General Overview: A quick overview of the plot, be careful not to give any spoilers away. This should be a paragraph or two at most.
Isn't it every guy's dream to have a chance encounter with a beautiful woman in a dungeon? Well, maybe a dungeon isn't the first place that comes up when trying to meet a woman but that's what Bell had in mind. Naively thinking he could meet a pretty lady or a party of them, Bell heads down into the fifth floor only to be chased by a minotaur. Just as he's about to receive the death blow from the minotaur, Aizu Wallenstein obliterates the minotaur from behind showering Bell in minotaur's blood. Could this be the fated chance encounter that Bell was hoping for?

Category Ratings: (1-10 scale)


Art:
The art is superbly drawn. One thing I noticed is that there are a lot of younger characters. I sometimes wonder when I see casts of young characters if the artist can drawn middle age people at all. That's just something I picked up.


Plot:
The title got me curious and it's not quite the harem manga that I thought it was. But that's not a bad thing really. The plot does start out action packed. We are introduced to the male protagonist who is a loser adventurer to put it bluntly. Through sheer hard work, he starts getting noticed. But usually it's these "loser" protagonists that have hearts of gold.


Characters:
Bell
He's from Hestia's familia and is a novice adventurer.

Hestia
A goddess that watches over Bell.

Aizu Wallenstein
A swordman who earned the moniker War Princess from single-handedly annihilating an army of level 5 monsters. She also broke the record of a thousand failed courtship. She belongs to Loki's familia.

The gods and goddesses are all from different cultural mythologies from Greek, Norse, Egyptian and etc. I'm not sure why these deities are on the planet interacting with human beings. The reason has not been revealed. And I'm not sure if these deities can travel freely between their plane and the world.

Originality:


Overall:
Bell is a little messed up for a guy. What kind of guy would go into a monster infested dungeon hoping to pick up a woman? That's just ludicrous! Not to mention that Bell is also a novice adventurer who shouldn't be in that deep in the dungeon anyway.
