Just got done with the first episode of Antimagic Academy and the heroine is very repulsive even by tsundere standards ...

A modern setting where the protagonists main weapon is a sword ?! Just how far is the author willing to push my suspension of disbelief ?

I won't drop this but we'll see soon enough if this holds up to what LN readers are promising ...

Yeesh, LN writers need to layoff on doing similar introductions to get better first impressions in the future ...

To be fair, in Lance N' Masques, the MC fights with a lance in a modern setting. It definitely pushes reality a bit, although seeing people respond with disbelief to the MC himself in Lance N' Masques helped solidfy that even for that setting, wandering around with a lance wasn't natural.

I think a major problem with a lot of fantasy based light novels though is that the writer tends to only go in with a basic idea, and for reference on how to start their story, they refer to other similar light novels. It just kind of creates a cycle of similar and somewhat lacking openings, which is certainly disappointing.
