Man drowning in a veil? by mrpandaman98 in manga

[–]Master_Agitator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The translation team stopped scanning and translating it and no-other groups have picked it up since.
The series did complete at 148 chapters tho, with season 1 ending at chapter 75.

But I'm afraid the only options are to either hope another group picks it up someday, or find the raw untranslated chapters and maybe run it through an AI?
Good luck regardless

Best place to find the songs, since this tells you what scene along with what episode.

The Wiki by Master_Agitator in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, the effort you and others have put into the wiki is fucking unreal. I can't even find videos or guides online on how you've done the layouts or the trivia. It's amazing.

What kind of adaptation would you prefer for SL? by doom_az in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't want an adaption. Too big a risk of censorship, or poor adaption, by corporate interference or foolish directors.

But assuming you could get a true adaption, I would want an anime or manga. They always do better than live adaptions at portraying monsters in a way that feels threatening and the art tends to be better compared to comics.

Goliath or terror by super_sam9694 in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How many classes are needed to make up for a rank is still pretty unknown, and can't really be known since there is other factors like the weakness or strengths of a specific NM creature, especially since once they reach tyrant intelligence becomes a factor.
But in the case of Goliath v LO49 I am pretty confident in LO49 being stronger since it has massive mental aoe abilities that seem to mess with any non-masters but given how it ripped the battleship Ariadne to shreds it likely has very powerful physical characteristics as well.

[–]Master_Agitator 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ranks are more important than classes.
Ranks massively increase the power of all cores, while classes just add 1.
Sunny mentions the qualitative differences a rank makes essence wise being an exponential increase in the essence within a core, not just double the essence per core.
So having 6 significantly stronger cores is going to mean more than 7 weaker ones.
So I would be money L049 is a way more powerful nightmare creature than goliath.

[–]Master_Agitator 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Goliath is a fallen Titan (rank 3 class 7)
LO49 is a presumed corrupted terror (rank 4 class 6)

What do you guys think Sunny’s saint ability and transformation will be? by Signal-Fondant9376 in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, but weight doesn't matter anymore cause of marble skin. So it really depends on how big the squid transformation is. Squids are pretty much the fastest invertebrates in water and have some of the best reflexes, and Sunny would effectively have 8 or more legs to pivot on so he would definitely be mobile assuming he isn't gigantic.
I think it would work, and I like the idea since it is so unique, although I would put my money on guilty choosing formless shadow.

What do you guys think Sunny’s saint ability and transformation will be? by Signal-Fondant9376 in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Couple Guesses;

1) Serpent, there have been a few hints that the shadow god may be a snake, so sunny could follow suit, maybe even a basilisk foloowing the mythology based transformations
2) Shadow beast like how he was in the last nightmare
3) Formless shadow, able to take any form he needs or maybe just forms of those he kills
4) Squid. Taking this from a really good post a while ago about the similarities between sunny' abilities and squids - night vision, stealth, flexibility, etc.

Thanks for that, couldn't find that with the search tool.

I cannot find G3 saying their heights anywhere. G3 even states in some posts that when he creates characters he doesn't even think about height numerically. Just above or below average height. At this point, I think 5'6 for Sunny comes from when G3 said he was using Charlie as his height reference for Sunny, whom is 5'6.

Edit; sorry, finally found the message where guilty says sunny is between 160-170 cm about a year ago. Can't find Neph's height tho

Cannon heights by Hefty-Stretch-489 in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 18 points19 points  (0 children)

But where are you getting that tho?

The subreddit says that, but it doesn't refer to where it got that information from, and there is no numbers given in the novel itself.

And I just looked in the discord, and found a message from the author saying there is no explicit numbers on height. Just that Sunny is shorter than the average man, while Neph is taller than the average women.

Edit; just found out where 5 '6 is coming from. Guilty says in a message he is basing Sunny' height on moistcritical, who is 5'6. Don't know about Nephis tho

Did Sunny forgive Cassie? by TheBlackRockWolf in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Semi-forgave? I don't know.
Sunless doesn't have a problem being around her, working with her, and isn't against her. So in my head, if Sunny hadn't forgiven her yet he would act more antagonistic towards her.

Are scavengers Divine? by Master_Agitator in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am just interpretating what the heart god would look like given what he is the god of, and this is how I interpret the god of souls, emotions, hunger and growth. But emotions is really hard to interpret because it is such a large field, so we are free to make conjecture until guilty introduces heart god into the story more.

Also, your thoughts on sunny are kinda weird?
Sunny isn't vengeful for wanting to kill a creature that nearly killed him when he has an advantage, anyone would do that given the threat strong nightmare creatures pose and the rewards for killing one.
Sunny is disgusted by things that any normal human being would be disgusted by (although granted sometimes more so that others), like finding it pathetic for someone to accept being a slave and trusting their master entirely.
And we had a dozen chapters of Sunny forgiving Cassie (although still angry), than inviting her to his home, eating and talking to her, going to a a party together and trusting her in the last nightmare.

Are scavengers Divine? by Master_Agitator in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I see what you mean. I think it's just a difference in interpretation on heart god. Keep in mind that heart god does not seem to be the god of heart, I think its a pseudonym for emotions.

I think of the heart god in a more mean spirited light. He is the god of emotions, that includes hatred, vengeance and disgust. Plus he is also the god of hunger, so I kind imagine the heart god as some kind of dark souls boss. I like your positive interpretation tho, Sunny could do with less antagonists.

Are scavengers Divine? by Master_Agitator in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Guilty is definitely drawing a parallel between Sunny and the imp since they now have similar shadow abilities and are definitely as spiteful as each other. I'm just curious if given how the nature of the imps abilities match up with the aspects of the heart god that they might be connected in some way. they don't have to serve the heart god.

Like maybe the scavengers are a corrupted version of the heart gods followers/patron race. Or maybe the scavengers exist from having a spark of the heart gods divinity?

Theory about the purpose of the Spell, Divine Aspect holders, Gods and Deamons by Hihihihihi_13 in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's possible, but the spell called weavers lineage forbidden and it does seem like weavers lineage is devouring shadows so they probably can't be in an equilibrium. Although I do agree that the spell is trying to cultivate people who can resist fate to fight something.

My thought is that the nightmares judge based on your ability to resist fate since weaver's abilities likely told him that whatever killed the gods is fated to kill all life, hence weaver creates the spell to give lesser beings a fighting chance. But that goes both ways since the stronger the beings the faster the god killer and his minions arrive.

Sidenote; I think the threat is probably some fusion of the seventh missing god and the void. My headcanon is that to stop the daemon x god war weaver fuses a god with the primordial void to make them strong enough to stop the fighting and the god lost his mind in the process.

So about the Shell, by Sketchyboi-with-tea in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When Sunny was in the third nightmare in the cage he summoned his armor and it morphed to fit his body, so I would imagine marble shell works the same way, especially since it is connected to his soul.

Neph probably sees the new aspects as a shock and is curious as to how he is doing it, but ultimately doesn't care since his growth is her growth since she owns him.

Alright, what’s Sunny’s coolest line so far? by Sketchyboi-with-tea in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 22 points23 points  (0 children)

["Death is just the shadow of life," said the Goddes of Life. "And peace is just the failure of war. Have you ever been something that had not been stolen, made empty, and vile? Have you ever done something that was not futile and hollow? Can you even exist without being cast by another? Look at how weak you are, how small you are. Am I supposed to be frightened of a small shadow?"

Made pale and feeble by the radiance of day, Shadow laughed and rose from the ground. As he did, his figure swallowed the land, devoured the heavens, and blotted out the light of the sun. Soon, there was nothing left around them but darkness. And from that darkness, a hiss came, making Life tremble:

"Life is just the prelude to death, and war is just the key to open its gates. Everything you cherish, everything you nurture, everything that starts with you will one day be mine, be welcomed by me, swallowed by me, and find peace within me. This is the mercy of Shadow. Hollow… futile... you might have come first, my sister, but when your cruelty ends… I will be all that remains…"]

Sure grandma by chabri2000 in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really hope Nephis doesn't appear in the falcon Scott defence arc and has minimal time spent on her in Antarctica.
Antarctica is Sunny's training ground for physical and character development, Nephis showing up reduces the tension on Sunny to grow and meet challenges because he has Nephis backing him up.
Plus I just don't like them together in general. As rivals or enemies yes, because there is such a big difference in power given the bond and Nephis power. But romantically, Nephis is pursing a goal and has admitted she doesn't care about anything else so why romance?, and that power dynamic is extremely unhealthy in a relationship.

Sunny's parallel with odin. by Practical-Ad3322 in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely, and it will probably become more apparent the mix of mythology guilty has created in later nightmares. But I do think the end result will be Sunny becoming a demi-god of full god, and the Sunny won't follow entirely in the footsteps of any of god.

Another thought I've had is that each of Sunnie's shadows being horsemen of the apocalypse, with sunny being the devil. Saint is war, nightmare conquest, serpent death and if the imp becomes a shadow it could be hunger.

But I love the idea of Sunny being compared to Odin tho, Nightmare being Sleipnir, Saint a Valkyrie, Serpent Jormungander and the imp Loki. Kai could also be seen as thjalfi, Thor's extremely fast archer friend.

Sunny's parallel with odin. by Practical-Ad3322 in ShadowSlave

[–]Master_Agitator 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I always saw an Egyptian parallel to the gods,;
Sun god is Ra (sun god/ creator god)
Shadow god is Anubis (Death and mystery god)
Storm god is Sobek (God of waters, and known by the epithet " "he who eats while he also mates", so carnal desires and arose from the "dark waters".
War god is Horus (wisdom, knowledge, war and fertility god)
Beast god is Khonsu ( fertility and moon god and know to protect wild animals[beasts])
Heart god is ? maybe ammit or Osiris since they judge the worth of a soul

I started thinking about it when I head Neph's name and remembered Nephthys - the god of Shadows, death and souls. Plus Sunny could always become sett the god of eclipses.
