@angelus Back in the days of season 1, Crunchyroll typically wasn't getting the script for most anime until the day of, sometimes even not until after it aired in Japan. Studios were paranoid about the streaming sites leaking it before it aired in Japan, and it took them a long time to earn enough trust to get the materials in advance.

Shikza's execution is revealed in the most recent episode. When this happened in the LN, it was a huge shock for me and also for Myne
I swallowed hard. Not for a second had I expected that the archduke would have Shikza executed. Considering that Shikza was a noble and I was a commoner, I figured he would get a light punishment at worst.
But in the anime, she is just "oh, so that he was executed is not public knowledge" and breezes on with the conversation.

Talking about pace in relation to LN:
-
@lurkingmclurk, I'm glad they still show who uses rinsham. Although a certain purple-haired guy looks like he needs more than rinsham to make his hair behave!
-
I read books so I knwo what will happen but it is still interesting to see how they adapt it. Also I try to spot mistakes. In latest episode when Myne is eating alone in room I noticed there is no bell on table :)
-
Somebody or something is messing with time in my locality, I just sat down to watch the new episode and all of a sudden it was finished.
And a wild Blue Priest appeared, too! But "pwee"?

Hey. It's a HUGE step up from the "oink" we saw in the trailers.
-
I am so happy they developed Damuel’s character on screen! This is how characters become alive on screen, and what separates bookworm from the generic isekai! Big Applause to the production team
-
@marcus_atticus Not only that but they are speeding up things that will be relevant in future seasons in order to focus more on what hapens in part 2 of books. So far they are doing excelent job.
-
They didn't have Benno's "Took her long enough" reaction to Myne collapsing!

I died a little inside when I saw that line in the Crunchyroll trailer. I kinda forgotten if we've even seen the creature in this adaptation which makes the sound.

So...
Concerning Crunchyroll substandard subs, or sub-par subs, or whatever subs...Ferdinand.
Bezewanst.
Two High Priests for the price of one!At least in this episode, they were both being called High Priest in the subs, with nary an alternate title to be seen.
-
@ryanmakise Given that we didn't get an adaptation of "A Day Without Myne", I don't think so.

I am quite interested to see what they will do with dinner scene :)

@sekki, and will we see a sword dance?

@angelus I hope we do but considering that it will not be relevant for this season they might skip it :(
