Hibiki - Shousetsuka ni Naru Houhou - Vol. 6 Ch. 50 - Apology

[mimicking]

i really like how hibiki is growing up, saying sorry for her actions and explaining why she did something.

also, the shade on LNs, i loooooove it, even though i read LNs myself sometimes xD

Damn. This manga author totally GETS IT about Isekai series and goes right for the throat. Nice.

Wouldn't the author be burning bridges by writing something like this? Light novel adaptions generate a lot of work for artists: illustration, comic adaption and animation. I think of light novel the same way I think of web novels, Chinese and Korean web comics: No editor to contain the author verbal diarrhea. Commendable effort and passion but full of ego, no refinement, self-reflection, scrutiny and deep emotion. A published author or comic had to went through draft after draft, rejected, try again. The amount of work and passion goes beyond the ego of the author and the marketability of story. The author has to discard, embrace and distilled their thoughts and emotions over and over to get their work published. It's not a dash of inspiration from reading someone else work, the editorial process tries to refine the author idea to make the work unique but marketable at the same time. Without it, phenomenon such as Isekai occurs because someone got inspired by someone else, eventually others just write Isekai to cash in on the trend. Democratic publishing using the internet is good, we want that. However, I'm afraid the popularity of web novels have drastically reduced the quality of comics and that's where my problem with web novels. After all, it's easier to cash in on an existing audience who read the novels online. I should blame the audience, but I can't. If Mitsuharu want to throw some shade, it should be targeted at the audience who consistently seek out such works instead. Though, we can't force people to stop liking things they like don't we.

Why are people saying Hibiki "grew up" because she apologized? She didn't change just because of that. She apologized because she was the one who started it. Like she said some chapters ago, she only does violent stuff when other people do something first. She's consistent.

I guess in her eyes the hand thing-y didn't actually warrant a punch, therefore she regretted doing it.

I can feel the attitude of the author towards the isekai and LN industry in general
