Okay it's late for me and I binged this at night but I mean what can I say I didn't fall asleep.. this is good the title is dumb I'm super judgy when well rested so this is a lucky pick.
The style is kinda if unique. While I'm sure you can find similarities in other popular stories that can be said by anything that's relatively good. The story's not a carbon copy of anything else.
The grammar is great which as any long term members will understand is a deal breaker after awhile. The story is easy to read and understand so thank you word smith.
The story is kinda funny it plays it's humor well while not slap stick comedy definitely puts a smirk on your face while reading.
The plot is easy to follow. The story appears to be following a plot line so fingers crossed this has a proper ending.
Characters are pretty fleshed out as in they have personalities. There is no main character so the author does well making each one feel alive.
Honestly read the 1st three chapters and you'll be hooked. This is honestly a hidden gem. I can not recommend this enough give it a try

The logical progression of a lost murderhobo party in a modern superhero world. So murderhobo that their names are literally just their classes.
Absolutly hilarious, especially in terms of the use of detect good and evil.
Side characters and enemies are quite well developed too.

One of the better power fantasy stories on this site, with a truly awful title. I think the title alone has scared off more people from reading this novel than anything else about it. The narration is good, and really quite funny during the comedic moments. The overall plot has significant character growth, and is genre aware enough to subvert or expand on the tropes the story is using. Just a great story overall... If only the author would change the title.

First of all don't read this if you want some serious or emotional story.
With that out of the way, this story is great. It's about a group of fantasy adventurers who get reincarnated on a superhero earth (Basically a reverse isekai). They are sent by a goddess to stop a great catastrophe so, with an evil detecting cleric they run into all the tropes from crime bosses, over supervillains to extraterrestrials.
This isn't high literature, but the simple style and grammar fit in well with the pretty blunt tone of the story. Also it fits really well with the comedy of characters singlemindedly running into each other. So yeah, blunt is the descriptor to go.
The story is definitely the weakest point here. Besides the premise there isn't much of a main story thread. Every goal in this story is incredibly simple: defeat evil, be a good private detective, have a worthy fight, etc. But then the fun in the story doesn't come from a complicated plot anyways.
Instead it's all about the characters. From the adventurer party all the way to the supervillains every character is unique and in their own way hilarious. The only aspect in which they collectively suffer is that, mostly because of the simple story they have an IQ below 100 and can think critically if their lives depended on it. Then again they don't really need those to shine.
Here, even a restaurant owner gets more backstory and character than some main characters in other novels. Everybody plays of each other and their interactions with each other make this story worth a read. And that doesn't even consider their interactions with the wider world.
If you want to turn off your brain for a while and have some fun this is the story for you.
Tldr: Don't think too hard, ignore the simple story and enjoy the amazing characters.

This is the lightheaded tale of mercenary meatheads that have traveled from a fantasy world to a supernatural modern day earth.
The style of this story is very reminiscent of 'Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure' and I definitely recommend this story to those who enjoyed any of the three Bill and Ted movies.

No idea where the story begins. Chapter One is definitely mislabeled, or the story just picks up midstream. The navigation at on the page is similarly borked. This may be a great story, but having to struggle with its format isn't worth it. I recommend you avoid the story until, and unless, this is sorted out! (Scrolling through the chapter list, I fin there's more than one Chapter One! So, that's not going to be confusing
