World Customize Creator - Vol. 6 Ch. 57

[Misticsan]

Finally some action! Thanks to Kaarme for providing a link to my previous comment for those who may like a quick overview of the plot. As for this chapter, some interesting things:

-Wow, Benefost (AKA "Bikini Armor Chief") was an excellent strategist here. Since last chapter also told us that she's loyal to the Head of House Elfodras, those two other traitorous chiefs should beware her fury when she finds out about their plans (because, let's be honest, it's going to happen sooner or later).

-As for the Head herself, Reie is still full of misconceptions about Fonclanc. In the last chapter, she refused to bring her powerless slave to Fonclanc because she feared things would go badly for him, given the tensions with Gazetta and the rumors about Fonclanc being "particular about social standing". Now she's discovering that, despite being a Divine Artist-ruled country, Fonclanc may be a better place for the powerless than her homeland of Trentrietta.

-I must commend the kings here. The king of Trentrietta has even a traitorous advisor in his court, yet he still makes sensible decisions. As for the king of Fonclanc, I liked the small lampshade on court politics: while the Dark God Squad is the kingdom's "I win" trump card, other people need a chance to shine too. So Yuusuke goes to the port town and Hivodir will go directly to Trentrietta. Let's not forget that both Yuusuke and Hivodir are officially considered candidates to marry the princess, and showing too much favor to one may be bad. Kreivol also lampshades another worry: Violet has never minced words about her own father, and everyone knows that the Dark God Squad is her pet project, so if she (or a faction favoring her) opposed the king, she could actually win...

Look I'm all for "bikini armour" but there comes a point it becomes just ridiculous...

 

[Kaarme]

@Misticsan Leaving the slave behind might yet save her life, since the slave happened to hear the organisation chiefs planning to have the young madam die a martyr's death. Although looking back at the slave dude's whimsical behavior, realistically he should have no chance whatsoever to flee successfully. I hope the plot has him know some nice escape routes from previous adventures. Unless, of course, he just happens to get saved by the MC, or something.

i give up, its no fun to read anymore😘

 

[SoundSpark]

now that is what i call bikini armor, not too much not too little, the perfect amount.

 

[karoto94]

@DarkLordAlfie @eddy2000ism Same here, i was thinking of doing it since he fainted before the powerless girl.

So I'm thinking here. Granted I don't remember all the recent events but I don't feel like doing a re-read at this point. When is the last time the MC has made significant use (beyond silly toys) of his powers? It doesn't seem to be a significant factor at this time, when one would think it never stops being significant.

Maybe he'll be brought in to build a surprise tunnel through the mountains or something.

I always wondered:If women go to battle wearing bikini armors,does this mean that they go to the beach in full armor?

 

[draw2much]

I'm 100% sure they added bikini armor because the story is so bland right now. I'm thinking of dropping the series because all it's been is political talking heads for chapters. I read this series to see a guy customize a world (like SimCity!) not to read pages of political discourse and intrigue that the author didn't bother to set up in an interesting way. Ugh..

 

[ninjadork]

@Mnuchinboo There's no such thing as "realistic female armor". There's no such thing as "realistic male armor". There is only "armor" and "fanservice". The realities of protecting yourself from not getting smashed into paste/hacked to pieces means that armor can only be designed in a few different ways and still be effective. Anything else is either purely ceremonial or the result of a master smith building a custom order, and both of those fall back into fanservice.

Look up Shadiversity's video on youtube.

 

[ninjadork]

Dunno bout the rest of you, but I enjoy a developed world and an MC with restraint. So long as it's not being stupid about the politics, it can keep going as is.

 

[captain_crunch]

Comments today are so unhappy. People not happy about not remembering which factions are doing what to whom, people so upset about other people's confusion that they resort to name calling, and then people not happy about the fan service. I just eye those oppai for a moment and make a comment about other people's comments and then move on to the 200+ isekai series that I still need to get started on 🤣

 

[Robbini]

Well, as long as the women aren't in the tanking role or actually get hit (they rarely do in mangas actually), it's mostly aesthetical and their choice of what to wear. If what they wear turns out to make them lighter and allow them to dodge attacks more easily and as a sidebonus motivate allies into showing themselves off, it's all good, right ?

The only negative side would be those who don't think women should dress that way and the fact that it might also inspire enemy troops to capture them, because they're men.

 

[PrivatePublic]

Also could make the older veterans of the opposing force aggravated. "Young lady you're going to catch a cold! Put some damn clothes on! In my day...."

 

[Kanol]

Basic armor does nothing against divine arts. She's clearly ahead of the game.

@captain_crunch It's not just today. For the last few months anything with the 'isekai' tag is filled 90% with salty, sour, whiny 'This is shit, I can do better!' comments ad nauseum.
Funny thing is you'll see the same people crying about how crap, cliched and tropey chapter 81 is and how they're dropping it; as you do with the same comments again in chapter 82.
Isekai apparently translates into people crying just for the sake of crying.

 

[InsaneInsomniac]

ya know if you all could just put your shit behind you and work WITH Gazette then you'd have a perfect counter to these wind blade asshats, a joint force with arts users to face the best of the enemy's art wielding combatants and "powerless" warriors who can hold their own against most art users and would be entirely unfazed by the monsters

 

[Kaarme]

@InsaneInsomniac Hah. Gazette's official stance is to conquer the world and make the powerless the rulers, while the arts users are either killed or enslaved. Good luck working with them. So far Yuusuke has been able to work together with them (or rather Shinha) only because they want to use the power of the Dark God to change the world to their liking. Otherwise they think the only good divine arts user is a dead one.

 

[Glomoro]

@Kaarme Yeah, one of the groups that would really need to put their shit behind them first is probably Gazette. Granted, that shit is kind of a long time worth of being enslaved or otherwise treated like garbage themselves so it's not the easiest grudge to let go of. I kind of figure one of the eventual directions this story was made to go in was Yuusuke's continued refusal to side with Gazette if their plans remain terrible for anyone but the "powerless" would maybe spark a direct conflict between him and them, and maybe from there Gazette would have to start cooperating with at least whatever-the-name-was since Yuusuke has been working there and even starting some changes in how the powerless citizens get treated there. That king is wondering what kind of "Dark God" he'll turn out to be, well, that's where I'm putting my money. The "work together you stupid assholes" kind.
