@Geezer-Weasalopes said in The Retired Demon of the Maxed-Out Village Vol 2 Discussion:

"It's over!"

Yup. That was the end of the book. Now to wait for the next one to see what happens after the light show. :)

Um.
Yes.
But maybe not how you intended.

Well, she was probably intending/expecting magic to happen, and not just for swords to clang against one another. :)

It's too bad Allen didn't turn the crazy black wolf knight over to the other knight with both his legs cut off, too.

@arghc This volume contains an afterword, including commentary on and rough drafts of cover illustrations, and a preview of volume 10.

@Kotenmaru Out of all the weird and bizarre depictions of MMORPG gameplay in this series, having a sizeable number of players simply not read or know of basic details is by far the most believable.

My MMORPG of choice is FFXIV, and every day there are complaints by would-be players who fail to realize there is a subscription fee for the game, despite it being listed in plain text everywhere one might purchase the game.

Players who don't understand the purpose or intent of an in-game event is certainly more believable than the devs having created such an event in the first place.

I like how it was depicted that Nilda would be better off using a shorter blade. It seemed more convincing than how it was described in the novel.

I’m begging you once more to license the LN ffs

I'd like that little rabbit.
I'm going to have that little rabbit after all.
...I'll forgive it all for one night with the little rabbit...

Jeez, the Duke has a rabbit fetish doesn't he? (lol)
P.S. It looks like duchess Christine has a fetish of her own, too...mhehehe)

Man is terrorizing his whole crew in the most hilarious way.

I SUGGEST LIMITING THE SUPPLY OF WATER CRYSTALS O N THE MARKET TO DRIVE UP THEIR PRICE
Single word, "ON", rather than two individual letters.

@AliceCheshire yeah I remember that in the novel, too. Some of the manga changes made the manga easier to follow. This one seems counterintuitive.

Wow… That seemed rather conclusive. I expected there to be a bit more story after she gathered all of the powers together in herself. Apparently not. Maybe I’d forgotten some story details from earlier books (or I was only paying half-attention when I was reading, as it’s not a favorite ;) .

Why did it have to end there, now I have to wait a few months for the fight

@Kotenmaru that was Ricchan, not Nene. Nene is the one with short light brown hair that was passionately taking cell phone photos in Nanami's imagination.

Lufas: Libra, why are you bowing too?
Libra: It makes you look far more imposing for the peanut gallery.

That's releases two days in a row that have the protagonist channeling their inner Myne.

@pcj
Replacement victim is more like it; I was two sections behind, so got the entire sub-arc in one sitting.

Hadn't thought about there still needing to be a fiancée; Serephi sidestepped the role, so someone else got stuck with it.
And boy can she sympathize with her.

(The “Three Great Sages” show up.)

Me: <sigh> These types of characters. <sigh> How boring…

Maybe they’ll be used to an interesting effect, but I’m not initially hopeful.

At least it seems like Reina is set to be possessed by the one most likely to give her body back after she settles their guardians down since the image matches the one Nona pictured when she described the voice telling her this isn't the way.

"Wait. This isn't the game anymore. I can move in three dimensions!"
