Honestly Number 6 doesn't seem that evil, he's just a pervert and an opportunist. It certainly doesn't help that his points system rewards him for doing things like exposing himself, taking lewd pictures, or stealing panties.

I honestly wonder what non-pervert things he could do to earn points, but they'd probably be things that are really evil, like burning down orphanages or committing war crimes.

New chapter for the magicless lesbian princess isekai. They put two scenes together here, which was a good idea, but in the process they cut an important bit of characterisation for Anne-Sophia that I hope they'll add back in somewhere else.



Edit: Oh, I wanted to add a few panels of faces, too. Whoops.

I wonder whether this part of Sword or Slime was written first, because that kind of came out of nowhere and is incredibly reminiscent of how that sage skill pretty much does everything for Rimuru in Slime.

Power of internet says Slime is older. Scene was likely heavily inspired by Slime though since they do share the same LN publisher.

It comes much, much less out of nowhere in the WN because it spends a while at the beginning with just Sword Dad grinding in the special zone he starts in, which is when the Announcer is established. (She's basically just a generic system announcer though, aside from being a voice that Sword Dad can interact with to keep his sanity while alone there's nothing important from her until this moment.) Time that was, correctly, cut in the manga and shortened in the LN.

I liked Viro but I am kind of lukewarm on the village's secret. I feel like the series already has too many irons in the fire without adding another huge one.

I liked it, though I agree that there are a lot of mysteries being setup. I'm mostly curious about the shrine and the mask.

My brother is a resident and doesn't read manga or watch anime at all, but I got him hooked on this. He says it's uncanny how it feels, and wonders if the author was a medical student.

I'm reluctant to get into Unwanted Undead Adventurer because of the bonus chapters that are part of JNC's premium sub or whatever and I have a MUST CONSUME ALL RELATED CONTENT problem. Do I have to specifically buy each book off of JNC's site or are they just something anyone with premium can read? And do they come in a downloadable format?

You have to specifically buy them from JNC yes. Learned this the hard way. The stories are worth it though.

You buy the sub for a month. Then you buy each individual premium book from JNC. Then you cancel the sub until the next batch of books you want to purchase.

It is really, really tedious and terrible, and I dislike that they hold the extra stories hostage like that. I mean, the extra stories aren't usually that long and mostly inconsequential, but it is still stuff I would like to read.

You don't actually NEED a subscription, that just gives you a $2 discount if I recall. Process IS a bit tedious in that you need to make an account and buy credit vouchers and use those for the stuff you want.

Edit: NVM, looks like you might indeed need premium to buy the premium vouchers that will include the bonus content. This is also true for Bakarina as well.

You still need it as far as I can tell. You need to have an active subscription before you can purchase and spend premium credits. There are two subscription levels, one for $5/month and one for $11/month (which gives you a free premium book credit per month).

EDIT: :v:

you could read the ACTUAL best slime-related isekai, Sui's Big Adventure. but first read Campfire Cooking in Another World, the isekai it's spun off of.

Campfire Cooking is a pretty great isekai series. I like that it has a lot of the trappings of many isekai(the power being basically Amazon and ultra convenient dimensional storage and all that) but the MC winds up being the equivalent of one of those guys in old World of Warcraft who was fairly worthless in combat but had all the best cooking recipes and max cooking skill, and the high level raid groups would go and buy dishes from them for raids, except said raid group are his two traveling companions who take care of all the fighting. Also, literally bribing god with earth food in exchange for buffs. Sui is a great addition to the crew, and the side manga Sui's Big Adventure is good fun.

Also, how caught up on Slime are you? Manga or LN? There's also the Slime Diaries I'd recommend, but you'll need to actually buy those unless you know of "places".
