plz ice me too!

 

[neorasp]

incoming ice puns.

 

[le3]

There's maybe some pun in her name (granite=frost wut?) in Japanese...... But all we see is just the tip of iceberg.

end me

 

[mogu]

It's not a pun, and it's not Japanese. That's just what her name means in the language of their world.

And technically, her name isn't the english word "granite", but should be read "grani teh".

 

[kwendy]

A bit of a messy chapter, but ok.

 

[Sonata]

Cool

 

[Tenri]

I decided to reread since I need to kill some time. When I got to Chapter 2 and saw her command window again I did a double take.
Her third command visible under Magic was Icicle.

granita => an ice dessert in italia 😁

we call it granité in france though

 

[ErikMm]

@Lynkaster nice info

 

[Ambrosine]

Nice catch, @Tenri. I like that level isn't really all that important in this manga, or at least isn't the be all and end all.

 

[kwendy]

We took her for granite.

 

[chusetto]

A ver n ice chapter

 

[Vickyboi]

Great chapters!

 

[yurirei]

I demand her singing the 'Let it go!' in the anime (if they can make it)! That song belong to her!

 

[Tsukinotaku]

@yurirei The chance of this series gettign a anime is a big as the chance of us getting No Game No Life season 2 or Komi-san getting a anime...

 

[2SpiritCherokeePrincess]

She's her own worst enemy. She might be able to use Earth, Wind, Thunder or whatever--but Fire is the worst possible choice for an Ice elemental.

 

[parkourse]

...kek.

To put it bluntly, I don't like cheat skills in isekai. The author has built a whole world around the fact that levels can even get a goblin to the level of the demon lord. I believe it has been heavily implied that the demon lord and the goblin can go toe to toe, although the goblin does have her weaknesses to magic.

All that world building, just for it to be broken by two cheat powers. I can sorta understand the case of Aki, being an otherworlder and such. But Granite just doesn't make sense. Levels can bring a goblin to the same league as the demon lord, but if you have special abilities you basically can ignore large level differences? If a level 21 mage can beat a level 49 even with an element disadvantage, I find it extremely hard to believe that a level 70 hero with a full party couldn't beat the demon lord with a few "geniuses" in his/her team. Since there are just so many heroes around, it is implied that the demon lord has been around for quite a while as well. It just doesn't make sense for the demon lord to still be around if levels are just for show in front of special abilities (and note that Granite probably just has more mana and better affinity with ice than the average mage, and she still manages to beat someone with double the levels).

I am taking this comedy manga too seriously, but it just bothers me so that the cheat abilities are introduced.
