This story is a bit rough in the beginning. The MC is kinda goofy, and the anime adaptation of this story is pure trash. The second season in particular doesn't even look like the story in the light novels. The author was still in college when they started writing this series, but it improves as the story continues. It is comedic, but the comedy is situational, not the outlandish goofy 4th wall breaking ridiculousness from the anime. Please give it a try, endure the rough parts, and you'll find a truly enjoyable story.
