Before I read the Wikipedia part that you linked I was about to argue... But it literally mentions Isekai and the literal translation for it. Really, the only part I still disagree with is the assertion of a "quest." If all Isekai manga are quests (or quest related) then all life is a quest (or...

I get the feeling that the hero was "chosen" for reasons others than pure physical/magic strength. We don't know the history of the world yet so if the hero exists purely to defeat the demon lord, regardless of how they are interacting with humans, then previous heroes being defeated by pure...

It seems some people are forgetting the very plot of the manga and the very reason why he was "willing" to be part of this whole "get kicked out of the hero party in 100 worlds" in the first place. He literally says it this chapter: he wants to go home. Also, did they just casually say that...

Yeah, there are effectively three types of slavery in manga: indentured servants -to- (basically) adoption; mind control; race/species based slavery that is the equivalent of American slavery... The first one is ok, they can generally get out of it by working or being freed by their owner, or...

To be fair if they are a "reclusive" school: no outside interaction, then @Chucholain is most likely correct. Because she would be unable to provide information, updates or input for the business it would likely stagnate - at bare minimum even if "stagnation" is the lack of "advancement". On the...

Technically to add a second/third dimension to sound detected (above/below instead of side/side and front/back) they would only need a third ear, not an additional two. Two points allows for a plane (two dimensions) three points for "space" (three dimensions). If you want to get really technical...

I mean, to be fair, knowing what something is and how to make it doesn't require knowledge of the consequences that thing brought. Certainly Myne had the ability to research the consequences of the printing press, and most certainly did learn of some of even only through osmosis, but she is so...

Right. Part of the reason I pointed it out was because I believed that people were making the mistake of taking this at face value, even though she literally says a few pages before that they are "distant" relatives. It's part of the problem with the "must translate everything; must not leave...

As @jhs_reika said, but it may also be a difference in "cuisine" and available (or understood) resources. If they either don't know how to make vegetables taste good, or only have the ability to grow a very limited (and bitter) set of vegetables it would explain this. What would also explain...

Well, bless me, it was a hell of a lot easier to find than I thought. (Second/Third page of my "completed" follows) Heroic Chronicles of the Three Continents It was within the last five(?) chapters. With regards to publishers, I'm not sure I can call that purely a "publisher" issue. It may be a...

Sadly it doesn't save... I can certainly see that from a racist society... Or, really, a species-ist society... (But "species" implies that they can't breed with humans, etc, and produce offspring that can also breed - see donkey/horse, lion/tiger, etc). While I do certainly understand your...

Sigh. Sometimes I really hate typing comments on my phone. I just lost a good amount of time writing a response because it "unloaded" this tab. In a nutshell: yes. I don't really like "demi" because it implies "lesser". I prefer "meta" because it implies "more than" or "in addition to". And...

I mean, you aren't wrong. To memory I have only seen one instance of "thousands of people fighting and 0 deaths or injuries" that was even remotely believable, and it wasn't 0 injury or deaths. I can't remember the exact name but something like: War of the three Continents (MC reincarnates as an...

Effectively, yes, barrier moves with her... Or it was "momentarily" effective, but that was enough to stop her from leaving to the Astral plane, which allowed the MC to control her. Hard to say really. It could even be that they placed the barrier around the entire house, but for the sake of...

I was mostly replying to everyone who replied to Alcion. I wasn't disagreeing with you, and my post was (intended to be) focused on what could be done in their world as well. I phrased it the way I did because including "other examples," or so, is helpful when one is talking about fiction...

Certainly I understand that. While I can appreciate that there are some religions that (effectively if not literally) revolve around "forgiveness" (not saying Japan follows one or more, just making a point) I still believe that threats that cannot have their ability to be "threats" stripped...

In a world where humans can do things that cannot be done by humans of this world it is fairly safe to assume that they use magic of some form to do so (in this case mana). Most of the fighting/strength that the people of this world display are beyond what normal humans can do, or at least those...

Realistically I can't claim in any way that I know the statistics of manga trends. I have no real reason to and I have a feeling that any research done would be exclusively in Japanese, so I wouldn't understand it anyway. I also can't realistically claim to know Japanese culture beyond what I...

Firstly, he didn't get to finish his sentence so he might not have been saying to not "kill" them (perhaps "don't attack without backup?) but your assumption is most likely correct. Secondly, if he was going to tell them to "not kill" then the one thing that you have to remember is that this is...

Honestly I thought that this would be one of those manga that continues the miscommunication, missed opportunities, mistakes, etc until the very end of the manga. So I was surprised when he actually proposed instead of waiting (or forgetting)... however, as other"s have pointed out, the trope...
