Post Volume 23 Spoiler venting
-
No one died even after battling against the creator god of all things and even the "complete" version of world destroyer dragon
-
No bad guys and everyone is forgiven...even the Destroyer dragon got a little reconciliation at the end there before its "death"
-
I enjoyed parts, but overall just felt like i went along just to finish for the sake of finishing the books
-
A few sections felt like it was there for the page count, and something that could be said in one paragraph were extended (maybe its the translation, but idk, it felt verry repetitive).
4.1 Something that felt unnecessary: Veldanava bringing those 3 souls back to life and others fighting them
-
I don't know why, but this pissed me off (my sword has two slots, no wait it has 3 slots looking closer, no wait, it has 4 slots looking closer)
-
No character growth in Rimuru always thinking he was weaker when he could deal with anything without much trouble (A major disappointment)
-
NO ONE DIED!
8 Forever a virgin? really? after that grand declaration before the reincarnation?
-
The final battle was just Rimuro eating all the attacks easily and one shotting this other god, didn't feel any tension, no stakes, just *boop* and done. (and before anyone says it was the combined true dragons that helped, Guy did something similar and that didn't end the incomplete evil god)
-
If the fights could have ended so quickly, wish it did early on so we could see more of the after match stories as I feel like the Author is much better at that compared to fights.
Rating for V23: 4/10 (official translation will likely change this, for better or for worse).
