Monster no Goshujin-sama

[amatsunagi]

Lily character design is just what I imagined her to be, well, close~ ^^
Futabasha Monster is more fervent than MFbooks... and that's kind of bad on my wallet orz

Kind of surprised that Mana is using a shield, or maybe I just forgot about it

If I'm not mistaken, Takahiro only gives Mana a shield and no weapons because he doesn't trust "humans".

[amatsunagi]

Guess I miss that little fact, I thought he didn't give her anything at all (I should re reread the first part), and have Rose stick with her, or in another words, watch her.

[Okashira]

Whoa, amazing....

Spoiler for 29~30:

The last stretch of chapters have been amazing, the bonding between "friends" have been great, and the betrayals and deception have been equally good if not even better. It's wonderul how the series hinted that there is the presence of a "maoh like" villain being that humany has to battle, to later disprove that and show us again how the only evil of the world, is the one in the heart of men.

Silane, the talented knight captain who believed on Takahiro, and who Takahiro was tilted towards believing after several bonding experiences; who was even hinted to be his human "ally" and had the possibility of greatly healing Takahiro's trust issues; was brutally murdered while helping Takahiro and fighting off one of the enigmatic antagonist which was kept under warps until the latest reveals.

While Takahiro and his family are no match for the antagonist, Silane raises as a zombie and starts eating the arm of who killed her in a successful "surprise attack"; after realizing that as a ghoul, Silane is an "special existence" among ghouls with great magic power; Takahiro further stretched his deduction pointing out that she awakened as a ghoul when her grand-daughter was about to be killed. Reading that there is an intention in her actions even though she has lost her sanity; Takahiro decides to reach towards Silane's heart and purposely tries to use his "tame skill" for the first time (all of the previous captures, where basically accidental).

The current chapter ends as he makes his resolve, and when he realizes that his ability works the best, the closer he is; thus he needs to perform hand contanct on the raging Silane.

If I'm reading this right, apparently the book version added more "Lily perspective" bits.

[Kioras]

From what has been posted, a lot of the novels added needed fleshing out for the characters and tightened up the story a bit.

Did Takahiro just dump Kato Mana off when they got to a human settlement/safe area, or did he learn to at least trust her slightly?

Spoiler:

The original plan was to have Mana, Takahiro and Lily sneak into a human patrol that they bumped into, and see if they can leave Mana safely in the human settlement. Ayame decided to tag along in replacement of Gerbera, after sensing her uneasiness; and Asalina apparently can't separate from Takahiro without dying, so those 2 are forced to tag along; Ayame is travelling in a "cavity" that Lily made in her torso big enough for her.

When they were fine tuning the details of the plan after spotting the humans, the lead of the patrol (it was Silane, right?) noticed that "there it was something in the woods" and called out; Takahiro realized that they had to move out, but when he called to Mana, she crouched down and started trembling, almost crying; only able to blurt out apologies to Takahiro--- who asked Rose to take her along with the forest group (Gerbera & Rose).

So yeah, Mana's distrust of "humans" is perhaps stronger than Takahiro's; and while Takahiro and Mana distrust each other, they can more or less "act civil" with each other as long as no serious topic pops up (like the relying in each other).

It's hinted that just as Lily has been healing Takahiro to some extent, Rose has been doing so with Mana; Rose and Mana's one on one conversations are among the highest points in the series, they are always incredibly interesting; psychologically Mana is probably the most able memember of the cast, she always points out important things and can destruct her opponent's logic / arguments if necessary (it stopped a losing fight once); and some of that has been rubbing into Rose.

Spoiler for :

After what Mana went through I'm not surprised that she has those trust issues but it's good that she can at least talk civilly with Takahiro and she's getting help from Rose.

BTW is the current antagonist one of the transported earthlings, or some natives do have Abilities (cheats) as well ? And were there other students like MC unlocked their not-so-obvious cheat abilities after the Fall of Colony mess ?

Spoiler for from what i understood from MT:

the enemy has some version of monster control ability, though different one from what MC uses, may be temporary mass control without familiar bonds

Well, to begin with, since the poor girl is completely dependent from him in the monsterland, she doesn't really have option to afford herself to be bitchy.

[amatsunagi]

@kioras:
and added more content to reach the quota of the book~

@Trikr:

Spoiler:

The antagonist name (for now) is Juumonji Tatsuya, a member of exploration group. He is targeting the other cheat students, get stronger so that he may attain the ability that can return him back to Earth. Sakaue Kouta works along with him (he is a bit reluctant), who has the ability to "lure monster to him". He doesn't directly control the monster, but let the other monster, "with intelligence" to do it. and by the way, Elf Ghoul or maybe Elf Lich? now that's new to me...

Speaking off, I'm kinda interesting on some bits....

Spoiler:

Didn't Takahiro suspected that there is at least a 3rd malicious evil party? Someone with a communication ability who set the fundations to the plan from long before Sakaue got to the fort? It's been only 3 days after his arrival; it's kinda far fetched to think the plan was designed in that time.

I'm already looking forward to zombie Elf moe; I wonder if they can do something about her skin, after all she already has "rotten zombish traits" (though that's even better from my perspective )..... Speaking of, since her original name doesn't have anything to do with flowers, I wonder if we are going to bump into a development where she loses the memories of her life, and is in need of a new identity / self; after all if she merely regains what she lost, she'll have "too little trauma" to properly fit with the group.

I really, really hope that she gets tamed, while failing here would be an interesting "emotional weight" to be added to Takahiro's party, since Silan's presence is strong I want her to get into the group, specially since she has "grand-mother but call me onee-san" aura; let alone skills and proficiences no other named character has, so far.

[thatoneguy]

hey this looks like a really good novel and i am going to read it later today or tomorrow but can someone give me an idea on how fast the translations are

[El Rue]

Finally caught up with te latest chapter. Definitely an interesting read...updates kinda' random though huh?

Looking forward to that as well. I always did like her from her introduction. Her presence and overall personality really helped in fixing his trust issues as well. Oh, but wait...

Spoiler:

Rotten zombish traits? Didn't she regenerate all of those back to normal as well since it seems to be one of her new undead monster powers?

If successful, will she be an Undead Elven Sword Mage I guess? Maybe she'll keep her spirit contract limit break too. Still, at the very least he can bring her back to sanity (Although being undead will bring certain troublesome issues in the future huh).

Flower name huh...what flowers are related to Elves, ghouls, or death & rebirth?

marigold, acacia, chrysanthemums and to a certain extent, cypress, lily as well as rose ... I'm personally have more favor on Acacia since it represent both life and death.

[nacer666]

Isn't silane the little girl's aunt?

[Okashira]

Mikihiko : A guy looking extremely tired in the morning, with a girl in the same room.... Cou- Could this be that legendary "Last night was wonderful" (<- female voice) moment!?

Takahiro : I'm weak on cold mornings, you should know of this already.

Mikihiko : Ah. Certainly. Tahahaha. My bad.... But, Takahiro coming up with that non-chalant refutal; doesn't that mean that I hit the mark, Mizushima-san?

Mizushima : E? Ah, Hn.----- What should I say now? Fufu.

Mikihiko : SUS ・ PI ・ CIO ・ US!? She is happy I asked!

Obviously there it was some tentacle rape going on, during the previous night I didn't added some bits about Miki raging about not having such experience with who he likes, and I'm a little bit unsure about the last line.



Silan / Silane (still not sure on how to type this ) Is Kei / Kay's grandmother, I think? The little loli elf just calls her nee-sama, Takahiro's party killed her older brother group after they turned into ghouls, and Silan mentioned something in the lines of "it's a knight's disgrace to live off as a undead, and turn against your comrades".

I'm pretty sure he writes on a "xx pages per day" schedule; if it's "time to update" and he has enough for two chapters he throws 2, and if it's "time to update" and he has less pages than what he wants for that chapter, he delays the "time to update"..... At least that the impression I got so far.

.... Basically I got the feeling that if he delays something a lot, we'll be compensated by lenght and lots of interesting stuff inside.

[amatsunagi]

Spoiler:

The plan may already stand since the time the colony is still around. worse, the destruction of the colony is part of the plan, and some people ride on it just to reap it's benefit like Juumonji here.

Silane is too old to be aunt (even if she is, and an elf on top of that) thus nee-sama is more appropriate.

The update is weekly unless the author is delayed by RL works, around Sunday or Monday . The time switch to the next day if it's delayed, so it might be Tuesday for 3 weeks and if delayed again, turn into wednesday. The publication also (may) increase the motivation, notice that Shinka no Mi is getting updated recently due to green light, and the same thing can happen to this one.

[El Rue]

^^ Thanks for the update info & scene translation, that was fun.

I think she is Kay's aunt of great aunt or something (well, they talk & act more like sisters anyway). They were related to one those ghouls? He did ask if they knew them & I thought it was only as fellow soldiers. Not sure but from what I can make out it seemed Kay's parents were one of the casualties of their frontier village? (or is it all the inaccurate info's in my head just merging messily)

Oh, If all goes well, Rose will probably become a life size Rozen Maiden eh? But you know, with an axe instead of frilly clothing.

[Kaito Yamakage]

This series....is hard to rate...

The story is good, though I hate how often they just break off in 2-5 chapter discussions in the middle of emergency situations. The monologue circles back and forth and stretches on forever. At some point I just started speed reading through the 6-7 paragraph blocks between each line of dialogue and I'm pretty sure I caught all the important detail.

It's not like those blocks of text were particularly detail heavy or story important, they were literally just "should I go left, or was right better, no maybe left is the best, but then in common psychology right is said to be the best?, maybe I should flip a coin?" Then if you were to write 8 paragraphs based on those thoughts that's kind of what I felt like I was reading at times.

Still the rest of it was good enough to put up with that... just a bit of a headache at times, but otherwise up to current good story.

Spoiler for 30:

Shilan about to become a member of his family. Juumonji is about to die, Sakagami is a pawn, fear dat Big Berta. They did mention the Queen rank monsters above High ones a while back.

Somehow I don't really feel satisfied though... both of those two ^ better die within the next few chapters.

Hmmm.... For what I remember, Silane was pretty surprised when she saw the rings, then she mentioned that even if it was the rings only; it was fine, because there is people behind that as long as they don't know for sure, are waiting for news. During the funeral Takahiro mentioned that she was a little bit too emotinally invested in the funeral, and eventually she looked grim and started speaking about her older brother.... this is a funeral, right? Didn't she even properly mention that now it's only Kei and herself now, or did she not? So I just assumed the worse and read into by adding 1 + 1.... I Might be wrong, since I'm taking implied events as granted?

One thing about this series is that "nothing happens". There is so far no "greater objective to fulfill"; Takahiro has taken like close to 30 chapters to see if the fort is decent enough to drop Mana there, and when it comes to battles hasn't most of the characters fought only once on what, 3 or 4 books worth of content?

Having "nothing going on" is irrelevant, and perhaps it helps as it's all about the character portrayal and interactions and their worries; which sometimes gives us some pretty fun conversations or build a pretty good ambiance..... Like, when Takahiro arrived to the fort, the reader could literally touch Takahiro's distrust and doubts--"You better get out of there NOW", I kept thinking; which was compelling at the time.

But of course, there is what you mentioned, since the character perspective is given too much weight; there are times where urgence is more than needed, but instead we get rougly 5 pages of characters presenting their stand on the obvious (Rose can somehow made this not look so bad, but even then this isn't good)..... I wonder if they are going to change some places where this is too bad that in the final book version? I mean, there is an editor advice there.

I get this feeling that a big chunk of the charm of the series is going to decay once Takahiro gains a proper "greater objective" and starts chasing after it, btw.
