The author is trying for a subtle approach but his storytelling is not up to par, so it ends up being confusing.

It doesn't help that he's purposely hiding things from the readers, like what's the deal with the martial artist.

The flow of this is horrible. Short chapters, inconsistent conversations randomly happening. I was alright with the change from the oneshot until they met the demon king, then it really just lost continuity slowly in terms of understanding what's going on.
I agree.

Particularly since revealing the hero is a lab grown hero who is in fact 4 yos old is....uh....so many levels of weird on top of a weird semi h plot and they're trying to do timey whimey stuff on top and it doesn't make a whole lot of sense?

Still trying to figure out what beezlebub's motivation even is.

if we are following the magic like the last chapter. The most likely outcome is that Itsuka knows how to reverse time and did it to his members already, probably been used when they are killed in battle multiple times and he just reverse it, in exchange of that is the memories since that can be considered "time". Maybe that is why Toifa doesn't remember much about her past.

Itsuka knows more than anyone that the hero should be for anyone, he probably used the time reversal magic to erase his own memory of liking Shaayu back since that will contradict the value of being a hero.

this is just my theory, my manga theory

So um...
How many plots have it been?
From the "The isekai heroes are coming to town and we gotta keep this peaceful era or else they'll go rampage" to "visiting my Daddy Maoh" to "whatever happened to Toifa and Mr. Fly guy" and "Super Demonland goes awry" because of some "Random Granny fights for Ero Trap Workers' Right"?

The short number of pages don't help, things feels so rushed I don't think there's a core to this story

No, seriously, what the hell?

itsuka didnt reversed time, he just reduced his feelings towards Shaayu which he has done before. This only affects himself. Pretty sure he cant manipulate time.
the main point of this chapter are itsuka both considered reversing Shayuu's time cuz he doesnt think she should love any one person as a hero and hates that's she actually willing to forget him (esp just based off his suggestion) and He's using the "i want to leave statement" to test if she still acting "as a hero" in his eyes.
But this should be it for the drama for a while, off to Amazon Village next for the next fetish....

What the hell is even going on anymore?
I gotchu, the author got a lot of fame off of a really solid set up in a one shot. Then got serialization, resulting in needing to come up with a proper plot for the already established set up. This then fostered an enviroment of just absolute nonsense strung together on a tightrope with said set up that has begun to erode the tight rope chapter by chapter devolving into a freefall of the readers and the plot all together.

Itsuka/Mage talking about Hero should not obsessed over one person and treat people equally, reminds me of a quote "A hero will sacrifice the person they love to save the world, but a villain will sacrifice the world to save the person they love".
Itsuka know Shaayu have feeling for him, and just like how Itsuka as a mage can't catch feelings that cause him unable to think straight to cast spells. He think Shaayu being obsessed with him will get in the way of her position as hero, since "That (choosing the world) is how it(Hero/Shaayu) was meant to be created".
So here come question "is Shaayu want Itsuka because his magic(usefulness) for the party or because she want to be together with him specifically?", and Shaayu's answer with "I want you because your magic, even if I can't have (you for myself)". Itsuka is fine with such answer because that mean Shaayu will still choose the world over him.
At least that how i interpreted this chapter 🤔

I see, fly guy eats time (literally) and can reverse time for specific objects by vomiting up time he ate. Assumedly vomiting on something replaces their current time by covering it with the time-vomit's time-period, causing the time reversal.

Tonfa's mental weirdness is caused by the aftereffects of setting back her time a day when she was transformed into a Kaiju. Her body and memories are out of sync causing a discrepancy due to a combination of being a living object and the amount of time reversed. Hence flyboy's creepy actions in previous chapters (trying to quick fix her) and his comments in this chapter suggesting that the Mage not consider using his time-vomit on the hero.

Riyo's healing might be a mixture of self time-stasis and transferring wounds to himself. The time-stasis might be reaching its limits judging from his conversations with fly guy, and that the Mage's head injury that he just healed is followed by Riyo having a sharp migraine shortly after and dropping his drink. This is also guessed off of the fact that Riyo is older than he looks, and fly guy mentioning he's incompatible with Riyo in a previous chapter (along with a portrait of Riyo overlayed on a assumedly stopped clock as flyguy says this).

Mage boy is seriously concerned that his presence is negatively effecting the Hero's purpose, and the Hero herself directly affirms that she has feelings for him but she is still being objective about him in terms of her being a Hero. Her refusing to dismiss him is because of his skills not because of her love. The Mage accepts this, and decides to use his feelings-normalizer/reset spell on himself again because he is actually affected by budding emotions towards her when he needs to keep being rational and objective. Judging from his last line, it's possible he's supposed to do  something to her if he believes she can't continue as a hero.

Lord knows what futalady's problem will be, because this party is becoming a cluster fuck of a time bomb it seems.

Anyways, I think the author is trying to do show not tell, but is too discreet about it and compacting too many details at once. And flyguy's just super shady but essentially benevolent, I guess.

This manga really falls apart whenever it tries to be "serious" lol

There's no dramatic payoff in whatever scene we're building up to in this so-called romance that is worth all of this super contrived nonsense. And look contrived nonsense can be fine, but here it's just not very well done nor does it fit with the rest of the manga if you ask me :questionblob:

The homunculus wasn't bad, as it can explain why he wants out of his party. A bunch of people looking women while the youngest one is the star of a movement that he wants for himself.


The story can take that route if it wants AS LONG AS IT EXPLAINS ITSELF PROPERLY. To me and my limited knowledge, it's not.
