>>157857650
Self-insertion is an equal opportunity industry after all.

>>157857515
Cool, dropped.

To be honest in the actual story the MC is quite self assured and assertive, not sure why the anime PV seems to be making him out to be so dopey.

fuck self insertion anime. it's not self inserting since I'm not some scrawny beta male high school nip.

>>157859451
Don't worry anon, you'll find something with an obese beta NEET gaijin as the MC eventually.

>>157857515
Tohara Naoya was amazing so I might like this guy too.

>>157865661
The thing about Death March is that the author seems to have this misguided impression that being over the age of 25 somehow manages to let you control all your emotions perfectly like a Vulcan. Satou barely reacts to anything that happens around him with more than a raised eyebrow. He's got all the personality of a bowl of soup.

Is he similar to Izayoi?

I bet this isekai smartphone 'anime' was also the result of the publisher asking around anime studio to animate it.

To spite western pigs like you.

It will sell unbelievably well considering the readership of free translation of isekai LNs compared to all other literary genres.

>>157907208
It was cringe.

The problem with isekai is the same as any other anime: wish fulfillment and shit writing. Isekai just seems to suffer these two symptoms to an extreme extent.

>>157908299
You could lay the blame partially on the rise of narou lowering the bar of entry for writers, and series like MT spawning clones.

Lowering the bar doesn't do anything, they still need to get fucking popular to get adapted.

No, the WN plain sucks in its original written form. The LN gives the MC some proper character and motivation and an added dimension of emotional vulnerability; meanwhile the WN just writes him as a cardboard cutout taped to a recorder that plays random Machiavelli quotes, plus occasional memes (ORE TUEEEEEEEEE).

>>157911689
It's just a lot of fluff
LN feels like a book, the WN feels like a script, they're going for different intentions in my opinion
And again, they're both translations so there's that to consider as well

Did you even pay attention to the differences besides the line breaks? They are clear differences in actual content, even allowing for translation there are clear differences in actual content, even allowing for translation choice..

Side note, based on that same Amazon ranking Arifureta and Realist Hero are both currently outselling Grimgar.

>>157911985
There's a difference in the intro with the grandpa story and then the powers get a different chuuni name
The queen gets described in the LN too I guess
The differences are barely there, LN just adds a ton of fluff
And the pacing and rhythm of the WN seems faster and more, anime-like I guess, it really does feel like a script which gets to the point faster in a way
And Multiple Concurrent Parallel Thought is much cooler name than Living Poltergeists

>>157912237
>and then the powers get a different chuuni name
The powers itself was rewritten from two powers into one that sounds less stupid. Parallel processing brain my ass.

it's called not bothering to describe shit and rushing through so the reader can't even have a clear picture in their head of what is going on. The kind of thing editors have to fix for the final publication.

>>157912401
Also, Mushoku Tensei had a similar problem, so many characters who weren't properly described in prose so everybody had a different picture in their heads of what they looked like, until the official illustrations were made.

Parallel processing just sounds cool, it's a stupid but fun name
And what's the point of describing shit if you're aiming for an LN adaptation, like all WN writers do
This is just stuff that's written so a publisher can notice it and then make it into an LN and possibly an anime later on, the "description" is left to the artists who are gonna make the illustrations for this

>Parallel processing just sounds cool, it's a stupid but fun name
It's the difference between "I can possess objects like a puppetmaster, this lets me divide my attention between possessed objects" and "I am now a legendary Prince-like supergenius who can play ten games of chess at once, plus I also got psychokinesis"

>And what's the point of describing shit if you're aiming for an LN adaptation
Why would you phone it in if you're trying to get published? Wouldn't you try to make it as good as possible to increase the chances of publication?

>>157912686
I see
>I am now a legendary Prince-like supergenius who can play ten games of chess at once, plus I also got psychokinesis
simply sounds more fun

Because this stuff doesn't sell on execution but on the premise and character designs
So since the character designs are gonna be done by someone else, you focus on the premise instead of trying to polish it before you even know if it's worth it

>>157912719
Yes obviously you have to worry about making it popular somehow on narou at first to a certain extent otherwise the publishers wouldn't even touch it with a ten foot pole.

>Magic granting tied to room.
>Transfer spell circular.
Programmers fucked up when implementing a shitty spec.

>>157913088
More like the court magicians fucked up.

MC a cute! A CUTE!

They probably just smashed together a bunch of ancient magics without proper documentation.

>>157913138
Exactly. But who developed the spell?

To be fair he at least isn't a dull black/brown hair in a world where all the females specifically have lighter and more vibrant hair colours forcing him to reduce the gene-pool involuntarily with his overly dominant genes thus exterminating the beauty of this dimension of humanity over several generations. Anyhow what is this anime? I'm not going to watch it since script-writers are far too reactionary to write an adult script or anything even remotely realistic to the point of maintaining the suspense of disbelief, but it may be useful to see how /a/ pans out this season. I see we've already got the typical twins, I'm betting the short-haired hime-cut is the more reserved of the two, probably stammers when first meeting the protagonist and the longer-haired one is the far more abrasive and professional type. I quite like the turquoise/ steel combination on the two, gives a more metallic, technological appearance whereas the style of their clothes depict a more conservative outlook. Being a fan of Aston Villa its a colour scheme that I could concoct an encomium for.

Why can't I be that fat guy? That'd be more believable.

>>157913866
You could just eat and be the fatguy

I want to be overlapped by two anons at the same time, if you catch my drift

I really love that series. Is it actually not based off of a LN? The setup is a rather nice change in that the focus isn't on the isekai-ed people, but the poor guy who has to deal with them.
Now if only releaes were most consistent.
