Just finished chapter 4, oh man that was a really good chapter.
Finally Mamako and Masato started to understand each other without going into much trouble or stretching the drama even further. There are obviously some other issues between them but their relationship is going pretty well and Mamako is reaching a point where she can understand Masato's feelings, there is a long way tho. Man that onsen scene, Mamako truly is a goddess. Ironically Wise forgive Masato from punishment after seeing her completely naked. Finally Wise's mother.... what I can say, she's a piece of shit. Now jumping right into chapter 5. ----------------------------- Ch 5 - Epilogue - Final thoughts Let's begin with the details. Wise's real name is Genya and her mother's name is Kazuno. At first after ch 4 she was really a shitty mother and not in a funny way, then on ch 5 we know what really happened. What happened here is that we were able to see both sides of the coin, one side with Mamako and the other one with Kazuno, both sharing the same feelings but in this case Kazuno lost the feeling she used to have for Wise as her daughter, something that only a mother knows and Mamako was the one who helped to remind that feeling. Loved the way how the author executed this topic because you can really understand the idea behind the final fight between Mamako and Kazuno. Every family has their own issues after all. The doubts about this first volume regarding the main point of "mother & son" relationship are completely gone, Mamako is truly a good character and Masato too I have to say, we can see how little by little their relationship improved reaching a point were we can see the difference between the beginning and the end of volume 1. Is a simple Light Novel with lots of fun, jokes and MMORPG themes related but what's more important is how good and well done is the story, especially what the whole idea of a mother brings to this story, to be honest is refreshing. What really got me this time was this part of the Epilogue, for... let's say... reasons. [Q: Will you become more intimate with your mother if you go on an adventure with her?] Before these days began, that question was asked in the survey. What answer would he have written now? “......Probably? Not like I would know.” In the end, he mumbled those words that were not different from before his adventure had begun. With a smile on his face that even he himself did not notice, Masato chased after his mother’s back. Last edited by AB079; 2017-04-24 at 16:25. |

Definitely got the resolution I really wanted between Masato and Mamako. They didn't stretch it out any longer and resolved it along with Wise's relationship with Kazuno as well.
Kazuno played a fitting role as the final demon boss, mirroring Mamako's own role as the heroic mother. The theme of a mother's unconditional love along with the inseparable bond of mother and child take center stage in the end. While Kazuno wasn't a good person to begin with, she actually became worse when she got drunk off the cheats was given and started abusing it. She still isn't a good person by the end, but I guess her relationship with Wise is better..... maybe? It makes me think how Wise interacted with her mother before. She didn't seem like one who would keep her mouth shut. The epilogue really felt like the end of the entire series, rather than the end of the first volume. Although, I wasn't quite expecting the author to fix Masato and Mamako's relationship so quickly. Thankfully, there are some loose end regarding to Porta and her mother, Shirase's own daughter, and the conspiracy between Kazuno and the outsider within the Cabinet Office. Speaking of loose ends, the ending conflict revealed some interesting information regarding the project and the outsider interfering with the project. Rather than dealing with another OP mother, the stakes in the final confrontation ended up a lot more dramatic than I would have guessed. The revelation that someone outside the project, who has ties with the Cabinet Office, was the pulling the strings behind the cheating tool and manipulating Kazuno was surprising. Not too sure how things will pan out though, now that the possibility of dying in the game was briefly mentioned by Shirase. Things are kind of ambiguous at the moment though. Obviously, players who die just turn into coffins until someone resurrects them, but apparently if the computer in which they dived into the game gets destroyed, physical harm may befall the player's body? How the heck does that work? Definitely interesting, will continue reading.
