Comment on ChapterMIGHTIEST MELEE MAGICIAN - Chapter 25

Who would call it magic academy exam show off ????
That just barbaric act
Magician are considered above everyone in terms of maintaining calmness and elegance and for their highter ment*al performance
Authors these days just thinks boom bam will please the reader
There is no dignity or the clasic "sage like " feeling from Magician of manhwas these days
I miss those old days mangas and manhwas when mages where considered noble humans who have understanding of the world itself and from whom normal ppl ask for help in their hard time and Magician generously helps those who in need (of course there are bad ones too but thats same with normal humans too who want to take advantage of mages)
So my main point is new authors should take some inspiration from old professional and its not a thing to be feel bad about everyone learns from their seniors and for better results its nothing to be shamed about
Bringing back the orignal defination of MAGES WARRIORS OR other races would be considered a good step to be honest for this industry

@Abiss

Most of these types of stories, I'm usually left wondering the following things:

1) Why are they in school in the first place when it seems that both their training and talent aren't really being cultivated by the school but rather by their own work outside of the school setting. Also, more often than not, the school itself becomes an obstacle to their growth.

2) Why are they doing competitions? It always seems to be some some lame excuse for the MC to show off here but honestly the "why" tends to be flimsy at best and the writer often stacks events, one in front of another. "Oh, here is an event to qualify for the school and here is another inter-grade competition. Here is another school wide competition and yet another country wide competition. Let's not forget the qualifying round for intercontinental competitions and then finally the intercontinental competition itself."

3) The safety in these types of competitions seems flimsy. Oh, you are going to transport them away when the vest takes enough damage huh? What happens when the vest takes way more damage than it can handle the and the student dies before being saved? What happens if they get their arms, legs, or head cut off? Massive explosion? Ever heard of shrapnel? Concussive force? Air overpressure? Burst eardrums and eyeballs? I'm sure all of that damage will be centralized into their damage vest. 🙄

@Prinzinc 1) Lazy authors. It's possible to learn magic in a schoolroom setting, but most don't bother depicting the class time. "The Great Mage of the Hero’s Party Reincarnates" (reincarnation with memories in the same world) and "Life of a Magic Academy Mage" (reincarnation with memories into another world) are the only two magic school stories that talk about. And they manage to make it interesting.

2) Competitions are a thing in some schools between classes or clubs, and of course between different schools (think sports in the real world), but most authors way overplay it. At least this work made it a big international deal, so the weight on the kids makes sense.

3) That never made any da** sense to me. I like the ones where there's mana barriers or various shields that prevent lethal damage. Sometimes they're called "virtual realms". "GREAT WISE MAN'S BELOVED PUPIL" calls it a dream realm.

@Abiss I maybe late on this but I think it would be cooler and more popular if writers came up with their own unique magic systems. Say for example I seen a writer on YouTube create a magic system with trees and bones and other magics are going to be added also with a world map. There are taboos also linked to the magic that are looked down upon also. And the magic I want to say incorporates the souls. But that's jus my opinion. I don't know if anyone is goin to see this I just had to give my view of thus also no complaining tho from me pepe sticker

@Cruel Void There's real world beliefs and rituals that use what you're saying, so it's not like authors won't have a template if they do the research.

But it's easier to go with a version of what's entered popular culture through various media.

Cruel VoidBattle-Hardened·2 years ago

@Galactic Navy Officer yea I agree with that but they need to step out of following the trend and make their own trend.

PrinzincBattle-Hardened·2 years ago

@Cruel Void There are plenty novels that do, however their magic systems aren't nearly as familiar, interesting, popular, or even that different.
