The scene where Kakyu lamenting his inability to use healing magic while caressing the glove, fucking hell man, now my room is flooded with tears :qq:

Erza really is the appropriate choice to become Ars surrogate mother, that kid is a walking disaster :pepela:

it's "danna-sama"
similar to "goshuujin-sama", it can be translated as "husband"
(I think danna-sama is more intimate)
but both can also mean simply "the lord of the house" or "master of the house"
That makes sense, yeah.

You know i hate isekai characters buying or using slaves but using the slave contract on themselves with the person they bought being their master is weirdly okay to me. No one person has unfair control over the other they are just bound by the terms to do right by eachother. First time I found slavery wholesome, good job author and artist's
Because this is just a contract. It is called 'Mutual slave contract' but its true nature is just contract. A contract that bind both side, both side need fulfill their own responsible that they agree or receive punishment and both side consent to sign the contract willingly. The punishment may be a bit harsh but it's equal nature between both side of the party make this is a contract and not master-slave where one side has absolute power over the other.

No matter how "wholesome" they try to portray slavery in trash isekai, they will never have the guts to pull this. They can never have MC relinquish power to anyone, even the love interests. Because deep down, they are all cowards.
That's the sad part of power fantasy isekais: the MC would never give up power for someone else. They can give up power for greater power, or use their power for someone else, but never have the balls to sacrifice for someone else.

Tô me i dont know how that would not be used as marriage a long time ago... The slavery thing if it is fantasy... it needs to exist, how MC deals with it is the best option... like this or just be against slavery...

In all of this trash isekais... they have slave contracts or marks... majority of time my head cânon is what MC said... they just dont bother Tô build prisons as majority of slaves are criminals.

That's how it was in our history too. Jails are a relatively new feature in our world. Believe it or not, jails were actually seen as a humanitarian triumph since it offered methods of punishment that weren't a) fines, b) beatings, c) enslavement, or d) death penalty.

Most slaves in our history, however, are war contraband. As far back as recorded history goes, we see that conquerors would take the conquered as slaves. Europe, Asia, Africa, America... it didn't matter what continent or culture. Slavery is a uniquely human sin, and it's usually one of the horrific results of war.

Translating "danna-sama" to "dear" is kinda strange here, given the circumstances

What was it?
It's "danna-sama" which can mean as both "Master" or "Husband".

Given the circumstances, they're kiiiinda like in a marriage but not really so it kinda makes sense, but I think Erza is still calling him as her master here and not as her husband.

Man, one of the worst feelings is probably when you go "if only I could've done 'insert thing here' when 'event' happened". Maybe not the worst feeling, but definitely one of the worst

I was also surprised by this
so is it an actual marriage?

although the actual kanji can be interpreted quite differently, I'm fine with "my dear" here
I think it's cute

but it makes me a little worried how this "dear" translation will hold up as the story progresses
because she is still wearing a maid outfit (that is a maid outfit, right?)
They actually consider themselves married, and do all the married life things, later on in the story.
(the manga adaptation has changed a ton but i’m certain that that will be the same)

I think this is the only time I've seen slavery used in an isekai and it wasn't completely upsetting.
Yeah, it's rare for it to be used in a way that isn't weird or forced, or in a positive way. But, I have seen 5 others where it's included and not that bad.

1. Death March in Another World Rhapsody
he saves a group of abused demihuman slaves in a country where demihumans have no rights, and they travel to find a country where they can be free. They're basically his adopted kids, and the only reason they don't remove the mark is because pretending to be his property keeps them safer.

2. Skeleton Knight From Another World

The MC actively works to shut down the slave trade, instead of owning any, and frees tons of captured elves along the way.

3. How Not to Summon a Demon Lord
The 2 girls get slave collars by accident, and a large part of the story is trying to remove the collars. It's mostly an ecchi comedy, so the author made the scenario very non-serious.

4. Rising of the Shield Hero (at first)
He is literally forced to buy a slave, even though he hates the idea, because he is betrayed and left for dead. Later on, it is less justified once they build up trust, but it works decently well at the start.

Shield Hero has so many OTHER problems that the slavery barely registers (though I still fucking died when she reenslaved herself).
