You think you can beat me? You and what army ? Oh...that army... I thought I was getting the hang of things Famous last words, right? This middle stratum is filled with fiery magma (with monsters to match ), but I've been holding my own. I may be a weak, little spider, but I've got brains on my side--three of them, in fact I've got Information Brain to call the shots, Body Brain to do the moves, and my new Magic Brain to figure out...whatever the heck is up with magic in this world, sheesh. Think you can take on me, myself, and I, Mr. Big Giant Scary Dragon?
Kumoko is stuck in the middle stratum, filled with fiery tempered monsters. And literal fire! Her multi brain ability has helped her a lot with getting out of sticky situations, but can her new magic brain figure out how to defeat monsters that are more powerful and have resistance against her attacks, while she is weak to theirs? Can the lone little spider make it out alive this time!?
The series started a little slow to me, but boy has a picked up since! I absolutely love Kumoko and all of her antics. The fights are action-packed, but thankfully Kumoko's narration of the situation and her own musings slow down the action so you can fully enjoy what is happening in the moment instead of just skimming to get to the next page. I love the designs of our little spider heroine and the monsters she fights.
However, after reading a few volumes in a row, I know have this weird habit of seeing everything as skill levels and how to level up... Which has really upped my game in completing tasks and learning new things, so it's actually been kind of fun! Reader be warned; that may be a side effect of reading this series.
I'm itching to see how far Kumoko can go, if she can really makes it out of this dungeon. On to level six— I mean, to volume six we go!
