anime

I don't remember, it might be on the way back?

the comments on the manga chapter mentioned important p[lot stuff was left out

so that's all I'm going off

ok, I went and re-read part of the novel

so, they skipped over a lot of world building with the Begaritto continent, which included people who speak the Fighting-God language you learn about desert culture/society, meet a few parties of adventurers, and there are 2 big fights pack of griffins and a bandit ambush

nothing "critical" to the overall plot

but like I said, when you skip interesting stuff like this, and character introductions, the ones you do bother with all make the plot progression feel more obvious when they are relevent later on

even the novels do a small timeskip in the desert, because it is a long distance, but it's about half a novel

that merchant is so completely irrelevant, if there's a what-if element to his story

he doesn't even warrent a wiki page entry

in the manga they leave the teleporter, chapter ends, then the next chapter opens on them arriving

I have the LN open right now, I went through and checked

yeah, if that's what they're complaining about they're retarded

anime adapted 1 of the 3 desert flavour scenes

which is fine, because I get not wanting to do 2 full episodes traveling

succubus and griffons?

succubi, they didn't do the griffon pack or bandits

there were 2 griffons at least

there were lots of desert mobs too, I'm not counting those

the desert is full of scorpions, griffons, succubi, and these antlion "behomoth" things

I think they show them all in the anime, but just cut down on the number of fights to a couple

production on this show

is so screwed

2 weeks of recap

and even someone as blind as me to animation mistakes saw some pretty glaring ones in last weeks episode

to note, the mistake i saw was during a band performance, the microphones and drums the band used would disappear and reappear in the scene when zoom ins and zoom outs happened

it was really obvious

I figured I'd let the season air before catching up on that

sad that it's in production hell

btw the band has a drummer, totally left out of the scene on zoom out, forgot about that mistake

according to rumours the animators for the scene were not able to communicate with each other at all

and were on crunch time

those are rumours though, obviously the studio isnt gonna just say stuff outright

The real rock band anime fans keep winning

lol

what do you think of girls band so far pika

Its my favourite non-sequel

Overall season wise, I'd say its my 3rd favourite behind konosuba and MT

I am really enjoying it

yeah its pretty good

it would be better if i didnt have to wait for fansubs

That is true

Although it could be worse

I could have to wait for fansubs and also not like that show quite as much making me fall behind on it

cough 3 episodes of blue archive in my downloads I have yet to watch cough

Episode 8 only needs to be quality checked

speaking of BA anime, they had an anime original scene in ep8

but overall its not as good as i would have hoped it could be

Blue archive is my least favorite non-sequel

Same

they really could have done better on fight scenes at least, cuz they werent gonna pull anyone in with volume 1 story

my least favourite sequel is slime

my second least favourite sequel is irregular

fuck you 8bit

Slime < Yuru < Irregular

for my 8-bit season 3 sequel shows

Where is an arson attacker when we need him

they hit the wrong studio

Need to hit MAPPA, then with any leftover fuel hit 8bit

i like slime and this is just more of the same so i am enjoying it even when its slow

Its not that its slow, its that it is needlessly slow is my issue

if i pick out my weakest show right now its actually Salad bowl

(also the fight againt hinata was lame and worse than both the S1 op and this seasons OP that showed it)

Salad bowl is alright

I like that she build an elementary school harem last episode

it was fun at first but i feel less interested each episode.

I hate slime so much at this point

Salad Bowl turned out way more mundane than I had hoped

fine, but nothing special

Salad bowl is one of the seasonals that I will occasionally be reminded of but never actively think about

honestly aristocrat ending up more interesting than salad bowl wasnt what i was expecting

at the start of season

yeah

like the "I lived next to the last dungeon so I am overpowered" show

i dropped that one pika lol

I enjoyed that show, I never remember it exists
