Description
After dying in a traffic accident, I find myself standing near an unfamiliar lake. My body won't move, I can't hear my voice, and when I try to shout in confusion, words that I never expected come out!"Get one free with a winner."-it seems I've turned into a vending machine...! I can only do what actual vending machines can. It's impossible to move by myself, and there's no way for me to have any meaningful conversation-how am I going to survive some fantasy world's dungeon like this?! Read more

Welp, here is another... interesting... LN concept. I say that a lot these days, huh? But I promised myself I wasn't going to go off on tangents about how strange light novel concepts can be. So here we go. This one has a familiar start. The main character dies and is reborn in another world. Yes, it's an *isekai*. But this one is kinda different on multiple levels. First off, the fact that the protagonist is reborn as a vending machine. You have that right, he is a vending machine in another world. And the author takes this relatively seriously as a premise too. You see, our hero, who is eventually named "Boxxo" by the other characters, can only (well, *mostly*) do what a vending machine can do. He can only dispense items and his speech is limited to such phrases as "Welcome", "Too Bad", so on. That is it. There are no easy outs here. No easy ways to solve problems his problems by himself. It's only through the patience of others, and the fact that Boxxo can give out food and other items unknown to the folks in this medieval-style world that things go well enough for him as they do. Oh, and he can only give out and sell those items he bought at one point in his life on earth. So this leads us to another cool things that I liked, which is that Boxxo is not OP. The author actually stated in the Afterword that he wanted to write a book that did *not* have an over-powered hero. If anything, it is some of the other characters who are OP. While our hero can do some cool things with the products he can sell, he is essentially nearly helpless, and dependent on the kindness of others. The fact that the author not just created this absurd premise, but actually *stuck to it* in the world-building is impressive, and one of the biggest reasons I would recommend the book. The other, of course, are the rest of the characters. Lammis, the main heroine is cool. She is clumsy and adorable, yet an absolute badass when given the right aid and patience. And she is so nice and sweet. The other characters, from Director Bear, to the Menagerie of Fools, and Hulemy, among others, are cool and funny. I can't say more names without taking up a lot of room in this review. For those looking for a deep plot, or sexy harems, this isn't it - so far. But if you want a funny and sweet story, not to mention one where the author takes his premise seriously (in this case a ridiculous one), and makes it work, this is for you. Also, if you want a non-OP hero, this is for you. I hope the formula he is using doesn't change too much. Though the plot likely will bring some changes, this is a good story and one I really enjoyed. Only caution is for some risqué moments at two different points because of past life thoughts and some other characters' actions. Also, there is a mention of rape, but it doesn't happen, given the very light-hearted feel of the story. But nothing goes too far beyond PG levels. Have fun reading. Rating: 5/5 Stars. Especially good in that the author takes the premise seriously and works from it.

I'm giving 5 just from how unexpected this was. Originally I was only interested in getting a quick laugh from what sounded like a pretty funny premise. I was thinking I'd get a generic fantasy world with forgettable characters and countless cliches which would ultimately amount to a series that I'd not return to, though from the beginning I was surprised that they took the premise at least semi- seriously. The story is told from the perspective of 'Boxxo' a human turned vending machine after being killed in an accident, but he can't talk. The writer handles this really well, since the story is told in first person, but you're given info about this world through him being in earshot of the right conversations, or being talked to by 'customers' which might sound forced but as I said it's written in a way that you would hardly think about it. Another strong point is the characters, obviously there's our narrator, but our leading lady (Lammis) is very interesting. She's introduced as clumsy and if you're familiar with anime/manga/light novels I know, you just had an image pop into your head, but since most of the narrator's time is spent interacting with her, she gets fleshed out really well and her relationship with Boxxo (in spite of his inability to communicate properly) is a rather fun one to follow, also there's very little 'fan service' moments, at least in this volume which is nice, and gives a nice chance to really know the characters outside of what they look like. As I said this was a very pleasant surprise and if the second book upholds the quality of this one, this might be a series I'd love to see through to the end.

So far, just from this first volume, this book is shaping up to be an entertaining read for those who want an isekai story that breaks with the formula a bit--most importantly by making the main character an inanimate object who cannot move around on his own or even communicate freely with those around him. The main character is, funnily enough, one of the most endearingly rational and human characters I've read in these kinds of stories--and he isn't technically human! He tries to find ways to work around his limitations and help those around him when they need it because he's a good-natured sort, and finds clever ways to fight against his antagonists. On paper, it's a goofy concept that shouldn't work, but does so remarkably well. I wholeheartedly recommend this to anyone looking for a good, light-hearted bit of comedy and action who doesn't mind the occasional diversion to explain things, or a main character who can only talk in pre-programmed vending machine catch-phrases (thankfully, his internal monologues are unrestricted).

This book was surprisingly good, even though it has such a ridiculous, and frankly stupid premise. The main character, as you can probably guess, is turned into a vending machine in another world. It doesn't sound like you can come up with a good story surrounding that premise, but listening to his day-to-day struggles of trying to make money, which is literally his life blood, is somehow compelling enough to make you keep reading. And the adventures he goes on with his friends and how he helps them out is also very interesting. I can't give this 5 stars because the story does have some problems. For instance a lot of the dialogue is extremely expositional and clunky. And somehow, even though he's a freaking vending machine, it still has harem story elements in it. Also, the way he keeps finding himself in the exact situations in which he and only he can help, is awkward story telling, and the tracks somewhat from the plot. However, given all these problems, the novel itself is still an enjoyable read. It's very light-hearted and wacky and can be somewhat warm and fuzzy at different times as well.
