    What's the most annoying instances "Sasuga"/Worshipping of MC by Allies (Excluding Waifus) that you have ever read in a Novel?

    Let's exclude Waifus from the discussion since it's pre-programmed they have to worship MC's Man-parts.

    Here's my experience:

    1) https://www.novelupdates.com/series/beauty-and-the-bodyguard/
    • The fate of female chars is to either become MC's waifu, waifu-candidate-in-waiting or enemy
    • All male chars that becomes MC's little-bro/otouto will end up losing their remaining intellect, becoming drooling idiots and fall prey to MC's hive-mind control and worship MC like the paragon of perfection even though MC is "less than half as smart as MC thinks he is".
    • The further and longer that MC separates from his male allies, the more retarded mistakes they will make and they will accumulate enough drama/problems for months/years just for MC to get back just in time to save them from "their dying breath".
    • MC constantly "blushes" from the amount of praises that he receives from his male slaves allies even though MC has to consistently waste paragraphs to monologue to himself that he is "both humble and covert".
    2) https://www.novelupdates.com/series/the-new-gate/
    • Let's skip the female High elves, elves, Sword spirit entities.
    • As long as they're not the former deceased? players, once they learn of MC's awesome powers, they will climax and worship MC.
    3) https://www.novelupdates.com/series/remonster/
    • No upgrades for you if you don't worship MC even if he is evil.
    4) https://www.novelupdates.com/series/overlord/
    • The original "Sasuga"
    5) https://www.novelupdates.com/series/against-the-gods/
    • Xia Yuanba aka MC's brother-in-law. Will get power-up whenever he learns that MC "dies". Otherwise, most of the time, he just bear-hugs MC and follows MC around like a giant-puppy.
    6) https://www.novelupdates.com/series/i-alone-level-up/
    • Yoo Jin-ho,
      • the things that he do,
      • plot developments that happen to him (gets kidnapped by MC's self-proclaimed Nemesis)
      • and the number of times that he calls MC "hyung-nim",
      • the number of times he "solo-dates" MC,
      • the number of times that MC answers his phonecalls (the other people that MC bothers to answer is his Sister and his Mom)
      • will promote him to 1st Waifu position if only this was a BL/Y@oi novel.

    You've kind of missed the point on some of these as there are in world mechanics that can explain some.

    Thanks for the laugh.
    Another example of telling instead of showing.
    Very poor story telling technique.
    That is why I just wait for drama adaptations.
    Reading these amateur writing can be torture

    Plus, nazarick original staffs and inhabitants were programmed to glorify their creators.
    Albedo and demiurge fanboying over every decisions ainz made as if there is always a bigger picture is the funniest part of the series. Lol.

    And the fact that even the smallest "plan" of Ainz (even if it's a plan to slack) somehow turns out to be super effective down the line somehow xD

    Half the comedy comes from Ainz yoloing hardcore, somehow miraciously going still better as planned. Then Demiurge smh manages to turn the mess into a god tier plan and feels like Ainz is doing hat shit on purpose. Ainz is greatly troubled by this. That is another part of the joke,

    No one's slick as Gaston
    No one's quick as Gaston
    No one's neck's as incredibly thick as Gaston's
    For there's no man in town half as manly
    Perfect, a pure paragon!
    You can ask any Tom, Dick or Stanley
    And they'll tell you whose team they prefer to be on

    Who plays darts like Gaston?
    Who breaks hearts like Gaston?
    Who's much more than the sum of his parts like Gaston?
    No one fights like Gaston
    Douses lights like Gaston
    In a wrestling match nobody bites like Gaston

    No one hits like Gaston
    Matches wits like Gaston
    Who has brains like Gaston
    Entertains like Gaston
    Who can make up these endless refrains like Gaston?

    Say it again
    Who's a man among men
    Who's the super success
    Don't you know, can't you guess?
    Ask his fans and his five hangers-on
    There's must be one guy in town who's got all of it down
    And his name's G A S T...
    I believe there's another T
    It just occurred to me that I'm illiterate
    And I've never actually had to spell it out loud before
    Gaston

    Hahhaa I thought it was Lightnovelbaston until I recalled Beauty and the Beast
    I probably should find a time rewatch that classic
    Thanks for the smile

    You should try looking at it while thinking of Gastons perspective sometime. He's the true protagonist

    Gaston did nothing wrong!

    Hmm but if you're talking about if it is pleasant or not then at least i like how ainz' followers ( overlord ) worship him as it makes the story fun and instead of things like not having their will they are at least many times intelligent than ainz himself and have unique characteristics of themselves
