The manga had some harem tendencies at the start. But instead the MC actually married only one of the girls. Pretty refrshing if you ask me. Harems were already a cliché before the isekai fad, and the isekai genre made it a boring and tired cliché. Glad to see some manga are starting to break away from that.
boy are you about to be disappointed then.
Lmao
Well...shit... Not that it'll stop me from reading, but it's still disappointing.
EXTRA: At least he actually married one, and it isn't just a harem of girls only ever going after him but it never getting anywhere? ^^;;
no they just confirmed at the end of this chapter that they're going to try to get him to marry the princess too, since he's got a title now and I guess polygamy isn't an issue here.
Which is a better alternative to her dying because she had to marry a psychopath.
True.
I read the lightnovel then dropped them halfway.
Warning alert.
This manga contains polygamy
So many plot holes it's unbelievable. How did the kid get past security and on stage in the first place? If a human girl hit a kid like that it would be perfectly understandable, but she's artificially created so it's suddenly an A.I. gone haywire? Alkaid only JUST got a body, so she was basically a newborn. Yet they left her alone for god knows how long without any supervision. They specifically gave her a "likes to eat a lot" setting, combined with her never having been able to actually eat before. Then they're surprised she eats a lot? It's okay to just sell off an artificially created human to be a sex slave just like that? AI doesn't exist in our world yet, yet WE'RE already talking about the implication of proper AI and basic rights. How could this ever be legal? How did the fan find her house in the first place? And how did he get up to her floor without a ladder or anything?
It's just one contrivance after another, creating a huge unrealistic mess. And I can already see why. Because the author wants to have a dumb naive clutzy girl who likes to eat paired with a good looking egotistical asshole of a guy. God, haven't gotten this worked up about such poor writing in a while...
No matter how good IE has become, the damage has been done ages ago. It's reputation has just become way too bad in the time it actually mattered. I personally prefer Firefox though.
Clearly the hero didn't understand just how valuable their tank was. Even if he could barely do damage, being able to basically take any and all attacks no matter how strong without getting severely injured would make him valuable enough to be on the hero's level. And now the hero party got crushed because of it. That's what you get for being so full of yourself just because you hold the hero title...
Reminds me of Ragnarok Online. The last 2 pages of chapter 3 I mean. In RO Rogues/Assassins could get high enough evasion to basically sit on the ground and still not get hit by most monsters. This is basically the same since he isn't even dodging, they're just...missing him somehow. xD
Didn't expect this fairly light-hearted manga to suddenly get to serious. People actually dying huh. I mean, there's no doubt in my mind that they'll get revived but still.
If I were Rimuru I'd go to war with that human country over this. They attacked the monster nation without provocation and killed indiscriminately after all. Not to mention how they declared war themselves. This would also be a good time to call on the Dwarven nation to aid them in the war. If only to counter the barrier that weakens only monsters.
But if Rimuru declared war, wouldn't there be more monsters from the monster nation killed? No?
So you think it's better to just let another nation walk all over his nation, killing his people without repercussions? Plus this was a surprise attack that the enemy planned beforehand. I doubt they'd have that much success when suddenly a large army of super powerful (the monsters Rimuru evolved are all super strong by that world's standards) monsters stands in front of their gates ready to lay siege on their city.
Yeah they sorta remind of solo levelling where his summons and him defeat their enemies....and rimuru with his entire nation and allies....but I think they really won't go to war tho...somehow this will be solved without that much bloodshed...
Cause...SPOILER!!!
Hinata was with rimuru, veldora, shion and the others in the other manga where it contains side stories.... And they were friends......
Yea but that's a side story. I mean, there's a high chance you're right considering the overall theme of this manga. But I wouldn't base what might happen in the main manga on what you can see in the side stories. :P
Rimuru only annihilated the 15k strong army of Farmas..so yeah not much bloodshed coz..leaving only the king to inflict his mind with a hellmarish state.
Oh! Well there isn't that much bloodshed...but there is still bloodshed.. well I wouldn't be satisfied without it though....haha
That's true, since they don't really show how the two characters get on good terms in the side stories
Aya rimuru wouldn't stand it he will find a better way than a full out war
Most of these MCs are so weak-willed. In the latest chapter they're basically deciding on who can have him like he's some kind of property to pass around. And he just goes along with them as if he doesn't have any choice in the matter, even though he's probably powerful enough to take on a small army by himself. Same for so many other isekai stories. Luckily there are a few MCs that don't take shit like that from others, but I wish there were more of them...
It really annoys me too. Do you have any recommendations of mangas with strong-willed MCs?
Saving 80,000 Gold Coins in the Different World for My Old Age - No op powers, just being able to travel between worlds. Uses modern tech and her wits to take no shit from others.
Potion Tanomi de Ikinobimasu! - Same author as above. Not physically strong, still an op power, but mostly uses words, manipulating others and quick thinking to get out of things she doesn't want to do. Even to the point of hurting herself (not permanently but still) at one point.
Arafoo Shachiku no Golem Master - MC is willing to concede up to a reasonable point, but at the end of ch5 and in ch6 he decides enough is enough and basically threatens the noble trying to take advantage of him with war if the noble continues.
Isekai de Skill wo Kaitai shitara Cheat na Yome ga Zoushoku Shimashita: Gainen Kousa no Structure - MC is OP as hell because of one single thing he can do. And he knows it. Gives me slight one punch man vibes the way battles go. :P
Versatile mage and Rebirth of the urban immortal Cultivator - Chinese wuxia web toons, but still pretty good. And they both really take no shit from anyone. :P
Kujibiki Tokushou Musou Harem-ken - Actually just does what he wants to do so far, rather than following what others tell him to do.
Isekai de Skill wo Kaitai shitara Cheat na Yome ga Zoushoku Shimashita: Gainen Kousa no Structure

about as OP as it gets
The war ended 100 years ago in his normal timeline. Yet his friends are alive and of the same age as before. And I doubt they're 100+ years old. So he's not in the past. He's in an alternate timeline. So it's far more likely that someone changed the past to erase Sid from it and created an alternate "current time" where the four races weren't sealed.
What's interesting is this "code holder" thing. It might be something that Sid also possessed to become the hero of humanity. And now he has the sword as well. So my theory is that he will indeed be taking on the role of Sid, but only to fix the timeline and return it to how it once was.
Unless he later on travels back in time to actually become Sid of course, but there's nothing indicating that so far.
Extra:
That someone that changed the past must be connected to the enemy he and the "devil" encountered. Said enemy referred to the both of them as possible interferences with "the new world", as in, maybe, "the timeline that the one controlling that thing created by removing Sid from history"
WOW
*Salutes
I could do with a little less of the "everyone the MC gets close to dies" plot to be honest. I mean I get it, this whole manga started with the premise of tragedy and it's its main theme. But still...
Extra:
I guess I'll be fine with it if the MC gets his sweet revenge on all of them. But anything less than the humans suffering a very painful death and their kingdom a really messy destruction, and I don't think I'll like this kind of plot much.
I mean, the MC is 25. How is that old? He's barely a fully grown, independent adult by today's standards. Barely out of college. Sure, maybe in that world you become an adult at 15~16 or something, but the average lifespan (of people making it past a few years old) was still 70 years or so. So how the hell is 25 old?
EDIT: I meant the average lifespan for people in the middle ages.
He's 39.. it took 25 years to restore her he was 14 then
Oh he's 39. Still not old imo. On the upper end of middle-aged maybe.
I think it's a cultural thing, rather the culture of the writer. A lot of manga list folks in their 30 to 40s as old. It is weird. Like I'll read stories with characters in their late 20's, so a few years younger than me at 33 and they will be called old...Like if that's old what are manga characters that are in their 70 and up? walking piles of dust??
Though in comparison to his companion that is still in their teens he is old physically. But only old as a love interest. Like if a 16 year old girl was dating a man in his late 30s most would think that was odd.
Usually in manga around 40-50 is "old man" while 60 is "gramps" .. and not to forget that most of the people calling him old man are young men or teens sounding either over familiar or rude. it isn't not forget most adventures are young around his age either retired, dead or have families (￣∇￣")

39 is old but not gramps old in asian countries its the age of uncle or parents, thats why they call him ojisan which is like sir or mister or also uncle that is not formal but also not rude its the equivalent of ajussi in korea..
It's most likely due to the fact that the life expectancy was a lot lower than what it is now. Especially when you do a dangerous job that require constant alertness and physical prowl.
Considering that he is 39 in an age where the oldest person is probably 60, maybe at most 70 if they are a noble with a cushy life, pushing 40 is considered to be pretty old. Old enough to start settling down and getting ready for retirement in 10 years. A dangerous job like that would have retirement around 40 at the latest unless he got a desk job instead of a field one if he wanted to stay in the adventurer's guild.
