I think you're being a bit hasty there, Abdula.
Yes, it's a shame that we MAY not see any further development between Glenn and Koinzell. However, I think that, instead of Lebelont and the rest of the traitors filling in the main antagonists' role, it will be Glenn's company of knights, the Seven Lances, and Ikfes.

Glenn's death didn't bother me that much in retrospect. What bothered me more was how the story seemed to skip right after he died, kind of making me feel his death wasn't such a big deal after all. It was an interesting story element to have the main antagonist suddenly die so relatively easily, but in the end judging that to be automatically a negative element like scalpel said. At least I don't pretend to know what kind of a conclusion the mangaka has in mind for the manga. I had been thinking it was all about Koinzell having his revenge, but who knows, after Glenn perishing so easily. Maybe it will turn into something else.
I totally understand you but on a positive side, at least its more unique than other mangas where they have thousands of dialogue/flashbacks/emotional fighting between the main character and the main antagonist. Seriously, everyone didn't expect Glenn to die just like that, but maybe they will further development with Glenn by using flashback's of his followers.Originally Posted by Abdula

This series just dropped a few notches in my book. If we are to believe that Glenn is really dead and Lebelont is going to step us as the series' main antagonists then I see no reason to continue reading this. The only way this series could possibly redeem itself is if at some point in the near future the seven heroes turn out to simply be the precursors to some other great villain, similar to what the fake lances of betrayal were in the beginning of the series and I'm not sure if even that would make a difference.
Glenn seemed too matured up and nice to really be a evil villan imo.
I think they decided to take this path to show the negative consequences killing Glen would cause. It is not an exaggeration that Glen was the only smart and sane leader among the fake heroes. Now that he is dead, the world definitely changed for the worse, all because of Koinzell's desire for revenge.
Peace.
It's mostly revenge no doubt, but there is also the fact the real heroes were completely defamed and the cowardly traitors treated as heroes. So, it's not nearly all about the past but as much about the present. And honestly some of these so called heroes are much better dead.
I really don't understand any of the complaints about Glenn's death. People often complain about something being too predictable. Something unpredictable happens, and suddenly this manga becomes a piece of crap not worth reading. Complete overreaction.
The most important part of chapter 75 was that chick that was saying something about a star that was supposed to bring hope or order is being swallowed up by the darkness. The repercusions of Glenn's death, and how they affect Koinzell are more interesting that Koinzell simply whacking Heroes around every volume seeking for revenge (though it was good as it was).
Chapter 76 is here:

Nothing much happened in this chapter, still trying to get the story back on its feet setting up the next arc. Curious what Glen's knights are going to be doing now, I think they'll have more exposure now since they were largely neglected since the prequel chapters.
I wonder what Princess Fanservice is up to now. Has she even heard of Glenn's death yet?

Maybe it's all the other manga I've been reading but some of the characters look really loli and shota in this one...
Lol, and you now come to notice this?
Anyways, so Glenn was the son of the Emperor... do you guys think Leblont is also?
Nah, of course I had noticed it before - I was hoping for some loli sex between Koinzell and Ato some time ago, after all. But at the beginning of this chapter when Koinzell and Ato were training I at first thought it was some Koinzell flashback as they looked both so overly young indeed.
It would certainly fit the image of jealousy but I don't think so. I guess there were a few signs before that Glenn was from higher circles but Lebelont gives me the impression of a man who started from a humbler setting but muscled his way up and is still trying to climb higher.Anyways, so Glenn was the son of the Emperor... do you guys think Leblont is also?
He could always simply end up being a bastard son or some shit like that. But yeah, I agree with your assesment of him.

Finally a new chapter, hopefully we'll get a better release rate. Aside from the crappy singing scene, I'm interested in the potential expansion of the story to this territory, with a war coming up and all.
The empire for sure doesn't look too stabile, with areas like this on the brink of a civil war. But I guess it makes sense, all thing considered. If the old war and the heroes were the only thing uniting it, now with the heroes dropping dead one by one, any local lord would lust after his neighbour's belongings.
I wish Koinzell and Ato got a little break from running. There hasn't really been any development whatsoever between them for a long time. I'm also starting to wonder what Princess Fanservice is up to now, with Glenn dead and everything. Even if she bought Koinzell's story, I doubt she wanted Glenn dead.

Princess Fanservice is back, though she didn't yet have enough frames to provide much service. I wonder just what she has been doing to still be only travelling. Surely she should have arrived already. It's not like she'd need to waste time avoiding pursuers like Koinzell.
Maybe she's simply been changing directions with all the recent news coming out.
Anyways, we really need some action... it's been a while.
