Abel should have learned from Lucy and her kind and just razed her house to the ground. What a heartless bitch... :/

@deathmailrock These manga might be taking their cues from RPGs, but 90% of the stuff in the classic JRPGs was lifted directly from early editions of the D&D tabletop RPGs (like orcs having pig faces and kobolds being dog-like). And, of course, D&D borrowed heavily from J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings and the fantasy renaissance that spring up around that.

If a story relies on a status screen, then sure, it’s probably based on JRPGs. But if it doesn’t, then there’s plenty of other well-established stuff it could be drawing from.

In the end, it all comes down to a simple truth: “There are no new ideas. What matters is what you do with them.”

@Darketower At this point, I think these RPG based stories are just getting more influence from other RPG web novels at this point.

This is "The Irregular of the Royal Academy of Magic" X "The Reincarnation Magician of the Inferior Eyes"

I mean this wouldn't be weird if these series were based off the same source material, but they aren't, are they?

jesus christ, I feel like I've read this prologue for the fifth time. Do mangakas really not care if they plagiarize each other?

im pretty sure this is the past of abel in 'The Reincarnation Magician of the Inferior Eyes' so why does this scene seem similar like ive seen it before
