Katainaka no Ossan, Kensei ni Naru ~Tada no Inaka no Kenjutsu Shihan Datta noni, Taisei Shita Deshi-tachi ga Ore wo Hottekurenai Ken~ - Vol. 7 Ch. 32…

[amaidolce]

Appears for only one panel and already has so much aura holy shit.

 

[Kendrakirai]

First, unrelated to manga. The anime is okay, but after reading the manga i can't help but have a slightly higher expectation and sadly it didn't deliver on the ep3, ep1 was quite decent and enjoyable.

Now into the manga, holy shit. What a cool fight from old man Beryl fighting against the vice principal, probably the 2nd strongest magician so far. The realization and "enlightment" after being told that his sword can cut magic is super chill, he immediately change how he is fighting against a mage after one of the disadvantage fighting against mage is gone.

The vice principal had a sad past with his student that want to combine sword and magic but unfortunately something happened to him making the vice Principal really against with sword, thankfully with Ficelle comes to the mage squad and having old man Beryl won the fight now the vice Principal want to learn sword too which is kinda funny but really awesome.

And the last panel, that shadow definitely the sword saint as the mentioned on first panel. Shit is going to be fire next chapter, Old man Beryl vs the Shadow of Sword Saint.

Something to remember about anime adaptations is that if the manga is already an adaptation, they'll almost never work from that, it'll be from the most original source. In this case, probably a light novel. So don't get too hopeful that everything in the manga will square up with the anime.

 

[Kendrakirai]

The anime isn't as good... I still couldn't fathom the reason they decided to adapt the light novels, when the series' appeal and sales mostly come from the manga. Atleast from what I could recall.

In any case, good ass chapter. Beryl's awakening his battle-drunkeness very clearly now. It wasn't this prominent before when he fought against the loli mage back in early chapters.

Anime adaptations like with this are to advertise the LNs. Also it's just easier to adapt the original thing than have to go through the original creator and publisher and those of the manga adaptation. Fewer people need to clear things, fewer people get cuts of the money.

Imagine if its his gramps who he never beat once or himself lol

 

[shinjikun10]

aomine ahh "the only one that can beat me is me" type shit

 

[Goodmeme]

"Come at me with killing intent. Also, your new sword can cut through my magic."

This old wizard rules, his reason for opposing spellswording is easy to understand and he was able to adjust his opinion after learning new information. He's best girl so far.

The Sword Saint vs The Sword Saint

All right mirror match, here we go

 

[nicklablue]

This plot seems fun

Apothecary Diaries seems to adapt mostly from the manga, except season 3 if it comes early.

There's two versions of manga for that one, too. There's a lot about that series that's a bit weird.

 

[Vergift]

It seems the only thing who can defeat a swordman on Beryl's caliber is another swordman. No monster could hope to defeat him.

 

[Vergift]

I couldnt wait so I bought the novel. And while it’s deviated from the original source, this is one of the few rare occasions that the manga adaptation is (in my humble opinion) more preferable. Fine, I’ll wait.

Everyone here are agree that the manga is better than the LN. The series got a sale boost and ended up with anime adaptation is also because the manga fix many things in the LN.

 

[Vergift]

I guess it's the sword saint

There's only one person that Beryl cannot defeat, and that is...

Spoiler: LN Spoiler-ish

His father.

Well, the LN would contest that

 

[roooc]

I've heard that manga changed how some things happened in the ln so it might be that the manga is the one that's changed

perhaps, but the difference is the manga actually does a good job of conveying feelings and emotions. im not saying this one's a literary bastion, but it's a lot better than the anime, which semingly throws out any interesting action or agency in favour of expediency. Similarly frustrating there's little focus or detail on the swordplay in most parts so far. And they made the fights worse simply in choreography (not to mention how they're actually animated, which is disappointing. But again, not super surprised that this show doesnt have a huge budget, the choreo being changed is my frustration.)

 

[nonexistent696969]

that's probably himself

 

[Lalo200399]

Any news about the hiatus of the raw manga?

 

[Yoyojor]

I watched the anime and I just cant get myself to like it because the manga's art during the fighting is too good

 

[SpacelessRex]

Oh my god! That shadowy figure in 99% of detective content (mangas, tv shows, etc.) came out!

 

[SpacelessRex]

Also a quick notice for everyone: There is a colored version of this manga out now! I personally found up to chapter 5 on the WEBTOONS app but I’m sure you could find more elsewhere.
Sorry if this was already known I’m not the brightest.



Side note: The colored version is meh, this manga doesn’t feel like it should be in color, it’s better in black and white.
