Oh hey, I liked this one. Guess we're restarting with a different artist, see you in 7+ chapters.

I'm hoping with the restart they do a better job of showing why the people in the town are working against Sora. In the original it felt like the Pitch Meeting explanation of "so the story can happen."
Edit: I also enjoyed the original art style. It was more Berserk like and the restart feels too manga-y.

Odd, I thought the reboot's art style was a lot more unconventional for a manga.
Also, I'm not sure what you meant by people in town working against Sora. I thought he just got fired from the guild for not meeting their standards, then they tried to sweep the incident with the lord of the flies under the rug to protect their reputation and because Falcon Sword was useful to them.

One thing I do like better about this one is that they put more emphasis on Sora's exile from his homeland. The previous version just skirted that part, but I think it's a bigger deal than his getting kicked out of a party.

I think the new art style is too clean. To me it feels too polished for a gritty revenge story.

It seemed like the receptionist was trying to get him kicked out in the first place and Falcon Sword turned against him pretty hard. It is explained later in the WN though.

I also like how they're putting a little more of his backstory up front. The WN gets into to later and mainly focuses on the the Lord Of The Flies and figuring out his power story first.

 

[SleekMoon]

Doesn't the novel start with the prologue, which is about him getting kicked off the island?
The receptionist seems to have just been following the guidelines of the guild when she kicked him out, it didn't look personal. She did come across as a bit angry with him, but that's probably because he looked like he was taking advantage of the system to mooch off of the guild.

I really liked the previous version, so I am excited to read this!

 

[T-sama]

I'm gonna miss Sora crazy faces and rants at the top of his lungs from the previous version, but still can't wait to see the new one translated

 

[Damniel]

cant wait

 

[Trodsen]

the art on the cancelled version was miles better, hopefully the story makes up for it

 

[Otaku-Sama]

2025 - Still waiting for someone to pick this one up. ;w;

 

[Nikodemsky]

The original manga had at least good art, this on the other hand feels like waste of resources. Some of the panels seems okay-ish, others looks like total, amateurish garbage with no sense of direction, plus there's some changes to the story and i'm not sure if it's for the better.

Honestly, it's just subpar revenge porn.

 

[Rimurutempest0324]

I’d prefer they just continue with the previous one. The previous manga had a uniquely dark art style but it worked so damn well for the painful, dark, malicious revenge story.

I think that there would have been further development on "reasons." Personally I think the Guild Master set him up because the GM is making money from the sale of illegal drugs. He set the MC up to fail. Threw him out without warning. Told the hoods the score and had them steal his bag. Etcetera. Otherwise how did the GM know what the MC was doing?

Oh PLEEEEASE don't NOT be cancelled 🙏
