[thorn briar]

Wait , she looks like esdeath here

I already like esdeath

[solid nebula]

What in the Komi white hair looking ass

[silver robin]

do you not use math for your job

[thorn briar]

Sorry, but I don't have a job

I just graduated uni last year

She got the best kiss

[thorn briar]

Also , my major which is translation never needed a math

[quaint patrol]

isnt human mouth bacteria alot worse than some other things

[thorn briar]

[silver robin]

shiowo manga translator

[dry moon]

That’s just the logic behind why someone would say that not that it actually works

[thorn briar]

That was my dream at one point , but finding jobs is difficult

[dry moon]

In the end vasaline is your best bet

[thorn briar]

There was 1 job where they didn't accept me , cause my English level is higher than the level they want

[dry moon]

Also, a lot of bacteria aren’t good nor bad it depends on what they’re doing

Bacteria from a dog’s mouth is fine in a dog’s mouth but not a humans, and vice versa

[thorn briar]

How a cat licking you

Would that be good or bad

[dry moon]

I mean

It’s not like the bacteria gets into you if you get licked

That’s what skin, eyelashes, snot and mucus is for

It traps bacteria before it can get it

[silver robin]

sounds like an excuse to hide the real reason

[dry moon]

That’s also the reason why sneezing and coughing on people can infect you

[thorn briar]

There is another one as well , I got the interview as a phone call and they told me that they will send me the location for the company to get an interview face to face

Since the world Cup to today and they never sent it

[silver robin]

cricket world cup?

[thorn briar]

Football World cup

[silver robin]

[thorn briar]

[silver robin]

fifa world cup isn't this year

[thorn briar]

Last year

[silver robin]

ah

[thorn briar]

And the call was on the day where the match was my country against Argentina

[dry moon]

Argentina got the alfajors

[thorn briar]

What is alfajors

[dry moon]

are, shiro

They’re these little cookie thingies

And they taste amazing

And you can’t tell anyone about them without them being insulted because they’re pronounced alfawhores

I swear

[silver robin]

rip your country

[thorn briar]

We won

2-1

[silver robin]

[thorn briar]

Just look up saudi arabia vs Argentina

[silver robin]

oh wao

nice

[slender skiff]

OVA are anime original, but are almost certainly canon, events that happened in them are mentioned in the stories
Movie shouldn't be

[silver robin]

define "mentioned in the stories"

[slender skiff]

It was the only match Argentina lost the whole tournament kek

[slender skiff]

For example the Diablo/Shizu meeting in s1 episode 25

It's an anime only scene

However Diablo does mention in the LN he did meet Shizu

Long time ago

And he had marked her as an "person of interest" since then

That's how he even found rimuru to begin with

I haven't watched the latest OVA yet

[dry moon]

I haven’t watched a slime series since the movie where rimuru beats the shit out of a guy

The first movie I think

I dunno if any more released

[slender skiff]

There's only one movie tho

[dry moon]

Ah

That one

[slender skiff]

The one with Beni's bro

[slender skiff]

But I saw references to the 3 other primordials

And ||Chronoa||

So I imagine it's semi canon at worse

[thorn briar]

Yeah , everyone was happy that Argentina won the final , since there are alot of Messi fans here

[quaint patrol]

dude these

cash cow type anime

with stareoffs lasting 15 seconds

assorted pov of the same scnene

suck

[solid nebula]

another day, frieren doing her usual schtick

[stable herald]

Idk if japanese author have no idea or they're just a fan of mecha genre, but there will always be a mech as a "lost relic of old civilization" In like every isekai and fantasy

[ivory mauve]

I like how it's actually a Imperial of Man Dreadnought

https://tenor.com/view/imperial-parade-warhammer40k-imperial-guard-space-marines-dreadnought-gif-22382055

[stable herald]

If only it have the signature armor scheme of 40k, which is bulky asf shoulder plate

Lmao

[boreal oyster]

" A high school girl is trying to get obsessively close to her kind stepdad. Even going as far as watching him in bed with her mom."

[quaint patrol]

wow that manga

all his stuff is yandere

it's honestly pretty good read

it's like being high

[boreal oyster]

just a nice girl

[silver robin]

[silver robin]

wtf

[quaint patrol]

it's like

psychotic right

so it's high

[silver robin]

interesting

[quaint patrol]

if you read it expecting good characters then it's like

bad i guess? or feels like twitter bait?

but being insane is pretty funny rather than being lewd

[slender skiff]

Ah yes

The "eyeconic" squinting of 100kano

HORSE SANDWICHES

The horse sandwich scene is incoming

[quaint patrol]

ender can you source me

the manga where the hero party abandons the mage

but it's because they were escaping the demon world

but the mage had like mana absorbtion so he soloed the entire demon world and demon king

and then the manga progresses to after he returns

[slender skiff]

[quaint patrol]

this is like the introduction

[slender skiff]

Unfortunately I only know the one where they abandon a swordman off the top of my head

But sure let me see

[vital plinth]

[slender skiff]

Exactly sam

Turns out there's a LOT of manga with that theme

[silver robin]

this is not related to my mental state currently

just gotta get that out there

[silver robin]

it came right

[slender skiff]

Not yet

Next week

[silver robin]

not yet

[slender skiff]

Yeah I thought it would be this week too

[silver robin]

they talked about sandwich on the horse

[slender skiff]

Instead we get introduction to Chloe

[silver robin]

thats not the scene?

[slender skiff]

And

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

Flirting

No no

[silver robin]

oh

don't spoil

[slender skiff]

The horse sandwich scene

Is when they actually make the sandwich

[silver robin]

hey ender you are a mod right

[slender skiff]

And we already saw that Mia didn't exactly enlist the best crew

[silver robin]

can you do this https://discord.com/channels/456397991847395339/1170872455083065481 plz thanks

[slender skiff]

No no, I just have a red role

[silver robin]

ah yea

[slender skiff]

Oh I can't edit those iirc

[silver robin]

[valid sapphire]

Poor boy

[slender skiff]

You can probably guess how it goes

Anime and people unable to cook =

[stable herald]

Looks interesting. I want to know too

Tq ender

[quaint patrol]

man

this yuribait segs manga has like

some of the best arcs ive ever read

with a pretty bad start i think

well it's not yuribait

it's just yuri and just seggs

but not too much seg

fanbox bait

that's what i was thinking of as a term, but there's no fanbox

[slender skiff]

What are you talking about

That was rhetorical

[quaint patrol]

huh?

I dont want to give the wrong impression

and i think i chose my words wrong

[stable herald]

@quaint patrol you know you have to share the manga name

after describing it

gib

RED N RIT ADVENTURE GOT UPDATED WOOOOO

[stable herald]

||Regardless,, still flat||

[slender skiff]

I haven't seen this meme in a while

[silver robin]

holy shit

[stable herald]

rare rocc

[quaint patrol]

Sorry, but im not into yuri

hanei rin's storyline is soooooooooo good

[stable herald]

I asked the name not ur taste 💀

oh

OH

LMAO

CAD U FUCK

tqvm

[quaint patrol]

not my fault these titles are like this

[stable herald]

u should have mentioned that its the title

[quaint patrol]

well it's funnier to not

[quaint patrol]

i briefly couldnt find it

couldnt find it after a brief search through my tabs

[stable herald]

ouhh

[quaint patrol]

I became a legend after my 10 year long last stand

[serene forge]

Shangri-La Frontier trash games are on a whole new level of amazingly bad

[slender skiff]

Clearly you haven't ever played AK

Fucking orirock

[zinc lance]

it took me a while to realize that you didn't mean what i do at work when you wrote CAD

[stable herald]

Lmao, engineering related?

[zinc lance]

is that the one with that mage named Luck?

[zinc lance]

yes, Computer aided Design

[slender skiff]

I'm reminded of mahouka

[gusty light]

speaking of mahouka

I'm waiting until Slow Press finished publishing the LN

it's already completed at vol.22

[slender skiff]

To be fair

Fan TLs also gave up

[gusty light]

[whole berry]

Mahouka is finished tho

We talking bout onii sama or something else?

[gusty light]

Is there any other anime or manga similar to Dark Gathering?

[slender skiff]

Yes, and the sequel + spin off are going along swimmingly
I mean the translations for the main series are miles behind
Unless you're content with summaries of the synopsis on the wiki I guess

[whole berry]

Uhh, idk if it was fan translation but the novel is translated upto vol 32 tho

And i think they are the same tl that translates the magian company upto vol 6

We are talking about onii sama the great right? The guy who can cast yeetus deletus to the port of Greater Asian alliance?

[slender skiff]

Yes

[slender skiff]

Those are MTLs

Iirc

[thorn briar]

[grim pebble]

Ain't it in the title

[quaint patrol]

rivnes middle chapters are so nice

really feels like the i love you game

[quasi vault]

the bruh

[quaint patrol]

i saw this but

goblin slayer and frieren take it seriously

idk what the right 2 are

[echo quiver]

racer

[quaint patrol]

rivnes is so

same author as aishteru game

love the vibes and art

[gusty light]

One Piece Related shit...

If someone masters all CP Arts, eats Diamond Devil Fruit, and Able to use Busoshoku and Kenbunshoku Haki to the tier of Oden and Roger

How OP this guy will be?

Diamond Fruit, I forgot the fruit but it is Jozu's (Of Whitebeard)

[stable herald]

Im here

to

post this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nt4g6yMPoLE

[silver robin]

its mtl but edited by human

[slender skiff]

I probably read it when it wasn't edited

[silver robin]

yes

they have different "tierings" of how good the quality of the tl is

[gusty light]

Did someone stole the first kiss?

[silver robin]

so the first 13 or so volumes are "really good", but the quality dropped off the further they went

they theoretically should go back and fix the not good tls, but not sure if they are

[gusty light]

is this 100 Girls Harem Anime?

[quaint patrol]

it is

so i just rewatched slime s2

i really appreciate frieren alot more after that

[vital plinth]

That anime was something

It was perfection

[stable herald]

true

[vital plinth]

And crushed my soul for few weeks

[quaint patrol]

https://myanimelist.net/manga/147483 this is a nice manga

it's actually a really funny theme

it's a deaf FMC who can read lips but still doesnt know wtf the MMC is talking about

the person who isnt deaf is the incomprehensible one

this same artist also authors a fanbox bait manga

but this manga is good

[slender skiff]

Man

How is it that Apothecary still hits all the right spots even when there's nothing much happening plot wise

[slender skiff]

Uh... Is that konobi?

[slender skiff]

I mean well
You're comparing 8bit with what
Madhouse?

[quaint patrol]

cos it's cute and funny

jokes aside, the art is always so clean

[slender skiff]

To be specific

[quaint patrol]

and chibified cute

[slender skiff]

For me what did it for me this latest episode

[quaint patrol]

oh you mean ep4 and not latest manga chapters

[slender skiff]

Is the scene where Jinshi and Maomao speak about the freckles

Ep5

To be precise

[crisp talon]

[quaint patrol]

oh her freckles were ep5, woops

[slender skiff]

Well during the convo about the freckles

[quaint patrol]

i watched that ep, just forgot number

[slender skiff]

He brings up his regrets

And wow that scene

Was

[quaint patrol]

i guess i am, but slime source is a ton more popular than frieren source right?

[slender skiff]

I mean

[quaint patrol]

slime's big sell is like SFX lol

[slender skiff]

Yes

Slime is an isekai LN after all

Frieren sells in a shoujo manga

[quaint patrol]

regrets about bad policing?

[slender skiff]

Yep

[quaint patrol]

yea guess it's how it goes

[slender skiff]

And how maomao tried to comfort? Him

[quaint patrol]

i dont think so

[slender skiff]

And the whole hairpin giving scene

What da heck

[quaint patrol]

the comfort is like

[slender skiff]

It's the first time I've actually found jinshi being... Adorable?

Lmfao

[quaint patrol]

an apathetic type that jinshi would never want

[slender skiff]

Ok comfort isn't the right word

More of trying to diffuse the tension

But that hairpin scene

[quaint patrol]

lots of animation budget

it was good

[slender skiff]

Way better than I remembered it being

Probably because the events of the garden party kinda overshadowed it

[quaint patrol]

it's more like

it's a full scene in anime

like a page of jealousy type thing in manga?

idr

the focus was good

adaptations standing out like that is gud

[slender skiff]

I'm so hype for next episode

[quaint patrol]

you've read the whole manga right?

[slender skiff]

Yep

Tho I'm considerably behind on the LN
I stopped after vol 4 cos that's where it was released when I read it

[quaint patrol]

i think i tried reading 3 and gave up on parsing the names

[quaint patrol]

6 vol now? or 7

[quaint patrol]

idk when it will be shown, but the scene where ||jinshi forcefeeds maomao vomit medicine cos she drank poison is pretty funny||

[slender skiff]

9

[quaint patrol]

oh wtf

[slender skiff]

That whole scene will be fucking amazing lmfao

[crisp talon]

[quaint patrol]

deaf kinda mute people problems

[slender skiff]

Kekw

[inner sphinx]

[thorny nest]

shiro skipping work

[thorn briar]

I never worked

And I have no experience

[dry moon]

Get a job

Get into consulting

[thorn briar]

Consulting what

[echo quiver]

mouri VA getting better a few hundred episodeds in

which proves that he was bad before

[quaint patrol]

this manga is so cute

it's like as if a Silent Voice was entirely wholesome

[thorn briar]

I just read that they changed his VA after ep 548

[echo quiver]

the new va was so... detective-y. like a proper detective

but now they've learned to be a lot more scummy like the old va

[zinc lance]

||forcing her to vomit all the tasty stuff, ||sad Maomao voices

[echo quiver]

average conan murderer: "My friend owns an ugly-looking ramen shop. Should I go ask my friend to renovate their shop? Nah, I'll just poison someone inside it instead. Easier than talking."

"Their ramen tastes so good that I don't want to hurt their feelings by asking them to refurnish the place"

oh shit, it's finally happening

[thorn briar]

Masumi

Ron wtf

He bought a tv

Finally

[quaint patrol]

i love these shitfaced chibis

the magica academy dropout adventurer manga is the best at them

[thorn briar]

The girl from the ending

[slender skiff]

https://youtu.be/voAu0YRWUNE?si=AhCdLzhAFSVr6ZZS

I'd say another contender for OP of the season

Full song is just as excellent as the tv version

[silver robin]

i think it's alright

[thorn briar]

Thankfully the pen was switched cause it had a poisoned needle

Toto ran to save the culprit like usual and Ron thought that he killed him

[slender skiff]

But Sam
The OP has achieved the rare task of
Not spoiling anything

[thorn briar]

[slender skiff]

Which is a big pog in this day and age

[thorn briar]

There are openings that don't spoil anything

[slender skiff]

They are rare but they do exist

[thorn briar]

I miss shinoa

It's been a while since she appeared

The last time she appeared the fans got mad at her for wanting to save yuu from shikima

[slender skiff]

https://youtu.be/z9JZB08qy44?si=YKZgnout8rJJFiZh

I mean

There's nothing to see here

[thorn briar]

Wait

What is this anime

The opening is good

[slender skiff]

The Apothecary Diaries

You may have seen people talking about it here

[thorn briar]

I thought it was a shampoo commercial at the 1st seconds

[slender skiff]

It's a mystery anime that's airing this season

[thorn briar]

[slender skiff]

Well that's selling it short I feel

https://anilist.co/anime/161645/Kusuriya-no-Hitorigoto/

It's historical too

[thorn briar]

[slender skiff]

Frieren's only real competitor imo

[thorn briar]

I didn't watch frieren

Yet

[solid nebula]

DID SOMEONE SAY HISTORICAL

[slender skiff]

Bish aren't you watching this

[solid nebula]

they better get this very very very minute historical detail right or I fucking riot

[slender skiff]

Surprisingly

They do get most things correct as far as I'm aware

[solid nebula]

there isn't good historical anime Ender

[slender skiff]

Because the only thing historical is the setting

[solid nebula]

they're either magical bullshit, or use WW2 as a springboard into literal fantasy shenanigans

[slender skiff]

The story doesn't hinge on it being historical

0 fantasy

[solid nebula]

I give Valkriya Chronicles the exception

it's a good springboard

[slender skiff]

Grounded in reality

[solid nebula]

me expecting My Happy Marriage to be a historical piece

literal magic

[slender skiff]

This one is absolutely historical

[solid nebula]

I wanted to watch Apothocary actually, I just forgot it existed

until it popped back up on my feed

lmfao

[slender skiff]

The only thing that may be unrealistic
Is how much a girl can be obsessed with medicine

And ofc how "realistic" mystery series can be with how much the MC knows

[thorn briar]

Wtf

[slender skiff]

Like bish you cannot be telling me you know how fast snake venom regenerates off the top of your head to know that the snake didn't bite anyone WHEN YOU'RE A HUMAN DOCTOR

COUGH HOUSE M.D

[thorn briar]

This is from conan and lupin 3rd movie

Ran , u aren't amuro and akai , so u shouldn't have done this

[dry moon]

She’s jealous her name doesn’t start with a

[thorn briar]

Amuro's name isn't his real name

[dry moon]

A fraud

How fraudulent

[thorn briar]

He just works in the secret police

Also , he is a spy in the Black organisation and works in a cafe

[dry moon]

Freud

[thorn briar]

3 jobs , 3 or 4 personalities as well as 3 fake names

1 of them is his nickname

[dry moon]

What’s his real name

[silver robin]

[thorn briar]

Furuya rei

[slender skiff]

Like

I don't even read Frieren

[gusty light]

hold on, thirty fucking two volumes?

[slender skiff]

Yes

32

[dry moon]

He looks good

[slender skiff]

FOR THE MAIN SERIES

The sequel already has another 6 or 7

[gusty light]

I thought it was just 22

oh, there is a sequel

[slender skiff]

That's index old testament

[thorn briar]

Indeed

[slender skiff]

Index is 22+22+8 as of now

[dry moon]

Sort of cute but also mature?

Hard to explain

[gusty light]

Index what?

[thorn briar]

Also I searched for this , and idk is this correct

[slender skiff]

A certain magical index

[gusty light]

oh

[dry moon]

Not what I thought it was

Thought it meant a fraudulent thing

[slender skiff]

That's fraud

[dry moon]

An adjective

No

[slender skiff]

Freud is a the name of a famous psychologist

[dry moon]

Hmm

[slender skiff]

Or rather psychiatrist

[dry moon]

Probably a weird mix up in my brain

[gusty light]

people spelling Freud as Fraud?

[thorn briar]

I seen this word in detective conan alot

[slender skiff]

I hope not

[silver robin]

yes freud is a famous person

[silver robin]

fraud = deceive

freud = person who has interesting theories on psychology and stuff

[thorn briar]

I never heard of him

[quaint patrol]

is it just a western knowledge

no but sam is middle

[gusty light]

I thought it was spelled as Froid

[silver robin]

if you took a single psych class you have heard of freud

[thorn briar]

I know deceive

[quaint patrol]

yea psych classes just make fun of freud

[silver robin]

yeppega

[thorn briar]

I never did

[silver robin]

understandable

[slender skiff]

Well the 2 things Freud is most known for

Is the Freudian Slip

And ofc, the oedipus complex

Aka, mothercon

Tho to be fair that theory isn't too ridiculous

[thorn briar]

What's mothercon

[silver robin]

i thought freud was most known for his 3 things that influence actions

[slender skiff]

Siscon but mothers

[thorn briar]

Is it like that anime

The guy who get isekai with his mom

[dry moon]

Pretty much

[slender skiff]

Pretty much

Far from the only one tho

[thorn briar]

I never watched it, but I saw some scenes

Anyway

[dry moon]

[serene forge]

Worth a try

[thorn briar]

Apparently, he knows who conan actually is

So , it doesn't help

[echo quiver]

freud's the guy everyone is emulating when you see a scene with a psychiatrist sitting in an armchair while a patient is lying on a couch talking about how their parents abused them as a child

[thorn briar]

[echo quiver]

he's the weirdo who started that trend

[thorn briar]

Is psychiatrist like a therapist or different

[echo quiver]

uhhhh

idunno

i think they're the same???

[thorn briar]

Psychiatrist gives medicine and therapist doesn't which is 1 of the differences from what I just read

[ivory mauve]

Perfect

[slender skiff]

Best to understand psychiatrists as a kind of therapist

[thorn briar]

I used to get scared whenever u ping me here thinking that I might have broken some rules, and it always turns out as different

[echo quiver]

i always get excited whenever you ping me here in #965642875994013777 thinking it's skeleton knight

[slender skiff]

Dream on
It's not getting an s2

[quaint patrol]

so healing after A Silent Voice

[quaint patrol]

ohhhhhhhh

this is the same author as nega kun and posi chan

clarified so much

aldehyde being the artist is a nice

[thorn briar]

Wtf , also she knows who haibara actually is

I thought only vermouth could have those scenes

[thorn briar]

She wants to join haibara to complete the drug cause she wants eternal youth

[boreal oyster]

??

[ivory mauve]

32÷2

[slender skiff]

[stable herald]

Eh

[somber relic]

@silver robin

at least you will get Engagement merged with main series in MD when the scanlation is done so around 5 years later

[slender skiff]

I mean

Who cares about such a shit series

[somber relic]

Masamune-kun's manga was enjoyable for me (though I agree the anime adaptation was kind of subpar)

Tiv's art is also eyecandy

[slender skiff]

The ending was

A mess

For me it's dumpster fire tier

[somber relic]

ending is good wdym

[quaint patrol]

just dont read for endings

stop at the good parts

[slender skiff]

On par with kanokari or domekano

[quaint patrol]

like mcdonalds maou

[slender skiff]

The ending itself is fine
The path to the ending is

[somber relic]

Kanokar don't even ended yet

[slender skiff]

A dumpster fire

Kanokari is a dumpster fire without it even ending

As was domekano

[quaint patrol]

But

[slender skiff]

Domekano was always a dumpster fire

[quaint patrol]

Chizuru is on her period

pls understand

[slender skiff]

Yet the ending somehow surpassed everyone's expectations

[quaint patrol]

wasnt domekano crafted to be a dumpster fire

that's alot different case

[slender skiff]

It was

And yet the ending was

[somber relic]

yes,as someone who already read three titles from the author

and the author actually manage to created worse dumpster fire than Domekano

amazing right

that take real talent

[slender skiff]

https://youtu.be/ErTEqW1_25c?si=CKfGZzFb9ba3BCf9

Like

[somber relic]

read Good ending

[slender skiff]

This video perfectly summarises the sheer chaos

[somber relic]

from same author

[slender skiff]

Of the ending

[somber relic]

that's the title

"Good Ending"

peak manga

[slender skiff]

And I have no intention of doing so

[somber relic]

damn

[slender skiff]

I dislike masamune enough

Probably cos I genuinely enjoyed it

Till I read the manga

[somber relic]

Ender go read Uwakoi

[silver robin]

YES YES YES

[silver robin]

[somber relic]

If I accepted as their data mod I will merge them by myself, wish me luck

|| just kidding, I will got demoted immediately if I do that anyway ||

[whole berry]

Engagement is a shitshow

[silver robin]

yes

[silver robin]

me 🙂

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/832755471718285362.gif?size=40&quality=lossless

[whole berry]

Bruhh why are the sequels of my novels are slated to release next year

I WANT IT NOW

[somber relic]

At least you already have release date information, instead of the author going AWOL

be grateful

or waiting for new volume release without ETA

[slender skiff]

Lmao

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

I mean

They do really love each other a lot

[ivory mauve]

https://tenor.com/view/laugh-anime-gintama-kagura-yorozuya-gif-18672773

[whole berry]

I mean it's harem

Everyone should love each other

[slender skiff]

Outside of kanokano and 100kano

I don't think you're gonna find such a case

At least love in that sense

[ivory mauve]

I remember something similar in Rosario +vampire

Manga that is

[slender skiff]

Like

In kanokano case

Saki is bi-curious at minimum

[whole berry]

Anyways since we're talking about harem there'sONE harem i dislike

Wedding ring story

It's a harem

BUT THE GUY ONLY LOVES THE FIRST WIFE

It actually makes me hate harem because of the dense mc

[slender skiff]

Then what's the point of it being a damn harem

I mean well

[whole berry]

THAT'S THE POINT

[slender skiff]

If he marries into an actual harem

Like dear lord if you're gonna do that

Just

Do like most harems

And have 1 winner

[whole berry]

The other girls need permission from the first wife

They're already married

All four girls

[slender skiff]

That's a dumb harem concept if I ever saw one

Well

I have seen many
And the concept of harem anime usually doesn't bid well

But in this case
He needs a good socking

[whole berry]

Bruhhhhhhh

YOU TWO ARE ALREADY MARRIED

[gusty light]

Sigmund Freud

Heard him once or twice in my college(communications major tho)

[whole berry]

Understanding the self

[gusty light]

Too bad it is not a real growth

[silver robin]

i have mixed feelings about harems with multiple winners

just pick 1 i agree

or at least give the illusion of picking one like bokuben

[slender skiff]

I mean
How about Realist Hero

I meant harems in that context

Cos idk
Realist deals with it really elegantly

[silver robin]

i still have mixed feelings about it

maybe cause monogamy is a societal norm

[slender skiff]

Well

Depends on what society

[silver robin]

it doesn't irk me as much as arifureta going over half its length before going full harem though

[slender skiff]

In some religions, as @thorn briar can attest

[silver robin]

"west"

[slender skiff]

And in realist

It's set in a pseudo-medieval

[silver robin]

just cause something was done in the past doesn't make it good in the future

[slender skiff]

I mean

Realist isn't set on earth so

Ironically, Seirei Gensouki is one of the series that actually bothers to explain the practicality of having multiple partners

[silver robin]

whats their logic

[slender skiff]

Different partners handle different responsibilities

Because in Gensouki, royals also have their own land to manage

[boreal oyster]

pseudo medieval

[slender skiff]

And managing people

Is another issue

Bookworm has an even more detailed explanation

[silver robin]

they aren't sexist, love to see it

[slender skiff]

One wive manages duchy affairs

[boreal oyster]

ain't ya said realist hero took place in future Earth

[slender skiff]

Another manages inter duchy affairs

[boreal oyster]

or is it another title

[slender skiff]

Well it was strongly hinted

That that was the case

Turns out it's... Sorta half true

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

Realist itself is set on a planet terraformed by earthlings in the past

[silver robin]

is this intentional or unintentional foreshadowing

[boreal oyster]

so it's just completely different dimension

[slender skiff]

So...

[silver robin]

so why did society go backwards

[boreal oyster]

wdym earthlings

oh

[slender skiff]

Well

[silver robin]

or is realist just truman show but scaled up massively

[boreal oyster]

earth mfs moved to this planet?

[slender skiff]

Because they were not able to finish their terraforming

So I guess you could say it was a "failed" attempt

[silver robin]

where did magic come from

smh author needs to do better job with lore

[slender skiff]

To quote Arthur C Clarke

Advanced enough technology is indistinguishable from magic

[silver robin]

[boreal oyster]

oh so the people are descendants of earth people

but what about demihumans?

[slender skiff]

And magic was actually proven in story to be nanotech

[boreal oyster]

nanpmachine son

[silver robin]

they are the original inhabitants that earthlings attempted to colonize or something idk

[slender skiff]

Nah

It's mentioned somewhat early in the story

Around volume 10

[boreal oyster]

explain it point by point

[silver robin]

wait wait ender

volume 10 is not early in the story

[slender skiff]

Ok well

[silver robin]

volume 10 is like the middle

[slender skiff]

Souma comes up with the theory as early as volume 3

[silver robin]

was it in the anime

[slender skiff]

Yes

In the conversation with Jeanne

[silver robin]

guess im blind then

[slender skiff]

He theorises that monsters and demons differ like animals and humans

[silver robin]

oh yes

i remember that

[slender skiff]

And that set up the theory later that Genia comes up with

That everything came from dungeons

[silver robin]

was this in the anime

[slender skiff]

Humans included

Nope

[silver robin]

ok

isn't s3 announced

[slender skiff]

No lol

And tbh I don't want it to get an s3

[silver robin]

actually nvm

[slender skiff]

As much I love the series

[silver robin]

it would be an s2

[slender skiff]

Yes

[silver robin]

since it was announced as first half second half

[slender skiff]

1. Human (as in our world) tech got advanced enough that they created nanotech and magic
2. Humans began to spread their tech to colonise other planets with their tech, terraforming it if you will
3. Project on Realist world was abandoned halfway (I can't remember why)

And it was left in the custody of what's essentially "admins"

[silver robin]

so it is like truman show but scaled up

[slender skiff]

I guess

[silver robin]

[slender skiff]

I mean the demon lord is fucking ||Miku||

[silver robin]

is that a big spoiler

[slender skiff]

What did you think was going to happen

It's hinted at from very early on

And while it is a big spoiler

It's fucking hilarious

Just open it

[silver robin]

i don't even know who that character is

[silver robin]

wait

is it actually THAT

[slender skiff]

Well not actually that
But something incredibly similar

[silver robin]

ok i was about to say

[slender skiff]

Basically the same kind of being

[boreal oyster]

oh so this another planet (current story setting) inhabitants are originally just there in the first place?

[silver robin]

i need to go slep bye eve1

[whole berry]

What's the latest update on realist hero? I stopped during fuuga and MC war

[boreal oyster]

mc breed

[slender skiff]

LN hasn't started the final war yet in both JP and EN

WN has finished the war

[whole berry]

I stopped because google translate sucks

[slender skiff]

I mean obviously we know who wins

[silver robin]

so the story is finished?

or is it still ongoing in wn

[slender skiff]

Nah
It's all made in the dungeon

WN is still ongoing

[silver robin]

or will they pull a shield hero and differ massively from the wn

oh

[boreal oyster]

whut?

[slender skiff]

The WN only finished the war arc like in the last 1 year?

All living things in the world of realist

Were either created in dungeons
Or descended from beings created in dungeons

[boreal oyster]

made by the earthlings? even the current humans?

[silver robin]

this guy is the only author to continue the wn even though the ln is like 10+ volumes in

[slender skiff]

Yes

Even the current humans

Souma is the sole exception

[boreal oyster]

but the earthlings already left this planet?

[slender skiff]

And I guess his children are half

The earthlings go poof yes

[silver robin]

which volume did the anime stop at

[slender skiff]

4 or 5

[boreal oyster]

guess they just wanna colonise another planet

kek

[slender skiff]

LN is at 17 in both languages

[silver robin]

wrong

come back in 3 weeks

[slender skiff]

Eh close enough

[boreal oyster]

so all creatures
even the human and demons
are but the creation of the earthlings

[slender skiff]

Yes

[silver robin]

i think its 5 based on the chapter names

[slender skiff]

This is the demon lord btw

[boreal oyster]

lmao sentient homunculus

[silver robin]

unless they swapped the order around a bit

[slender skiff]

Oh they did massively lmao

The bridal course arc was supposed to take place after Souma finally confesses to Liscia

Except the anime reverses that

[boreal oyster]

||jumpscare||

[slender skiff]

I mean tell me that's not just ||Miku|| with cat ears and bat wings

[boreal oyster]

holographic

[slender skiff]

That’s right... This planet you’re on now is an extrasolar planet that’s been terraformed. And it’s also a place where many experiments were performed.

They did it to find the human race best suited to this planet for when our population overflowed out of the solar system. As I said earlier, the terraforming on this planet wasn’t as complete as the terraforming they did on planets in the solar system. That’s why they ended up doing experiments on a planetary scale.

Quote from vol 17

[silver robin]

that makes sense then

so it is 4 volumes plus that chapter then

[slender skiff]

And well

We also know when in the future this is

Literally the 22nd century

[silver robin]

i really need to go sleep

bai

[slender skiff]

I mean the real question for me is

Who's number 8?

Is it Juno? Or is it some ||demon||?

Who knows

[boreal oyster]

world won't even survive 2100

[slender skiff]

I mean

2100 is the end of the 21st century...?

And demon lord specifies start of 22nd

[whole berry]

Wasn't the demon lord a cube?

[boreal oyster]

demon lord a shipgirl

[slender skiff]

Nope

It's not

[whole berry]

What's the cube again?

[slender skiff]

Otherwise we would have known from as early as vol 6

An "old one" like tiamat

Which went rogue

Probably cos the demon continent was suffering

[whole berry]

Isn't souma considered as an old one

[slender skiff]

Souma asks this in volume 6 to tiamat

If he is an "even older one"

[boreal oyster]

tiawho

[whole berry]

Dragon lady

[slender skiff]

Tiamat never confirms or denies this

Limited by the system really

The implication is yes, sort of an "even older one"

[slender skiff]

Naden and Ruby's mom

If you don't know who those are well

Maybe you may remember her as Mother Dragon

[whole berry]

Is ruby in the anime?

[slender skiff]

Nada

[whole berry]

Or even naden?

[slender skiff]

Naden and Ruby appear in vol 6

Anime covers till vol 4 only

[whole berry]

Bruh i should reread the novel

[slender skiff]

Namely da da dun

Roroa desu

[whole berry]

WAIT

[slender skiff]

S1 part 2 introduces roroa yes

[whole berry]

Is there a SS about the other timeline?

[slender skiff]

Uhhhhhhhh

Well not in detail

We actually do get an epilogue chapter explaining the former queen's life before giving birth to liscia

So namely the repeated "re-zero-ing"

[whole berry]

I wish the author makes a spin-off about the other souma

[slender skiff]

And how she eventually settled with Albert

That chapter

also explains what happens AFTER she sent the message back to her other self

You are familiar with her powers right

How they work

[whole berry]

It's sending a memory to the past right?

[slender skiff]

"Sending memories to a past self from a different timeline"

So the current timeline continues if she's still alive

[slender skiff]

That same chapter explains what happens after she did the most recent send back

Namely in that timeline with the other Souma

Which they were believed to have bitten the dust

[whole berry]

Idk how they got a contact with naden even with mother dragon with a letter

[slender skiff]

It was the opposite

Tiamat came to visit instead

[whole berry]

[slender skiff]

She said hello in dreamland
She was like yo Souma
I needja to go the the star dragon mountain range

There's someone I'd like you to meet

And then just leaves

Next day he gets a letter saying

Hi we would like to invite you there to participate in the matchmaking ceremony

K thx bye

Well the tone is a bit off

[whole berry]

Huh how to fit all that when there's a civil war tho

[slender skiff]

Oh

Wait you mean in the alternate world

[whole berry]

Yea

[slender skiff]

Let me explain

So basically
While the King and Queen are sitting there surrounded by flames lamenting after their castle, the presumed to be ded Souma and Liscia come back to rescue them. They share that Georg had sacrificed his life to keep them alive

When asked how he got there, he brings up Naden. He says that after being forced to step down and leave the kingdom, he decided to head for the empire, who was very likely to offer him shelter
On the way there they ran into a messenger from tiamat

And the rest probably happened the same way

Though in this case he mentions that his contract with Naden is still provisional and that they haven't sealed the deal yet

[whole berry]

[slender skiff]

And yes they successfully rescue them both

[whole berry]

What volume is this again?

[slender skiff]

And head to lagoon city

Uhhh

Good question

[whole berry]

It's licias first born son or daughter is what i remember

[slender skiff]

Bonus Story: The Happiest Queen of All

Volume 10

It's the same volume as the wedding

Well the first wedding that is

[whole berry]

WAITTT HE MARRIED JUNO?

[slender skiff]

No, he married Juna of course

Well

Not yet? God knows

He only has 7 at the time of the WN

[slender skiff]

Hence why I asked

[whole berry]

I mean the adventurer that he goes with at the beginning

[slender skiff]

Yeah well

He does properly meet Juno as the king

And as of now

Juno regularly visits the castle

And has tea with him and his wives

[whole berry]

[slender skiff]

Uh let me see if I remember which volume was that

Volume 7

After returning to the country arc 3 - the flower that blooms in the field and the bird in the cage

[whole berry]

Bruuuh vol 14-18 confuses me

That's i get when not waiting for the proper translation

[slender skiff]

Any of the fuuga volumes are just fucking confusing

To be fair

[whole berry]

Wait the WB was focused on war

What about the LN?

[slender skiff]

So yeah vol 14 was a snorefest for me

Vol 14 was all about Fuuga conquering the entire league of eastern nations

[whole berry]

I'm checking the illustrations of the LN and I don't remember any of it

[slender skiff]

Including lastania and chima

Vol 15 was the trip to the spirit kingdom and the plague there

So the medical alliance in other words

[whole berry]

Ah the aircraft carrier one

Whut about 16?

[slender skiff]

Quite sure that was vol 13

16 is Fuuga vs Maria

In other words the ||Fall of the Empire||

17 was the trip to the demon lands

18 shd be the war between Souma and Fuuga

[whole berry]

Tbh all i remember is fuuga conquering a large portion of the continent

[slender skiff]

Fuuga conquers the ENTIRE eastern nations

Successfully fends of a Nothung counter attack

[whole berry]

So the cube appears during the demon land right?

[slender skiff]

Takes back large swathes of the demon lord domain

Not the cube but something else

Similar

[whole berry]

Some mushrooms?

[slender skiff]

Yes

I think so
