The Saga of Tanya the Evil - Vol. 26 Ch. 81.5 - Grantz's Letter II

[Tsubae]

I was kinda expecting her to move to Argentonia after the empire lost the war

 

[Ann2004]

Is it just me or are the subjects of this chapter seems a bit weird? The letter addressing "The commander" and I presumed that it's Tanya, but the letter addressed "The commander" as a "he"?

Well no spoilers or anything but you’re kind of on the mark there.

 

[SirShotty]

Poor sap, I hope he at least got some Francois poon or something before he died.

So in the end, they lost the battle for the Empire, but won the war against the world (or being X).

 

[Kradnam]

That’s quite crazy, assuming that was future Tanya, she doesn’t age normally because Ursula who is of similar age (as per the letter) was already 92 and passed away.

Then again, the little girl, Dorlis is a bit special, so maybe as her mother said, she saw something that normal people couldn’t see (i.e., future Tanya).
Maybe Tanya somehow managed to get one over being X, but regardless it was possible that she ascended humanity one way or another.

“Future Tanya” also has a silver hair vs. her original blonde, so that’s another point of interest….


In any case, Dorlis’ “unlocking spell” was adorable.


Edit: A crazy fan speculation here:
Since Tanya’s moniker has “silver” (from her medal) in it, is it possible that she ended up one way or another got deified and her hair color changed to silver colored since “silver” is what she is known for.

The “worshipper perception helps shape the god being worshipped” thing.

I think the Silver Hair is supposed to be sign of old age (Grey hair). Tanya is old. She just has a very good skincare products/process and probably aged well.

Some have said that she dyed her hair silver but I prefer the idea that it naturally became silver as she got older. She's grandma age now; she just doesn't look like it.

Most probably wrong translation/typo, I would have , associated with how Tanya's record being erased from history is one of the reason but nahh! He deadass attached a picture of TANYA .

Although if translator used ai(I'm not sure) to do this chapter then it can be explained as Japanese language can be pretty gender-neutral, so good chance that it Got translate as HE rather than She.

 

[Angelnickl]

Fun future chapter, also I guess spoilers that MC lived through all the future events. (Not that I expected anything different, but may lose some tension when situations seem dire.)

 

[vonisme]

Her hair is said to be silver but is it because she is old (just not wrinkly and old looking)? Her hair in the cover is kinda blonde

 

[xyzzy]

Does the story already have a formal, but understandably unofficial "final draft"? This reminds me of the time when people would constantly discuss the ending of the Mushoku Tensai web-novel in the discussions of the first arcs of the anime, lmao.

Yeah, that’s why I specifically spoiled it and included the context of being a WN ending. Didn’t want someone to unintentionally spoil themselves like I did before.

Anyway, given how the events of this chapter seemed to align with the WN ending while the LN has no ending in sight, that’s my reasoning (MT’s LN series already was ending by the time of the anime).

 

[equationx]

i don't know how correct this info really is, but i heard from someone that read the novel

Spoiler: Tanya

People who have extra massive mana apparently aged really slowly, but then again, not sure if that person is right or not

So, do you think Zen will end LN not much different from WN?

I love how this series got sniped by a worse quality translator, OG group decided not to translate because of the snipe, and half a year later snipers stop translating.

And people wonder why snipers are considered so bad

Thanks for the translation of this chapter though, maybe someone will pick It up again

Huh. It's not every day I get to meet someone who has a worse memory than my old brain.

"Kouhai Scanlations will be ending its time as a scan group in the coming weeks and this is the last chapter of Youjo Senki we will be posting. Thank you all for reading!

Most of the same members will be continuing to scanlate this series under the group Death Toll Scanlations."

I don't think they have been referring to Death toll as the Snipers but rather as those who got Sniped from.

the official tl is right behind this sniper's chapter, no need to wait for more scanlation

The snipers are legends and Reset scans

Even if that is true, is Canon that she have below average mana capacity, is type 95's ability of storing its user mana what allow her her great magical feats .

 

[Robbini]

Well, atleast Tanya wasn't stuck with malnutrition as a loli for her entire life was my first thought.
