anime

I think I like anime Cecily more than vn Cecily

oh you are

okay

is that name a spoiler?

last episode was the most konosuba episode

of the episodes so far

do you count motto explosions in this

is that vol 4?

I'm like 1/2 way though

I think

1 > 4 > 2 = 3

so far

I don't really remember much from 3 though

its 4 and 5

there is a 5th?

didnt know that existed

Yeah Deadbeat Dusters

I think main series is more entertaining after vol 1

except maybe the last darkness volume that I read

vol 7

vol 9 and 10 were both good

This episode is already based

even more based

Volume 7 is shit

Any darkness volume is shit

I trust the anime director to save any bad parts

all of his work has been good

I don't even mind darkness as a character

vol 7 was just boring

She is a fine side character

When the focus is on her they have to take her seriously and it doesnt work well

I don't think vol 3 was that bad

not as good as the others but not as boring as vol 7

Most characters work well because of kazuma

megumin has enough going that she is fine by herself

But darkness only really works as a side character to kazuma being a straightman

I think all of the background megumins (including YunYun) are just such weak characters to play off of

it's crazy that anime cecily is so good, and I think it's because she's the first real secondary character in the show

since Komekko is more of a plot device and/or pet

I thought Komekko was good

I'm probably short changing her, I like that she sets up funny situations

so yeah, her and cecily have been the two that have really worked

I think the problem with the other crimson demons is they are all essentially the same character type, which megumin is already partially

so having them does not really add much to the diversity of the cast

they're probably good background characters

I can imagine (like the movie) having the main 4 interacting with them would be funny

but when you try to have them carry their own role, they all just kinds fall down

I think you need a cast of characters who are not them interacting with them yeah

their entire gimmick is "Look at this wacky village"

but if there is nothing to compare it to, it is just a wacky village
