Volume 7 is out in one hour, are you /a/nons ready for more Shadow?
Is someone doing early TL's?
>>287138698Hopefully, I stole this image from the community discord so don't ask me for story leaks
>>287138698>still hasn't learned Japanese
>>287138692So guy is Cid yet again?
>>287138741I'll remain a dekinai till the day I die, I'm afraid.
>>287138692>Nazono SenenClearly Elf Cid since it's his low effort naming "Mystery Mann"
>>287138769Yes, at this point I'm honestly hoping for a crossdressing arc since slimehax is bullshit and I want to see Cid fighting Shadow Garden again
>>287138803I think there was art of Beta(Male) and Epsilon(Male)
>>287138820Epsilon is hotter this way, goddamn
https://viewer-trial.bookwalker.jp/03/20/viewer.html?cid=5811477a-96e3-4d09-85f7-bc102ed84c61Previews are out
>>287139467Kagenoniwano means Shadow Garden by the way.

>>287140549Thanks bro.
>>287138698prologuehttps://archive.is/gjS3u
>>287138692https://imgur.com/a/mtl-chapter-80-hYHhoVcChapter 80 of the manga that's MTL if anyone wants to find out what happens in pretty much the prologue of volume 7.
I was expecting the war between Velgalta and Oriana, but we'll see how it goes.
>>287138854I am unfamiliar with Nazono Senen. Can anyone explain who this mysterious young man is?
>>287142700A simply average Elven youth with totally average fighting abilities who really didn't save a candidate for the throne on purpose.
>>287142700Just your average elf you find anywhere
>>287142832>save a candidate for the throneand she's potentially stronger than alpha and zeta
>>287143378What makes Alpha and Zeta dangerous isn't just their brawn but also their brain, Delta's "stronger" than Alpha but Alpha beats her any day of the week
>just finished reading volume 7>cliffhanger endingAUTHORRRRRRRR!
>it's a two-parterShit. I was getting the feeling as I got to the end. Well, see you in five years for volume 8.
>>287143902yeah but Nazono is teaching her techniques that he haven't shown to others
>>287144155If we're lucky they only released 7 because 8 is now done and taking over being held for the movie instead of 7.
I would have been surprised if it actually concluded in a single volume. The plot point of the entire kingdom seemed big enough to take 2 volumes.
>>287142247This poor fucking mangaka. He'll have adapted this entire volume within a year and still have to wait another year minimum to have actual, canon content to publish. Lucky for him he really loves the series and is fine with doing his own thing.
>>287144271The movie still isn't until next year. Holding off on a finished novel for that long is insane. What dirt does Daisuke have on his editors that he's able to get away with this shit?
>>287140549I kneel, thank you based anon
>>287144483Mangaka is woman
>>287144483could probably cover some of the game stories, the mist dragon shit would be pretty cool for instance
>>287145563I thought women are supposed to be good at mangas? Anri Sakano's art is TERRIBLE
>>287145658I think the chibi manga covered the dragon.
>>287138769*actually learns japanese and translates the light novel from the shadows of discord*
>>287145658Like >>287146229 said, covered already.
>>287142247>this old would of mine, it's achingI love this fucking chuunitard
>volume is already ending right as the tournament is starting upAre you for real
>>287147013you rike?
>Crossdresser Alpha and Epsilon are both popular among the elf ladiesMan I better not wait two more years for another volume or I'm strangling the author
Holy fuck it was worth waiting two years for v7But I also don't want to wait another two years for v8Daisuke delivered
>>287145967I was unaware since I don't read the manga and just know that the mangaka had to start making shit up after it passed the light novel.
>>287148577ITS BEEN 2 FUCKING YEARS? No wonder I barely remember what happened with the novel.
>>287148977Why write books when you have a steady stream of gachabux?
The good part of being a two parter is that probably means the next volume will drop either later this year or early next.
>>287148863Nah the manga is still fully in canon>>287149190If the editors aren't putting this man in a 6 month deadline after this cliffhanger they should be fired
>>287149190>>287149223next year same time around movie
>>287138692Volume 7 B&W picture dump
>>287150961
Isn't this the crowbar edgelord with a harem thing? It got popular?
>>287150989
>>287151015
>>287151040
>>287151068
>>287151086
>>287151105
>>287151011The fuck you on about? It's been popular, at least in Japan
>>287147013Why are you surprised? TEIS has never finished its tournaments, its like a meme at this point.
>>287151165I guess there's an audience for played straight edgelord chuuni wishfillment. I remember dropping it right away due to cringe and it getting some mockery for that fact.Glad it's serving an audience that wants that type of content
>>287151068>holding handsGardenbros.....
I made some relevant contributions to the recent Class of 2026 chart. >Nuclear>Intellectual PropertyI think I did good.
>>287144158Which Shadow Garden will reverse engineer in a few months anyway. They need the powerups if Beta and Epsilon can get overwhelmed by mass artifacts.Lalanoa will likely be the one to "inherit" the Anbu from Nazono, and Sakura will take the throne supported by Mitsugoshi, the Conservatives, and Lalanoa's Anbu. I just don't know how Cid will wrangle Epsilon's burning hatred against him, its just like Beta and her anger towards Fallen Angel of Rebellion. It gives me confidence that Nazono will die and SG will never know he was Cid.
>>287151341TEIS was a top 3 Kadokawa IP 2 years ago. Wdym there's an audience like its not a majority.
>>287151128> I told you the name of the restaurant.>>287151068Alfred cucked again.
>>287151419>2 years agoStill is.
>>287151419>I just don't know how Cid will wrangle Epsilon's burning hatred against him, its just like Beta and her anger towards Fallen Angel of Rebellion. It gives me confidence that Nazono will die and SG will never know he was Cid.I mean the finale of the series should obviously be Shadow himself facing off against Shadow Garden and everyone he raised up.
>>287151011Check Kadokawa's financial reports. It's one of their top 5 IPs
>>287151040Vols 9 and 10 might be the Beast Lands then.
>>287151040Jesus Christ Beta's betas are absolutely massive here.
>>287152017>Shadow himself facing off against Shadow GardenHe kind of did that already though, so it's off his bucket list.
>>287152960And she's still 15, right? Women's tits grow bigger as they age, I wonder if she'll still keep them by the time she's 25.
>>287152017That's just the counterfeit arc
>>287151341It's a comedy. You're supposed to be laughing/cringing at the MC, not self inserting.
>>287153104You think Cid would consider putting Delta in the doghouse and sending her to kill some pathetic jobber, and handing Alpha her ass on a platter to be an adequate confrontation between The Eminence in Shadow and his (totally real) secret society? You don't understand his character very well if you do.
>>287148577V8 is probably finishing up or done, to be released when the movie comes out in 2027
>>287154150>>287153104Not really. Especially since he acted as John Smith.In Cid's mind the perfect true TRUE final boss would obviously be when everyone bands together to beat the "true" final boss but then the post-game EX boss (ie. Shadow) pops up to dab on everybody.
>>287155457I think you are severely mistaken in your understanding of Cid.The whole reason he's aggro against Mitsugoshi is because he thinks they're not sharing the money they made off of his ideas with him. But he doesn't want to directly harm the 7 Shades at least. Cid is delusional, not psychopathic.
>>287151341>played straight edgelord chuuni wishfillmentI really wonder if you watched the show/readvn and your iq cap never allowed you to realize it's a parody where MC plays his chuuni scenarios thinking everyoen else plays along while in reality everyone is seriousthat's the whole joke
Cid gets irritated the girls were always building up chuuni plots on their own without HIS input so he decided to blow em off and just keep playing out his badass chuuni scenes without them. A true Eminence in Shadow is not a write-by-committee workshop.
>>287156405He's just butthurt the they've gotten obscenely rich off of shit that he told them and too stupid to realize the money they've made is literally his.
>the war of succession is literally an online battle royale game with a closing circle and random spawn weaponsWhen I read other descriptions I thought it was just your standard FFA survival tournament, not an actual BR vidya.
>https://ln-news.com/articles/125231There's a new Aizawa interview out.>>287156508>the war of succession is literallyIndeed.
>>287140549how do i copy paste everything into gemini ai to get a translation?
>>287158140Just go download the MTL translations, they're literally on the front page of certain sites.
>>287158268can you give a hint so i can google it? i am not familiar with "on release day" MTL translation sites
>>287158280It's literally in some reddit thread
>>287158326already found it, thank you very much, i am going on vacation with my kids and i need something to read over there
>>287151419I think Lalanoa still becomes Queen over Sakura. Nazono will probably have to make up a story and "spill the beans" about the Cult of Diablos being involved in the war and why he needs to participate so that she doesn't officially withdraw. He'll just say it's for the future of the country, not revenge that he needs to stop them.
>>287158424That makes more sense. But then how will the entire knight with a terminal illness larp work out neatly?
>>287160186He dies in some flashy way and disappears, then Shadow shows up to clean things up. Also, he can say that he has met and trusts Shadow to finish the job regarding the Cult of Diablos so she stays loyal to shadow (though I don't think he cares about that). Saying that he knows Shadow also ties things nicely with the rest of the girls since someone Shadow acknowledges lets them accept their defeat.
Ahhh I forgot how good the novels were. Now if only Daisuke wasn't as lazy...
>>287138692bump
>>287163240Let it die, everyone's read the new volume and we're back to hibernating until v8 comes out
>>287154856Why would anyone except retarded normalfags cringe at the coolest guy ever?
>>287138692is alpha finally meeting her aunt?
>>287164323Read chapter 2.
>>287151341Retard, literally everybody who watched the anime loved it
>>287160663Then Nazono becomes a hero and his grave will be venerated by elves for generations
