Title: In Another World With My Smartphone Vol. 2
Series: In Another World With My Smartphone – 2nd volume
Author: Patora Fuyuhara
Comments: If you thought Touya had it great in the first volume then be prepared for that to triple. Touya not only gains a few more party members as well as wealth and status, thanks to his unfair advantage, he gains a ton of useful spells. The only iffy part is how he is bringing and creating objects from his world into this fantasy world, which can feel somewhat at odds. While there are a few important events, the volume mostly covers day to day life, and what a life it is. Touya’s new life in this world is a fun one. He is ever popular; whatever he creates is likened by everyone. Thanks to his good luck at meeting important people that also favors him, he has it extremely easy. The only negative to all this is how oblivious he is to his party members’ feelings towards him, and yet he is quite sharp when it happens to others. Thus, his life is a little bit too perfect and can border on annoying. Despite the slice of life aspect, the author spends some time in developing a richer world, allowing us to understand how it functions. From being tasked to be the envoy to form an alliance to the neighboring country to taking on quests and eliminate some slimes. In the end, there’s still plenty to like about the volume.
Rating: 6/10
