A Late-Start Tamer’s Laid-Back Life: Volume 9 - The beach episode. With dinosaurs. There's not much to say about the series. It doesn't derive from its formula. The author also seems to run out of ideas since a good chunk of the book is just forum posts about "Well, it's Silver-Haired...".
Soup Forest: The Story of the Woman Who Speaks with Animals and the Former Mercenary Vol.1 - first off: thoroughly disappointed that this is the name of MC’s restaurant and not a literall forrest of soup. “Letdown" is putting it mild. Secondly, incredible first volume. For me it’s certainly the best first volume in recent years. It looks like there is a setup for another volume but I’m not sure if it needs one. I think it would work beautifully as a stand alone light novel, but I’ll certianly get the next one. Thirdly (is that a word?), as for what this LN is about: I’ll just quote the author’s afterword since it’s the greatest sales pitch I could give:
I’ll give it a strong 8/10 (10/10 if you’re craving comfy)
Failure Frame: I Became the Strongest and Annihilated Everything With Low-Level Spells Vol. 2 - So my daughter and I watched the first episode of the anime and after ranting about it for way longer than a simple anime warrants, she dared me to continue reading the light novels. So here we are, let’s see how far I can go. I’m not even going to write down detaled impression. It’s terrible in every possible way and I don’t see any redeeming qualities at all. 1/10
Failure Frame: I Became the Strongest and Annihilated Everything With Low-Level Spells Vol. 3 - Great now they have a little elf girl in their party and the first opportunity they have a full page illustration of her naked. There really is no expectation low enough to hold this series to.
