(L) Magical★Explorer - Eroge no Sekai de Shujinkou no Yuujin ni Nattayou Dakedo

[Rinvelt]

^It's tane (seed) not mi (fruit).
Its effect is to allow the person eating it to break his limits, you don't have to reach the limits before breaking them. (you don't need to have the glass full before actually using a bigger glass, just go straight for the bigger glass)
We still don't know if the power of the seed will be enough to go through his special constitution and he'll be able to use other magics, but at least for the girls it'll show an immediate effect in them being more proficient in magics they weren't before (Healing for example for Ludy)

The talk about stats is in the game. Now it's not a game anymore, so no stats.

[wuhugm]

^^Yes, the plot is nothing special so far, except the latest arc

Kanousei no Tane ne
No stats but it was said that Kousuke character can only reach medium level

Character interaction is the best part of this novel imho, so no dungeon = good

[Asuka']

^^
Ever since Nanami join i could only feel the game world elements become stroger.
And Ayano is so suspicious, maybe she is the administrator of that world.


^
Yea, dungeon diving is so boring.
But interaction huh, author should just make him as the mc from the start. With the situation where he get all the lucky sukebe chance, there are no difference between shujinkou and sidekick.

[wuhugm]

^Yep, this is another "fake non-mc"
Same with imouto horeru
And basically all Akuyaku Reijou crap
Once the nipponjin assumes control of the "non-mc"
They become the mc for all intents and purposes

Ore no Tomodachi ga Tsuyosugirundaga <My Friend is Too Strong>, tho
That's actually friend character
The MC is a donkan harem yarou
But it also pisses me off because not much love for the friend

[Rinvelt]

^It's not really fake, it's just the premise of the story. It's a fact that the "true" Takioto Kousuke was not the MC. He only becomes one thanks to the actions of the Japanese guy who took possession of him.

Shin'yuu mob is different and you know why. So yeah, weird to say, but it's a "true fake".

[Darkwolf907]

Someone already begin translate this wn. All prologue has been translated

[Rinvelt]

TL is kinda meh, though.

[Rasty]

I quite like reading this series, but it is kind of hit and miss. The interactions are good and so is the plot, but there are lengthy boring parts (mainly dungeon crawling, and this is coming from someone who loved the first half of Kumoka). The different POVs are good, but the MC POV keeps doing the irritating trick with never explaining why he is doing things.

Also, the MC keeps getting more and more hetare (even though he is supposedly perverted and in eroge world). The actions were reasonable in the beginning, but in later chapters, he has turned into straight-up typical hetare. Also doesn't help that we don't get to know his thoughts towards the girls. Like why the hell is he not trying to further his relationship with any of them? For example, when he was giving them the seeds he could have asked for lap pillow (that he has always been rattling about) as an easy (while slightly perverted) repayment, it would actually sound much better than the cheesy lines about the amulets.

[wuhugm]

^I already posted a comment in narou a long time ago asking, "Is this even an eroge?"
Like all others, I just let this one sleeps until snu

Many novels eventually go into a development that I can't tolerate

[Garn]

I don't even remember where I stopped for the same thing but I suppose that I will not read it again yet, it can be said that from the first arc it is evident, although I may read it if there is any development with Marino (or maybe there is already one) although this is quite unlikely considering the above.

[Rinvelt]

To be honest, for some reason I just love this novel and I don't even know why.

So yeah, even if the MC is hetare, I still really enjoy myself, so not really a problem.

If I had to say, to me the problem is the release pace.

[Nymene]

Do you think this will ever be published as a Light Novel ? Would be fun to see how the character artwork might look like if it gets a good illustrator.

[wuhugm]

^I hope it does, wanna see Nanami

The dungeon part is really boring tho
I never skipped a novel before, but I skipped the dungeon parts for this one

[Greenish Growth]

I agree with you there about the dungeon. I even have "long dungeon crawl" listed on my link name.

So what have they been doing lately? I stopped reading at ch103.

[Nymene]

Guys, I think that this novel is better than the Light Novel with a similar setting known as "Yuujin kyara wa taihen desu ka".

My reason is due to the fact that in this Narou novel, which I call "MagiEro" in short, the eroge protagonist's gender stays male instead of Yuujin kyara's so-called protagonist character, which was revealed to be a female and thus a potential heroine for the so-called friend character MC.

Therefore, this Narou novel breaks the fourth wall even more as it makes it seem that the reincarnated MC is Netori-ing the potential harem members of the supposed eroge protagonist, which is something that cannot be seen in the Yuujin kyara LN, as that LN's protag character is actually a girl so she would then become the MC's heroine instead of a rival that the MC steals harem members away from.

In other words, I think that MagiEro serves as a good poetic justice for all the best friend characters that are treated like crap in most real-life existing eroge, as this one literally makes the reincarnated friend character NTR most of the potential harem members away from the supposed Eroge protag, so it gives some sort of new way of thinking or deep soul-searching for some eroge players that even hates it and calls it NTR if the MC's best friend is coupled with a female character despite that girl not being one of the 4-5 conquerable heroines.

So, in terms of going Meta and breaking the fourth wall, MagiEro does it better than Yuujin kyara. This is why I prefer Narou authors, as they are not afraid of breaking the wall and diverging from the established LN formula that the side character-turned-MC cannot steal potential harem members from a so called harem romcom protag, probably due to the editor's orders ??

[wuhugm]

^...........Yes

[Rinvelt]

Getting a LN:

Sorry; dynamic content not loaded. Reload?

[wuhugm]

^Should've put the mom on the cover, so stupid

And what is that magic on his left hand? He can't do magic tho

[Rinvelt]

He can, just that it's weak. But yeah, I agree, they shouldn't have made him use magic on the cover.

[Kyureki]

So the illustrator of Goblin Slayer and Polyphonica eh...
