THE ISEKAI DOCTOR Any sufficiently advanced medical science is indistinguishable from magic. - Vol. 7 Ch. 29

[CheesiBoye]

Am I the only one starting to think Eclès will be a good guy? So far I thought he was gonna be one of the main villains, but we keep seeing that compared to him the rest of the church is way worse

I think it was in his original introduction where the after word or a blurb said something about become one of their greatest allies down the line

 

[velatic]

gotta love when the current bad guys are at each other throat

Thanks for the translation. And bravo on doing all these small blurbs.

Thanks for the chapter!
I came for 'THE ISEKAI DOCTOR';
Instead I got: 'A treatise on the history of religion and medicine'.
I'm not complaining; I actually read all of it, and my eyes only glazed over once.

Big props for the translation of those walls of text.
I'm glad they were told to extend the localised title.
Mainly because it fits with the running theme of needlessly long manga titles.

Thank you for the translation!

it's great that they picked it up
but what the hell is with the "THE ISEKAI DOCTOR 　" 💀
they apparently weren't even gonna add the actual title "Any sufficiently advanced medical science is indistinguishable from magic" and the author had to ask them

No but seriously though. There are so many doctor isekai series, giving this such a generic title is doing it a disservice from distinguishing it from all the others. Like, the actual title is incredible, and they butchered it and gave it a name that prevents it from standing out or making anyone interested in it. Now it just sounds like "oh another one of those stories. They're a dime a dozen, it's nothing special."

The Arch Bishop and the Doctor will be the downfall of the corrupt Cardinals

Devious.
The art is just so good. The characters are freaking pretty.
Finally, I hope MC and the archbishop meet. Based on the show of their characters, I think they will see a common ground.

I fucking hate when people change/remove the original title. Case in point: Ranger Rejects (sentai daishikkaku) got the absolute most retarded translation of “Go Go Loser Rangers!”.

I’m glad to know that the author put his foot down and got them to include the original title.

I find all this church stuff very boring.

Can we just burn the entire church down? I think it would do wonders for my eyes since i wont have to see these freaks anymore

 

[moderateTrouble]

i didnt expect this already fantastic medical drama to become a scathing critique of the catholic church but boy am i here for it!

 

[Carn109]

The religious critque

 

[captain_crunch]

I thought ecles was the pope, i must have misread all this time

I first thought that he is some greedy priest but then the arc about the slums happened and now I think he is someone who believes that all human are born equal but then that John Elton guy said "... if you're human" so I started thinking maybe he wants the harmony of all races but wants to focus more on fixing the problems of the church.

I would read something like that specially if they also include his personality.

 

[Karikko]

The whole attack and defense from the Ecles are simply beautiful lol. Too bad seems like the Elton-ish entourage got what they want.

Medicine became the domain of the Catholic Church and others. As a result, the former hippocratic teaching that diseases were a natural process in the body and not the result of divine punishment or possession by evil spirits was in many cases dismissed.

This is wrong; or at least, it gives the wrong impression.

During the middle ages, educated clergy accepted that diseases could result from imbalances in the four humors, bad air (miasma), diet, or environment. This was the result of Aristotelian and Galenic medicine: imperfect but the best humanity had advanced at the time. These naturalistic explanations (not supernatural) were widely taught and disseminated, especially in cathedral schools and early universities, many of which were Church-run.

Author showcases his ignorance in favor of old stereotypes. There's plenty to criticize about the Church without needing to resort to historic lies.
