A bit of a slower volume, introducing the academy and teasing future conflicts, but not quite getting to any of them. Still cute, especially where Pochi is concerned.

In case you didn't know, if you care about someone, you should leave them while they struggle, disappear in a war-torn country, read their letters but never write back, be secretly in contact with your family and theirs but forbid anybody from even telling them you're alive, then swoop in eight or so years later, long after they've solved all their issues on their own, to declare your love and kiss them without permission.

Or at least that's what this series would have you believe.

I'm not quite hate-reading it, but the twists and turns are just so bizarre and the characters so unbelievable it's hard to put down. A car-wreck in a manga form, if you will.

I love how he's worried about the budget despite having brought an entire extra elf to the park. Kazuhiro, your budget was dead on arrival.

I know you don't like the question "When will the next volume be translated?", so I say it in an other way that'll make you happy (I hope xD ) : I'm a huge fan of this series and you can count me in to read both manga and Light Novel.

Hmm. Seems Nacht is very angry at the army.

I think she's about to thoroughly destroy the army before they even reach Estoll.

@Zerio I actually haven’t read the LN - that’s why I said “I guess”

@kuali
So I just found the Japanese version, and it was written as ゼット, so I guess Zed

So she wants someone who won't die when they are killed. Did I get that correct?

Yes, I believe that's so, especially when she's doing the killing herself. (In other words, someone durable)

Suimei: What the hell are the odds.
Han Solo: Never tell me the odds.

@Ingraman Doubly strange that that topic seems to be invisible to me, except with a direct link. Searching for it did not find it.

Maybe now that I've tagged it, the system will let me see it? I'll find out... Thanks!

...Jeanette, why are you excited about being mugged?

LN spoilers

But it's really cool of Claus to protect her.

Inb4 they're doing an act because they're friends with Jeanette and know she gets excited by it.

@Ingraman said in D-Genesis (Manga) Vol 4 Discussion:

Thanks for the update. After your post, I went to my JNC library page, but there was no mention of an update there (just two new books that I’d already downloaded). I downloaded volume four once again, and it was the updated version 1.1.

Thanks for reaching out! Yes, your library page should only show you updated LNs. We may consider adding this functionality for manga at a later date.

I would appreciate JNC adding manga update notices, or at least some sort of latest-version information for any books being added somewhere on the JNC website for people to compare their downloaded version number against. Maybe on the library page, or on the series pages alongside the information for each volume (for those not buying directly from JNC, or are Kindle/Nook/BookWalker users notified when books they’ve purchased get updates?)

Thank you!

@Philip-Reuben since there are no corrections threads for manga:

v5 c7

Page 13: In the 3rd panel Miyoshi says We should hurry to the 11th floor but the 5th panel says 10th floor. I think that should be 11th floor both times.

Indeed, you're correct - it's been changed to be "11th floor" in both instances. Thank you!

@TheWickerMan Yeah, part 6 and part 7 of the current volume are both showing the same chapter. It's 6 that's wrong, this week's part got released there early by mistake and has now been released again.

I know they probably didn't want to just write Japanese, but those agricultural figures ended up looking more like a wiring diagram than any kind of writing...

Come to think of it, if the thought of compiling agricultural figures is so important to her that she can't recognise a guy she grew up with, I can kinda see why Reese might want to marry someone else. (Near-instantly forgetting what someone looks like because you don't love them anymore isn't really how human brains usually work., whatever Amelia's thoughts on the subject..)

Don't get me wrong, he's still a giant arsehole (there are right and wrong ways to do things, and slander tends to come under wrong way). I just mean I can see why he might not have been happy with the thought of a lifetime married to Amelia.

Lady Emilla has one of those hairstyles that just screams I'm too important to leave any hairgel for the lesser noblewomen!, with an undercurrent of High Nobility doesn't need peripheral vision! Obstacles should be avoiding me!

Also, you'd think someone with a pending engagement to royalty would know some of the etiquette around interacting with them...

Amelia, finally catching up with the audience: Oh, the man who has been cheating on me was lying about why he wasn't spending time with me!

Wait, Marius really sliced his brother in half (or maybe in 1/3 and 2/3) and killed him?
That was really unexpected. No forgiving or "stoop so low" argument like in most other series.
I guess given that he killed the father and the eldest brother, he deserved it. But since this wasn't something we directly witnessed, it doesn't feel real.

Well no complaints though. I like when a series doesn't hesitate in killing the bad guys.

And so Wife no 3 joins the party /s

Do you mean wife no. 2? It doesn't seem like the dwarf girl is going to be his romantic partner.

I'm enjoying this manga as a companion to the anime. In a way it explains more about the story line than the anime did.

Perv^2! But we’ve known that for a long time…
