| Finally the end of this Light Novel. I can say for sure that i loved reading this one. I started reading it after watching the episode 10 of the anime and i found the LN waaaay better (no surprises here) and i even re-read most of the volumes from 1 to 12. I enjoyed so much how the game aspect was done. Kumoko fought her way up (sometimes down) while discovering new skills and becoming stronger and stronger. She wasn't OP by any means in the beginning and had to work very hard to get at the point where she was a powerhouse. Not only this this is truly game like (in most RPGs you start very weak, but can become op latter), but also this is different from the Isekai trend of OP characters with OP powers having no difficulty in their new life. Unfortunately i can't say i like how things have ended. I don't like the whole word quest thing, i don't like how that world went back to be a "normal world" without all the stats and stuff like that and i don't like how White was forced to stay way from the demon lord before her end. I also dislike how D simply resolved everything. That was so anti-climatic. I was begging for her to not listen to Shun and simply send then back and let White resolve everything, but i knew it wouldn't be like that. D had already meddle with everything with the world quest and the fact that she basically invited them to teleport to her place showed that she would do something about the whole thing. It wouldn't make sense for her to meet with them just to send then back without doing a thing. If she were to do that then instead she could have simply not allowed them to reach her. I don't actually feel satisfied with this end, but i saw that the web novel has ended and fortunately translated to the very end. So now i'm going to see how different the web novel is. If someone wants the links for the web novel just message me. |

| I can't believe that it's really over. I'm going to miss this series. It was an ok ending. Things went in a different direction than I expected which I didn't like at first but it turned out better than I expected. The truth that D was actually the evil god did actually make a lot of sense which make it a lot easier to accept. I appreciate that we got pov chapters for pretty much everyone. Even if it reduced the amount of focus on White and her battles. I wished the final battle against D had White and Güliedistodiez a bit more involved but it was still a cool battle. I didn't like how White was forced to become D's maid but I guess that was unavoidable considering D's interest in White and I wish we got a little more of an epilogue instead of brief summaries. This was still an enjoyable ride. |

| I'm gonna miss Whites' own dialogues or whatever you might wanna call it. I really enjoyed reading her parts in this light novel. Totally worth buying all 16 of them. However, I did not like Schlain. Why are "heroes" always like that. Glory to demons and death to heroes is my way of going. |

| @InitialSaucer98 Sure, i'll message the links to you. |

| As expected, Yamada's actions really ended up ruining things. I had higher expectations for the fight between Guli and White, but oh well. Overall, it wasn't a great ending, although it was decent. As others have mentioned, it felt anticlimactic. |

| Guess I'll throw my hat into the ring. I just read through all of the light novel, and overall I had a good time with it. White's PoV was always the star of the story, and it was a bit disappointing that we barley got any of it at the end. A handful of the side character's PoV this novel was a little slow and boring to get through, but overall I thought the build up to the end worked well. Like others have echoed, I would have loved to have more emphasis put into the fight between White and Black. All we needed was to have a few intermissions where we returned to the fight to see Black getting powered up by the prayers of humanity, or White slowly getting her footing and turning from defense to offense. Nothing major was needed. It would have been nice to get Black's PoV during the fight at any point as well. But let's talk about that ending... I'm fine with how the events turned out, but the pacing in which it happened was horrendous. It felt kind of obvious that White was going to jump into the fray at the last second to fight D and save the side characters, but for that to happen in the span of a couple of pages, and then just immediately end the conflict and send off all the characters sentences later is disappointing. White literally spent half of the entire series working towards a specific goal, and when she achieves it there is absolutely no closure. There's no time spent on basking in the victory, no time spent to say good bye to Ariel, no time spent exploring any interaction with Sariel. White teleports in, swings at D a few times, D says she wins, then everyone teleports away moments later and White never sees any of them again. WTF? It was a fun series, but holy that ending took the wind out of my sails. But I guess it's very in character for White. Nai Waa~ |
