So...The anime is a fast action pop corn blast, the manga is an action comedy and the light novel is How to Total War For Dummies with dark humour? Oh boy, that's one hell of a franchise

I loved how the author made Mary Sue. I mean, that's an archetype usually associated with bad writing, but in here, the author literally throws a Mary Sue into a real world, where her idealistic views and ways to solve problems are nothing short of stupid and against the law. Sure, she's powerful and 'perfect', but that's not how war, soldiers, and real world works.

About the naming, I'm only on the second book for now but I think it'a not meant to be original. The world leaders are still the same people in a different world. That's why city names are basically the same as well like Berun and Moskva. (My favourite was Ransylvania) And I interpreted Mary Sue's name as being a hint towards her having divine favor. Oh and Tanya did nothing wrong, the English name is wrong. Fight me.

In the end she was more concerned with whether she'd covered her ass in the war crimes department than the loss of civilian life but she herself had no malicious intent, she wouldn't have done something like that without orders. Just a darker spot on her way up to the cushy backline management job she wants.

@@misskobayashi57 it really depends on you. The first two books were mostly focus on strategic thinking and views whilst always showing about politics and logistics of the war. It did have some chapters that had action but were mostly a small portion. It was about book 3-4 it began to pick up and began focusing on a larger aspect of the war. But to answer your question I think you would like it. It is a highly thoughtful book and does explain certain aspects of war, mostly the First World War.

I finally have the time to watch your content To the part you talk about the future reporter I don’t mind it at all considering it directly echoes what happened in our world where (not)Germany cannot win the war Also don’t forget how bonkers the web novel got where she got a new identity in US military and fought in the Philippines against the (not)Japanese and to the future we fought the aliens from muv luv

The light novels are certainly not for everyone unless you really enjoyed academia.

how many books into the series have you read? just want an idea where you are coming from story wise. sounds like you are just talking about the first book. I agree the report feels unnecessary but i have read the first book 2 times and i feel like he was vaguer then what people give him credit for. well we may know that the war ended badly we don't know the terms of it. truce, cold war , cease fire, full blown loss, or technically a win but the country was so bankrupt that it collapsed. all of these could be the result but from later books you know that the other countries are also falling apart public support and economically as well. what kept me reading is the question, "what happens to tanya?" does she die gloriously does she defect (she cares more for her life than the war) does the war end with her over enemy lines with no way back so she settles down and changes her name.

I love the anime and manga, the LN though I just find the sheer info dumps and pages long exposition and explanation on things, subjects and situations (they spent 3 pages talking about how a phone line was cut in the 3rd book, which I know is defiantly bad but please, we get it) just really drags on and I end up zoning out even though I enjoy seeing the full consequences of actions taken, one of my favorite things from the Overlord books I say the Manga does a great job of keeping up the pace while still cleanly explaining whats going on and peoples inner thoughts is hilarious

The focus of the story between the anime and the light novel is quite different (action vs logistics) but the they both generally cover the same story beats.

Honestly, I started to read the LN, but stopped half way through. Why? Because I hate what they do to the character of both tanya and being X. In the anime, they make tanya a lot more competent. Here in the LN they atribute a lot of her acomplisment to god instead. Also, again in the anime, they made being X a little crazy, he stops to nothing to make tanya admit he is someone worth of being prayed. While in the LN they just make him a complete incompetent. Thats it, he is an idiot who sucks at his job.

How is novel Tanya incompetent compared to anime Tanya? I have read 6 volumes and never once got that impression. And what do you mean God is incompetent? In the novel, the events are meant to play out naturally with only rare instances of God directly intervening. The anime version went heavy on the God stuff, pretty much making it so that everything is cause by him. It makes god more of an immature ass than a divine being.

@@AnimeFlyz it is not that they make her incompetent in the LN but that in the anime she is a lot more. The point that really get on my nerves is were they said that the whole inspirational speach she gave to the troops was made by her other personality. I really liked in the anime to see that even if she didnt want to be there, she was still able to put on a mask and be a good leader. I really hate that every time she perform good in the battlefield is not because she herself is good at it but her other self is. The thing about god is that its true that in the one in theanime is a lot more inmature, but that part of what i like. There is debeate that if god had done everything the bible says he did, he should be both impulsive and with more than questionable morality. And that fits perfectly with that god. The on in the LN start complaining to the buisnessman in the first chapter and everything the mc says is completly true and god himself cannot refute how bad he managed things out.
