## My Thoughts on I Want To Be A Swordsman Even As A Girl "I Want To Be A Swordsman Even As A Girl" immediately grabbed my attention with its promise of adventure, fantasy, and a touch of yuri. The concept alone – a girl striving for swordsmanship in a world of magic and steel – is undeniably appealing. I dove in hoping for a fun, lighthearted read. ### First Impressions The initial chapters definitely deliver on the lighthearted feel. There's a certain charm to the protagonist's determination, and the world-building hints at a rich tapestry of sword techniques and magical possibilities. The yuri undertones are present, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the narrative. ### What Works Well The core concept of a girl dedicated to becoming a swordsman in a world that might expect something different from her is compelling. I found myself rooting for her ambition and curious to see how she navigates the challenges ahead. The initial world-building also shows promise, with hints of interesting sword techniques and magical systems. If the story continues to build upon this foundation, it has the potential to become a truly captivating read. ### Areas of Concern Unfortunately, I have to address a significant stumbling block: the translation. While the story's premise is engaging, the execution suffers from awkward phrasing and sentences that require a significant amount of mental gymnastics to decipher. It's a shame because it detracts from the overall enjoyment and makes it difficult to fully immerse myself in the world and the characters. I found myself spending more time trying to understand the sentences than actually enjoying the story, which is a real barrier to entry. This is a critical area that needs improvement, as it significantly impacts the reading experience. ### Final Verdict "I Want To Be A Swordsman Even As A Girl" has a lot of potential. The premise is engaging, the characters are likeable, and the world-building shows promise. However, the current state of the translation is a major drawback. If the translation quality improves, I believe this could become a highly enjoyable read. As it stands, it's a bit of a struggle to fully appreciate the story. I'm cautiously optimistic and hope to see improvements in future chapters.
