Agreed. The plot/story isn't what makes this anime enjoyable, imo.

Really? I think the plot makes it better, enlisting the help of 3 problem children who don't fit in their own worlds to lead a community that was left in ruins, and challenge the demon lords to become a big community again.

Actually, I'm here for all of those things. Kurousagi being sexually harassed by Izayoi is a plus.

^This totally surprised me too. xD

But there's an another thing... How did Asuka suddenly end up underground with the mecha? At the end of episode 8, she was on the floor of the arena, getting her ass handed to her by Ratten... And then, all of once, in episode 9 Ratten says she's "missing and they can't find her".

Looks like its time for Asuka to shine! Can't wait to see her use that giant golem to smash everything around her haha. I hope they'll reveal what those spirits/ fairies said to Asuka because it sounds very interesting. And I am really loving this whole mystery surrounding the host players and the Hamelin legend.

Just one episode left :( but it is gonna be awesome one with even Kurousagi having in on some action.

After Ratten kicked her around she left her laying there to tend to other business - I didn't see her restrain Asuka in any way. I assumed the fairy and her friends 'spirited' Asuka away.

Pretty nice battle so far. Now that Asuka's back with a vengeance... and a robot, I can't to see the conclusion. Too bad it's only one more episode.

I'm really curious why the Japanese seem so fascinated by German history and fairy tales though (at least in anime). I've seen so much German in anime now...

So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

I think this is because little bits get left out of the LN, I'm not sure though since I didn't read it. There is enough explained in the anime to help you understand it by yourself though

Yeah, their "explanations" don't explain a damn thing. The characters are connecting random unrelated dots together to form conclusions that make no sense.

I can make up my own example to demonstrate the sort of logic you find in this anime.

Let's say an enemy is a snake. It's name starts with the letter S which is the 19th letter of the alphabet so this means we have to punch the snake 19 times to defeat it. Make sense to you? That is literally how they connect the concepts together to form their explanations in this anime. Though they tend to drag random unrelated mythology into it to look like there's a deeper meaning when there isn't. I pretty much laughed at how they came to the conclusion that they have to smash glass windows around town as a solution to whatever that joke of a riddle was.

It is still an explanation, but it is just not the explanation of the root you are seeking. It does not equal to "no explanation" at all. Besides unless you quote examples from the anime itself, I do not see how your example reflects the explanation used in this anime. As for deeper meaning? I wonder why you feel they try to make it like there is deeper meaning. Personally I do not see there is really an attempt to hint at deeper meaning. It indeed tries to make the relation more complex, but that does not mean they are aiming at some deeper meaning.

If you can't see how it reflects the anime then you should feel bad. I'm not about to look through the ep and put together the billion random things they throw at you into an example just for you in this thread.

OK for example, take smashing the windows, as far as solving the riddle of the game, the explanation works in that fantasy world. We as a reader/watcher just goes with the ride and see how the logic in the world plays out. What's wrong with that? Basically you are just looking at the wrong thing in this anime, and just to nitpick out of nowhere.

Yes, please rewatch the episode which you seem to dislike so much and suffer through it. Indeed please make sure you rewatch it many times so that you can put together the "billion" random things for me. Yes I will count them and I will fault you if you cannot find a "billion" things for me!! LOL

Nothing wrong with that. This is the kind of show where you turn your brain off and enjoy the ride. Just the other guy earlier was asking why I thought this show was full of nonsense and I told him.

I never said I didn't enjoy this anime. Go see my first post in this thread (on previous page). I said I thought this episode was cool.

Well, if you love using heightened exaggeration, like "don't explain a damned thing" or "a billion random things", it just get people to wonder how little you enjoy it or how much fuss you want to kick. You could have phrased your words in less exaggerated manner. If you love using "billion" which anyway requires more typing than "many", then don't complain what people ask you whether you really see so many as to want to say "billion" instead of "many".

I know what you mean, but don't forget their world is full of legends and gods etc. yes it does sound a bit funny admittedly, however these random, simple legends can be part of their enemy's weakness if exploited properly. I'm glad the characters are trying to figure it out (even though they were wrong I think...) instead of solving the game right at the last second, when they're all beaten up.
