Chapter 10: Relic Palace 1Last thread: >>292095860Mizukami's Roadside Picnic adventure continues with a big weird dungeon you can't skip.
Thanks for reading
>>292111596So much for an open world adventure!
>>292111820I'm a bit confused about the word order in the first panel.
>>292112512Official scan for that page
>>292112538Yeah, that makes a lot more sense.
>>292112538Dura was having fun writing this manga wasn't he
>>292111838>Look I ain't a doctor or nothing but that's like, his whole stomach plug lying there
>>292111881The God of War's real conditions for him to be able to die are pretty good, though I guess it taking him this long to get to where he's got enough to care about was probably not something the god expected
>>292111978You think Black ever tried digging a hole just to see how good he is at it now?
>>292113913>Black at home
>>292113846Might be the heaviest moment in post-SS/SY/BH Mizukami for me
>>292111978Don't look back, never look back.
>>292111820>>292112538It's ironic that the Japanese kept the linguistic insinuation that magic is an evil thing that needs to be exorcised enough so they don't need some silly Latin name for that to tell us knights don't like it.
>>292113055I mean they even came up with a new title for this manga. Bunch of psychos.
>>292111978Thanks for dumping!
>>292111670Maybe it's not fair to complain about in here, but I so thoroughly hate the gamification of fantasy.
>>292116008Not only is it how modern readers connect with fantasy it's how they connect with games
>>292116008I mean, we have enough fantasy novels, books, comics, manga, anime, tv, movies, that don’t do that. Just consume those.
>>292111579
>>292113055I can't believe I'm starting to prefer an official release
>>292111978Thank you for posting!
>>292116308It's more that a lot of these stories would be strictly better without pulling you out to remind you that video games have funny rules.
Not yet.
>>292111805I really really love the Overpowered Lawful Good Paladin archetype
>>292111677oof that CG
>>292111900Ichiko in Climax Necromance has a very similar design in a very similar role but he had the guts to put the Reluctantly Murderous Immortal Prettyboy in a dress in that one.
>>292111749"The illusion of choice"
>>292111950Firo is GAR
>>292116008Between this and Climax Necromance I almost wonder if Mizukami's challenging himself to see how many web novel cliches he can cram into a story while keeping it interesting.
>>292121969>but he had the guts to put the Reluctantly Murderous Immortal Prettyboy in a dress in that oneNow I regret not following that storytime...
>>292123503Scans end right when the story starts up so we'll probably have another, better storytime for it in a few years.
>>292123388How I see it is he genuinely likes these cliches, knows his readers are ambivalent, and wants them to like them too; this is why he writes so many characters who are excited to go on adventures, who accept magic in their lives easily, because he's always accepted magic in his life easily (in one of the Biscuit Hamer afterwords he talks about how he was astral projecting recently)
>>292111900Getting whiplash from ascending out of hell into Solte's arms
>>292123388He hasn't descended so far as to give a work a long descriptive title yet.
>>292124341Yeah he's always liked those cliches, it just feels like he's using them a lot more directly with his recent 2 stories I guess
>>292126836They do feel awfully similar to the point I wonder if he had his assistant make Climax to give it a little distance
>>292111791Why are tomboys who are easy to flatter so good every time?
>>292127674That combination means they don't have the qualities that often make girls difficult to deal with. They're straight-forward about what makes them happy, rather than expecting you to observe a set of unspoken rules.Plus, it's cute to see their reactions to praise. There's also a gap moe factor, what with someone strong, a trait that generally implies independence, being so responsive to compliments, clearly enjoying the validation....maybe. I'm so tired I'm basically only half-awake right now, and I'm too socially retarded to be considered someone who truly has a grasp on something like the nature of girls or people in general, so it may be that I'm just typing a bunch of nonsense.

>>292129133last page btw
>>292129133>you can only die in a battle you're trying to winKhorne ass curse
>>292129600Solte needs to have Woman Moments ASAP
>>292129076Me when I try to join a conversation and everyone stops talking
>>292129003>this dungeon sucks I wish I was in the open world crafting items
>>292128918I love this page so much, this guy getting the consequences of his actions is so much more satisfying than him just dying
>>292130554Seems like he still has a pretty good chance of dying anyway for his shenanigans.
>>292129133Literally told by God "Never kill yourself"
>>292129133Thanks for dumping!
>>292128967I'm coming to like these goofballs more than the main party
>>292133793If the roles were reversed we'd start to feel the same way about those goofballs with the moleman and fairy.
>>292129133Thank you for posting.
