Better than Re:Zero.

Are you on drugs OP?

What is this? Attention thread? Well here you go OP.

>>145475249
I agree. Maria is the better "parody", the author of Re: Zero clearly wants to be taken seriously and despite poking fun at Isekai and the escapist average fun, he has created a masterpiece. Maria, on the other hand, is a true post-post-modernism work. If you didn't know that it was a full blown mocking parody you would have to call it fucking shit

>>145475214
Dead series. RIP.

>>145475249
>implying that's hard

The turd that you shat last night is better than Re:Zero.

I want to fuck a box.

>>145475214
Did it get an adaptation?

>>145485115
No, and hopefully it never does. It's too good and shouldn't be tainted.

>>145486606
>>145475214
In that case

Is it a dead series if it actually ended properly?

Not that the ending was all that fantastic or anything, but we didn't get strung along for fifteen years with neverending plots

>>145488802
It was decent seeing how he had to wrap it up in one volume. It's kind of his fault for not writing fast enough to turn it into a volume per year series. But maybe that's for the best.

Why this poorly written garbage get so many good reviews?

What, 0? Did you even read the books?

>>145488802
The ending sold like 400 units in Japan.

>>145488964
Fuck it. As long as it didn't get canceled, it's fine. We even got some songs.

>>145475214
How does this series even continue after volume one where it's apparently like a million loops or something. I've never read it, but what is the plot even about?

Poor man's New Testament 9.

>>145489274
Kids with narrowly specific super powers and how they fuck everything up.

Each arc is about one kid using a Box, and how the MCs deal with it. Overarching story about the main girl and guy is really well distributed and foreshadowed throughout the volumes.

>>145489437
Not a chance, Utsuro no Hako is far better than anything garbage like Index could ever dream of being.

>>145489437
The only thing that's poor is Kamachi's writing.

>>145489437
No.

Index is garbage.

>>145489437
>pulling it all in one volume
The impact of the experience is that it actually passes through real time.

>>145475214
Ignoring the retarded plots, the cringey way that the characters have of expressing themselves, the clumsy way in which the author rushes through everything he doesn't want to portray as dialogue, or how the characters explain how they reached X conclusion through a dialogue I'm at the very least managing to read through it. Sad because you can tell that it's not even a translation problem

>>145489892
Anime is always cringey anyways, but that's the experience. Others is personal preference of an author's writing style.

>>145489988
Well I have no problem with the characters being extravagantly grandiose if they are actually performing super feats, like Fate or any of your chuuni fantasies. It's just that the characters don't do this actions and still act that way. For example, when in the ceremony Maria does that Salute to Kazuki, or any time that the narration itself describes any of Maria actions. If the books were at least more lenghty you could form the emotional connection to allow that kind of thing without it being stupid and monotone.

Also yeah that title drop in the second volume was killing me, especially when they kept mentioning the fucking night on the mud in the last line just before every chapters/hour was over and over

>>145489892
>it's this idiot again

>Well I have no problem with the characters being extravagantly grandiose if they are actually performing super feats, like Fate
No surprise here.

You have no talent as a literary critic. Try something different.

>>145490314
Do I know you?

>>145488802
It took so long to come out that all excitement died and it sold like ass, but yes it had a proper and I think good ending.

>>145486647
>a Taiwanese puppet show is allowed to have threads on /a/ but this can't anymore
>even though the translator would come to the threads when he was working on hakomari

>>145493534
Animation and comics from other asian countries can be posted on /a/.
LNs without anime or manga adaptations belong on /jp/.

That's just how it is, if you don't like it complain to Hiro.

>>145493704
Bullshit. Manhwa gets deleted all the time. There is just a double standard for the puppet show because it is urobutcher related and all the newfags who think it is deep while hating actual anime.

That said, LN threads happen on /a/ all the time. So fuck off.

This series would be incredibly popular in the west if it ever got an adaptation; unfortunately Japan thought it would be better to just make another season of My Wife is the Student Council President

>>145493845
Manhwa has been stated by the mods to be okay. Even if there is some janitor that hates korean comics that doesn't change what the rules are.
LN threads happen mostly for titles that have adaptations.

There is a reason /jp/ exists.

>>145494003
>Manhwa has been stated by the mods to be okay.
You're a lying sack of shit. I've seen gookshit deleted from OPT.

Go start a manwha thread and see how long it lasts.

Looks like you can kill yourself now.

Hakomari is incredibly overrated.

Like I said before, just because some janitor does what he pleases doesn't mean it's the rules.

This is in relation to LNs with adaptations.

I miss the pre-Re:Zero threads. Now every HakoMari thread is 100% unbearable shitposting from incredibly defensive people.

>>145494642
What's even the deal with Re:Zero? I haven't watched it and have no idea why it's so shitpost-prone

>>145494780
It's popular and it's easy to shit on and call it garbage because it's isekai.

>>145488964
This isn't fucking fair. How did this bomb? It has cute girls and a school setting

>>145495124
It took literally years between volumes after the first two or three or four
hype died
quiet releases
etc

>>145495124
The guy took years between volumes, changing artists and editors along the way.

>>145495200
>>145495218
I can hardly believe anyone who started reading this wouldn't care about the ending at all. It was such a gripping story from the very start and years laters the LN industry just kept getting worse anyway it's not like this got too old or something.

Fuck off japan seriously, the rare actually good LNs all get terrible treatment, no hype, no sequel, etc
Terrible.

>>145494780
Decent show with lots of waifu bait. MC is /a/ incarnate 85% of the time, but turns into a full retard 15% of the time and creates MEME FUEL. Whether or not it's excusable due to the plot is debatable. Causes your typical "this is popular but has issues, therefor it is shit and I must post about how it is shit"

>>145495334
Not so much that people didn't care as much as they had just moved the fuck on. If it had been a yearly release it would have been much better received.

this has piqued my curiosity

is the fan translation good or the usual garbage

What the hell is this and why haven't I heard of it

Did this ever get an English release? I thought it would but there's still only fan translations from what I see.

>>145488904
Baby's first deep LN.

>>145495484
It's pretty decent, I think
>>145495515
It's a pretty good LN that lost all of its hype and marketing a few years ago around when it got to volume 5 of 7

>>145494544
It's unavoidable when the medium is mostly trash

>>145495334
I honestly didn't give a shit past the first volume.

>>145495562
No, but the translations weren't bad.

I don't know if it's good, but it sure was a fun ride. The last one in particular. That level of Yandere is always fun to read about.

>>145495334
The first volume was the best one anyways.
