Izure Saikyou no Renkinjutsushi? - Ch. 30

[AkunCra]

This is not only an insanely stupid plot device to make the MC not kill anyone bc of manga industry bs but also absolutely stupid in the sense that Maria, Sophia and Kaede could just kill instead of Takumi and the problem is immediately solved
This chapter is just way too fcking stupid

You DO know that many manga MC's will outright kill other humans/sentient species in manga series, right? There is also many who are the extreme pacifist who will let the bad guy get away and continue to do very bad things just to not take a life. I am hoping this series is not one of them.

Do we even know what caused MC to get summoned in the first place? Also, remember how the other 3 get summoned, but MC is the only one who needs a new body? I think said reason is said reason the goddess stops him from killing, something is missing and linked.

Also, the whole not showing death on screen I think has more to do with the US censorship than anything else. If you have not noticed, US puritanical morals spread pretty heavily to countries depending on which they are. It's the same way how most countries refuse to go against the US's war on drugs. Look at old Japanese art from 100+ years ago, you will see naked women in them, but you notice how most PORN manga censor dicks/pussies/clits? In both the US and Japan nipples are the more acceptable ones, but not completely. If you self-censor then you don't run the risk of actual censors which may or may not exist(depends on the who, what and where). It's the same reason why people on youtube will censor certain words like suicide because they may or may not get demonetized, but that threat causes self-censorship.

One last note. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE MISSING CHAPTERS check batoto.

dude is dumb or what. just say it you got a curse that won't let you commit murder to any human being.

It's a bit hard to decipher this translation too. Takumi got mixed in the summoning of three heroes by the kingdom, which the goddess tried to prevent. But failed and sent Takumi three years into the past, as insurance in case the hero got out of hand (see chapter 22). ...But good luck figuring any of that out in the conversation between Takumi and the goddess in this chapter.

Thanks, I actually was trying to figure out why she forgot that she had 3 other people who had also been summoned alongside mc.

All this talk about plot devices, and NO ONE is talking about the REAL problem: Takumi's polearm transformed from a halberd with double-axes at the end of last chapter into a bardiche this chapter. That's the REAL deus ex machina lol

Typical "Realism" Fan: writes a 10 page essay about how the MC absolutely must brutally maim and kill his enemies or else the story is trash and the author should be publicly executed

Average Idealism Enjoyer: "The main character doesn't kill people because that's evil? Wonderful!"

I hope a hot girl joins his harem soon. Though the only hot ones we've seen so far are the goddess and a priestess with glasses.

I will not tolerate this Sophia erasure, we Stan an elf queen

I love the fact that Clancy got a lot of the info he used for Hunt for Red October from Harpoon. He actually played out many of the scenarios from the story in the system. Harpoon is crunchy as hell.

A based and harpoon pilled poster. Harpoon and napelonics are games that if you play them, you can land a job in the c suite not only due to networking but because they make you smarter.

Also MC should have demanded some sort of compensation due to that restriction. that's just trash and this is now a trash isakai.

Still reading because my good ones have not updated yet.

Okaaayyyy?

So he can't Murder.

I can see how a Japanese person would consider taking the rules in their own hands to kill a person who is tied up... would be murder.

I actually agree; under those circumstances, it is a moral stance that I completely share.
Now, I think the murder is justified... but it is absolutely "Murder."

Now, he escapes, pulls out a dagger, and is making a threat... and I'd call that fair game; Not Murder.
...
But that may not be Takumi-san's take on it, and the Restriction is coded from his instinctive belief to the core of his being, so... no problem.
.... no hay problemas....
... machts nicht, even....
.......
..... why did he say he can't "Kill?"
It seems an important question, since "Murder" only exists as an idea; it is the opposite of "Justifiable Killing."
Most laws are about describing the circumstances under which killing is not allowed in your local democratic society, and all the killings that don't meet those criteria are allowed; the ones that do meet that criteria are "Murder."

Basically, "Murder" is literally (not figuratively) the unjustified killing of a human being.

That's the word's meaning.

So... he can't actually commit murder?
That's awesome!
I'd be constantly concerned about that in an actual Isekai! Like with bandits and shit? Cos killing people really sucks, and if you can avoid it at all? That wouldn't be a check on your power, so much as a guide-rail you could lean on.

....
Besides, not like you can't "accidentally" start a (un)fair fight if some motherfucker honestly and desperately need killin....

Thank u always for ur good work...

So now this whiny wet noodle of a protagonist can't kill people, great. Not that this gigantic pussy would do it anyway, since he even stopped Sofia from doing so before.

It's cute how laughably bad the writing here is. Every plot hole you could possibly imagine will be fixed by the author using the Goddess as a tool. A fucking restriction on killing people because of “some weird reaction whenever Takumi is about to take another human's life”? Are we reading toddler's first attempts at writing?

---

Edit: I've looked this up in the novel (chapter 45), there was no such bullshit incident there. Takumi even comments how the Goddess seemed to have modified his morality, allowing him to kill people more easily. This atrocious writing appears only in the manga version.
I'm dropping this, apart from the fact that the source material isn't that good, the adaptation is straight-up dog shit.

Flat chests on women is peak. Nothing else compares.

 

[Lady_Luck]

Gotta love when the fan translation is better than the official translation. Official translation said something bad would happen if he does something that saves a human's life, not takes it

 

[Drifter00]

that's just down right pathetic... why can't authors see making their MC's like this is like a seeing a RED flag in a relationships... it's a fukken fat giant HELL NO...
