Description:
In a dilapidated castle, Astaroth awoke as a Demon King.
With his ‘wisdom from his past life,’ he would rule over his lands as a thorough ‘realist.’
“Demon King, why are you attacking the level 1 Heroes?”
“Defeat them before they become stronger. That is called strategy.”
“Demon King, why are you sending fake money to the enemy country?”
“To bring chaos to their economy so they will self-destruct.”
“The werewolf troops have attacked. Should we use silver bullets?”
“Not bullets, shoot them with canons.”
And like that, Astaroth ‘reformed’ the old tendencies.
He became a lord who was loved by the people and his subordinates, and he would go on to be called the most powerful Demon King in history.

Interesting concept, but here's the thought: Just what kind of Demon Lord VS Hero that the author was playing? In the old stories and games might be true. But, it's 2019! The Demon Lord didn't kill lv 1 hero not because they're relaxing. It was because they didn't know who the hero was until it was too late. Why? Because he was busy conquering things and being faced by excellent troops and fighters. Then when the hero slayed one of his generals, he just can't order his other generals to give reinforcements. This remain true in Myth, Canon, Legends, etc. Besides, in most common Stories, someone can be called "Hero" after they defeat "Significant Evil". So well, another crappy isecrap. |

@Urabask there might be, but this is just too close to DD. Imagine someone trying to copy something superficially. But doesn't understand why he is doing what he is to copy it. This is the result. |

Man, Japan nor anyone does Jeanne right. Should've been more tomboyish since the original was tomboyish . |

Odd pacing. Flashback, flash forward and recap all jumbled up in a mess with no reasoning. Cringe. Using the word realist as much as a 14-year-old uses the word deep. The dudes just a reckless idiot. All in all headache-inducing... |

As others have said this looks heavily, "inspired", by Dungeon Defense. So far it's pretty average, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Unfortunately nothing really stands out. Average read. |

18 days ago I initially thought this was just a bad adaptation of Dungeon Defense. So far it's rather "meh". It could get better, but I just don't see it making it. meh/10 Read Dungeon Defense instead. IDK why you'd think a Japanese author is copying a Korean author when there are multiple examples of this type of plot published in Japan before Dungeon Defense ever was. |

I usually like isekai unless it has criminally bad writing. And this one was not a exception until now. Hell, I even kinda liked the whole Hijikata thing. It reminded me of FGO. But I have the firm belief that any work that features Jeanne d'Arc should hold the character to certain standards. At the very least degrading her to a haremette is a no-no. And as tolerable as this has been for isekai standards, I don't trust the author enough to pull it off. |

@AMetroid I enjoyed (and still enjoy) Arifureta's LN a lot but I hated (and still hate) Nonbiri Nouka's entire schtick. 90% of Nonbiri's manga is just narration and it's boring as heck. |

@JustNatsuki is there a dungeon defense manga? Nope. No manga/manhwa. You'll just have to read the novel. Unless you HATE reading anything not in a speech bubble, you'll enjoy it WAY more than this manga. ![]() |

Aside from the blurb and the first chapter, I'm not really seeing "realist" in here much. It's just a dude that's pretty decent strategist. |

@NankingwasAprank Thanks for the heads-up! I don't need to bother reading the manga, and risk getting annoyed, knowing that beforehand. |
