With so few pages being released, do they want to repeat Father's Day in the manga too?

I thought the manga would explain about his sword, since the anime didn't show the explanation how it works. I only found out because someone who read the LN told me

Thanks for the translation!

But, man, 2 months for that. This is the first time I've ever been invested in a series and it was the anime that had blown past the manga and not be filled with filler to do so. I guess that's the perk of having a completed LN for them to work off of?

Once again, people being surprised by a hydra head growing back, yet knowing what a hydra is in the first place
To be fair, if we go back to the original lore, hydras just were many-headed. The regrowth was added more than three hundred years later to give Iolaus something to do to assist Heracles (and make the tale more fantastic to tell, for a tragedian), and it was specific to just the Lernaean Hydra, as well. It's mostly modern depictions of hydrae that make it a racial trait and only if the medium allows it (many older games or those built around sprites don't usually let you sever heads, for example, so it's not depicted in those), often combined with some form of high natural regeneration; the extremely poisonous blood is rarely referenced, unless it's explicitly a poison hydra. Also of note is that Heracles's labours is really just the Greeks adopting and localizing Sumerian/Babylonian/Assyrian mythology, as Ninurta (war/hunting god) also had 11 conquests over Tiamat's (who is the Sumerian original from which Greek Echidna is formed, the Mother of Monsters) offspring in the praise poem "The Return of Ninurta to Nippur".
