Imokusa Reijou desu ga Akuyaku Reisoku wo Tasuketara Kiniiraremashita - Vol. 4 Ch. 17 - Unfashionable Lady in the Potato Dress Again

Mind fuckery is such a piss poor crutch. It truely is the calling card of a trash authors everywhere. It really should have remained the plot device of cheep con artists and the anti-heroes of bad hentai and porn novels.

Then again this isn't really an A list manga either so...

Mind fuckery is such a piss poor crutch.

Finally, someone who has the same thoughts as me. It's like replacing Prof. Moriarty's skill and cleverness with magic voodoo nonsense. Because authors are incapable of writing characters cleverer than themselves.

Authors need to learn we don't mind the plot developments. What we despise terrible worldbuilding to get there.

Another one is "bad guy mysteriously escaping". Where despite evil monsters lurking around every corner, or nation's best knights hunting them down -- somehow "for plot" the villains pull a Houdini disappearing act. Without the necessary investment of resources, time, or any loss whatsoever.

Extracting a VIP from a warzone takes millions: trained special operations forces, military resources, logistic, planning, etc. But when a bad guy needs to be recycled by author? Poof. No escort needed. Teleports directly to destination.

Good metric is to reverse the protagonist/antagonist. And ask yourself if the story would be a Mary Sue/Gary Stu at that point.

[welcome2atlantis]

Ookay wtf happened? Is this some kind of attempt at revenge?

 

[Speederzdk]

Can’t wait to see the bodyguard take that thot back regardless of the murder attempt and the fact that she willingly left him. No consequences incoming.

Literal plot armor lmao

You should have a bad bruise after this similar to when someone shoots you while wearing a bulletproof vest. The bullet does not go through a bulletproof vest but it's like getting hit with a hammer, not fun.

I would believe you if both of them got knocked back or something but the knife just stopped like that.
The momentum wasn't enough to even cause any pain

Let me guess it's going to be swept under the rug.. 😐

Unless she's under mind-control she totally deserves punishment, especially when she left Torren who's literally a "gentle giant" for that wannabe Robin Hood, the only thing he steals being woman of men and in the end giving to himself 😶

 

[Blacktart]

The dress looks nice now without the clown makeup and yes it's huuuuge

Turns out it's Nazel who needs a bodyguard, not Agnes. Dude has got very little combat skills and sense. He even turned his back to the huge bear monster to have a chat with Connie. It's no surprise he would let a suspicious person so close to himself, with no sign of being prepared for any surprises. Truly a man fit for peaceful office work.
