What's this?

>>159836769
It's a spin-off about the blonde guy on the right.

What's his story, OP?

>>159836829
He's a noble who fled from home, and an adventurer. He's apparently an amazing spear user and capable of taming dragons, but he never uses this skill for unknown reasons.
Prior to the story, he attempted to rape his female friend(pictured) and often gets arrested on grounds of unruly behavior and sexual harassment. He's also constantly in debt.

>>159836725
>as scummy as Kazuma
Wrong, Kazuma was ready to impregnate Yunyun even if the girl was only 13 yrs. Dust desisted the idea when he learned her true age.

>>159836634
Yunyun is cute! I want to be her friend!

>>159837194
Kazuma was only 3 years older than her, while Dust is most likely an adult. Besides, Kazuma is all talk and no action.

>>159837111
> He's apparently an amazing spear user and capable of taming dragons, but he never uses this skill for unknown reasons.

Incredible personal skill that he mysteriously does not use.
Blatant Sue trait.

>>159837274
No it's too early to decide if his character will genuinely be as shit as it sounds, but it still has probably the most foremost Sue-Trait.
He's also physically handsome, has a distinguishing feature (red eyes).
Nigga's a Sue.
Based Kazuma would fuck this guy's woman in a humorous series of events that wound up in him coming of worse to the general public and ending up in jail.

Basically this. Just reading his description is cringy enough. Also, the fact that they copied some parts of the original MC's personality.

Of course, it all depends on how the author would write him but at the moment, he sounds offensively bad.

Just waiting for the reason for him never using the skill to be something related to him getting some girl hurt in an accieent before by using it and that he wasn't "always like this" before the "accident".

>>159836956
Sounds like shit, but at least loli succubus might get to have a personality trait beyond "exists"

I don't know if I should be offended by this or happy that someone remembered it

>>159837239
He never uses the spear or dragon because he's trying to hide his identity. He made off with the princess of some kingdom became a most wanted criminal, so he also has a secret waifu hidden away somewhere.

>>159837582
Newtype dolphins.

Basically Konosuba but done right.

Synopsis:

“No money, no women!” The (self-proclaimed) carry of Axel, the delinquent Dust, is suffering from a chronic case of empty-wallet. Whilst the newbie adventurer Kazuma continues to steadily make a name for himself –, Dust is busy setting people up in scams, selling stolen products, ripping off noble ladies, and the like. ‘Let’s make some money today too!’ Whilst he was doing so, he was told an ominous prophecy by the great devil Vanir: “Thou hast a interesting future ahead.”

Nobles in Konosuba all have innate talents because they descend from heroes. Blaming Dust for being the dragonborn is basically the same as blaming Darkness for having the highest defense stat in the world.

>>159838443
I knew the art style looked familiar. That's Yuuki fucking Hagure!

>>159838475
I linked you to that post to show you that the author wrote Dust's backstory before he created the LN. He had the exact same backstory in the web novel, it's not something he came up with last month in an attempt to make another Kazuma.

>>159838479
Him being OP is fine. What's dumb is him being OP and the author making him half-Hero-half-Kazuma because he can't actually think of anything decent, so he's just parroting actual KonoSuba's success.
I wouldn't actually mind a genuine hero and adventure story in the KonoSuba universe that ran parallel in some places to the anime.

This feels like one of those spinoffs where the author writing it can't really think of a good way to build on the character so he just throws in the other characters from the main series (mostly the girls) to carry the story and draw interest.

Because none of them have actually read the LNs and they're all just reacting to other anons' descriptions of him.

Dust is a failed Gary Stu, that's the whole joke behind his character. Natsume isn't gonna turn around and decide to suddenly write him into Kirito either, that's not her style. He's also not "replacing" Kazuma any more than Megumin or Vanir did in their spinoffs.

I dunno, I feel like we've known Dust has been more then he seems for a while. might be cool to see his side of things. I always liked him ever since Party-Swap, Kazuma needs more bros.

Why not make a novel about Dust and his party?

It doesn't really make sense for Dust to interact with Kazuma's party since Darkness, when not at the mansion, has to help her dad with paperwork and crap, Megumin does her daily explosions with YunYun, and Aqua either hangs out at her Church or at the shop with Wiz and Vanir.

>>159862422
so are they like two-timing kazuma or some shit? seems legit

>>159848095
Dust would let his party get killed by a Rookie Killer instead of using his skills.

That's how bad of a leader Dust is.

Meanwhile, when Kazuma was in charge of Dust's party, they managed to actually avoid danger.

>>159862314
It's a side story, just like the Megumin and Vanir ones, picking up from a plot thread that started in the last Megumin book.

>>159862561
They're probably just getting roped into some adventure or other while Kazuma is off doing something else, maybe with Iris and her retinue.

I highly doubt there will be any actual NTR, but I'd just about bet money that Megumin will purposely mislead Kazuma so that he'll get jealous and pay more attention to her. (It'd be far from the first time she's done something like that.)

>>159862978
I don't remember Megumin doing that. Was it in vol 10?

>>159863081
She hasn't done it to Kazuma before, but she's done similar things to make the other girls jealous. (For example when she tells Yunyun a bunch of things that are true but misleading, like that she and Kazuma have slept in the same room and bathed together, to make it seem like she's gotten ahead in their "race" to adulthood.) We also know that she's pretty shameless when it comes to getting Kazuma's attention/affection.

>>159862978
That wouldn't be out of character, but I think she's too disgusted by Dust to even pull that.

>>159863368
It depends on the situation. I'll bet she runs into Kazuma in a "compromising" position (which will probably be a mistake/misunderstanding too, like Kazuma had a typical improbable MC trip and land face-first in a lewd position moment) and will reflexively start acting like she's messing around with Dust. (Which will in turn lead to Dust misunderstanding the situation and being set up for inevitable disappointment.)

Also, calling it now, weird unfulfilled mutual attraction scenario between Dust and Yunyun.

Pretty sure 99% of the people dissing him right now are doing so based on heresay. When I heard he was getting a spinoff, I was sure it was going to be my favorite. His bit in Continued Explosions made him a LOT more likable. He's more like a washed up veteran who failed to protect a girl's smile and lost everything in the process. To call him a 'Stu' of any kind just isn't fair. You may as well say that any character that isn't a complete loser at this point would be a 'Stu.'

me too, this anime only people are annoying, there should be a board only for manga and ln discussion, here are too many normalfags nowdays.

It's on the Internet already, there's no getting rid of it.

>>159867405
Technically you're supposed to discuss light novels on >>>/jp/, but the mods let it slide because it's unpractical to discuss adapted novels there.

Also they only care about Touhou.

Kazuma's moved onto swimming in fatebux with Rie

>>159862508
The author writing this probably had no idea how to write it around Dust and his crew so he just took the easy way out and brought over the characters from the main series.

>>159862508
His party more or less disbanded when every adventurer in town but one got 8 digit windfalls. Which is why Dust was by himself in the mask spinoff and CE

why can't they release shit like this more often?

>>159836634
Isnt that one of Kazuma's friends from the anime?

>>159868408
>8 digit windfalls
What?

>>159836956
R.I.P.

>>159867405
by the way, all tbhis people never heard of him before because the anime just butchered almost all his interactions with kazuma and co in the anime, he was a very recurring character in the ln, but in the anime he's just part of the background

>>159870317
>anime-onlys complaining about LN-only material
really makes you think

>>159837546
Dust would fit her description of a perfect man

>>159871140
Normalfags everywhere

>>159871709
Well, no. Dust looks good.

>>159837582
X got screwed, if it got its full run it'd be easier to reccomend.

I find it hilarious when someone who draws a doujin for the series winds up being an actual artist for the series. Same thing happened to guy who made a couple blazblue doujins was the one who got to made remix heart.

Does this count as NTR?
Why do I feel cucked from reading this?

>>159836634
>>159872381
guys, lads, boys, anons, you gotta remember one thing, no matter how much a gary stu this guy sounds on paper, he's a scumbag, and scumbags NEVER win. Plus he tried to rape a girl, that's gotta give him some approval from a lot of anons.

>>159871709

That is suppose to be the other Jap according to Claire and Rain.

DROPPED

>he was a very recurring character in the ln

In the early volumes involving Axel but the adventurers outside Axel, Dust is a no show because the other adventurers in town could retire already.

Dust did show up in one paragraph after the Hydra was defeated.

>>159870004
Kazuma frequently hires all the adventurers to take down a big boss monster.

The loot is split evenly. This happens several times until the adventurers can now be super picky on the jobs they do since they have now earned enough money to retire.

They aren't as rich as Kazuma but rich enough to just laze around all day, drinking beer.

>>159844656
I see the EOP is strong with this one.

>>159837075
>implying Kazuma doesn't have his own fair share of sue traits
It all comes down to execution. Dust is a cool guy in the main series.

>>159836634
Wait, what the fuck? What happened to Kazuma? I haven't read the latest Light Novel, did he die for good?

>>159873533
Yeah he got married to Eris and lives in Heaven now.

Kazuma's clique is a group of literal goddesses and high nobility, two demon generals, and a walking fantasy rendition of a chuunibyou fantasy. He also beat someone with cheat powers that no actual isekai-born character could dream of having in a duel.

And people are worried that Dust is a sue just because he's a competent fighter.

>rori succubus

>>159836634
Hold the fuck up, the inexperienced succubus was a loli all along?

>>159873807
No even better, a 14 year old.

>>159873332
Yes and it's been such a shame since we havent seen best side girl lin (or rin) because of that

>>159873578
I'm glad he got a good end.

>>159873332
Leave it to a Japanese to fuck up the economy.

>>159873332
How rich is Kazuma now?

>>159873970
Oh, so she's a "loli" like Megumin. Gay.

>>159873807
Yes, what did you really think that all the succubus were plus 400 years old?

>>159874191
We don't really know her age, but she's probably much older than 14 since she's a demon.

Finally Dust gets his spin-off
I always wondered why he wasn't able to protect the girl's smile and became washed up.

>>159874163
He can buy Darkness

>>159873618
>He also beat someone with cheat powers that no actual isekai-born character could dream of having in a duel.
To be fair his skill are leaning on solo anti-personel.
His only party oriented use 'skill wise' is being Aqua>Megumin mana battery adapter via DrainTouch and Bind CC.
