Yeah this is too much of an understanding for me, these 2 girls were having their brethren chopped of and sold like merchandise and they’re about to get their redemption served just like that. This chapter’s talk no justu only worked cuz she’s a cute girl. What’d she have done if the bat girl was a buff dude instead ? Seems shallow for me. The redemption arc was not needed here imo. And seems that the rabbit girl will have it too…
Thansk for the translation

Hmm. Feels like a regular shounen battle manga now. Complete with the talk-no-jutsu turning enemies to allies... no matter what they've done before.
It literally runs in Sunday Webry, the online edition of the same manga magazine that publishes Detective Conan, Frieren, Silver Mountain and Sleepy Princess in Demon Castle, and previously published Inuyasha, Call of the Night, Ariadne in the Blue Sky and Komi Can't Communicate. I don't know what else you expected.

tl;dr This is published in an online shonen magazine, stop expecting darker or more adult stuff just because it's essentially an all-ages reboot of the author's old porn doujinshi.

Something tells me this is all a set up so a cool edgy new villain will suddenly pop up and kill the new reformed demihuman girls just to show how far more evil they are.

"We can be friends because you're cute and we'll have lots of fun 🥰"

Yeah, fuck off. Dropped.
killing people or make them rot in jail for the rest of their lives ain't the only way to deal with evil people

letting them understand their wrongs so they can do some kind of social work so they can TRY compensate all their evil deeds is also a way, so I'm sure (hope) that is route the manga is going for even if it isn't explicitly stated

I think the artist is the one that published porn doujinshi, the writer is a different person tho. But yea, I agree that it is in the same magazine as Detective Conan, typical shounen story should be expected.

She chose evil out of pure self-interesting and now getting rescued from consequences out of that same self-interest.

If she had come to any sort of realization about her actions maybe I'd feel differently I'd feel a little differently but her moment of "redemption" being about how she can opportunistically choose a better more comfortable life for herself explicitly because she's pretty is even more tone deaf than I expected.

I mean sure she choose to change sides out convinience, but that's still a first step for her to realize her wrongs, I wouldn't exactly expect the girl that was mutilating kids to save her ass completely change her perspective after a 5 minutes or less speech

also take into account that this is Quna we are talking about, the girl with a golden heart in the order, kagura, raito, cattleya, liona, etc, will most likely not be as merciful as her, this scenario could easly end in a "you can comeback to be my model after some time of social work/jail : D"

You mention Frieren in same magz with Kaguraito, Weekly Shounen Sunday.

Frieren has no chill to demon, even the most peaceful duel ending like Denken vs Macht, Denken doesn't hesitate to kill shot.

You just put the standard bar too high and this series looks so inferior

Okay, they capture the minions to join their country. They have to execute their leader to compensate it.

The backstory feels too shallow in this one. She needs to fix this.

And the artist, Mashu is just flexing her outfit design (I suspect the artist is woman too by the art lining and penname choosing)

The problem is you're just gesturing toward a bunch of hypotheticals that only exist in your head but are nowhere in the story itself. The series so far actually consistently reinforces the idea that Ninyou are a lesser race and harming them isn't that bad or even outright excusable.

I have been anticipating and dreading this outcome because I saw hints of subtext that value status, and whether a Ninyou is victimized versus a human (and hotness I guess) as qualities that recieve more mercy but I wouldn't have planted a flag on that hill especially since the explicit text is at least trying to say the opposite. But this latest example is so fucking egregious that I can't pretend anymore.
