      Speaking of animation, I thought that Celia's magic demonstration was simple, but beautiful.

        Yeah that magic demo scene in the classroom was pretty cool. However it is not really jiving with my pre-conceived notion on how the magic worked in this story. I was expecting incantations and magic runes to pop up for everything.

          @mortcs To be fair, it was a basic Light spell. If they really needed a complicated spell structure for that, then I'd be worried.

          spoiler

          Lastly, it's Celia doing it, and she's a very skilled mage.

            Finished watching first episode, felt kind of weird. Anyone who's watching the series without prior knowledge felt anything strange?
            EDIT: Watched all 4 episodes, quite low production quality we got here. On a side note, this episode just rubbed in how much I hate the author for making Rio a wuss and all the wishy washy writing.

              Well that's not how I envisioned Amande. Looked more like Beltrant to me, and that's what I thought it was in the trailer. Also... where was Rio getting the hay for his shelter? I thought it was suppose to be made of fresh branches. ....and did that letter to Celia seriously have a stamp and postmark? And his reception at the Ricca guild was a little excessive in terms of the scenes showing them walking around the store.... ...whatever /nitpicking

              My talking sword has a point. And is also right.

                The weirdest part in the 4th episode is on their way to the Spirit Folk Village they passed by Burning Lava Hell and Freezing Ice Hell. Weren't they in a giant forest called the Wilderness? Where the hell did those came from? In the book, they just went in the forest and kept going east and followed the giant tree.

                  @bartzbb There was some mountainous badlands where they fought the lizardfolk and flight of demi-dragons, but there was definitely no frozen lake. At least they made the point that "some time has passed".

                    Maybe they got isekai'd a few times in the cut scenes? I'm beginning to think they got a potato for the animation budget.

                    Also when did Liselotte turn into a tiny loli?

                      That at least makes sense; she's only 11 right now. (Rio is 12 and Latifa not quite 10... and Celia is ~17)
                      ...except honestly she (and Rio) looks way too tall to be 11 (and 12); he's not even a head shorter than that chef at the beginning (even with him leaning slightly), and Liselotte's only a few inches shorter.
                      ...or apparently five feet is about average for 12-year-old boys? Huh...

                      ....I completely forgot about that. I guess demonstrating that the Weirdness Censor is a real thing :P

                        After seeing this last episode of the anime, I want to see Latifa’s reunion with Stewart. Yet, that is a long ways off.

                            I doubt we get any kind of revenge unless Stewart start messing with Latifa again. Stewart must be a colossal idiot if he starts messing with the adoptive little sister of the black knight.

                            The best we can hope for is that Latifa's identity gets revealed and the duke start sweating bullets.

                                That's disturbing and feels really wrong. And yet still a satisfying end for all his scheming.

                                      Hell will freeze over and heaven split asunder before author will let protagonist get hitched. Even more unlikely is a harem ending.

                                        @zing I'm pretty sure Rio is strong enough to singlehandedly cause both of those events... whether he's strong enough to avoid getting hitched is still up in the air.

                                          Ok so I finally watched the anime, thank you @Lex for the recommendation, and I have to say, it’s not all that bad. It doesn’t have any pacing issues, and generally keeps to the big bits of the story. My only issue is they kinda gloss over the whole Fever dream miharu thing and explaining spirit arts but, I don’t know if that’s knit picky of me.

                                          (Fair warning, profanity inbound, apologies for the strong wording)
                                          What I will say though is that the anime really reminds you that the Beltrum kingdom are a bunch of fun assholes, I was watching and could only think to myself “wow FUCK these people” and to think Haruto just saved them from sheer collapse. Now I’m here hoping that after the slumber party and short reprieve for our vengeance seeker, he just said to those people that he really doesn’t want anything to do with them, because I for sure wouldn’t piss on any of them if they were on fire in the side of the road (except Flora because she really did try her best, Christina also might get a pass, I haven’t calmed down enough yet).

                                            It isnt, but it seems par for the course lately that great series are rendered 'just okay' by cutting the things we'd normally expect to see in it, removed.

                                            They've done it with a few series I've looked forward to over the last couple years.
