Konjiki no Moji Tsukai (Word Master) [Manga]
Quote:
It's honestly one of the few Isekai I've found as of late that I've enjoyed. The main character has a suitable unique power with a respectable power curve, he's anti-social in the sense that he doesn't want to get involved without compensation and he doesn't mince words, but books and food are what he demands and he seems to have a soft spot for kids. The four summoned heroes aren't assholes either, though they don't get much screen time. There is a web novel out there, but from what I can tell from the manga its following the light novel's path and has changed certain events and is up to chapter 38.

And the MC is reasonable in the manga so far. The only thing he did that I outright disliked was when he tried to have Arnold hand over his food without compensating him for it. Though him sparing the leader of the Beast Cage and the dude who was conducting experiments on making the Chimera struck me as a bad idea as well, but the heroes arrested the dude when he caused a ruckus with his own boss and I'm not sure if the fat man will return.

A child and an old man are about to die and he's hell-bent on demanding freaking fish from them, what an asshole I know it might be done for comedic purpose, but it's not funny at all Everyone would be willing to give you some food, hell, all of their food, if you saved their lives, duh

Honestly, if he actually left her to die then I'd level a similar compliant, but considering how it ended I can't complain barring the fact that it was his rampant hunger that caused the issue. Though there is some tone clash with his interest outweighing the situation at hand, so that's definitely a character flaw.
But I've seen so much worse, so...
