What’s the throwback 4D chess moment in bookworm?
I think I missed it. I can’t think what it could have been.
I think he talks about [P2V2] mind reading scene. I don't think Ferdinand predicted that far. More like story had a checkov's gun planted all the way there.
Miya Kazuki planted so many Checkov's guns that she could win any ditter match.
P5V10
Then he didn't have the full G-book and that part of the knowledge went to Rozmyne about dying her mana, and that she can't recover her color naturally.
I am still missing something.
Tap for spoiler
What’s the importance about her being dyed in this volume? Or is it just that she is now stuck with the goddesses colour.A few volumes back Hirschur mentioned that children with the devouring / children of Ewigeliebe are born without colour. As a result Myne was having a crisis in that scene as she got dyed by Ferdinand in the mind reading. And it was important for her to be a zent candidate, etc.
Also any idea about what Sylvester, Karstead and Ferdinand were going on about at the end? Or was it just implying that something happened between Myne and Ferdinand because she added him to the Ahrenbach foundation which is for the archducal family.
The answers you seek are in volume 11.
Spoiler for P5V10 logical conclusion for the content in V11 (I am reading pre-pub)
In Volume 11 They all need to do post war clean up and all the politics that are tied to running a country.
We had 2 volumes of straight action and now we will get to usual slow pace for some long awaited worldbuilding.
So the long wait for me…
If only I could invent time travel. Forget fixing the worlds problems, I could use it to read bookworm sooner.
There is a way but the price to pay is your sanity.
I had sanity?
As long as I can still read it. It would be horrible to go through with it and find I can’t read it.
Futurama - The Scary Door - The Last Man On Earth
The MTL - you go to the japanese web novel and you put it through some sort of an AI system. The rice field will haunt you.
The j-novel prepub - you will train your patience and self control to the heights you have never imagined.
Stay as you are - AoB is one of the fastest novels to be coming out with the new volumes.
Learn japanese - this one made sense in the part 4 now just at the end of the series IDK
I am talking about
P5V10
the registering of the citizen coins, which so far is nothing more than some world-building element in the story without any real purpose, but here it allowed Ferdinand to ignore the god-given task to play his own game and trap Gustavio. And this didn’t feel unplanned at all. The coins get mentioned throughout the story again and again so we don’t forget them. And I believe the first time they are mentioned is in Part 1 during her sister's baptism or at the very latest during her own.We also get shown Ferdinand’s MO of letting people play by the rules of one game while playing himself a completely different game entirely when he had his Ditter game against Dunkelfelger. I have to re-read those parts but if memory serves he pulled the same stunt by having Dunkelfelger think they’re playing Speed-Ditter while he started to make Treasure-Stealing-Ditter moves. Or he turned it into the latter. Either way his move in this volume was foreshadowed and not an ass-pull.
