is her dad the skinny or round type?

Warrior type. He was a former adventurer.
Eh? That's Liz? That doesn't look like Liz. I thought it was Emilia again.
The impression of her doesn't match... so was with the elf
None of the illustrations match the characters... shite
She's supposed to be more emotionless and gloomy

Yeah, I had a similar reaction (minus the Emilia part). Was only able to figure out it was Liz because blue hair and the fact vol 2 is supposed to cover magic academy.
Does anyone know some good machine translation softwares? I really want to read this but i don't know japanese

D'aaww, Noel oneechan in her wedding dress...and yet still no illustration of Dee. Da' hell man?
You know, I always imagined Emilia's tail to be...bigger & fluffier. But small & cute is fine too.
And a certain blue haired lady w/ a healthy appetite finally appears. Those uniforms can really hide their figures well huh.
sigh~
while the illustration's out, Imma kinda hoping if the TL came out as well. Fast.
Sigh~
It still bugs me that the artist has to draw them as teens on the cover when all the inside art is them being children still.
Its called "In medias res".
Since I fell so far behind on this and I'd forgotten so many of the smaller details, I decided to read this from the beginning again...and got two surprises. First one was a change in a scene back when Sirius first met Fia (shooting a wyvern instead of a random rock when showing off his gun magic).
The second... A chapter that was released in commemoration of vol 1 of the LN being released that goes with the ending of the volume, Erina's death. Made the feels come back up again even though I knew it was all coming. T^T
Eww, I took a look at the latest raw chapter and it's the usual Sirius rejecting girl into his harem again. Only Reus' harem keep increasing. So shitty.

....That's STILL going on? Gosh dammit, the author needs to stop with that nonsense. I mean, I can understand not wanting too many girls in your harem, but the author needs to stop writing scenes that lead up to that in that case.

It's stuff like that that makes me wish publishers waited until a novel was almost complete before jumping in there. So many start out good then go to shit near the end. This one doesn't even look like it's ending anytime soon, and the author seems to have forgotten what the point of this novel was.
If they'd wait then authors could flesh out their ideas without the pressure. Kumo's been on hiatus for almost a month, and I can't help think it because the author doesn't want screw up the proceedings for the LN. Especially with the published volumes coming out so fast. *sigh*
I have pointed that out in narou's comment section and the author replied :
Normal girls won't get interested in Sirius because he's "too special". Normal girls are afraid of him so no matter how cool he acts, they won't change their minds.
........but they all got interested in generic type protagonist that is Reus then? .........all right.......

so it's like (or rather is) there are two harem protags in this story ... one will collect special girls (in limited quantity and good/high quality) while the other collects the normal/generic/usual girls (in large quantity but low quality) . . . .

That's what the author thought....
But that's wrong... hell wrong...
In Sirius' harem, only Liz is special. Both in her origin and personality. Fia is just a choroi elf and Emilia is too much Sirius' worshipper rather than interesting. Only Liz has refreshing personality and took a long time to dere. On top of that, she's a hidden princess so relationship with her might open new possibilities in this novel. Fia and Emilia may have better looks, but it's a novel anyway, personality is more important.
Compared to that, Reus' harem are Noel's daughter, Noir, who's so cute (not because she's loli(I'm no lolicon)) and her family is fun. Also Marina, a tsundere kyuubi, who's the sister of Sirius' disciple, and a noble, governor's family of port city. Their personality is better than Emilia and Fia.
There're also great girls that "magically" not thinking Sirius cool despite being saved greatly along with her kingdom. Like a holy maiden who fell for a slave boy despite Sirius saving the city (ugh I hate this arc, slave just stood there like an idiot), a noble girl, a magician enemy girl, and a spy.
Unbelievable....
Author should just stop introducing more girls/heroine material at this point....

I know, right?
So I pointed that out again
and author said he can't help it! he loves writing love story! (crappy one at that)
The problem is that love story doesn't involve the protagonist!
One or two times is fine, but all arcs so far involve love story! Other's Love Story! With a better heroine! FUCK ME, RIGHT!?
The result is set in stone, so no matter how excellent Sirius' performance is, the girls still choose their hetare boy.
seem like he want to describe Sirius as a boy w a mental of an old man but chose the most crappy way to do it :)))
I know, right?

Sounds to me like the author doesn't know how to properly respect a story. If he wants to write love stories, do it elsewhere, in this novel where it'll just convulute things.

unless the author himself is self-inserting himself as Reus . . .
Well... to be honest...
These acts of matchmaking are actually the real theme, the true plot of this novel
Unbelievable, I know
But do you remember the title of this novel?.....WORLD TEACHER.....
So yes...
Those hetare boys? They are Sirius' disciples. Not so much as Reus, but they were also taught a thing or two and consider him their teacher. So it's all about helping your students to bang their dream girl. That's what it's all about.
The perfect ideal of this novel is to have a lot of riajuu students all over the world. Then they all will exalt Sirius' name to posterity. This is the original goal of this novel. Things with his own harem are only secondary. So if you expect this trend to stop, then, well, you're out of luck.
well, he's a teacher alright XD
what are you expected
Personally, I wouldn't have minded them having their own harem as long as they did something to truly deserve the girls falling in love with them, howerer it is just the typical harem where the heroines just fall in love for anything they do or even nothing at all (wait, actually it is worse, since there is another character who did a lot more for them yet was just ignored).
I really miss the rare harems where the protagonist has to do a lot for them to win the horeines affection, to the point where it would be stranger if they didn't love him.

Ryuuhou is fairly close to what you're looking for. MC had to go through a lot of trials in order to be together with the main heroine (such as clearing this trial in his training or the engagement is off) and the main heroine even told him become a man that'll make all of them fall for him.

yeah, this is the precise the problem i have with the WT at the moment, i actually have question that what the hell make them worth the girl's affections. The supposedly MC of the author love story couldn't get anymore useless. yes, they are downright useless, not just hetare.
Erotora, help me transmit to the author since i don't have Shosetsu account that: " frankly,You should give us the reason why anyone would even fall in love with those useless guys - was the moral of the story is that if one want to get a girl, one should exploit Sirius as much as possible ???"
Seriously, the story at this point is just some useless kids exploiting Sirius.
^Heh, I already asked that :D
In the previous page I already mentioned about how Sirius is so special that girls won't fall for him
In the end it's all about "fate" or "script" lol. Author made several separate stories and inserting Sirius group into it. Ultimately those stories are standalone, Sirius group just guests that solve the problem, then leave. Like old animes like Kino no Tabi or Mushishi, episodic animes, which the MC will leave and then all those characters appearing in that arc forgotten. I hate episodic animes.

Damn Author, I hope he writes more character development episodes to save the story a little(also, back it up). My enthusiasm for this one plummeted when you guys mentioned that the author just cannoning girls one after another -___-
Well, it's a good thing I put it on pending after the tournament arc then. Seems like it goes downhill from there on.
Maybe I'll read it again, when it finished.

I have just read all the available translation for this series, but before I get pretty much disappointed just like I was with the harem ending of Mushoku Tensei. Honestly, the harem thing is okay for as long as the MC finally chose a heroine and did not end up with the harem ending. Harem ending is kind of a disappointment for me
Is this series still good and meet up to my expectation of the novel I'm looking for(see spoiler above for it)?
Honestly I like the 31 chapters of them so far... I've been into these reincarnation stories where the MC starts out from infant while retaining their past life memories.

well there might finally be a 4th or there possibly was already a 4th candidate.
a kemomimi loli princess that was poisoned when she was young...... resulting in her being pretty much blind with how terrible her vision ended up.
she also has a natural charm ability, so shes pretty much an idol...... even works on monsters.
there was a extra omake bit (doesn't seem like it will happen but possible) at the end where she asks to join the harem.
and with the start of this new arc......
a 5 yr old winged (also has 1 wing smaller than the other) loli has been saved. (can use the first time he met the twins for her appearance)
anyway she was in a barrel or whatever, covered in a liquid that attracts monsters.
the people dumped her for whatever reason on them.
^I read that. Loli called him Onii-chan and he is her tutor. But no guarantee she will be a haremette. And considering the time progression, very unlikely we will see her grow and join the harem except maybe at the very end.

^Umm, your sentence is kinda hard to understand...
Basically he doesn't stand out coz he let his disciples take the spotlight
His harem basically stops at 3 (4 with loli to be future waifu?) and most of the time matchmaking other people.

^^Sorry, i'm lacking in english knowledge.
What I mean is, if he doesn't want to stand out or raise suspicion, I think this doesn't work when you are surrounded by influential and powerful people.
I want to know if he stay like that or he does something in front the common public.
Because, is like having a black dot(MC) between white dots(MCF) within a "insert your color preference" background(NPC).

There's no one like that around him though?
His harem is basically nobodies.
All the princesses were taken by other guys.
And no, he's not hiding his power or trying to stay low. He's quite often showing his strength to public. Yet, because of bad writing, he remained unknown either way.

^Ok, thanks for the answer, i don't like a MC who try to hide his power all the time.
This is something that has been puzzling me in different novels. Can I ask why you (and certain people) don't like MCs to hide their power? You want them to show off or something?
^
From my pov, in a world where the power ("physical" or the divine energy in that world) has a true value, why you keep so passive?, that allows others instigate you and your environment. Show power (any kind) it's to exhibit the capacity of one, to support their actions and words, thats is a rule in RL, when and how much also affects.
show not bluffing.
ej.
In the anime like Mob, because he is passive, others want to go against him although he is more powerful. It's like a beta MC who allow others to ntr his lover, for fear.
I can't remember wn where the MC hava a deply discussion about this, beyond "oh, show too much attract the royal or whathever you want. oh, show too little will attract bugs"

^Kyureki is right
He was a retired agent, called back for a mission then died
No, I'm pretty sure I'm thinking of the right story. Sirius was retired from active duty and was an instructor for the next generation. He was only doing that job at the beginning of the story because it was needed for his friend to get his promotion or something. Also, I recall it was mentioned at one point that the age gap between the female disciple, who was his first disciple and adopted daughter, and him was about enough for him to be her grandpa.

He was, without any doubt, a retired from service gramps in the web novel....... They couldn't have changed that in the published version to appeal to the general audience, hmn? I'm not emotionally invested enough to check any preview prolog on the official website to corroborate this.
Having an ex-gramps was like the, only hook this series had from the get go.... and well..... It's not like the MCs age was properly represented in the writing style or anything (rather, I thought he had way too many desires for a supposed hard working non hentai jiji, and it's even worse that his desires aren't really the basic earthly ones).
I mean, the only old man thing he ever did was drinking Tea with Raioul? I can't really remember.

It's not like the MCs age was properly represented in the writing style or anything (rather, I thought he had way too many desires for a supposed hard working non hentai jiji, and it's even worse that his desires aren't really the basic earthly ones).
I mean, the only old man thing he ever did was drinking Tea with Raioul? I can't really remember.
It actually got complained about many times earlier in this thread, the 1st arc was acceptible but around the end of the 1st arc people always complains "is this actually an old man and not a teenager ???" Sirius was, to put it mildly, too energetic and passionate to be an old man. It especially show during his 1st meeting with the elf and the magic practice.
f*ck that manga kill my will to read, it´s like gun ota manga.
From the way he was written, I never really got the impression that he was a grandpa. (Maybe at most 40-50 but not a 60 year old senior citizen or something)
Although, do remember that this is japanese media, where the general rule is that if your 30 years old & beyond, your already an "old" man/woman. :heh:

Oooh, nice. The Elf principal looks way too young from the way he's told though, he looks like a fledgling by the usual elf standards.
Some of the manga artwork for some characters on certain angles kills motivation a bit...although Noel is huggably cute.
^Noel and other girls with more interesting personality got taken by other guys lol~
The fight with elf headmaster was amazing... That's why it's sad coz later development is disappointing
Too bad everything in this novel's scale is so small...
Such wasted potential...
^ Indeed. With the exception of Hokuto, this novel completely sputtered out after the school arcs. :/
^Many people in Narou, me included, have been trying to suggest things to author to no avail...
Like for example, do you guys realize that nobles here don't have peerage?
Like earl, baron, etc. No, they are just nobles, and nobles are bad, that's it.
It's not because the setting is unique so no peerage, but because the author is lazy.
Also the initial setting of Sirius being a noble's bastard, you'd think it'll mean something, but it got abandoned so early. Wasted potential.
The noble's bastard thing felt more like it was just to cement why he doesn't have any real blood-related family.
^
That's why wasted potential, abandoned setting. If this were Kuroneko, everything relates to everything.
Later Sirius will meet royalties, right? His origin might open new possibilities then, but just forgotten.
The school arc also could be better. Most schoolmates remained nameless. Also after leaving the school no reunion so everything about the school is basically forgotten. Abandoned setting again.
It's just so episodic you know...
Not to mention all later episodic arcs are about helping others to become a couple... Yuck...

pretty sure it's just the author being lazy, when you thinks back about it, WT's world building is actually rather bad, and things just pop out in the story, infact, i think that the story started showing problem in the school arc, at the end of the school arc, things just go straight downhill

2016-12-07, 07:25
^ Dropping it right after the school arc sounds to be the best thing to do with this story. Given the spoiler's I've read, a significant amount of what he does from now (around where the translations are) on is collect his harem and a few additional followers, before "helping" (doing most of the work required to give) his male followers build harems of their own. He also gains a reputation as a teacher... one that's probably being drowned out by his "students" (his, but he's hiding his involvement) achievements.
Basically, if you want the MC to be recognised for their achievements, this isn't the story for you. If you want the MC's achievements to mean something to the plot, this isn't the story for you. If you want the MC to get all the girls he helps, this isn't the story for you. If you want the MC to showcase to the world that his seemingly "useless" magic typing isn't actually useless, and can be powerful in the right hands, this isn't the story for you.
Who is this story for? No idea.
^What he said.
In the first place, this novel is abandoning settings quickly, too quickly...
Remember MC's backstory as a noble's bastard? Abandoned.
Remember how MC invented some magic devices as a source of income? Abandoned.
Remember the fun(lol) school days? Abandoned.
Somewhere along the way, the author realized his original purpose to make a "teacher". So then he kept adding these disciples and their lover/harem and how the teacher/MC helped to join them together. But even those disciples just got abandoned later lol :heh:
Windsgrace
2016-12-07, 08:22
^ Woah which disciples get abandoned? The ones that will be added later on or the ones that he currently has? I mean if his attendants/ disciples leave him I will be sad...
^Err... Disciples beside Reus are like monster of the week kinda thing
Adventure to a place -> Meet new disciple -> Help him get a girl -> Depart -> Adventure to a new place -> Repeat ad infinitum and past be forgotten
Well, there's a chance they might re-appear, but let's be fair, nobody cares about those 1 dimensional characters :heh:

I don't think that wuhugm considers her a disciple, and instead considers her a wife. He has his, what, 3?, wives, and singular long-term disciple (Wind-Spirit-Elf, Wind-Dog-Girl, Water-Spirit-Girl & Fire-Dog-Boy).

i wouldn't say this has potential, like my post above, the world building in WT is actually rather bad, i don't think we ever heard the name of the city or people beside the MC's group and those interact with them, WT selling point from the beginning was always the fact that the MC is an old man, but that selling point faded around the school arc, where many people complain that he is too teenager. Beyond the school arc, the weak world building problem start to come straight out in your in your face, new location, city, events,.... just suddenly pop out without any indication or mentioning. You would imagine he should knew at least something about the capital or stuff, but it just pop out.
What's next is the weak character, or like Erotora said, Disciples of the week. Frankly, due to their sudden appearance, people just treat them like plot device for Sirius to do something, they are precisely what you would refer as villager A, B C... and the fact that they are downright useless kick it down further. The disciples just pop up suddenly and their story ended just as suddenly make people cannot related to them at all, and the fact that they practically contributed nothing just make it bad
^Hahaha~ Spot on~
I said this before, but actually some time ago I asked the author about several things :
1. World details, like geographical details and why nobility has no peerage.
2. Why the disciples' "girl" don't fall in love with Sirius (MC) despite MC clearly being way cooler and helped her thousand times greater than the disciple himself?
His answers were :
1. Too convoluted and distracting.
2. Author likes romance stories and just want to cram as much as possible into the story, but don't want to radically alter the story itself. So it took form into those episodic disciple stories.
When I read that, I know the author is long gone and beyond salvation.

Does anyone here know how the LN version compares to the WN, and what changes were made? Maybe the author was able to fix/rewrite the faults that Erotora found with the WN, and might even put in LN-original arcs that revisit interesting plot settings, like the MC's bastard noble heritage (I'm sure the author's editor won't tolerate his laziness to put in details). Besides, aren't the LNs still covering the authors's school days arc?
PS. The art for the World Teacher manga sucks so much compared to the LN art.

He really is half-hearted MC. He don't want anyone. For example another MC in his place got himself 3+ girls with him as his servants (at least).
He really is the agent in heart, always wanted to teach somebody.

wuhugm has talked with the Author, and they're not interested in improving the story. If it does get improved, it wouldn't be due to the Author but the Editor. And I suspect that the Editor won't bother telling the Author to actually improve his story when it goes from "low quality, but what's expected" to "MC gets girls for other people because why the *ell not, of the week".

Numbers don't matter
Problem is the fixed heroines are planned from the very beginning, when Author was very much amateur. The female characters created later just for being distributed to disciples overshadow the heroines is such an unfunny joke.

But can a LN series work with a fixed heroine from the beginning?
Take for example, the Rakudai Kishi series, where the author set a fixed ship from the beginning with Ikki (MC) x Stella. Excluding his sister, there are other girl characters but none of them are ever shown as falling in love with the MC.

Toradora, Golden Times, Omae no Otaku and etc. This LN has a fixed ship.
I mean, isn't MC a baka that he wants just three girls. This is just cliche, like in Gun-Ota.

The problem here is that the author introduces new girls with better history than the previous ones and give them to side chars, like wtf? The MC does all the work and a random dude gets the girl.
If he didnt want the MC to increase the harem, dont make better heroines and give them away, thats simple, right? But the author did it at least 3 times.
Oh, come on... Unless the author really plans for it XD
At least someone with worst record can be a best record. If you see the prologue itself, he have three apprentice much like he have three wives here.

The manga's likely adapting the LN, which in turn has likely been rewritten from the WN. Either the editor wanted changes, or the author just wanted to rewrite the scene.
I've heard the manga's been blazing through the WN content.
That's inevitable. Manga artists have to do more than double the amount of work as an LN artist, in the same time-frame, and manga art is more repetitive, so your character designs need to be a bit less detailed.
True. Which is why I always admire the manga adaptations whose artists put a lot of effort into making the design and settings look as clean and professional as possible.
So far, the art for the mangas of Knights and Magic, Choujin Koukousei tachi and Isekai Yakkyoku have been the better ones I've seen, IMO.

If his plan was to lose readers, he did a good job. If he didnt want people to complain, it was just a matter of not making the new heroines far better than his wives.
In a way, i put this WN in the same group with 'Sono Mono. Nochi ni' where the author didnt know how to keep up with the WN and its success and screwed up.

One question. What is the MC background? Not the assasin in the former life but his reincarnated life. He claims to be a commoner, but clearly he had to be from a noble family based on the house and maids he had. Plus they showed the mother but not the father.

No seriously. The bad world building was there before. But when random countries and group starting popping out and we have absolutely no idea they even existed. It kinda avoid this before since the story is Sirius centric rather than moving in larger scale making the issues neglectable but when the author try to wove new character in as center. It come out hard

Author said they didn't care about it because worldbuilding was too difficult for them to handle.

Too complicated for the author so nothing done about it
Still popular anyway smh
Japanese readers don't question things it seems
Unfortunately, the majority of Japanese who read LN turn their brains off when reading them. :/

I'd say WN rather than LN, most LN board i gone once in a while are actually pretty critical towards books
^ Fair enough. I haven't been reading many LN lately, much less seen much discussion about them, so I'm not exactly a proper judge of that.

Interestingly, World Teacher ranks 38th place according to this Narou ranking guide.

I've heard it tends to be quite difficult for most WN authors, esp the new ones, to break into the upper 100s of the ranks.
Compared to this however, Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi/ とんでもスキルで異世界放浪メシreally takes the cake for being able to shoot up to 7th place in nearly 2 years from starting in 2016. The fact that it's only about the SOL-adventures of a somewhat cowardly isekai'd guy (with above-average tier cooking skills) and his dominant fenrir-beast companion tells you what Narou's readerbase likes.

Because it isn't new ??? i mean, WT begin fairly early and managed to ride the wave of Isekai in it's very peak, with MT still ongoing and at it's most popular period ? and like i said before, WT selling point from the start was the fact that MC is an old man, which is actually pioneer the genre of old man travel. And the early part was popular, until the school arc where issues start to appear. It still stood there. If anything, it only stood 38th despite still ongoing is calling on it's issues. Remember many books above have already completed and will get less vote than ongoing books

I think it's more like they supplement/fill the gaps apparent in the author's faults by the common knowledge somewhat shared by other prominent strong works of the same genre. Authors that fail in world building like this one depend on their target audience being this type of reader since their work can't stand on its own. Someone new to the genre would be extremely turned off by works like this.

I think Nidome no Jinsei may have started the old man isekai though.
Checking each Syosetu release, Nidome started in January 2014.
World Teacher started in June 2014.

I'd be very surprised if WT's LN editor didn't at least address this issue with the author when WT was picked for publishing, even though the author doesn't like it. Even Death March's author said in their afterwords they had to rewrite a lot of the original WN content to make sure his work could be accessed by a bigger, more casual target audience unfamiliar with Narou cliches.

It is still among the pioneers, Nidome and WT was early in the era of Isekai itself, and the "old man" genre is not explored at that time, it is in 1 or 2 years later we would actually see how other's work peered into this genre. Again, WT lucked out a lot for being one of the early works and niche genre at the time, try putting in the current years and works like Shikaku mon would easily stomp it. WT ran out of steam once it old man trait start to disappear. Since it's the story sole selling point.

Because of their respective publishers and potential expectation ??? Death March was popular back in Narou and it's was fairly off-stream from the common Isekai, it is the same for Re: Zero, they have chance to make it big, and the Editors make it so. Consider Kadokawa and Overlap, I'd say their expectation is different. Editors work differently in different labels, Alphapolis for once actually rarely change anything in WN. And there is also differences between each series even in the same publishers, you can't expect the same treatment for every books if their expected sales is not spectacular. And WT is fairly midway even during it's WN time with the popularity wave.

I do enjoy reading the the manga
You might not enjoy the manga for much longer. It's getting close to the long downhill of the things many people in this thread complained about that made them drop this series.

The series used to be great but now it's super boring..... I even removed this from my bookmark.
LN Vol 13 came out in July 2020; looks like the LNs are still doing well in Japan.

WN is still being written, although updated rather slowly than before. (Author says they are having a bit of writer's block trying to string things together.)
Interestingly, this is still the author's one and only WN. (Considering their peers usually write more than 1 WN to diversify their bibliography.)
