Disciple of the Lich: Or How I was Cursed by the Gods and Dropped into the Abyss! (Vol 7) So many of these stories end up abandoned, needlessly padded with filler, or continued long past the obvious end point. I really appreciate it when one actually comes to a satisfying conclusion.

The final fights were enjoyable and consistent with the nature of the established world, the epilogue was fitting. Major plot points resolved. All in all a very satisfying end to the series. 4/5

Chillin' in Another World with Level 2 Super CheatPowers (Vol 1-2) The anime was enjoyable and J-Novel club has this on catchup, so when the anime hit a cliffhanger I picked it up.

Vol 1 was fine at first. A hint of a plot, world development and character introductions, etc. But the epilogue pretty much ruined it for me. (maybe the first time I've seen a chapter start with a trigger warning.) 2/5

Vol 2 was kind of dull. I guess this is supposed to be a slice of life comedy, but I don't find any of the characters particularly funny or entertaining. 2/5

The Apothecary Witched Turned Divorce Agent (Vol 1-2) Another J-Novel Club catchup. I enjoyed this one more than I expected. A fair amount of the plot is predictable, but it is reasonably well written and "flows" well. I was actually shocked when I reached the afterword in Vol 2 because it was moving along so well. 4/5
