I would be appreciate if the MC start as early 20 as well it would fit more with the setting and how this MC is a very tall person for his age
16 is a bit too young and most teenager out there is still the very definition of "Naive"
I don't understand why JP story in particular need to have MC age around 16-18

Well the running gag of this novel is that Ryouma is always estimated as a 20+ years old person despite him being 16. And the difference between his age and capabilities start to appear in volume 2, volume 1 was more 'realistic' in my opinion.

I get that he is a formidable fighter thanks to the training in 'sure-kill' martial arts but he is also a (so far) flawless strategist / politican. Like he is a reborn Sun Tzu or Machiavelli
Some of the greatest generals in our world start their military careers around that age.

Just because we're not in that environment doesn't mean we don't have that talent.

Take Galusha Pennypacker in the US civil war as an example, joined the union army at the age of 16 and was a brigadier general when he was 20 with no formal military training, some people are just natrally talented at certain things.

he was prompted to brigadier general because they thought he was going to dead. If the wound was less serious he wouldn't have been prompted. Also he became a colonel when he stay with the army after war and join the army for real.

just read on wiki that pennypacker came form a family with a long service in the military so in a way he was raise in the kind of environment.

No he wasn't he was raised by his grandmother as his parents where dead, and had no formal training, unlike say custer who was also young but went to west point.

I tried this , but after it got into the whole 'infiltrate the government to save the princess', it sorta bored me.

I was thinking it was more about growth in his personal power and the power of the 2 sister.

To be honest the latest Manga chapter hints more for heroines then the novel. In the novel we only get small glimpses of heroines (the Malfisto sisters are the only noticeable so far but in the novel they don't get much 'screentime') but no development so far.

Well in manga it seems he kills monsters too, while in novel he hasn't done that yet dealing only with human affairs

^Since that time to the latest chapter she didn't show anymore affection to Ryouma, that's why I said "I wonder if in the future Lione can become one of the "potential" heroines.".
btw, the twin sister seem livelier in the manga than in the WN (I haven't read the LN).

Started reading the Volume 2, I'm shocked to know where the title word "Wortenia" actually come from. I mean the so called 'Wortenia Senki' started at that island lol.

You easily forget that prior to being summoned, Ryouma wasn't your average kid by his world's standards. We even have fellow Japanese guy Sudou comment on this.

Can ANYONE explain what's up with his childhood friend being summoned to the empire and whats happening with here? This was asked earlier and got ignored.

For those commenting on protagonist's ability, it's pretty clear he's a mary-sue character. That's like calling the sky blue or the sun bright, a 16 year old can't manage what he does both physically and physiologically. At the very least he doesn't have the backstory to excuse anything but good swordsmanship and survival skills.

Unless something changed in the LN. The childhood friend was never summoned.
