it feels like a bad adaptation of a Korean manwa . this is tastless, i personaly dropped it, not worth the read ( i only read 3 chapters though )

 

[Barrier-kun]

don't know about the loafer above but this is right up to my alley.. manhwas heck not me wasting my time on them
in short it's all about reference

 

[budifelt]

[MyriadDestiny]

does the raw really use the term Messiah instead of Hero? draws a bit too much Jewish/Christian connotation for my tastes

what? what's the difference? they just used a synonym, how was your immediate thought to connect that to jewish and christian religion? i mean, is it really that big of a deal?

 

[GreyMalcolm]

This one's actually really good in the later chapters!

Because Messiah is basically only used in that context today. Do you even religion bro? In Judaism, it's supposedly foretold that there will be a Messiah who will come and do a couple of different things—one of which being to bring back the age of Judaism. In Christianity (being an off-shoot of Judaism), Jesus Christ was believed to be the Messiah to that certain sect of Judaism. Eventually it's regarded as its own separate thing.

Just to be clear, I'm actually a fan of religion as mythos. The issue is more that the term Messiah is specifically from the Abrahamic faiths, which is a connection that isn't being intended. The story is not actually trying to draw from the Abrahamic faiths, but merely trying to sound cool. It'd be like name-dropping Bodhisattva into Lord of the Rings, but without any of the associated Buddhism. It's just really out of place.

i mean, im pretty sure "messiah" is just being used as a generalized term here. i don't know what the original text is actually referring to, but it's possible that to the translators, "messiah" was the closest thing they could find, or they just wanted to sound fancy, yeah.

this messiah stuff is weird and all, but you're all forgetting the most important rule - kick em in the balls. Getting beaten by bullies? Don't know how to defend yourself? Kick em in the fucking balls! Female bullies? Go for the eyes or something...

 

[daonewhoisworthy]

This seems like it could be an interesting manga 🤔

It would be cool to see that she became a demon lord for revenge or something.

 

[xanon]

No, no no. If you're going the whole whiny "I'm a normal boy and won't use my powers" and let other people die, ya gotta let go of your parents too.

 

[flannan]

No, no no. If you're going the whole whiny "I'm a normal boy and won't use my powers" and let other people die, ya gotta let go of your parents too.

If ya parents die in front of ya, ya'll totally become a main character. Maybe even go full edgelord like Batman.
That's the worst case scenario, better save them if you can.

He literally killed the demon lord and they decided to kill him off because he's too strong, and everybody just agreed with them? There wasn't even an excuse or a framing. No accusations of rebellion or murder or blaming for casualties. They said he's too strong and then everyone agreed to kill him.

at least they had the decency to be straight up and honest, that's all I'm giving them though.

I hope the demon lord was secretly waiting for them to do exactly that so they could ambush them while they're weak!

 

[SomeRandomNon-Existence]

if the people of the other world are like that, it makes sense why he is tired any doesn't want to continue living

Holy shit, bet you're fun at parties.

After playing recent Fate game and see his name, I concluded the MC name is based on ancient Japan prince known as Yamato Takeru as recorded by Kojiki and Nihon Shoki.
