Finally caught up... been so busy with work that the parts had piled up...

I also did not see the arch priestess being Nameless. It does make a kind of sense... but leads me to wondering what's become of the Spirit King?

And I had to laugh at him going all Gate of Babylon on Hydra at the end.

@dragon3010 My impression was that she was the First Princess of this generation. I have been wrong before though.

The answer may be far less mysterious then it appears on the surface. She is apparently the daughter of the High King of Greif... she called him father when she killed him and the discussion between Hydra and Ladon after seemed to confirm it. And we know that Greif was founded by the brother of the 3rd Emperor. That would have made him also a member of the von Grantz family. So, assuming the line has reminded unbroken, the current first princess of the kingdom of Greif would also be a von Grantz.

@Betenoire Hey, give them credit... they are starting to come around!

Slowly.

With much self denial.

@heimdal7 yeah idk, alot of this ending is a bit weird to me? Maybe I misread myself but yeah I don't quite get why she could use all those powers with what she called "demonifcation" or w.e.

I'm glad to whoever's idea it was to have Alicia go commando ;)

I feel like this series is good but also maybe doesn't explain enough? Unless it's ment to confuse us as a reveal later but I think it could be done better if so.

@TheGrimLich what I like is that each of these plots brings something different that make the series more interesting. We got the satisfaction of Light getting his revenge on his former party, there are the battles with the masters where he and the summons have to actually put effort, plus all the matter about C that is still shrouded in mystery.
I'm not claiming this series is a masterpiece, but I'm really enjoying it, which is all that matters to me.

@Mythmuncher said in D-Genesis Vol. 6 Discussion!:

Volume 6, part 1:
'carying' should be 'carrying'.

I appreciate you trying to report this, but there's a couple things you should be aware of.

Firstly, we don't report errors in the prepub discussion topics—each series has its own thread dedicated to prepub corrections that you can find linked in the first post of every discussion thread. It makes it easier for the translation/editing team to find our reports if they're all in one place, you see. For D-Genesis, that thread would be https://forums.j-novel.club/topic/5432/d-genesis-corrections-topic?_=1706629330064

However, Volume 6 has already been published so that thread would no longer be a good place to report the issue. The folks at J-Novel Club request that if we find errors in a published book that we send them to support@j-novel.club.

However, I looked at my own published copy of Volume 6 and this particular issue was already fixed in the published version. The translation team doesn't always update the prepub parts to fix errors that get reported, so if you're reading volumes through the web reader (possibly renting?), just keep in mind errors you see might have already been found and fixed in the published version.

Yay for slime diaries giving a different perspective on the events.

Shiori's impact is probably wider than many think, after all if you then include all the monsters who moved into living together with people and the bonds that are forming because of Rurii and Shiori... no to mention it's just getting started for some things. The preserved food the adventurer business is starting up, the search magic, some new revelations about combined magic, and even some changes in terms of education are really just at the starting line. Toss in the changes that her cuisine and the deepening of trade/interaction with the eastern nation.

I can't wait for Shiori to meet with Oliver and realize he was the "lost" man from back then. I wonder if it'll come up that she and Rurii was the inspiration to get a slime of his own.

I've just finished reading part 8 of volume 2 and the outcome of the match has left me cradling my head at how things can spiral to such a degree. While I'm curious of how things might play out, I wonder if I want to subject myself to more pain and agony that is to come 🫠

TIL that "harem" is actually a place, not a group of people. Yes, the dictionary definition is "the part of the house where the female family members live" and has nothing to do with a group of people at all. Anime has corrupted us.

@GeorgeMTO that google translate synopsis...

@myskaros Hi, thank for the reply.
That's understandable, hopefully it doesn't take too long for the schedules to align.
Have a nice day.

Brie, you genius! Bless your childlike heart!

Hi,

We don’t have a specific date set for when Volume 6 will begin pre-publication on the site at this time.

For a general overview of how new volumes are released at J-Novel Club, please refer to the following topic: https://forums.j-novel.club/topic/3478/future-volume-release-schedule

We are working diligently to release all Japanese volumes of our licensed titles as quickly as possible without compromising on quality.

Sometimes I'm a bit regretful that Elinasze isn't an adopted daughter so it would be easier to ship her. Not that there is any chance of Flio getting more girls, in this series it's not the protagonist who gets an harem.
In a series with tons of established relationships, it feels a but weird for me to say that I'd like to see some more progress on side ships like Garyl and Ellie, Dale Orst and Greanyl, Hero Gold Hair and Tsuya. I'd also like for Flio and Hero Gold Hair to meet again, have at least an adventure together and become proper friends. Maybe in the final volume?

@Geezer-Weasalopes it feels like you're one of the few people who understood what this series is about at this point, and I'm glad for it. I never expected this to be as philosophical or introspective as it did, and it's amazing how well the author has thought through the character's motivations. Few have the guts to actually make characters introspect like this.

Didn't they say the fleet came back and searched for them for a week? Did Ernie and Addy just not see/hear it patrolling in that time?

@pcj let's be real, she would be the final boss of Baki. She absolutely could stop an earthquake just by punching the ground once she's all grown up. And God help Lynokis if she still hasn't learned to respect her master.

Wow, he knows that he's messed up history and thus the future isn't for sure that he knows. But he's strongly convinced he still has the full year to prepare and that they won't be pushed to start earlier to make up for this loss.

Looks like the match between Prettia and Hao might just end the continent, but, I guess there's an intermission. And Kelvin had 20 volumes of poetry published without his knowledge. Harsh.

this has been altogether one of the most mature ways I've seen of handling ero scenes. Masterful use of show, don't tell.

Also, the ending is sheer class.
