I feel like the author will have the teachers find a loophole, or maybe they'll get second place and the arts battler gets first place for once thanks to their efforts in helping Iruma and the other battlers (something that would still be a bit of a happy end since Beem and the other person, whose name escapes me, would get rewarded for their efforts) 🤔
That's something I've been wondering about as well, given her interest in having the haunted house experience with Iruma. I would have expected at least a flash of her being distraught at having too much work to do so this chapter 🤔
Exactly, it's like how Devil worshipping cults will use inverted Christian or Jewish symbols to show that they worship the being that stands polar opposite to God. I think a lot of people forget that some of the most common demon names are taken from the book of Solomon since the named demons from the Bible are some of the most well known traditional demons (traditional in the sense that the "demon" equivalents found in other religions and mythologies aren't technically demons at all, like how Yokai get the "demon" label, even though that's not quite accurate.)
I don't know about that, this series is still doing pretty well and the japanmans are more than happy to milk a mango for as long as it makes money. I doubt it's ever going to hit One Piece numbers but I can absolutely see it go passed six or seven hundred. Whether it should go passed that point or not is really up to the author and if the author can maintain the same level of quality.
Going through most of the series, Demon ranking seem to be based on the following:
Kiriwo has rank 2, and if he were to receive 2 levels of promotion then he would be rank 4.
Wasn't Baal noted to be connected to the Sabnock family when he went to visit Sabzan and offer Sabro his recommendation to become the next Demon King?

my reason for saying it probably won't go pass 500 chapters is because this is a comedy series in a school setting and those rarely ever last 10+ years. mostly because there's only so many times you can reuse the same basis for an arc before it get's tired. there's also the author's ability to churn out jokes will normally get exhausted by that point in time. even if this were to last to chapter 500, surely we would be close to the end of the final arc.
why do idiots always assume that every criticism is because "not enough action dur". i don't know why anyone would be 350 chapters deep into a slice of life school comedy that has almost no action at all if the only thing they were looking for is action. to me this arc over stayed it's welcome because far too many chapters felt empty. hardly any dialogue or comedy and that's not even to mention that this is just a rehash of an already done school event arc.
I don't think the school thing will hold it back to much, there's a lot of stuff outside of the school left to explore as well. So far the author has been doing a good job of keeping scenarios pretty varied, which should help keep things fresh for longer than most.
You're technically not wrong but I think it's still different enough that it feels new. Going from running a labyrinth to stop a bombing starring the core cast, to managing the building of a haunted house with an expanded cast. Most of this arc so far has been setup and some of it could have been more efficiently written. Personally I don't mind that sort of thing but I can understand how someone could get bored of it especially if one of the new characters don't click. I think it's had a lot of fun character work so far and we're finally getting to the pay off.
I called it out because most of your other criticisms have been about the pacing as well, the most common reason for that is because the person expected things to be more fast paced during more slow paced sections, and this generally equates to a lack of action. The point ultimately is that you're criticisms are shallow because, you say there has been no dialogue, but there has been a lot, maybe not the kind of dialogue your looking for, but there has been plenty going on this arc. You argue there is no comedy, but you have missed the fact that this arc has been a bit more of the serious end, which is necessary for a slice of life so the comedy doesn't get stale and to create world building and character development. Your claims that this is a rehash are also incredibly ignorant, of course we're going to see a repeat of the school festival from the first year, it'd be ridiculous if they skipped over it since that's not how that works, but that doesn't mean it's a repeat of events, this has been a chance to see a change in how the Magitools battler is treated and to create a push for Iruma and co to become more involved with the battler they haven't invested much into, especially now that they have a member that actually knows what they're doing (so hopefully future arcs will include more involvement with the battler, at least in terms of passing remarks, if nothing else.) You claim that I am attacking you because of a little criticism, and yet all you have given are brainless complaints and a call for the series to end soon because that's what you believe should happen. The only fair comment you had was about the lack of comedy, and yet that is no different than the "lack of action" perspective I called you out for in my past comment. Honestly, I just don't get why you don't just take a step back and take a break from the series (to wait until it's done) if you're going to gripe every chapter.
