A Late-Start Tamer’s Laid-Back Life (Manga): Volume 1

A Late-Start Tamer’s Laid-Back Life (Manga) #1

by Tachibana (illustrator), Yuu Tanaka, A.M. Cola (translator)

LJO–aka Law of Justice Online–is the newest full-dive VRMMORPG to hit the market, and office worker Yuta—or Yuto, as he goes by in the game—is ready to spend his whole vacation immersing himself in the experience. His dream is to become the strongest Tamer, commanding the most powerful monsters, and he’s even willing to shell out the cash to do so! But when he arrives in the world of LJO for the first time, Yuto is shocked to find that the special monster he planned to leave all the fighting to is...a monster dedicated to farming—without a shred of combat ability? Despite it all, Yuto quickly decides that his adventures in this world will involve way less fighting epic battles and way more harvesting plants, as he prepares to take the game at his own pace and with his adorable, trusty companion by his side!

CW: dull as heck.

Protagonist starts off extremely unlikeable. Wont visit home to visit his now-elderly childhood dog. His parents beg him to come back while he still can and he blows them off to play video games all summer. Bro, you could bring your stupid vr game with you AND spend time with your dog. Not only that but he sucks at the game, despite using a pay to win strategy and sinking 600 bucks into it?
And we're supposed to be entertained by his easy going life? But the whole time I'm thinking, why do we care about this loser.
Then he becomes a monster tamer and the two monsters he tames are just basically humans. Imagination is off the charts here.

So cute!

I figured this manga would be good, because I love the light novels. I wasn’t quite prepared for how adorable this is. The end came far too soon, and I’m looking forward to the second volume!

I absolutely love the art work. The actual story is very simple.
