“Beyond the armor and the scars, a hero has a heart ablaze with a passion to protect. A hero throws himself into danger for the sake of others.”

For such a silly title, this is a surprisingly serious story. That's not to say it isn't very funny, and more than a bit silly, but is still clearly made with love and purpose. It is a kind of parody or satire, but more in the way OPM is satire of superheros. There is no bitterness or malice, and it's clear the author actually *likes* isekai stories, though I also have no doubts he also has plenty of complaints about them.
Anyway, enough psychoanalyzing the writer. The story is exactly what it says on the tin, content wise. In terms of technicals, it is well written, though there are a few missing words and maybe a few odd phrasings. I would guess this is a first draft, or something close to it. There are probably also some refinements to the characters that ought to happen. I can't quite put it to words, but in some ways they all feel a bit too convenient. Maybe shallow would be more apt? Nothing that bothered me as a reader, but the character moments all just seems to wrap themselves up a bit neatly.
Eh, whatever, I'm sure I'm not properly explaining myself.
I'll just put it simply. This is a fun story, and a pleasant read. I'm hoping it doesn't suffer the fate of virtually every other online story and either get dropped halfway through, or else linger on the vine until it withers into a tedious husk of its former glory.
I believe in you, Mr Rhapsody! Don't let me down >:|
