The first chapter of the manga adaptation has been translated by LHT. For those unfamiliar, the premise is that demon lords maintain their own dungeons around the world to harvest power from the emotions of those who venture inside. The MC has the idea of building a town to nourish humans instead of an inhospitable hellscape that kills them.
And that's it. RIP thread. The manga seems to omit quite a lot of important details, like the true nature of the MC's medal. It could just be that more information will come later.
Having read the first two volumes of the WN, I'm not very excited. The city management elements are garbage, there's no overarching plot and the conflicts are just about MC flaunting. MC's loli wifes are ok, but not quite cute enough to carry this otherwise worthless story.

She is pretty cute. Also, if you thought a single thing about this was at all original, know that one of her first powers is a GON-style transformation where she ages herself up to borrow strenght.
>lazy fantasy setting and lazy game mechanic why can't these kind of setting be more creative and interesting like Rance series? none of these shit is even 1/10 as good as Rance, a fucking porn game.
Thomas Hughes
Reading volume 1 of this. It's a very good read so far. Too many Norse names though.
The guy really loves his childhood friend. He would probably go to deep end if he could no longer talk to her.
There is also a two years time skip in the beginning, I am assuming later volumes will go back to those parts.
>Why isn't stuff written in some dudes basement as good as something by a professional studio Gee, I dunno.
Nathaniel Davis
Real talk: setting/premise means absolute jack shit in the long run. Sure, an interesting hook will get more readers to try the shit you're peddling at first, but long-term, if your world-building, character development, prose, etc. are shit, then your product is still complete shit.
People here should focus more on how actually well-written these stories are rather than what the initial premise is.
Rance's world building, ability mechanics and lore stuff are massive mean everything in long-run (it lasts 10 long ass games). None of these hundreds of isekai/fantasy shit is on par with that, it's really sad.
Aiden Stewart
The relationship the MC has with his girls is really fucking weird.
The rest of vol 2 illustrations are quite boring. so let's move on.
Holy shit, after six months, Sairin Yuusha has dropped 14 chapters at once. Let's look at a NU review.
>jaq921 rated it 2/5 >Status: v2c2 >This is lukewarm compared to Nidome no Yuusha (like stale water to molten lava). >I don't feel the madness, the anger, that guilty pleasure when you see your enemies suffer as you cut their limbs one-by-one, the fear in their eyes as they beg for life. >I don't feel the evil. >If you like a revenge story treated with kiddie gloves, this is for you.
This dude is acting like Nidome no Yuusha is actually good, which is hilarious. Is this the kind of edgelord for whom revenge isekai are written? Seriously, what's appealing about setting up some arbitrary needlessly, pointlessly evil assholes who get comeuppance? I can understand a desire to get back at a proxy for all the people who've done you wrong in life, but the "villains" in these revenge isekai are so flat and comically evil to the point of absurdity. All revenge isekai I've read are guilty of this, from shield hero to kaifuku jutsushi to this. I can't derive satisfaction from the punishment of characters whose motivations are so contrived that they can't possibly have any basis in how people behave in reality.
That said, I started reading this because it was tagged as being a romance between the hero and the demon lord, and I'm a sucker for that. But really jack shit has happened in 4 volumes. If you want torture porn, this shit is your deal. jaq921 missed the part with flesh-eating monster maggots and a regeneration potion. Sairin Yuusha does this better than the NnY and KJ.
What are you thoughts on revenge isekai as a premise?
She's a complete cake, but she's still be the best girl by miles if she weren't.
They seem to share the artist, Takahiro Tsurusaki.

>What are you thoughts on revenge isekai as a premise? you are either going to get edgelords or youre going to get holier than though shit.
so if you arent ok with either one, there is no fucking point in getting into them, because no one will ever write one without an OP MC.
Daniel Foster
Rance series is far deeper than that, way better than any of these isekai fantasy trash.
Lincoln Harris
They literally call him daddy. It'd be legit gross if he gave in.
Henry Howard
>written by a woman Nah, it's just some fantasy of wanting a strong asshole man.
Hudson Cook
>What are you thoughts on revenge isekai as a premise? Often used, rarely correctly which is a shame since I enjoy that kind of stories so much
Surely among the thousands of trash isekai that populate Syosetu there most be something good like an isekai Montercristo
Justin Nelson
>They literally call him daddy. It'd be legit gross if he gave in. some woman like that
Joseph Brooks
Apparently the author of Kaifuku Jutsushi is female, which really threw me for a fucking loop. I don't know much about Rance, but the MC for this seems to be based on Rance if he were a million times edgier.
I knew it ever since MC was taking it up the ass on purpose way too much
Matthew Kelly
Reminder that the [Time] demonlord has to watch via the bird he gifted Procell in order to exchange letters. >Not only getting cucked, but having to watch the girl you loved for 200+ years get fucked by an upstart who was calling her Mom not a year earlier O I AM LAFFIN
>Fucks Marcho >Literally calls her Mom >Rorono and Kuina call him Dad >Ew, they can't fuck What's the difference user?
Colton Brooks
That one is a better revenge isekai imo. MC is still capable of being nice and the world still has other good people.
Also cute ex-maou.
Jayden Wright
Do you have any examples of this you think were done right? TCoMC has so many things that this genre is missing. >villains with actual motivations >unintended consequences of the revenge >redemption of both some villains and the MC himself >actual fucking growth
Jaxon Young
Oh no
Sebastian Moore
I really like how he tries his best to be edgy to everyone but his natural heroism just won't let him.
I think he only got willfully sucked off by men? The ass rape doesn't come until time spent with the gun hero, and that hasn't happened in this timeline.
Wait, has he actually fucked Marcho yet? He chickened out just recently for no reason at all.
Jose Price
Yeah, now that I thnik about it its really weird that he is fucking his mom
Joseph Ward
it can't be helped when she's such a cutie
Cameron Taylor
>MC is a demon king and creates a city. >Altough being a city created by demon king, it isnt babylon tier unholy city. I never get the jap logic
Christian Ross
Have to prove to those dirty european serfs why the japanese are superior.
Daniel Rivera
Demon king doesnt mean that he is evil, they actually exist for the purpose of aiding human development after the world went back to the stone age
Evan Mitchell
They hate Christianity so they make demons the good guys just to spite them.
Jace Ramirez
>People here should focus more on how actually well-written these stories are You serious bruh? If it entertains me, that's all that matters.
Ryder Taylor
>But this was the only stretch of time where Yuuto truly began to feel his heart heal. >“Good night, Mitsuki,” he said. >And so, Yuuto managed to pass another day as the sovereign unscathed. I can already see the phone getting destroyed or stolen and something similar to pic related happening.
I tbink it's more like in tne older religions in the middle east, where deities could be gods and demons at the same time, and just cause one hapoened to be a demon it didn't mean it was innately evil.
Joshua Reyes
I have yet to see a LN, much less an isekai to pull off the city/town/country management aspect reallistically
Jose Miller
There are ones where the MC just delegates management to people that actually know how to do shit instead of magically learning how to run a city/country
Lucas Barnes
Crop rotation lmao
Michael Reyes
The MC isn't even Japanese, though. And thus far it's been free of the muh miso shit.
It's the writing that entertains you, not the premise that loses all bearing on events after the first few chapters.
Xavier Nelson
They are doing really bad job then
Owen Garcia
>Basically, girls with guns. is there anything better?
I feel like this series suffers from the usual "since MC is dungeon master, he has no powers so he needs to keikaku every fight but luckily it turns out all his enemies are morons"
