*inhaling* it was that manga image for sherry that gave ma an impression that she's an Asian character, I pictured her to be wearing kimono like Nezuko(without pink eyes) in the future with Hugo, but now thanks to you that dream is forever lost in the void, 

Interesting. I don't see any Asian in her myself.

And I don't have a plan to suddenly drop Japanese culture in a Western fantasy world. I hated it at Necromance so I don't think I'm going to do it here.

I mean they can exist away from the main continent like the Akavirian continent in Elder scrolls, That is incase if you needed them to exist all of a sudden after reading something that inspires you to do as such,  

you know you did described her with straight black hair right? that's pretty synonymous with the traditional asian beauty... the freckles (which is primary an irish thing) aside.

What story was it?

The trending Sword Saint

A gentleman orc like the MC of that orc manga written by the same guy who wrote MT.

Hugo will feel like a failure for not being there when she needs him. More punishment for his act of cowardice. 

The orc, of course, takes great joy in watching her grow to be a young lady with big boobs, just like her mother. 

but then erika won't go on a anti-magic golem army rampage! nor conquer the continent with air ships!

One question, ForestDweller. Will this story just become despair porn, or will Hugo move forwards and grow into the character originally envisioned? Isekai parents dying is a common trope, but NTR, more death, and an empty broken MC would take this into a dark Isekai territory that abuses the characters. It has been a great story so far, but I wanna know it's going to become despair porn instead of the story of a failure growing beyond his failures and becoming the person he wanted to be.

Well writing Felicia backstory now kinda redundant because ww just finish her arc and she already get characters development, you should write her backstory in the middle of the arc right before the climax like One Piece did. 

Ha, that's my original plan until @loshi1505 convinced me to change it.

i gave another suggestion besides that...

also suggested that if there wasn't a flash back during the climax, it could be better for it to be in conversation format with hugo... >_>

Unfortunately, conversation form won't cover all the things I want to write in the flashback since Felicia will naturally summarize things.

I've heard of it.

I've started watching it. So far its good.

Okay.

> Might just make a character like that to NTR Hugo.

please make it some random girl and not main cast in this case.

thots begone!

I originally planned to have the whole arc happen after he reunites with Sherry.

But then again, this tragedy won't happen if he's with her. Maybe he'll still have his PTSD but Sherry will be there to help him out.

On the other hand, it could mean he'll overcome that PTSD earlier since 

Story popularity wise, Hugo overcoming his weakness earlier is better, but story-wise, it's more meaningful for him to do it later, after he stumbles not just once, but twice.

And having Felicia earlier is better for her character development as well.

Why should I? I already read that part a lot of times.

good question, i would think to see the pacing the anime has as opposed to it's WN/LN, or manga format. videos tend to have a little extra to that medium that's often lost in the other formats.

however the bigger question is why not? the reasoning you've had previously is gone now. so why not waste some time on something enjoyable?

I don't think I'd enjoy it to be honest. 

that's quite the assumption. is there a basis for it? like something you noticed in the previews? because so far i think it's quite well done. and i see little reason why the quality would drop seeing how far the LN has been published. unless there's budget issues. the VA's sound fine, the animation quality is good. the only concern i can think you might have is filler, but that again seems very unlikely due to where the LN is at.

pffft, most ironic part of the 1star reviews, they're all based on 'the novel isn't my taste'. which in non-edgy teen speak would mean anywhere from 2star to 4star reviews normally.

kids these days i swear. *insert get off my lawn meme here*

Well, it's enough to kill my desire to write. At least for this story, since I just updated a long abandoned fanfic of mine thanks to a comment popping up out of nowhere, telling me I should update.

That's a useful review as proof that people would really rather have the usual isekai MC over whatever Hugo is.

It's also an example how one star reviews can dissuade people from reading your story.

She is from that villainess show right? Haven't watched that yet.

What's OMORI?

Videogame

Oh.

Loshi pretty sure he used to live in modern society,Fiora can't color his views if his past life did

This is unrelated but, Will there be any graphical map of the world?, not detailed, just to see the world, so even a MS paint would do,

sure, if he was described as having a strong opinion in the first place... but he wasn't. therefor he's operating off the things he sees with his own eyes, and hears though others experiences. fiora most certainly colored his view of the matter, regardless of it being a lighter shade then fiora's pitch black dark.

It's nowhere near complete since I'm making it as the story goes along. If you still want to look at it, then I can PM it to you.

hmm, maybe it's a western audience issue then?

Most western isekai fans don't even care about any OEL isekai, with the swathe of translated Japanese isekai out there.

Though I say that, but I saw someone recommending one of the more popular stories on the site just the other day...

I only ever get recommended by one person outside here, and that person no longer reads this story. Even though he used to say how he believed my story should be much more popular...
