    I'm Not a Villainess!! Just Because I Can Control Darkness Doesn't Mean I'm a Bad Person!

    The change of colour seems like a bad idea for practical reasons. A great author can make a story that stands out by being great. Others have little choice but to make average stories that follow all the tropes in order to not alienate readers and include some kinda hook. In this case her dark...

    Sousou no Frieren

    @vodkavodka I strongly disagree, this is a clear 8/10 no matter how I look at it. But I agree that the fact that people are most likely to only vote if they love or hate something, making 10 and 0 (or 1 if there's no 0) the most common rating number is certainly leading to some skewed results. A...

    Sousou no Frieren

    @Acciunt I think the "fresh take on fantasy, not borrowing much if anything from the mountains of cookie cutter ones out today" depends on the definition. I'll definitively agree to the fresh take since the old tropes are mixed up in new and interesting ways, but as far as borrowing things goes...

    Isekai Yuusha G-SHINE

    Well, I've seen this idea before, but this time it's not a combiner made from several smaler anmial robots so it's different.

    A Tale of the Secret Saint

    @mrranodmguys At least on the site of the scanlator, not sure if it's already uploaded somewhere else. On this site if you click on the name of the scanlators, it shows information about them including links, if available. I'd directly post a link but I don't remember if the forum rules allow...

    A Tale of the Secret Saint

    @bloodfire6000 Chapter 10 is translated, it only hasn't been uploaded on this site yet.

    Tearmoon Empire

    @Aelfric Technically you can't seperate the wars and the taxing from the royalty and nobility, that only leaves the bad harvests. Anyway I said that she'd probably only be banished or imprisoned because she stood out in a positive way, the comparison to the French revolution is not good in this...

    Tearmoon Empire

    As of chapter 10 she still has a long way to go to avoid the guillotine? To that seems odd, with all she did so far she should at least be close to be the only royal not beheaded but imprisoned for life or banished.

    Moto Saikyou no Kenshi wa, Isekai Mahou ni Akogareru

    Well the looks aren't just typical asian angel depiction but also Valkyrie depiction, especially due to the lack of a halo. But if the original purpose of both is considered, it's pretty mu8ch only the Angel that's an all purpose servant that may guard a ruin. Also I hope it's an Angel since...

    The Lady and the Beast

    @hedgemoney I can't think of a single Japanese comic I'm actually reading where that is true, than again that may just be because I never continued to read stories like that due to personal preferences. That being said while I like "strong female leads" to me it doesn't have to be physical arts...

    Madougushi Dahliya wa Utsumukanai ~Dahliya Wilts No More~

    As for chapter 5, I'm quite sure the word cuckolded was used wrong in this context, it seems he was cheated on in the traditional sense. I'm upset that I know the meaning of the root word cuck.

    Isekai de Mofumofu Nadenade Suru Tame ni Ganbattemasu.

    So, the north it freezing cold? Another Fantasy Manga taking place on a continent in the northern hemisphere? What are the odds, certainly realistically they should be less than 50%? I guss manga authors tend to be biased and free of any creativity.

    Beware the Villainess!

    Wait, just now in chapter 41 she was talking about the source novel. Was it always a novel and not a game? I may not have paid attention, but didn't the story have multiple endings, like a bad ending with the creepy merchant? How could this be the case with a game, is it a chose your own...

    Sousou no Frieren

    @Ozys Journey based traditional fantasy... Well as far as finished series go, what comes to mind immediately would be: -"Record of Loddoss War: The Grey Witch" (the obvious choice of the most influential genre codifier) -Half the other Redcord of Lodoss War comics(don't remember all the names)...

    Sousou no Frieren

    @Ozys Seeing that I don't know the series, I don't know what they share in common, are you interested in the story telling style and pacing, or aspects of the thematic content, and if so which aspects exactly?
  17. N

    Sousou no Frieren

    @NextUniverse I'd say it is, slow paced stories are not for everybody, but this series is quite well done compared to others of it's style and genre, and that's how it has to be rated (you have to compare apples to other apples, but that doesn't mean everybody is gonna like apples, even great...

    Class ga Isekai Shoukan sareta Naka Ore dake Nokotta n desu ga

    Just once I want the God(dess) of an summon ritual Isekai story to introduce himself (herself) as the God(dess) of lazyness and leaching of others. Or at least for the summoning to be done by a priest of such a deiety.

    Shoukan sareta Kenja wa Isekai wo Yuku

    So, the gamer had to explain the concept of a mule to other gamers? Stupidity like that just breaks immersion and is the reason you should just do regular fantasy instead of Isekai or or virtual reality stories. If a main character from earth is acting like a retarded alien for no reason, you...
