Such a bad take on helmets, the second most important piece of protection, after shields.

Thanks for the translation.

Even in a world with monsters stronger than the average human, helmets are still important pieces of armor. Any kind of attack deflection helps, especially given that almost any head damage in a fight can drastically affect the outcome, if not end things immediately. Hell, it'd be worth it just to protect against debris from the inevitable environment-damaging attacks down the line. Shrapnel is just as deadly as any weapon.
Admittedly, it is nice that the author at least tried to give a reason as to why nobody wears a helmet. Not a good reason, but they tried.

@BobBiscuit

Glad I'm not the only one irritated by the complete disregard for even a simple helmet.

 

[Tds-PdV]

To add on the good helmet discussions here: a helmet could safe him on a simple case of him tripping/getting knocked back and hitting his head on a tree/rock, considering fights in a forest littered with a lot of things.

Also, let’s also not forget he took a good blow to the head on ch. 2 that almost incapacitated him. This experience, ironically he might have forgotten because that very blow.

she really is quite versatile

 

[Schernobyl]

Love how the author continues to inform us of how talentless our main hero is. Glad the MC understands the grind.

 

[ciera]

Thanks for picking up this series

Aria: "I recommend buying these set of armor"
Kikori: "But what about the helmet?"
Aria: "Helmet? LOL! Just don't get hit in the head bro!"

Yeah I appreciate they're at least trying to justify it, but holy shit is it so wrong.

Helmets are the FIRST piece of equipment people buy; head wounds are debilitating but the head is also very cost efficient to cover with rigid metal armor.

He at least gets a chest protector next, but he really should have gotten something for his belly instead of the stupid arm and shin guards.

 

[Snailman32]

Literally all their arguments against buying a helmet are just as applicable to every other piece of armour. Aiming for gaps? Getting crushed by strong monsters? None of that is helmet exclusive

 

[Greedygreen]

So he went into a weapon shop to buy an armor?
Is a bit strange for author to do that despite the fact that MC was living with the armor store owner.
