Im curious as to how popular this tournament arc is in japan because personally i find it stretched out and just, why put a tournament arc where the mc doesnt even participate when the whole point of the mango is about peaceful farmer life that slowly escalated into building a town.
Also how the sports festival thing was cancelled because MC couldnt plan for different races having advantages or disadvantages but he makes do in the tournament just fine...
Like we are getting further and further away from the main hook in shorter and shorter chapters
