How come Re:Monster is absurd power wankery but kumo desu ga is cute and endearing?

How come Re:Monster is absurd power wankery but kumo desu ga is cute and endearing?
Is torture porn of cute things the secret ingredient?

for the first 200 chapters Kumoko is the underdog

Rou hit the ground running and only faced difficulties when fighting the red bear

I belive he alo directly lost to some divine dear but that was before the dungeon and i stopped reading around there

I stopped reading after the totally-not-elf-rape

not because of the rape but because it was boring

how come Re:moster gets translations but LN kumo doesn't get any?

You said so yourself. Re:Monster is power fantasy wankery, and not even a good or convincing one.

Fucking nukiges do a better job at making a badass and believable characters than Re:Monster.

I haven't read re:monster desu but the powercreep in kumo is at least reasonable. In manga chapters it'd take her 50 chapters until she becomes an absolute powerhouse when in a lot of isekai fantasies the main character gets something world breaking thing in 1-2 chapters.

MC, who is super handsome even as a goblin: My power? My power is to have all the powers. Also to fuck bitches

Because plebs love their shit and they always scream the loudest for what they want.

And even then, if the MC is very powerful off the bat, but can offset it by making other foes just as mighty. The problem with Re:Monster MC is that everything exists either as worms to trample on or to suck his dick.

Take for example Tensei shitara Tsurugi deshita. The MC starts his new life as legendary sword. He spends the first chapters stomping low level mobs until he gets in deep shit. Then it is later revealed he ain't hot shit at all, just an above average sword. Enjoying the story so far.

R:M and Kumo got MTLs

probably a disservice to MTL LNs

Well in that sense kumo is pretty much the same. The labyrinth where she starts is considered the most dangerous place in that setting and as her first spider form she's already stronger than an average human. She has tough fights against some monsters in that labyrinth but a lot of those monsters are considered either extremely dangerous to humans or mythic rank divine beasts that 1 in a million seen in their lives.

I'd sell half my soul for an OVA about the human - demon great war side chapters.

The difference that I see is that Kumo has its MC be in actual danger, and in a need to think and act her way through. Not an IWIN button for every situation.

>Then it is later revealed he ain't hot shit at all, just an above average sword. Enjoying the story so far.
just stop now while you still have a good impression

Goddammit.

Gee i wonder

She isn't more powerful than an average human because average humans are smart. Actual taratects are stupid and it takes until the 4th evolution for most to learn how to make traps. An extremely rare few figure out how to make funnel web traps.

Most of the monsters in the labyrinth are simple brutes. What broke kumo was her human intelligence, and even then it was a huge struggle until Zoa Ere after which she was only really challenged by Rendo and Alaba.

a lvl1 small lesser taratect is stronger than an average human, not stronger than a lvl30 adventurer but if a tailor and a taratect ended up in a room the taratect would eat him

FUCK!
