How much of the pacing being weird and the MC seeming emotionless is that the adaptation from the original (I assume LN) ain't too crash hot, or is it the source material, or is stuff lost in translation?
I do enjoy this story but it feels pretty WTF a lot of the time - kinda like Arifureta or Master of Ragnarok LN to animes being a total clusterfuck compared to their novels being pretty good, but their mangas came out ok in comparison, so what is goin on here for this to be like this?
