Hm, the story seems to be wrapping up, but I wonder how many chapters are left? Well, at least I hope it's wrapping up. I much prefer isekai that neatly come to a close once they've told the story they came to tell, rather than those that drag on for an eternity without anything actually happening.

@Dragou Honestly, while the saintess' personality shift is way too sudden, that's hardly exclusive to her. Everyone's characterization is all over the place. The MC is the worst offender imo. I suspect it's a symptom of having so few chapters to get the story across. After all, we only have...

Whenever I see this manga, I can never shake the feeling that something is just off about the art, but I can't put my finger on what specifically. It's not like it's bad art. I'd even say the art goes above and beyond by isekai manga standards. It's like the lines are too pristine, too clean...

@Invader_Retro Y'know what, that's fair. I was talking crap about things I didn't have enough information about, and it shows. I'm not even particularly bothered by the current situation, so I'm not sure why I felt the need to be so confrontational about this. Anyway, that's my bad. I spoke...

I was originally making a lot of claims that I didn't have enough evidence or motivation to back up, but I don't know how to delete a post, so I'm leaving this in its place.

This series' art and designs have never been... well... good, but I really can't keep a straight face when I see that dumb little red crown with the goofy cartoon skull. It looks like something he pulled out of a pack of Christmas crackers.

@ixsaz Oh no, I wasn't saying that as a jab at Itegaki. I just genuinely didn't know it was supposedly a weekly manga. I've seen "Baki Dou is on break this week" at the end of so many issues that I've accepted that it doesn't have a consistent release schedule, and by extension I never thought...

Wait... Is Baki Dou a weekly series? It skips so many weeks I assumed it was monthly.

I'm genuinely confused why this keeps happening. If you're translating a work from one language into another, you're assuming that your audience are people who can't understand the original language. So if you know your audience would want to see the whole story, and you know they have no means...

@412001 Well, I mean, there's nobody alive now who could say exactly how things were in the time period this setting is based on. Regardless, it's worth mentioning that this was a time where arranged marriages were considered the norm. It's hard to imagine people who readily sell their children...

@pimentinha112 I get that. It just still feels a bit dishonest to me. Like they just threw that detail in there in order to rake in the isekai crowd without having to exert much effort doing anything with the isekai premise. Then again, that description also fits Knight's & Magic to a T, and I...

@jebjordan fair enough I guess. It's still weird from a writing perspective, but I guess I can't say it doesn't make any sense in-universe.

Did we go back a few dozen chapters and I just didn't notice? All of this feels like it should have happened ages ago. I mean, he defeated the strongest cultivator on the planet and fought off cultivators from another dimension. You can't just jump straight from that to settling relatively petty...

@Izayoi98 That's what I thought too, but when he started talking about jet coasters, I took another look at the first chapter. He actually came from Earth before being summoned, being reincarnated, and reincarnated again. The fact that I'm not the only one who forgot that happened just goes to...

This is one of the fantasy series that really has no place being an isekai. If it's this easy to just forget that the MC came from another world for 20 whole chapters, then there's no point in giving him that backstory in the first place. You could take that detail out without changing a single...

What's this? A party event with people from the MC's old life who look down on the MC for ambiguous reasons where the conversation awkwardly shifts to grubbing for status? Where ever have I seen this pattern before? Well, maybe that's a bit unfair. It's not like I read this for revolutionary...

The fact that there hasn't been any outright confirmation that the series is ending, despite nearly every loose end being tied up, has me concerned. They're at a good stopping point, and the last thing I'd want would be for them to ruin that by trying to artificially extend the plot.

Huh, I came into this story expecting fantastic character designs and nothing else. The chapter count scared me away at first, given that ecchi series grow stale pretty quick. It was exactly the kind of brainless "technically not hentai" trash I was expecting, but oddly, I didn't mind. Once I...

@Kampfarsch, to be fair, he has show that he's fully willing an able to mutilate kids if he thinks they're guilty in their own right. So he's either just blatantly contradicting himself, or the reason he's giving them the pass this time isn't because they're kids, but because they technically...

I get that the limits of his magic are left deliberately vague, but what have we seen him do with it so far? He can use it to raise zombies, control people's movements, summon ice/stone spikes, survive lethal wounds, create barriers, make other people unkillable, reverse projectiles launched at...
