Tensei Kaku Gamer: Ouji demo Kateru Isekai Kouryaku - Ch. 5

this story is so damn stupid.

I guess its going on my reading list because I apparently can't get enough stupid shit in my life

It is isekai slop & edgy and all, but so far it's been consistent and respectful with the use of fighting game themes, from the SF combat mechanics, the likeness of japanese FG culture like the coin system, the concept of sparring partner, and even the skimpy outfit the girl uses I believe are homage to FG charas (lots of girls in FG use sexy outfit such as Cammy, Mai, Athena, etc).

There's no thing such as "slavery system" in any FG, so I doubt the story will devolve into that, as slop as it is.

I think the main difference is that Mai, Cammy and others (Athena is mostly a cameo in SCB/Psycho9 unless you meant the OG one in SvC) flaunt it their skimpy costumes while here, the girls are clearly unconfortable/forced. So more to the edgy/revenge theme of these manga.
I'm here for the absurdity of fighting game (mostly SFII) mechanics in this world and the Japanese scene lore (doubt it we'll get any western one) so I'll keep reading but we clearly will get the kouhai going all edgy pretty soon.

All of that runaround for recruiting the JKs. At least the grasshopper ate a Shoryuken. Will Nazuna show up next chapter?

Princess Athena in SvC and cameos on Athena's supers in KoF games is the one I meant, but yeah I use Athena there loosely.
The skimpy outfit was clearly forced on the girls, and from the PoV of normal Japanese girls it's an embarrassing outfit, that's why I didn't deny the edginess. It's still pretty much typical isekai edgy slop manga after all.
That being said, I still doubt the "slavery system" cliche will be used here since it has nothing to do with FG mechanics nor FGC culture in general, unless they spin it as tag mechanic lol

I wonder do they mean the five gods in Japan, or the world since it’s a western nation… it’d be funny if was someone like Ryan heart or Justin

It's Karate-ka but for fighting games... I'm putting this in my read.

It will be funny if the "fighting gods" are the global scene top 5, not JP top 5...
