Man, for all Draluc's shenanigans, I feel bad for him. He's just an old gentlemen minding his own business until some cocky hotshot came to his castle and blew it up. Ronaldo isn't even acknowledging that it was partially his fault.
@blablablub Earth stated he couldnt figure out if the demon king is a man or woman on his first meeting, so I'm guessing the design is intentionally androgynous. I think the original JP refered the demon king with gender neutral pronouns too.
edit: nvm i misread the post
Author really did a good job of overplaying the "I have never seen a girl be so uninsterested at me before, therefore I am interested at her now" trope. This prince has every single attribute cranked up to the max to the point of absolute disgust.
@icarushector it's like bringing an AK-47 to a gunfight, but noble jackass hotshot doesnt know what he's doing and Tweight's gun is a sniper rifle, and he's a quickscoper.
One can only wonder the result of giving a monster a fully functional driver belt.
I do hope Douji is able to be saved but judging how the author has been treating the monsters, they mostly end up dead, regardless of their alignment.
@Quanyquan18 Those are precisely it. Quite literally ALL of them are "some japanese person gets thrown to another world based on a game they played while alive and now they're some sort of an overlord (or at least a very powerful entity)". ALL of them follow the same exact base premise, and ALL...
So what's the endgame for our Swarm Queen? Obliterating slave traders and a bandit(?) organization seems to be a short-term goal, but I really don't want a rehash of "Evil Overlord Attempts to Dominate the World" again.
well, the premise bought me in. hoping it would somehow be executed better than his previous work. Shonen A wasn't 'bad' but it left me with a fuckton of questions on how it was handled.
@Rickymex Sansui is only held by Rain's wellbeing, as the house he's serving is the one actually providing her needs (shelter, food, edication, etc). The moment Rain grows up into an adult and becomes independent, Sansui might as well leave and restarts his training back in the forest, unless...
Also note that the prince's main concern is his relationship with Shuli after the result of this trial. He doesn't care about Jeremy or even the implications of whatever the fuck happens afterwards.
If that's not a telltale sign of a sociopath I dont know what is.
