DONT READ, since it might contain light spoilers. (Till chapter 16)
I was intrigued by reading some of the comments and decided to read and judge for myself how drastic the art changes were. People here are spot on, the new art is horrible. It is so generic and lame.
Now, the other big problem is the writing and not the art.
Since this has a novel, it feels even weirder
In chapter 9, MC is shown to be struggling & suffering from being stuck in that cave/dungeon and telling the loli dragon he will always be with her.
In chapter 10, they came out suddenly with a suit-wearing Elf. What happened? How did you clear that place??
MC becoming budget Kirito -_-
Then MC shoving his budget-kirito-giga-chad-dick to floor all em enemy fodder.
No one asks why the most incompetent trash in the world becomes so competent. The princess's character changes completely, like who are you, girl?
The most infuriating thing was when the princess appointed MC to be her 'royal dog'. The MC Former-Trash, why do you accept?
Why will you protect her until she gets another 'dog'?
Sure, the excuse was given that he is doing it because the princess was nice to him. As well as his childhood friend being close to her. Nice reasoning, but it doesn't make sense with the former writing and MC's suffering.
I need some Light novel readers to verify if the story of the manga follows what happened in the Novel. Did this new artist change a lot of stuff? Or the new art is so lame that it made it even worse.
Why do I feel like, when this author was writing the novel, he had a dream? A dream of his light novel getting railed after chapter 9, and he thought, ehh, why bother writing anything good? Did his brain devolve into a toddler suffering from trauma?
I am yapping a lot for this plot, somehow looking at that art gave me expectation and made me curious where the writing will go when he leaves that place, and how his character will change. Oh well.
Meh. -_-
