Shikkoku Tsukai no Saikyou Yuusha - Vol. 1 Ch. 1 - The Hero Of Darkness Fall Into The Abyss

[exxp]

Both the betrayed and betrayers are too stupid.

@LikeASkurn You say that like it's a bad thing.

Actually that would be an interesting swerve. Hero gets killed, DOESN'T come back, now the idiot traitors need to still fight to save (or ruin) humanity minus their last and best hope.

@kaitensatsuma I mean I’d love to see something like that, but thats such a far fetched and bold way to write a story that i doubt that anyone would do something like that. Most people don’t want to read a story in which they don’t sympathize with the protagonist(s) in one way or another. Honestly way too risky of a move for the author to do. And how would you even end it properly? With the whole world going to shit? Out of the question for any sane author lmao. With the way this manga is written in the beginning, you simply can’t write it where the hero gets killed and doesn’t return via plot armor.

I gotta give mad props to the girls, even I don't think I could keep up such a convincing act as they did for three whole years without attracting some suspicion until the last day.
Also wtf, I don't get why they wouldn't defect or something because of his charming manga MC characteristics, they were with him for 3 whole years, and on the last day, they showed guilt, so I don't get why at least one of them wouldn't do something, like almost tell him but stop themselves, of course, the bad heroes could just be threatening them or something, "subordinates" could mean a lot of things for them, or they could really hate him being overwhelmingly stronger than them, speaking of being stronger than the others, isn't using multiple elements kind of broken for one element to be able to do? And why darkness? Wouldn't it make more sense for wind to be able to manipulate certain elements?
Also, why are the attribute heroes stronger than the element heroes? Well i mean there isn't any book saying that they have to be or something, its just that you would think that people given the power of an element would have more things that they would be able to do with that power, its an entire element (of course it could just be elemental magic, which would explain a lot, but idk), versus a single attribute, like better sight or speed.
Of course, if i sound like i think the author is bad or a terrible writer, I don't think that, my mind just works very logically, so I pick out all the logical problems with a narrative when i see them, everyone has their own way of writing (and drawing), and my overly logical way is definitely not the only way to write a good story.

damn, i knew they were fishy

 

[Kaitensatsuma]

@TimeVolt The problem is that there are just so many problems with this story that it's hard to tell where to start

 

[TimeVolt]

@Kaitensatsuma Eh, most of them aren't "problems" with the story, more like nitpicks, and what I might change if I were to write this story, there is probably a reason for everything, it just hasn't been explained yet, we are only 4 chapters in. If i was the writer, I would have at least sprinkled in clues as to the answers, and while yes, the girls did show guilt, that level of guilt is usually enough to make you do something to redeem yourself, but there is definitely still time for the girls to reappear and redeem themselves, or betray the MC again.

I really hope he will take revenge on the other heroes and the 3 fake waifus. 🙂

 

[Ovisionik]

The plot is dumb as fuck
Why did you try to 'seal' the strongest hero? I can understand you are jealous but as long as he is useful (for humanity)... WHY?
Ok, you tied him up, locked his power (90%) why not try to finish the job as quick as possible? (Just kill him) why explain your plan?

 

[Normalguy7]

Here we go again this bull shit. Op naive Op....

 

[black_knight69]

Mc is too confident with his strength so in the end that strength itself is the demise of him by confident I don't mean it in a bad way what I mean is he have no sense of danger

 

[Kuyu]

I know he got betrayed... but how the hell is it so easy for them to take away his magic powers? Doesn't that kind of stuff usually like fill up with rest or what not? It's not like they are gods who can take away his powers. Makes no sense to me.

Hope is not what I want 😐 "Sayonara"
