@JustNatsuki: Nah, if that was the case, the DJG wouldn't be such a heavy plot device. I've no doubt this will get addressed one way or another, even if it turns out:
there was never a DJG in the first place. Just an extremely powerful mage who manipulated a story to make it seem that way.
. Sex and pseudo-Psyren elements aside, this is playing out like a traditional RPG so far. And you always confront the evil boss at the end.

That's a pretty shit reason. Plenty of manga and other types of literature have thrown big ass plot devices out the window in exchange for money, lack of money, and many other reasons.

Spoilers:
Alice in Borderland's big plot device was collecting all the cards to let one dude leave and repeat that all for eternity, but that went to shit (I'm aware it was a lie, but that's also not the first time BPDs are lies).

Ender's Game threw the plot device of Ender being able to communicate with the aliens out to make a sequel about it (money).

Every Marvel movie throws the plot of saving the world for the last time out the window because money.

I can't begin to list the tons of times where heavy plot devices meant nothing to the creators

Just from the "Sex and pseudo-Psyren elements" you have to realize that this isn't a traditional RPG so far.

@JustNatsuki: Those are great examples, but I was referring specifically to manga. AiB was an example, but by your own explanation it's not a great one either. You seem well read, so I'm guessing you have other examples? Movies (especially American-made ones because...c'mon.) aren't that great especially these days because they cut a SIGNIFICANT amount of plot overall in favor of action and special effects. Different audience, you know?

LOL yeah, true man, not a traditional RPG, but there's a reason I said to put those aside too.

@TwilightFaze How was AIB not a great example? Also, plot is everywhere and you can't say HPDs aren't thrown out the window specifically in manga without looking at the whole picture. If you don't, it might as well be fake news, since you're specifically cherry picking information without looking at the entire picture.

@JustNatsuki: It probably was. In all honesty, I never read it. Never even heard of it til you brought it up. I thought it wasn't because I was going by what you said:
"(I'm aware it was a lie, but that's also not the first time BPDs are lies)" It implied to me the example wasn't a great one, but still a prevalent one regardless. Wasn't cherry-picking or anything, just going by what you said. Maybe you can explain it to me? What's BPD and HPD? I was thinking they were "police departments" in the manga, but from how you're talking, I think I'm way off-base now.

Thinking about giving the manga a read unless you recommend against it. Like I said (and no sarcasm) you seem pretty well-read and knowledgeable reading your past posts!

Can someone help remind me about killing or not killing the Deep Jealousy God and Galia? Thank you, I left this for awhile so I could have more to read but forgot some plot details.

Just finished reading ch 79 Raw.
Oh boy, the story can go in a very ugly direction if the author really want to do so.

@Banshie: Galia is a follower of the Deep Jealousy God and will most likely be killed because of it like the last one. The story is that they are after the DJG to kill him to lift the curse, but the MC also wants answers so he's hoping the DJG will give him the answers he needs before the final battle.

welp. I'm gonna be laughing my ass off if my prediction i posted her a few months ago was correct and his childhood friend is the jealous god. I'm backing it even more now that this is apparently a post apocalyptic series. somehow his childhood friend will find out about all the boning he's done and then the twist is that she was hidden yandere and this awakened it

@Zenith_Tempest I agree with hour theory. DJG is his classmate who is on coma. That's why the DJG is asleep, and needs to be awaken. It has been shown that it is Earth in future and the building looks like hospital or some research facility. Lilia is time traveling maybe from even more distant future. And that's my guess but they are born in castle via in-vitro.
