So Knight's and Magic has a manga now. It's isekai shit, but the web novel is a guilty pleasure.
Also fantasy /m/ thread.

You are my hero /m/odest /m/an. Fantasy mecha is my favorite. Please continue to translate this one.
>>14715971
Not my work- it's from Easy Going Scans. Really hope they keep doing it, really love the whole fantasy /m/ thing.
That was nice.
>>14715777
Truck-kun strikes again.
Did this have a anime a couple years back or am I thinking of some other new fantasy mecha show which isn't Horizon
>>14716918
You're thinking of something else. Maybe it's Tenchi Muyo: War on Geminar?tfw no season 2
>>14716924
Nah, more recently than that.
Maybe it was this and I just assumed it got an anime adaptation out the gate for some reason.
>>14715737
Shit, i remember reading that LN a year ago.
How many has been translated now and who's translating it?
>>14716918
Break Blade / Broken Blade? It has 'magical science' quartz robots powered by humans, though it has guns as well as swords.
>>14716966
Also more recent than that
Yeah I'm probably remembering the anime part wrong and this was actually it
For anyone who cares, Knight's and Magic chapter 2 is out on Easy Going scans website.
>>14716938
Skythewood already dropped this since there was no new Chinese-translated volume released for him to translate to english as far as I know
The other translator, Bakadogeza, is still translating it, but his translations leave more to be desired.
and if anyone cares, the raws are posted in Comicawa's website
>ywn be hit by a japanese truck
>>14715754
I'm irrationally happy that the artist included more than just Zakus in this scene

Storytiming that too now. Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks for posting
Animu and subsequent debut in SRW when?
>>14721215
I wouldn't be surprised if it gets an anime in a year or two. Isekai seems to be the current big thing.
>>14721238
Why they haven't adapted Shieldbro & Mushoku Tensei yet is beyond me.
>>14721255
Mushoku Tensei would be interesting, but I dunno about Shield Bro...
>>14715832
I can't help but think they wanted to use the term Magic Circuit instead, but then remembered Type Moon has a handle on that term
>>14721361
>>14721255
Shieldbro? More like "innocent man gets accused of rape and his life gets ruined"
>>14721425
May hit a bit too close to home for some people.
>>14716971
Nobunaga: The fool?
>>14721155
G-Self and Turn A?
>>14715754
Dat leo.
>>14716918
Um war on giminar maybe?
>>14721425
The payback on everybody that wrong him, when it came, seemed a tad excessive though
It kind of felt like the author invoked some personal memories when he wrote it
>>14723311
It all felt very personal which made the first part good. Then it became standard LN isekai trash when he got it out of his system
Has /m/ finally realized Ernesti is literally the embodiment of mecha? Kid has a fine balance of TUEEEing while clearly not giving a shit about repercussions so long as it makes his hobby more enjoyable, including beingsecretly happy about leaking his technology just so people get baited into thinking they can conquer the continent only to become his prey.
>>14715737
>web novel
All translated material is from the light novels though. Nobody wants to translate the free web novel that's volumes ahead.
>>14715741
>real robot
That looks rather super robot to me
>>14723664
It's real, the specs are pretty much garbage compared to even Zakus.
>>14724807
Now that is just sad.
>>14721161
Well now I just have to read the light novel.
>The covers have Eru in all sorts of girly poses and wearing thigh-high boots
Girly boys and magical robots. The artist is definitely /ourguy/.
>>14725427
Still cooler than a zaku though.
> reincarnation shit
why the fuck is this popular?
>>14731364
Buddhism.
>>14721115

Japanese society preaches that hard work is rewarded. A lot of young Japanese men work hard for that reason, but find out it's not as rewarding as promised and that there'll always be someone born into a better "starting position" than them.
So they turn to this form of escapism, reincarnation into a fantasy world that lets them make use of their previously mundane skills.
>>14731404
At what point does escapism become bad for storytelling? I mean, there's power fantasies, and then there's this.
>>14731416
I'd definitely draw the line, when the main character had zero skills before reincarnation and suddenly turned out to be a walking god that attracts females left and right.
>>14721960
Turn-A and Exia
>>14721155
Weird gunpla cameo
Read the all the translated novels recently and am thirsting for more. Are there any other notable mecha LNs? Preferably ones that spend some time to explain the technology behind them?
Knights and magic chapter 3 is out now.
>>14715737
Thanks for posting the first two chapters. Guess I'll read the LN now.
>>14731404
>Japanese society preaches that hard work is rewarded. A lot of young Japanese men work hard for that reason, but find out it's not as rewarding as promised and that there'll always be someone born into a better "starting position" than them.
That's the reality of having connections, and of course yakuza running things behind the scenes.
The glass ceiling.
Kids carrying every/m/an's dream.

If you haven't read them before, Tomino's MSG novelization explains some of the tech stuff in UC. Plus you get a story that is significantly different than the show.

I thought he reincarnated into a QT grill, but then I was disappointed.
>>14743339
Anime?
>>14744621
Hopefully.Kana Hanazawa as a reincarnated mech otaku qt trap when?
>>14744621
With the current trends w/ LNs, it might be a Drama CD, but lets cross our fingers for an anime
>>14744621
It just occurred to me that I don't think we have a isekai resurrection LN anime adaptation played straight. Kinda weird if they were to start now.
>>14715737
But we already have Dunbine and Masoukishin for our Isekai.
>>14715737
I thought it was Reincarnation shit, and Isekai shit is when people from our world are brought to another world.
>>14715777
so the holy trinity is behind the japanese truck thing
>>14715777
I'm holding back a joke trying to tie all those Japanese trucks that kill people in manga/anime to the Nice attack.
>>14715737
>/m/an doing /m/an's stuff
>Wish fulfillment generic fantasy alt-world shit
Never expected things I adore and avoid would intertwine like this.
IIRC wasn't there another fantasy mecha LN with stats at the end of volume?
>>14715777
>tfw when no isekai where a neet is reincarnated in a world of trucks

Well I'm sure it's someone's fantasy.

>world of trucks
>actively tries to design a truck that doesn't SUDDENLY kill random street crossers
>because their deaths makes the kingdom lose valuable and talented people

I'd read it.

So you guys wanna adapt Big Rigs into a light novel? What is it too graphically violent for a movie?
