PR: Typical isekai summoning, with your typical goddess making efforts to save a certain world from yet another Demon Lord. When this typical goddess manages to get her hands on a "overpowered" human, she thinks on laying on her back and enjoying the adventure, so when she sees this OP hero using the time dilatation of the spirit realm to train like the protagonist of Dragon Ball after a particularly unsuccessful fight, or crafting all manners of support equipment, she thinks he's nuts. Overly-cautious, to be precise.

As it turns out, except for the occasional commentary that we all know is a jest, like saying one needs five hundred torches to delve into a cave, or that the goddess has been replaced by undead in the second he wasn't looking, he wasn't being overly cautious. It's the goddess who has underestimated the dangers of an S+ difficulty rating world, for time and time again the MC proves that his wariness saves their skin and that sometimes it wasn't enough, that there are factors he didn't account for. So in summary?
The writing, judging by all the tropes and the snippets of novels I've seen, is lacking to say the least. The artwork does all the heavy-lifting, which I have to say is really good and detailed, the drawings really manages to represent the full spectrum of emotions that the characters have, albeit in an exaggerated, comical way. Unfortunately, the joke of MC saying that he needs an astronomically large number of supplies to feel comfortable gets old fast, and the plot can't really sustain much more than a vague interest for the rest of the story.

| Worse character with the worse disign. Nice... Chains? Are you a dog? |
I'd say that the first volume was a solid above average score, given the novelty of the overly cautious hero and the daunting prospect of enemies beyond the scope of seeming overpower, by volume three the "comedy" part get pretty old and the enemies no longer seem that awe-inspiring, so it falls back to average sustain purely by the artwork.
By the fifth and last volume, the story is completely sub-par, and annoying enough that I skipped part of the text. A whole lot more tropes, some time-travel string of fate BS, and worse of all an ending that shows nothing of the long-awaited for Demon Lord, but him getting insta-killed by a suicidal technique. Twice. Because MC resurrects after dying, and then he suicides again "permanently" only to be resurected yet again by some divine legal loophole. 5/10
