He has 10 MP, that he could use infinite amount of times i.e. the MP never go down.

"stopping a decrease" should not be a surprise to you consider it's literally how he's been abusing it.

I don't think we got a example of him getting affected by a physical attack until now so that was a unknown, and if there was one I forgot afte rthe fuckton years it took for this mango to be done.

It'd be one hell of an asspull twist for the curse to somehow not affect his HP after the way it's been shown to work + the backstory behind it (being an accidental creation while failing to make proper 'add a cap to your status' curse)

 

[shitko]

it is always funny when a translator gives up on a manga and then years later we see why they gave up on this bullshit. Fuck this story.

Huh, the next one is really the last chapter. Promotional adaptations are a blight upon the world of comic books.

Is it really promotional adaptation? Because I don't think publishers would give 5 volume for that.

Occam's razor says that it was just an adaptation of something that simply wasn't exciting enough despite being given enough time, and so it got axed.

I physically have 7 volumes of a light novel adaptation. Those 7 volumes cover the first two or three volumes of the light novel out of ten total. The ending of the manga was slightly modified to better fit the hard cut (the artist explicitly said so in the afterwords of the last volume).
In short: yes, publishers will absolutely give even 10 volumes for a partial adaptation. They have the resources to and obviously they are getting more than they spend in producing and distributing the adaptation or they would have stopped doing so already.
Actually, I have a conspiracy theory that all adaptations start as partial and continue covering the novel only if they become more popular than expected during the committee meeting.

Damn, now I realize that not only his MP is fixed, but his HP as well, basically he can't receive damage, that's OP as hell, he is invincible then

But was it intended to be that way from the start, is my question.

I view it as the opposite, and more like "We'll adapt it, because even if it loses steam, we can just give it a halfway okay end and send anyone interested to the novels".

It doesn't matter in the end, sure, but it's the whole difference between this insidious, malicious move to get more people hooked to novels by sneaking them a taste of the story in comic form (which is odd, considering that you're in the business of comics), or just an unfortunate effect of a convenient exit clause that publishers can easily use to end these adaptations, like some sort of large bladed implement that swings down and cuts things.

Like the manga adaptation you have as an example: 7 volumes, covering 20-30% of the novels. How many chapters is that, taking up how many weeks/months worth of magazine publishing slot? That's a lot of time investment for what amounts to a promotion.

Thanks for the chapter.

Thanks for picking this up. I got a bit lazy with the redraws and just didn't touch it anymore.
