@CloudySky No. Anyone who plays Genshin should feel bad about themselves. It takes a seriously brainless person to enjoy it, and it shows (in both the manga and this thread).

@Espadas That just isn't true at all. "Sidekicks" are the annoying ones like 80% of the time and most comment threads reflect that. Obnoxious perverts, angry lesbians, jealous siblings, etc are all side characters that are complained about more than most other tropes.

@Pallington There are so many problems with this argument that listing them all would be a challenge (and a chore), but I'll give a few. We literally do not have the arable land to keep up with the growing meat consumption in the less developed world, so money means fuck-all for the future even...

@Lefuz Wow, you weren't kidding. Hadn't heard of the manga so I looked it up and the first result is his website where he translates manga and complains about how much he hates the characters. That's fucking insane. He doesn't need a sense of humor, he needs a therapist.

@FredFriendly I genuinely can't tell whether this account is playing a character. Every single time I read one of your comments it's just the perfect caricature of a neckbeard. If your account is a joke, please make it funnier. It's just kinda boring to read as is.

@Raudhbjorn "New technology X is more expensive than old technology Y" is a very tired argument. Obviously new technologies are going to be more expensive at first, but usually not for long. Everybody knows that the cost has been dramatically falling, and Oxford had a study a while back that...

Why does everybody fearmonger over lab-grown meat? It's virtually essential to feed the developing population of the world and nothing about it is worse. People are so paranoid about every single new technology for no reason at all.

@yuzuyuzu She didn't blindly follow them. She already agreed with their stance (she had called the nobles useless before) and she still questioned the mentor, asking how it would pay off, which they gave a reasonable answer for (and no shit it's going to pay off if you hire people based on...

@Meridis She also shows personal disgust for the lazy nobles in this chapter, so it's clear she was interested in better workers before she was ever "manipulated" into this position. It just genuinely blows my mind how every single person in this thread (bar you) could be such a moron. These are...

@Owyn It's like nobody here knows fucking anything about supporting an argument. I'm not asking what you think about her. I'm asking WHY. What has she done that shows a lack of street smarts? The only important decision I noticed in this chapter is that she's valuing skill over prestige for...

@yuzuyuzu The platitudes about education not mattering are wrong more often than not, but I'm not here to argue about which type of "smarts" is important. All you did was explain the terms to me, lol. I'm not asking for the definition, just asking what actions of hers were dumb. What did she do...

@Meridis I feel like this is the answer. Author is portraying an obviously good claim (valuing competency over rank) as bad and most everybody in the comments ironically displays their naivety by taking the author's words at face value and calling the characters naive for believing said good...

@yuzuyuzu @panch_magic Can you guys explain how exactly she's being book smart but not street smart here? I haven't paying that much attention to this manga, but like none of the actions in this chapter seem that dumb to me.

@sirflimflam Ignoring the fact that your entire comment is predicated on a very obvious false dichotomy, calling this a "story" is a fucking stretch. It's pretty unfunny, but it's clearly just a gag comedy and you're talking as if it's some soap opera. People will laugh at characters being curb...

@zer0answers Right, he could have accomplished literally nothing by taking a fight that we (apparently) all know he doesn't win. Punching into a crowd that can fuck you up is such a great idea. I'm glad we've established that you have tons of street smarts when it comes to fighting and you...

@Mrina If you think he's weak now, you clearly expect him to be OP. He didn't become weak, he just showed that he has a weakness, which is normal for anybody who isn't OP. In the arena and chapter 24 he's in a 1v1 with a weapon. It isn't even close to the same as an unarmed surprise attack from...

@zer0answers You'd have to be pretty autistic to not realize that comment was tongue-in-cheek. It's a figure of speech to say you shouldn't be asking for tropes from the bottom of the barrel. If you think anybody could beat a crowd with that many people in it just because they've been training...

@zer0answers It makes no sense that a massive crowd of people with their life on the line was able to subdue a bare-handed guy who's good at piloting. Right. Go back to reading isekai.

Edit: This shit site double-posted and now I can't delete the second one. Nice.

@Mrina You've clearly read too many stories about OP characters with no weaknesses at all. The protagonist is good at strategy and piloting and not much else. He wins with good gear and good planning. He's not the type that just fends off several people with his bare fists. And why the fuck...
