I appreciate that Ganz picked up on Misha's trauma, as Ryne's tough love approach is not always going to be the correct tool for the job.

@holatuwol Actually, it was not. Because I was worried that

That would have made me galaxy mad.

Sound like this will be a Liner PoV volume, could be fun

@b-scot-morgan Ha, ha. I wish I could give you more than one thumbs up approval.

I didn't gather much from Aurelio's backstory

They basically swapped lives. He was thrown to the church as an orphan when Dina became Don to protect him from her because they thought she'd have him killed. So he grew up in the church, and then was retrieved when Dina was tossed in the drink because he was the spare. And then she went to the church for 10 years. I think. It was indeed a little hard to follow.

Looks like a pretty good relationship is brewing here. I kinda wonder what Ellie and Light are going to do though. Should be epic.

@Valanduin It's a known issue with the reader, happened last week as well - but was fixed quickly after it was reported on Discord - you can still read it on vertical mode, but horizontal is bugged - apparently there are other bugs with horizontal mode at the moment, too.

Nice volume, and with the protagonist already having sex with three girls it's kinda hard to believe this is the same author of Zero believers.
After this big battle against a giant monster, I'm a bit worried that a school festival arc will feel a bit brand in comparison.

Alright. I propose we add another timer. In addition to “Isekai: time to slavery” I suggest we also track “Isekai: time to cross dress”

When you fast-forward through the sex and through the fights, the book really zips along. It’s not one of the better titles here, but it goes quickly.

I'm surprised that the narrative didn't state that the girls passed on the piece of cloth with the frayed embroidery of a crest on it when they told the story of their attack to Marius. Like Helen had said, I would consider it an important lead. Or were we as readers supposed to assume that they did?

It passed it to Eizo so the rest of the group could have Lucy track the attackers by scent

Real test of courage: Facing their families.

There hasn't been any new chapters posted to the WN since Nov 2024.

There's just enough material remaining to publish a volume 7, which will finish the current school arc. So even if the series doesn't continue, at least it won't end on a cliffhanger.

It's interesting that the anima is your "true self" but Sora's anima is a being with history. Does that mean the original soul eater died and reincarnated as Sora In a kind of Hindu system?

Or did it override his original Anima as an opportunist attempting to revive itself?

I kind of get the vibes that his knowledge of Anima is more propaganda than fact. It just seems like anima users are people with corrupted/mutated souls of monsters inside themselves.

Woooo, time to see how their relationship advances.

@karasutengu
A painting of homesickness.

Guessing the lord had a bargain with the mermaid for her tears and it broke down when the entry fees went up. She's probably much older than thirty eight.

This was a nice stroll down memory lane including the banter between Sol and the girls. I was also surprised by Sol's blaming himself for what happened to Mark and Alan and wondering if things would have been different if he had been more forthcoming with them. I never expected him to feel that way this far along in the story, especially since they had attacked him.

So, is the black world tree a person? It certainly seems to be a bit of luck for Krai.

@Hylebos Could be Dozran, the fact that he waited till the final charge indicates to me that the plan was to have the spider kill either the emperor or Duke Raul, considering Volk took the place of Duke Raul to keep up the pretense of that objective hiding the fact that it was actually artilleryman #22. who killed Duke Raul

I would not be surprised if it ends up being someone in the Eins group.

I wonder if the spider is someone that Volk has successfully gotten under his thread thing that is close to Carmine as well.
