@theoww The fact is, the JMSDF didn't have that kind of tugboat with them at the time, and it would take way too long for them to send one over from Japan before the Parpaldian fleet arrived, so there's that.

@AMetroid "If they rolled up one of their destroyers to a major city and said that one of Japan's ships could sink 20 of theirs and we'd like to open diplomatic relations, then you'd have a much stronger argument blaming the Palpardian Empire for not understanding Japan's superiority." So...

@tonie Of course they're superior. I don't do re-draws and my translations are only fair at best. And as an apology for unintentionally sniping their work, I deleted my version.

@AMetroid Okay... let's say an alien race comes to Earth and begins destroying a few cities, say Los Angeles, Leningrad, Winnipeg, Berlin, etc. Now in comparison to a population of over 7 billion, the population of a few cities is small potatoes. Say they blow up the city where your family...

@AMetroid Ever saw that original Star Trek episode, A Taste of Armageddon? That's when Captain Kirk and the Enterprise tried to establish diplomatic relations with a planet that was having a computerized war for over 500 years with its neighbor, and the Enterprise was declared a 'casualty' of...

@optiso Gunboat diplomacy is just a show of force at its core, specifically a show of naval force and has its origins toward foreign policy. Yes, it is true that there have been examples of this type of display in ancient history, but the term "gunboat diplomacy" did not begin until the 19th...

@AMetroid Actually they are pretty evil. For the first thing, as they stated in an earlier chapter, as a superpower, they expect to have extraterritoriality. In other words, any of their citizens can commit any crime on foreign soil, without having to worry about the consequences or be...

@theowww Do you have any idea how much a JMSDF Coast Guard ship weighs? Even when empty, the ship weighs in at over 7,000 tons. Tugboat engines actually have more horsepower than some destroyers and cruisers. Besides, the reason why they couldn't use the escort destroyers to tow it is because...

Nice! Better than what I could do and I am really busy at this point, so good job!

@BatuMenhir Humans have an average lifespan of 80 years, so Fel figured that he and Mukouda would only be together for a few decades at best.

The translations and scans are pretty close to the Light Novels so I give it a thumbs up!

@CheerTheDead There are two versions, the Web Novel (WN) and the Light Novel (LN). The web novel can be found here. Or the most recent version here. The Light Novel has not been picked up or published with an English version.

For those who think Iginis or Igneal as she is referred to in the Light Novel, is a bitchy and self-centered person...

@Miserys_End That was Goleo who knocked out the guard, not Touji.

@AnonMasterRace7898 The cloak is stated to make it hard for monsters to detect him, not impossible. After all, you need to be at Level 10 to use it, so it probably doesn't work as well against higher-level monsters.

@allen133194 I don't even know why @dereth is letting something so small as 'itadakimatsu' mean anything. That's what it said and that's what it was translated as in the manga. If he wants to complain then let him complain to the manga writer.

@dereth To quote Mangon "Don't be a dick, be a dude." We're talking about a guy who died and was reincarnated in another world. So basically, it's anything goes. And I've read the LN of this series. He does the same thing. Does it matter? No.

@dereth You sure you want to scream at the guy who translated this? Why not scream at an American movie that waves the star-spangled flag all the time? How about a British movie that goes on about tea time? Oh, I know, why not complain about a certain Japanese anime about cooking and all the...

@dereth If you're going to call them 'fucking Japanese' then DON'T read manga or watch anime.

Considering that his production costs are basically zero, any amount he gets is 100% profit. Meyer did say he could get up to 100,00 at the LEAST, depending on the market value of those swords. And she's one of the few people he can trust knowing about his production skills. So there's really...
