Survivalism - Ch. 15

I can't lie that's badass. Something about just straight up throwing hands. Geonwoo you earned my respect.

I never bought it when Garen claimed he had no talent. He has repeatedly survived against all kinds of threats despite not having a trait. Yes, Dojin saved him multiple times, but he was able to block or defend himself against orcs and hyenas beforehand. His instincts are sharp, he just never had the opportunity to prove them properly. That is especially true when he is fighting with a style that works against his strengths against creatures that are physically stronger than him.

It's all about maximising your personal gifts and abilities. Thank for the translation!

Bro was literally slept on lmao, bro threw in a Dempsey Roll for good measure

 

[BalrogDeMorgoth]

I didn't like the 'he just missed' but it being revealed to have been the guy dodging was genius.

It was pretty obvious from the start that he was OP for a normal human since he was literally fighting monsters without any advantage but I didn't expect them to go full on 'He was actually a Lookism character' as a twist, it's pretty cool.

Garen became more useless with every chapter,he can't even hold the normal slime from reaching MC

 

[blade_dances]

i feel like garen is just weak as shit , like he's practically just bluffing and underestimating other because he has mana or sum , knew yellow hair ain't that weak , just from 1 look and i feel like he's a good boxer

 

[FGRayz]

DAMN

Asias view on everything: Talent talent talent talent talent talent.
That he's a trained boxer? Nah man it's talent!
Everyone that has ever translated any asian word into talent must have made the same mistake, talent does not seem to mean the same thing as it does over there.

 

[PichiStyle]

Glad they are trying to make the archetypical "Cocky bastard runt" have some decency from the start, instead of having the MC humble him for 50 chapters before he changes, to be honest. Geonwoo seems interesting for now, let's hope they explore his character properly

 

[Cyberchimera]

The monk, I thought he be the tank

 

[Beesechurgeer]

A single character arc and he's already cooler than the mc that speaks with AI chatbots

 

[Junomano]

Bro is cooler than mc not gonna lie
And the ai isn’t all knowing, it knows a lot but not everything
Ty for tl

 

[Mentholatum]

It's not that Geonwoo lacked talent. We simply failed to recognize it. After all, ordinary people can never recognize a genius.

That's trying too hard to sound cool and failing.

The AI using "We" in the second sentence means it's including itself among the ordinary people that can never recognize a genius. But that removes the credibility of the third sentence, where the AI (an ordinary person) is recognizing a genius.

This would work if it was a narrator saying that "they" (the characters) failed to recognize it since "they" (the characters) are ordinary people, while the narrator is not.

(Yeah, you could probably make an argument about false positives and false negatives, but I still think this only really works if you have an external narrator.)

Or maybe I'm still half-asleep and not thinking straight...

In the countless animes I've watched and manga I've read and such, the moments that get me the most hyped are when two characters just straight up slug one another, like Kirishima vs Tetsutetsu in MHA

 

[SlimeC0RE]

It was kind of obvious that he was gonna do much better with his fists than with the weapons he was bad with, there were signs.

 

[Fuzaki]

Already 10x better than manwha like Solo Leveling. Imagine giving your side characters the occasional spotlight.

Yeah I was afraid they were going to circlejerk the MC for 50 chapters.

 

[Artimid]

"We failed to recognize it."
No, he failed to say "Oh yeah, I was a world class boxer as a child who can even take metal pipes to the back of the head before beating up 20 people without getting hit again. So.. yeah, I don't need a shield or sword, just give me some wraps."

It's on this guy and that girl for just staying mute and letting him be bashed and insulted. Should have spoken up like an actual thinking creature right at the start.

I mean he can’t block all of them have you seen how many they are ?

 

[Hamerin]

Hit him with that Dempsey roll. Ippo would be proud.
