Katainaka no Ossan, Kensei ni Naru ~Tada no Inaka no Kenjutsu Shihan Datta noni, Taisei Shita Deshi-tachi ga Ore wo Hottekurenai Ken~ - Vol. 9 Ch. 40…

[mir-teiwaz]

This manga is so much better at action than love comedy it's not even funny, hope it gets more serious arcs

 

[Kefrayba]

The mangaka managed to draw fight choreo without any speech bubbles. Make the panels even more compelling.

 

[TheGreatALBundy]

Seems to be healing magic, similar to the nun, but yeah not sure if he could managed to heal him fully before droping him, they've shown they can heal pretty fast

Oh, healing! I was guessing fire cause they had a similar glow before their flaming arrow was shown. So I figured they were using magic to ignite their arrows and used it to cauterize his wound. Could be healing though as well, yeah! Would make sense since it's the church.

 

[anak_sampah]

YES, THAT IS HOW A FIGHT SHOULD BE. MINIMUM YAPPING.

Drawing is god-tier as well

 

[Knighto]

you don't fear the expert assassin, you fear the person that grew old in a job where 99,9% dies young.

 

[Szaal]

I mean, the fighting scenes are really cool, but to be honest, I have forgotten why they are all fighting…

The attacker are royal guards lead by their captain, disguised as a badass Battle Maid. The defender, and the ambusher, are the paid mercs to take out the royal prince. It is a raid on the enemy base situation.

Hinnis, the femboy archer we see here, got immediately caught by Berryl before even tried to shoot the prince in the last ch.

 

[Diamond_Coal]

I must say, I preffer this over anime, why?

It's not even that some story bits are different. It's that the artist is just on another level. It looks SO MUCH BETTER. The battles have the flow, the movement, damn you can see the characters move in real time.

Anime would really need to pull OPM season 1 animation to compete.

 

[TheTenk]

It genuinely doesn't matter how well-drawn or well-animated the anime could be, because the manga is just fundamentally better written. It's basically its own story pretending to be an adaptation of the LN.

 

[Grye]

hardcore

 

[MathMols]

Its sad that this mange got such a bad anime adaption…

 

[cockmeat]

Jesus Christ the main character power of literally everybody in this fucking masterpiece.
Bro took an arrow and relayed that info to his team like some shit straight out of my CS game.
Knowing that the enemy heals so she tosses the guy from the roof after stabbing him.
Fucking professionals man finally some good fucking food.

 

[rentenzen]

One way I see the comparison between the different media of this series is that there manga adaptation does a lot, I mean, a lot of adaptation expansion of the LN to fully flesh out everything that it becomes its own thing, petty much. The manga format probably helps a ton with how much room the series gets to breath a bit and how it matches the nature of this series that showcases sword combat and fighting.

Like all the characters beside our main characters are realized characters in their little roles in the arcs, the old maid, the androgynous assassin, the make swordsman from previous arcs, the school principal, from what I recall from the LN.

 

[Salfaro]

Huge badass, getting shot in the neck but just signing information to his comrades anyway. Good job, random side character guy.
