@charles-georges Nothing yet

I vaguely recall this was one of the 'rare' isekai titles that I just didn't 'get.' Well, I'll still give it a vote.

@terabyte said in Tensei Shitara Ken Deshita: Seems volume 6 of this one came out on 30th October 2018. Just found it randomly, so a random bump for this series too 😋 Thanks for the bump! The manga is awesome!!!

I upvoted this too, though I do understand the chances for this are, well, down there. It did have a pretty full adaptation to anime, or at least closure with the third and final part, but with 16 volumes a lot must not have made into the anime. Didn't know about the sequel series so thanks for mentioning it.

Looks interested, I'd like to read it.

They say something about a foil in the Twitter post.

@raitoiro Well that's what people call Romcom. In Fantasy terms, that's like defeating the demon lord in the 2nd chapter~ Also, Buta Seishun or Monogatari or any other series where it starts with blocking the romcom aspect from the start (except for SAO), it's to turn the audience attention from "just who will win" to the actual themes the story hold. (those 2 examples are coming of age/teen drama with supernatural elements as plot device, after all) So, instead of just people wondering "is it Yuki or Yui or Saika?", it's more about the stories these characters have to tell. (or just who's the cutest...) Well, in Romance/Drama, the focus is different from romcom (so they have different audience, I feel like you hit it up with drama-type/tragedy more) Well, in this title: Vol. 1-2: Romcom Vol. 3: It seems it would be a bit heavy cuz there's some distance between the main characters Vol.4: The heaviest as they go into some characters' background and kinda like the end. Vol.5: After 2 heavy vols, he decided to give some fan-service (not swimsuit type but having a couple event) and end the series on happy note (instead of dramatic one).

@aruseus493 lol, that book cover with a bunch of regular and buff Sheas xD it's damn priceless. Please JNC, get this!!!

Please, get this along with Izure Shinwa no Ragnarok, I love Namekojirushi-sensei!!!!

I think a Goblin Slayer story focused on a goblin could work maybe. John Gardner managed to make Grendel look like the good guy (and Beowulf the bad guy). We could see the story of one of the Goblins that didn't come out of his hole, or one of the Goblins whose whole family died to Goblin Slayer, but he managed to live, and he plans revenge. Goblins themselves are being manipulated and used by the people controlling the board, the "gods". They're the ones who made the rule that Goblins can't reproduce without a human host. I've always thought it'd be interesting to explore what would happen if a woman they saved gave birth to a Goblin, and then an orphanage decided to take the Goblin in from birth. Is the way they act in their genes, or is it a learned parental environment thing? I do want this series. Having a goblin lead should be interesting, reincarnated human or no.

That's great, i'm still hoping for it to be picked !

@stardf29 I did talk about my doubts with someone who read a bit of the Manga adaptation, however, I didn't get anything. I might check the Manga at some point. As you said, most synopses suck and that's why I usually write my own for my suggestions, so been checking various Manga adaptation of suggested series lately to know how to deal with these titles I've never been exposed to nor the synopsis hold anything useful about the story. Some proved that the series is more than synopsis like Assassin pride. Some just told a very different story from the synopsis like Kenja no mago and Risou no Himo Seikatsu. and some just feed my concerns that the series ain't for me like World Teacher and FUNA's work.

The prologue is tough to get through, and the first arc (which isn't that long) is meh and kind of depressing, but it really picks up from there. His luck does eventually change, though you will always hate the stupid god that is the cause of the whole mess. I mean, you're meant to hate him. All those tags are appropriate and applicable.
