Hachinan tte, Sore wa Nai Deshou! - Vol. 6 Ch. 33

It's the generic asspulls of "I just need to overpower said magic thing with magic strength" and we know that by plot, he'll win because the plot requires him to have more magical strength than the adversary. But there's no way to conceptualize what that means. And there's also no illusion of consequence/accomplishment here because he's being tested on something that's basically a stat check in a video game.

It's lazy writing. Then again, we knew that because of the genre it was in, but sometimes it can be enjoyable if the rest of the series is done well/fun. But when you dwell on the part of your story that is generic, bad, and not fleshed out, this chapter is the result.
 
What's particularly bad about this, is that for the golem to be able to maintain it's own fire, it should be well protected/immune to it, so what the hell does the MC's flame do to it? I expect they'll do something like a gas explosion, but that's just stupid.
 
@ajwf
Decently put. And it somehow becomes even worse, because the artist shows us that there's nothing stopping them from just going to the side with a shield, where the 'breath' doesn't touch, and just blast it from there.
 
@Zael That makes no sense, a tank or a flame thrower is no more protected against it's own type of attacks than anything else.
 
can this fucking arc just end? it feels like this fight has lasted for a year now...

So... why don't they just move to the side, and then let the dragon (wich can't move as far as we know) destroy the golems ?
Better yet, they had a break in those stairs, why didn't they get a good night sleep ? it was safe.
 
@Doenyon they are mythril golems that resist magic. They would end up cornered near the dragon (or behind it) and the golems would take up all the room. If anything else, the dragon could just stop its breath as there are no enemies on front of it (only golems) and they just gave up ground for more golems to surround them.
 
@shionsinX and that's somehow worse than being cornered by both golems AND the dragon's breath ?
Also, the golem have been affected by their magic, just less than usual.
 
@Doenyon fighting the golems right at the entrance path limits how many golems they have to deal with and blocks the path of the ranged ones (they have to come in line all the time). Their idea against the dragon was to hold off like the first one, just endurance with little risks.
It went differently later but their plan was the same at first.
 
@hank Late to the party, but the problem with cliffhangers with slow releases such as this, is that when a new chapter finally arrives we want something fulfilling, and when mangas like this and (that one with s ranked dude with a slime and elven maid) keep giving chapters with the same fight without much actually happening cliffhangers is a smack in the face, since they show that something interesting could have happened but was withheld from us.
 
@Malte very late to the party, woah.

Anyways, I address that. It shouldn't matter what the gap is between releases of the individual chapters. If you don't like waiting for the resolution, then wait for the volume release or for the series itself to finish. The magazine is the Kickstarter/beta to the volume's actual product.
