    Itai no wa Iya nanode Bougyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu.

    Because crummy as it is (even for Japanese trying to write English) it is the official name: https://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2018/12/06-1/anime-adaptation-of-light-novel-all-points-are-divided-to-vit-because-a-painful-one-isnt-liked-in-the-works

    Itai no wa Iya nanode Bougyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu - Vol. 2 Ch. 12.2

    The story is proceeding just as planned by the author. First everyone hates Maple for being too OP, but between those targeted nerfs and this monster the sympathy is again in her court. Sympathy management is a vital skill if you want to write a story about an OP character that doesn't feel...

    She does get a skill that has her sitting down, later. She got partially around the "having to stop" bit, though 😀 Are you kidding? They've just installed Defence Penetration skills just for Maple, and while I'm spoiling things a bit this bird with its criminally high attack (such that even...

    Itai no wa Iya nanode Bougyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu.

    Well, it does what Maple needs it to do, so I think it actually is working, but the author hadn't thought through the descriptive text for this part.

    Itai no wa Iya nanode Bougyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu - Vol. 2 Ch. 8

    She figured, even before they nerfed it, that maybe she doesn't want her shield eating everything every time. = I really like the scene where the lizard shattered itself on Maple. It shows the game is using naturalistic modeling instead of simplistic comparisons of values for its damage...

    Itai no wa Iya nanode Bougyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu - Vol. 2 Ch. 7

    This is a masterstroke on the part of the author. In one stroke, the commentary has changed from "OMG, what a broken game" and "Maple, too OP, too lucky, too Mary Sue" to sympathizing with Maple. And feeling for the characters is what drives this category of story. 😀 Oh, and PS = Player Skill.

    Itai no wa Iya nanode Bougyo-Ryoku ni Kyokufuri Shitai to Omoimasu - Vol. 1 Ch. 5

    I can understand where the unhappiness with Sally comes from, and agree that if she was the protagonist, she'd have been disgusting. But the two of them together with Sally as the lancer actually takes away the disgusting bits from each other. The author didn't have a lot of options, anyway. It...
