Oh boy, here we go. Spoiler alert!

Rather than just saying yeah, it gets sad without saying what happens, like a few of the novel readers, ever so happy to impose their sense of superiority upon comic readers, while not even being able to explain anything, choosing to make you believe they don't want to rather than can't, instead, here's the answer and the why.

Yes, the story gets very sad and depressing. Not called the war arc for nothing. Arthur's father dies in the war, Tessia's mother and father are executed because they betrayed Dicathen to save Tessia, as her beast core was corrupted, and IIRC they were convinced that Agrona was the only one who could cure it, so they gave him free entry to their country, but Agrona, ever the scumbag, decides that he does not want them and they are executed by him. Who could have seen that coming? As a bonus, her entire country of Elenoir is razed to the ground by a soldier of the leader of the Asura, who decides to pin it on the Alacryians and make a martyr out of them.

It does get better in the future, when everyone moves on from the lives lost after the war is over.

As for the guy above, I think this guy's talking about Arthur finding out that the big bad of the entire story, Agrona (the leader of Alacrya -- the continent from which Arthur's enemies hail -- that are attacking Dicathen), caused his reincarnation, but failed to put his soul in a proper vessel due to Sylvie's interference... Yep, you did not read that wrong. Turns out that Arthur, his entire life, had been protected by Sylvie -- who had been with Arthur from the moment he was born, as they are connected by Fate -- to make sure that Agrona never got hold of Arthur.

On a lighter note, in case you're curious, he hasn't had a daughter yet, but the love interest is confirmed to be Tessia, despite what the people huffing loads of copium will have you believe.

Completely forgot. Sorry.

The timeskip happened a while ago... what we've been seeing is just a flashback.

Okay...? One of the best villains in all of fiction. Right up there with Griffith.

this world needs you to stick a .45 in your mouth and pull the trigger to be perfect.

Yes, I can understand the hate for the first one, but not the 2nd one.

Can't be a spin-off, as it's very important and correlates with the main story in the future.

I think blocked users being able to see your posts is fine, the alternative is them just making alt accounts and viewing your posts anyway, so I don't think that matters.

I don't have a problem with them learning from actual art. Any attempt to slow down AI progression is meaningless. AI WILL take over jobs like those, whether people like it or not, as unfortunate as it may be. AI art is almost already indistinguishable from human art, and sooner or later, it will be indistinguishable.

Wish the gender bender tag wasn't there for this one.

MC is gay. Marries a dude at the end of the story.

All of my time wasted, just to find out it's a harem manga.

The female leads, if you're curious: He marries Yidhra and the yandere.

Well, that changes the meaning of the first chapter...

Oh boy, this is a relatively new studio. I wish it had been picked up by an established one instead, but what can you do? I would not set your expectations high.

Surprised they got those VAs, though.

There's a special place in hell for those disgusting fucks.

got me giggling like a little schoolgirl at night, fuck you

I think the fact that this manga has similar depressive undertones to Scum's Wish is indication enough that she played some hand in this story... As well as the fact that she's the artist for this manga, I think it's ridiculous to believe that she didn't at least have some hand in the story.

Or you can ignore my point, I guess that works too.

Why is it a retarded take? If she influenced the story's direction then it would explain everything given the drastic difference between his previous manga and this.
