Summary
Yeld, an orc sick of life in his dark-fantasy realm, decides to move to Tokyo and become a comics editor. One day, he’s visited by a full-time armored swordswoman, part-time aspiring manga artist—one who gets practically suicidal whenever her work gets rejected! Between her, a tentacle monster summoned as an assistant, and a slime girl with all kinds of helpful manga tools, there’s never been a stranger pack of creators! It’s the most realistic (?) depiction of the manga industry yet!

TLDR: Don't bother. Somewhat "original" reverse isekai comedy with really poor execution.

Story: I was really intrigued and interested by reading it's title and premise but it went downhill only after that. The story just dragged painfully after establishing itself. Chapters are short but felt so long and drawn to the point it's gets boring really quick. This type of stories live or die by their comedy and this one's just ain't gonna survive in my radar. Do you see that image on MAL? yes that's the whole story and joke. Let's just sexually objectify this Female Knight for shits and giggles. Don't get me wrong i like me some dirty adult humor but this one's really just childishly stupid.

Art: As goes with series like this Art is Mediocre but the only shinning part of this Manga. As long it's not unbearable i don't care if ain't 10/10 Masterpiece. While i can argue that Art should be or is the main factor contributing for the jokes and punchline in a Comedy Manga or Anime in general but i digress. so No complaints in Art but it doesn't help the mess this is.

Character: Setting is unique so for it to work Characters are just plain stupid and given not much forethought. Both Orc and Female Knight felt like filler side characters that are shove to main panels somehow but were not given instructions how to act like one. i couldn't care less whether they succeed or accomplish something nor do they look like care but wait Tiddies that should mean something. In short dreadful characters.

Enjoyment: Sigh.. The only redeeming factor for me which cancels out my other points in other departments is Enjoyment and It had NONE for me. sure watching someone getting suddenly naked might be some different kind of enjoyment but that's just you enjoying from your nether-realms and that's not why one should even pick-up a book, what are these the dark times. To say it bluntly didn't enjoyed it.

Overall: The Premise was really good which could honestly have gone many different routes given the genre it has but all is just for naught. The Execution just killed it for me. You'll have much better time playing with yourself than reading this tbh as it feels like a failed handjob that's just dragging on without reaching the climax.
