>>287628125The mental image of them floating in the sky for the entirety of the flashback is so damn funny.
>>287628543Absolutely nobody but the mangaka himself wants Gheer as a party member, isn't the editor supposed to be there to remind the mangaka that they are making a story for more than just themselves, in fact most people would rather Gheer was dead
The End. No break next week.
>>287628598Gheer is cool and needs some redeeming.
>>287628447Moe
Just kill Gheer holy shit
>>287628717Are we finally back?
>>287628851I hope so.
>>287628127How old do we think Nona is? She's drawn a lot more mature than the first chapter, obviously time's barely passed, and they're making her look more mature to match he resolve, but I could see her being 16-18 with how she's drawn here. While chapter 1 could be 13-15
>>287628666There's the unusual wands they were talking about
>>287628127>>287628125Who are these girls? I don't remember seeing them in this manga before.
>>287628936Enough
>>287628717See you next week, with another 27 pages flashback about how Gheer stole the boots from these officers
Somehow, the inquisition is to blame for stopping people that can bomb the shit out of others with a word.
>>28762893615 seems about right
>>287629092I can totally see that.
>>287629092Stop anon, I can only get so hard
>>287629174I didn't know the author posted ITT.
>>287628717>let's go back to the plot promised 20 chapters agooh, fucking finally
>>287628717Hopefully the pace picks up now
>>287628543Mira Mira is the only rational person in this group of morons.
>>287629527Nona looks just as horrified by Belator allowing it
>>287628125How do you guys see this being received in terms of sales? volume 1 was great and vol 2 sold very well from that momentum alone, but will it risk dropping with people getting tired of the artist + gheeriv back to back?
>>287628125Spiderwitch, spiderwitch!
>>287628125I’m not liking the party so far. The only one I like is still Nona, for story and interesting design. The rest still feel hazardously made and tacked on desu. Maybe I just had different expectations.
>>287629103Would they try to bomb if they weren't hunted to death?
>>287628474Kek
oh my
>>287628447God dammit>>287628717Oh hey, the plot is back.
>>287628210If a human and a mage can have a mage child, it's likely they can have a human child too.
>>287630337Nah. Mage genes are too powerful. Mages are hunted because people fear they will be outbred.
>>287628392I've completely forgotten what happened to them since these shitty flashbacks started
>>287630389If it really worked like that, then the terrorist mages should be spending their time impregnating as many women as possible and create an army of mages instead of blowing up random carriages.
>>287628717I genuinely can't fucking believe that we're meant to accept Gheer as the team badboy now.
>>287629923Lmao
>>287630585Hope you enjoy miramira's crush on him the moment he shows his gap moe.
>>287630477Given Hakuri's previous works, a dark twist like that to show these mages are indeed awful could happen.
>>287628717Thanks OP, I'm so glad the shitty flashback arc is finally over
>>287630649
>>287631056Goes for nona too, emotionally stunted x bad boy
FINALLY THE FLASHBACK IS OVERMAY THIS NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN
>>287630477That's too slow.
>>287631353>Raloud doing something with the girls/Belator>Hey Gheer come join us!>Gheer hesitantly tries to join in>Stops before he can get close>Flashback to him being a fucking prick>Tries to avoid them>Nooo big bro you're great remember when you used to pat my head?>Meekly joins in>Repeat
>>287628125Our yuri heroines!>>287628127>it's like she was looking at walking garbage>>287628166Woot, loot!
So author needed so much time to introduce a secondary fujoshit couple of younger and older boy among two main girls to join the main cast?Author is a woman, right?
>>287628338K-Kino?>>287628474>his smile and optimism: restored>>287628543Man, this guy's way too easygoing.>>287628695>>287628717HORY SHET
>>287628952WANDKAI
>>287631353yea now we can focus on the two guys here in the present
>>287628127>a glimpse
>>287628717Yeah I'm done with this series, 15 fucking chapters of this gay ass shit. Gheer being a complete backstabbing cunt who doesn't even get a slap on the wrist after all this is fucking wild. Any character who pulled this type of shit in another story would at best get a redeemed death. I can't believe Yuki Kawaguchi is getting such a short leash when this garbage is allowed to sprawl out at such an awful pace.
>>287633926She only saw one of the flashbacks.
Gheer is a good boy he just needs more money for prostitutes
>>287634509He doesn't need money for that now.
>>287630585Hopefully i am right about this and this is just temporary and as soon as Nona and Miramira get in the city they split off from eachother.copium
What if we never really exited the flashback and this is the flashback from Gheer's perspective as Quovelta are fighting the party and he tripped and bumped his head. It would be such a genius move from the mangaka
>>287635244From how this chapter was organized I almost guarantee they go their separate ways. my concern is that when the duo find Quovelta that we have to learn new character backstories for any considerable period of time. reach the city, have a run-in with the bureau, focus hard on Nona and Miramira for 15-ish chapters atleast with them in the spotlight.
>>287628125who are these cuties?
>>287628695>ningen deathholy fucking finally, I want to see a mage murdering these vermin in very large numbers soon
>>287628125Just because there are no flight magic—or extremely unique—this is better than Freiren
>>287635244For better or worse, Gheer has given everything he had to Gheerve, except for his redemption (though I think he’ll sacrifice himself and die or be captured in the coming chapters). Raloud, on the other hand, has all the mess with his pendant, his family, his life before Gheer, what happened to Belator’s wife and daughter, etc., so I can’t see him not joining the party permanently. The alternative, if they split up, would be to have dozens of chapters dedicated to his group, and that would be worse
>>287635527>my concern is that when the duo find Quovelta that we have to learn new character backstories for any considerable period of time.Yeah i can see where you are coming from, i just hope there isn't a 20 chapter flashback for each character
>>287636217Her mom could fly with a broom, which didn't seem to be based on her comb magic.
>>287636217
>>287637076One day, we'll see Lancia again.
>>287628125I wonder if the two boys become irrelevant after the bad taste left in the mouths of the readers
>>287628598>isn't the editor supposed to be there to remind the mangaka that they are making a story for more than just themselves,The editor is too busy managing his new publishing company.
>>287628189https://youtu.be/25fTcXlV8L8?si=uA1RAkh0dPW9xNQw&t=26
>>287637253>>287637076The rapelications of the mother under bureau control?
>>287637253God, this manga would be far more interesting if Lancia is the MC and Nona is the MacGuffin.
>>287639132>The rapelications of the mother under bureau control?I wish.This setup is too perfect for a rape scene.https://files.catbox.moe/67ihp7.png
>>287628695>>287628666finally ethnic cleansing
>>287639176The only curvy Milf-Protag anime/manga I can think of off the top of my head are Witchblade and that one Superhero ecchi manga with the mother and her hero daughter. Would be interesting to see though, pretty darn rare.
>>287639054I don't despise CSM's ending as much as I probably should, but come on Lin, you should have reigned Fujimoto in, even just a tiny bit more. Shoulda told Hakuri that we don't need to know every last detail of Gheer's life too.
>>287629899Exactly, they're creating their own problems
>>287631834It's exponential
>>287631182But I wanted Nona to fall for some cute terrorist she sets out to actively seduce
I don’t get it. It’s against the law to use magic but the gestapo uses magic too
>>287640048It’s against the law to use guns in most countries and yet their police use guns
>>287639054>>287639856Wait is lin actually the editor or do you mean that in the sense of him being jump+ editor in chief?If he's actually the editor then why the fuck is spy x family so hamstrung while witchriv gets to make these horrible mistakes
>>287640048It's against the law to be a mage. Using magic is perfectly legal.
>>287629899like with all things, there will always be a few psychos and retards that kill for the lulzit's better to force them into the army to boost your national security and military might
>>287640262>Wait is lin actually the editor or do you mean that in the sense of him being jump+ editor in chief?Like with any type of editing practice in publishing company, one editor jump start and handle the whole serialization from initial pitching to editing the earlier chapters and then delegate his job to more junior editor once the momemtum has been established.Notice how both this flashback arc and CSM's part 2 ending being horrible happened around the same time? That's when Lin started to delegate his editing job to his juniors to focus on his new department.>If he's actually the editor then why the fuck is spy x family so hamstrung while witchriv gets to make these horrible mistakesBecause the author of SxF have zero passion for his own work and just write what his current editor think could work. One might think this is a bad practice but it helps keeping things professional.
>>287640351>there will always be a few psychos and retards that kill for the lulzThis never used to be the case
>>287640313Why don’t they just do the sovereign citizen thing and do magic but say they don’t identify as a mage huh do it the American way
>>287636217>Just because there are no flight magic—or extremely unique—this is better than Freirenanon... they have brooms
>>287629740>How do you guys see this being received in terms of sales? volume 1 was great and vol 2 sold very well from that momentum alone, but will it risk dropping with people getting tired of the artist + gheeriv back to back?it all depends if we are finally back with the mage rebel faction
>>287629092
>>287628717Oh yeah the main plot I remember
>>287628717The whole flashback and re-friending could have been 4 or 5 pages top.
>>287628125fuuuck I forgot about this manga after comick went down, I need to catch up
>>287642941Just skip the flashback and go directly to the next chapter.
>>287642995>Just skip 66% of the storyI get it but damn
Apparently Volume 2 had a short extra. I couldnt find it in english, just the spanish fanscan
>>287643110
>>287643123
>>287643131
>>287643110>>287643123>Bad at talking>Incredibly good at lyingHow did you end up like this?
>>287643528She was the kind of kid who, when playing house, would make the father an unemployed man who pretended to go to work and the mother a cheater
>>287643146Fucking adorable Miramira face, kino. So glad we're back to our heroines.
>>287643528It's not so crazy if you think about it. Mira grew up shy because she feared the consequences of honesty, but when she's acting a part she doesn't have to worry about that.
Rape scene soon. Hopefully.
>14 flashback chapter just for magic boots originJesus Christ
So who is going to get to use the boots now?
>>287643110It's amazing how you have more interaction between the two protagonists in a 4 page extra than the actual series
>>287644349>the two protagonistsBold of you to think mira matters more than the two new guys
>>287644395I don't think any of them do to be honest, I am pretty convinced their strategy was just "let's use the girls to get attention for the first arc and then introduce the real protagonists in the next arc", which honestly explains this weird long ass flashback if it was actually scripted as the actual start of the series.
>>287640972Because just like IRL, it's not up to them. Magical Gestapo decides who is and isn't a mage.
>>287642801Is that what Shinobi undercover is doing
>>287643123Oh god, this dork is literally me
>>287643110Maybe this whole set of flashbacks should have been a volume extra spread over a dozen volumesor maybe more realistically this could have been a tie in novel, although obviously they wouldn't let you do that until you maintained your popularity for a bit
>>287644290Forgotten about I bet
>>287643146what an autist hahahai can't speak spanish but the gist of it is that she wants to get to know nona more, then all seriously asks what her favorite color is and nona is all like "oh when you said know eachother more i expected something serious, not a simple presentation" and mira blushesalso impressive how the moment gheeriv ends the threads pick back up
And they are just gonna ignore all the awful things the boots guy did before their reunion?
>>287647922That's about right. She learned all her conversation skills were just the introduction.Kind of ooc since she's been able to talk normally in previous chapters.
>>287648131None of them really have a choice. They're all toast if he gets away and falls into the hands of the inquisition. They could tie him up but a) he's not a threat without the boots and b) they can't afford to fight Raloud.
>>287647752All she had to do was keep things more succinct. The backstory isn't so complicated that it needed nearly eight entire chapters dedicated to it. Hakuri often uses multiple pages to convey information that could fit in one panel.
I think the author wanted to make a borderline BL manga instead of a witches one.
>>287628127>it was like she was looking at a flashback
>>287643146Enjoy it while it last, soon miramira will be bashing ningen's heads into the floor
>>287648605Good? But he has such a generic damaged badboy design I feel she built him up for Nona.
>>287649293Audible kek
>>287649293good one, have a (you)
>>287649293I don't get it.
>>287651476It's a reference to the common meme "it's like she was looking at walking garbage"
>>287651658Oh I see, it actually fits.
