    Isekai Nonbiri Nouka - Ch. 244 - Spears for the Angels (1)

    If you really can't understand how the design of a scythe shortens the reach, then I really don't know how else to explain it for you, but I'll try. Let's take a quarterstaff as our baseline this time, since it's the weapon all polearms are built on; in this case, its length doesn't matter. If...

    Isekai Nonbiri Nouka - Ch. 244 - Spears for the Angels (1)

    The TL;DR is you have to reach past your opponent to actually strike them with a scythe compared to a regular polearm. As to the full explanation, this will be a bit long, so sorry in advance (and I deeply apologize if any of it comes off as condescending, that's not my intent). I don't know...

    Isekai Nonbiri Nouka - Ch. 244 - Spears for the Angels (1)

    Not really. Scythes make incredibly poor weapons, even when purpose built as one; your reach is about 1.5 times shorter than a polearm with a similarly sized blade (because the blade is perpendicular and the edge is on the inner curve), so it requires significantly more motion and exaggerated...

    Homeland Dropout: The Time I Was Reincarnated as the Fourth Enchanter in the Entire World - Vol. 2 Ch. 10 - What does Esther think of the inside fact…

    Little late, but I didn't realize this had been updated and have been re-reading. Anyway. No, they have no blood relation: Jink's parents are the King of Rosalta and the unnamed Chancellor's daughter, while Esther's parents are Gordon Nonland and an unnamed concubine. Esther's mostly just...

    Isekai Nonbiri Nouka - Ch. 243 - Death Ball (3)

    It kinda makes sense, in a way, since spiders liquefy their prey's juices and slurp it up like a slushy; potato salad (or mashed potatoes, which is what it more closely resembles with the simplified art style) is closer to their normal fare than baked potatoes or french fries.

    The World's Fastest Level Up! - Ch. 37

    Bruh. As much as I enjoy the story, I can't with these numbers anymore. Levels don't mean a fucking thing when you're talking 5-6 digits, like some shitty Korean MMO. Also, why the hell was she panicking when she literally one shot the thing in an instant? With that kind of speed and power, she...

    Houkago no Idol ni wa Himitsu ga aru - Ch. 43 - Kuromiya-san and admiration

    Oh, hey, a losing heroine who actually realizes why she lost without going through the whole, painful struggle just to get rejected. Neat.

    Akuyaku Reijo no Ani ni Tensei Shimashita - Vol. 2 Ch. 12

    A worrying number of women are willing to overlook things like that in the name of "I can fix him" (and, for the record, a "worrying number", to me, is anything more than zero in this context).

    Kaette Kudasai! Akutsu-san - Ch. 185

    Akutsu, getting ready to ride to war.

    Sentai Daishikkaku - Ch. 152 - Footsoldier on the Run, Part 8

    Oh, shit, it's Blue Gender all over again.

    Bocchi Jieikan no Isekai Funsenki - Vol. 4 Ch. 25 - Curtis O'Brien I

    You're assuming the goddess is a benevolent one. It's entirely possible she's a bored, petulant child who's summoning reincarnators on opposite sides to use them in a chess match for her entertainment. And is just really good at appearing benevolent.

    Mikadono Sanshimai wa Angai, Choroi. - Ch. 127 - Trial dating.

    He'd probably turn out like Kouta.

    Sokushi Cheat ga Saikyou Sugite, Isekai no Yatsura ga Marude Aite ni Naranai n desu ga - Vol. 8 Ch. 36 - Cooperative Alliance

    Another fun fact about the "second" (mostly applicable towards execution via seppuku): it was considered both a mark of skill and respectful to the deceased and the audience to cut through just enough of the neck to leave the head hanging by a flap of skin. After all, it's rather garish to send...

    Boku wa Isekai de Fuyo Mahou to Shoukan Mahou wo Tenbin ni Kakeru - Vol. 1 Ch. 5 - The Reason We Failed

    In case you forgot: when they level up and get sent to the white room, time freezes until they leave, so (as of now) they have literal infinite time to plan their next move and discuss their relationship.

    A Parallel World With a 1:39 Male to Female Ratio Is Unexpectedly Normal 【R18】 - Ch. 35 - Akane Mama, Who Forces Her Son to Play the Classmate Role

    I think "dodged it", as in dodging the question, would make more sense in this context, since he's using a creampie to get out of answering her question of whether or not she's better than his other classmates.

    Ore ni wa Kono Kuragari ga Kokochiyo Katta: Zetsubou kara Hajimaru Isekai Seikatsu, Kami no Kimagure de Kyousei Haishinchuu - Vol. 3 Ch. 16

    It wasn't explicitly mentioned, but you can see the same shadow (minus the hat) on page 27 of Chapter 2 in the middle panel, right after the same burning monkey from this chapter, so it was at least hinted at.

    Saijo no Osewa Takane no Hana-darakena Meimon-kou de, Gakuin Ichi no Ojou-sama (Seikatsu Nouryoku Kaimu) wo Kagenagara Osewa suru Koto ni Narimashita…

    @asphyxiav2 Regarding the whole "giving salt to my enemy" thing, the TL;DR is that it means to help a rival/opponent/enemy and comes from a story about Uesugi Kenshin and Takeda Shingen during the Warring States era of Japan; the two had a very famous rivalry and they reportedly highly respected...

    Tensei ni Hakobijin no Isekai Kouryakuhou - Ch. 14

    He's also more than willing to take the opportunity to grab a handful of hopes and dreams.
