The Amy hate is so forced y’all SHES A GOOD CHARACTER JUST LET HER COOK MY GOD ┗( T﹏T )┛
I’m starting to think people hate her more for misogyny reasons than anything ACTUALLY in the story because her and Shirone’s chemistry is very well set up and established! Like the dynamic isn’t being forced at all! And so many people are being intentionally reductive of Amy’s character just because they would rather Shirone get with someone else.
And I absolutely get it. A lot of us ship Shirone with Rian. But as much as the mlm would work the dynamic between Amy & Shirone is established way earlier and more consistently.
It doesn’t have to be canon for you to enjoy it and you don’t have to hate characters for getting in the way of an OTP that was never going to happen in canon because it was never the author’s intent ╥﹏╥ hell half the fun of a non canon ship is that it can only live in speculation - every example I can think of where the fandom got controlling and the creator had to make the fanon into canon despite their original intent turned out AWFUL
Aren't people already tired of throw the "misogynist" fist every time others dislike a female character because it just doesn't suit their taste? It's 2025, ffs.
And just to add, I actually love Amy's character, so I'm not defending anyone out of the blue.
Could someone please give me the novel link ??
I’ve been looking through the comments to see if anyone posted it but I can’t find it ╥﹏╥

We're currently at chapter 56-57 in the novel (=・ω・=)
Thank you so much :D
For an official translation… the quality seems really poor in comparison to the novel fan translation. Things like the way the names have been adapted really don’t work in English whereas the fan translation has a more deliberate feeling adaptation so that you can actually pronounce the names. Not to mention that I’ve noticed more than a couple actual mistakes in these officials ╥﹏╥ not all translation teams are built equally I guess
Sorry for the rambling I’m just really into linguistics
YES as a novel reader I'm so frustrated ┗( T﹏T )┛
Omg I do actually like Shirone and Amy as a couple but like ?.? Wlw potential??? Very real guys…
Rian and shirone too(づ￣ ³￣)づ
Okay so she’s like insanely pretty and I actually think her the characterisation is really interesting. It makes Mc seem less OP currently and I like that the power scaling is more subtle like this despite Mc’s fast adaptation to the new powers thrown at him. I guess what I’m saying is that I like that this trial master feels more grounded than the others?
Ngl I always pictured him as a grubby middle aged guy with bad posture. I have no idea why i pictured him like that but this is gonna take some getting used to lol
The pacing is horrible. it’s so fast paced that there’s no way you could make the characters even interesting cos nothing they do makes any damn sense
I feel like this story has a really intriguing premise and I like the characterisation so far but I keep getting hung up on the artwork. I appreciate how difficult it is to illustrate a webcomic (I would know- I’ve tried to make one myself) but the art is jarringly disproportionate scene to scene. I feel like it’s most obvious between scenes with a side profile and any other angle for the head that the eye position and size keeps changing dramatically and in some of the shots it’s to the extent of feeling uncanny how incorrectly positioned they are. It’s a shame because in all other ways I like the art work and how the character designs are really strong despite the realistic looks they’re going for.
I thought I was alone on this the art is good but this story is really intense and feels like the art style is lacking a bit in capturing the essence of the story for me I feel like the eye is very emotionless
