Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka?

Hummm.... If im not mistaken and if the manga doesn't change more events in the novel... About 7 or 12 chaps.
There will be even more if they decide to draw the side story that happens at the same time...

Forgot totally what i said xD it will take WHOLE 20 Chaps or more.... Or im just crazy and it will take 7 chaps or 12.

 

[Vertiplano]

Is this actually good or is it more of the boring isekai fase we're on?

 

[A21starman]

@Vertiplano

That is for you to decide. Read a few chapters and find out for yourself.

i really liked this series as a whole, for now im just waiting for an update, in the meantime, anyone know of an alternative for this terrific manga?

 

[Nyeara]

honestly it started off strong but now it just seems like every other chapter is filler/irrelevant crap, could have been so much better if they just skipped like every other chapter and focused more on the progression. 47+ chapters in and it still hasn't gone very far.

@Nyeara
Except that this exactly how the novel moves.

Spoiler

Kumoko doesn't really move the plot until volume 5. The novel is divided in 2 main stories, Kumoko' story and Shun' story.
Shun is another reincarnated student that was born in the royal family of the Analeit Kingdom. Both stories are separed and the characters never met each other, when Kumoko isn't moving the plot Shun is doing it.
In fact, these 2 stories and how they're conected is one of the mayor plot twists of the novel. Many questions from Kumoko's story are answered in Shun's and viceversa.

Spoiler if you ever want to read the novel.

Spoiler

The main answer is that both stories aren't running on the same timeline. Kumoko's story is happening 15+ years before Shun's.
This is why this last chapter of the manga was so important on the novel. During a big part of Shun's adventure one of the main antagonsits is a girl which one of Shun's friends know but she can't tell the others.
That girl is the baby we just saw in the last chapter until this point the readers believed that both stories were running on the same time. (btw she's also another reincarnated student)

@linkhuesitos15
I read the spoilers and that was definitely not what I was expecting lmao might have to go read the novel now

Spoiler

A 15 year gap was unexpected. Is Kumoko the only one who reincarnated in her time? Is she ever brought up in Shun’s story?

@Deenoodles

Spoiler

Is Kumoko the only one who reincarnated in her time?

The reason why Kumoko was born so fast compared to the other students is her race.
Being a Spider she only spend 3 months inside her egg instead of 9 months inside the womb like a normal human. Also thanks to being a spider she was able to move and act right after her birth, meanwhile humans on average only gain full controll of their bodies around the 6 years old. This gave her a huge advantage in terms of life experience.
There's another student that was born earlier. He was born as a goblin and thanks to the speedy breeding of goblins he was born around 3 months before the humans.

Do you remember the egg Kumoko lost at the start of the manga? That was another student that was born as a dragon (drake to be specific). She was the last student to be born (around 8 years after the humans).

Is she ever brought up in Shun’s story?

Yes, she is. It's a spoiler but now that you know about the time line gap and Sophia (the baby) I guess it doesn't matter anymore.
Kumoko is the ultimate villian in Shun' story. She's the mastermind between the Great Demon-Human War and pretty much everysingle conflict in Shun' story.

She has a really good and well explained reason to do it but that's a major spoiler. Ask me again if you really want it.

@linkhuesitos15 my question is that what chapter in the LN is the current chapter here?

 

[linkhuesitos15]

@IlQwerty
Volume 4 - Final Chapter.
But you would need to read the skipped side chapters to make a full jump to the Light Novel.

 

[IlQwerty]

@linkhuesitos15 alr thanks bro

 

[calmbreez]

That description made me feel a certain I can not describe. What the fuck.

 

[SanityBlurz]

New chapter! New character! looking forward to the next one!

 

[kronos00]

Oh boy, here comes the Yandere. Did you see that look? There's no need for spoiler, the eye says it all.

 

[SeekingSolace]

holy shit, this is so much better than i expected

not much to complain about, but...

Spoiler

i dont mind that the author give the mc immortality, but i am worried it might make things a bit boring

i also noticed that the author tends to use the same things alot, like...i cant exactly describe it though

 

[Sanakan_ht]

Seeing Kumoko finally going to the outside world, I have one thing to say.

Spoiler

How far are we now until we get to see Kumoko actually achieve her Arachne form?

Edit:

Spoiler

Checked the Web Novel, we're in chapter 160 (Volume 5) atm, the Arachne form should be around chapter 200 to 223(Volume 7) so we're still not too far off

Edit 2:

Spoiler

Light Novel we're at Volume 4, Arachne's form starts at Volume 6

 

[Rion20]

[Infamouspixie70]
