I wonder why World teacher not getting published as Light novel already, it's an amazing series, but seriously why ?
I guess Japanese don't like MC that OP and more like MC that need to fucking kiss all the heroine to become strong .

edit : Oh...the series not even a years old yet, I think I can take that as an excuse for not picking it up.

Seriously, the amount of books released everyday(i.e web and light novels) seems like a bottomless sea. It's theoretically and practically out of the question to stay up to date. It might takes weeks even months to notice sth which may not be run-of-the-mill. I think World teacher getting published might be just matter of time.

二度目の人生を異世界で

Spoiler for Summary:

Well, as far as I can remember. The story is about Kugito Renya dying at the age of 94, meets up with a loli baba goddess who sends him to an alternate world to stop some resource draining due to "bad world design". Somewhere along the line, however, I don't know how Renya is supposed to stop the resource draining (either due to my terrible japanese or the text didn't explain clearly.)

The cheats that he gets are kinda lame because he is able to choose it from the get go (oi loli goddess, I want this abcdef skills, give me these skills), and he gets them just like that.

Well he gets sent there as a "lost person" (which is somehow recognized by the locals there are people like him who are lost), and he rescued two girls. I read up to around chapter 40+, where he's currently a F ranked adventurer (who incidentally defeats a demon, and a demon can wipe out a village, supposedly) doing a quest of "teaching students".

The teacher job is usually held by a 2nd or 3rd rate adventurers, not the cream of the crop adventurers, and sometimes students are capable of beating the teachers. He gets called in as a request by another acquaintance to "teach the students".

Since his skills stats are very high, especially in swordmanship back in Japan, he beats the arrogant students within a inch of their life, and tells them they should cut down on their snobbish behavior.

It's an okay series with an okay narrative which is picked up by a publisher. The start is really horrible though (Protagonist selecting his own cheats? Urgh.)

異世界迷宮の最深部を目指そう

Spoiler for Summary:

Read up till about 30 chapters. The MC's real name rarely comes up so I didn't take record his name down, but his alt name is Christ Eustacia. So one day he finds himself teleported into a dungeon and gaining the "status" ability. He's able to see stats in a RPG manner, but the world is harsh and isn't game like.

He nearly dies in the dungeon early stages (duh no weapons, no nothing), and one of the locals attack him for being naive (probably going to rob him or something). He has a strange passive skill (denoted with a [???] skill), which activates whenever he gets confused or mentally affected.

He will be instantly calm and ready whenever the ??? skill activates, but as a penalty, a [Confusion + 1.00] state is added to him. To put an example, [Poisoned +1.00] is enough to kill him with enough time. Up to the chapter 30+, he has a [Confusion + 8.XX] or so, and he's trying hard to keep this stat in check for fear of some crazy happenings (like going berserk or insane). He managed to deal with the initial problems with some help from a mysterious character who seemed to be also able to use the [status] skill.

He's a pretty careful character who teams up with Dia (a character who uses the masculine Ore and looks like a bishounen but he thinks Dia could be a girl).

This world is harsh and anything can happen. Even though he didn't really make any mistakes, he overdoes the monster hunting and attracted the dungeon's hidden boss guardians of lvl 10 and 20.

Lvl 10 boss (female girl) didn't participate, but lvl 20 (shadow humanoid creature) fought MC and Dia.

He cuts the shadow boss repeatedly after physically boosting himself with his trump card spell, but that fails because the boss regenerates himself.

MC then gets repeatedly hit with blind and other abnormal status, causing rapid deterioration to his mental status, which he repeatedly use the [???] skill by thinking the worst thoughts possible and forcefully activating it, with the result of extensive gain in [confusion] but with the effect of clearing his mind and abnormal mental status.

He desperately uses his next move, by casting ice magic, spending all his mana to 0. He grits his teeth and continue to supply the spell with his HP, burning it to less half of his HP.

That was certainly effective, but it wasn't enough to beat the boss, and Dia gets his/her right hand cut off as well as getting cut into two. Things really looked like it's game over, but Dia activates his/her passive skill which (I think) damaged her mana circuits permanently and cast 2 spells which restores her vitality so he/she doesn't die and brings MC's hp to full.

Shadow boss finally gets defeated, but after that Dia retires in a hospital and a new girl (MC buys a slave girl because of there's a rumored pervert checking her out and in a moment of weakness buys her) replaces her position. MC does mention that he's trying to find his/her right hand, but I'm not sure if dia's hand is going to get restored.

A pretty good read, but it sort of frustrates me because the plot goes in an oddly realistic progression like something in real life, but it is an event that ends up in a very annoying conclusion. There's some character growth but MC is a bad state right now. With him, it's so gloomy especially because of Dia's conclusion.

World teacher is kind of terrible in chapter 30-40 (probably why the ranking for it dropped pretty hard back then), was sort of passable in the early chapters, so if it's picked up, the middle chapters needs to be re-written.

[amatsunagi]

World Teacher has chance to be published, that is, if it managed to survive the second round selection of Narou X Overlap.

I want Saikai nagai koto nagai koto to be published as well~~ along with Seirei Gensouki~

I actually read a bit of it a while back but eventually got tired of something it was doing and dropped it. To go on a spoiler spree and explain why:

Spoiler for :

Basically, I got tired of the forced drama. Alright, so the main heroine loses an arm (with no replacement), the second one is brainwashed to wanting to die readily and is also a 5 year old clone or something, and the third loses her eyesight after being possessed by a boss the MC kept trusting over and over for no reason. But all that's fine and dandy, I can deal with that.

I started getting annoyed when the MC himself got brainwashed. I trudged that painful part of the story, and when it started hinting that the MC's crew were actually reincarnations of some sort of crazies and that was mentally destroying them, I just stopped. I couldn't take any more of the inane drama.

Also, the published version changes his name to something else. "Christ" being too offensive or whatever, even though an easily recognizable name was supposed to be the entire point.

[Rahuman]

I'm in Elina chapter in world teacher now.......
My hearth, my fucking hearth, it hurt so bad, the pain, oh my god, oo~ooh the pain, I want to cry.

[Breimoon]

Is there any novel about druids yet?(MMORG style if possible or like Mushoku Tensei)

[bludvein]

Spoiler for 異世界来ちゃったけど帰り道何処？:

I really can't wait for the next chapter. It's interesting how Fox came up with a method of "quitting human." I thought for a while there he intended to intentionally trigger a miasma runaway to get a race-change, but instead he spam-levels and then throws away the limiter(status) by going back to a state in which it didn't exist. Hopefully turning him into a ??? cheat character. Kind of a gamble, since he can't get it back if it didn't work right, but actually better. Even the demon kings, as strong as they are, have limits imposed on them.

[laon]

Finally read up to the latest chapter of 転生したらスライムだった件 (Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken). Really nice one with amusing MC though I sometimes question the selection of character highlights and the final arc was kind of a dreg. Though now we got to the "side story", it's getting interesting again.

Hope that the side story continue on for a long time since there are a lot of things the author can cover.

Time to check out some new recommendations from here~

[Kaito Yamakage]

Final chapter of World Teacher volume 10 done, I wonder which direction it will go in the next volume, maybe some issues with D and Noel's village nobles, or awakening their daughter to the Sirius cult.

Spoiler for vol 10+?:

After whatever events happen in that village next seems like it will be an arc related to Emilia/Reusu and the wolf tribe, then I think the hidden elf village is near that area as well, so that will probably mix into the 10 year limit. Elf harem member~

Title: 異世界の迷宮都市で治癒魔法使いやってます
Romaji: Isekai no Meikyuu Toshi de Chiyu Mahoutsukai Yattemasu
Alternative Title: Working as a healer in a Dungeon Town in another world
Link: n2740ca

Spoiler for :

I've actually been following this one for a long time, but never brought it up due to it being fairly laidback with no real developments, but it recently got published, so I figured why not bring it up.

The novel is essentially slice of life of the protagonist raising the loli dark elf and trying to manage his sex life (that he doesn't have) while remaining a cool master in her eyes. While he does get into fights in the dungeon, they're extremely short and clearly not the focus. The protagonist is cheat healer, but it's all he has going for him; he can't fight worth a damn. He casts healing spells that are considered archbishop class easily, but tries to avoid doing so to avoid attention from the church.

One thing I really like about this one in particular is, while there are no shocking or sudden developments, the author makes you know what the protagonist is thinking, why he's thinking it, and how he reaches the conclusion he does. He makes mistakes in judgment, tries to use to head to solve problems to varying success, and tries to be an overall good person due to the elf loli, but you can probably at least agree that it was reasonable he made that decision at the time. I consider his thought process refreshing compared to a lot of things I've been reading (giving the conclusion then explaining later, or just not explaining at all), and I would call his chains of logic perfectly reasonable.

That one was pretty good though I kind of regret reading it now, that most recent chapter cliffhanger... -.-'

Amusing seeing a healer MC and the comedy was pretty good, it wasn't a very deep series, though that is a good point in itself, a pretty light hearted series.

[laon]

Tried Nidome Jinsei, it start slow but the twist is kinda interesting. Kinda bored with this template though (reincarnation -> "adventure" guild).

Spoiler for da twist:

The 94 years old MC who "died in peace" turned out to be a Japan honorary national treasure of Sword Saint, who in his youth served as an assassin in China (930+ kill), then served in WW (3700+ kill) and retire to build dojo all around Japan until he's recognized as Sword Saint. Total body count when he died being 5800+ which mean he killed around thousand people more after WW)

Tried Slime Tensei Monogatari, it turned into full blown chuunibyou + fighting shounen dream later on lol. Got a bit too dramatized for me too.

Spoiler for MAJOR SPOILER:

Our resident slime turned out to be an inheritor of "Black Knight" Ozwald's power, of course the black knight also has a rival known as Georgius the White Knight and Oz meet him by chance when he took guildmaster's request to investigate a monster tournament. After this and that, they finally face each other and when Oz seemingly lost and got himself killed he suddenly (but of course) gain a "God System" skill. Oz finally succeed on killing George (btw, George is a she, full name Alma Georgius)... Nanto! She's actually not inherently as bad as everybody thought (except us as readers who saw this miles away) and I stopped reading by this time but from the flow it seems that Oz is going to inherit Alma title as Maou. Yep.

It was good when it's still like a lite re;monster...

I stopped reading for the same reason.

Spoiler:

I was actually fine with the whole brainwashing stuff and I felt the lead up to the closure of the arc was wonderful.

But after all that emphasis on the characters growing stronger both mentally and physically, they threw it right out of the window soon enough. They split them up again and even put a timeskip in between. God knows what it became like after that. I mean, where the hell did my character development go to? Does this author not know how to advance this story without some stupid drama splitting everyone up?

I noticed the time period of which the whole main heroine/protagonist cast is together is fairly short overall.

Regarding 二度目の人生を異世界で:

Spoiler:

I think the protagonist of the story is pretty fun to follow because of the crazy, sadistic moments he occasionally shows here and there. Having a yandere(? not really sure if it can be classified a yandere or extreme loyalty) maid and a mad scientist being in the heroine cast helps a lot as well.

Anyone read 黒の星眷使い ～世界最強の星眷使いの弟子～ yet? Its been on the top ranking for a couple days now. Just started it and I kinda liked it.

[bludvein]

I have.

Spoiler for ...:

Kind of generic, but it has potential. I like that the MC isn't really out for revenge, despite getting nearly murdered by his family. I also like that it isn't a "hide my power" thing. What I didn't like was the irrational antagonists and that it expanded into a harem too quickly. Felt like the author was just going for a checklist there. Also, the MC seems to be too overpowered. Seriously, what does he even need school for when he can already cast SSS-rank magic and has a contract? I can't imagine the library is that good.

It could go either way for me at this point.

[Senia]

My reaction to the latest 黒の魔王 chapter can be summed up as:
HAHAHAHA THERE IS GOING TO BLOOD, A FOUNTAIN OF BLOOD.

Spoiler:

Is it actually going to be possible to end this story without the heroines killing each other?

[Honoakari]

Spoiler for 黒の魔王, latest chapter:

Kurono is finally together with the best girl in the series... I'm speechless...

He'll have to think up some really good explanations though, and not only for Lily and Fiona. Personally, I can't wait to see Nero's reaction.

Don't worry, Mia-chan will teach Kurono everything he needs to know about managing a harem. Probably.

I can see the "fourth blessing" being put to good use in the future. Kurono still has a score to settle with other female Apostles, after all.

Judging by the comments.......I better get started on 黒の魔王 lol......4xx chapters holy lol......and 異世界来ちゃったけど帰り道何処？ took me a week+ to catch up............

[bludvein]

Spoiler for 異世界来ちゃったけど帰り道何処？:

Uh oh.

Well the plan worked after a fashion, but cutting out the middle man(status) means Fox has no idea how to use his abilities anymore. Who wants to bet an attack happens soon?

Also, what do you think are the chances of the childhood friend being one of the ones sent there by God? It would be a cliche development in some other series, but here it will probably end up with her tortured or killed.

Would you mind telling, how many Harem Member does he have now?
Also can you describe them and tell their history

* i did stop reading in chapter scout vs adventurers *

[Honoakari]

Would you mind telling, how many Harem Member does he have now?
Also can you describe them and tell their history

Spoiler for :

Lily - Half fairy, half human. Obsessed with Kurono. She is usually in loli form, but when things get serious, she can switch to a more grown-up form. She is the first person that showed affection to Kurono ever since he came to this new world.

Fiona - Blue-haired magician. Obsessed with Kurono. Her 必殺技 is a giant, golden fireball. Fell in love with Kurono after a certain gory development in volume 13.

Neru - First Princess of Avalon. Obsessed with Kurono. She was originally a pure, kind-hearted girl, but became ruthless after having to deal with many "obstacles" keeping Kurono away from her. Her brother, Nero (First Prince of Avalon), hates Kurono with a passion...

There was also this elf girl (receptionist at the adventurer's guild in Spada) that confessed to Kurono, but he turned her down. There's no way he'd be able to settle down peacefully with a girl in these turbulent times.

...There's also a certain other girl, but I really don't want to give spoilers on this one.

* i did stop reading in chapter scout vs adventurers *

Keep reading, it gets better.
