Dragon Sweaters 😅

Marcy choosing to study forbidden magic is probably another choice made more for “character development” than smarts.

I’m not sure… Is consuming the fantasy creatures instead of banging them better or worse?

It’s still Marcy. But then I’ve held the stance since the start and I’ve read the manga, so it was unlikely to change watching the anime.

I really wanted to see more of Izu in this season, but as she isn’t with the main gang from the start, there was never going to be that much of her int this first run.

Rest assured she’s in it for the long haul. Next season we’ll see plenty more of the best cat-girl in fiction.

Chapter 52 made for a pretty good stopping point in the end. It got some deets from the surface mixed in, and an outlining for what the gang plans to do next.

Many questions remain. Why are the elves here? What exactly happened in Kabru’s home village? Why is forbidden magic forbidden? Who and what is the winged lion? No high-stakes final climax, just a calm trolley-ride into the unknown.

If you’re dying to know what happens next, I highly recommend the manga. Having read it has not ruined watching the anime for me in any way whatsoever. The opposite, I was only more hyped because I knew what was coming. So once season 2 rolls around, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it just as much as I have, if not even more knowing that the story only gets better and more interesting as it goes. Or maybe it’d make the wait even worse…

If the manga is something that interests you, I’m happy to say the adaptation has been extremely faithful, to the point that there are no differences to account for if you want to pick up where the anime has left off. Your starting point, then, would be chapter 53. Still, the manga is a masterpiece, and I think reading it from the start will give you an appreciation for the details, and a chance to notice new things, which is something the anime has been doing for me.

This episode adapted another Farcille moment that I’m really happy I don’t have to wait for. Is it even possible for a character to be sweeter than our dear Marcy?

And Izu is already showing a huge change. Though initially put off by Marcy’s outburst of emotion, she is very quick to try and awkwardly offer comfort. Not to mention that she was settling down for a nap in Marcy’s lap to begin with :D

Netflix or the high seas.

The manga took years, the publishing pace was one chapter a month, but holy shit they were bangers every time. Especially later on in the story, you’d think you’d forget to come back an read each chapter with a four week gap each time, but no.

I’m not entirely sure though, and I haven’t seen it confirmed anywhere. Some chapters are really huge, so adapting three every episode might not work for the whole thing. We’ll see, but I’m hoping I’m right, and we are getting a full adaptation with beginning, middle, and end, each part twice as dense with quality.

The manga had some bare chests without nipples drawn. I expect trigger to match the manga on that, and that to be the reason for the rating.

As already stated by others, the story has some really tragic elements, though it doesn’t get very graphic.

No-one gets brutally ripped to shreds and devoured by a monster, the orc massacre is about as violent as it gets.,

It’s looking like a full adaptation. The pace is 3 chapters per episode so far, which would nicely wrap up the whole manga into the 24 episodes.

Just in case we got some fans in here… !helltaker@sopuli.xyz

Federation is borked atm but I occasionally do post over there.

No shit. Only reason I bring it up is as a way to illustrate how badly I do not want this.

What a world we live in, when there’s a possibility my use of a private matrix server between family, might become criminal.

Obviously. The point is that it’s the kind of thing that will make me reject the very society I’m living in, and I would change it wholly to avoid this.

If the source was my own government, for the first time in my life, I’d be considering moving to a new country.

This is a level of bullshit that will straight up make me vote to leave the EU.

Outlawing E2EE should just not be a thing. It just shouldn’t.

“working towards something better is pointless, everything is shit anyway”

Hey, switching to a less shit shitty option, is still an improvement.

If the only way you’re willing to accept improvement, is by fixing it all at once or nothing at all, you’ll never solve anything.
