Thank you thread for showing me Beard Gorilla. My only regret is having to wait for more chapters now :(

Something that popped up in it and in a few other series I've read has me curious about something that might just be a cultural thing. Is it normal to like date for a year before you kiss in Japan? Because we see an initial date, two separate Valentine's days and a couple more strips representing time passing before Beard Gorilla has his first kiss in his relationship.

Boukensha ni Naritai to Miyako ni Deteitta Musume ga S Rank ni Natteta

quote:

After losing his leg as a startup adventurer, he retired to his hometown in the countryside. Doing things such as collecting medicinal herbs, exterminating magic beasts and wild beasts, and helping with the villagers’ farm work, it’s hard to decide whether to call our protagonist an adventurer or a handyman. And while doing these things his age quickly approached thirty.

One day while searching the mountains for herbs, he discovered an abandoned child. Thinking that he couldn’t just leave it, he took it home and raised it until his age approached forty. His now grown-up daughter had also wanted to become an adventurer, likely from growing up watching her father. Although her father had taught her the sword since she was young for self-defense, her talent at it was quite impressive. Thinking that it would be better for her not to be stuck out in the country for the rest of her life, our protagonist sent her to the adventurers’ guild in the Capital. His daughter officially became an adventurer.

After another five years, the protagonist, now in his forties, is still acting as a pseudo-adventurer in the countryside. However his daughter is now a distinguished S Class adventurer but hasn’t returned home once yet… “Just when will I get to see Daddy again…!?”

First two chapters are cute and funny, his daughter wants to visit but she keeps getting roped into high level quests so I wonder if he's going to venture out to find her :3

Just wanted to vent and complain about the unfortunate tendency for these to go bad. :smith:

I had the manga for If It's for My Daughter, I'd Even Defeat A Demon Lord pop up on my Amazon recommended list (I've been re-reading Sweetness & Lightning on there, along with checking out some other fantasy/isekai stuff of varying quality), and after a brief Google search didn't see much so I gave it a go. It's about Dale, a young human hero-class adventurer, and Latina, his adopted devil daughter.

It was cute and fun, so I decided I'd try the LNs since I've been wanting a new series to read. The first two and a half books were great. Pretty well written and translated, avoiding a lot, though not all, of the "just describing an anime" style that's pretty common in LNs I've read, and it continued to be cute and fun. Then halfway through the third book we jump to the daughter being 14 and things slow down.

Dale does things I hate to see, played off for laughs, like refusing, repeatedly and with no reflection or growth so far, to accept that his kid's growing up, wanting to hide dangerous stuff to keep Latina happier longer and ignoring requests from the now-teenager to stop treating her like she's a little kid and bragging about her to everyone he works with. Then by the end of the third book it's fully twisted all of Latina's antics as a child that I was hoping wouldn't lead up to this, and does the dumb thing of the adopted daughter being romantically in love with her dad, though he doesn't currently feel anything close to that for her. That changes according to the marketing summaries on future books, unfortunately.

I might keep reading, though the fourth book is going to have to be pretty strong to keep me for long. There's some interesting stuff going on otherwise (Demon Lords, and the fighting of them as in the title, and a pretty strong hint that Latina's Mom is alive, under a nasty contract that keeps Latina safe), and the potential relationship isn't the worst (they're merely 10 years apart with Dale being 18 when he found the 8 year old Latina, Dale hasn't thought of Latina's as anything other than his daughter so far, and while devils live for hundreds of years their childhood lasts about as long as a human child's). I'm probably just going to drop it, though

I just wanted a cute new series to read. :smith:

ah yeah, I read a tiny amount of the LN translation and was getting enough yikes vibes I decided to avoid that one
^ my post from when the last time that one got brought up

I don't remember now what gave it away right off the bat but some of these things just have a tone that says "ok this is not going to go anywhere good" but I also have some healthy skepticism based on target audience and whatnot. I mean you may end up with one that gets creepy right out of left field at the end but it seems like they're way more likely to show their hand sooner rather than later. One red flag to me is if there are no other adult characters who have significant roles or are set up to be the main love interest early on. Also I usually glance at the comments if it's on a reader site and see how many disgusting creeps are panting about "cute lolis" or poo poo like that b/c that tells me something in that one is appealing to perverts.

imo it's not worth trying to read around gross parts, drop it and find something else

Ever since Usagi Drop, I'm left to wonder which series about single fathers raising their kid is going to end with them getting together. It's not that common from my experience, but every now and again it gets forced into the plot and sours the mood immediately.
