The problem with unpopular series is that sometimes you have no other way of enjoying them while waiting for the manga but to read the LN/WN and discuss those, yet /jp/'s userbase is vastly different from /a/'s and making a thread over there ends up with you getting shitposted to page 404 or getting your thread deleted on /a/. This is because mods are low level fags and most don't even watch anime and are nerds.

This is only a problem with unpopular series, like I said. You won't see an Overlord thread getting deleted for LN discussion any time soon.
>>
Back on topic, though.
Anyone have any idea what the author is planning with Shun?
All I can currently see him is getting either massacred by the Demon Lord or being killed by Shiro after he somehow manages to actually defeat the Demon Lord.
>>
>>140394040
Shun is useless as long as he's neutered by his Ruler skills. Fucker couldn't even kill Yuugo.
>>
>>140393911
Since when was it against the rules to discuss LN content from currently airing/serialized anime/manga?
>>
>>140394143
Never, the discussion in the last thread shifted toward Duke's Daughter (which has a manga as well) and I guess the mod was simply a fag.
>>
>>140394143
Current moderation really seems to hate LNs, since they delete threads on sight. Kind of funny, considering how many threads on /a/ belong on other boards but get active protection and cleanup from mods/janitors.
>>
>>140394118
Yeah, I know.
But he did reach Taboo Lv. 10 in the last fight.
And he can't simply become a god using the means Shiro had.
This is why I keep thinking what the author has in store for us, since -- as I said -- I can see him only being eradicated from existence because that's a major point of Shiro's plan.

Well, let's hope the author's slump ends soon.
>>
>>140394143
I think since 2013.
With /a/'s 5th rule
>Japanese visual novels should be posted in /jp/, and Western on /vg/.


And /jp/'s 2nd rule
>This is the appropriate board for the discussion of Japanese visual novels and light novels. Western visual novels should be posted to /vg/, and translated visual novels are fine on either board.

And while, yes, it doesn't specifically say anything about LN, they still get deleted sometimes.

They are not really enforced though so there's a lot of discrepancy between mods.

This is becoming a meta thread so I'll stop now.
>>
>>140394308
But she's obviously unwilling to kill him since she had plenty of opportunities to do so.

At this point the only narrative choices for him are to join Shiro because of Taboo or somehow assemble a powerful enough force to oppose her. Maybe it's possible if Shiro pisses Kuro off enough for him to change sides.

Each manga chapter covers roughly ~3 WN chapters. Which means ~60 chapters more before Arachne Kumoko. Which means two more years of serialization.
>>
>>140394309
Mods on /jp/ delete LN threads even faster than on /a/, and the /jp/ posters generally hate LNs and fill any threads about them with shitposting and requests for the threads to be posted on /a/. Despite what the moderation says, /a/ is the only place where they fit.
>>
>>140394412
>powerful enough force to oppose her
That's not even possible unless your second point becomes real because I extremely doubt that the author will pull some shit and make one of the other students a god.
Also, for him to switch sides, would mean some extremely drastic stuff that Shiro had to pull.
Remember when she locked him away and his 'little paradise' was destroyed completely by Oni? Even then, he was satisfied by beating him up.
Or the Queen Summon that happened rather early (story telling wise).
>>
>>140394681
Maybe Shun manages to wake up Sariel.
That would ensure Kuro switches sides.
>>
So I read some of this and it just turns into generic chuuni demon lord shit?
I mean I know I should have expected nothing less but still. At least the spider looks cute
>>
Can somebody explain to me how combining the souls of
>solemn and cynical Demon Lord

somehow gives you "Maou Shoujo Ariel-chan~"?

>>140394974
>>140394926
Not to mention that this was specifically Body-in-Charge, the dumbest personality.
>>
>>140394789
The demon lord is extremely un-chuu2.
The most chuu2 character in the series is the vampire girl and she keeps getting shit from everyone else for it.
>>
>>140395002
Because appraisal is still useless at the time and she can level grind it faster mass appraising new areas of the cave.

You mean in the theoretical scenario where the Wrath skill didn't activate? Because he pretty handily kicked her ass after it did.
>>
>>140395512
We must have read something different. While it's true that he started getting the upper hand, he was still in a much worse position than she was. And we never got to see her use Envy since Kuro interrupted right as she activated it.
>>
>>140395413
That reminds me of how Kumoko had to douse herself with poison whenever she got set on fire because she didn't know any water magic.

>>140399939
Well the story went out of its way to make you think Kumoko was Rihoko. It wasn't revealed until elf battle when Sophia met Shun and Katia.
>>
>>140399913
That came after her true identity was revealed. Before it was set in stone the author was quite clearly trying to ruse the reader into assuming she was Rihoko.

>>140399939
You know what I mean.
>>
>>140399824
The manga hasn't shown her face yet though. All we know is that she has an attractive body and long hair.

For all you know she could be a butterface.
>>
>>140400063
True. Maybe the manga artist just decided to make her look like every other girl in the class, who were also attractive.
>>
>>140400154
Shiro is insta-boner material going by the reactions regular plebs had when she wasn't using glamour to make everyone see white, and from what Shun and Ogre-kun said her face is still the same as it was while she was Wakaba.
>>
>>140400271
Ninja-kun said the same that she looked exactly the same as previously.
>>
>>140400271
I mean going from a manga-only reader perspective.

Clearly if you're caught up with the web novels you know Kumoko (and D)'s true identity and that she's drop-dead gorgeous, but for the manga which is still trying to make the case that she's unpopular, there's still a possibility that she's unattractive since it hasn't shown her face to the readers yet.

How did Kumoko even interpret "herself" as unpopular anyways?
It's implied that she mixed up her memories as a spider and Wakaba Hiiro's memories together and the spider's unpleasant memories influenced her impression of Wakaba Hiiro's life but did she never re-examine her memories and go "huh, all these boys were regularly confessing to me and called me the number one beauty in the school, was I really unpopular?"
>>
>>140400691
Seeing how they treat regular genre fiction it wouldn't be pretty, think of the as /mu/ but for books. Haven't been to either place in a good long while though.

No one is translating the LN.

Only the web novel is translated.

The slowest translator is blastron who didn't manchine edit so he is at 70 chapters.

The fastest translator that machine edit caught up with the raws so it is up to you.

Note that the author has writer's block and put this series at hiatus at like chapter 170 or something.

She interpreted hersefl as unpopular because D is the God of Death in charge of the Underworld.

Death Gods were never popular gods to begin with aka Hades for example.

So some of D's personality and bias in that soul fragment she gave to Kumuko influenced her perception that she was unpopular.

If, on the other hand, D was the Goddess of Love, then Kumuko would have a very different view of herself.

No, her endgame is to destroy the retarded leveling system that D put in so the world may not collapse.

The bad thing is that most, if not all of the world's population won't survive if they have a fuckton of skills since those will go away once the system falls, and the bits and pieces of souls that those skills are attached to.
>>
>>140403928
No, Kuro isn't on board. What Shiro has told Kuro and Ariel is just that lots of deaths are gonna happen, which Kuro agreed to. Shiro's true plan involves killing EVERYONE, which she stated neither of the two would agree to.

Because it was Shiro's assigned task. Shiro was given the task to save the world if she wants to become one of D's kin.
>>
>>140403770
Heh I sure as hell would if i had that op as fuck equipment.
>>
>>140403965
Its said that hardly anyone would survive force ejecting the system. Which is why she kept it to herself.
>>
>>140401607
She's currently writing another series with at roughly the same pages per week as she was writing Kumo. If she starts Kumo after finishing Escape Sheep Land, we have until mid May-early July in terms of wait time (assuming that Escape Sheep Land is a book-length story).
>>
>>140403977
>Shiro's true plan involves killing EVERYONE, which she stated neither of the two would agree to.
What? She never planned on killing everyone, the part she hid from them was that a LOT of people would die from skill deprivation, not that EVERYONE would die.

The real reason Kuro would probably disagree with her full plan is probably >>140403994
Though where exactly did she confirm that her plan was going to end with Sariel dead?
>>
>>140404134
It was a hyperbole, as i stated here >>140404012
doing it will pretty much kill almost everyone. Thats why she didn't tell Ariel and Kuro, and also the Sariel bit for Kuro.
>>
>>140403804
Sariel is getting very, very depressed. If you reread the S chapters after Yuugo fucks shit up, the time when Katia calls out Shun's behavior are basically Shun voicing Sariel's feelings. For all we know, Shun's special Ruler skill might be to call out Sariel to aid him. He is the Ruler of Kindness, after all.
>>
>>140404134
She didn't confirm it but it's pretty much guaranteed because Sariel is super hooked up into the system. There's probably no way to take it down without killing her too.
>>
>>140404235
What? The special skill for Ruler of Kindness was the resurrection ability.
>>
>>140404235
I'd say its more likely that the hero can link with Sariel.
>>
>>140404195
M-maybe Maou Shoujo Ariel-chan will ascend to godhood before shit goes down?
Surely Shiro wouldn't leave her soul twin/grandma to get caught up in the apocalypse?
>>
>>140404354
Part of Shiro's plan involves figuring out a way to save Ariel and Sophia and Oka and the other few she cares about.
>>
>>140403977
>>140404195

I really doubt that Shiro's final goal is to end the system while killing nearly everyone. Remember, every narrator is unreliable and Shiro likes styling herself a villain. If she turns off the system that way, her new daughter Sophia will definitely die. There might be a cheat she made for her to remove skills without killing people, as seen in S29.
>>
>>140404455
Shiro has already said that in retrospect her training Sophia so much was probably a bad idea since it made her more likely to die because of her plan.
>>
>>140404294
Nope. Kindness is a Ruler skill, while becoming Ruler of Kindness (the title) grants you two skills. Of those title skills, one is a very high level skill and a unique skill the Ruler gets. For example,when Kumoko gets the Ruler skill Pride, the Ruler of Pride title gives her Abyss Magic lvl 10 and the Ruler specific skill Hell. Since we haven't appraised Shun, we don't know what his Ruler specific (ie Hell-like) skill is.

>>
>>140404455
Isn't it all but confirmed that Shiro is the one responsible for Skill Erasure? It's probably something like:

Witnessing Oka use her Ruler skill to erase Yuugo's skills -> get inspired -> hack Skill Erasure into the system so everyone can use it instead of just the Ruler of Charity -> people erase their skills -> less fallout when the System collapses
>>
>>140404560
Where do you think he got the ridiculous resurrection ability then you dumb ass.

>implying a knight cleans his own armor.

Thats what a squire is for, rubbing down the armor with white sand and vinegar. If they were lucky, they could put it in a barrel and roll it around instead of doing by hand.
>>
>>140404560
>>140404662
This, the res ability goes against the system, it even raises Taboo level every time Shun used it. It's obviously his Ruler ability.

Yea, but she then says that she wants to find some sort of countermeasure for Sophia (see ch 234). I doubt Shiro's just going to give up and let her die.Sophia is nearly always in her thoughts.

>>140404347
That's what I originally said >>140403766

Yeah but she's boosted with D's memories so it's really not that different.
>>
>>140404662
>>140404765
I think you are misunderstanding me. The skill 'Kindness' is the res ability. I'm saying he got another skill for being Ruler of Kindness, through the title, like Sophia's 'Root of Evil', Wrath's 'Enma', Sensei's 'Presentation', and Kumoko's 'Conviction', 'Degeneration'. The skills like 'Presentation' use the soul's power to work. These skills are not properly all explained, but they can do crazy shit like opening Hell, doing unblockable damage, etc. I'm saying that the skill Shun got, like one of these, summons Sariel.

>>140404658
that's partially my thinking behind it as well, but I think Skill Erasure is a separate from Presentation, which is probably what Sensei used. Sensei's skill was basically immediate, while they say in S29 that it takes several days for the Skill Erasure skill to work. I think it's another case of the author quietly foreshadowing something and people forgetting it since it's part of the side chapters.

If we go under the assumption that it's a Shiraori Special Knockoff of Skill Erasure that's been modified for everybody it's not unreasonable for it to be less potent than the original.
>>
>>140405325
And by Skill Erasure I mean Presentation.

Skill Erasure being a knockoff of the original Presentation, I mean. Not unrelated by not the same thing either.

>>

I agree that your idea is equally valid, and we just need to wait and see. Hopefully not to long (although I personally think we have quite a few chapters until the Demon War).

>>140404930
I wonder how Shiro's going to react when Sophia ages (physically) past her. She's basically stuck an immortal teenager like Ariel.
>>
>>140399824

Yeah no way a freak like Rihoko would pose like that.

That reminds me, the manga also positioned Kumoko somewhere on the back in the class while in the WN/LN Shun mentioned that Rihoko sits somewhere on the front.

>>
>>140405448
I approve of this ending.
>>
>>140405765
The story is carried by an entertaining protagonist with enjoyable action which you don't really see in her hikki stage. The fact that it has a well constructed world on top of that isn't really apparent for a while. It's really just best to read the WN and use the manga as a supplement (as it's probably meant to be).
>>
>>140405765

there is a significant tone shift later, the first part of the story is kumo surviving by the skin of her teeth

All of these problems and the requirements of drastic measures and the suffering it will bring and has brought so far just because Kuro was (and possibly still is) a faggot.
I mean, what kind of legitimate right or reason at all would he have to stop Shiro?
She's just cleaning his mess.

His woman a shit, Shiro should have killed her when he was locked away.
>>
>>140406247
Kuro is a rabid dog on a pretty tight leash. When he got drunk he said that basically the only thing stopping him from destroying the world is Sariel. With her gone, how much shit do you think that would bring Shiro? She isn't powerful enough to stop that angry dragon.
>>
>>140406441
She's been preparing and planning for the inevitable fight for years. She most likely is taking into account his rage when he learns he was tricked and the outcome of it into account.
>>
>>140406705
That's true. Although from her latest estimate after Kuro was released, she put herself at a [/spoiler]20% victory chance after 13 years of prep time[/spoiler].

By the way, has there been any announcement for when Vol 3 of the LN comes out?

I think it's the manga author trying to do the foreshadowing in his own way. It's going to take a long-ass time before the question of Kumoko's true identity pops up or Rihoko gets mentioned, so by then most readers will forget the details from the first chapters.

What happens when you try to take a soul out of the jurisdiction of the System anyways?

Or, in other words, what would happen if Shiro tried to take any of her classmates back to Earth? Since the System directly meddles with their soul to manifest skills once you take them out of said System and to another world does their soul implode or stay fine?

Shiro already separated herself from the System prior to traveling to Earth so she can't exactly be used as a case study.
>>
>>140410291
Probably similar to what happens if you strip their skills? Pure speculation, though.
What I mean, more skills, equals the soul being bound more to that world, and basically resulting in death, or whatever.

These 2 are actually the minority when you consider the Isekai genre. "Save it from destruction" is usually avoided or has a 'twist" since thats cliche as fuck, even more than the RPG tropes.

And Magic Academy in isekai usally doesn't exist(BUT THE GODDAMN GUILDS DO) or in the majority of the cases is simply not a focus of the the story(Although of course you have stuff like Magi's Grandson..but you know, very few of those)
