Your comment was pretty much a template apologist comment.
Is there a way to agree with Oomori's vision and writing on my own merrit, absent being an apologist? I certianly feel my opinions are my own and not born of defending the man.
Bleach isn't that great of an example since it isn't a harem series like DanMachi is. Even with a harem that doesn't mean that it gives series more readership and longevity, there are plenty of harem series that get axed because they're trash. I personally thought that Ichigo not ending with Rukia made no sense considering all of the interactions they had compared to Orihime
Well, I was not drawing a harem paralel. I wasciting an example about the love of shipping.
( I so agree aboiut Rukia and Ichigo)
...then you don't know anything about story writing
That seems heavy handed for a moderator?
This nice thing about Oxford debates is that you get to hear Pro and Anti opinions. I woud love to sit with you and Oomori, have a beer, and talk about SO12.
5. In case you forgot Albert is considered a hero
I do think Albert is a hero, hence my refernce to placing Bell somehwere in the pantheon. Its past heroes inability to accomplish goals (Black Dragon) that new heroes must strive to surpass them. That can feel like power creep. What you say about new powers is certainly true. . .but I find it simply new and interesting as opposed to plot armor. Mauybe this is a glass half full vs. galss half empty thing?

Well, Mama Mia is muscular. For the other ladies, the falna takes care of their strength. As for descriptions being sexualized. . .yep. The name of the series is, "Is it alright to pick up girls in the dungeon?". So, caveat emptor.
On the opposite gender, Finn is one of the strongest male characters and he has no obvious muscles. Ottar tho looks to be hitting the gym.

Mistakes
1. I think the author of Bleach never intnded for people to ship Rukia. . . The truth is, we fans love to see where an attraction might go. We pick WIFUs and Best Girls. Even if this is the piublisher meddling, it will give this series more readership and longevity. As such, its hard to call this a mistake.
2. Delaying the Ais relationship has been mentioned as going against the author's originsl vision. That stong tension of what we want to see and anticipating when it might happen is perhaps the classic element to sales. It will intersting to see if the author can transfer that tension to the 3rd calamity (and give us the relationship ealry) or if the author couples the two events. Namely, Eis and Bell become a couple as they defeat the Black Drsagon. We shsall see.
3. I have posted a few defenses of SO12, only to have them deleted. Let me just say that I thought the writing for that book was excellent and perfectly relevant to the buildup.
4. Power creep in many series is pretty bad. Its a natrual way of raising the stakes beyond previous accomplishments.I think Oomori handles it well. His character power is determined by the capabilities of their foes. Age of Heroes - lots of strong foes. Age of the Gods - one hero.
5. Yet for all of his power, Albert was unequel to the task at hand. Should Bell accomplish this feat, it would set his place in the pantheon of heroes. And this is a story of a hero. . .

As a follow-up question. Is Bell the son of parents belonging to the Zeus and Hera famiias?

I can only use the English books, so some here may know. As an opinion I would think that Demeter's part in blurring the trail leading to Enyo will not lead to guild sanctions. So, other than delaing with the tragedy - I think she will be okay,
