A chapter showing nothing. They working hard to show 'something', then people are pissed a half hour latter when Shirone was hard working to last for 10 minutes doing something. Something something something. To even call this a cliff hanger is hard because of lack of knowledge about what is happening in the first place.

Blackmail is impossible. You can't reveal someone is a "evil spirit" without revealing yourself.

Also RL references wouldn't work anyway as the game people clearly don't know shit about the real world or even know there is one.

So it's less someone acting or knowing something someone from the real world would know rather than not acting like people expect and being too ignorant of things.

Also people don't really socialize between other parties inside the dungeon either. Two barbarians keeping to themselves would not be at all odd.

Finally again there is information Jandel could ask for and give that would have benefited them both, even if Jandel doesn't party with em.  For one asking how xe came into the game world, how much xe had played of the game or even if xe had ever played the game. On the flip side Jandel could inform em that people are looking to kill barbarians for their hearts which have financial value, and anything about the game xe might not know if xe hadn't played it or played it much. Like about the need to pay the death tax etc. Other hints for how to survive.

Also enough of "coward" I'd probably be very frightened too. Fear makes sense here. Obviously that fear needs to be overcome just to survive, but let's not judge em too harshly with words like "coward"

Also if anything Jandel is also a "coward" turning down a chance to learn more to potentially go home etc. as well as help someone out more, because of some very very slight theoretical risk.

"Pretending to be" doesn't matter, what matters is how they behave

So when you attack the ground it disappears rather than is dug it seems

I wouldn't count on the police saving them, police tend to be bad anyway.

Ah come on, we all know they will eventually be saved, stop dragging it out!

And if by chance they don't get saved despite making such a big thing of it, that would be even worse. Leave that to the tragedy tagged comics.

Geez alot of BS in this chapter. 

I wonder why the requirement to be a "ladies man" when the lady only has eyes for one person.

Well at minimum they could have shared information about how they arrived in this world.

But I don't buy your logic about a party being killed because someone thought one of their members wasn't acting like a barb.

Some training and tips could have also been done if not guide them through a dungeon at least once. Tips like for example people trying to get barbarian hearts for one.

Yes, it seems the lower the number is stronger.

MC does NOT know the "only way to get isekaid was to beat the game" MC literally only knows of their own circumstances. The two other people MC has met who have come into the game MC got no information from. This player specifically seems to NOT know much about the game, even MC wondered on that point. A sample size of 1 is worthless for determining pattern. You know a good way to increase your knowledge? ASK QUESTIONS WHEN A PRIME OPPORTUNITY SHOWS!

How is MC suppose to get back to the real world without knowing anything? It seems like MC isn't even trying to get back to the real world.

Is lower rank or higher rank number stronger?

I don't get why MC did that to the other player. Best way to help him would have been to let them into the party or something, give them a chance to learn how to do things.  At the end after saying it didn't make emotional or logical sense, still somehow makes it seem like this behavior was best for the fellow player.

They might not even have played the game or something and not know of the death tax. Also this was a chance to get more information as well as help. Does MC really never intend to return home?

That sounds right, well specifically the other person who MC is inhabiting the body of killed her in the alternative timeline. Which sounds very convoluted. Author really wanted to make sure MC had all the inside information, didn't want to take any chances in MC being less than completely OP I guess.

What part of "Being in charge of investigating your department" makes people think that MC can't say investigate their department? 

Then MC rides off into the sunset...

Wait, that's not a sunset, that's a burning building!

Why is MC called a "assassin" I wonder, and I wonder why they'd try to attack while another party is also attacking.  Especially before pitch battle starts since you might end up attacking the other bandits before you can even deal with the wagon.

Well Niijamas beloved spouse came back to him, it is not a bad idea to wait for her to come of age and remarry. If that is where Niijamas heart is, and reincarnated moms heart is,  that is the only "common sense". But it will be tricky to explain a refusal because of that without Morya thinking it's her and being offended that such a yarn was used as a excuse.

Really he should have been building up a explanation even before the confession, didn't Nijama already hear that she liked him. He didn't need to wait till a confession.

On the other hand it is possible Nijama accepts.  That bit with reincarnated mom looking with wonder at the aquarium is a small clue that this could be where this is going. But if that is where this went it would be springing it on reincarnated mom and daughter. So badly handled either way. Well this is the super idiot who ran around searching for reincarnated mom by running up to strangers in a busy park and asking if they have seen his 6 year old or whatever wife. This characters stupidity really annoys me.

That didn't even work in Bleach.

Don't warn your enemy to prepare themselves.
