Yeah I mean the question has always been how close are we going to hew to history though, lol, Yukimura has been perfectly happy to diverge from the records where it suits him.

Yeah, in previous chapters Einar himself was - before the chaos and terror of battle set in - fully aware that he's actively choosing war here, not being immutably forced into it. Einar could just leave. Even if the rest of the colonists couldn't be convinced, Einar has the power to choose for...

Not that there had been much doubt for a while, but - seems pretty clear by now that the colony is going to fail. I don't see how either side will find the stomach for sustained diplomacy after the casualties they've taken in this battle, and as long as Thorfinn draws breath, he will do whatever...

nods solemnly ah, yes, yuri

"Looks like they have no idea how to assault a fort!" - Guy who's about to find out he has no idea how to defend his fort.

Can you even pay to read them? I can read Japanese well enough to just buy the JP volume releases so it's not a huge problem for me, and I wouldn't pay for AI translation even if I could, but it's kind of a moot point because I haven't found any obvious option to buy chapters on Comic Growl even...

Setting aside all the (justified!) complaints about Comic Growl's methods It's interesting to me that we're really hammering on this notion that Elias isn't really a Mage - he's a fae who's simply playing the role. I suspect this is going to circle back as evidence to justify his anxieties that...

"O Wise Prophet, have you considered that you might just have bad vibes?"

nods solemnly Yuri.

Einar clinging to Arnheid's bust while committing himself to a course of action she would absolutely slap his shit over for even considering is some bleak shit man lol Anyway people have already talked about a lot of the tactical advantages and disadvantages at play here but here's one I think...

Peak Yuri, IMO

Gonna be curious to see what Rian's mom (...we haven't met her at all yet, right?) has to say to Rian and Philomela. This is probably too melodramatic a guess - especially for this early in the arc - but it would be funny if she's trying to force them into an arranged marriage. I thought it was...

I don't think she was considering, like, Replacing Elias with What's-His-Face (though Elias will absolutely assume that's what it amounts to and have a lot of angst about it). I do think she was considering the idea of studying under him for a while. Think about the sequence of events leading up...

Other Mage tried to get Chise to become his apprentice. Chise doesn't say anything, Elias can tell she's thinking about it, but the others tell Other Mage to piss off and he does - but not before giving Philomela an ominous warning that Darkness will inevitably come for her again.

Mona's really playing on Hard Mode huh lol

pounds table and chants O! T! 3! O! T! 3!! O! T! 3!!! Also a cool sequence to remind us about Dad.

What the fuck is in Thorkell's fucking Genes, man

Even aside from the secrecy, their relationship is weird and amorphous enough that Elias describing Chise in those terms still isn't especially out of character, either for him or the text as a whole. There were periods way back in the first arc where Ruth remarked on how each sometimes looked...

Deeply regret your decision to drop the franchise, much as I understand it. Thank you for all your work so far. With regard to the chapter, I really enjoyed it. Not really surprising but still happy to get the impression that Philomela and the rest of the existing college cast will continue to...

Overly serious answer: There's two big reasons. 1.) Japan has, IIRC, and as you might expect for one of the world's most populated island nations, the most aquariums of any nation on Earth. Basically no matter where you go in Japan, you're likely to have reasonable access to a decent aquarium...
