Who is your favorite ship in this series
AlexNG said: I understand your point, but the entire theme going forward is that Myne is going to tear down the oppressive society that restricts people to marry within their castes and usher in a new, more progressive age. We can already see that happening with her restructuring the orphanage, and using her knowledge to make life more enjoyable for people downtown. It's kind of reductive to claim that Myne HAS to be shipped with someone who has the same amount of mana was her, especially since status isn't a problem for Myne whatsoever. there is only one person in this list that she has any hope at all to have children with in the future. The list should really contain dukes and princes, not a bunch of commoners - but we haven't met any of them yet. I do agree with your second point though, this isn't a romance heavy show. We all know the real OTP is Myne/Books. |
AlexNG said: Sorry, when I said it "isn't a problem" I meant that in a mental/emotional sense. Myne doesn't see people with less/no mana as lesser than her, so I don't think it would deter her from pursuing a relationship with someone of a different status. And as for kids... the solution to that is pretty simple. Myne literally runs an orphanage. minniemoon said: It's kind of reductive to claim that Myne HAS to be shipped with someone who has the same amount of mana was her, especially since status isn't a problem for Myne whatsoever. The thing is, it's not a status problem, it is, quoting literal wording from the author's Q&A, a "medical fact" in this world. It's so important that people with magical abilities at some time during puberty acquire a sixth sense ability to feel which people are 'in their range'. |
AlexNG said: I think this because that's what she's been doing? Also they keep saying she's going to revolutionize society in the show? Like, a lot? She isn't doing any "drastic destablizing", but using the knowledge and what little power she has to make the world a better place. Anyway, this isn't the point of the thread. I was just trying to say that Myne worldview isn't restricted by the oppressive society she lives in, both in matters of altruism and of the heart.minniemoon said: but the entire theme going forward is that Myne is going to tear down the oppressive society that restricts people to marry within their castes and usher in a new, more progressive age. Also, why would you even think this? She wants to be a librarian, not a revolutionary. Her goal is to get her books, while protecting friends and family; this can be done by just finding a way into a position of power, without any drastic destabilizing action. |

I've stopped reading your spoiler when I realized than none of what you were writing had happened by part 5 vol 4 (included). I wrote that I was at the beginning of part 5 when I wrote that spoiler so you should have known that I haven't reached the end of part 5 right now, yet you casually quoted me and posted your answer in a spoiler without mentionning that it would be a spoiler for ME as well, not just for non japanese LN version readers in the thread. (spoiler part 5 vol 4 ) if so, pretty bold of you to do that considering that I'm often way more advanced in stories than the western community since I read the original works; so spoiling you in retaliation on your favourite stuff could have been in the range of possibilities. Not like I'd do that kind of shit, but regardless, stop doing that it's annoying. |

Lookman373890 said: Yeah, to be fair, I'm not the biggest fan of the mana system in this show either. I just don't understand why kids factor into romance. Especially for Myne who's a modern, forward-thinking person. She literally runs an orphanage. She could just adopt.minniemoon said: I understand your point, but the entire theme going forward is that Myne is going to tear down the oppressive society that restricts people to marry within their castes and usher in a new, more progressive age.

I do agree with your second point though, this isn't a romance heavy show. We all know the real OTP is Myne/Books. it not that. it that is BIOLOGICYLY INPOSINLE for her to have kids with them. mana must be balanced to have kids . right now her own bother cant even balance her |
