I don't get it. Miss sophie's pen name is famous, but keeps her real identity hidden. Yet this random shopkeeper knows who she is on sight, yet isn't on friendly enough terms to have an autograph already? It would have made more sense for her to simply have bought the stuff with her own money, claiming that giving the kid something worthwhile to read was a good investment anyway.

And just like that Theo has settled on his preferred department.

The model of fitness (and Tei)

>>280359726
working so hard you are left gasping for air on the ground seems like being dedicated to fitness for me.

Reading the newspaper instead of skimming is supposed to be impressive?

>>280357955
Wtfffffff more?

Something something slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

Well there's a surprise for second place.

And on this page of Theo choosing his path, that'll be all for today. They're still going and working on the rest of volume 10 for now. If someone wants to make more regular threads whenever chapter fragments get dumped they are more than welcome to.

They have a several pages long talk about it that I don't understand apparently including a tangent about monogamy and polygamy on top of the expected "literally every member of your family will object" issue. Best wait a week or two until the translation catches up.

I don't think it's a villain reveal, it's probably more about how they both plan on fixing the system, while Theo wants people to know the truth he also knows he can't just force it on everyone while Sedona just wants to tear it from the very roots

Midoreen is my second favorite after Sedona

>>280382395
I agree with this, this series tends to show things in a much more gray moral spectrum than just outright black and white

Thanks. I wonder how many of the students we will see in the future. This was a cull for the less important ones.

So to recap:
Theo and Ohgga: Liaisons
Aya: Guidance
Alv, Sohn and Yuki: Protections
Natica and Tzitzy: Cataloging
Peperico and Tzako: Personnel
Medina, Sae and Sytlah: Restorations
Tepel and Sophie: Judicial
Cauicha and Sumomo: Treasury
Kana and Patee: Facilities
Tei, Mihona, Madha, Kiraha, Mett and Tutull: ???
Also Archival, Juvenile and General Affairs haven't got anyone so far.

>>280393956
Nice butt

I've noticed that the final manga pretty much genderbent the main characters of the one shot.
I wonder if there is a Sedona equivalent in this

>>280394162
Is there a kafna with a bad butt?

>>280394251
Even the flatter girls have nice butts

>>280394162
A strong point for this artist.

Even the one shot is gorgeous to look at, this author is talented

>>280394233
One-shot Shio is pretty much just Sae without a cool mentor figure in her backstory. Also Cauicha in this is pretty much just Medina in personality.

>>280357915 (OP)
Oh, I was just wondering about this. The manga aggregator I usually use only has up to volume 7

>>280394572
>One-shot Shio is pretty much just Sae

And that's it. What did you think of it?
The one shot was published in 2014, while the main series started in 2017. I think the author used that time to really flesh out the worlbuilding beyond "there's a big library and MC likes books".

>>280394861

>>280394861
Thank you for posting.

Just finished reading this. The women in this series don't act like real women. More like what a male feminist think how women would act

>>280401799
Shut up Sumomo

>>280401799
I'm willing to give it a pass since they're mostly eye candy with Sedona being fine confectionery in her own right but I wont deny that this manga is pretty femimist

>>280401799
A male feminist would not have the stomach to portray a traditionalist society were the main purpose of women is to have children (unless they have extraordinary abilities that justify otherwise) without making the whole story about tearing it down.

>>280401799
In 99% of manga people don't act like real people so I don't get your point.

>>280405187
that's because this shit is a fantasy set in a pre modern setting, and the male feminist in question is still a nip

>ywn spar with Sedona and have sweaty sex

>>280360526
How far ahead are the raws?

Bump

>>280406333
Nah, this is more like the perspective of a rightwing woman, like tatcher or ayn rand; society traditionally coddles women (as opposed to feminists that think society puts them down), so women should endeavour to work hard and prove themselves worthy if they want to be respected as equals.

>>280410408
Fair observation.
Sedona is a prime example of that, she isn't a man hating femimist, but she works hard to be respected for what sbe is.
She isn't really traditionally feminine either, but she still exudes it naturally

>>280360028
Being Sakiya is suffering. I'll remember you while Theo and Aya make some Quarter Haupi, quarter Hyron, half Rakta babies. At least 3

>>280419453
>I am 100% convinced she's able to sense mana through people's gaze. Not just how she was able to sense Medina on the roof but now this from two professionals.
Yeah it's been pretty blatantly a mana thing since the roof moment but this just solidifies it.

Looking back at this and I'm still 100% on it being a hint about masked guy's backstory since it's being brought up in the volume he's introduced in and it has that similar style of speech. I'm guessing that he's basically a "what if Theo who didn't get the lucky meeting with Sedona that led to him being accepted by the village and grew increasingly bitter as a result" sort of character.

>>280419453

Hot off the presses and released 10 minutes ago, here's part 2 of the final chapter of part 2.

Oops, posted the second page first.

To the anon who guessed Mihona would end up in the Juvenile Office, you were absolutely correct.

And that would be all for this chunk of the chapter.

>>280427540

Nice Mihona tard-wrangling here.

>>280414889
I'm reading Volundio but that one is currently on hiatus until Sept-Oct for health reasons.

Whatever happened to Witch Hat Atelier? I know it got an official release which is usually the death knell for discussion on /a/ but surely that can't be the only reason why I never see it mentioned anymore.

>>280427473
>force her to join the office they want her to join
lol, what a bunch of shitheads

>>280428153
That's literally every trainee outside of the top three of each year.

>>280427540
What do you know. Looking back at the previous chapters where everyone had some experience with each office, she did get a highlight with the Juvenile Office. Even if it was the kids messing with her.

>>280427488
If I remembering correctly, Kiraha is one of Leoh's insiders, right? She's the one that had the mask that was handed off to the synthspirit back in volume 7/8.

>>280428569
You would be correct.

>>280427555
When will Madha bring and end to the Sumomo's Hydiah purity

But her goal here >>280427500 seems like the opposite of what Leoh was preaching, so I don't see what purpose unites all the masked conspirators.

>>280427540
Being assigned to Juvenile seems like a cruel punishment.
>you like literature, do you? I'll personally ensure that you spend the rest of your life reading nothing but children's books

>Masked Organization XIII
Whats their deal?

>>280431228
We don't know yet, on one hand they're stirring up racial/political tensions for their own ends and on the other their motto is preaching equality, spirits included. For all we know they're just a deniable group for all the racial leaders that want to tear into the library and other races but don't want blowback.

>>280431228
>>280431583
Appart from Bellir, could any of the other masks be characters we've already seen?
They seem confident that they have a lot of agents inside the library, maybe pic related is even one of the stewards?

>>280431228
The leader is a Kadoe with delusions of starting his own empire. Beyond that >>280430986 is right in pointing out that the goals of individual members may not align with that. Lord Bellir seems to be trying to take over the library through Cynthia for example, but the plans to destabilize the library would undermine that if they executed in a timely fashion.

He's really salty that she foiled his crappy kidnapping attempt.

>>280432571
>could any of the other masks be characters we've already seen?
I've been pushing Professor Edan since after chapter 18. It's been established that the masks didn't know about the connection between Sedona and Theo for years so I think they figured it out because of a slip-up on Theo's part. Namely looking for topics related to the book while in the library.

This page is the one where Edan gets to see what section Theo was in, and despite knowing now that Kiraha is also a spy, I doubt she herself was set to really monitor Theo by this point. I think Edan saw what Theo was looking up and got curious leading to someone mining records from either the Liason or Personnel offices to see if anything interesting surrounded Theo. Leading to an assignment for Sedona 7 years ago to a small village in the boonies.

>>280427555
CFbros we won

>>280432817
>Professor Edan
That makes sense. But we got exactly six conspirators, so I really want them to be from each of the major races (minus Syrrana).
If the leader is already Kadoe, that rules out any other Kadoe in my headcanon.

Then again we won't know for certain that the leader is Kadoe until we see his face, to me his hair looks suspiciously Kreyak.

>>280433139
He referred to the city of Aftzaak as part of "everything we used to own" while calling it by the old Kadoe name.

>>280428009

>The art is exceptional, but the story and pacing fell of a cliff a long time ago
So one of those stories you read once you've got a bundle of volumes built up to blitz through, got it.

>>280420370
The chapters cover pages are great at fleshing out the world without interrupting the story with exposition dumps, there's also this bit about Gagavitz

>>280433563
Oh damn, all of his questions really were hints about library character backstories.

>>280433409
>Bacab (castle) will be mine again
That could mean he's a member of the Hyron royal family, like the GA steward.
I don't remember Bacab being associated to the Kadoe rule, unless you meant something else?

I'm just playing devils advocate here, but him being Kadoe seems almost too obvious, and the author has used red herrings before.

sure but those look like common trash mobs

>>280442065
This kind of organization needs people in all kinds of places. Just like they had a trainee infiltrate when they already had people inside the library. And I assume this facilities worker is the one to steal a trainee uniform and not report it missing. And there's at least one other person who was giving Kiriha her orders as whoever did was wearing that shoulder piece Kafna wear.

They're an even smaller group than the Hyron and those guys made a whole religion of cope about how one day their time will come way before the Emissary happened because they weren't jack shit to the actual big players of the continent.
