The Darkness Was Comfortable for Me Chapter 87 Discussion

I think the novel takes a fun premise and handles it well. Live streaming 1000 concurrent isekai shows is bound to be chaotic and entertaining. However we rarely get to see this concept in action.

This is mostly due to the author introducing elements that solve or deescalate conflicts before they even happen!

I will sum it up in the spoiler:

"I isekai'd instead of my gf, people think I killed her and I'm struggling in this isekai"

A unique premise in a time tested trope, nice work Mr. Author. Our MC must deal with societal pressure and accusations while trying to survive. However such trails are neutered by his sisters/forum posts.


Man vs Society: His twin sisters have manipulated public opinion so any social worries are in his head. Most people believe he was innocent. There is no 'practical' way for the audience to negatively influence the MC, hence, no stakes.
Man vs World: Forums typically contain huge information dumps. Making forum chapters longer reads, breaking pacing. It also doesn't help immersion in our MC since I'm getting info he can't use.
The sisters in general are a net-negative on the series. They solve too many problems and take up too much word-count. Had they been removed or just regular bro-cons I think the pacing and conflicts would be better.[collapse]
