The Garden Panther is super cool.
-410: Anonymous from Earth
A beautiful female warrior swinging a humongous sword against a giant white panther; that’s almost the stuff of legends.
-411: Anonymous from Earth
The amount of viewers has increased like crazy.

The update of God that allowed us to at least see silhouettes in the darkness was big.
Or more like, there were quite a lot of requests for that, it seems.
-413: Anonymous from Earth
Milliestas is also dark as a whole, so it is hard to tell things apart there. I also sent a ticket for that.
-415: Anonymous from Earth
Man, I am impressed Hikaru managed to avoid that one.
What’s with that eye and body coordination?
-416: Anonymous from Earth
I would like them to also make it possible to see inside the darkness for past footage as well.
God should be able to do that, right?
-417: Anonymous from Earth
Chosen who battle really are popular.
Real battle really is stimulating on a whole other level.
-418: Anonymous from Earth
The slice-of-life Chosen are not bad either, but the Chosen that battle also have their own lives.
Or rather, there’s a balance between the two, and it even multiplies the amusement.
-419: Anonymous from Earth
I feel like PETA would explode from a video of an animal being hit by a giant sword.
-420: Anonymous from Earth
Hikaru has some courage there…
If that were me, my feet would buckle and I would faint.
-421: Anonymous from Earth
The Garden Panther is not only big, but also quick. It is normal to have an instinctive fear.
It normally would be impossible to fight a feline wild beast even if you have a few Spirit Abilities.
Moreover, that thing is bigger than a siberian tiger. That’s nuts.
-422: Anonymous from Earth
I feel bad for the scary-looking old man.
He was an actual good guy that gave advice to Alex and his party too…
-423: Anonymous from Earth
It is his fault for ignoring the warning of Hikaru.
-424: Anonymous from Earth
Grapefull-chan is seriously cute.
-425: Anonymous from Earth
I didn’t miss it.
The sight of Full-chan clinging onto Hikaru when the Garden Panther showed up…
-426: Anonymous from Earth
How did Hikaru know the Panther was coming?
-427: Anonymous from Earth
Don’t know.
Maybe he has the super senses that furries are said to have?
-428: Anonymous from Earth
“The thick scent of beast…!”

Naruhodo (I don’t naruhodo at all).
-430: Anonymous from Earth
Isn’t it plain scary that you don’t leave a corpse in the dungeon…? There’s no glory to that…
-431: Anonymous from Earth
That’s why it is on the low stratum of jobs.
Even so, that way of dying…it really doesn’t feel real.
-432: Anonymous from Earth
It is not low in the sense of that world. The explorers that have a decently high rank can apparently accept normal bodyguard jobs and such.
-433: Anonymous from Earth
Well, it is a job anyone can do, so there’s also the part that it is easy to begin for the ones who are broke.
-434: Anonymous from Earth
Hikaru doesn’t seem to be that bothered even when an explorer died. He must have gotten desensitized by it.
-435: Anonymous from Earth
He was scavenging the dead bodies of people in the beginning after all. His values on that front must have dulled a long time ago.
-436: Anonymous from Earth
No, you have to throw away your values of the modern world or you won’t be able to survive in that world.
-437: Anonymous from Earth
There have been a lot of Chosen who actually died because of that after all…
There were way too many who died after being deceived by the natives.
-438: Anonymous from Earth
Even so, what’s with there being these many monsters based on the fantasy monsters of Earth?
-439: Anonymous from Earth
There has already been a whole ton of analysis in that front, so don’t go bringing it out here and just google it yourself.
-440: Anonymous from Earth
Putting out just the conclusion, the fact that humans and Earth can even exist is the work of God in some way. God must have designed that world through the fantasy genre of Earth.
-441: Anonymous from Earth
Or we are all hallucinating.
-442: Anonymous from Earth
The names are different though, or more like, the names the natives call it and the names we from Earth call them are different. Aside from the literal translations like Lizardman though.
-443: Anonymous from Earth
By the way, hasn’t Hikaru increased his Tier quite a bit now?
His movements are slowly turning inhuman.
-444: Anonymous from Earth
He has been hunting monsters on his own after all. The physical strength of Rifreya is impressive, but the monstrosification of Hikaru has advanced quite a bit already. Does he himself notice it?
-445: Anonymous from Earth
The people that have become monstrosities use too much money for their food expenses. They are the first to die if there’s any food issues.
-446: Anonymous from Earth
Hikaru has made a name for himself overseas as the ninja.
-447: Anonymous from Earth
He is a user of the killing blade after all… He truly is utilizing darkness properly…
-448: Anonymous from Earth
It really must be because he is the brother of those twins. It is like he has a proper grip of himself, or like, he has no hesitation.
-449: Anonymous from Earth
Regardless of what’s said, his actions have consistency, and he doesn’t fumble around. It is rare to see someone that doesn’t space out.
-450: Anonymous from Earth
Just the fact that he is diving that dungeon on his own as if normal already puts him at the level of inhuman. No matter how many uses of Spirit Abilities you have, it should be impossible.
A single mistake means death, you know?
-451: Anonymous from Earth
There’s a lot of Chosen who have talked big game but have gotten scared by monsters. There’s a lot who also are completely separated from battle in their lifestyles. Hikaru is evaluated highly in those points as well.
-452: Anonymous from Earth
The 4th Floor is pretty scary.
Isn’t Hikaru the first one to go down there all on his own?
-453: Anonymous from Earth
I don’t know about that, but I am actually grateful that he does commentaries.
-454: Anonymous from Earth
He is so bad at it that he is practically speaking in monotone there though. It is impossible for him to become a youtuber.
-455: Anonymous from Earth
Now that you mention it, Ikakin said he was going to go meet Hikaru. As expected of the guy that has the attitude of proactively collabing with the people that have the numbers.
-456: Anonymous from Earth
Isn’t Ikakin at a pretty faraway location from Hikaru?
-457: Anonymous from Earth
There’s an ocean dividing them, so there’s the need to cross on a ship. It is a big adventure.
-458: Anonymous from Earth
I definitely wouldn’t want to ride a ship in an isekai.

You are going to be made to eat a biscuit full of maggots!

No matter how many Points you have, if the ship capsizes, there’s no chance for you…
-462: Anonymous from Earth
No, at worst, you have the Random Transfer.
-463: Anonymous from Earth
That’s technically picking your poison.
-464: Anonymous from Earth
You can do Random Transfers?
-465: Anonymous from Earth
It is technically like a rescue button that was prepared for the ones that are troubled with Points.
You can get 10 Points for a Random Transfer. Only God knows if you will survive where you get transferred.
-466: Anonymous from Earth
It’s a trap.
-467: Anonymous from Earth
If your death is assured from capsizing, that’s your only choice.
-468: Anonymous from Earth
Really…? That might be true…
-469: Anonymous from Earth
By the way, about the Loved One Chosen that had been imprisoned in the Church and was told through messages about the reality of their situation, they used the Random Transfer, but they died in a desert.
-470: Anonymous from Earth
That’s the worst.
-471: Anonymous from Earth
There’s only so much you can do even if you increase your level after all. Random Transfers are a big hurdle.
-472: Anonymous from Earth
You must have actual survival skills after all. That’s not something that can be solved by getting 10 Points.
-473: Anonymous from Earth
More importantly, what’s the rank of Hikaru?
-474: Anonymous from Earth
There’s 5 days remaining and his Total Rank is 3th. His Real Time Rank is 1st, so he is fluctuating between 3rd and 4th, but the top 2 are way too cemented there. Especially Jeanne-chan with her protagonist lifestyle.
Isn’t it impossible to win against that?
-475: Anonymous from Earth
In terms of viewers, Jeanne-chan has around 800 million, so if there’s some sort of explosive development, he might have a chance. But Hikaru is already doing his best in the current state of things after all.
-476: Anonymous from Earth
Having 800 million people watching from the 8 billion in the world is already an hegemony in terms of content creation though… Isn’t it impossible to win against that…?
-477: Anonymous from Earth
The TV had a high number of viewers in the long past. There were only a few TVs, so the amount of people wanting to watch it was a lot. In the modern era, close to 100% of households have televisions, but there’s so much choice with the internet and other things that it is hard to increase viewers. Even in a situation where you can watch from whichever computer terminal, Jeanne-chan having 800 million viewers makes her history’s biggest star in this era.
Do you think Hikaru is made to fight against that? He is your regular introverted high schooler, you know?
-478: Anonymous from Earth
It is true that he is an introverted high schooler, but his twins are like the biggest stars of this era too.
-479: Anonymous from Earth
Hikaru is also on the high side in terms of viewers, but it is also true that it is in part because of the skillful branding of his little sisters.
-480: Anonymous from Earth
Celica is pretty honest about taking 1st place, and is speaking about her plans to reach that, but she is so serious it is scary. Their way to use the media and their way of throwing their money is not normal.
-481: Anonymous from Earth
I was dumbstruck when one day the TV programs were protecting Hikaru…
-482: Anonymous from Earth
What do you mean by that?
-483: Anonymous from Earth
They suppressed the negative opinions of Hikaru with money. You can say whatever you want, but the TV still has a lot of effect on people, and if there’s programs featuring Hikaru, the viewers will naturally increase.
-484: Anonymous from Earth
On top of that, we are talking global scale here. Even if they have hired an agent, the whole world probably already knows that Hikaru is doing his best to revive his childhood friend.
That’s also why his viewers are increasing.
Since the beginning of the race for around 3 days, Celica and Karen have manipulated the world in a way that it would turn out this way.
-485: Anonymous from Earth
Seriously?
You must be exaggerating there, right?
-486: Anonymous from Earth
I am serious.
Twin/Sis apparently gets 1 billion monthly with their streams, and all other stuff.
-487: Anonymous from Earth
Leaving aside the earnings, there’s also a big part here in the world that sympathizes with how hard 12 year old girls are working…
-488: Anonymous from Earth
Hikaru was the first one to reach 1st place in viewers, so his potential viewers is pretty high. Twin/Sis is monopolizing the market in terms of the edited videos of Hikaru. It is so well made that it doesn’t allow any competition.
-489: Anonymous from Earth
Also, the ones managing the subscription video service of the Chosen’s edited videos, Globe-Heroes, are Celica and Karen.
-490: Anonymous from Earth
Ye gotta be kidding. Isn’t that the one that has the top share of the videos for the japanese Chosen and the minor ones…? The monthly subscription is cheap, so I am also a member of it.
-491: Anonymous from Earth
Karen called her comrades that are good at video editing, and created this by buying a video editing company somewhere.
The company president is in-name someone else though.
By the way, rumors say they are earning quite decently there too.
-492: Anonymous from Earth
Even in Globe-Heroes you can watch the edited videos of Hikaru, but the shrewd part of Celica and Karen is the part that everyone can watch the videos of Hikaru for free.
-493: Anonymous from Earth
Their revenue from ads is apparently already outstanding after all…
It may be small compared to the ones with top shares, but the total number of people into this is high to begin with.
-494: Anonymous from Earth
It is content that easily passes the hundreds of millions after all.
-495: Anonymous from Earth
If they created that aiming for this flow of events, Celica and Karen might be true prodigies.
-496: Anonymous from Earth
…No, they ARE prodigies.
-497: Anonymous from Earth
Even so, we can’t write off the hard work of Hikaru. If the ingredients are crap, even a godlike chef would have their limits.
-498: Anonymous from Earth
True.
-499: Anonymous from Earth
He was bashed a whole lot at the beginning, being framed as the killer of his childhood friend, Nanami.
It is hard to believe now.
-500: Anonymous from Earth
The ones flaming Hikaru have become the minority now.
Despite the culprit not being found yet, and the theory of Hikaru being the culprit still rooted deeply.
-501: Anonymous from Earth
A japanese high schooler Chosen wouldn’t get that much attention normally anyways.
-502: Anonymous from Earth
No one imagined having family members with language proficiency and mega brains would become an advantage to this extent…
