Ash breaks the mutual admiration society meeting in a juvenile way. Good on him. 8-)

Hmm, haven't gotten to the worrisome news yet.

To be fair, this is more of an adaptation-induced plot hole than anything. As I mentioned last volume, the Arendt party / abduction attempt wasn't in the LNs, so the Imperial Family didn't have anything serious enough to justify a confrontation with the Arendts over until later in the arc.

I agree. The manga appears to be diverging quiet a bit from the LN as the story progresses.

I love how the Archbishop seems to delight in how well Hayate knows him and doesn't try to pretend otherwise, just agreeing and setting the village aflame.

I'm worried about Claus, and hoping we either find him injured or at least find his body. I wouldn't put it past the church to capture him and let this Hexbeast tamer turn him into one of her "pets" to use against our protagonists later.

Sarge: "...Do I have to do the Disney Princess bit?"

Just finished watching The Equalizer and here is Aoi one upping him.

@Ingraman Manga loop #101 is quite different from LN loop #101.

I'm not sure if this one is going to grab me, but it is doing significantly better than Reset/Reboot. I can keep track of who is saying what, and they've at least made a start on getting me to care about the characters.

@Geezer-Weasalopes Thinking about it a little harder, it feels like the mangaka doesn't really get the tone of the original work. Which is why Slaine is getting action hero moments, despite how badly they fit the story.

Honestly, if I'd been operating at full cynicism, the wandered-in-from-another-series design the mangaka gave to the palace chef should have tipped me off that something was wrong with the adaptation...

Looks over at Prince Igna.

Truer words have never been spoken.

@Libri-Liberorum I am not disputing the childishness of the logic. That is, in fact, what a little kid's logic would say. I'm just saying "I guess?" in that "I mean, it makes sense, but..."

She very well might have been right. Someone else might have planned to steal it and been thwarted because she's done stolen it before they got a chance! 🤣

Lynne is extremely powerful on her own.

And so she is...

So it turns out it was Anne not Beth, and she's working as Opal's spy to locate Beth.

@TheGrimLich said in My Tiny Senpai Vol 6 Discussion:

"It's great for my wallet" That's not why you're making them, though, is it?

Yeah, but that's the excuse he's using to hang around his senpai (and smell her closet clothes).
