Cain continues to strive to become completely OP just so that he can see Diana more often.
Something I wonder about this series is whether we are going to get a time skip or not. The main plot of the game is years away when Diana is betrothed and going to school. However, it seems so far that we are going to stay here where Diana is still a kid.
Just saw this in the recent updates page and decided to check it out since I recognized the title as it is getting an anime adaptation next year.
I have liked it so far. It is kind of like Kaguya-sama or Akebi-chan mixed with Bocchi. I don't think all the main characters are introduced yet, but I am looking forward to more.
I had forgotten how far back the manga is compared to the anime at this point. Two things stood out to me about this chapter:
First, this panel cracked me up. The way this dude is drawn was hilarious to me:
The second thing I am going to put behind a spoiler tag because it is about something that happens way, way into the future of the WN.
WN Spoilers
This panel reminded me about the lightning magic that is used in the WN.
Back when I read through the WN, the arc where the lightning magic is used by the Goddess's apostles(?) (I don't remember the exact name anymore) is about as far as was translated. This was shortly after the Tsige war for independence iirc.
I am in the US and I am unable to find an official source. Looks like it used to be on Crunchyroll, but they announced its removal in 2021 (they still have the spinoff). Might be time to don the hat and eyepatch.
I have heard good things about the show, but haven't seen it myself.
He must be really knowledgeable to be able to traverse the invisible floor even when going slow enough for the others to follow. I knew somebody that used to do speedruns and they could fly through their game at full speed, but if they slowed down even a bit, it messed up all their muscle memory and movement patterns.
Man, Ain is a man that knows what he wants. Even in his final moments, he can't help but dream about Kiira.
Also, who knew that this would be the most dangerous character they could come across. Cue the Dark Souls boss music...
I think the AC audience has a tendency for this kind of thing.
Yep, it was on a break.
Alya is back on top with a pretty good episode this past week. Lots of green in the top 10 this past week with a couple shows making pretty big jumps up the table. Notably, 2.5D Seduction and Cafe Goddesses both jumped up more than 5 spots.

When I was watching all the OP/EDs for the season, I really felt like this made a better OP for the show than ED. It's a fun song, and I like these visuals more than the visuals from the show.

Just caught up with this series today and it seems like our main pair is finally having a bit of a heart to heart. We still haven't found out who the little boy was, but Yuri probably came over as a result of her writing to him about it. My guess is that it was a spirit, but I am guessing we will find out more soon.

Last chapter, I had just talked about how I wished this series did more with the relationship between the two sisters. Looks like I didn't have to wait long.
