Combatants Will Be Dispatched is extremely on the Konosuba brand and I love it. I didn't know Kemono Michi was by the same author, I regret having it linger in my backlog now.

And I am taken to a place

Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

Yes. All the other classmates we meet, afaik going only a little further, are basically newborns. She got lucky and matured super fast as a spider, while her classmates got put into longer life stages.


So glad that dragon is over with though. 6 months of terrible chapters.

This one is KOREAN and not japanese, but I still like it.

Dimensional Mercenary

The MC is a jobless guy in debt, who wants to make money. He fills out a sketchy website that turns out to be a job application to send his soul to another world and fulfill a contract. He gets paid according to the results.

So it's Isekai where he goes to another world, accomplishes something, then comes back and does it again.

The nice thing is this means each 'world' becomes its own little subplot and you get resolution of each story fairly quick.

Life as a Reincarnated Sage in Another World

Rather harmless and inoffensive but the extreme OP MC may turn people off to it.

The MC is a black company worker who gest Isekai'ed and becomes a tamer, and tames a bunch of slimes. Then he learns magic - all of the magic - and becomes a sage. Now he's OP and uses his slimes and his magic to pretty much just wander around looking bland and doing whatever he feels like.

Might hit a few notes with people, might not, but there's nothing bad in it. No slavery, he gets a couple cute girl companions who he promptly leaves behind. Fun doggo familiar that's basically scared shitless of the MC, and alternates between timid and proud.

Kinda fun to read when you're waiting on other series to catch up.

I also like it because it doesn't have the stereotypical 'Adventure guild bullies' you see in all the Isekai. There's a big, mean-looking dude early on who turns out to be a pretty good guy, and I like that. Sort of got a 'we look out for each other' vibe that I enjoyed.

New trailer for the Bookworm anime starting next month.

I hope it doesn't suck. The anime designs aren't as cute as the manga or book designs and it has me worried. It looks like they've put a fair amount of effort into the world design, at least.

Also it's going to be weird since I'd envisioned a fairly different cast for a lot of the characters, but that's just what you get I guess.

I'm worried because it looks like they're going as far as the dream world, which is like chapter 130. Even at two cours, you'd have to flat out delete half the chapters just to keep it at a reasonable 2.5 chapters per episode! I really hope it's good though!

A lot of the time with early anime PVs they’ll only have the art for the first few episodes done anyway, so my guess is they’re going to be using that scene as some sort of frame story device, showing the bits from earth and part 1 as a flashback. Ferdinand is the most popular character in Japan so I can understand their wanting to include him.

NA fans are just going to have to deal with being confused, maybe.

Was this posted? Cheating Men Must Die

A woman body jumps Quantum Leap style into other women who have "become secondary characters" to punish the men who tossed them aside and the women who "took their place". The background is similar to that one where a guy completes quests in various worlds, as she gets paid and can buy items from her "employer".

This first part is set in an imperial court, and she hops into a consort who has just lost her top rank to a schemer.

That's not how the Triangle Attack works...
I've been reading this isekai about a woman reincarnated as the wife of a noble and spends her time drinking tea, basically like a food manga but only dealing with different types of tea. A tea-sekai, if you will. The story is mostly light-hearted with some hints at some potential relationship drama, but right now it's just focusing on tea-drinking. It also has nice art and some funny moments.

Oh snap, I had to re-read this a couple of times because it was colored and I just couldn't wrap my head around the fact that it was a manga (even though colored manga isn't like, the most outrageous thing in the world or anything). It looks like anime screenshots.

I read this a little while ago and mostly I just thought it was odd how, despite the title, the focus was way more on getting revenge on "the other woman". Maybe that'll change in future stories, but that gave me a unpleasant impression, like the writer thought that women were always at fault for a cheating man.

She does say why she's focused on the woman here: she ended up having a looooooooooooooot of people killed, including the younger princes, in her quest to be the most powerful woman in the empire.

You should know by now that in-universe excuses aren't very compelling in this thread.

Anyway, it was just the juxtaposition of the title and the actual content of the first arc that made me raise an eyebrow.

My headcanon is that before she was reincarnated into a Duchess, this woman was actually a reincarnated Arthur Dent.

Really interesting. kinda sweet.
Isekai'd girl, as a villainess, but only starts getting memories back after she had bullied the heroine into the arms of her fiance.
She goes straight to the secret NG+ route bachelor, the Demon King, trying to romance him to stop her death fate.

She keeps getting more memories back only after she gets to a point that using in-game methods wouldn't work, forcing her to make plans as each memory changes everything. DOUBLE spoiler: The heroine is Also an isekai'd girl

I dislike the Otome game isekai stuff but this is actually interesting.

I don't recall if I posted this before, but the Tondemo Skill Isekai has a great spin-off about the slime pet in it, Sui. The Main story is about an MC with an online grocery store power, who uses amazing cooking to tame the legendary Fenrir beast. Then he gets a slime, goes on adventures, is super chill and super fun. The side story is about the super cute slime.

The side story is pretty adorable if you like cute, innocent antics. It just got a 3rd chapter released! But the 2nd chapter's the best. Anyone who likes cute slimes will LOVE this

You are not one of us.

I said I'd post about this again once things were getting to the wrapping up point, and now we're here. There's apparently just 6 chapters left to be finished up, so if you were interested I'd say it's pretty safe to pick it up. I've been enjoying it quite a bit.

Quick recap, since it's been a while.

World of Yggdrasia is an upcoming fantasy VRMMO that looks to be the most realistic yet. The main character is No. 13, a young orphan girl that is one of 100 orphans that make up a secret group of beta testers that are testing out the potential for using monster avatars instead of human ones. Some of the testers discover that there's more to Yggdrasia than they were told, and the MC winds up smack in the middle of the chaos that follows.

I'm torn on whether the Bishop is going to be exactly what he seems to be on the paper, and turn out to having invited Will in because he wants to wipe out Gracefeel worshippers, and be really stereotypical and boring...

Or defy that stereotype and turn out to be actually devout and either jaded or working to a higher cause while playing dumb. The early chapters of this makes me hopeful enough that maybe it's this.
