If you were to take one of those decade long soap operas, pick a random episode, and say this is the start of the story then watch two in universe weeks worth of episodes then say this is the end of story you would get this manga/novel. Just kind of starts randomly then ditches you after it...

Been so long since we saw Faust that when he showed up I thought it was someone else. Very good emotional chapter. Really confirmed why I felt attached to Helga right away. She was the only character presented as purely being on Faust's side. Basically every other character of note is shown as...

If you're the Goddess, why would you let a power that specifically and exclusively targets people with your Blessing exist? Surely that would require the person to either be on the level of a god or received the ability from a comparable entity.

Author knew what they were doing with the milk comment

It is kinda funny considering her introduction that Yuri came from behind and somehow took the First Wife position.

This doesn't really portray the Baron as stubborn but more narrowminded and stupid. Sure not reopening the mine makes sense, that costs him money that he won't get back. There's no real reason to not let the MC into the abandoned mine though. Charge him an entry fee, limit the amount of time he...

I don't know I think the manga was good, but it's totally unsatisfying and I have no real attachment to it. It's just kind of a nothing story, like breathing. Just there one moment and gone the next. Nothing really happened, it has nothing to say about medieval life, the aristocracy, the church...

I mean the original trend for the OP character that gets kicked out is that they go on to be picked up by people that also kind of exploit them but are just nicer about it. Effectively they just hop to a similar situation to what they were in so they only have a better life because the new...

Unbreakable Barrier Man's barrier breaks so hard the story got cancelled.

Can we stop coming back to this Deer country for a bit? I need a break from them. Lynos saying he advised the Posehai to repent when they are magic slaves that can't disobey his orders is hilarious. Total misrepresentation of the situation. They are slaves and don't have a choice in the matter...

I always hate these dumb narration bubbles where they "and so our heroes go on to become the greatest ever" like what a crock of shit. Totally uninteresting and comes off as an unconfident writer pleading with readers that yes these idiots will in fact become great please keep reading.

There is no indication that he has suddenly changed his immediate goal upon meeting the Gold Spirit. He just says in passing about her being accepted. Sure whatever he can accept her harassing him, but why even bother with the laborer job? It's a bad job that takes a lot of time and doesn't pay...

I think the author is terrible at communicating anything to the reader. Univas's goals and actual actions are often at odds but I feel like this is particularly egregious. The only reason he was going to the adventurer guild was to get a job to make some quick money to buy food. Ignore that they...

Why is the Merchant acting like a loser suddenly? Like having any expectations for her is bad. She just scared of dying now or what? People have largely been turning on telepaths and shapeshifters in the west because of Marvel. Marvel near exclusively portrays anyone with that power set as...

It sure does feel like we skipped a big chunk of story between the Saintess Commotion and the Graduation party. Suddenly all the women that were annoyed by Aini are just cool with her thanks to offscreen development I guess.
