Hey, what the hell happened to these threads? Did everyone just suddenly stop reading Horizon/Hexennacht/City series or did people just get tired of making threads?
Or did everyone just kill themselves due to S3 never?

Hexennacht gets more and more meta every chapter. I love it.
>>
>>139024161
Yeah, the rate's slowed down quite a bit. There was an unlabeled thread a while ago, but we should have more!

Not that there's that much to talk about. Latest chapters have been pretty good, but there's not much that's shocking.

I kinda miss the days right when OnC was wrapping up. It was just one crazy ride after another -- was anyone else here for the Top Gear vs. Low Gear trial? That was nuts, and a fun thread.

For some reason this just keeps happening! I know it's part of her character arc, but since she's a battle-obsessed maniac it's frustrating that all her development has to come through choking.

I probably was, but I hadn't read Owari yet back then and ignored the Owari related posts. So I guess technically I wasn't there even if I was there.

We've got super deformed animals, too. Maybe repeated song if Hunter's use of the Star Spangled Banner counts.

But yeah, we're hitting most of the classic Kawakami tropes just one and a half volumes in.

Seeing stuff like this reminds me that all of the other factions in Horizon are fun and interesting as well.

If anything, I think that's one of the rare things I didn't like about OnC -- the Top Gear faction wasn't really likeable or interesting, and they seemed to exist solely as foils for Team Leviathan.
>>
>>139037344
I'm curious about this too. I'd guess that there's some boring historical reason (some precedent got set and then they never changed it), but maybe there's a real reason for this!
>>
>>139038853
Horizon is nothing but groups of really cool and nice people clashing because of circumstances.
>>
>>139038886
It doesn't seem to be a rule though, since Index for example has 1 or 2 days off releases, but Kawakami has never missed it.

>>139038853
Top Gear felt like they could have had their moments if they weren't just preparing for the final battle every time we got a look at them.
>>
>>139038901
And it works!

Sure, it's less clear who to really root for since there's no one to hate, but painting one side as totally good and one side as totally evil is such an overused story device that I'm glad someone is writing something different.

>>139039023
Huh. Maybe it's just an informal target or something. Kawakami might really just be the god of deadline management. I would totally believe that he is the one guy (or automaton) that doesn't know what procrastination is and never worries about being late.

>>139039023
This. Silly adventures (e.g. Alex trying to be a super sentai hero) would have done a lot.

Explain it to me like I'm retarded, why isn't Noriki considered the best fighter on the Musashi instead of Futayo who has a bad record for jobbing and breaking her weapon
>>
>>139042372
Hes not a fighter hes a laborer
>>
>>139042372
Maybe because Futayo has credentials?
A well known name, father, and weapon?
>>
>>139042372
Not very versatile, probably won't do very well against a fast/strong opponent with a good weapon.
>>
>>139042372
He needs 3 hits in to win sure, but he uses no weapons or acceleration spells and isn't that far off from a normal person as far as fighting skill. Galileo was practically the perfect person for him to fight since Galileo had no physical fighting prowess and relied on his two spells only. A real opponent with a weapon that has a ranged ability or actual close combat fighting experience is beyond him for now.
>>
>>139042372
>>139043127
In addition while Futayo has lost lots of times she is still at a fighting level above him and her losses have been against opponents Noriki wouldn't have been able to handle either.

I swear, I need to go back , and reread chapters before.
Pictured: my favorite part of the Horizon so far.
>>
>>139043955
When did you stop reading? As soon as 3C ended?
>>
>>139042372
Noriki also doesn't really fight that well, that's why he is called clumsy fighter. Basically he can only win because of his skill.
>>
>>139044025
Yeah, I decided to wait , since , at the time , only few chapters were translated.
I usually just binge read LNs.
Plus I decided to savor the feeling of the excellent scene.
>>
>>139044283
Well everyone being added in 4 is new to the series so rereading won't help you sort out who they are.
>>
>>139044361
Well yeah, all those names ,
I guess I will need just to read real hard , and draw some charts, since I have minimal knowledge of Jap History
>>
>>139044551
Or you could watch/read Sengoku period anime and manga
>>
>>139042372
It's the difference in who they fight, basically. Futayo fights people who are mostly Vice-Chancellor level, and she's very inexperienced for a Vice-Chancellor, so she does fairly well all things considered.

Noriki's exceptional since he's pretty much at the level of a special duty officer despite being a regular student, but he's not that strong in general. Try imagining him fighting someone like Shibata -- it wouldn't end well.
>>
>>139044842
This. Horizon really leans on you having some basic familiarity with Japanese and European history. For those of us in the West, we'll at least have heard of things like the Protestant Reformation and the Thirty Years War, or people like Louis XIV and Elizabeth I, but not much about Japanese history.

And since the Musashi represents Matsudaira (later Tokugawa) only, it's pretty hard to get the significance of events without knowing Japanese history. Imagine if Horizon was recreating American history -- if the characters were about to recreate the Battle of Gettysburg, Americans would know why that mattered instantly. But when the Battle of Sekigahara gets mentioned, we've got to run to Wikipedia for context.
>>
Since Toori's class is pretty much governing body of Academy and crème de la crème. There they all sorted into it based on ability?
For example, neighbouring class has no prominent students.
>>
>>139042372
I'm looking forward to his new spell in a couple volumes.
>>
>>139042031
You're thinking about this the wrong way. The question isn't why a character is a pervert; it's why there are any characters that aren't perverts.
>>
>>139046099
Pretty much. It's not a coincidence that all the major characters are in 3-Plum or are underclassmen.

>>139042277
Lewd osmosis sounds like it might actually happen...
>>
>>139046291
Nah , I think they just decided to make 3-plum an asylum, to keep all crazies in one cell.
>>
>>139046043
Now I want to see a cute loli get the inherited name Abe Lincoln.
>>
>>139046560
A good thing then, since it's crazy people that decide the fate of the world.
