LN vol.2 is out, here are some illustrations.
>>138380014
Little sister is ugly.
>>138380251
>Jullius' death
So it's S18-19. At this pace there is a possibility we may see Arachne at the end of the third volume.
>>138380208
Kumo looks weird, I much prefer the manga version.
>>138380539
They'll most likely speed up the arachne evolution. It's what everyone wants to see, plus in the WN there was too short a period between her arachne evo andher ascending to godhood
>>138380882
That poison form certainly is weird, the fuck is with those pimples? Zoa Ere >>138380137 is good enough.
>>138380014
I imagined princes with cliche blond hair. Also I want to fuck Katia.
>>138381050
Who doesn't?
>>138380882
>the manga version
It's really good. That design is the cutest.
>>138380014
Literally anime cliches walking
>>138380014
Who is this riajuu?
>>138381485
MC(Shun side stories).
>>138381527
Does he have a harem?
>>138381539
Two girls for now.
>>138380010
Where is vol 1 illustrations though?
>>138381580
Why isn't the blonde elf here>>138380014
part of his harem?
>reincarnation shit LN
No thanks
>>138381624
She is the teacher and is into spiders.
>>138381624
Because she is the former teacher, muh students and a spiderfag.
>>138380094
Heh
The illustrator sure knows what makes the early part of this series interesting.
>>138380010
Anything new from WN?
>>138381769
No new chapter for weeks
>>138381788
Then , is there anything different/new in vol 2 of LN? Craving for new content.
>>138380882
yeah and in fact her immortal skill was never even used
>>138380014
Nice Overlord feel.
>>138380014
imouto looks kinda yandere
>>138381996
>kinda
>>138380010
Is someone translating the LN version?
>>138381580
>two girls
One's a guy, tho.
>>138382088
He got mind broken.
What the hell, how did we even get to see Shun school arc and the flaming catfish arc so early on?
Is the pacing botched to shit?
>>138382009
She is?
>>138382385
60 WN chapters per LN volume seems like a decent enough pace tho.
>>138382385
60~ chapters per volume, as it was in the first one too.
>>138382513
She is.
>>138382513
A ridiculously scary yandere.She kills and attempts to kill those who would harm her onii-sama from the shadows. Not even giving a shit if they are parent, royalty or a fucking god.Shiraori makes good use of her craziness tho
>>138381769
Author said he currently burn out with kumo and can't type his idea on it.
Also, he made some shitty battle royale story mean time called エスケープ・シープ・ランド
>>138382767
Isn't the author a she? Did they mention that on twitter or the WN upload site?
>>138382824
Well, I don't really check on author gender.
Just take a peek on her new blog post in syosetu
>>138380070
Magical girl Kumo--ko?
>>138382568
>>138382613
I figured it would take at least 3 volumes to reach the Lava stage. Huh, I guess it is because of how short the chapters are.
>>138383127
She wants to become a Maou Shoujo.
>>138381668
Found the faggot
Anime when?
>>138380014
Who's the guy in the back? Julius?
> she used to be a dude in her past life
>>138383413
Perfect girl.
>>138383413
Why is there a homosexual standing next to best girl?
>>138380014
>>138383413
>>138383671
How big are those tits?
>>138383310
>White scarf
Likely
>>138383413
Those are baby making hips
>>138380014
>Shun
Looks exactly like I pictured him. A complete faggot.
nothing new on WN. next chapters is probably about vampire girl visiting divine religion or some shit
>>138384369
Likely chance that with the novel being out now the author will get back to work.
>>138380010
Would you mind scanning your copy?
>>138384276
As expected of the Ruler of Kindness.
>>138380014
wait, how old are they supposed to be again in that picture?
>>138383310
The Kana say YULIUS, which is just derived pronunciation of Julius.
>>138384728
13 15
>>138384844
But since the world has over 400 ~50 days to a year at best it would be 16. Tops
>>138383738
I think the clothes make her look bigger than they actually are.
>>138385208
That's not how it works
>>138381580
There's more than two. Katia, Priestess girl, little sister, and the maid half-elf.
>>138385296
Ever seen baggy pants before?
>>138385359
Look at the other girls in the picture. Katia has serious tits with how her top is being pushed up like that.
>>138384728
About 13 by this world's standards, it would be around when they started school. >>138380272 would be 14-15. Then there was a year or so gap after Julius died where Shun went home and trained before everything went to hell.
>>138385437
Wow I quoted the wrong image post. >>138380251 That one would be 14-15 or so.
>>138380158
So am I to assume this is the student that reincarnated as a dragon?
>>138385707
I doubt it, we still never got that confirmed outside of unverified rumors. It's probably the drake that Shun tamed into his dragon summon.
>>138385707
Are you talking about the one whogot killed by the spider?
>>138380137
Looking at the "what they actually look like" silhouette in the back. Is there a chance we'll get to see true scary Kumo in v3 during the investigation team chapters where she massacres the guys and claims Ronant's heart?
>>138385303
>Priestess girl
Since when was she part of his harem?
New bookwalker ripper when?
>>138386188
Never.>>138385981
Since the start.
>>138386219
Time to switch to another store then, it's like they don't want any customers.
>>138386219
Why not?
>>138386415
Cause noone who knows how to make a ripper is doing shit.
>>138385303
Considering the pacing,when will the priestess and the maid appear in the light novel?
>>138386521
Vol 2 they should have appeared already since they are at school.
>>138386268
Why not use ebookjapan?
>>138386519
They do know. There was one for 1.2.3 and even before that.
And the one that worked for version 1.2.3 should theoretically still work since the bookwalker program still doesn't require an active internet connection, it's still completely offline once you get the book and the program itself decrypts the shit.
>>138386550
Are they minor characters?No illustrations of them yet.
>yet another trapped in an RPG story
What happened to real high fantasy? As soon as a character mentions guilds, classes, bosses or the author makes a point of talking about HP/MP/stats or any other obvious gamey element I just close the window.
Real high fantasy doesn't do that shit.
>>138386599
>trapped in an RPG
Except it isn't. It just look it.
>>138386553
I already switched to Rakuten.
I just simply preferred something that didn't want my credit card information like bookwalker.
Everything else wants it and a Japanese address since they don't like filthy gaijins.
>>138386599
Funny thing is this is actually high fantasy disguised as an RPG.
The very concept of the world looking like an RPG is the plot.
that thing doesn't get pushed under the rug like saying it has stats and it's an RPG well let's just continue with our lives like in other stories.
The main plot is why the world looks like a freaking RPG.
Plus the main appeal to this is our awesome female spider MC
>>138386645
Does it have digital releases?
>>138386743
Yes. And it uses Adobe's DRM which is widespread and can easily be removed.
Also, EBJ was blocked again yesterday/today. No fix yet, I think.
>>138385981
You didn't pay attention to the academy chapters very much, it mentioned that she hung onto Shun almost as much as little sister did.
>>138386632
What is this?
>>138380113
>>138380044
>>138380137
>>138386791
I can't wait for the day a truly unhackable system is created
>>138386581
Yeah minor in comparison to the other characters.
>>138386599
This is how you know someone hasn't read the story.
>>138386862
Japs just like to put stats in things.
>>138386889
Not possible since it needs to have local decryption.
If they make something like that online only, the majority of people won't bother buying anymore.
And even than it would be possible.
I'll keep hoping that EEE releases his ripper again. Until then, keeping a list of shit I will buy.
>>138386862
Bullshit obfuscating the truth.
>>138386856
Seriously? I guess I just forgot/didn't care so much about the crazy one.
>>138386902
>This is how you know someone hasn't read the story.
Well, he did say he closes the window at the first mention of game mechanics.
>>138386889
That would be the day hell freezes over and I castrate myself and eat my dick.
The idea of a contact will system is insanely preposterous. The very moment that it's capable of being access leaves is open for hacking. You can have a very strong encryption and protection but I can truly be unhackable.
As long as someone can still access it from the outside by using a regular authorized access it means it can be hacked.
>>138386967
I think it was mentioned in a Katia viewpoint where Katia was jealous of little sister and the priestess for being able to do that so easily when she couldn't.
>>138386862
Spoiler but the whole status system is actually bullshit.
Just think of a massive magical super computer connected everyone's souls and its controlling their magic while pretending that things like stats exist while setting limits on everyone
I only read a few chapters but is the mc romantically inclined to anyone? And how important are the other classmates?
>>138387164
The MC is a spider
You didn't read shit
>>138387164
No. Do you want to get spoiled to death?
I've read another story which probably has the best status system I've actually seen in awhile.
Everything is so detailed and accurate and it actually felt realistic.
And wow it was possible to level up it still took the time frame of years and they never truly left the realm of being human. The characters at this only got to Olympic level physical abilities or just at a level to be called superhumans at three to four times stronger than regular people
>>138387199
Just because she is a spider she can't love anyone?
Check your human privilege.
>>138387164
MC has a fancy for dandy middle aged guys, she has not found anyone yet that fits her preferences other than some guy that got killed though it hinted that she saved his soul.
The other classmates and other view points are important because they provide a lot of information that you don't get from the MC's side of the story while also providing clues to the truth of the world and stuff.
>>138387164
>is the mc romantically inclined to anyone?
She likes big, middle-aged bald men.
That said, she hasn't showed real interest in anyone yet.
>how important are the other classmates?
They play a role in the side-stories, and a couple of them show up later in the main story.
>>138387199
I read up to until it switched the point to another classmate who was some prince or something. Kind of felt like it's gonna be some romance in the future so I stopped reading.
>>138387320
Call those interludes. They're not that important until she reaches end-game, when the viewpoints switch back and forth.
>>138387320
You screwed up then.
>>138387320
That's Shun, he's the generic reincarnation story. Super OP with a harem of girls interested in him because he's kind. The MC has no romantic interest in him.His story pretty much exists to just hint at what's really going on while being utterly unimportant to the grand scheme of things.
>>138387320
He is the "other mc" because our MC perspective because main mc can't explain world view.
Also shun is a faggot.
And final warning is not to skip any of the "S" chapters at all. They are meant to be read in order according with the main story. They are not side stories at all and should not be skipped
>>138387435
I skipped those until I reached Blood. Read them in order.
>>138380942
Those are her eyes.
>>138387435
This
Follow this rule and your mind gonna blow up, skipper is pleb.
>>138387479
They are meant to be read in order recording with the main story. If you skip them then you missed some amazing foreshadowing and Wil be going back asking who what and when did that happen.
You will miss things like seeing their version of the truth, the human demon war, the foreshadowing for who did Demon Lord might be and that white girl
>>138387164
I wish she and vampire girl would be part of Shun's harem.
.
>>138387593
>not the great wizard harem
I read through the whole thing and to be honest, I lost some of the details near the end since the translation is pretty bad in my opinion.
>>138380882
That was the point when the series jumped the shark for me. Too fast, or rather, the pacing is so weird that I couldn't figure out if that was supposed to be the main story.
Does the LN fix the pacing issue?
>>138387593
Sophia already has a harem. She just has to get over her existential crisis.
>>138387593
You fucking heathen.>not the Oni's haremI mean, the Oni seems to understand her well enough, so why not?
>>138387593
You mean ronant's harem?
>>138387235
Well? What was it called?
>>138387663
Oni looks like a teenager, he's not in her tastes. Sophia just has to continue her domination of him and add Wrath to her harem.
>>138387411
>>138387435
>>138387374
Oh, I wasn't so interested in other classmates so it's good to know then.
>>138387661
>pacing issue
There was no pacing issue. Are you too stupid to realize that this was all part of the grand scheme of things?
Everything was well done especially when the grand reveal of her identity came
>>138387697
Title: 男なら一国一城の主を目指さなきゃね
Romaji: Otoko nara ikkokuichijō no aruji o mezasa nakya ne
Alternative Title: If you're a man then there's no other choice than aiming for King, right
Author: 三度笠
NCode: n9511bs
>>138387765
Shame her arachne period was too short and she became a god straight away. Kind of defeats the LN's title.
And that other reveal. Seems they can't let go of the hook.
>>138385208
That can be a reason in rl but this is anime logic here so it can be said that it is at least a B cup on a small framed girl.
>>138387698
Isnt she immortal she can wait until he grows a bit, the Oni seems like it will grow into her type later
>>138387854
Doesn't that series go to complete shit later though? I've read a lot of complaints about how stupid the MC and party act later.
>>138387726
But we're very serious when were telling you not to skip them.
>>138387910
Yeah I won't
>>138387903
That actually cleared up over time.
>>138387765
No I just misunderstood and focused mainly on reading the stats and her worship of a certain skill.Wasn't the first 100 chapters just focused on leveling and getting out of the dungeon? That's like a 3rd of the series.
And now since the author shot her wad about the reveal that she's lost all momentum to continue the story?
>>138387870
The arachne form is her true form. She's just disguised as a human all the time now.
>>138388323
My point still stands, though. She keeps using her two legged form. Also, she's quite different inside than out, which is kind of a missed opportunity for some interactions. Her words are simple, but her mind's all over the place. Her drunk form's great for that.
>>138388323
Pretty sure she can look however she wants at this point with any form she takes being "true".
But much like giving color to her threads, it's jut to troublesome.
>>138388399
That's true. Actually I wish she'd use her Arachne form more. I'm hoping that when shit starts going down she reverts back, and intimidates everyone as she shows them who's in control.
>>138388300
She didn't try to leave the dungeon until about chapter 150, which is like chapter 200 when you factor in other view points and interludes. The actual chapter count is just past 400 chapters.
>>138388542
Arachne form serves zero purpose for her. She can do everything she could do in her arachne form in her human form.
>>138388630
Yeah, but that's why I'm hoping she'll use it when she's battling. More limbs/eyes will mean more avenues of attack.
>>138388835
Except that serves no purpose for her. She doesn't have more eyes in her arachne form and extra limbs wouldn't do anything for her either.
>>138388630
This is the problem, I want more acrobatic web-slinging spider shenanigans but after godhood all she does is kill shit by looking at them.
I guess the action role has been given to vampire and oni, though. Seeing their fight animated would be pretty cool.
>>138386645
>>138386791
Where are the digital releases? I only find the one with shipment.
>>138389278
Amazon with moon ip.
New riku chapter out
>>138389278
The Kobo releases.
>>138389401
Only physical stuff is shown, care to share link?
>>138389377
Already know about this one.
>>138388630
she probably is more used to moving in her arachne form and she's only using her human form to avoid attracting attention as she needs to freeload off humanoids
>>138389534
Why would she be more used to her arachne form when she only spent like a year as a spider in comparison to her human memories.
>>138389495
Simply select the one you want and you should see a kobo link on the right site.
Here's Kumo for example:
http://books.rakuten.co.jp/rb/13493801/
>>138389495
>>138389585
And there's also this:
http://books.rakuten.co.jp/e-book/
>>138389585
Ah ok, i was thinking global rakuten(first thing that came out of google) was the website you were talking about. Thanks.
>>138389534
She only spent like a week or two as an Arachne, why the hell would she be used to that in comparison to all those years of fake human memories. Look I understand you want her to be an arachne more but it serves no purpose for her to use that form, there's no advantages at all for her.
>>138389577
Even if that statement was correct, she did not spend any of her human life fighting.
>>138389709
And her fighting style doesn't revolve around a spider body. She's a caster type.
>>138389577
because she is a spider and what this anon >>138389709 said
>>138389781
She's not a spider anymore, she's a God that used to be a spider with memories of being human. Her fighting style does not rely at all on having a spider body, she teleports around and uses her extremely overpowered eyes to handle everything. A spider body does nothing for her.
>>138389654
she never fought for real, not even once, after becoming a goddess.
I expect her to use her arachne form against kuro in the final showdown because she will need to fight at the best of her capabilities
>>138389862
are we reading the same series? her strongest point has always been her mobility.
>>138389864
You guys aren't answering at fucking all. What does a fucking arachne body do for her that she can't already do in her human body? The only difference is limbs but her fighting style has never relied on her spider limbs for anything other than movement and she doesn't need them for that anymore with her mastery of space magic.
>>138389970
What does a large spider body get her in mobility when her mastery of space magic lets her flit around as easily as she pleases?
>>138390001
Also she can move just as fast in her human body as she could in her spider body so what's the point of bringing up movement at all.
>>138389975
>The only difference is limbs but her fighting style has never relied on her spider limbs for anything other than movement
you just replied to yourself. Other than that, an arachne has two brains, meaning that she can survive even if her human head is blown up.
>>138390081
That's a dumb thing to bring up when she has millions of clones she can swap to.
>>138390033
>citation needed
>>138389380
Rook is breaking so great, it's nice. Also wow, game Rook had two older sister love interests.
>>138390225
She now has free control over the magic in her body, rather than the system allocating her soul's power arbitrarily. If she wanted to, she could be many times faster than she was before.
>>138390413
mobility has nothing to do with magic or the system.
she is a spider, has always fought her battles as a spider, she even reverted back to her spider form the only time she had time to relax without worrying about people around her (when she made the cocoon after saving sophia).
btw I'm still waiting for that citation
>>138390689
You mean when she went to sleep in a cocoon she reverted back to having spider legs. That's not really anything anon, it just means the spider legs worked better for being in a cocoon. Spider body doesn't do anything for her fighting style, you keep ignoring this very important fact.
>>138390689
>>138390787
she hasn't actually fought once since ascending to godhood so can we please not have this conversation
>>138390787
Spider body has better equilibrium for fast movements and she can even attack physically with the two front legs and her arms.
>>138390831
wait I take it back she killed the hero
>>138390838
then why wasn't she in sppider form when she killed the hero
>>138390881
>hero
>requiring her to be serious
She oneshotted him without even using her full power .
>>138390787
>Spider body doesn't do anything for her fighting style, you keep ignoring this very important fact.
>fact
because that's not a fact, but just your opinion
>>138390881
maybe because she didn't want to blow her cover? or because it wasn't even a fight but a one sided execution?
>>138390917
well she hasn't used her full power yet so this discussion is pretty moot ok
>>138390831
I'll admit she's never gone all out since she's reached godhood because she hasn't needed too but her power development since godhood has revolved around developing her 10 eye powers of which we still don't know all of them yet and her space magic/dimension magic which is at bullshit tier even beyond Kuro's level because of her being D's offshoot.
>>138390962
>her space magic/dimension magic which is at bullshit tier even beyond Kuro's level because of her being D's offshoot.
yeah , so beyond kuro's level that she managed to break through her space-time trap earlier than anticipated
>>138390942
Ok please think very hard about Shiro's fighting style. How many times in a serious fight did she ever use physical attacks. She always relied on poison, strings and trickery, and then later with magic added in as well. Physical stuff was only when she was desperate and out of options.
>>138391045
That's only because she underestimated Kuro's actual power level, nothing to do with space magic specifically.
>>138384276
There's nothing wrong with Shun. He is doing his best to protect his friends and family and isn't an edgelord.
Wrath... Wrath lived a tough life.
>>138387164
Once Shun grows up a little more I see Shiro falling for him, she will help him see the big picture, and he will teach her to have some compassion.
>>138391147
There is something wrong with him. His personality is being usurped by kindness. Why do you think he didn't want to kill the man who mindbroke and raped his sister?
>>138380044
Agnaktor?
>>138391057
she always used her agility as her main means to avoid getting one-shotted. space magic was mostly reserved to avoid wide attacks like dragon breaths and to create openings (or to run away from fights).
>That's only because she underestimated Kuro's actual power level
to be honest I know what you are trying to say (you are probably referring to what D said about shiro's space magic in that interview chapter) but that episode proved imo that she's not yet good enough at it to use space magic as a trump card against kuro
>>138391314
He never raped her speedreader she was under the orders of Shiro, as was spider puppet mk1.
>>138391314
>mindbroke and raped his sister
His sister is the puppet master, her virginity is for her oniisama of course.
>>138391425
Her body still has all its agility, if anything she has even more now plus her space magic is much more advanced and powerful meaning she can use it for much more than avoiding big attacks since she can do it as easily as breathing.
So.... What have you guys been reading lately?
>>138391878
Only Sense, and my god, this guy's a fag.
>>138391915
Dropped. Too much gay.Cant stand all the shipping.
>>138391878
I'm catching up on Kuro no Maou now that the translator is back. And yes he still does not know how to use the words (the) and (an).
>>138391878
I plan to start some Kamachi novels when I finish the remaining chapters of Kumo. After that I might just go read some haremshit or something.
>>138392371
Try Sekai Owari no encore.
>>138392588
I'm really happy that codezero finally got back to working on that.
>>138392689
Still looking for the drama cd , do not want to buy phys version and there is nothing on the net.
>>138391878
I picked up the Girl Who Ate Death because of the name and it's surprisingly good. Schera is pretty cute. Her subordinates getting used to offering her food whenever she starts getting upset is amusing too.

>and her space magic/dimension magic which is at bullshit tier even beyond Kuro's level
Not quite. She managed to trap him, but she used a magic item of D's in order to alter the perception of time.
She's close enough in power to be a hindrance to Kuro, but I'm pretty sure that's about it.
>>138391283
>I see Shiro falling for him
Please no.
>>138391435
>>138391519
It's not like Shun knew that. He had the Lust skill, of all things, so it's only natural to at least assume he had raped her. On top of that, they were set to marry each other in the future.
And Shun spared him.
>>138392904
Soul corrupted by his ruler skill.
>>138392904
>>138393155
Yeah Shun doesn't have a guardian spider kicking his ass into gear and teaching him the wonders of heresy nullity through a cutesy written book.
>>138393155
>>138393292
Still a faggot.
>>138393345
Well yeah, it was already mentioned even before he got Kindness during the hero training time skip that Shun was a naive, too kind for his own good faggot. He probably would have gotten fucked up if he didn't have Katia, Sue and Oka in the background doing shit.
>>138393631
Edgy shit.And sword NTR.
>>138393746
It's really not edgy and a sword is an object, it doesn't get a choice whether it gets wrapped up in NTR or not.
And the protagonist doesn't drop his spaghetti everywhere when he talks to a girl. That's already better than most protagonists, not to mention he's an adult that acts like an (somewhat depressed) adult.
>>138394096
>choice
That shitty sword chose go stay with faggot hero.
>>138394258
A choice means the sword had options.
The god said right at the start that no matter what the MC does, he can't get it back.
That's why he said fuck everything and decided to live on a snowy mountain with a boss monster snow leopard, which in my opinion is way better than a shitty sword.
Besides, that sword is going to get the faggot hero killed eventually and I'm looking forward to that a lot.
>>138380014
I thought the imouto was suppose to be blonde
>>138392904
Why don't you reread the story, speedreader.
Imouto is always safe because Shiro inserted her own mini spider into the Lust faggot's brain so he's not really in complete control of his body at all.
>>138395720
Yes and yet, Shun didn't knew that so he must had assumed that he did shit with his sister.
>>138395720

>It's not like Shun knew that. He had the Lust skill, of all things, so it's only natural to at least assume he had raped her.
Are you actually retarded? You think Kumo, who had full control of both mr. lust and the sister, had him rape the imouto?
>>138395720
All Shun knew was that appraising his sister showed she had Charmed and Brainwashed status and that he saw her kill their father. He also was told that Yuugo was the source of these effects. Of course he doesn't know that Shiro was the true mastermind behind everything as she got rid of people with Potimas soul fragments.
>>138396067
Not those anons but try reading.
Shun does not know that, only we readers do know that she hasnt been raped.
>>138396067
We're talking about Shun you idiot. Shun doesn't know any of that. All he knows is that Yuugo had a charming and brainwashing power and that his sister, Katia and Yurin were all captured and used by Yuugo.
We as readers know it's very unlikely anything actually happened to them, though Katia did mention that she lost something important to Yuugo, but Shun isn't one of us with access to all the behind the scenes knowledge.
>>138396067
Anon.
Are you properly reading my post?
Ok Anon. I'm going to spoonfeed you here.
Shun—the "other MC" with the Virtue Skill, "Kindness"—Had no way of knowing that Shiraori was controlling Yuugo.
HOWEVER, he did know Yuugo had the Lust, and that they announced a marriage between him and Sue (the little sister)
Shun had every reason to believe that Yuugo had already raped his little sister.

I think it has something to do with being taught how to kill all his life and the previous society said killing is wrong, so right now, he is in a world where he can finally release his blood lust. Wish it would have incorporated on that idea throughout the novel in a monologue or something.

That's not technically true, she always depends on her bullshit triple combo that allowing her to feel time slower, predict the enemy attacks and think faster to avoid attacks, speed was only a means to an end. She always depended on poison, webs and support skills, and the magic skills, never in physical stats.

That's not how it works.
She attacks with power that's a lot higher than the system itself therefore the system can't block it.
Her set default is at a minimum hundred thousand. Which is higher than the system default maximum of 99999.
She said she was able to get past the resistance because she was able to just outright overpower the defense of the system.

Honestly, It impresses me just how much Okina wrote. The series up until now is roughly 8 LNs worth of content which she posted within 8 months (and free via WN). Normally, writers only go through 3 LNs per year in a series at most.

Has it been spelled out that the victims had Potimas soul fragments? I've been wondering if Shiro plan was to kill people close to Shun so he'd resurrect them with Kindness, and so drive his Taboo to 10.
>>138391878

>Has it been spelled out that the victims had Potimas soul fragments?
Well, we know most of the higher nobles had soul fragments, so it's very likely possible.

It was already explained that the Ruler skills corrupted the soul. Shun, being Ruler of Charity, was most likely incapable of NOT sparing somebody.

>>138408506
It was stated that most of the higher ups if not all of them in Shun's kingdom were already under Potimas' control through his freaky soul fragment inserting method.
Honestly I wonder what ability lets him fragment his soul so much, it seems a bit OP even for a Ruler granted ability. I love how pissed he was when he realized the fragment in Oka was gone and that Shiro had put up protection from letting him put in a new one.

>OP protagonist gets a harem story
Hey, I've written at least two stories without a harem that got plenty of feedback on RRL.
Granted, the protagonists were reasonably strong for their setting, and the one I wrote with an intentionally god-like MC that built up a harem ended up getting much more attention though.
Sometimes my audience makes me irk away, when I make my character do something that's intentionally morally wrong, but everyone seems to agree they did the right thing.
That said, >>138409705 could just write it on a paste, and link it here.
>>138409873
And I'm going to be THAT fag but I would've loved had they stayed two separate stories. Sensei is annoying as fuck, the rest of the human characters are really so damn plain I ended up skipping all that shit and when I found out the two stories were going to connect I simply dropped it. It makes it all the worst considering they basically "spoiled" the spider's last form.
>>138409705
I have around three ideas I could probably make into WNs, but I'll never have the balls to actually write and post any of them.
>>138410052
What a guy. I love having an actual romance go somewhere in these stories.
Do you have a link to his new chapters? I'm still reading stuff using the way back machine.
>>138410208
>It makes it all the worst considering they basically "spoiled" the spider's last form.
Not really. Most readers didn't make the connection to Shiro until Kumoko got her Arachne form, at which point it was no longer a spoiler.
>>138410273
It was brilliant foreshadowing. I thought that Ariel was Kumoko in the future when those chapters were released.
>>138410273
Plus it's not like Shiro made it any secret that her plan was to eventually evolve toward a humanoid form.
>>138409705
I'm writing a story about a mad scientist that got killed by a secret agent and then getting reincarnated into a haughty ojou-sama that likes to experiment with magic rather than science.
But it's one thing reading a story about a mary sue, it's another thing writing it (get bored easily).
>>138410273
I don't know, the "Demon King" stuff, the ability with the same name and the supposedly manipulative thread. I may be only me, but introducing all of the ones working under her out of the blue left me confused more than anything else. Would've loved had it been a different Demon King which the spider went against.
>>138410308
Well yeah especially since right before we first meet the Demon King, Kumoko had a line like, back then I didn't really understand what being the Demon King meant. It was definitely intentional to make us think that was her future self.
>>138410273
I got the connection when Julius died
At first I thought she was the maou but after they revealed she had insta-death eyes it seemed obvious.

That was Ariel and not Kumoko, anon.

Wait who the fuck was Ariel, the teacher? Also I think the translator said that that was Kumoko or some shit.
>>138410386
>At first I thought she was the maou but after they revealed she had insta-death eyes it seemed obvious.
How so? Kumoko didn't get actually damaging magical eyes until long after the chapter with Juilius' death.
>>138410424
Ariel is the Demon King.
>>138410331
I suck at writing and get held up on a lot of details which makes me write and rewrite stuff. Like for fun I'm trying to write a story about two people that get reincarnated but they don't keep their memories so it's going to be a pretty standard fantasy story in the end.
Anyway though, I want to set up some character quirks so that when the main character eventually comes across the other person they reincarnated with that a reader might be able to pick up the clues to their identity but that's where I run into issues. Like I want to choose subtle enough clues to throw off a reader so trying to think of something kind of common but yet that stands out too.
>>138410424
Ariel is the Demon King and is not a reincarnator. The teacher is the elf girl at Shun's school. Kumoko was Shiro, the white girl by Ariel's side.
>>138410424
that why you shouldn't skipping any chapter
>>138410454
Ah shit then I might actually pick it up just to see if Kumoko actually makes the side story a bit more entertaining because damn->>138410480 Wait shit never mind.

If the side story wasn't complete trash, then I wouldn't.

What do you think Riku's original route look like? My money on healing.
>>138410437

>>138410394
Thanks man. I guess I'm fucked for now.
>>138410437
then I guess I learned it after she got the magic eyes
all I remember was that it was easy to link the eyes of extinction to Julius's death
>>138410503
Her route wasn't even part of the game, the game started with her already conquered because her brother Rook saved her from being exiled as a child.
>>138410386
Ariel ended up calling Shiro her "greatest masterpiece" or something like that during the "Human-Demon Great War " chapter, so I had assumed that Kumoko had children at some point, and Shiro was one.
The idea was sort of reinforced when Kumo actually did have children.
>>138410331

Similar problem here.

Have someone (at least semi) competent look over your work and give feedback. Maybe you're looking at something from the wrong angle, and another view can help wiggle you out?
>>138410598

I just want to hurry up and see what Maou-shoujo Ariel-chan looks like. I hope she gets lots of fan art.
>>138410610
No. It's just sitting on my computer.
I styled it in the same way that WNs and LNs tend to be written (undescriptive, lots of character thoughts) but my main problem is that I had no overarching plot to speak of (since I was making it up as I went along), the levelling system I made was too autistic and broken and the characters would all be 90 years old before becoming powerful (it was an MC gets reincarnated in a game world) and I made the MC's mentor too stong meaning the MC would never really get the chance to fight epic battles.
>>138410684
That's why the strong mentor has to be killed.
>>138410684
>I made was too autistic and broken and the characters would all be 90 years old before becoming powerful
all Xianxia series are like that that's why they give the MC a plot device that cuts that time down to a few years.
Americans uses Montague
Japs uses timeskips
Chinese uses magical plot device
Oh another Riku chapter, that general demon guy Riku was working under put his granddaughter in Riku's squad, the one that Riku delivered the presents to back then.
Another update of Katahane no Riku. Rook is in command in next battle. Gorba something is letting Riku have initiative. Also in these past chapters. I felt that Rook has increasingly looked like this to me in last chapter..
>>138380010
From reading the description of this on Baka-updates I'm guessing its about the ugly girl being reincarnated as a weak spider while the cool kids who picked on her became handsome powerful people? She then goes on to become OP and the cool kids are evil?

>>138410784
MC is 16 years old and only level 3.
By comparison, her 356 year old Alchemist lich mentor is level 38. And that nigger can 1 shot the "Hero" (another reincarnator who is essentially max level).
I don't really like the idea of cheating the system to make my characters stronger so it would take forever to reach a high level. But like I said, the levelling system is pretty fucked.

Enlighten me, anon. Does Aya has a romantic feeling for Renji? Or is it just admiration?
I kinda think it's the formeer, but since the chapter where it's explicitly said that Aya has a thing for Souichi, I begin to think it's the latter.
>>138410914
I thought she had less rounded ears than stereotypical elves too.
>>138410908
Well we know there's still that one other spiritualist girl Celia? and his other older sister. If I was the game maker, that oracle girl Shibira would probably be a harem member, I'd also assume there would be one or two other demon girls other than Charlotte and Kurumi. So probably originally there was 10 total heroines? That's a nice round number.
>>138410957
Pointed ears I mean. She should have more rounded ears.
>>138410884
series make the MC cheat the system not just to make the MC a snowflake.
It's mostly a pacing thing to not waste anyone's time.
>>138410959
There's probably a secret member or a joke member too. With such a large harem, I could see the devs throwing in some hard to unlock members.
>>138411008
Wouldn't the joke member be Riku herself considering how irrelevant she was?
>>138410975
I guess, but my MC has always been part of the system. She's not a hero or anything (every one of her skills has been earned legitimately). Maybe I should just continue making the it as a comfy story instead of ruining it by trying to add some massive plot.
>>138410908
Riku will probably kill off all the harem girls by the end of this

I made the connection of Shiro = Kumoko when she use her eyes to defeat the hero or when she was eating something, I don't remember what was first.
>>138411452
It's right there on the cover anon. Open your eyes.
>>138410273
This was all very debateable. I wasn't sure that Shiro was Kumoko until it was revealed. The line the maou says about her being a puppet made me think that she's kumoko and Shiro was something like a spare body made of thread with a parallel will inside.
>>138411540
I thought she was the demon lord at first since it was mentioned she was a spider as well
>>138411580
Let me say this better. I meant masterpiece instead of puppet. I believed the Maou was Kumoko and Shiro was just a puppet that had a piece of her will.
Shiro's plan to eliminate the Hero from the system obviously failed since the title transferred to Jun. Why? My theory is Blow confessed to Shiro before attacking Julius, Shiro panicked while Blow lost and then she just killed Julius rather than eliminating him.
Hikki is her only weakness, so it has to be involved somehow.
>>138411580
I thought Kumoko was Shiraori from the beginning.
>>138411703
I suspected they were related, but I couldn't be sure she was actually Shiro until it was revealed.
On that note, just three more raw chapters left. Hope the author gets outta their slump soon.
>>138411700
Shun not Jun.
>>138411766
>Hope the author gets outta their slump soon.
Have they explicitly stated that they're in a slump or is this just conjecture? I thought they were just busy with LN stuff.
>>138411032
Make the MC a spectator and concentrate in SoL, make the mentor move the plot of the world. If you don't want that you can make the soul or something of the mentor unite with the MC.
>>138411803
I think the she said it in her latest blog post. She's also working on a new series too.
>>138410959
If the game is anything like Kamidori then we will see much more.
Sheep is going all out with pumping out Tilea chapters.
>>138411815
Perhaps. Her mentor is a semi-famous alchemist, so that could be a reason to advance the plot.
>>138410529
And look how that turned out.
>>138392830

And a couple other things I'm waiting on updates for.
I read a series about a guy using a hacking system to play a game. Then some basic reincarnation nonsense happen. But fun interesting part was that it wasn't the guy that reincarnated it was the hacking software that reincarnated.
Now this cold brutal calculating piece of software is out to take over the world (loli of corse)
Been reading this lately, whole class, including, MC, reincarnated into monsters. MC turned into a skellington.
>>138413718
The MC in that has a lot of traits /a/ generally hates.
Namely he has no individuality and is dense as a black star.
Anyone read その無限の先へ - 小説家になろう?
How is it?
>>138410394
>you're probably kinda fucked until author works out his shit with ncode
The best part is he got banned over the stupidest shit.
Granted he did said stupid shit again after getting warned for it once before.
>>138410801
Isn't there a LN planned by Alphapolis ?
Better save chapters before upcoming digest.
>>138412295
>Kasha a cute.
You meana dead.
>>138413787
I'm interested too, for what it counts.
Namely in the 'there's a fake trap' tag it has. I fail to understand what this means.
Why did she have to grow up?
>>138413929
Reverse trap, I guess.
Or was that different to "girl that looks like a guy that looks like a girl"?
>>138413933
I actually find it interesting when a series actually has the lolis grow up.
You see all these series where a loli character is introduced, but they never grow up because the story always has a too condensed of a time frame for that to happen.
The main exception is in reincarnation series where the protagonist gets a childhood friend or something, but otherwise you don't really find any loli-raising simulators.
I want more loli-raising simulators.
And then you have you eternal lolis.
>>138414008
You fucking disgust me.
Lolis should never grow, under any circumstances.
This is why I'm never going to read Shildbro.
>>138414075
I mean, there are other reasons not to read that.
>>138413929
>>138413967
Does the mc have harem in this?
>>138413877
Seriously?
>>138413877
Goddamit.
>>138413967
Reverse trap is someone you think is a boy is actually a girl.
A trap is someone you think is a girl but is actually a boy.
For a trap to be fake, that means it's a girl that looks like a girl, right?
Or is the person in question like a girly girl that keeps claiming to be a guy when she obviously isn't or something?
I'm so confused.
>>138414075
There are many legit reasons to not read Shield Hero and yours isn't the one.
>>138414095
Well, it doesn't have the harem tag, which actually means nothing now that I think about it, so maybe?
>>138414124
Well.Yes. Origa is the one who kills her even.
>>138413933
What's this?
>>138413784
Really? He's kinda OK for an MC though. I wanna se the triple docking.
>>138414196
True yan.
>>138414146
No, a fake trap has gotta be like Haganai's Yukimura, right?
A girl that looks like a guy that looks like a girl.
A reverse reverse trap. Or something.
There's gotta be a term for it already, right?
>>138414196
Picked back up. Does she stay dead?
>>138414215
>A girl that looks like a guy that looks like a girl.
Yukimura looks like a girl, though. She falls under the 'girly girl that claims to be a guy when she obviously isn't' thing.
Saying a girl looks like a guy and a girl is just calling them androgynous. Yukimura, as far as I know, can't physically pass off as looking like a guy for shit.
>>138414251
You better believe she does.
She's so good at staying dead that no one else can beat her at it even.
>>138414276
Is it in translated chapters?
>>138414292
Are the chapters translated to around42yet?
If not, no. I don't actually follow the translation.
>>138383213
Found the shiteater
>>138414312
We're at 34 right now so 8 chapters before Origa does what I expected her to do.
>>138410914
>>138410957
>>138410969
It's actually noted in the story that dark elves were different in that world.
>Her lilac colored skin was crystal smooth; her long hair white as snow. Her pointed ears complemented her sharp eyes, which glowed with a strange gold in the darkening forest. Compared to the elf I had previously seen, her ears were also shorter.
>So, she’s apparently a dark elf, huh… Her features do differ considerably from that of an elf. Although, in the game, dark elves had long ears instead, along with red eyes and dark brown skin; their features in this world seemed to be quite different.
So yeah, pointed ears and pale skin are correct.
Catching up on Kumo.
>Good girls should not say words like “shit”! Thus, a chop to the head. Maybe I heard her skull cracking or felt her neck breaking, but well, don’t mind it.
Wonderful.
Anyone read this? it's a WN about 30 years old MC deal with Ayys.
>>138416857

More race traitoring?
>>138416911
They are peaceful Ayys don't worry.
>>138416857
So what's mc role in this?
If kumo LNs are scanned,would someone translate it?
>>138417491
Looks like he's a diplomat.
>>138417532
>translating LN when there's a WN version being translated
It rarely happens.
>>138413817
>The best part is he got banned over the stupidest shit.
What did he do?
>>138419966
He wrote a parody song as a reply to a parody song in the comment section.
So the mods banned him.
>>138419966
Included lyrics of a copyrighted song or something along those lines.
>>138420078
>>138420079
Wait. THAT was what he got banned for? What the fuck? It almost makes me think that it was a backroom deal to remove his previous chapters on ncode for the LN without fans calling him out for it.
>>138420314
It'd be believable if he didn't move to Pixiv.
Pixiv novels are generally about the same quality as Deviant Art novels.
>>138419462
It did happen with Death March.
>>138420479
Someone's TL'ing the DM LN? Link please.
Was Tanaka the Wizard dropped by the translator?
>>138420410
Yeah, but he hasn't posted the previous chapters yet so it's impossible to access them without an web archive.

How's the story?

Latest news declares it basically dead.
Well, at least one volume is complete.
>>138420626
>>138420628
Thanks. Bookmarking both.
>>138420942
Seems like he didn't know where to find the actual LN and was just fixing up what was already translated by the other guy. I'm not too sure as his writing is questionable.
>all previous chapters will be updated with better spelling, and grammars
>>138399110
Doing it right now. I'll start post after I've done at least half pages.

Comment from reader
>Seeing the character design, I screamed from my heart "Cutting short her beautiful hair just like that...!" She'll grow it long again, right?
Author's reply to comment
>"When your hair~ Has grown to your waist~ Like it was before~ As promised~ At Palnam Castle~ Let's marry~" A parody song like this came up in my head. She might grow it long again in time.
Original
>When my hair~ Has grown to my shoulders~ Like yours~ At the promised place~ The city's church~ Let's marry~
Jesus, are Narou's moderators retarded?
Where do they find the time to nitpick about the reply to a single comment out of thousands
>>138380014
>Katia
GodDAMN
>>138380014
Where is crazy priest?
>>138416289
Lilac colored is purple anon. Not pale.
>>138422183
It's hilarious because the Narou mods won't get on anyone's ass about just blanking the words, but replacing them is a big no no.
>>138422296
Actually, it depends on the shade of lilac. The lighter shades might barely justify her skin color.
>>138380014
Sensei look way too young, I thought she would be like Katia age's, plus didn't they said she has short hair?
>>138422183
Wait, really? That was fucking it? I thought there had to be at least some in novel plagiarism or something. Did he at least get a warning about that type of shit?
Also, I guess the chances of him putting it back up on Narou are gone after they pulled that kind of stupid shit aren't they?
>>138421669
He was translating from Chinese translations. Problem with that, is what happens if the chinks haven't translated something?
>>138380014
Guessing the smug elf is Teach?
>>138422489
>Did he at least get a warning about that type of shit?
He did it once before on his update page or in the story itself (he mentioned the comment song was the first time) and got a warning.
So it's technically a second offense.
>>138422296
>>138422410
Looking at >>138411067 her coloring is different from the humans, though I agree she could be a shade darker.
>>138380251
So the LN Vol 2 ends without artwork of shiro? I assumed they would show at least a picture of that one conference before that big sized battle.
>>138422647
>at least a picture of that one conference
Nah, that would ruin the reveal that "humans and demons look exactly the same"
>>138422593
That is hardly different and can be simply for the lighting
>>138422726
The same tone is used in >>138410889 where we again have some humans for comparison.
>>138422183
Is fair use not a thing in Japan?
>No profit to be made
>No effect on the song's value
>Two lines from the lyrics of a song
>>138420479
>>138419462
And the loli summoner one
>>138422726
Nah, it's definitely different. It's disappointingly too subtle to even acknowledge, but it's there.
>>138422862
The Slime reincarnation story had a partial translation before they stopped.
I guess people are less interested in alternative versions of the same story.
>>138423015
Most of the time the LN versions are better fleshed out. There are exceptions to that, of course, like the Vermillion LN.
>>138422797
Music industry seems to be fucked worldwide.
>>138423059
Yeah, but the Web Novel is easier to translate because you can put it through a machine translation. (I mean, you can use OCR software to get text versions of the LN, but don't let machine translators know that)
As such, it usually gets faster updates.
I remember the WN translator expressed interest in translating the LN, but said that "maybe" he would do it after catching up with the WN.
The Web Novel by design simply has more content.
>>138423159
>I mean, you can use OCR software to get text versions of the LN, but don't let machine translators know that
Even if they knew that, most OCR software can be unreliable in some cases. They would end up with wrong Kanji in the analyzed text and fuck the translation up anyway.
But damn, why do people accept MTL so easily? And what's more, done by people who know jackshit about Japanese AND English.
>>138423015
Remember something about Slime Tensei author saying he didn't mind people translating the WN version but to leave out the LN or something like that.
>>138423253
>But damn, why do people accept MTL so easily?
High demand for series + Low supply of translators = Market for MTL for people to get their fix
It's the same with eromanga and doujins
>>138423253
My bet is because real translators nowadays are quite few,and they mostly work on light novels.
Most MTLs do it to cater to the masses of leechers who care less about the quality of the translations as long as it's readable.
MTL sites like Rebirth Online World take donations and sponsored chapters even though most of their stuff are google translated.Infinite Novel Translations is also another MTL who charge 80 EUR for a hachinan chapter,though most his are carefully proofread

Yeah, you're right. There was confusion with translation in that thread, and I didn't checked close enough. But now that I look at kanji...
