Use the stepping stone.

They get to choose a class?

No one wants to start out with a roll that slow. Especially in anime, where dodge is king and block is useless.

Maintaining that armor is a lot of work, don't you think? Almost more trouble than it's worth.

Because Warrior and Bandit have better starting attributes for PVP.

But they could make it so blocking is actually effective. Like literally make a full on Knight anime or isekai where the enemies are mostly unarmored peasant trash and laugh as their shitty spears break upon impact of the glorious heater shield.

because it's the most boring.

Is there any isekai where MC starts as the Deprived class?

Because deprived provides superior stats at SL 99.

People who chose a Knight or some Paladin class are just boring casuals.

>deprived
>superior stats

If they don’t run around beating up gots at sl1 with a club then they really need to consider their life choices. Shit’s fun as fuck.

>boring casuals.
That's dexfags though.

So you can have a hot female knight in your party.

Because they're always broke as shit and knights need gear

In all honesty I agree - it would make for a refreshing change of pace. But there are problems, especially with tropes people expect in anime.

For one thing, they would have to commit pretty hard to limiting the speed of combatants, because after a certain point of increasing speed versus increasing defense the latter becomes essentially useless - and because speed generally mismatches with plate armor. It would have to be oriented strongly around either shields or characters being able to take blows repeatedly without significant damage. To achieve this in a supernatural setting would take serious dedication; a more realistic setting would be more feasible, but is even less likely to be made.

Generic anime fantasy realms are based on countless iterations of dragon quest, built upon tropes and clichés.
In these types of fantasy, knights are usually part of some order, which cannot be joined by an outsider MC. Knight is not a "class".

I'm eternally mad that the Goblin Slayer adaption was shit. Finally we get a protagonist who uses practical armor, practical weapons, and makes use of tools and the environment to win, rather than just blowing the enemy away with a bunch of gay magic wank. It just had to be an ugly CG shitshow of course.

Why do isekai MCs never carry a BIG FUCKING SWORD?

Attached: big fucking sword.png (1011x460, 683K)

Dunno, do guys like Brendel and Ray count as knights?

Being the sword and board dude is choosing hard mode in a world of wizards and 2fast2furious dudes.

Why not have an isekai where almost everyone has some magic ability of some sort, but the MC doesn't have any magic in his blood because he's from earth, forcing him to play a purely physical build with no crutches? Perhaps he was a fan of history and had a bunch of sword fighting manuals saved on his phone. It'd be cool seeing a NEET grow from a weak pussy to a genuine samurai.

Naotsugu is a bro. Too bad it's probably been too long since S2 to hope for a S3, much less one handled by a competent studio.

Why knight?

Havent seen a single Isekai MC even play anything close to a bard class.

Theyre all just side characters.

>Havent seen a single Isekai MC even play anything close to a bard class.
We're definitely getting an idolshit isekai show at some point.

I think, this only possible in rezero since mc could repeat as many times as needed to remember location and discover safe path and timings.

Knights are just cannon fodder in the typical fantasy world where mages and dragons can just spit fire at you. Also probably takes more skill to draw/write a melee fight compared to just having characters throw magic at each other.

Battle choreography is hard user, why waste time and budget on something like that if you can use CG effect template for magic.

To avoid any kind of necessary training. That, and the fact that isekai MCs are usually a way to the targeted audience to self-insert.

Are there any with a 100% Luck build?

Wrong, deprived only provides a balanced character at SL99.
You only get superior stats if you minmax and specialize.

>SAO

I could have sworn you ended up with more attribute points starting as a SL1 deprived than if you started as a dedicated class, but I could be mistaken. It's been awhile, fuck this thread makes me wanna go play souls again.

DS1 deprived is not even SL1.

Yeah that I know.

The Novel's Extra has the MC spend points in his luck stat and he ends up being lucky as fuck, to the point that other characters think he's extremely competent when most of the time, he's just lucky

At least he wasn't a casul.

because magic is better than swords
knights and swordsmen a shit

Fuck you, wizards were only created so that nerds will have something to self insert with. There's a reason wizards are stupidly broken in DnD, because their target audience love that class so much.

Yea except almost every single murder hobo MC.

That's gay. They don't even need a sword pick related when he's first summoned murders everyone barehanded. It's basically the same for that 'summoned slaughterer' MC.

Arifureta dude dual wields revolvers, does that count?

I'm new to isekai, only ever watched Overlord.
Is there any isekai where the mc becomes a bard/minstrel and actually does some roleplay?

Brendel is the knightiest knight that isn't actually a knight. He was however a full fledged knight originally.

Attached: images (2).jpg (236x298, 11K)

Is there a Witcher class? I like the two swords on my back.

Deprived is the worst class to minmax.

None of them are strong enough to dual wield Tower Shields.

He basically blessed by heaven, human max luck is 9 and he have 9.1 on top of that. Extremely lucky is not even enough to describe his luck

Because there is no conceivable way you'll ever make it as a knight. A scrawny Japanese schoolboy outfighting a guy who spent ten years learning how to fight? It's hard to suspend disbelief. With magic, for which there are very little rules, I can believe a teenager can take on ten men.

But if you're one guy with a sword and shield, and you're fighting ten guys with swords and shields, you're fucked. The greatest swordsman in the world could fight maybe four of them before the other six punch swords through his spine.

Also, most isekai protagonists don't like to kill up close and personal i.e. They want to avoid the messy truth that people bleed a fucking lot when they get stabbed.

but you get cheat power [Sword mastery lv.10]

Well, speed isn't the same as agility. A tanky lad might not be dancing about but let him have some space to get a running start and he should be able to bulldoze through a small crowd with his shield up and spear couched like a lance.

Too often shield users in anime just use them to block straight on and nothing else, not even blocking at an angle to deflect the hit and have it slide off to the side. Where are the backhands that knock the weapon away and smoothly set up for a stab to the throat? Where are the shield edge punches that come out super fast and shake the fuck outta the other guy's helmet and skull?

There is not enough material to adapt, that is the only reason why we didnt get season 3 yet.

few series show such technical combat, even "martial arts" series are filled with a lot of bullshit.

I actually want to see some more exotic classes for the MC. What about a puppetmaster MC who can control multiple battle puppets, but can also use the strings as a weapon? Or a shapeshifting druid.

>shapeshifting druid.
>another gender bender isekai

no thanks.

I don't know what they tell you in your gender studies class, but "bear" is not a gender, so transforming into one doesn't count as gender bending.

Attached: 1537712539548.png (168x194, 69K)

battle cook with skills to cook enemy mid battle.

>but "bear" is not a gender
Not in 2019.

I remember one isekai where a group of people got isekai'd and they had to spin a wheel to get jobs, I think the MC got only useless ones like cook. I think he only used his knife though, so no fancy cooking abilities.

Because most of them are incapable of finding happiness in anything than "roar look how rebellious and cool I am!'
The same reason isekai MCs rarely get friends as part of the 'package'. Isekai authors only understand a little of what people want.

More importantly, why the fuck do they never wear helmets? They could be wearing a full suit of armor, and they never seem to cover the most important part.

I mean, giving the usual shit on isekai nowdays, a shapeshifter MC would be just a excuse to have girl as mc

I was thinking more about a druid from world of warcraft that transforms into animals to fight and not other people.

>Enter a world of magic, fantasy races and monsters, and literal god-cheats.
>Choose to be the guy who carries around heavy armor and hits things good.

Because hilariously, blocking is most effective when you're unarmoured, which is why shields got smaller and smaller as armour improved.

>practical weapons
Yeah dude a shortsword is definitely most useful for the caves we see
It would be stupid to bring along a spear or something and use the shortsword as a sidearm
There's no such thing as draw cuts or stab wounds with larger weapons

For the same reason people in movies don't wear full-face helmets or masks
If someone is in armour and is wearing a helmet they're very likely to be fodder

Excuse me but did you just deny my inner bear the right to be a gender? Maybe the real me is rubbing my ass on trees, stealing pickanic baskets, and getting into silly shinaniganswith park rangers, did you ever think of that?

>from world of warcraft

>an excuse
You could just have a female MC normally yes?

>tfw no inspector gadget isekai

A shapeshifter MC who can take the form of anyone he sees, and uses that ability to enjoy the bodies of girls he knows. And then tells those girls what he did.

Take the offer, wait to see what kind of slaves they are later. And hope she wasn't evil and trying to make them male sex slaves.

Ask for her

Because elevens prefer their one million times folded curved pieces of metal.

I am reminded of that idea for a series anons had years back where there's a world of magic with evil mages and MC is some classic knight guy who never speaks and travels around with a group of magical girls defeating the evil wizards. It was a comedy where MC is forever denied his cool sword duel because everyone uses magic but unintentionally always saves the day somehow despite no magic. The finale was an enemy wizard who pulls out a sword and prepares to engage in honorable combat with MC finally only for magical girls to nuke him while his defense was finally down.

Sounds like a taniguchi-san doujin.

why isn't there an isekai with a proper nippon damashii protagonist who uses the style of Iai that was passed down for centuries and folded over 100000 times.

Because he doesn't have talent for magic? And he's a warrior because the God's using the world for their game rolled him as a warrior when he was "created".

fucking kek at the filename
the real ranking is using a giant slab of metal that you arent supposed to even hold up > everything else

>he gets a cool sword later
Does it become his main weapon
This is extremely important for me

because most isekai are based off fantasy/medieval europe so you see a lot of weapons based off that period. they still sneak in a katana as the ultimate weapon though.

because it's actually really cool and vaguely edgy. It's a huge iron club that looks vaguely like a sword, without the things iron clubs are usually associated with in Japan (i.e. Oni)

tell me he gets a shield with the sword

Guts is one of the most masculine MCs who uses a sword in manga is why.
He's is the pinnacle for how to write a multi-layered character as well, his sword also popularized himself and the series, so naturally videogames and other manga try to copy that looking at you darksouls

there is no hero that fight with shield on.

does he even use any of all those daggers in his chest?

Yes its literally a end game sword

I only remember stuff like Demon Sword Maiden and Komaki as far as ye olde Nippon fetishism goes.

Iai-isekai would write itself though.
The protagonist gets challenged to a duel by a proud knight lady, he gets pushed into a corner and he beats her by using a sword move based on Iai techniques. The knight lady reluctantly tries to get him to teachher his skills. They travel around in search of a proper Japanese sword. As they become more famous the protagonist gets a blacksmith to make him a proper sword, but it's not as durable as grorious nippon steel, so he can only use it a few times.

Later on he carries multiple-single use magic katana.
idk, you can come up with something.

>katanas > greatswords

They're throwing daggers which is why he has so many and why they all have no gaurd or real hilt

He's used them on numerous occasions, but the scale of the enemies he faces has generally increased to the extent that he rarely gets any mileage out of his ranged attacks.

because wizards have asspull spells while knights only have a sword and a shield

the shitty isekai writers can't write a story wtihout an overpowered MC

Then he comes face to face with a dude using a spear and gets his ass demolished by the king of weapons

his Iai is fast enough that he cuts the spear apart

It literally doesn't matter
The spear's main advantage is range (and speed) which means that you literally cannot get within the range of your sword before eating a spear point, especially with a sheathed sword
Basically my point is FUCK SWORDNIGGERS

Theyre trash writers that never wanna see their self insert actually struggle

To be fair, there is literally no reason to pump Str above 9 (to be safe from 1d8 Str Drain) in most cases. The only thing it affects that you want is carry weight, unless you're a HH or UC or something, and you have slave -- I mean pack mule -- I mean, valuable allies to supply that for you.

Magic allows the MC to be the author's OP self insert. Though I do wish there was an isekai where the MC wants to get /fit/ instead of relying on magic or OP items/abilities/etc.

Because isekai is for teenagers and they all want HAYAI magic cool anime battles with MMO armor. A proper realistic armored warrior with sword and shield would be boring for the average otaku.

Yes. He has two ranged attacks, the first is a blitz by repeating crossbow prosthetic and the second are the daggers which he uses when he needs to be more accurate. Usually with the daggers he aims for the eyes or to distract his opponent before SLAMJAMMING them

Only knight that comes to mind is Bella.
Who else?

No matter how devoid of males a yuri series is, a male role is always needed, and nothing screams MALE ROLE more than a knight.

Either it's a really bad adaptation or this is the most overrated series yet. The snails pace plot progression. The protagonist is the least developed character and all the others have been left behind with the first arc. The only redeeming feature is that Will is actually relatable instead of your typical isekai edgelord/otaku and there's no thots so far.

It'll probably never be animated because there's no narrator or stupid video game ui that the shitty studios can cg in with heavy filters to hide their shitty art.

Maybe I don't have enough contact with humans, but they look fairly normal to me.

Since this is a thinly veiled video game thread anyway I'd like to mention Heralds of Xotli in Age of Conan, they were fun as fuck to play. Basically a regular robed mage using a two handed sword, burning shit with flames, turning into a demon on the regular and eating enemies' hearts. I don't think any game came close to making a battlemage type character feel so great.

i mean if you miss he'll probably fuck you up before you could reload, but if it's a gun that's got nothing to do with being a /fit/.

there's nothing more to say besides, don't think going to the gym makes you billy badass.

>spear
a longer choppy sword would be better. Something like a Kriegsmesser or a two-handed Falchion. The guy in episode 1 could swing his sword just fine for the most part and even killed a few goblins until he got careless and disarmed himself.

Well either way the point is that he really should have a primary weapon, especially to deal with those fuckoff huge hobs. A spear or a guisarme would let him stab them from a safer distance than literally climbing on top of them.

Cardiovascular health comes with the territory of actually learning how to fight
It doesn't imply huge fucking muscles or even massive strength. Strongmen get utterly shit on by people who actually know how to fight, because being strong is useful but martial arts and fighting knowledge is about how to dismantle the human body, outside in and inside out. It doesn't take a lot of strength to kill someone. A quick tap on the throat does in literally anyone who didn't guard right, because you cannot train your windpipe to be more durable.

A spear doesn't actually have any blind ranges, if you've actually watched them. There's a reason HEMA tends to ban spears or long polearms outright from normal sparring, therre's literally no good answer to the speed and range advantage they give to you.

Well my thought process was because goblins are unarmored and that is where a sword is best at, and you can still thrust with it, and there's generally enough space in the front and in the back in such a cave, and they usually open up later in these settings (in fact, it does so right in the first episode), so if you have the space, you could potentially get multiple Goblins with one swing.

Even after they came along, really
Pike and shot dominated European battlefields and arguably the bayonet is just a bastardized spear made out of a rifle.

It depends on the setting. Some settings have I CAST FIST type of warriors.

You can't really cleave through people in real life
Obviously fantasy and all but GS is low level as hell, and if he really wanted to cleave then something like a fauchard (a glaive mounted backwards, basically, sort of like a war-scythe) makes more sense.

Dune-style: slow sword penetrates the shield.

The greatest strength of a sword of his length is stabbing and reversed draw cuts (i.e. drawing your sword backwards while pressing against someone, causing what is essentially a giant paper cut). The dude was just a fucking idiot and spears can be stabby i.e. perfectly suited for extremely narrow corridors, and cheap enough to throw away if you need to. GS's author just has no idea what he's on about.

He's level 6, tops.

Not through the center of their bodies, in general. A limb, maybe, but remember that even zweihanders are maybe four, five, six pounds. They're not half-ton behemoths.

But lady maria is taller, and i like tall blonde pale girls.

if goblins got smart enough to have disciplined spear formations it would be over for adventurers, their caves would all become mini-Thermopylaes

>You can't really cleave through people in real life
Do you volunteer as tribute?

Polearms are the single best primary weapon though, whether massed or in single combat. Swords are extremely good at being sidearms and also have their niche but there's really a reason literally every army massed polearms, whether on their nobles or on their peasants

The one with TRY's oppai lolis is essentially a Bard, even though he's called a gambler and looks like Moonwalker Michael Jackson.

Yeah, but that doesn't explain why even among the armoured nobility, the sword played second fiddle to the spear or glaive. The range advantage they provide is honestly just devastating, you have to understand that you're essentially just giving them free potshots when walking into their range, and for cavalry range is an even bigger deal because their main advantage is that they attack you from higher up.

1 vs 1 spear is shit against sword + shield. Shield + spear fares just as bad.
Sorry faggot.

Spear shines against the sword without a shield or in a formation.

I wasn't arguing against you, I was just saying that they're much more cost effective. Their superior range made them really good though I still think swords are cooler overall

Well shield thingies are already in development for thingies.
Granted, they probably cannot take concentrated fire and would have a cooldown period, but in 2050AD war you wouldn't be able to one-shot any infantry target with small arms. Melee weapons are always on soldiers for cqc anyway, it'll have much more sense to prepare them when going up against another shielded walking can that can take your entire clip to take down.

The word is tragic, not edgy.

I mean if you have utterly monstrous strength, sure. But for the most part, and certainly for someone with GS' demonstrated strength, he wouldn't be able to go clean through the bone structures of humanoids. Bones are tough.
And if he wanted to cleave, again, fauchards. A sword is easier to handle than a polearm because most of the weight is around yourb grip point, which is the same thing that makes it harder to smash through (since you don't have all your weight at the end).

I think most people imagine clean cuts going straight through the torso of a man when they say 'cleave'. In a more general sense yes, it's possible.

Did those NEETs finally come across the universal truth, or is this one of those hare-brained schemes from Abe?

SWING A BROOM IN YOUR BATHROOM FAGGOT

what's to stop a guy with a shield from fucking you up?

What is the best combination of classes for a 2 person party?

It mostly has to do with the fact that there's nothing stopping a person from making a normal piece of clothing like a scarf or a bra hold armour enhancements. At high levels, the only type of AC that matters is Touch AC (because spells target Touch and so do martials worth the name). The 'normal' AC that heavy duty armour provides simply doesn't matter anymore, while its restrictions on you Dex bonus mean you will most likely have lower AC than the dodger.

No? The main way to deal with armour with a sword is either murder-stroking which is basically just using your sword as a staff, or halfswording, which is using it as a shorter bastardized spear.

2 spearmen

But how would a spear be better?

Short sword + tower shield
Spearman

Realistically the fact that spears are also likely to have shields
That said we're generally considering the weapons in isolation. Otherwise you'd be able to remark that spears are generally cheap while anyone able to afford a good sword is also in decent armour.

Go away musashi

pikeman and halberdman, literally invincible

>using it as a shorter bastardized spear.
>admits spear length is a demerit
Finally.

>Realistically the fact that spears are also likely to have shields
you know a sword and shield will fuck up a spear and shield every time right?

Magic User and Knight with shield

Literally two wizards

It's designed to be used as a spear, instead of being a bastardized one, and it can be used as a staff since it essentialy is a staff with a pointy end. Both are going to be stumped by something on the order of plate or heavy lamellar, though.

some swords were made with stabbing in between armor joints in mind though this isn't wholly correct.

>crossbow
DOMO

Yeah but we're considering the weapons in isolation, and it's less of a beatdown than a spear and a sword.

Two wizards magic is the most versatile shit

Those aren't really the swords you'd use in conjunction with a shield, unless you're talking about the really niche thin blades
They're basically just glorified daggers..

What it needs to be donde so i can use a claymore in battle in an effective way ?

>>
so you're response to me bringing up the fact that a person using a sword has a free hand, and a person using a spear doesn't. is to ignore the fact the sword has a free hand. okay chief.

Manga is up to the end of vol 6 WN wise but you really shouldn't follow the manga as it skips and fucks up a lot events and is basically a summary of what happens in each volume and also botched Zanoba's introduction/arc.

What we've learned today is that while martials debate whether 1d8/x3+reach or 1d8/19x2 is better, wizards are busy casting Colour Spray and Suggesting the girl have his babies.

Having a great full-plate armor is a must. Also endurance.

That's not quite accurate. A shield gets less advantage as your armor is more capable of blocking opponents strikes, but in a fantasy world with creatures with greater strength than humans, shields would still have a place, even on a fully armored individual.

Really good armour, basically. The reason the greatsword really took off is that armour reached a point where shields didn't actually do much unless it was a buckler.

I mean you're right, but I do feel like if you're fighting an ogre the key has to be on not getting hit. Even if you block a strike your arm will surely crumple under the impact of a 12 foot, 900 pound behemoth's strike.

Swords are excellent weapons in D&D. The oversized bastard sword is a famous example. It's usually a good idea to pick feats that specialize in a single weapon, and longswords, bastard swords, or greatswords being highly common make them ideal choices for committing to via feats.

Most martial builds should not specialize in longswords, correct, but if you're a fighter or paladin who are focused on things other than doing attack damage, you might as well pick the longsword. Crit fisher scimitar builds, rock throwers, and area control defenders shouldn't touch the things, but not everyone has to play a crazy optimized build.

There's an Iai technique to strike with your sword in every position, after all that is what Iai was made for.

idk man
Paladins aside (they can go bow paladin), what do fighters actually do besides A. do damage B. defend? If they're defending then the spiked chain or (if your DM bans that gay shit) the guisarme/fauchard tripfishing is all you want from them really. WHich is part of the problem, they don't really have any options.

Now that I think about MT's swordsmen can be literally magic swordsmen. I'm not talking pure one who only use Touki like Eris and the majority but the ones who have talent to use both touki and magic like Temple Knights from volume 21 during the Zenith's/Cliff chapter.

They countered all of Rudeus's magic with defensive barrier magic, counter elements and water god style. Unless he had his Gundam there to overpower them by pure firepower he probably would've gotten his arms cut off.

Ainz does it against Go Gin.

Not every thread about isekai is a general for your little fan-fiction club. I don't know what the fuck is happening with you guys lately. It was a pretty confined thing, not some kind of attention whoring fest.

It's still a confined thing, you are just a retard who didn't realize he was in an isekai thread and started whining about it.

Fuck off.

>what goblin slayer almost was
this image makes me sad

Do you really not see the irony? Did you already forgot why are you even "hiding" in those threads?

There's no irony, novels are allowed on a.
Cry a river faggot.

Just go back to /tg/ already.

Except none of this is allowed on Yea Forums

get on with the times granpa
we're on the fifth edition know, the whole 19-20/x2 has been deemed as "too complicated" and complicated rules are literally "gatekeeping females out of the hobby".
Now longswords are just a d8 and that's it. There's now literally no difference between a longsword and a battleaxe.

make the jew MC

Fifth edition is as canon to me as End Times is

Gold satchel. Beat baddies up with coin purse.

Isn’t every weapons doing the same shit from that WFRP ripoff shilled on /tg/?

but is 5e more or less canon than 4e?

>There's no irony, novels are allowed on a.
Original fan-fiction has nothing to do with Yea Forums. Generals are also prohibited. You cocksuckers will get instantly evaporated if anyone will ever bother to explain the whole deal to some hot pockets on irc.
Yet you have the nerve to at somebody like that. What a fucking disgrace.

lots of "narrative" systems have every weapon doing the same shit. Also any system shilled on /tg/ is shit

I mean 4e led directly to Pathfinder and SoM/SoP/PoW and the insane shit that is the Arcanist, so it did something good at least
Meanwhile 5e led to Critical Role

lit doesn't like manga or light novels despite them being basically young adult novels for japs.

>irc
>he doesn't know

>have the nerve
Yeah I do: fuck off with your dnd editions and spear/sword banter to
This thread has isekai in OP, making it isekai related.

>Original fan-fiction has nothing to do with Yea Forums.
where's the original fanfiction, i saw a guy link to manga and some dude explode at him, is that what you mean by fan fiction serialized manga?

Because Yea Forums hates young adult novels and fantasy novels that weren't written by some dude who is already dead too.

isn't there a story about a skeleton knight?
Who literally calls angels and shit?

People already did that, mods went on an autistic spree and we moved on like we have done a million times already.
I don't even know why you are bringing up the homebrews when the closest thing we had to that were like 4 Minotaur posts.
I don't even understand your reaction. People spent the whole fucking thread talking about isekai and /tg/ stuff in a relatively civil way till you chose to complain about literally nothing.

You start at sl1
While in the other clsses you start at least sl14
You always start with either 100 or 90 total points but no other class starts at sl1
Which is why Deprived is the best class

he's not a knight, he's a taxi service.

>exposed thighs and head
the "cloth" there is supposed to be chain mail, pretty sure
>head
he just set "hide headgear" in the mmo options menu

Attached: 1525499949595.png (320x268, 71K)

He ain't knighting shit. Most of the time he's only being a portal service and bodyguard for elves.

Yeah this basically, but my point was pertaining to young adult fiction being allowed on Yea Forums despite being despised and Light novels and manga being hated on Yea Forums despite have near equivalent plots as far as fiction is concerned.
That and the second thing you said is true, you can't talk about any new fiction without someone bringing up old fiction and telling you why their dead author is 100x better and reading anything written post a certain date is retarded.

Doesn't he use a greatsword and heavy armor?
That's close enough to a knight

either newfag or expertly crafted bait

I fucked that up I meant young adult being allowed on Yea Forums you know what i mean, i think they make distinction not due to quality of the content but the source of the material, which is weird because you can talk about "good novels" like journey to the west or the three kingdoms and people won't autistically sperg at you. not too much at least.

>expertly crafted
>two replies

it's easier to self insert as a hero as opposed to a villain for most people i guess?
Even isekai mcs like naofumi and HEINZ OWL GAL, are portrayed as being wronged or threatened before they go full edgelord on you.
it could also be that it's very hard to right a unrepentant killer as the protagonist and keep him interesting or sympathetic to the average reader, it's why you make your villains worse normally in stories, like for example
The hero can own slaves, IF he treats them well.
or The hero can murder someone extremely violently and brutally IF the person he is killing "deserves it".
here is a pity you

Quit linking to a site that makes you fill out captchas just to read manga.

I've never had to fill out a captcha to read shit on there, but where do you read manga user. fuck captcha

>dynamic IP
pleb

Right now you're on a site that forces you to fill out captchas or pay to post.

Yeah, don't read your manga there, do it in the other sites that steal its translations and are the reason you need to fil out captcha in the first place.

>Quit linking to a site that makes you fill out captchas just to read manga.

Doesn't happen to me. Maybe you live in a third-world country.

You can get around that with a captcha pass.

You are under a big misunderstanding. They usally are edgy dark overlords, but simply constantly invent petty reasons for why they have been wronged.

You can tell japan is still an asian country by the absolute lack of morals in the MCs.

Thats pretty tame compared to the usual chink murderhobo.

he doesn't use the sword much. He even got another magic sword only to modify it to a spear

When it comes top a lack of morality in an isekai, buying slaves is on the lower end.

Does it even matter when he never actually exploits the slaves and they are ultimately better off being under his care?
If anything, I wish we got an actual slaver MC, he could be like an edgier version of Lawrence from Spice and Wolf.

Have you tried slavemancer? All he ever does is jizz all over girls to enslave them.

>get teleported to a world where magic exists
>don't learn magic
???????????????????

I read that but he doesn't really do much to his slaves other than fuck them and it annoyed me how everyone acted like a generic harem and he was depicted as a heroic good guy when the first chapter establishes he kidnapped and brainwashed those girls.
It feels like the author was too much of a pussy to write an actual slavemancer story so he switched to a generic battle harem shit after like 3 chapters.

Magic is an abomination.

There's always magic knight or something.

lol, the abolute state of americans

Sometimes magic requires some sort of innate talent.
Logically, it should take tears of study and effort to become proficent at it and yet in most stories every faggot can learn a million spells with barely any effort.

Magic is heresy, user.

I remember another one, but I don't know if it was isekai. The MC was basically some overpowered piece of shit and when he went to school there was some job crystal thingie that showed him the jobs he could potentially be in the future. He had the options to either be a hero, demon lord or slave trader and because he didn't want to stand out he picked slave trader.

Maria the Virgin Witch had bits of this in it however 15th century large scale combat wasn't it's main focus.

Rightfully, the people with the best armor had better chances of living and most of the deaths happened to civilians and dudes in just gambesons with spears

And sometimes it doesn't.
Your highschool knowledge of physics is literally worth more than 90% of the shit people who are living in the middle ages could come up with.
Your average peasant can't even read and has trouble doing basic math. You are literally a genius compared to them.

If martial arts give you supernatural powers then you are just a fag using a different type of magic.

You need to find some really passionate animators who give a shit to even bother doing this consistently for a show.

I don't know what story he's talking about but it's a pretty logical choice considering that the dude probably didn't know much about the world, and the chances are that picking the other two options have a pretty high chance of unfavorable things happening to him.

that's what you get for putting everything into STR

Why go to a prostitute when you can just buy a sex slave instead?

He's struggling for money.

Clearly those people aren't big on buying milk when they can buy the cow.

well you don't have to provide basic needs for the prostitute, it's cheaper if you're just looking to get off and go on with your life
