If my monsters are imagined, why do they trigger the motion sensor lights?

  • Pssst. Don't speak its name, or it comes! It brings with it all the cut pages of the Bookworm novel that scatter unused around it until you drown and suffocate in them.

  • Did you see the clip of the teacher doing a full arm rotation circle on a chalkboard?!

    edit: found it

  • Coco didn’t tell about the encounter with the Brimmed Cap.

    Are you talking about the encounter in this episode? Coco wasn't conscious during it.

  • I don't remember het leg getting broke or invisible blips. Must be after volume 4. But I don't remember much anymore about the series so I might just as well have forgotten. I don't think though that I would have had such a negative reaction if her damsel-ness could be explained with some broken bones.

  • I think I love this adaptation just as much as I hate the other one.

    Also, when was the last time an anime did skip OP and ED to squeeze 3 more minutes out for the episode? From the shows that I watch it must have been Re:Zero.

  • My face when my comfy isekai farming anime has fully animated fight scenes with complex camera work.

  • I checked and it was after finishing volume 4. I dropped it because her inner monologue made her look dumb/oblivious and because the characters were so inconsistent. Here's a bit of what I wrote at the time:

    Also, suddenly she is some damsel in distress who needs to be rescued from some princeling when in previous volumes she was a powerful last boss cheat monster that could annihilate a platoon of bandits that even endangered the army. But no, now some single little prince can manhandle her as he wants. Such fucking inconsistent writing.

    And now that I've refreshed my memory I think I will stay away, even if there is country building.

  • Do you hear the anime voices in your head when reading the novel? Happens to me all the time when reading a novel after watching the anime. Strangely enough, this doesn't work when I read the novel first and then watch the anime between volumes. For example, I don't read Myne's lines with her anime voice when reading Bookworm.

  • Just their country building love inttrests and slice of life stuff.

    That sounds like something for me. Maybe I should pick it up again.

  • Correct me if I'm wrong but I think this is not a Light novel. I think this series came up before.

  • I liked the anime of A Journey Through Another World well enough, so I'll check the LN out. Our Party Nearly Wiped sounds quite harem-y so it's a "maybe" for me. If the tone is humorous, it could work.

  • <The Ephemeral Scenes of Setsuna’s Journey> Vol. 6 - What a melancholic volume. The series has become so much better in making the reader feel what the author wants them to, compared to how it was in the first volume.

    <Disowned but Not Disheartened! Life Is Good with Overpowered Magic> Volume 2+3 - This practically stays the way the first volume was. I really like this type of confident MC that gets thrown into the trope-y situations. It's also refreshing to see an MC that isn't an unsociable loner and has healthy support from friends and family. Really looking forward to the next volume.

    <Easygoing Territory Defense by the Optimistic Lord: Production Magic Turns a Nameless Village into the Strongest Fortified City>

    Vol. 7 - The war arc is over, and we finally go back to city building again. That's when the series is best.

  • The way I see it they are destroying everything that makes the series great and even anime onlies should see that something is missing. For example there is talk about how important the Starbinding is and that this could result in her real family getting killed. Then they cut to the Starbinding and everything just works out perfectly. They left out all the work she puts into this to reach that point. In the anime this is unearned. It has no worth. No meaning. If it's like that it would be better if there wasn't an adaptation at all.

  • Apparently it was on purpose, every episode is going to have a distinct artstyle.

    Thanks for the heads up. I was coming here to rant about it.

  • I don’t know what other people think,

    I hate it to an unreasonable degree. They skip everything.

  • Both are so likeable that the harem route is the only way where half of the viewers wouldn't be pissed off, but it also means that it's just a compromise for everyone.

  • They put the R (short for "Returns") at the end of the title to indicate that is is the second season.

  • Personally, I prefer my anime without drugs. So I hope the current state doesn't change.
