Mana is a hard limitation, and the quality of the puppet (strong, yet light) is probably only manageable by our MC.

I mean, these three always were us.
But I guess it is funny when ya actually feel represented by them.
Since they are the mangakas interpretation of what a internet dialogue might be as people discuss the story.

Sorry mate but... you can't be making that discovery 37 chapters in haha

The trope was run to the ground, and then run over with gusto and desperation.

Sounds reasonable.

The reason why he looks intimidating might just be height, and not really an overprotective older brother emitting aura.

I hope is the latter, but the former might make sense if ya consider the brother there.
But, I am assuming it is big brother.

Big brother enters the scene?
Or is it father?

My money is on big brother.
Also, wonder what happened to her family if they stopped doing stuff like travels.

Love how the King was shown to be a fool, taking too much interest in battle magic at first.
But the overwhelming show of strength by Van did open his eyes to creativity and lateral thinking, meaning he is actually quite smart and shrewd.

This feels quite rushed.

But it's not a bad length for this type of story, I imagine.
Since it was always a story with a very short goal, when considering how quickly they kept on helping or recruiting spirits.

It is funny how gals in manga are almost universally good people with ver positive traits.
And then ya find a doujin and their character is quite different.

If is hilarious to consider the 180 these two did on the lewd scale lmao

That moment when he decided "I will remind her I see her as young" was clearly planned.

And I love that.

Either he had a feeling she was about to become smug, so he prepared beforehand.
Or just wanted to pick on her.

And that feels like they got quite the relationship already, haha

Honestly, I do like this type of brocon.

Because it actually make sense. She is confused about what she wants, because she probably had poor communication skills.
I'd say she wanted to be more selfish, but didn't want to be hated, so instead of request more attention, she would just keep thinking wanting more.

Thus, the emotions evolved from a desire to an obsession, twisting, confusing the original wish.

She would probably love Akira if she had been included in the group back when they were children.

But of course she would.

She has the wisdom of a long lived elf, but the mental stability of a teenage girl.

That moment of her doing the last push was hella cute.

It is impressive how much of a huge climax this is feeling because of the format, lol

We get to see so many people's reactions, but that's also because each chapter has so lil pages that the author really has to pace how the info gets presented, so it doesn't feel rushed.

I love the realis, of realising stuff once you've gone through some shit.

He would have never compromised before if twas just about moneys, but he legit was missing her and learnt from solitude.

When you want to do something, notice you can't... and keep doing it, only to suddenly have your brain turn on and realize "oh, I should do it differently"... is always such an embarrassing moment.

This guy has cleared never watched any anime.

You do NOT bring the big tiddy girl into a ping pong match hoping to "calm down".

He tried.

Give the boy a gosh darn medal.
