    So....this WN is SIX YEARS behind. Is there a reason for this abysmal translation rate? Also, long-term novels tend to fall apart, and it seems to have happened with this one. It’s basically a shounen battle manga now. Does it continue degrading from here?

    if i remember correctly.
    that's the edgy novel that continues to make no sense and just makes everything batshit insane at the start (100 chapters or so). right?

    if so. wouldn't be surprised it got dropped with the advent of better novels and with CN and KR novels making an entry. popularity matters

    It's edgy but not edgy enough.
    It's dark but not that dark.
    It's insane but entertainingly insane.
    It hits at the right spot.

    So, is someone translating this above the rate of one chapter a month?

    I remember it not really making any sense, and sh*tty things happening purely for the sake of it.

    I do agree that the author just wants to make dark themes even when it doesn’t belong or doesn’t make sense. For example, EVERY love interest being a yandere (not real yanderes of course, modern type). Simply, why? If the Crusaders are so irredeemably evil and the Cross religion so corrupt how did it become such a large power? And then all of a sudden they’re too weak to win against just a city-state even with a large numeric superiority, giant robots (wtf?) and superpower apostles? And then these characters who were tragically killed by heroically fighting an enemy they can’t beat (because: dark) just came back to life with the excuse that it would take more than that for them to die, as if this were One Piece? Wait, wasn’t this supposed to be "Dark"? Should I have bailed out when gundams appeared?
