While I do found it an enjoyable read much like the earlier volumes in the series, the suggested main plot was a bit of a disappointment. Yeah, it started relatively strong (even though I am no fan of the trope being used), but then just fizzled out when things are quickly resolved without much input by Ivy and her family. What remains is an endearing slice-of-life of winter hunts, spring time travel and some interaction with monsters both violent and friendly. Still, I enjoy slice-of-life, especially when I like the characters involved, so I did really like the book despite its flaws.

4.25. Definitely an adventurous winter for the gang. 😊✌️💕

Book 6 of The Weakest Tamer sees the story pick up in pace, introducing more forward momentum and raising the stakes slightly. However, a central plot point involving memory loss unfortunately exacerbates the series most persistent narrative flaw: excessive repetition.

The already over-explained inner thoughts and frequent reiteration of past events become even more prominent, as the characters and by extension, the reader are constantly walked through what they’ve forgotten or need to recall. This narrative device, while conceptually interesting, ends up highlighting the author’s tendency to rehash information rather than trusting the audience to follow along. As a result, what could have been a compelling twist only underscores the weaknesses in the series’ storytelling approach.

Story is slowing down, writing is repetitive

While I still finished this volume, I probably won't buy the next. Each scene started to become boring and repetitive. I couldn't count how many times a page went like this, " 'oh that's so strange' it was really strange. 'Yeah, I think that's strange' it was strange because it was unsure. Oh well." Characters repeatedly forgot or expounded on things we already knew. Using amnesia as a plot device just made it worse. It had is moments and I liked the premise of the story. However, the writing is failing to give a clear picture of the world and all the tension and drive to the plot has evaporated at this point.

[Linus Larsson]

By far the weakest entry into the series so far. The writing quality has dropped considerably, often turning into repetition and introducing amnesia or deus ex machina tropes. Like "wouldn't it be weird if _thing_?" and then _thing_ happens immediately afterwards.

Oddly enough I feel that Ivy's maturity has taken a step back and she now just acts a lot dumber or careless, which is the complete opposite of how she acted in all previous volumes. Meanwhile the side characters act like children despite being well into their 30's, 50's or even 60's in some cases.

The seriousness of the events back with the abductions and the criminal organisation is long gone and so seems to be the writing quality overall. What we're left with is audible quips from the slimes and random monsters and hijinks from guild staff and shopkeepers. But there's only so many times you can write the same scene or do the same joke before it goes from endearing to eyerolling and annoying.

Mystery is being thrown out the door almost immediately by solving it in the same paragraph or simply shrugging it off like it doesn't matter. Suspense suffers much the same fate in that nothing even seems serious to them anymore or the solution just magically appears before them mere moments after the characters and readers have formed the question of what's going to happen now.

1,5/5

Not sure if I'll look into the continuation of this series. I guess if you really love the vibes of it and the characters then it may be your thing. But sadly this doesn't have the cozy music and style of the anime to lean back on when the contents of this book was so incredibly lacking.

4.5 if I could

It is an interesting, giving me a good laugh, part of the series. And there is some serious growth for the characters. I just feel like there is a lot going on at once that made things a little jumbled. This could also be a translation problem, but time skips were not 100% clear which took a double take to read. But the story line as is, is still really good and smooth sailing.

Κατά τη γνώμη μου το πιο αδύναμο βιβλίο της σειράς. Η αμνησία εξαιτίας του κύκλου ήταν πολύ βολική ώστε να "ξαναθυμηθούμε" τι έχει γίνει μέχρι τώρα. Αφού έφυγαν από το Hatow η αμνησία αναφέρθηκε μια φορά και μετά τίποτα. Δεν το εκτιμήσα ιδιαίτερα. Στο προηγούμενο volume προσπαθούσαν να περάσουν για οικογένεια για να μην φαίνονται ύποπτοι, αλλά εδώ δεν αναφέρθηκε καθόλου. Όσο προχωρά η σειρά η Ivy γίνεται όλο και πιο απρόσεκτη. Όταν ήταν μόνη της δεν είχε αυτό το πρόβλημα.

[Crimson]

Ivy continues making monster friends, a new slime joins the party and a herd of serpents accompany them to the next village. My favorite character is the serpent leader, it just sounds so cute and I love reptiles.

I didn't notice before but the title really is accurate, they go to the dump almost every other day to feed the slimes and pick up stuff they might need. Now I'm tempted to keep reading just to see how Sol will evolve next.

[Jesus]

Great volume

The adventures of Ivy and her companions are truly special. Ciel is constantly trying to help Ivy in anyway possible. Soda has become a background character. Flame became the star in the winter because she was producing fire stones. But now Sol is shining the most. I'm glad Ivy is able to report how she's doing to all of those people that have helped her along her journey.

[Laura Quevedo]

Winter in the town, well, this felt like the MC and the gang stayed on the periphery of things, helping out here and there. It felt a bit more passive than the other books

Genre: adventure, magic, slice of life, cute monster companions.
No romance (main lead is 9yo)
POV: multiple (though most of the story is from MC's pov)
Tropes: memories of past life, living in the woods, hunting, magical world, slice of life.
CW: mentions of deaths because of the harsh winter.

[Bob Smith]

A great volume

It was nice to know how all of the people Ivy knew are doing well. It’s also nice to know that at least one of her family regrets how they treated her. I feel Ivy’s old hometown won’t be around much longer. I want to feel sorry for them but karma can be pretty nasty at times.

[Katie]

It always feels good when a favourite series releases a new volume. Ivy and Druid are so darn cute! I'm going to be honest though, because of the time between the releases, I'm having a really hard time keeping up with the names of the people from her past. It's so cosy though I just love this series so much.

[Steven]

perfect

Love this series, I can’t wait to read the next volume in the series! Only 5 months till it’s translated!

[Gamal Esam]

Ivy, and Druid and their adventures alongside Ivy’s little companions continue in this volume. Ivy met her newest companion and formed a friendship with a unique creature and the story goes on.

[Daisy Moreno]

Very good continuation to the story. Ivy and Druid and the group are back to adventuring after a cold and snowy winter.

[Rachael]

I love how this story is evolving. The adventure continues, there's always more places to explore, people to meet and wholesome times to come.
