Nihon e Youkoso Elf-san. - Ch. 67 - Shirley's Debut

to be fair to him, we are getting a very skewed perspective since mc and his party kinda are playing on easy mode, where if they would die they just kinda go to japan. So makes sense to be a tryhard when literal lives are on the line.

His face reminds me of Askelladd. Maybe just a resemblance?

There is no new raw yet as of writing this. I'm still waiting.

Oh yikes! Thanks for getting back to me!
I'm actually worried about the mangaka. Was worried about you too, but you managed to pop in.

I guess, Askeladd went to isekai too

I do not like how the country is micro-managing dungeon exploration. I understand why it's happening, in the context of the story. But from a reader perspective, it's annoying and boring. Having meetings where they plan large scale raids for every floor boss, takes away the independence of the main characters. Even the main characters recognize this; hence why they are not accepting the mission; and just participating for fun. So why even have the meetings? It's just a lazy way for the author to introduce characters and exposition dump information. I also really hate how Kazuhiro keeps letting other teams explore the dungeon ahead of them. I've noticed a repeating pattern: Other teams kill most or all of the monsters, except for the boss monster, and any monsters the boss spawns. Kazuhiro's team comes in just to battle the boss monster. Rinse and repeat. There is no exploration. No discovery. It's just other teams doing the exploring and Kazuhiro's team coming in to close the deal.

The other thing that's been annoying me, is levels. We keep hearing about high level adventurers, like Gaston in this chapter, that's level 120. But we have no idea what level anyone is at in Kazuhiro's party. Last we heard, Kazuhiro was around level 81. But that was before "defeating" Shirley. And before his battle with Zarish (whatever the blonde guy's name that Eve loves). Zero mention of Kazuhiro leveling up. Marie is even worse. Last we heard, she is level 23. And that was way back when the bandits first showed up, many chapters ago. We have no idea what Wridra is; which I'm okay with. And we have no idea what level Shirley is at. Can Shirley even level up, since she's a ghost?

The author keeps telling us about these high level adventurers, so we'll be impressed or intimidated by them. But then intentionally withholds the current level of the main characters. So we have no way of comparing them. Stop using level as a metric for new characters, if you're going to hide what number the main characters are at.

"Swordsmanship. Tactics. History. Commerce. As expected from a Member's Only National Library. It's a shame that most of it isn't very practical."

What? How are these books not the very definition of practical? Is it stuff Marie already knows? Are the books beginner level? I find it hard to believe, considering that it's a Member's Only National Library.
