Default WDARL view is a modern card view

But I added a button to show a novel/manga formated WDARL list.

Not me grabbing a pen & paper to solve the math problem.

That diary/logbook is cursed if the princess was influenced just by reading it.

A new version of the manga is scheduled to release on April 6, 2026 (Manga Artist: Miyajima Ryoku / 宮嶋リョク).

Volume 1 Cover

There was another version that released on 2024, but I think it got canceled (I saw it a long time ago, but since the serialization page was gone I did not find any prof that it existed before finding a image from the cover for the Volume 1)

Not a fan of how everyone fighting with Sera is nerfed to oblivion so she can have flawless victories. Sure, there are external factors, like the Empire swordsman was injured and Oscar was still young, but it only makes the other characters who instead struggle against the same opponents looking bad in comparison.
Anyway, turns out Ryo was right in hating the Debuhi empire from the start. I hope that this arc is going to end with its destruction.

I liked this ending, especially getting some more story background on Ai Fa's parents. These little afterthought and side stories really make these novels.

I’ve watched the anime and i’m currently reading the manga but i’m thinking about reading the LN once i’m done and if i enjoy it i’m gonna genuinely need a Physical release of the English LNs cause oh my god is it just expensive to find a copy of the manga whatsoever but for now i’ll come back here once i’ve started reading the light novels.

Yes. Thank you for putting it diplomatically. I hope in the future the prepubs will be clear enough to understand, without attribution mistakes.

3rd time reading (my brain just won't lemme move on from this series!) and I haaaate how Amimin is such an afterthought to this story. Never see her in any boss fights, but she's clearly a front liner. Argh.. Just had to get that off my chest.

I suppose that Cercis and Calendula was never going to work out. She liked him for his confidence and the fact that he would pursue her despite all objections. But he liked her as an escape from his duties. What it comes down to it, those reasons are fundamentally incompatible; running away from his duties runs counter to the confidence she wanted.

She probably knew it would come down to this for a long time, because if he were really the man she wanted him to be, he wouldn't have let objections stop them from marrying. But I think she wanted to hope that it'd still work out somehow, and stayed longer against her best judgement.

@LightningLeaf I lol'ed at this.

I've got the impression the uncle could turn out to be a bit too much of a siscon and yandere and that might cause trouble later.
Anyway, Luna's wish for an happy family was granted..except for the part about having a normal child.

My theory on why Rani and the others didn't end up with Inglis and Tiffanier: Rani has gotten really good at controlling her own aether (we've seen that she's learning how to use it exponentially faster than Inglis did by watching her use it), and probably did something similar on her own without realizing it, and everyone else wound up with her. The Steelblood Front guy could have as well.

So the pontifex was likely offed by whoever has been providing the revelations, I suspect. It looked like her choker was set to detonate if she tried to reveal their identity.

I liked this volume, mostly because it was actually about Sansui. Had this series always been like this I would've liked it more, even if it turned out to be shorter.

@xdbx said in Dimension Wave Vol. 7 Discussion!:

Well, if/when V8 comes out, it will need to start with Yami pushing Kizuna off the cliff once again.

But afterwards, I'd like to see Kizzy and Shouko spend more time together. One of the more subtly entertaining aspects of V7 has been the steadily decreasing interval between Kizuna's repeated mentions of Shouko. It was almost like he was subtly going through withdrawal.

I think I would have enjoyed the end of this part more if he'd quietly reached out to Shouko first and they got to actually share some screen time solo before the entire cast piled on.

I waited until the Light Novel publication to read this volume. The story was surprisingly idealistic in the way pretty much all people behave sensibly and unselfishly. In particular Ryan, Layala and Carolus shown to be the ideals of chivilric kings without any of the practicality of needing levels of compromised exploitation to lead and rule a populace.

That on top of all the People of the Forest coming around the save the day rather then their earlier depictions as cautious secretive people who appear randomly and disappear just as quickly without risking their knowledge to outsiders (as previously described in the first two volumes). Of course I am willing to see that they bent their ethics somewhat to appeal to Misha.

Another thing that strikes me is a total lack of consideration for the taking away of Misha and locking her away from her duties as the scion of a noble house and hostage. Even if Ryan was not interested in the scenario her father would desire the care and looking after of his daughter.

Finally I was saddened to see the undercurrent of Lolita leanings with people being fascinated by Misha to develop to a full on underhanded symbolic confession of love between a 20 something and a 13 or 14 year old girl.

Otherwise it was a nice read, a bit less fairy-tale then the previous two novels, and the only danger being a half paragraph of slightly angry people gave it a very safe feel despite the theme of a plague outbreak. I think I liked Nel the most as he had the most sense of having his own agendas around his actions.

Perhaps the most fairy-tale thing about the volume is how so many people she encountered last two volumes all turned up to help at exactly the right timings.

prologue:
"me and my guypal chat over tea and cake"

ch03:
these mofos on a chill-at-home basis 🤭

bruh, you could change da landscape into an iceland and skurt circles around mofos
could be a hell of a team-play
also, Yu-Gi-Oh

Ryo, ya not-gf gonna be pissed

After leaving Kailadi, everything went smoothly until the morning of the second day.

suddenly, Majora's Mask

ch04:
Ryo,... you could've put the fire out

...an assassin joins the party 🤷🏿‍♂️

ch05:
the milk's a Trugun reference, isn't it?
Ryo, having one job: "i'm gonna finish my food first, then i'll sound the alarm."

ch05.1:
hell, yeah, femme!Ryo 🙌🏿

Kala, the swordswoman-cum-bodyguard, announced, commencing the meeting.

wut?

ch06?:

“They invite their neighbors to come at the dead of the night—let’s say two thirty in the morning— and they walk around as a group, holding torches and wearing white cloaks that cover them from head to toe... They can make the event even more atmospheric by wearing creepy white masks.”

. . . is that a Klan reference?
shit, didn't Forest Gump pull something similar? 😑
am i gonna have to cancel another manga?

z02:
lul Oscar gettin' older sisters treatment
and this mofo rejected it
...somebody fanfic'd that yet? 👀 Oscar rediscoverin' love and family, sticking with his newfound older sisters, letting go of hate, forming new defensive fire magic,... and then puberty uwu?
(i'm aware that the bs of masculinity in a society may require one to deny the greatest of pleasures etc. it's still funny, though)

wait, why's this party called Shootingspree- oh~

There was a mentioned that Raymond changed de to the influence of his fiancée, I wonder if she's going to be the real final boss, and the demon lord will become an ally of Lofus in this timeline. We already saw that Warm is now indebted with him instead, and the heroines are steadily joining his harem.
I also think the alraune lady is going to become his familiar in the future. The big question is what it will be of the game protagonist.
Also, reading that the author started with FFX-2 made me feel old since my first one was FFVII.

The ending was rather abrupt...Anyway, a fun volume, although I missed Zelos' love interests.
