I mean, like 10 chapters in, it was pretty clear that the whole greater goal of "Find Farlyn" was a pipe dream and the team was delusional / in denial about her death, and i honestly never expected them to find any remains of her at all. Most creatures don't take roughly 2 weeks to digest something a 10th of their size, and definitely no creatures as active and huge as a dragon. I acutally figured they wouldn't even find the dragon, and that it was the perpetual "carrot on a stick" goal to make a frame work for the story.

There's a lot of morally questionable people in DUngeon Meshi though Remember when Laius was pushing really hard for his right to eat sentient humanoid creatures and then just settled for tricking his party into eating their eggs instead

Yeah that other "party" whose plan it was to get Kabru's and Laius' party to kill each other and then mop up any remaining survivors, to make some quick cash at the low cost of some fatal trauma for some people Not that i didn't think the response was harsh, but man, when death isn't even a real issue you can threaten someone with, these jokers would've been back to their extremely hosed up racket within days.

Yeah keep in mind that it's entirely possible to permanently die in the dungeon. You need A. enough of the body left to resurrect someone, if they're eaten (esp. by multiple monsters) then revival chances are slim, and B. you need to somehow haul all these corpses away from a raging Farlyn monster and to someone who can revive them. She has a lot of Harpies with them, flying monsters who can easily and quickly carry body parts far apart and hide/dispose of them, just sayin (not that anyone of the three parties will die for good in this fight since it's a story, but it's very easily possible)

At first i thought Senshi's copies are the ones with wildly off-model proportions. But it probably goes something like this: Giant stubbleface stereotypical McWarrior Laius, haughty sharp-faced fancy hair stereotypical elf Marcille and granite-nosed serious-eye stereotypical dwarf Senshi must all be Chilchak's versions. He pictures others mostly with a visual shorthand for their role or race. This one is really a guess, could have also been Senshi, but here's why i don't think so. Senshi, as we know from the Dryad chapter, views the rest of the group as children. So, tiny puffy-cheeks Chilchak with the toy lock picks, droopy Laius and "Black Magic is so rad!" Marcille are probably all his creations. We already know two of Laius' creations by the lack of, or just flat-out wrong details on them. Funnily enough, his attention to detail in one specific case - Marcille's spell book - makes her clone to be probably the hardest one to figure out. It could be open-hair Marcille, since this way she looks a little more like Farlyn. Although for some reason my gut tells me that's actually the real one, since letting her hair down for the cold seems like something she'd do. Marcille, then, would be the one who has no sense for cooking or the tools used therein, so she's the only one to get the utensils wrong. Still. Also obviously the one who sees Laius as an indiscriminate feed machine. So we got three fakes left - Laius' impression of Marcille, Chilchak's impression of Not sure about the differences for that last one. There might be a certain difference in height? But it could also be artistic license in panel arrangement. edit: One of them has bigger, rounder eyes than the other. Probably the fake one. Though it's kind of a stretch.

While checking mangadex for the above picture, i saw that there's a second chapter for Isekai Transporter out. I expected the first chapter to be a one-shot, honestly. The second chapter is laying out the harsh truths in selecting candidates to send to other worlds: (read this way ---->) Looking at the majority of isekai stories out there, i have a feeling that many isekai transporters are very bad at their job in this regard.

BravestOfTheLamps posted:Well it is poorly drawn. Every time it's shown it full it looks teensy instead of monumental. The thick, dense line-work without proper variation or contrast is painful to look at. Combined with the complete lack of shading, there's no sense of depth or distance. Don't even act like you specified the cathedral in particular when you took your solipsistic snipe. You labeled the entire thing as "poorly drawn" which is - well, i'm leaning heavily into the disingenious side now I don't particularly enjoy the art style as a whole and only got through a couple chapters before losing interest, but come the gently caress on edit: i enjoyed the post about the cathedral though since it's always fun to see someone apply their in-depth knowledge to fiction, like that time we had a train engineer effortpost on the Kabaneri anime, more of that and less cheap snipes please HenryEx fucked around with this message at 15:35 on Sep 13, 2018 |

Dude, are you serious Did you really not understand that i referenced that word as shorthand to refer to your post above, not the word itself. The tpoc never left the art, why would you even I mean, you have to be willfully obtuse here, no one can be that dumb, but i'm really not sure what the point is you're trying to make by going on a huge meaningless tangent no one asked for.

It's mildly amusing, mostly inoffensive aside from the standard "dark elf with sad past" Luckily he's not a creep, so it's really benign stuff he gets up to. Never really any serious conflict either. Fluff, as the one above said. Translation isn't great, but at lest you probably won't badly regret checking it out.
