"Can't believe I'm serving this madman" Not a madman, no. Worse than a madman, a realist.

You can't have "Doom on a Stick" here.

Blame Japan everybody!

 

[StinG98]

His enemies are so stupid for taking the bait...

 

[Kayriel]

Bitchy whiners in these comments: NOT A JAPANESE SWORD IN MY JAPANESE MANGA! How could this be?! Why not a Western weapon that never existed in Japan!

 

[lupus_in_fabula]

So we can have western firearms in japanese isekai manga but not western medieval weapons.
Seems legit.

@Kayriel
I know right.
Basically:
Katana exists in Isekai story before even revealing it's place in the plot:
"REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! NOT A JAPANESE CULTURAL ICON IN MY JAPANESE MEDIA! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"

 

[Koji]

Superior nippon steel folded over 1000 times

 

[TheMode]

UNBREAKABLE STEEEEL

 

[firosahoge]

Alright complainers, here is the gem you've been waiting for. This manga rocks!

 

[Wickedpwns]

Oh hey, a katana...

I did not expect him to use a great axe or hammer, but I would have liked a spear. I wonder if Dragon Quest's sword-wielding heroes has become the definition of a MC for a lot of these creators. If it's not a katana/sword then they tend to go the agility route with daggers or bow. It just seems there is not a lot of weapon variety in manga.

@Rheeve @Kayriel Katana in a japanese manga isn't what pisses me off. It's shit eating idolatric nonsense that reads like the first entry in this list:

It's like identifying a Mary Sue; there's no one "tell" that is a guarantor, only a series of points that in combination confer that status. Likewise, series earn good or bad status through a series of notable developments. The fanwanking of GRORIOUS NIPPON STEEL is a bad notable development.
