明日もまた勇者のとなり 1

A story half told in the present, and half in (fantasy world) flashbacks. We primarily got the 魔王's perspective, but do get a little of the 勇者's perspective as well. I'd say it's pretty well executed, tho things feel a little too simple/like they could use a bit more punch - which I assume the 2nd volume will deliver more of.

Vocab is pretty good for fantasy at this level, no overly fancy magic stuff, and much easier than series like 転生王女と天才令嬢の魔法革命, 私の推しは悪役令嬢です, or 葬送のフリーレン, but harder than something like 君が死ぬまで、恋をしたい
