Sharkopath posted:Its based way more on the classic tabletop rpgs with structured magic, and very specifically if I had to hazard a guess I'd say the author played some dnd in their time or at least is familiar with the ruleset for it. The entire idea of wizards being head and shoulders above other classes that cant use magic and able to do their job for them, jokes about interminable periods of magical buffing, different levels of wizard being able to fire more missiles just to name a few things. It's not a manga, but the LN "Magic User: Reborn in Another World as a Max Level Wizard" runs with that concept by having a guy isekaied into another world as his old D&D character. Which makes him the only guy playing with wizard rules when every other magic user is running off a JRPG system instead. It makes him pretty drat OP, since he's the only person around who can call down meteors, stop time, or summon monsters. He does come with D&D weaknesses though: he has to roll for every spell he casts to see if it goes off (not an actual D&D rule, but eh), he rolls for damage on his attack spells, he's got spell slots, and of course all of his spells have a casting period that he can't shorten.

Brought To You By posted:Series I'd been keeping up with for the past couple months has seen a spike in updates this week. Yo this was/is legit, it has some GREAT 4th wall breaking for an ancient, ancient history fantasy manga and the entire concept is rad. Also the third volume just came out last week so I expect it may get some updates soon.

Those last two chapters of Frieren were absolutely amazing. It should be a bit expected, but the execution is amazing and so is the way it goes against the current trends. Best currently running manga? Probably.

Brought To You By posted:The new Mizukami Satoshi series Solte the Adventurer got a new chapter. It's a fantasy world magical girl story with just two chapters. But he's set up some familiar elements to his writing like a companion character whose more in the know than the MC. And we're gearing up for adventure into the demon realm. This is really good! I like the main party character concepts and the world itself is really interesting with the blighted magic pollution from an epic mage war in ages past. The encounter in the first chapter with the weird... everything really helped spark my interest in the series!

Brought To You By posted:I made the observation in the manga thread but it's very likely they are actual shapeshifters that just have human forms for their deceit. Someone else mentioned the creature from 'The Thing' but I've been keeping the roaches from 'Mimic' in my mind.

This weekend has been a steady stream of series I follow getting translations. :fwoot: On top of what looks like a daily dose of Touge Oni Be Mine, Hero and archdemon received it's last two chapters finishing off where the official english volumes never went. I've lost most of the context for events but drat if it wasn't gorgeous and worth a re-read.

Been a while but new chapter of Is it odd that I became an adventurer even if I graduated from the witchcraft institute Don't say that 10 times fast and I'm reminded that I used to think this story was going the harem route until the tomboy childhood friend showed up. Glad everyone else agrees.

At times “Is it odd?” is good and funny, but why do 50% of fantasy manga have to do the dumb orc rapist plot. It’s so terrible every time. If you’re writing a lighthearted story, maybe don’t put rape in it! This isn’t loving rocket science!

I've been really enjoying Adventurers Who Don't Believe in Humanity Will Save the World. Basic premise is a group of 4 adventurers who, due to experiencing various betrayals, no longer trust other people, decided to form a party together. It has a pretty interesting dynamic, where the party is having to learn to trust and work together, despite the previous trauma.

Let see, one false rape accusation, one golddigger, the best "waifu" is the one that's totally unused to human society and the other one is a low effort rip off of the otome game villainess thing. That's some nice female characters there I guess

Picked up this one recently. Toujuushi Bestialious is set during the Roman conquest of Europe, specifically Brittania in a world where mythical creatures and demi-humans once thrived before being purged from the history books. The story follows a handful of different characters both human and monster all bound by their familial relationships which fly in the face of Roman logic and creed. Expect a lot of gladiatorial fights and very good art. There's also a series called Magus of the Library which is published by Kodasha and tells the story of a young half-elf boy whose desire is to become a librarian. This is a really good story if you enjoy worldbuilding since the general idea is to explore the different cultures and races that exist in this world as well as the efforts of the Central Library to preserve the collective histories and texts of the world. There are 3 volumes out currently with the 4th being released in english today.

It finally happened, I've read the manga equivalent to Evangelion's final episode and it was that minotaur romance series that went left field when it introduced the big bad wolf and ran all the way home with this latest chapter. Congratulations The douchey prince that made incredibly inappropriate statements towards the best swordswoman and tried to kill the Minotaur in mortal kombat was just rusing everyone and all the nobility are actually monster using magic to hide their identities and control humanity from the shadows. Surprise!! this was all a test, we just wanted to make sure you could beat down this random demigod so you could become king
