@arghc nah, the method of execution and the people trying to do it just changes again, and she gets a new method of foreseeing the future since the diary went away when the guillotine ending was averted.

Did Ange just get another shadow contaminated cut, this time on her face? Admittedly, an all out physical and magic attack might make you wobbly on your feet, but...?

The demon king still looks like a baby Ange and is now calling elf-uncle "grandpa"...

At least Byaku seems to be the only one who has not totally lost perspective on Big/Sister stuff with Ange and Char. One would think that Ange would hold a longer grudge against those who sent an army of undead after her dad.

This series is a lost cause as an anime.

I'm inclined to agree, but am curious as to why you think so.
I loved season 1

They skipped so much good stuff in the 2nd season to focus on the harem. Wasting time on the side stories. Why introduce Caroline Rilletes at all. Founding of Brunhild was mostly skipped. The book has good world building they skip most of it.

@Kamijou-Touma Same! x3

@norjack2 Recent JNC licenses seem to be ahead of the anime releases these days.

Several of the new animes debuting this month are based on actively translated titles.

This is good since it should help with the sales of the LNs with several volumes available from the start.

@Angelus I have read the 5th novel already. It was great.

I found the animation designs a bit too cute for my taste. However, I am slightly interested in the story so I might watch a couple more episodes. I did watch 80,000 gold and enjoyed it but it had a great OP and ED that pulled me in. Potions' OP and ED are a bit lacking, though for my taste. Generally, it seems that FUNA novels tend to have cute illustrations that are slightly distasteful to me even if the story is interesting.

It’s terrible.

@pcj great, thank you.

A mention of toe tapping anime music and no mention of the ending music for Blood Blockade Battlefront? Blasphemy!

Sugar Song to Bitter Step

Of course, the opening isn't too shabby either. Bump of Chicken does good stuff.

Hello, World

An oldie but a goodie, the first opening to the first Full Metal Alchemist series

@Folker46 If you think that is bad dont ever look up the history of the fruit industry, the circuit board industry in china, or any of the old trading companies from 1600-1900. Rembrandt is a pipsqueek compared to any of them.

The anime mis-explained her use of aether during her fight with Rahl... Had her explain that she was using her aether to counter his mana... Which wasn't necessary because his spell required eye contact to work and she spent the entire fight with her eyes closed. Which they then never commented why she was able to do that. In truth she was using the flow of aether around her to "feel" where Rahl was while fighting, since her eyes were shut.

I feel pretty satisfied with the anime.
the production told a story that fit within a cour, and ended at a good place, with few loose ends.

Yume is still in love with Mitzuo
Mitzuo is still in love with Ayai (who Yume used to be)

Yume is determined to win Mitzuo from her 'old self'

yea, it's more complicated than that in the LN, and even if events diverge from this point going forward - I feel the Anime stands on it's own

Season 2 is landing Jan 2023

Miyabi has been cast as Yuiko Tatsumi. The main writer for the anime has also changed.

Aaaaaaaand... This one is getting a 3rd Season!

Well, the second season wasn't as bad as the first, but I wouldn't say it was especially great either. But, it is what it is. It does look like they may just well intend to animate the entire story at this point. All we can hope for is that they continue to try and do a better job with the 3rd season vs the 1st and 2nd.

The entry for Clive was pretty good, it really lays down enough of the ground work for his abilities already. The zombie stares those women had…

Can’t wait for the next few episodes to play out.

Still watching but now Egyptians and Babylonians fighting? This is NOT Earth! Must be one of those worm hole things where people from different time periods coexist or something, and there is an afterlife in this world... maybe?
