"If it's faithful to the source material, it's boring."

Sasuga, otaku.

Let's not be so mean with him.

As a reader of both, I disagree, because if its identical then its boring as shit, both fran is good, of course opinions are subjective

There is more than 1 big problem with that point of view...

 

I don't want to adress every single one, So, I just gonna give the major problem with it.

 

¡¡He is not the author¡¡.

Don't be, It's good.

"If it's faithful to the source material, it's boring."

You know it's very sore excuse, "Don't listen to haters" (that's what you basically speaking about).

The problem lies in 1) Lack of subtlety 2) Breaking the immersion 3) Lazy approach to worldbuilding. Wich is not parts of "cool story". In the first place, games themselves use this mechanics to emulate and simplify things you can't code or will take too much time doing so and won't benefit for player in the long run anyway.

Speaking of wich, Goblin slayer also uses game mechanics, but doing it subtle and never focusing on it, making actual "cool story" instead.

 

"Breaking the immersion" ... of that of a guy reincarnated into a sword ...

 

As for the "lazy approach to worldbuilding".  The entire point of what I said was that worldbuilding is a hugely complicated task.  I, personally, am more than willing to cut people slack for using "game mechanics".  And unless you've written a Webnovel that isn't taking said lazy approach, I don't believe you should be throwing those stones so hard.

I have a real problem with the guy that is adapting the Webnovel or Light novel to the manga ¬¬.

 

Fran is not like that, She is more sharp, With a serious and innocent aura around herself, But here, She is more cute than anny of those.

 

And hell, Everything is change a lot, A LOT, They are way to many parts that are almost completely different, It is so annoying that it is not getting a better adaptation.

 

Fran deserves better.

To be fair they just arrived there, gathered around and were trying to set up a camp.  It was pretty safe earlier too since no goblin came out from the cave while the dwarf was watching for a long time. 

 

Also the previous chapter told us that most veteran were on a big mission. Long story short they were noobs mostly. The highest there is a C rank with teaching position. 

Not just that, the initial stampede was defeated. They kept an eye on it and the Goblins were mostly quiet and showed no intent on attacking them. Nobody including the more experienced ones were expecting such a sudden shift in behaviour, which appears to be mostly down to the Dungeon Master being a deviant and acting "oddly" i.e outside of expectations due to him appearing to have no intention to do what dungeons are meant to. 

 

It was even mentioned that these adventurers are NOT trained soldiers. They usually work alone or in small group and not as cohesive military units. Whom are missing entirely because they refused to give aid to them. Add to that that most of them are lower ranked and new ones and you get a rather unfortunate outcome. 

Idiot adventurers.  There is a horde of goblins nearby and they just gather together in an easy to hit group with no defensive fortifications.  Of COURSE the goblins are going to attack.

Tatics bro. Tactics.

 

How to weed out noobs from the guild.

Let them die to gobs.

We all learnt how dangerous gobs are with " goblin slayer".

Who's atm the most realistic on the warfare term.

It's a real LN series.

And it is way better than this adaptation.

That...

 

That is another of the faults of the one who is adapting it to manga, They take it more seriously in the webnovel.

really? the vibe i get from the manga is more...catlike? not sure how am i gonna describe it. all i can imagine is a mini chibiblack cat head with ^ mouth and half-moon eyes. i think i've seen that image around in the manga representing Fran. Nh.

 

Well, I can't remember she being "Catlike" in the Webnovel, Actually, Now that you mention it, Being a Catgirl has nothing to do with his personality, In the "plot" being of the black cat tribe is a major part of the plot, But her personality is not the regular stereotypical "Catgirl".

>LHT
Oh god, incompetent typesetters and jpgs, here we go...

Huh, Manga raws are quite ahead for this one. It's already in chapter 14.

Have a beautiful Fran from chapter 14.1.

Not like it was like shield hero a while back. They were on chapter 14, volume 2 or 3. and the raws were on VOLUME 14. When I went to Japan in June '17, raws were on volume 16.

First time I saw him, I instantly thought about that horrid manga and "Hey, he loks like that one.".I wonder if this is intentional.

We’re fine so long as there isn’t a Pucci-like devotee. That’s a true recipe for disaster...

He isn't gay manly or beautiful enough to be DIO.  

A manga of the series was here, and I didn't know of it? A screw up of a lifetime!!!
