girls? I think so.

Thanks for picking up Smartphone again <3

Quite nice manga
That princess, cant wait to their answer.

Glad that charlotte's getting the attention in the manga. The anime kinda very much ignored that character. I'm sorry

It might be interesting for a reincarnation isekai to explore the idea that the MC doesn't accept their death. Would set up a pretty good subplot/subtheme for a few arcs loosely modeled around the stages of grief. It would also create interesting character development. I suppose sans reincarnation this describes something similar to Shield Hero but in my head the MC reaches acceptance sooner and the plot doesn't become boring after that.

@Fadamor Don't forget to clarify that they translate the web novel, and not the light novel. And only the LN is canon.

I don't like the anime. I haven't read the novel/s (I don't think I can tolerate the character's inner thoughts any more than is minimally necessary). But this manga adaptation of the story is actually quite light and funny, for all its lack of excitements, drama, and challenges.

Couldn't make it past the second chapter. The characters didn't show an ounce of personality and the world and plot were entirely too generic. If someone can tell me if it gets better I'll give it another go, but as it stands I'm not impressed. Imo, isekia is just another in a long line of bad nightmares the manga industry undergoes every once and a while that suck the life out it like a leech. They'll be discarded like old trash in a year or two :/

Annoying.

As with a lot of harems the girls pretty much immediately become irrelevant to the story. Especially in this one, as Yumina basically takes over any sort of interaction with the plot that the girls who had been there before might have had. Touya turns into a henpecked husband-to-be who has no input on who is added to his harem while also somehow becoming very angry at anyone who looks at them wrong despite not even having romantic feelings for them.
The story becomes interesting enough later on and the harem is basically throwaway background at that point so I haven't dropped it.

Still can never tell if this is an attempt at making a sardonic post-ironic work, or if it's a series that can be this disgustingly cliché

He barely ever uses his smartphone tho...

This defines the bottom line of the isekai genre
