@zwabbit
Could talk about how the anime just changed Wilma's almost rape into actual rape.That is a Crunchyroll translation error. The voice was saying pretty much along the line of LN text.
It should be:
Rosina: "Wilma was tricked by a blue-robed priest and
forcedlured awayto offer her flower to him".
Myne: "Huh?"
Wilma: "Thankfully, nootherharm came to her..." -
@Philip-h5 Took the comment to mind by not animating Ferdinand and Myne playing scales on the harspiel though. Pretty much a minute of pans over the same static image.

@hiroto
I had a feeling that it was a translation issue. Thanks for the info. -

Rosina: Wilma was tricked by a blue-robed priest, and forced to offer her flower to him.
Main: Huh?
Rosina: Thankfully, no other harm came to her... But she has been afraid of men ever since.Muse Asia
Rosina: Previously, Vilma was deceived by a blue-robed priest, and dragged to a flower offering
Maine: Eh...
Rosina: Luckily, nothing happened, but... Since then, she's been afraid of men...J-Novel Club Light Novel:
In the past, I was... I was once fooled by a blue priest and taken to a flower offering. My mistress Christine noticed my absence and arrived in time to rescue me, but ever since then I have been uneasy around men. -
@LurkingMcLurk
big difference in cause and effect, and also Rosina does not come off as a ... err well Rosina's tone is much better. -
@TenmaGirl1990 said in Bookworm Part 2 Vol. 4 Discussion!:
Also... speaking of harspiel... the anime blatantly call it fespiel... now what?!
Just another example of how fiddling with German spelling will end up with different terms. Fespiel is closer to the Japanese spelling, but I believe the fe is from "harfe", the German word for harp, so I spelled it like a combination of "harp" and "spielen" (to play). I thought this would give a stronger mental image of it being a instrument and less like a random hodgepodge of letters. Of course, this isn't objectively the right choice, and fespiel is perfectly valid. Fespiel is probably the right choice in the anime since people can hear the sounds and everything. But in the LN I think it's more reasonable to fiddle with the spelling a bit for more natural sounding and understandable terms. (Same reason I didn't go with Dapula / Dalua / whatever for the apprentice names. Felt like they stuck out hard among the other terms, and were hard to get a clear grip on, so I went with more directly German inspired terms.)

I'm looking at the anime right now on Crunchyroll and it says harspiel. Maybe someone did a quick edit?
-
@LIbri-Liberorum I think they're saying the Voice Actors in the Anime said the word Fespiel while the subtitles wrote Harspiel.
This is definitely a foreshadowing of what's going to happen should they get to Rozemyne's name change at some stage.

Usually done as a cost saving exercise so they can put the animation budget elsewhere, which could mean we'll get an amazing scene in later episodes or it could just be them cutting costs where they can because the overall budget is pretty thin.

When Myne and Ferdinand talked in secret with the magical tool Ferdinands eyes where closed all the time.
Somehow, that was a little bit dissturbing, in my opinion... -
@CamChar Considering the lockdowns across the world I reckon corners were cut to get it out the door. Bookworm has taken a noticeable dip in animation quality in S2.
-
@sniper_samurai except wasn't it announced that work on this season was done long before the pandemic?
-
I liked this last episode. Had a good laugh seeing Ferdinand play and sing with the instrument. I just didn't quite picture it that way I guess. But, that aside I'm still loving the anime thus far.
-
@cosm1cfall No, it was only stated that production had finished before the start of the season. Series have been impacted by Covid 19 since February.

Anime was planned for 2 cours from the beginning, and the 2nd cour to be aired in April is already completed.

Next Japanese LN volume P5-V2 will be released on 6/10 and TO Books started to hype it in their tweet.
https://mobile.twitter.com/TOBOOKS/status/1263333062806343680
One thing they often do with a book release is to make major related announcements, and this tweet says "Major announcement coming! But I cannot tell you!". In Japan, they put this partial banner cover on book, on top of book cover which is usually promotional material related to the book. The tweet says the cover will be uncovered on 5/25, and they always first show the partial part of the cover, or blur the bottom part so this banner part is not visible, and finally they show the whole thing usually a day or two before the book release.
For example, anime season 2 was announced on 12/8/19 while counting down toward release of P4-V9 on 12/10/19, and while anime season 1 was getting closer to the end, and it was promoted on the banner cover.
So, IF there will be season 3 this fall, this will be the logical time to announce it. If it misses this window, I don't think season 3 will be happening this year.

Well on a new subject anime episode 22 came out today. It's doing an okay job. But since Part 2 is so long it's condensing a lot. I wish Bookworm would get a better adaptation for the temple arc. Oh well. I don't think the anime is going to Part 2 volume 4.
-
@BookManiaReader i think we should keep away the anime talk out of here but yeah. that was obvious after seeing the trailer before show released.
-
@hopebestman Yeah I figured changing the topic to the anime would be a bad idea. Though I couldn't think of anything else. I'm out of subjects to speculate that hasn't been speculated a million times over.

@BookManiaReader @Rahul-Balaggan the hero came and fixed it.
