This manga is quite fun. Her happily chomping down on that living hydra was kinda terrifying.

Captain Invictus posted:In today's Eminence in Shadow we learn how to properly throw a duel so as not to arouse suspicion. "Properly". This is really fun, but the main character is somehow one of the most clueless protagonists in the genre. I really want to see an explanation for the fact that this world seems to act exactly like the stupid bullshit he makes up on the spot. To be honest, I don't really get the protagonist. For all he knows, the whole deal with the cult was a farce. But who does he think he's fighting and killing? Some random group who play their own deadly ARG?

I liked how he randomly tossed a dagger at a map to find the underground hideout where his sister was kidnapped to. And when he was there, he wasn't surprised at all to be right. But I really do like the concept of a person who desperately wants to appear average and nonremarkable but puts so much effort into it that it turns the other way around. I want more of this. Is the LN written and translated okayish?

Never really seen it, but "Lost" is one of the most generic isekais, right? Also if you are into the ones about power/revenge fantasies, "The count of Monte Cristo" apparently uses those common tropes quite well.

I continued to sit on my notebook and didn't really mind. The end.

RareAcumen posted:Yeah, we need more isekai about having useful information that could help help make the world a better place but being unable to actually improve it any fashion. I want it to go one step further. The MC is knowledgeable in stuff like disease control and smugly claims that he can revolutionize the medical system. Except, it turns out that he's an idiot, since in the new world miasma theory and phlogiston is the correct approach and his theories have been disproven ages ago.

habituallyred posted:Its been long enough since the nethack thread updated that I can't remember if it was an actual thing somebody did, or just something that they could have done if they were really desperate to remain wishless. That approach is really unnecessary complicated, when you can just wish for the +2 blessed greased dragon chain mail, or the scales. Or you could just let your current pet repeatedly step on the polymorph trap to skip all the bullshit with laying eggs and specifically killing your children.

RareAcumen posted:Most people know how to replicate or make soy sauce and rice or something similiar in isekai where food's a factor in the story but where are the stunt food chefs? I wanna see Japanese versions of state fairs with fried coke an donut bun burgers and other dumb stuff like that. Of course there is the matter of atainability and reward. Making soy sauce is quite simple and can be a great addition. Producing activated charcoal, just to make your food look black without any real taste difference or notable health benefit is quite a bit of work. Usually you get that stuff from burning and steaming coconut shells, which may not be plentiful in Isekaiplace. And messing up the recipe by adding ash into it would be gross. If you appear in a world where they have bread, butter, salad, meat, chese and condiments inventing the sandwich seems kind of natural. Of course, you need to do the process in secret to keep your monopoly. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 22:13 on Sep 6, 2022 |

VictualSquid posted:In related news, the actually good hell-mode isekai has updated: That was a fun read so far. But those giants have some weird biases which seem to clash with their prophecies. I don't get their behavior.

Mors Rattus posted:Wholesome is probably not the word I'd use for it but it's very good. It's about a found family supporting each other on a perilous journey. What could be more wholesome than that?
