"We can't really rely on torches either since it means one less hand free during battle..."

You're telling me the home center doesn't have head lamps? Flashlights that clip on to backpacks? Lanterns you can hang from a belt? Or even glow sticks?

Sure, I had the same thought, but it would have been as annoying as trying to do a dark room puzzle in an rpg without the lamp. The absolute mega lamps were also under powered and there is also floor chasms and mega geckos. Trying out a headlamp and THEN the mega lighting would have just cost valuable pages. I mean we had to cut the solution to the gecko problem as it is!

Man, curse the decimal online publishing format. If this is a normal chapter, it would‘ve been∶
Found gecko>devise a method>win
but since it‘s a half chapter:
Found gecko>win>how did they do it

It‘s jarring and really pushy to get people to read the next half.
well you can roughly guess it already.
it's probably some oil that make the gecko lose its grip and fall to death.

Is there a page missing inbetween them making the plan and them killing the gecko? Feels way too sudden

In another bout of thinking too deeply about this manga... Department store bicycles. Bikes are shipped to stores partially assembled and someone needs to finish building them before they get put on display. But because department stores run on hiring people for low wages, you don't find the best bike mechanics. The bikes often have build errors, some of them serious safety errors like undertightened stems or wack shifting that will bind up the chain.

So who built the bikes in the home center? I know the home center magically replaces things taken off the shelves. But does it replace an expertly built bike, or a poorly built bike?
I can tell you from experience that in Japan, the rank-and-file workers on customer service front deliver a much higher degree of service excellence.

For example, at the US Naval base in Yokosuka, they have a McDonalds that serves the full American menu... but it's owned, operated, and staffed completely by Japanese. And let me tell you, the shit that came out of there was always superb. And by that, I don't mean "good by American fast food standards" or "good by McDonalds standards", but I mean actual, consistently good food no matter what time of day it was or how busy they were.

Thankfully they've got an infinite supply of lube so no problems once they hook up.
