Isekai Kenkokuki

I'm guessing that there was no proofreader available for chapter 4, was there? Seems different from the previous translations.

Yep, absolutely no proof reading was done on chapter 4, but the mistakes were minor and easy to spot and correct in your head.

I'm sure we've all experience far worse translations

Welp this is boring

I find it funny that both of you try to argue about the agency of an abstract concept, and try to use the idea of "ownership" as if it's an objective existence in reality. Both of these things are merely ideas in yer noggings, let's not get ahead of ourselves. 

Especially what ya'll said about nature. Nature is totally a kuudere, yo. A big tittied, monolithic, stoic-faced BBW piece of arse that randomally causes chaos whenever she turns over in her sleep, or just whenever she feels like killing shit because nature wants you bloody dead.
P.S: This is quite the windfall of Isekais we're getting on the front page, here.

with all the blessings nature gave us, i think gaia is full dere on us. if anything, its us humans who are tsunderes towards mother nature.

That's the problem here, Gaia hasn't given us anything, we've been forcefully taking those things away, because we think we're entitled to them..

But hey, what you did was downright dangerous leader-san yo. The water being crystal clear doesn't automaticaly make it drinkable!

Anyway, I'm curious abut what they are going to do to get the seeds. Depending how this goes, this series can be quite good or just meh.

"tsundere" implies that deep inside Mother Nature/Gaia loves us, which as we all know is a practical impossibility. not sure if any dere is even there

"Are there any other creature who love killing each other like that?"

 

Dolphins, ants, a lot of the great apes, Honey Badgers. You would be surprised at the number of animals that love to kill.

 

Aren't they because of territorial and hierarchial reasons? I mean, I don't see other reason why they cursed the harvest in that particular village other than killing it off. Since it wasn't reclaimed either.

 

Not really.  If it was just territorial, the animals being attacked would be able to escape more easily.  If it was hierarchial, the attacks would only occur within the same group.  Also, either of those methods aren't always based on instincts.  

 

Female chimpanzees often mate with many males, which prevents the males from actually knowing who is the father of the child and therefore protects the child from being killed by the males in the group.

 

Orcas often play and kill their prey without actually eating them.  Usually it is to practice their skills, but even those they eat can be treated as a toy long after they are dead before they are finally eaten.

Yeah, it is kind of sad how so many people who tout humanity as the bad guys tend to forget how often nature tries to kill everything. Don't get me wrong, I love Mother Nature, but she is unbelievably tsundere.

You'll also be amazed how many mundane but absolutely critical skills such as handcrafting, husking techniques, root loosening, watering micro etc. are NOT common knowledge in the modern world. Modern society is a specialist economy in many ways. Chuck a middle-class urbanite into a agricultural commune and see how much he struggles. Maoist-style resettlement of intellectuals to the countryside was a failure not just because the red guards bayoneted the bourgeoisie into doing it, but because intellectuals know next to absolute shit about the tiny details of agriculture that are only known by hands-on experience.

To be fair neither do the Chinese peasants, hence the routine famines.

 

Here's another problem, even if everyone knows the basics of farming, it's not like they have seeds. You need to be familiar with local fauna and foraging before anything else.

I have a little bit of knowledge about a lot of things. Which is great for getting something started or setting a goal. Unfortunately in these stories I feel like a lot of knowledge about 1 or 2 things would be WAY more advantageous.

One of the later Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" books has a an Isekai (sort of section) where somebody civilizes a primitive society by introducing the sandwich.  He wanted do a lot more but didn't know how to actually develop and make anything else.

bro i'm indo but i never got taught that? or maybe it's just a skolah negri thing, because i went to an international school?

yup mulai dari sd kita sudah diajari cara tanam tumpang sari dll, apalagi kalau anda angkatan sebelum revormasi krn pak Harto dulu sangat concern di dalam hal pertanian sampai kita bisa swasembada beras...

We are still unraveling the enigma that is PC load letter.

Fun fact.

With how most of humans knowledge is avaible trough the internet.

We use it 95% of the time for porn or to ask "How to cheat at this test?".

 

We as a species xD....

 

Heck, the internet holds so much info.

And everyone can acess it ... but when i ask an trainee at my work something.

"I don't know?"

" ... then try to get that info."

"How?"

" ... read it up."

"How?"

" ... okay i see where this is getting ..."

"Are there any other creature who love killing each other like that?"

 

Dolphins, ants, a lot of the great apes, Honey Badgers. You would be surprised at the number of animals that love to kill.

:3 dont judge an plot point of an Web Novel creator.

They know shit and dont even bother to google the shit they say.

If I recall correctly, I think one of the chapters mentions that the orphanage he grew up in was in a rural/farming community. So that would explain some things. He also mentions that in elementary school they had a class on how to make pottery. 

 

Either that or I got this confused with another isekai story. There's so many.

The manga site has a different montage picture for Almis, Julia, and Tetra. The LN one here though is more detailed.

As for Almis knowledge: He claims to be a "humanities major" in college before he was Truck-kun'd, and its entirely possible the Japanese educational system taught the things he mentions. (Now the question is whether you would remember a middle school science lab by college, but w/e) He also doesn't have intricate knowledge of pretty much any of the stuff.

 

For example, (minor spoilers related to tech he introduces):

 

Most of his real "success" comes from being 100% dedicated to the village and not looking to personally profit. Everything is basically reinvested.

Well, I think it's common with the country that, o don't know, have agricultural dependent history? Like in Indonesia, we were taught the basic the rotation crops in school, perhaps they were too in Japan. So perhaps I is not that common in country like USA or other, but here in Asia, it's almost common..

It depends. It's approaching almost 15 years ago since I was in school (Jesus... I wish I didn't just remember that.), but then it was mostly a "if you're a part of something that does it." Like how we had choice over elective courses and some of that was farming and agriculture (the "Future Farmers of America" organization was quite popular at my high school, mainly because many kids were into hunting/fishing/farming due to living in somewhat rural communities but going to the growing city outskirts high school). But as for main education (like "Here's English Lit and algebra/trigonometry... And now we'll learn crop rotation."), it wasn't a part of it. When I started getting into anime/manga, I was shocked at how much emphasis was put into clubs and organizations in high school in Japanese society compared to America. Which is saying something... because I thought the FFA was pretty popular and big and it was just about 20-30 people out of a school with about 900+ kids.

God. I like this mangaka's artwork. The way they draw the griffin's beak is so... uuuuuungh!

Unfortunately, teaching crop rotation doesn't mean you know the proper depth to plant a seed, know how to protect from disease and animals or even eyeball the correct amount of water a sprout needs dependent on temperature, humidity and growth stage. Crop rotation is useless if all your seeds fail or delaying in sprouting. These are fundamental practical details that are definitely not taught in general education, especially in a specialist service economy like Japan. I'd trust any local illiterate peasant to be more knowledgeable than a off-the-street urbanite in matters of agriculture.

Then it is where hobby and interest play their part. I don't know about the mc in this manga, since there's still little info given, but after you learn about things in school, it's up to you to use the knowledge, to develop which interest you the most. Yea, maybe the illiterate farmer is more knowledgeable due to their experience, but hey, combine with the knowledge you get from school, why can't you be more than the illiterate farmer? Well, tha is if you have hobby or interest in farming and stuff I mean. But the point is, the mc have the basic, now for better or worst, ge tried to apply them in his life now in another world.

Pretty much. Most of our civilization is built on logic that took hundreds if not thousands of years to develop. I mean really we know about the "printing press" and how it is designed but, it took around what.. 30 thousand years to get that idea in our heads? So right there shows what happens when you bring someone from modern times to a feudal time.
