Magan no Akuyaku ni Tensei Shita no de Oshi Chara o Mimamoru Mob o Mezashimasu - Ch. 1

So yeah
why do they always refuse to become the protagonist of the story

A lot of these otome/game isekai protagonists seem to shun the main character route to avoid skull fucking canon because then a lot of their game knowledge becomes useless somewhat.

So yeah

Because they usually also like the protagonist.

Sometimes, the plot requires something only the protagonist has, making replacing him impossible. Or like in this case, people are just prejudiced against him due to his eyes.

There interesting version of this, with a dark twist.

 

[Kampfarsch]

Oh look...its that plot again

 

[zwxr]

Isekai with mangekyo sharingan? count me in.

Simple... Being a Protagonist means shouldering a heavy burden of duty. They dont want to hold that responsibility or they dont want to be villaineous (especially, he is basically in a game story in which he is basically the villain)

Its more or less being free from everything else's drama which is something that coincides why Isekais/Power Fantasies are very popular in japanese media. "You want to escape the reality, so you go to isekai, turn into a hero/villain, but wait thats also responsibility, i dont want that"

I think its something like that

Goodness the artstyle is so cute. For some reason I'm reminded of the Summon Night series even tho it doesn't look that similar. But it gives off the same comforting and moe feeling I get from that game.

 

[asspussy]

Why they all want to sit on the chair watching the romance between the female characters they love and some other men...

 

[lowarctic]

I have the perfect chair for this MC

I can't be the only one that thinks that person on the cover looks like Cain Silford from “Chronicles of an Aristocrat,” right?

 

[thycondrius]

Seems like Evil boss turning mob is the new thing for Isekais.

Still, the maid is cute so Let's go!

Nice job with the translation

page 08 ..
roman action RPG ..

is it a game about resurrecting the roman empire?
jokes aside, isn't a correction needed there?

I was thinking the same thing lol. I thought they remade the series.

 

[MrGrinns]

How do you just "accidentally" belt out someone's full title like that? "Child of the evil eye" isint even a short title to say? Its four whole ssyllables in Japanese too.

like that just sounds so ridiculously contrived as an 'accident'

 

[MrGrinns]

Its called the "evil eye"

one of the irises is a star of david

lmao i see what you're doin there author. Clever clever

 

[N2O]

Little maid is going to be best girl, I'm calling it now

 

[lordb1]

I love how totally unaffected the maid is during the entire opening. Just tied up as a human sacrifice to summon a demon, just another Thursday.

 

[MangaMonger]

Another case of just taking otome isekai tropes to make a genderswapped version of male demographic, and the character development seems shallow so far, but it doesn't have anything that bothers me so far and I like this type of story, so I'd like to keep reading and see whether the heroines are cute/likable.

 

[kingthe13]

Exactly. This defeatist mindset is so retarded.

You know you're not the protagonist, and since you know the story I can understand thinking: the protagonist is going to be the hero.

But at least try to be a supporter, a friend, an ally. All those things are fine. Be the protagonist of YOUR life while trying to help the good guys.

But no, it's always "I want to be the mob character in the shadows".

personally i dont want to be the hero looks wise i want to look like a thug shark teeth,evil looking eyes, etc
personality i want to give off the the false impression im just worst kind of person while not actually doing anything evil.
while secretly doing good and aiding the hero.
honestly the only way id even join the heroes party is if he or she is totally oblivious to obvious evil vibes and comically evil way of talking and thinks im a nice guy (which i am but they shouldnt know that)
and just thinks there aliies are overreacting about me being evil.
so essentially id join the party to mess with the heros friends and or harem thinking iv got some nefarious plan for the hero but im actually an ally.

maybe do a big reveal at the end of journey hopefully not in a big self sacrifice scenario but if necessary i will commit becausew if im going out im going out my way.
