Failure Frame: I Became the Strongest and Annihilated Everything With Low-Level Spells, Volume 4
While Mimori's journey for revenge takes him all over this magical, dangerous world, his classmates are fulfilling their destinies as "heroes" by facing off against the hordes of the Demon King. Despite the cruel world she's found herself in, S-class hero and ex-class rep Sogou Ayaka still wants to protect her weaker classmates—from their enemies, and from the cruel whims of the Goddess. But when it's just her up against an army of monsters, can she even save herself?

A weird progression in this world, it is a pattern but never ending harrowing is a theme in this book.

This author needs to concentrate on the story and not on sex
the actual story is decent. But the reset makes me want to stop reading.
I am getting so tired of this author throwing in every tired stupid trope of Japanese adolescent fantasies. In the first couple of books it is the possible raping of the elf. In the last book it was the kidnapping and raping of a little girl and then turning her over to a brothel when the bad guy gets tired of her. In this book, it is the creepy woman in power sexually molesting the woman who is the subordinate; and apparently just for fun, we now have one twin lusting over the other twin.
Please stop. You could have progressed the story so much more without these stupid childish fantasies you are writing.

This isekai (Teleported to another world)-Fantasy novel series suffers from two serious faults, the illustrations copied Ais Wallenstein and Riveria (Dan Machi) to make the look of leading girl, Seras Ashrain. The main story plots, of how Mimori Touka had a "trash skill", seeks revenge (Goddess and rest of the students in his class, for bullying and betraying him to save themselves), has a much better version in Arifureta (From Commonplace to World's Strongest). The Harem-retinue-like deal is also better written and worked out in Arifureta (by the same publisher by the way). Getting sentenced to death is also better explained in Arifureta. So the million dollar question is, where is this fantasy novel series, original?? The use of a mimic slime, was better written in (That time I got reincarnated as a slime, and Monster Tamer light novel series.)
This Volume 4, has a slow pace, with three or four battles with monsters, and the main character and his retinue looking for the other important witch. The Forbidden Witch. Touka, is centered in finding a way home, that and getting his revenge groove on (with the Goddess, her henchmen and the rest of the students in Touka's class).
This volume 4 has 200+ pages, illustrations, cover page and informational pages from the author and publisher, with only 5 chapters. Although having a large page count per chapter usually means a higher character, world development, no new characters were described in this volume. Some of the students in the class supposedly died, the rest are trying to get stronger, so as to be able to survive the upcoming monster stampedes.
Publisher has programmed Volume 5 for mid October, 2022. With so little action, so little movement on the main plot arcs and secondary arcs, this light novel series (adapted from a web novel series) could take forever to finish. The web novel series, has about 500 chapters so far, and it has taken a different route from this light novel series. You could say they are no longer the same story (with the same characters).

This book suffers from 'middle of the series' syndrome. There's perhaps one scene that matters, producing real character development amongst our core cast. Then it's stuffed with meaningless fights. Perhaps it's entirely skippable, were it not for the on-going development of our antagonist cast.
There's a few issues with the author's writing that really come out in this novel. Conversations are not their strong point. Everyone sounds like they're monologuing or lecturing. There's nothing natural about them.
Another issue is that, aside from the MC, the author hasn't really attempted to give anyone else a character arc. They're not given enough page count for the reader to connect, so it comes across as random short stories that diversify for the sake of more scenes. The author would do better to focus on one or two of the extended cast, focus on their story from start to end, rather than this piecemeal approach.
Oh yeah, and the Goddess is a real nasty piece of work. The author's got a gift at writing sadistic, mean-spirited bullies. I can't wait to see her, and her little posse of like sociopaths, get crushed beneath the boot of vengeance. It's the only reason why I'm still reading.

The search for the Forbidden Witch continues as Too-ka and crew fight their way through the land of monsters. This volume teases a 2-c reunion but it’s a near miss. Nothing definitive this time either. Seras continues to catch feels for the MC but he just watches her struggle, so that seems unlikely to be a thing anytime soon. Hopefully the pace picks up soon.

Great story so far.
The author develops the story in this volume at a good pace. And at the same time develops a lot of the characters, which is nice, as there are a lot of characters in this serie. The action scenes are well written, the bond between the MC party is developing at a good pace, and the book ends in a good cliffhanger.

I love this series because it balances action with an OP protagonist very well. Also, the romance that is building in this series is great and I am feeling bad for the side characters because I thought Too-ka had it rough.

fun read
Good light novel with great art. It’s a little shorter, but that means new ones come out very quickly. I’ll grab the next one when it comes out.

Well, seems the main character classmates are closing in the power gap. Lv 100 the same as lv 2000 as E rank heroes. Quite a huge differences.

Pure enjoyment
I am enjoying the storyline. Refreshing to see strong intelligent women, that the protagonist tells on. I look forward to see how he gets his revenge.

Overall this was an enjoyable volume, even answered one of my troubling questions, why Kobato was working with Asagi. The trek to the great ruins was borderline to long, just breaching the grey area, so some might not be happy, but I think it was all necessary to some degree or another.
The fated 4th volume reunion of the classmates was not what I was expecting at all, even despite the spoiler reveal in the color images at the start of the book. Was both relieved and surprised.
Very happy that this volume was finally translated and released on Kindle. Just hoping the next is released in August and not 6+ months from now.
