This was a lot better before it was known that Iris is Alice's reincarnation. It just seems... so forced. Like, he was never interested in her as Alice when he was Dean, and I mean, I get it. He was an immortal being who was going to live long after her, and he didn't want to ruin the future of a seven year old, or have to grieve forever after she died. But once he reincarnated, where did his sudden obsession with her come from? It seemed like he was only interested in what happened to her after his death as Dean. It was weird. Sure, he was curious about the others, but not to the same degree. He wasn't going to go so far out of his way to find their descendants. Just hers. It just made no sense to me and seemed so incredibly forced. Even now, he doesn't seem like he's "in love" with her, he seems like he's just going along with marrying her to keep her safe as a promise to Lyle and Remilia.
I liked the story so much more before and just wish they'd kept it as it was. Everything just felt so forced and unnecessary. Now, he doesn't even see her as "Iris" and only as "Alice." Even she doesn't know who she is. It's just.... dumb.
He has the cutest familiars, though. All the bats and Remy. So cuuute!
I'm with you on the "he doesn't love her" bit.
I honestly think he doesn't LOVE her but in the newest chapter he said "to protect my CHILD".
He doesn't see her as a love interest just his kid... he's only going along with the "marry her" bit because he feels guilty about how it ended in the past and that like a dad having their daughter say the same thing he thinks it's "just a phase" right now.
How the hell is an Auto Travel feature useless for making money? I go to Town A and stock up on supplies then warp to Town Z to sell and restock then warp again to Town WhoCares and continue this cycle. So it only counts for places he's been, so what?? That is a merchant's dream ability. No travel fees, no travel protection fees for adventurers, no fear of monsters en route. The hell you mean no ability to make money??
Mc is so damn useless. Occasionally he'll show off some ingenuity or skill, but mostly, he's pretty useless. Rock on, Sister Ape.
I also hate how Lin Yuan seems to place human standards on them when they were never human to begin with, like telling Sister Ape to get over her habit of beating on her chest because it isn't something a cute girl should be doing.
Another thing I find annoying is how every monster turns into a hot girl with large tits, but the one guy who isn't the Mc looks like a wolf that just stood up. I love his swords, though. Wolverine is an awesome character. Even their newest ally is another girl, though at least this one is pretty well-proportioned.
Overall, I like the concept and premise of the story, but the execution ain't it. The translation isn't helping either, especially in the newest chapters. I'm done.
Why does Mangago always miss several pages when snagging uploads? Every chapter is missing a crapton of scenes, giving everything a choppy feel. Not to mention the straight up wrong chapter uploads. It's getting quite old. This keeps happening in a lot of the manga I read. I wish I could find a good place to this, but nowhere seems to have it that isn't a paid site. Justice for us poor people!
