i'm reading the novel atm and decided to check the manga out too.
read up until ch4 and am going to drop this now.
they just skip over so much.. a big part of the novel (at least so far) is not only what's happening, but also what the characters (especially note) are feeling like. This is almost completely lost in the manga and is going to make some later arc/arcs really, really uninteresting.
"It was casted on Erin" is not good English usage. It should be "It was cast on Erin". The base form is "To be cast" referring to a spell which is not the same as "To cast" which refers to someone or something casting a spell. "To be cast" becomes "was cast" in the past.
Even in the case of "He/she/it cast" you would avoid using "casted" as it sounds awful. But, since English is designed to send people who don't have it as their native language crazy, "It was looted" sounds fine and you can it.
Good effort on translation tho, it isn't easy dealing with a language that is a shambling abomination that combines Old German with Old French along with a dash of Greek, Latin and various other languages.
Mm... Only chapter 2 in and it's pretty boring. I'll listen to Darris and believe 10 chapters will be "where it gets rolling."
Edit: It's not good. The writing either feels really bland, or completely drops the beat that they intended to write. You can see that they have the proper structuring for a decent to good story... but the way it's written just drops the grade. Quite a bit. What's supposed to be a tense situation isn't tense at all. What's supposed to be a sympathetic isn't.
slightly better than most isekais tbh. party dynamic is pretty good and 2 good waifus. mc isnt stupidly overpowered either. needs more world building and a better translation and it would be good.
great art!
To all of you who is having a hard time understanding the
Just came here to tell, this is a completely different beast than the offical LN, try to see this as a spin-off.
The history connects at some points but especially the relationships and how they were built is completely different, it is rushed and you don't feel the progression properly.
There are 2 volumes in 12 chapters, this is not cutting corners anymore but more like when a teacher asks you to resume a book and present it at school (not sure if they still ask this kind of thing) and you present that mashed potato resuming 100 pages into one.
On volume 1 all his history and depresssion getting replaced by his training, training that is not made up of a couple days/hours as it looks like in the manga, it was way more interesting and deep, the progression was fair.
His relationship both with Roslia and Erin gets super deep on volume 2, specially Erin
@SemiNoodle "Shambling abomination" is overly harsh. English has its quirks which might make it slightly harder to parse then other languages for non-native speakers, however its also a beautiful and expressive language once mastered.
