Hindsight 20/20 man. I just don't see how you could say they are not hard working. Especially Androssi who had to kill an entire room full of other little girls over years just to get the "talent" of zahard's power.

Nah that was Ho, a regular. Their instructor, Ren, pretty much didn't react at all.

Erm, while we might be talking about the same events, i think the end comes down to the fact that you think they are lazy and I don't?

Ren joked about calling him a super genius or some shit since he was referred to as a genius for 'only' taking years to create his own first room IIRC.

Someone give this guy a couple hundred grand so he can hire assistants to get this shit rolling faster.

Ya and he did it in the most casual nonchalant way possible. The complete opposite of mind blown. I think you're grasping at straws here.

On the other hand he WAS in an artificial body so there weren't much faces to make reactions with and given Rens personality the only thing that slightly suprised him was when Yuri entered the scene, other than that he kept calm.
GIven Quants reaction... Quant was in the middle of a battle with Androssi (and his personality factor too) so obviously his reaction would be more visible, afterwards he was just duly noting that sharks cannot swim with the sardines.
Lero Ro was just like "looks like we have a monster", he was only really "shocked" when Baam manipulated shinsoo without having a contract with the Guardian (when he fucked up Hwan Ryun's eye).
I don't remember if YHS had a reaction, but I doubt he would have as he basically knew that Baam was an irregular
+ Show Spoiler +after writing the post I realize I didn't really have a point, but I wanted to write it xd

What guys? The chapters raws are allways released in the same 30 minute interval EVERY week and then mangacow has it up 1 hour or so later if they're fast, 2 if they're slow.
The interval is 16:00-16:30 CEST if you wanna use the TL timezone thingie, no point checking this thread for it and there won't be early releases like there are with the others, ToG has allways been really consistent

Compared to some of the other people in the story? Especially compared to Baam? Yes, they are.

hate to bump this on release day again but is there any anime similar to this? I haven't watched an anime in so long and I don't really read mangas but this one was so interesting been hooked ever since. Don't think I would enjoy reading a bunch though. I need some visuals ( Besides TOG tahts just too awesome)

I think he's quite on point. You don't have to emotionally react to acknowledge that something was fucking impressive.

Yes, so you think. The whole point of this discussion is that I obviously don't think so and am interested to see why you think differently. But you don't seem at all interested in my perspective so nvm.
Also, the new chapter is out~!!!

Not a great chapter, but I'm really just so happy that ToG is back.

Any ideas on who this best E grade regular is? I remember ppl thinking that Laure was one of the top 5, and I did as well until i read the last chapter.
