@RonBWL I was actually thinking about that. If this was One Punch Man, the fight would've dragged on for even longer. OPM's entire point is to focus on its side characters while the MC is away, after all. Either way, it goes both ways. If you have a character that trivializes the problem that...

Feels like a waste of a chapter, tbh. A lot of chitter-chatter about not being able to resist the miasma, fighting back against the miasma, "hold on not so fast, I have super-miasma!", etc... Yeah, we get it, it's a losing battle.

@jackty89 If he wants wealth and power, he doesn't need a lot to run on, I agree with that. But, if all he has to say is: "My brother backstabbed me in the past, which is why I'm gonna kill you all 40 years later" -- it's stupid and makes no sense what so ever, and has absolutely no relationship...

@Pandawanka Let's just simplify what I said earlier... "This is a game about Pokemons, and some guy just said: "Pokemons can go fuck themselves!"" That's off-kilter no matter how you look at it.

@jackty89 Did you even read what you sent yourself...? It wasn't even remotely close to being that simple. The Pig War was an escalation of existing tensions between two factions, and the death of the pig was merely a catalyst, an excuse, to condemn the other side. Most of the cases in that...

So...This is a story, about a game, which exclusively markets itself to people who love dolls, and the 1st encounter the MC has in the game, is with a guy who says: "who gives a fuck about dolls"? Well, this was a fast drop.

@jackty89 Twas a nice read, but I don't see the relation.

Guys, ya'know, when someone writes a really dumb villain, it makes it really easy for the MC to make "a snappy and accurate comeback". There's nothing intelligent here, just generic low-hanging-fruit wuxia nonsense.

I mean, unless the series is going to end, it should be.

@pingustrategist It should be more valuable to keep her around for the *other* valuables. She knows where everything is stashed, and has free access.

"He might become more like his grandfather than his father..." H'yep.

@flannan

Yep. Twas pretty obvious she wouldn't be killed off. Sad. Shame.

@flannan @Trezcast The truly weird thing about the "naive isekai Jap protagonist", is that a Japanese author writes them like that, while obviously knowing their "innocence will get them in trouble". I.E: A Japanese person is aware their MC is being foolish, for basically being "Japanese". And...

Gotta agree with some of the rants about the MC, here (being an idiot). But tbh, I pretty much skim through any isekai-manga. I advise ya'll to just do the same. If it's dumb, but you can still enjoy it, just browse through it.

@HallowedDeep Google "self immolation protest", ffs dude it was mentioned in the story itself.

Out of all the douchebaggery in this story, the one that rubbed me the worst was that classmate. The fact that he kept blabbering about "muh harem" was just begging for someone to kick-dive him in the face. Only a delusional idiot would unironically say "my harem", so I guess well done on part...

I can't recall what's in Henan, so I am most likely wrong, but -- INB4 granny takes Noh to the heavenly-demon-cult. lel. (they were, essentially, the ones who opened up his veins, or whatever that gramps did to him was.)

I was thinking of this manga this morning, and felt like I had to write these thoughts somewhere... This manga started out so nitty-gritty, a slap to the face and very sincere. It worked with its motifs, and it established its reality pretty well as a solemn manga. And then, arc after arc, it...

@Ace435 I'm from the middle-east, I have humus & tahini every single day...And I cannot even begin to imagine that I'd ever project that into stories. It's as you say, if I read into it right: it's on a cultural level, not a personal one.
