Not gonna lie, the full page of grown ass man cheeks caught me off gaurd.

Talk about the story? About the resolution of a plot thread that's been hinted at since the very beginning?
Naaah.

Everyone's here for the buff man butt.

 

[docterderp]

Nice butt.

 

[January]

Astra's cheeks stole the show
everyone is just commenting about his butt

 

[dethduck]

I have no idea what's going on anymore.

 

[imadoathing]

that ass cast oblivion on the rest of the story

... fanservice manservice aside ...

This setting feels exhausting. It's good, not reasonable.

Even if this world doesn't have any strict cause for power corrupting, it always does. Even meteor magic is mutative but wild, not evil. Yet there's some Faustian backlash that sometimes comes out of nowhere and just breaks people. It worked back in the post-impact era, as a survival story where ambition felt cursed, but I'm a bit tired of the trope by now.

I really don't see how Atreyu and Artica had to suddenly snap and decide mass murder was the best option. Atreyu steered it and still failed his true objective. And Arctica did resist, but of course her resolution wasn't permanent and it's up to some interlopers to butt in. The thematically consistent but unsound corruption is fine as a fairy tale, but it's still forced as hell. An evil airship spirit or cursed crystal doesn't resolve the trend.

To be fair though, a civ with nearly any magic system that doesn't have some kind of invisible wall preventing development (and locking+limiting high technology to big rare things) would go space age within a thousand years. I just prefer some reason for the wall or metal-themed 🤘 corruption or whatever. (Can you imagine 1% of the airship's generated force put into construction equipment? Renaissance.)

KMKY takes place far in the distant past according to the author

[mongol13]

Christ, this arc takes so long I actually stopped waiting for some meaningful plot resolution...

 

[Simpleton]

Christ, this arc takes so long I actually stopped waiting for some meaningful plot resolution...

And there's 20 chapters to go, so there will have to be even more over the top things happening.
