(top part was when I read chapter 3)
From what I read so far, it seem not bad and not those too cliche'/badly written romance novel like the one on webnovel there, and it seem from the first chapter, there maybe some future chapter where the author handle mental scar a bit ? (maybe not go too deep), and his wife do draw for the novel, so that a plus with map and character look there :3. The Mc seem quite lovely a bit, not the edgy type and also quite OP, but trying to learn her power there. The setting is more into the mythology + fantasy in japan there and the authore seem quite researched into that ?. And bonus is long chapter (cons is he seem to already bulk release most of the chapter, so have to slow it down, so no faster release there unless he stock more chapter and bulk release again, which is confirmed by author)
also quote from author answer about the novel in first chapter comment:
"1. Yes she will begin utilizing improvments. This will allow her to make the lives of the villagers better and that in essence is Taka's personal goal. (so some simple tech invention)
2. Remember, Ileria is an odd mishmash or as Taka puts it plagerized version of Earth. So she is still figuring out what advancments and what is lacking.
3. YES a huge yes on land development. This is explained in a later chapter."
But the only cons that I can see is the use of paragraph/grammar, which at least readable, but a bit jarring/interrupt the flow in some part (but that early chapter, so the still can improve it), so unless you are one of the very harsh grammar nazi who just disregard the rest of the story just because of grammar error and only focus in that problem, then it decent enough, and maybe over describe in some part in the novel (mostly for main character who author already described but that early chapter so maybe not later ?), not sure about writing style but it seem decent enough (at least not like the mess I see in some novel I read before), and I didn't read as many good

It's not often that you find such a cute, fluffy and relaxing story. If you're tired of all the gloom, doom and tragedy so often found in stories these days, you've come to the right place!
To top it all off, the story also has really good grammar. Aside from the first few chapters having a bit of trouble with stray quotation marks, which were a tad confusing, I have not encountered any issues that would make the read unpleasant.

It is probably not the story you think it is, but this is a fairly good/cute slice of life story. I would recommend it for anyone who likes that and who also likes Japanese mythology.
Grammar is generally good with only a few awkward phrases. (Does heavily use Japanese lore and terms for things though)
The story is cute, you can enjoy the nice life she is getting. She is generally kind to a fault. The POV for the other characters are not bad. I would even say the falling in love of the cast is done well (if accelerated and a bit sudden because of the time skips)
I want to make it clear, the story is not bad for what it is as I am now going to give some more harsh feedback. These problems can be summed up as
It time skips a lot. All the interesting points are just skipped right to making it not quite a slice of life... the MC does not struggle with learning or doing anything so it is hard to get invested in anything... and the trama feels VERY superficial. It is only mentioned at and for plot points then left behind. (Also the trama of the slaves and Moto's should be roughly on par or worse than hers, but it is not described that way)
Details below:
Style: the biggest problem is the time skips. It is clear that the author wants to hit the interesting parts of the story, but is a bit extreme.
Also, It is mostly written in 1st person but there are a few times it isn't when a character suddenly knows inner thoughts or something. I know it is probably the tail or something, but it should be said not assumed.
Characters: The MC is a a bit of a Mary Sue.... Note this is not a problem in the normal sense as this story is NOT really and adventure or building/crafting story and she is already worshiped as she is connected to the gods..... It is just that she learns everything to do with her powers so quickly that it a bit unfufilling as she just does it. It would have been exciting to have her slowly learn how to bless, charge the barriers, cook without modern tool

★★★ 3.0
Got to chapter 6 before the pacing got to me. She wasn't there three days before she left the shrine twice, has a rather large change of self gets at least one magic teacher, etc. She gets a few people and they are extremely loyal in a day? Where is the time to heal, connect and such? It probably is better for others but I quit at the first sign of romance because there's fast and then there is not realizing that even the brief bits she remembers would need more than 6days to get over. Your pacing is just a bit quick for this.
