[davremedy]

dumb and troublesome woman......... sigh... , why all woman in isekai genre always need to be protected

 

[xyzzy]

I hate being right

 

[monkey123]

This MC will also get the title "little girl killer". ?

 

[Sh4dey]

@davremedy Holy crap That's like a 9 yr old frail girl being told to fight Zangief and win! That kid has no choice but need to be protected Or Are you a fan of Goblin Slayer rules and don't like happy endings when then the hero saves the day? lol

 

[Kiriha]

So this dude basically traded unique skill for maxed out stats, potentially even limit breaking? That or protection being passive skill and full auto lmao

 

[Wolvenworks]

so his power's like an auto-aimbot-godmode thing?

 

[VanJosh]

Sooo short. Well I get the skill [Protection], it means that to protect one is bestowed with the strength so great that any problem or evils will be annihilated.

 

[Homelander]

Perhaps that glasses mage is following mc?

A note in response to the translator's concerns, as expressed in the translation noteon page 19:

The two raw text fragments do indeed use a Japanese idiom, "to brush away sparks", that means "to take care of threats".

Page 3:
自分にかかった火の粉は自分で払えと… [jibun ni kakatta hinoko wa jibun de harae to...] = You should brush off your own sparks (lit.) = You should fix your own problems.

The translation has "You need to learn to protect yourself", which I think is fine. It carries the same general meaning, and flows better than a more literal translation.

Page 16:
お前を守ったんじゃない [omae o mamotta n ja nai] = I didn't protect you

The translation has "I wasn't protecting you", which is perfect.

俺に降りかかってきた火の粉を振り払っただけだ [ore ni furikakatte kita hinoko o furiharatta dake da] = I was just shaking off sparks that had fallen on me (lit.) = I was just protecting myself

The translation has "I was protecting myself", which is fine.

To sum it up, quality control says: 問題なし.

Wait, did baldy get cut by the shrapnel?

[JaneJeon]

@davremedy https://mangadex.org/title/21944/yasei-no-last-boss-ga-arawareta comes to my mind as an exception.

[conscript117]

OMG PAGE 17!!! IM GONNA DIE OF HHNNNNGG.

 

[bushwhacker2k]

"Although I did get into a fight, I viciously beat the crap out of that punk."

When? Did I miss a page? I didn't see a single point of damage inflicted by protag.

Is this one of those isekai tropes, where they create imaginated problems where there are none?

 

[UnknownSaint111]

Wtf is wrong with her? Try to consider how he feels. Now he’s in a compromised position if his abilities get leaked out...

 

[Snivix]

battle plan: put him on a catapult and launch him at the enemies.

 

[kwendy]

Stop making weapons from crappy yet expensive metals and forge some iron alredy =_=
