    Kouritsu-Chuu Madoushi, Daini no Jinsei de Madou wo Kiwameru - Vol. 8 Ch. 48 - Beginning Of The End

    @TNT261 I disagree. It's generally bad writing, but it doesn't mean you can't make exceptions. In this case, the rules we know are the rules Zeff knows. (Actually less than that, we discover his knowledge of magic as he uses it, so there might be more he knows but we don't, yet.) So there is...

    Kouritsu-Chuu Madoushi, Daini no Jinsei de Madou wo Kiwameru - Vol. 8 Ch. 48 - Beginning Of The End

    @TNT261 and @Rhin It's not bad writing to introduce something during the story. You are presented with the rules of magic as Zeff knows them and he's probably one of the most knowledgeable given that he's had a whole lifetime to learn before starting again. It doesn't mean that's all there is to...

    Hyouken no Majutsushi ga Sekai o Suberu - Sekai Saikyou no Majutsushi de Aru Shounen wa, Majutsu Gakuin ga Nyuugaku Suru - Vol. 2 Ch. 14 - Cooking Sh…

    Muscle club: I'm sorry, your club actually does something amazing that I just discovered here. I changed my opinion of you. Garden club: And your club activities... actually contributed nothing to all this. I still hate you. That would have been hilarious. Instead, we had this cute little...

    Kouritsu-Chuu Madoushi, Daini no Jinsei de Madou wo Kiwameru - Vol. 8 Ch. 48 - Beginning Of The End

    @Rhin I actually disagree that it's "bad writing". The level caps exist for the magic system as they know it. So it was reasonable of the magic association to think that he wouldn't be able to grow past a certain point even if he tried. Even more so with his magic sealed. But this guy reinvented...

    Mahousekai no Uketsukejou ni Naritai desu! - Vol. 3 Ch. 10

    This chapter is a disappointment. I'm not going to drop the manga yet, but I expect things to be better later on. My gripe is not how Nunaly is always second to Alves. That is the whole point of the manga so far. My problem is that she is presented as a strong and skilled mage in her own right...

    Kyoukai Meikyuu to Ikai no Majutsushi - Vol. 5 Ch. 27 - The Siblings of the Royal Palace

    Her: "it's a trap." Him: "yes, mine. And you fell for it." Any other development would be dumb. He knows, or at least heavily suspects, that she provided this drug to his evil step-mother. It would be stupid if he didn't take precautions against this. Because the tea was so totally not...

    The Weakest Occupation "Blacksmith," but It's Actually the Strongest

    OK, first chapter makes it a little understandable why "blacksmith" is being looked down on. The random god-given job is a setup that's pretty common in fantasy manga, but it's stupid. Even stupider here because of the first point. But let's roll with it. The problem is how people think...

    I'm Not a Villainess!! Just Because I Can Control Darkness Doesn't Mean I'm a Bad Person! - Vol. 2 Ch. 12.1 - Publisher 2nd Edition

    @CardiBSlays I don't want to bite, however I can't help but be curious. Why is it wrong? You can't just assert it and leave it at that. It's no better than affirming "X people are superior" and try to enforce it by law. (Replace X with a color, sexual orientation, religion or whatever else.) So...

    The Useless Tamer Will Turn into the Top Unconsciously by My Previous Life Knowledge - Ch. 1

    I have just one big problem with the first chapter... The MC will start in that new world with top-tier gear. Even without his previous tamed beasts (then again, I don't know that, just speculating) it seems he still has access to his "storage", which means he has the magic super-sonic staff and...

    I'm Not a Villainess!! Just Because I Can Control Darkness Doesn't Mean I'm a Bad Person! - Vol. 2 Ch. 12.1 - Publisher 2nd Edition

    @CardiBSlays I completely disagree with your interpretation, but "interpretation" is the word here. I don't know the author's intent, and neither do you, but what you're interpreting is that the author depiction is "white = good; black = evil". You're not reading the same story as I do. 1...

    Max Level Returner

    @exbinary My thoughts exactly. Overall below average. Though I've seen worse, I don't feel like spending time on it past this point, as little as it is.

    I'm Not a Villainess!! Just Because I Can Control Darkness Doesn't Mean I'm a Bad Person! - Vol. 2 Ch. 12.1 - Publisher 2nd Edition

    @Chiiiinnnnggggg No, the point of the story doesn't really change because this was never about "skin color". The color change was a visual trope used to give an obvious indication that she is now also blessed by the Light Spirit... King? The point was always about blessings and how she had the...

    I'm Not a Villainess!! Just Because I Can Control Darkness Doesn't Mean I'm a Bad Person! - Vol. 2 Ch. 12

    Only subject that matters in this chapter is... the character's skin color? Reading the comments, that is all people cared about. For me, that's a bit sad as I liked the distinct look she had, but I don't see this as "whitewashing" or anything of the sort. She never was racially "black" to begin...

    Kaettekita Motoyuusha - Ch. 4.3

    "I did a background check on you." Well, he got invited into the royal palace... To train a hero... And is now alone with the princess... I'd say a background check is the least they could do. And frankly, he doesn't have much of a background in this world, which should make him super-suspicious.

    Shi ni Modori, Subete wo Sukuu Tame ni Saikyou he to Itaru - Vol. 3 Ch. 20

    This manga is pretty good to this point. MC is not completely overpowered. He got strong using past life memories and intense training from childhood, but not to the point of single-handedly defeating the future demon king. "Power of friendship" doesn't mean "I get individually stronger because...

    Even Given the Worthless "Appraiser" Class, I'm Actually the Strongest - Unsurpassed with the Strongest [Divine Eye] Trained in the Abyss - Ch. 3.2 -…

    @OsoJr There was a manga that actually played on this. The MC got the power of telekinesis, limited to the approximate mass of a baseball. Seems weak, right? He slowly realized that "mass" was indeed the only limit. Use a handful of sand as a shredder, shoot items like a railgun, etc. Basically...

    The Revenge of the Soul Eater

    Too bad, I kind of liked how they started building a proper background for the MC before making him OP. Too many mangas recently make a two-to-ten pages background, make the protagonist OP by the end of first chapter and then he strolls through everything with little to no effort. However...

    Even Given the Worthless "Appraiser" Class, I'm Actually the Strongest - Unsurpassed with the Strongest [Divine Eye] Trained in the Abyss - Ch. 3.2 -…

    Well, this is another one of those misleading titles, as predicted. "X is weak, but actually the strongest"... because an unrelated cheat is added on top of the actually weak X. That reminds me of the same one with the weak "healer" job that becomes op... because of a chest that lets the mc...

    The Weakest Occupation "Blacksmith," but It's Actually the Strongest

    Haven't read it yet, but... seriously??? Of all the "weakest" tropes, we're going with blacksmith here? At least, this class has fighting potential. Hammering a piece of metal and hammering a moving target are different, but if you can forge, you at least have the strength to deal serious...

    Konyakuhaki Sareta Reijou wo Hirotta Ore ga, Ikenai Koto wo Oshiekomu

    Seriously, is there some award for the longest title or something? I can't believe they can be that bad by their own choice.
