@SomeGuy1 Glad I wasn't the only one expecting that.

So I'm guessing we're going to need the hamster and banana at this rate.

@Richman At least we wouldn't have to deal with 50 or chapters so the author can give the entire harem a happy ending because they fucked it up the first time.

@Hollow7F Never thought I'd see an SBG link here of all places. That said, your comment is both right and wrong; unless you're buying a custom, one-off piece, anything marketed as "Damascus" these days is crap stamped out in a factory and given an acid etch to bring out the pattern. But Damascus...

@rrrrrrr Look at the excesses of nobility throughout history and you'll see that this "evil for the sake of evil that makes 0 sense" is honestly either par for the course or barely a blip on the radar, depending on time period.

So, just glossing over how there's like an 80% chance the other dude just offed himself... 'Bout time something happened between those two.

@icekatze "Look what I created! Worship me, bitches!" Or so I assume.

@Sep10trion Pride, basically. They're so sure of their own importance and place in the world that they can't comprehend that someone wouldn't be interested in them, which they find offensive.

@Blazer168 They all want to be first, so they're sabotaging each other.

@Willie29 Depends on the specific legends we're talking about, but lamia tend to be female only (and so need males of other species to reproduce), while naga can be male or female and often tend to be more on the monstrous side; popular culture also often depicts nagas as being fully scaled with...

@Riger It's no different from movie scenes that are "pitch black" with the characters stumbling around blind, yet it's bright enough to see the actors perfectly, so I don't see the problem.

@greatninja3 Well, I mean, normal armor pretty good at cooking you alive with how easy it is to get heatstroke, so its strength probably outweighs its demerits.

@Primetimecrime If you look at the title, you'll see "(first part)"; it's become depressingly common for publishers to only release parts of a chapter at a time so they can turn bi-weekly or monthly series into weekly series.

@youdontknow It's possible, but I think it's more likely that whoever named her was Chinese (though the two aren't mutually exclusive, of course).

@Richman I would definitely recommend them, though I'd suggest starting with Elantris, Warbreaker, and the original Mistborn trilogy, as those are his earliest published works; he's currently at work on his epic series, The Stormlight Archive, which is going to be absolutely massive if it...

@Richman Percy Jackson and crew were lucky they never actually really needed to use their weapons against mundane humans, though. If you've ever read Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson, you'd have an idea of why narrowing the sword's usefulness to such a degree can be a bad idea. If you're...

@ShionSinX Knowing the cost of living and average income are worth nothing if you don't have a frame of reference, which is what converting it to yen does for these characters. You can tell me all day that someone in Egypt makes 400 pounds an hour and that a loaf of bread costs 31.60 and none of...

@ShionSinX "Oh, hey, it's a completely foreign currency that I only have a basic understanding of; by converting it to something I'm familiar with, I can get a good idea of what things are worth!" - Anyone dealing with a foreign currency ever. Seriously not that hard to understand.

@trenslime Horned rabbits are typically depicted as being incredibly fast, so the unicorn approach makes them act like a giant arrow with the weight of a (small) bowling ball and it makes them more of a ready threat that would need to be exterminated. These guys are probably somewhat like deer...

@Not_Just_A_Reader It's a pretty common trope in fantasy stories, particularly isekai, for potions to taste absolutely awful; I think it was Legend, the one with Rei and his summoned gryphon Set, that had them be so horrendous tasting that it killed your tastebuds for like two weeks solid and...
