Didn't read the chapter until now, so sorry for the late response.
@Qelix He just did kill them "with witnesses that claim [his] innocence". He has multiple witnesses that saw the grain merchants with the stolen grain. He gave them a trial (albeit a very short one), had normal citizens provide...
I really liked how the author used the item box skill for combat in a way that is rarely seen. It shows creativity by both the writer and the MC. It wasn't just about the storing and taking out, but about using it to offset the disadvantage of a large swing from a heavy weapon, and allowing him...
I'm amazed at so many comments, and nobody mentioned how Kashiwada trolled Tabuchi with that swimsuit. I literally laughed out loud at that part. That was probably the best part of this chapter for me.
I also got a kick out of his friends waiting for him outside of the store, laughing at him...
@Sonaldo You know this chapter has a table of contents for the whole volume, right? One of those chapters specifically references her brother, so either that chapter or the one before would be when he shows up.
@ThePrincessOfTheRFA
I certainly don't think it was meant to offend Muslims. My guess is that it took the names from some of the biggest religions in the world, and used them without having deeper knowledge of the various religions. I would assume Christianity, rather that Judaism, as...
This thread made me laugh a lot. So many "I was rooting for incest, but I suppose a stalker works, too" and some "I'm so glad we got a stalker so the MC can have a healthy relationship instead of the incest others were hoping for" comments.
That being said, I also like the stalker girl. I...
@blackLuna
Sorry the reply is a bit delayed, but I also noticed the line, and it isn't an error; it is just referring to two different wars. Both Napoleon and Hitler tried to invade Russia, and met with disaster due to not being prepared for Russian winters. Personally, I thought it was a cool...
@banjomarx
Your point doesn't stand, though, because in neither chapter did she say they were good guys. The closest she got was saying that he should decide who was a good guy or bad guy from direct interaction, instead of just what others say. That doesn't mean they are "good" though. What...
@elixir6 (and by extension: @NoSoup & @BanditHadron as well)
That's actually one of my big problems with the MC's current behavior right now. Just recently she rebuked Akari for not treating Aqua like a person, but just a video game character. She stated that this isn't a video game, anymore...
@Oeconomist
I was pointing out that, even if that quote was what was referred to in the "called it" post, that the quote hadn't really called anything. I'm sorry if I didn't make that clear enough. I was trying to especially point out the part about the SLA being "GOOD guys" because I think...
@Oeconomist
I think what @banjomarx is referring to is their comment from chapter 23 which said: "or what if it turns out that theyre actually trying to save the spirits from being overused by the impudent human mages who are killing spirits... maybe theyre the GOOD guys dun dun DUN! i have no...
@okabekudo
He's often been careless, even from the start. He gets very cocky sometimes, and lets his guard down. His plausible deniability with Sera has lasted a lot longer than he could keep it up with Hattori, after all. he just isn't normally around detectives smart enough to put two and two...
There seem to be a few things going on here, that seem to be getting mixed together, but are actually a bit separated.
1) The trauma occurs, and the MC seems to subconsciously activate magic to protect himself from the trauma. (While it wasn't directly stated that it was magic, yet, but in a...
@hazzack
If you look closely at the top of page 3, you can a little bit of a red car, a bumper, and one tire, barreling down on the chick that is in the middle of the road. Then croc dove and shoved the chick out of the way, onto the sidewalk, but wasn't able to avoid the car like he did the...
@dillydoo @Caul Yes, in fact there are multiple parts of that word that make no sense, etymologically, being just thrown in there for length. "Hippo" means "horse" for example ("hippopotamus"="river horse", and often the troll version even includes the "poto" from it), and "monstro" for...
@IMACOP (Sorry for the delayed response, as I just saw your reply.)
There is no concrete evidence of it being the case, but I think that things making more sense if it is the case, and with no confirmation that it isn't (since the mental gymnastics or other dismissals he might offer would be...
I really hope the "competition" is a competition between different guild branches for some sort of bragging rights, and that they just picked the MC to be their representative, and they have to hurry to get him to replace their previous one. Since the old man talked about the prestige of the...
@sirflimflam @IMACOP
If we see it as the MC suspecting that maybe they are real, and trying hard to make sure they survive in case they are, then it can make more sense. This would also explain why he wants to try so hard to convince himself it is still just a game, though, no matter how real...
