ahh mate.... spite comes from the mouth, dude was in the nose...

He was Undead Snot Launched....

Even if the actions are unpleasant in various ways... to say they are not "good" is a bit backwards, but that could just be a fault of the ways the English language does not properly convey the thoughts that we have.

The methods are "bad" because of how they are normally used. Yes he lied and manipulated - the issue becomes a "grey" area type things it was those lies and manipulation that made it so Mairon (whom I am assume you are referring to as the 'blindsided good people') was able to open his mind to the possibility that his family were committing the Evils he was taught that were completely unacceptable. If that is the case then those lies and manipulations were in fact good things that helped him avoid a complete mental break from being 'blindsided' by the actual truth, as it was no longer a sudden thing.

The point of having future knowledge is the only thing that makes it quasi-acceptable; the inherent malicious nature of the actions is more or less reliant on having the final answer beforehand. This is one of those Niche situations that does not properly compare to most other situations of this nature.

It is really down to what value you are using to define "good"?...I think the major point for this: is that in the end the father basically confirmed it all, and while he was guided in ways and enabled to hear his father's words for himself. The previous actions allowed him to preserve his sanity, and reduce the overall suffering of him and the victims of his family.

It might be an over simplification but it feels like you can almost do a 1:1 comparison with this and pushing someone whom is about to be hit by a car. Pushing is bad and it could hurt them, but if you see and know they are moments from being hit by a car... the bad act of pushing becomes a good thing.

In the top down panel after the city on fire in his previous life... is It just me or did she kinda look like a Paper Airplane with a wig...

I think it has something to do with how 'Oval' shaped his facial appearance in especially the shadow of the forehead matched with the chin. The eyes have that extra slant/dimension (providing an extra angle in the visual of the eye itself) on the outside that gives makeup vibes with what looks like extra thickness. Those two things with the amount of "soft" colour and lines for the hair, skin, and background ambiance. Even the scar looks 'soft', it lacks that sun damaged; dry/leathery expectation of rough living that is typically there.

I thought the 'shadow' that was the striking vine, was just some kind of rope/divider vine she was passing under. Yeah I missed that one pretty badly. Kinda feels bad just assuming the artist was being lazy.

I should probably just go to sleep after a blunder on that level, but that was good catch on your part, well done!

I am more inclined to say a page is missing... there was no page that was a rejection(?) or showed/explained the plant starting to hit her.

Just need to have some kind of limiting factor... Cause I agree with you (almost) completely with the infinite part. One of the only ways infinite pulls can even remotely get my interest takes thing too close to Mind-Break territory, I am not a fan of most things that can be tagged with that - far too many think stepping on the path to insanity means becoming living garbage in a skinsuit.

I Would almost say they are worse than 'Time Skips' but you usually get a warning ahead of time for 'Loops/looping' and can brace yourself. I just really do hate 'Time Skips', like get smoked in the back of the head with a metal pipe by some fatherless scum that the world is better off without; losing all my memories and waking up five years later from a coma, add in some other horrible things and it would still dominate any list of things I hate because of how many things they have ruined with the improper usages. Did I mention... I hate time skips...and harbor great disappointment for those that use them ( 399/400 times they are used).

I do not know if I am happy or mad that they did a bunch of 'blatant / in your face' things to show a connection between the two groups... and actually did not play stupid and make it so the MC does not figure it out till five years later.

I guess... good thing he figured it out!?!

That is rough to hear... The best F U to trauma and the like is to live well. Easier said then done, but we just gotta keep at it one day at a time. If it is food related, if you are able grow something yourself - a bucket, dirt, potatoes. You might be able to take a step forward by connecting with the act of growing food a what that really means.

Not quite there; if DOOR A is the correct door, the answer will always be DOOR B (which is the incorrect/ hell door).

They will both always answer DOOR B

'the concept' is not about being right or wrong / correct or incorrect. It may be better understood if you keep in mind that they both know that DOOR A is correct (Heaven), and that the question is about finding the "wrong answer"(Hell).

The nature of the question is a step removed from the problem at hand and the actual question you are asking comes at the issue sideways. By asking: "what would the 'other one' say is the Heaven Door?" the answer will only ever be the wrong door, in this case DOOR B.

The liar will always lie and point to DOOR B (Hell) , because the TT would always point to the Heaven Door when asked which is the Heaven Door. The lie always points to Hell.

The TT just answers truthfully and points to DOOR B (Hell) because that is the answer the liar would give asked to answer the same question.

They booth point to Door B (Hell) because the question is about the "answer" the other one would provide.


...It is more akin to a guided question inside a question that is for information for clarity. It is not to find the actual answer but to find the Lie, and you use the Lie to go "sideways" to the answer you actually want by eliminating the Hell option. The key point was for me, if I remember correctly when I finally wrapped my head around the concept is that - it is not just 1 question being asked. It may seem like 1 question, but language is not such a simple thing.

I do not recall the specific answer. But it comes down to something really simple in the end with a bit of a twist. The Answer I am familiar with is when one path lead to death - just straight death.

It does not matter which one you choose; you ask "what path would the other one say is the correct path?" The liar will lie and the truthful one will also tell you what the liar would say. The twist is that you choose the path opposite of what they answered. The question is to get an answer but the answer in this case is backwards or an elimination of an option, because they both answer with the incorrect path/door/option.

The key point is that the question asked does not dictate your actions - it is solely for information and the "wisdom" comes from knowing the 'wrong' answer allowing you to know where trouble is and avoid it. In the instance the "wrong" answer lead to Undead and not death, so he went farming EXP.

Hope that explains it a bit, but a summary can be something like:
"what path would the other one say is the correct path?"
The liar would point to the death path - because the Truthful one would say the correct path if directly asked so the liar must say the opposite because they can only say a lie.
The truthful one would also point to the death path - because the lair must lie and say that the death path is the correct path.
With that you should now the path that leads to death and choose the opposite.

Ya never know, not really a "mentally stable" crowd they got there. 89 gives me the vibe of: mounts a blade in the ground/wall/etc, insults her target into a fury then blinds them when they charge and they "just happened" to run by pure 'chance' into said blade, impaling it right into their own heart.

There is also the point - if she could be dissuaded so easily then it would be far more likely to avoid a tragedy then have a good character building life experience.

Real friend tell you things you do not want to hear, but most likely need to hear.

Seeing this comment as a month old and comments form Legacy system... it hurts a bit...

Monsters. Also unless outsiders come in to the location they would have no Idea what is going on, and once again: "There are dangerous monsters in the area, we need to have ways to protect ourselves." - A place literally built on top of a dragons nest... beside a forest and mountains filled with monsters. The plan was also to have it up before anyone even realises what is happening.

Normally I sail right on past these kind of details... but, That CAKE is just wrong, the size of the slices do not match the amount of cake that was missing (unless my eyes have failed me once again). And why did each slice look like a copy & paste! I did not examine the details intently just the fact they all faced the exact same way was too much for me...

The sister was supposed to have died in a "sudden" monster raid or something of that nature. but you know; PLOT!!!! - as they say... shush, do not bring up valid points.

Though I think 'Suicide Note' might have been a mis/bad translation.

it just lessens the amount of math, and in some cases makes it easier to understand - that is probably the point of percentages... That in no way discounts your point about consumption.

I mean they kinda did a good think using the percentages as a base line, heck, you could even call it smart. But the way they use it is like an idiot trying to stab someone with a rubber mallet. The consumption rates could be explained and could easily make sense but it is like they never thought of that, the power now feels like 2 steps away from the hunting of wolves even thought the is something like 70-80+ levels of difference.

It hit 34 at the time of this comment. As you said it really is 'meh' even border garbage for me, but I just mindlessly zipped through the first 10 or so and after that I would not exactly say it gets "good" but it mostly stopped being bad and that was good, even though it was kind of still bad. There started to be point where I actually wanted to know more and was interested... it is like it has tiny hooks.

For some reason I want to say it give me the mental image of fishing in really shallow water that is just super dirty like liquid mud, but you still can catch fish, so it is still fishing, and that works if you really like fishing and cannot make it somewhere better.

Yeah, That was not really the best of times back then but in the current day it can really feel like an overcorrection that has lead in a strange direction. Even though it seems like a strange direction it still gives off an inevitable feel of going full-circle; Men are brainwashed and force fed propaganda in some regions of the world, it is leaving them alone/isolated and feeling / being told that everything they are and could ever possibly do is just "wrong".

Some people can only take so much of a beating physical and/or mental before the Human returns to Animal. Society requires participation and people being forced out leads to destruction in one way or another.

Though now I realise "real Human" was not totally accurate, better than just simply being stomped on and enslaved, the loss of control pushes him away from peak Human and more into animal territory. Magic really puts a spin on this though, cause how are you supposed to quantify a child that has the power to blow up a house by pointing a finger while they are actively being a threat?
