I don't see how any of that is a counter to his argument. Literally missed the whole point.
True, but the duel was still a huge letdown after all that buildup. At least in MobuSeka, Leon shit talked the harem in such a humiliating way that their reputations and pride were destroyed, and they were even disowned; the manga version of the MobuSeka duel had even funnier dialogue. Even better, Leon bankrupted most of the school and mocked them for stupidly betting against him.
I remember reading in the comments about how it goes on to show how the entire royal family is basically retarded except for the second prince. Shame that manga didn't continue adapting the rest of the story.
Everyone I've seen that's read the MobuSeka LN agree the first 3 volumes are the best, although the Alzer Republic was okay. MobuSeka always had fantasy in it, but the problem is that it went from low fantasy focusing on characters to high fantasy very quickly. What's worse is that the story finished so quickly that the author had to come up with an entirely new story that had less interesting characters; i.e. the infuriating bitch that is Leila.
Oh sweet. Thanks for the list. I'm caught up on the first one and already read RTA 24 Hour.
I was compelled by sheer spite for the author of the series, combined with the fact that all the other translations simply didn't properly convey just how bad the story was. A month, eight chapters, several uploads to e-h, and a full compilation edit later, I'm just waiting on the next batch of content.
Since you read those two, the ones that I recommend the most are I Swear I Won't Bother You Again and Accomplishments of the Duke's Daughter. Those two are more serious about what happens after the condemnation event, while the rest are lean towards comedy more, or don't really get into the consequences/reactions to being bullied for being the villianness.
Does this mean the Gyaru Sister train wreck is not over yet? I'll get the popcorn ready! 🍿
It's less that the story itself is bad (It is), and more that the author baited people into paying for untagged NTR. The public version is an uncomfortable story about a poor girl who's fallen in with a bad crowd (Until Chapter 4, at least). The whole story (492902), which I've compiled, and edited for flow after going back and doing the dream chapter Luigi butchered, is about an enthusiastic slut who changed after, like, a week, tops, because her brother showed her the barest of minimum care (Which apparently he both was and wasn't showing before?). The author actually wanted us to believe this was a wholesome story when it was anything but, pay for the privilege of having her take a big, stinky author shit in our mouths, and then she blocked us when we tell her we're not coprophiles.
Thanks for pointing out the stories with consequences for the condemnation events. I'll take a look at those two.
Just because it's not meet you standard, it doesn't make it literally shit. Sure, you can complain, no one said you can't, but it show how ungrateful you're when calling such readable translation as shit. I've seen worse shit than this and I can said for sure this translation is still readable even for me when English is my third language.
Yes, but considering all the factors in the balance, I think what Allen did was exactly the way to go. Going all out from the start, using element of suprise, unconventional warfare, turning his opponents overconfidence against them and inflicting them a psychological shock they will never recover from. Crushing defeat. Perfection.
There's some difference tho... for example Allen isn't an utter heel, the heroine is stupid evil, and the stooge 5 isn't allowed to improve
