>>141900011
Well, if at least it gives her more screentime, it's kinda sad how unimportant she is compared to the other harem members. Like, she is only important because she can make pancakes, and that's just sad.
>>141897691
I watch Aliens no Blade Dance every week
>>141902694
No, this series has a blue Houki. She is pink Shana number II.
>>141898097
You mean the only girl with a semblance of competence and maturity, as well as the only one who can actually think? The one who, despite constantly getting kidnapped, actually works and plans?
Claire a shit. A SHIT.
Haven't read this for quite a while now, what has happened already? I stopped reading when Restia got an amnesia
>>141902922
She isn't even pink tho.
She's just Shana number II.
>>141903330
Restia got un-amnesia'd by her old comrade the loli-baba dragon king and is now even more OP than before. She can apparently absorb and command the Otherworldly Darkness (not to be confused with your regular ol' vanilla darkness) at will now.
Greyworth is now evil and axe-crazy and can kick Kamito's ass six ways to Sunday until Restia bails him out.
Kamito went too far with Fianna and now she's marked with the Seal of the Darkness Elemental Lord which makes her super-horny. This is just like my Chinese porno game plots.
Rubia shittalks Claire for being weak and unable to draw out Scarlet's true power. So she goes on a training arc where she enters a cave that shows her the weakness in her heart (getting kinda Star Warsy here) and an illusionary Rubia beats the shit out of her until she realizes that being tsundere is LITERALLY nerfing her and she LITERALLY gains a massive powerup and unlocks Scarlet's true form by declaring her love for Kamito.
Leonara straight up tells Kamito that she wants his baby batter inside her.
Rinslet is also known as the "snack person" among the spirits at the academy.
Claire a shit
>>141905005
NO
BULLY
>>141900356
Too much tsun not enough dere.
>>141902000
Technically every fight is called a blade dance, so there were multiple blade dances in the anime.
>>141903942
>That scene where the loli-baba dragon king asks him what girl he is going to pick
>He acts like he doesn't even know what she's talking about
So is he literally retarded or is he trying to drag out picking until harem end becomes inevitable?
>>141906002
He's socially retarded from being raised by Restia and Greyworth.
>>141906002
Hes swordsexual.
The thought of any ending other than fucking his swords has never occurred to him.
>>141906043
With how obvious the girls have made it by now he'd have to be brain damaged to not get the hint.
>>141906146
He's definitely into girls.
>>141903942
>Kamito went too far with Fianna and now she's marked with the Seal of the Darkness Elemental Lord which makes her super-horny. This is just like my Chinese porno game plots.
Damn, this makes her really important to the plot now. Shes not just explain things to everyone anymore.
Best girl indeed.
>>141903942
>Leonara straight up tells Kamito that she wants his baby batter inside her.
And she continues to be cute as hell
>>141906462
Not really, it's just a new thing that happens when he kisses girls where he gives them some of the darkness lord's powers. She wasn't the first one it happened with but he was the most corrupted by the power when he kissed her so she got more darkness shit. It's less about her becoming important and more about him gaining harem king powers.
>>141906462
Eh, not really. You know all the girls are going to get marked eventually.
Her being the motherfucking queen of their government in exile plays far more in making her relevant.
This is a japanese sword.
>>141906723
Pretty sure shes European what with her default form being all boradswordy.
Restia is more Japanese
>>141906462
Fianna was always important to the plot even if it was as a damsel in distress for the most part.
She has more connections to important characters and plot points than anyone else besides Kamito.
Meanwhile poor Rinslet and Ellis are slipping further into irrelevance. Hell fucking Leonara came out of nowhere and surpassed them in a blink of an eye.

Meanwhile the Laurenfrosts have just become a glorified home base for the main characters with tasty food and warm beds.

>>141906951
I don't think you can be called neutral when both your daughters are running around having picked a side.
One as a terrorist also.
>>141906951
>neutral nobles
This is code for "they're not going to be involved in the story".
Even if Rinslet's family doesn't do anything meaningful at least we actually get to see them on a regular basis doing cute things.

>Muir rolling around in Kamito's bedsheets has become a normal occurrence for him

>>141907023
Neither of the daughters actually have any political clout though.
>>141907066
Rinslet's little sister just got contracted with a spirit so she might end up relevant later on.
>Ellis's role in the party was to be "that other melee fighter not named Kamito who runs around fighting the weak fodder while Kamito deals with the important things"
>but Leonara is probably going to end up joining the party, and she's also a melee fighter who's strong enough to be actually useful
Poor Ellis, she has nothing left going for her.
>>141907348
Sister sandwich.
Although every character other than Fiana can do that at this point.
Whatever happened to Claire becoming Kamito's "Darkness Queen".
It was like the most important thing in the world and waved around like Claire's gold trophy in the Kamitob owl and then the author totally dropped it and never mentioned it again.
Did he suddenly change his mind and decide to write a harem end instead? Because that's where this new "demon king and his concubines" thing seems to be headed.
>>141907508
Fiana is the only girl who's utility is unique at this point. I wonder if the author actually likes her or not, since she seems to be one of the more prominent heroines.
>>141907834
Her utility is slipping as well though since Kamito's demon king powers can do everything she can for him but better. Heal, buff, etc.
>>141907810
He realized that Claire a shit and backed out at the last second.
Wise decision.
Loli dragon tells it like it is.
Why DOESN'T Kamito go for the Leonara route?
>>141907508
Fianna and the fire queen loli sister sandwich soon
>>141908063
Not a sword
Too lewd
>>141908063
Because having a boner 24/7 from being around this semen demon would be uncomfortable as hell.
Would you a loli baba dragon king.
>>141907508
Ellis' sister is actually turning dere already though.
>>141907964
Well she always has a place as the one who knows fucking everything. Also I think Kamito can't actually heal others, just himself.
>>141908356
Shes been dere from the second she found out who Kamito is.
Its just she was mia for a million volumes
>>141907348
Having a wind spirit is insanely useful, and it's stated constantly her and Kamito have the best teamwork together. If you're going to feel bad about anyones role it should be Rinslet, her sniping is only useful as cover and when shooting down enemy projectiles.
>>141908393
>>141908356
Too bad she's half-dead already and quickly accelerating to being completely dead.
>>141907810
It wasn't really dropped. It was part of a villain's plan that they foiled, it was never something they wanted to do.
>>141908063
I hope that secretly he's slow playing it because he realizes that if all the girls come to be unable to live without him before he chooses one then it'll be easy to go the harem route, but really he's just a typical dense to the point of retardation MC who has girls proposition him for sex and he just goes huh?
>>141908455
Just needs a kissu from Kamito to fix all her problems.
>>141908467
They didn't really foil Rubia completely, Claire still became the Darkness Queen but she managed to snap out of brainwashing and tell Rubia to fuck off before using her new powers to suppress the Demon King's effect on Kamito.
But after the Blade Dance tournament Claire's powers as the Darkness Queen are never brought up again despite Kamito's demon king powers starting to run rampant again.
>>141908418
This, Ellis has tons of utility outside of fighting. Even if she doesn't have brute power she can still support Kamito well and perform other roles like scouting.
>>141908700
Her Darkness Queen stuff is only relevant when she's interacting with Kamito though, which she hasn't really done since then. They've been separated and she's been in denial about everything, I'm sure it'll come up again as he starts to have more problems with the demon king stuff.
So, take your bets lads, how many volumes until Kamito is separated from Restia? Again?
>>141908268
In a heartbeat.
>>141908786
>I'm sure it'll come up again as he starts to have more problems with the demon king stuff.
He probably won't, since everything points to him getting control over his powers in full thanks to Restia next volume.
In the end, what could a silly human girl possibly hope to accomplish? Clearly swords are the way to go for Kamito.
>>141908991
Stop shitposting, Est.
>As for the customary popularity poll, according to Volume 14's survey, Restia and Est occupied the number one and number two spots respectively, separated by an extremely small gap. Fianna was third. From the letters and comments in the survey responses, I can tell that everyone is reading the story very seriously. I truly cannot express my endless gratitude enough to everyone who has supported me so far.
The age of Fianna love has finally come!
>>141906723
That japanese sword is my waifu.
>>141908770
Not to mention being able to fly and make other people fly is crazy useful.
>>141909049
It will never come. Swords are just too popular. Fianna will be displaced once another girl gets spotlight. She's my favorite girl, but her archetype was never very popular in Japan.
>>141908991
>Clearly swords are the way to go for Kamito.
If this were true he wouldn't have an internal struggle to keep himself under control every time one of the girls does something lewd.
W-Whenever I look at you, my heart pounds nonstop and I feel very weird. Ever since the first time we fought, it has been like this the whole time—"
"Leonora..."
Seeing her about to cry, Kamito could not help but close his mouth.
"All this time, I have been thinking about why this is happening. Every day, almost unable to sleep, always thinking about you... Now, I have finally figured it out—"
Leonora stared at Kamito.
"This is my instinct, stemming from the Dragon Blood I inherited, wishing to obtain your powerful seed!"
"Wait a sec, what's with that crazy leap of logic!?"
Leonara a cute retard.
>>141909049
>The age of Fianna
Third place with a small fraction of the votes of first or second.
The gap between the swords and everyone else is always HUGE.
>>141909236
And yet she's still less clueless than Kamito.
>Girl describes how she''s in love with you, says she wants to have your baby
>Tsukkomi and then completely forget about it and move on with your life
>Repeat for 7 different girls

So, /a/nons, what are you expecting the next volume to contain? And how likely do you think this'll actually have a satisfying harem end?
>>141909360
>And how likely do you think this'll actually have a satisfying harem end?
Like 95%, the author is making a huge mistake with the progression if he isn't intending a harem end, he keeps progressing all the girls and introduced multiple story elements to try and justify a harem.
>>141909349
He's playing the long con, he has to keep pretending to not realize what's going on until he's marked all the girls with the seal of the darkness lord and it's too late for any of them to back out of the harem end.
>>141909360

>>141909514
Thats what I hope for too but it's probably wishful thinking.
>>141909627
It makes you wonder why she insists on reincarnating as men.
>>141909674
>All the important darkness spirits are girls
>Give the lord's power to men so you can cultivate a harem king of your own choosing
Makes sense to me.
>>141909855
So Ren Ashdoll was the lord of yuri who wanted a harem of cute girls but chose to reincarnate as a man so she could collect even more women?
>>141909627
Meanwhile the light spirits are almost all masculine.
Absolutely disgusting.
I just realized something.
The harem doesn't have an earth spirit user.
Muir volume when?
>>141910289
Best imouto.
But not lewdest imouto.
>>141910289
She's coming back next volume. Rubia recalled her from her mission.
>>141910332
It's gonna be a bloodbath.
>>141910503
She has to learn to share or onii-chan won't give her the dick.
>>141909921
Nah, she was forced to reincarnate as a human so she chose a man so she could be a harem king instead of friends.
>>141909627
>other elemental lords demand that their girls be pure maidens lest they lose their powers
>Darkness lord on the other hand turns all the girls under the influence of her power into horny sex maniacs

Still worst girl. Next volume when? W
>>141911107
I want to molest Restia's legs.
>>141908700
Because it would kill all the drama and giving the main girl too much of an advantage kills the harem since you can't focus on the other girls. It was the best move to drop the Darkness Queen thing and just make all the girls basically take that role.
It'll come back when the author needs to boost Claire again, but I bet that Restia and Est will probably have more of a center role since they are the most popular girls.
>>141909349
He already is married to Restia, so why bother with other girls, idiot.

>>141913092

Every time.
>>141913047
Actually, Claire held 3rd and 4th for a while after post-Darkness Queen Arc C until the most recent poll.
>>141913092
Claire was the only girl I didn't like at the beginning, but she's grown on me since then.
Claire is shit.
>>141913288
>Claire got 3rd after another major arc
>Rinslet got 2nd after her waited arc
>Fianna got 3rd after her arc
All pretty expected patterns. Although Rinslet managing to beat Restia who usually hold 2nd place since she began dominating was a surprise. Rinslet hasn't had an arc in long time and it's seems like she was always sideline, so the longing for her to star in an arc created an explosive result.
>>141912894
Well there's at least 26 of us just in this thread.
>>141913713
Rinslet's volume was pretty good too until the whole confession part got walked back, even though it was obvious it would happen.
>>141912894
Est and Restia will always be most popular, but I don't believe most who are sincerely fans, be it from the anime or novel, are malicious and cold-hearted enough to hate Claire in ways of biased trolls would as though they ignore growth and development. STnBD have always been plagued by a couple of nasty Claire haters who have it out for her and they push really hard on that front, as a result it can't be helped that threads always seem sour, being permeated with shitposts.
>>141897691
all i remember is kneesocks
>>141914072
I don't hate Claire, but honestly I feel her character is pretty weak and just is not interesting to me. Honestly, probably should have been replaced with Rubia or something.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlbLGCbtxbs
So what are your favorite kind of kneesocks? Shima shima? Kuro? Masshiro?
>>141897691
I didn't forget Restia and Est.
>>141914263
We'll have to agree to disagree there. Besides Claire, Rubia is one of my favorites as well, but Rubia wouldn't work without Claire and vice versa. Their roles and reasons in the story now is in part what makes them who they are, so their roles can't be reversed or altered.
Does anyone else get annoyed at how the girls treat him like a scumbag sometimes even though they are supposed to be in love with him and trust him completely? They have no hesitation in believing he'd assault an innocent girl even though they should know he wouldn't do that.
>>141914318
All kneesox are best kneesox
>>141914499
It's a recurring joke, Demon King of The Night, etc, etc.
Don't take it too seriously, anon, the novel itself doesn't.
>>141914566
Well obviously it's a joke, but it's still pretty fucked up considering it hurts his feelings everytime and the rumors just keep spreading more and getting worse. Plus you'd think one of them would realize she could win points with him by treating him better.
>>141914635
>hurts his feelings
Nah, they just need to prevent him from getting too cocky.
>>141914818
It literally says his feelings are hurt every time it happens though. At least once a volume there's a line about him being hurt by being calling him demon king of the night.
>>141915035
Poor wittle Kamito.
His feeling got hurt.
>>141914263
Eh, Claire's motivation and reasons why she mostly behaves the way she did at the start of the story is pretty substantial and strong, imo. Her issue, being related to Rubia and with the way people have treated her in the past, is serious and we see her struggle and she grows, all of which I think makes her more interesting than most of the other girls. She has her quirks and is cute too, like everyone else.
>>141901398
The Darkness Dragon and the Demon King Dragon are different.The Demon King Dragon is somewhere out there, ruling the mountain with the Lightning King Dragon.

Much appreciated.
I now have several new stitches that I didn't have before.

With how the author has been progressing, it's pretty much confirmed. Maybe I'm hoping too much, but this does have great potential. And there aren't many battle harems that actually end with a harem.
>>141923501
Nope, I saw it progressing that way as well. It would feel like quite the asspull to not have a harem end now.
>>141923501
Vanadis will have an harem end too. I mean, even Ellen is ok with that.

>this will never get an anime because of how lewd it is
>if it does get an anime, it will just cover the typical battle school parts and not the awesome stuff later

I've been meaning to start that for a while now. How does it fare?
>>141924051
It starts kind of slow.Very rapidly MC goes from blushing while holding hands to fingering lol elves in movie threatres and getting blowjobs from his sister
Pretty good overall although the latest arc was shitty
>>141923840
He said "there aren't many", not "there isn't any".
Oh, and also DxD has been confirmed for harem end.

Off to the translations I go.

Can you share some? I wasn't able to make that one Restia stitches because it required some knowledge of Photoshop beyond cropping. Didn't work with ICE.
Also, I forgot some stitches of Claire. Probably almost all of them. Especially the usual ones, which the camera panning upward to her face.

I don't think I have that one.
Anyways, most of what I have are non-BD source stitches, which is inferior to the BD stitches >>141921654.

I really like Rinslet a lot. Beautiful legs obviously, but she's also kind.
>>141924989
She's better than Claire at least.
