I’m aware of both those things, but there were four or five in the mock exam alone, plus the opponent and her cheating father and dead brother from the sweep contest. Lee is being way overused in this.

I’ve also noticed close to a dozen characters with the surname Lee. I get that it isn’t a rare family name in that part of the world, but they all seem to be from different Lee families, and in fiction, the idea is to differentiate names so folks can keep different characters straight!

You and me both 🖖

Of course, the dumb design of Gungnir aside, it’s also pretty questionable to use the name dryads (which are wood nymphs!) for what are clearly treants!

Okay, no. Just. No! Gungnir was the spear of the Norse god, Odin. It should look like a Viking war spear, not a European knight’s tilting lance that isn’t useful for anything but a cavalry charge! Poor design choice, this.

MC challenged a mountain to a belching contest and discovered it was a volcano.

Ignore the shallow folks bitching about the art. Yes, it’s a little sketchy in places. So what? Artists are allowed to have their own style! And this has some actual philosophy in it. It’s gonna make you think about things. Well, unless you’re not using your brain. Some folks are like that, I’m given to understand. 🤷‍♂️

I think it’s a great read so far, so I’m glad to find I’m only a third of the way through the current 138 chapters.

Ah, multiweaponguy reminded me of someone and now he has a theme song in my head:

“Link! He come to town!
Gonna saaaaave! The princess, Ze-lda!”

Yes, that’s what a standardized score means. The top result is assigned 100 and all others are graded on the curve below it.

No, he’d be holding the poo. It counts as weight and ups the efficiency of the squat!

Geez, she got disarmed rather half-assedly. On your feet, girlie! You can still swing a sword!

Ikr? It’s like if I wrote a novel with six characters named Mike, three named Mark, and two named Mork.

Whether a female knight is titled Sir or Dame depends on the tradition of the particular order of knighthood.

“Wait, why is boss music playing?”

One way or another, a background character will be made into curtains.

lol, and the background character who followed him gets a second place world record by default!

Seem.

Especially if you’re also gonna introduce a FMC named Seoyoon! It’s hard to know who is being talked about with so many similar names if the spelling can’t be kept consistent!

Ah, he remembered. Good lad, pays his debts!

And I’m gonna guess she reincarnated as a horse.

The Nazi symbol is hakenkreuz. Swastikas are fine. Hakenkreuz is bad.
