Why has this been happening so fucking much as of late? I keep seeing random abandoned WNs gets picked up. I thought mangaka were doing it because it'd give them a solid start to work from (since that's all most WNs are: a solid start to quickly hit a wall) and he can do his own thing past the abandonment line.

And he's a fucking chronic, too.
>15 WNs since 2023 and not one finished, all abandoned before too long

He's clearing just aiming for a cheap publication than trying to write anything out of passion.

I've also apparently read this but have completely forgotten everything in the over 2 and half years ago since.
>>
>>290658593
This reminds me a series called Skill Lender's Retrieving. The author fucked it up by making the MC go from banished to OP right in the second chapter - he can lend skills at a compound interest rate, and if it overflows it "eats" other skills of the borrower. Plus the party kicking him to die was so hilariously petty-villain that it's simply not fun.

But let's say the MC got a skill like this. Without the interest rate, but he can reassign skills from one person from his party to another, if both consent, for as long as both sides want. Which useless skills would become overpowered when combined?
>>
>>290658954
>banished to OP right in the second chapter
For some reason this reminded of that barriermancer story where the first arc was very nice and somewhat emotional without too much bullshittery, and then the second arc is a tonal whiplash and the MC is your usual overpowered cocky guy and calling himself the demon lord. That sheep had nice tits, too. Oh well.

>>
>>290658997
There's no way he's earning much if anything off kakuyomu ad revenue, and if he wanted to earn a living writing, you can submit drafts to publishers without posting the draft on the internet and hoping someone sees it. I'd say being a competent or consistent writer helps but then you have A Nobody's Way Up to an Exploration Hero who absolutely cannot write, and is completely carried by character designs that the author had literally no part in because he doesn't describe any character ever.
>>
>>290658954
>from banished to OP in the second chapter

>>
>>290659017
Not in Japan, you don't. You just need tropes, passion, or a certain level of autism. Or in some cases, just a good character designer for the publication. That's how gacha sells anyway: character design.

I know the industry encourages it heavily and has for a while now. But the industry also axes this shit just as fast as it picks it up. Rarely see an axed author continue it on the web after, either. And unlike manga which will usually get a rushed ending, an axed LN is just done wherever the fuck it left off. So I prefer to not read axebait.

There's no point in continuing an axe'd work because it won't make a publisher pick it back up.
It's better for the author to start something new that might be a hit than devote more time to project that was already deemed a failure.

In many cases, you actually cannot. At this point, basically all LN publishers look at how popular your WN-draft has been as an indicator of whether it's worth picking up. The only way to get picked up as a LN straight off the bat is to be an established author with existing contacts and audience.

Well the skill edit one I am thinking of with anyone being able to trade skills has first girl be a dark elf(demon) slave girl, second is kemonomimi high priestess who hides her ears and tail until she becomes the mc's slave, third girl is the guild master for a town that overworks herself, fourth is an extremely perverted spirit of a sword, fifth is an elf slave(ancient elf homunculus), sixth is the sea dragon's descendant. That's all of the mc's slaves that have been introduced in the manga so far, and there is another girl, a noble introduced with the guild master, that is part of the harem but isn't his slave, and the next girl to join is hard to explain.

There might be other series with skill transfers, but I can only remember that one, though I know there are some job isekai where the mc can trade jobs between people.

The edgy vampire girl is the same, but only because the setting is the same universe as Earth, but in an artificial planet. Earth is a blue moon called Eden by the natives.
MC is both, an isekaijin because she has her memories from Earth and a native too because she was born on the Red Planet (which can't be Earth due to how close it is to Earth) and later she discovers that her past life memories aren't fake. She suspected her memories are fake when she learns that everything are nanomachines and humans made the isekai with those 4 fantasy races (vamps, wolfs, birds and elves) as a plan to continue humanity but once she got the authority to not stop that train of thought (everyone have some mental block that stops them from having certain ideas, MC has those mental blocks weakened thanks to her past life memories, but she is subjected with intense fear if she goes too far with forbidden ideas), she immediately asked her AI but she told MC that her past life memories are not fake and implied that it was an intended feature which means that more reincarnators exists which is heavily dangerous for MC.

I was always wondering why shoelacer isekai is so popular, considering that I never managed to enjoy a single one. But then I realized that it's a power fantasy for Japanese salarymen exclusively. Think about it - it's basically a story of a worker unappreciated by his company, who gets fired, but then goes to join another company and succeeds while his old place of work falls apart without his vital skills. The biggest issue with salaryman life is that you are keenly aware of your own worthlessness - most of them don't do jack shit and simply keep the machine going in hopes that something nice will somehow happen. So, of course, their greatest fantasy would be to discover that their skills were actually absolutely vital (and also to get a harem of loli slaves, maybe). That's what every shoelacer isekai is actually about. I don't get them because I'm not a salaryman, so my preferred power fantasies are something like KageJitsu. But once you start looking at them from that perspective (party = company, hero = CEO, protag = salaryman), it's impossible to unsee.

Now let me enlighten you even further. Ever wondered why nips took adventuring - something you'd associate with free-spirited wanderlust and thirst for the unknown - and turned it into a job stripped of any wonder or romanticism? Because the fantasy isn't about braving new frontiers or exploring forgotten ruins, it's about doing freelance work rather than being a corporate serf, and still getting social recognition for it.

With some implied scenes later being confirmed to not include sex, it's going to require something new happening and be very direct in the final volume. I hope for all of them, but know there's one who certainly won't happen in time, unless it involves timeskips.

It's getting unbelievable that someone hasn't done it yet. There's one girl that also could have be implied sex but considering all the rest it needs further confirmation.

This has to be the most braindead moment in the entire story, easily. I get that Ainz is not the brightest crayon in the box, so I don't expect Tanya-tier lolbertarian musings, but could the author come up with at least something more believable? Any Civilization player could tell you that there are ways of dominating everyone that don't rely on slaughtering every man, woman, and child on the other side anytime you are slightly inconvinienced. This makes Ainz a frustratingly confused character - he acts normal, then turns into a complete monster a minute later, and we're supposed to just ignore it.

The plot wouldn't meander so much. Overlord's initial volumes kept hinting at bigger shit behind the curtain but nothing ever happens and there isn't much of a deeper mystery.

>>
>>290665600
It's honestly a fucking shame, because Ainz is actually a perfect character for some superb storytelling. He's essentially Superman - unkillable and all-powerful, but limited by his human mind. So Ainz could have a fascinating battle with someone like Lex Luthor - someone powerless but exceptionally intelligent enough to foil Ainz. Especially after Ainz gets his own country, which is a clear weakness for him. However, throughout the story, Ainz only ever sees opponents who try to overpower him physically, which is the only thing we know is impossible. Gilgamesh was the only character who tried to challenge him intellectually even a tiny bit, but he turns out to be a worthless sperg who loses his mind for no reason.

Fuse created his own company and might be one of the authors with the best approaches on how to handle and leverage his intellectual rights to make Tensura a success rather than be mismanaged by silly and choleric publishers who have no idea how marketing works. He also kept powering through writing the final arc which he very obviously wasn't a fan off (literally me! I also don't like long-lasting climatic war arcs for some reason) and at his worst still kept a pace of a new volume every one-and-a-half years while still supervising the manga, anime, movies and by now 10 or so spin-offs. And he actually delivered with the final LN volume and now still keeps writing side-stories and after-stories.
Maruyama on the other hand was such a let down. Everyone used to hype him up and he seemed like cool guy with his mask and all but he turned out to be such a bitch whining about MUH piracy for Overlord, whines about wanting to drop Overlord to replace it with a "wrestling rom-com" and misses being a wageslave so much he wanted to go back to licking the shoes of his corporate masters oh so much over writing. And he doesn't even fucking write. How long ago was the most recent volume release? Fuck him. Only good thing he ever did was blackmailing Kadokawa with just dropping Overlord on the spot to force them to continue the Youjo Senki anime, IF the rumor that this happened is even true at all, that is.

As far as i read
Two of the male leads realized they have not just regressed, but are actually looping many times, one of them has at least regressed no fewer than three times. They also realized the heroine knows more than what she lets on. And the villainess is actually innocent who was made to be the scapegoat for everything and may be the key to breaking the time loop

Man, this is so goddamn shit. I'm actually angry about this ending.
So, they show us an orphanage at the beginning of the invasion. Then they repeatedly hammer home that Ainz will kill everybody in the entire city, including the kids. So I expected this to be a crescendo of his villainy. Go full Barefoot Gen, show us people die in the most horrible ways, children trying to pull their dead mothers from the wreckage, burned, dead hands sticking out of the rubble. The narrative is begging for it. Let Ainz walk through that and not express a single thought against it. This is what he was moving towards, and it's what he did. And all of it over an incredibly petty, stupid issue. There's no going back now; he needs to finish this story six feet under, and it's a perfect moment to fully let him become the villain he wanted to be, and transition into the final act, the world's collective counterattack against him.
What do they do instead? Absolutely nothing. The entire destruction is skipped. Nothing is acknowledged, nothing is done, nothing is said, nothing is changed. Instead, we get the same gay "muh Ainz-sama" scene of of the NPCs pissing their pants in dogezas for the fourth fucking time. And I even I read the spoilers; the next storyline is going to be yet another "Ainz goes to another country to swing his dick around" shit. With lots of le funny dumb salaryman gags, I'm sure.
What even is the fucking point of this anymore? Why was this story written? What's the idea, the philosophy? I could answer these questions for the stupidest Korean revenge fantasies, but not this story, because this story has NOTHING. This fucking nigger ran out of ideas on whatever volume the first season ended on, and the rest is just filler. Literal goddamn filler, for 3/4s of the story. How the fuck do you achieve the story pacing of a 70s tokusatsu show in a series of novels?

There is nothing confusing. Ainz is nice with Nazarick and very select few new-worlders who are useful to him or he thinks to be cute/friend.

With everyone else, he's acts like a lich he is. He respected Gazef and Zanack and Swords of Darkness, and he avenged their deaths and treated remains with respect. But that is all.

He acts nicely towards those the story finds convenient, and that's literally it. Why did he get so indignant over the death of that girl in season 1, to the point of killing Clementine in clear anger, and then saving her sister? She wasn't useful to him, she was a nobody. The only reason he got angry is because Maruyama wanted to show an epic revenge kill. In his kingdom, he acts like a benevolent king, but then genocides everyone a few kilometers away for being in the wrong place at the wrong time to make a point that nobody needed him to make. Let's build an orphanage for the kids in this town, and then exterminate the kids in that town that we're apparently taking over. We shouldn't stain my empire with ruins, except that town, I want ruins there. Morality simply doesn't exist for him, and by that I mean not "he's amoral" but "he literally has no morality; he acts like completely different people depending on arbitrary circumstances".
He's simply a bad protagonist.

>>290670467
Swords of Darkness were adventuring for romantic common goal. Ainz adventured with them shortly and saw his guildmates in them. Clementine violently snuffed them out so he got angry.

Foresight were looters who got blinded by greed and decided to trample & plunder legacy of Ainz' friends.

Ainz even outright admits he's a hypocrite with double standards, like every normal person actually: cares a lot about things and people close to him and little about people outside immediate reach.

You are literally an autistic retard to even make this comparison.

>Foresight were looters who got blinded by greed and decided to trample & plunder legacy of Ainz' friends.
Foresight was a group of adventurers trying to make some cash by digging through an old tomb. Something Ainz undoubtedly did countless fucking times with his friends in the MMO, considering that dungeon crawling is all you do in those games. Or what, did they get all their ebin loot from wild hogs in overworld locations? Foresight's only mistake was dungeon crawling in HIS tomb. If he was consistent with his nostalgic obsession, he would spare them instead of doing exactly what Clementine did (torturing and killing all of them) for the exact same reasons (because he felt like it).
>Ainz even outright admits he's a hypocrite with double standards, like every normal person actually
He only cares about what the story wants him to care about. Maruyama wants an evil protagonist who kills, pillages, and rapes everything out of sheer greed and anger, but he also wants a lovable doofus who totally cares about his buds and wants to build an egalitarian utopia of happy adventurers. None of it makes sense.

Yes. His buds are human-skinning psychopaths relishing in human suffering. Satisfying them is part of Ainz' responsibilities as an adoptive father.

It's called efficiently controlling and gathering New World resources.

A ruler that is too afraid to appear incompetent in front of his megamind subordinates
Goes along with all of their conspiracies
Which end up being slaughter and psychopatic experiments
Because they were created as literal human-hating demons
But he cares about them like children of his departed friends
A ruler who also wants to ring fame, or infamy, of his newfound country across the world
Hoping his friends would hear about it and come

Anime passes over many things
Primarily how paranoid and afraid Ainz is of Guardians finding out he's not a superkeikaku master with 10000 years plan

So if a country must die to preserve Ainz reputation among NPC, fuck yes he is doing it
He comes from 2138 post-apocalyptic dystopia anyway where he was lowest rung of the ladder human calculator scraping by in a toxic wasteland.

There is nothing brainded , confusing or unbelievable of his actions
What's unbelievable how you can spout so much bullshit after reading mega-compressed adaptation

>Translation: MC is a hypocrite who is powerful enough to kill whoever angers him. And your retarded ass somehow has a problem with this.
My problem is how inconsistent he is about who he kills.
>Yes. His buds are human-skinning psychopaths relishing in human suffering. Satisfying them is part of Ainz' responsibilities as an adoptive father.
Why is he afraid of them in the first place? They can't do anything to him. If they try, he can teach them a lesson, which is something he does early on with zero issue. It's always clear as day that they're incapable of turning on him anyhow. I fucking wish they would, that would actually be interesting.
>It's called efficiently controlling and gathering New World resources.
He has an infinite army of immortal workers, that alone provides him with infinite efficiency. Do you seriously believe he's doing it out of pure practicality, and not because being a heartless dictator would've made him too unpalatable, so the author didn't do it?
>You've watched anime yes, but your comprehension is piss-poor of even that subpar medium. I'm done arguing with you dumbfuck secondary. There are many problems with Overlord and Maruyama but you imbecile don't nearly meet prerequisites to discuss them.
I get that you really like the story. But the motivations and personality of the protagonist is easily the second worst part of it (the first being plot structure that goes nowhere most of the time). Trying to explain it away with him being a hypocrite simply does not work. His ruthlessness is defined entirely by the needs of the story at the moment, not his personality. And that's just not good enough.

He is a complete doormat for his friends and for the creations of his friends, basically his only rules are to preserve their memory as best as he can and to at least hear people out, even if he ends up not being able to do anything because of his first directive. Though he can be a bit petty too, so maybe lawful evil is right. He does go out of his way to do good at times, but he himself admits he has huge biases and he would rather be evil and have Nazarick and the memory of his friends be kept alive than be good and throw all of it away.
He's closer than you think to being lawful neutral, but ultimately because of his biases he is barely lawful evil

Not quite; the professional should be able to catch way more issues. Including stuff like tone and style, that "armchair proofreaders" (i.e. amateurs) don't, and that machine translation consistently fucks up.

I get that he cares about them. I don't get why he's afraid of them. When Shalltear, the strongest one, fought him with full force, she couldn't even make him flinch. So clearly there's not much to be afraid of. And I don't see why they would hate him either, seeing how he never acted like Ainz in Yggdrassil.
>Who are born out of MMORPG system and need to be trained for real world state applications.
So what? It's still an infinite resource he uses for land development without any issue. In fact, I sure fucking hope it's not actually infinite, or it breaks the entire world logic in half.
>He is a fucking lich with a vestiges of human who lived in post-apocalyptic shithole as a human calculator
I wish he was that. But he's a goofy, soft-spoken salaryman. When he's not talking in his Ainz voice, he makes Kazuma sound manly. He never has any clue what's going on, he never wanted to conquer anything in the first place, he literally comedy routines his way into making the empire his vassal state, which apparently became a huge shift in the status quo etc. That's the fucking problem. The difference between Ainz who makes Stalin look benevolent and Ainz the goofy bone papa doing standup comedy with Demiurge is both massive and never addressed. We're never asked to reflect on his violence, nor do we ever see any changes in his humanity.

It's a fucking tomb. We're also clearly shown that, just like adventurers, these guys are of all sorts - there are evil people, there are decent people. Foresight were clearly shown to be decent; they were doing it to save Arche's sisters. Quite obviously, they wouldn't have just slaughtered innocents. Ainz killed all of them in the most painful ways because he felt grumpy that day. Meanwhile, he spared the life of the rapist pimp who previously fought against Sebas and kidnapped the girl under his and Sebas' protection because... the rapist pimp was just so dang useful?... He even personally sent him to Nazarick for indoctrination. Arche, of course, could never have deserved such mercy, for she has committed the terrible crime of walking on his lawn.

That's hilarious, because the last thing Ainz would be is "believable". Redo of Healer is a more believable power fantasy.
If it had a goal of being a believable power fantasy, the first thing Ainz would've done is the stuff we see in half of all Overlord doujins - found himself a human body spell and proceeded to breed Albedo until his dick fell off (because the spell ran out). Then he would've most likely travelled the world to look for cool loot, as Maruyama portrays it, but he would never start all this warring states bullshit. Trouble should be looking for him, not the other way around.

>>290684739
>Why? He's a lich now and his strong desires are suppressed.
Because the hypothetical "what if it was a more believable OP hero does OP things story". The only reason this suppression thing exists is to not make the book into pornography, hence why it kicks in when he grabs Albedo's boob. But humans are obsessed with sex, like all animals are, so a realistic power fantasy would absolutely involve it, no matter how tasteless the author might think it would be.

His undead race with emotion suppression is not a tool to create interesting drama - it’s a tool to make him the most invulnerable motherfucker ever.

Does this look human, retard? He's an OP MC with responsibilities. In a what-if volume where he has none, he does go adventuring collecting new comrades and loot. Getting dick and putting it in a literal succubus, drowning in pleasure, goes against responsibility to take care of Nazarick as a whole. Which Ainz ponders in those words exactly in the novel.

I think that mindset is exactly why Overlord falls off a cliff after Shalltear's rescue. Why avoid it? Let him be seduced, and see what happens. Let him shit his pants, and see what happens. He can be an invulnerable god among men while also being profoundly human, imagine how fun that would be to read. Hell, imagine how much more fun that would be to write, which is something Maruyama really seems to struggle with.
>>

No, but on the inside, he very much is human. Maruyama himself would readily admit Ainz would be all over Albedo if not for the plot device designed to stop him.
>Getting dick and putting it in a literal succubus, drowning in pleasure, goes against responsibility to take care of Nazarick as a whole
I'm pretty sure every floor guardian except Demiurge and Sebas would consider putting his dick inside them as the greatest care imaginable. Yes, including Cocytus.
>I'm talking about you being wrong in your every post.
Considering that there are clearly more than two people here, the problem you're having is more like "anyone who talks shit about Overlord is wrong".
Again, I get that you like Overlord. There are things to like about it - the characters, the humor, and some of the stories are also good. But shit just doesn't hold up as a complete narrative, and the further it goes, the more it becomes obvious that it won't get better. When even the author goes "Man, I don't wanna write this shit anymore, chain me back to my cubicle, please" you know you have a problem.

I think the animeonly faggot that watched anime 10 years late should read the novels before he opens his mouth next time. Because it gets tiresome walking with an arrogant retards whose every argument is addressed in source material.

NTA, but...

Overlord inspired several other works in regards to having the "inner monologues" be some kind of unreliable narrator. Even tough Overlord itself eventually kinda dropped that plot thread due to the author losing their passion for it, the fact that several other isekai that can be traced back to Overlord retained it show that it definitely existed in Overlord at some point, though the inspired works differ on whether the "inner voice" is a fake personality, cope personality or just some kind of remaining vestiges of the sociopathic/psychopathic/eldritch MC's previous life.

Light novels have the exact same issues, though.

>Actually, Maruyama didn't stop writing Overlord.
Yeah, but when was the last actual LN release? According to Maruyama he wants to wrap everything up within two more volumes max, which should only be one by now, but he has to squish in so much content that of the initially "three remaining volumes" when he announced that he is ending it soon, he had to split the first one into two parts, so he is probably stuck in how to wrap everything up now.

The faggot clearly missed the entire inner monologue of Foresight when they decided to go through with raiding the tomb, Ainz' paranoia about losing face before NPC and his initial fear of being overthrown. The reminiscence of AOG ainz sees in SOD and other bits that supplement his motivations. Anime lacks details and animeonlies jump on them as "inconsistencies".

Series isn't without problems just without particular ones this secondary retard is blabbing about.

Yeah, that "discussion" reminds me of "something something I've read all 10 chapters of the Overlord novelization, trust me!"

last volume was in 2022
slave harem labyrinth and risou no himo seikatsu also lost steam around same time
it's not a unique author problem to lose motivation dozen+ volumes into the story
especially if your publisher keep fucking you with bad adaptations

Not this shit again. This song got really old during volume 6 or so.
Reading Ainz’s monologues during volume 15 really makes you want to punch both Ainz and the author.

>Anime lacks details and animeonlies jump on them as "inconsistencies".
Sure, it cut a few minor details, but otherwise they adapted the novels pretty much word for word.
All these elements you claim, like “The reminiscence of AOG…,” are not even of tertiary concern to the author compared to dabbing on the low-level plebs’ power fantasy.
