A Peaceful Life Beginning in the Bakumatsu

Actually, regardless of the circumstances, the book's pacing is quite good, and the writing is also good, but there are some problematic points in the later stages of this era. How will you handle that? Will you become the emperor yourself? If not, I think it's quite difficult. It would be better to end it quickly at the climax so you can start a second world.

Peace and tranquility under heaven? Lacking the steely will forged in fire and iron, the unwavering spirit, and the profound wisdom to travel back in time, this author's sentimentalism only breeds melancholy. Please do not dishonor the words "peace and tranquility under heaven." Because it was created by the heroes of our time, with their blood and tears.

My advice to newcomers is to skip this book; the latter part is utter garbage, and the author is just indulging in self-pity.

Let me put it this way: the protagonist is a complete hypocrite, always lecturing others with grand principles. He confesses his love to a woman and disappears the next day, continuing his lectures to everyone he meets. Then, when his girlfriend is dying, he returns with a lame excuse about going to see a doctor, and disappears again, still lecturing everyone he meets. It's so ridiculous!

Replying to the previous comment about needing fan points: I've subscribed to the whole thing and almost spat out blood. My advice to newcomers: stop reading after Kenshin ends. The rest is pure garbage. There's a reason why older books are short.

The male protagonist is a faithless scumbag; this book is pointless.

You think I've never seen the anime/manga series "Rurouni"? 😡

Actually, I prefer reading Dark Souls, The Elder Scrolls, and Sekiro fanfiction.

There's too much fiction and too little reality, and some parts even have a bit of pretentious, artsy vibe… I don't know how to put it. If you've read a few beginner-friendly books, this one might be for you. But if you're already tired of beginner-friendly novels and pretentious writing, just don't read it.
