| So more of a breather episode this time. Not bad. Glad Mary is trying to move forward. That moment was pretty great. |
  |
| Barbara!! My D-kun wants to be friends! I really want to be in Haru's place. All Dem poses she made :L Sorry Yume, I love u so much (Kansai-ben girls are almost always my favs) but Mary's just rising up there. In terms of enjoying a character I enjoy seeing Yume more but In terms of character depth and shipping with Haru, Mary wins. Dat night scene was really nice. |
 |
| LMAO they were saving the budget for Barbara scene!! i was wondering why the animation suddenly turned bad....LOL....the budget went to Barbara scene....XD Great episode overall. it was a really enjoyable episode with enjoyable insert song, especially the first one :D i really like it a lot. but this pic tho....  i knew it! i saw that coming! three episode left and all of that is about Marry's problems...i expected that :D the monster turn into a whole new level....can't wait to see the action. just can't get enough with Barbara-sensei XD she is an "S" tho... |

It's sad that most of you people have a adhd and you can't enjoy this show. Most of anime og this type are full of action and other bullshit, so go watch them and leave this one for people like me and other, searching for something more. using adhd surely seems like the perfect way to mock people. jeez. chill out and let everyone have their own opinion about the show. |

But repeating it every week is silly. Especially that this is 9th episode, not 1st/2nd/3rd A lot of things are and will be repeated a couple of times. Even positive comments. You made such a comment yourself: "Pacing is fuckin perfect!". You could also ignore such comments since they will always appear (even after the last episode). The comment you made on that particular person seemed a bit outraged and mean, but I get what you're trying to say. |

That depends on the person watching the show, really. However I do get what you're trying to say. The thing that is bugging me is the reference they had to "the actual world" by saying "mobile phone" and such modern words. Clearly the characters are from "our world", but none of the questions about how they got in Grimgar and why are answered. The pacing is something I have to deal with myself as well.. but it kind of feels dissapointing not knowing the "back story" of Grimgar and the characters. |

| So we go through another slow episode and we have 3 more before the series is over to complete a proper ending and all. Pretty sure they all going into the mines and becoming dead motherfuckers or the anime is gonna end with buy the manga TROLOLOLO and a rick rolled ending. |
| lol this show does know its 12 episodes right? anyway I always enjoy the animation, it's a beautiful show to look at but I cant help feeling this series is just one long advert for inevitable soundtrack album |
| Never fails to be boring |

Yep and it's even all the way until the end of of second volume. after that I don't expect changes either. This is simply the way her character develops. Still it's better to not think of this anime as an adaptation as too many elements are simply changed, skipped. The anime producers sure are doing whatever they want. They main points that the story needs to include but they are taking different routes to approach it. Also given the number of episodes left, I think they will probably rush to the ending of the second volume to tie up Mary's storline of her dead party. Skipping things like That's why it's better to think of this as an anime completely separated from LN and if someone wants to read LN they have to start from the very beginning. You have no idea how many steps were skipped. I mean how many chapters there are about only Haruhiro building him up as protagonist. Here we are given the set of six characters from the get go. |
| Even more chill episode than usual, but enjoyed it nonetheless. They've decided to go to the mines, this will be interesting seeing how they will all cope in this new environment and enemies. Barbara return this episode... don't know if Haruhiro is lucky or not. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |
 |
| So they finally got tired of goblins but not tired of shitty engrish insert songs |

Most of anime og this type are full of action and other bullshit, so go watch them and leave this one for people like me and other, searching for something more. I have no problem with slow shows, and some of my favorite slow shows get shit on for being slow as well. There are lots of reincarnation/sent to new world with RPG element shows and LNs out there and I was interested to see where one would go if it decided to go at a slow pace. Probably the biggest reason for it being slow was to make Manato's death more meaningful, because he dies fairly early on in the 1st book. So when this show stuffed in insert songs and long pauses between every sentence it felt like you could see the writers trying to find ways to draw it out as much as they could. Like with a lot of LN adaptations this one will end before any real goal or plot is established, and with some shows it works, but this one either needed more episodes or a faster pace. |
| This episode was okay. I liked the taking a break thing and the character interactions. But damn.. The character animation really bothered me this episode. I know it's not that important for an episode like this but it was so distracting. |
| that was nice and slow and hold up she was sitting on his dick right -_- |
 |
| Totally shipping Haru x Mary. Mary was pretty cute this episode. Loved Barbara this episode, wouldn't mind having some training sessions with her |
 |
| "Things seem to be going well with Mary. I know! Let's fuck with her by suggesting to go back to the Cyrene mine, because that's the only other place we could go to since we need to change the areas we go to!" Forced drama is forced. He admits that he knows she wouldn't feel comfortable and wouldn't operate at full capacity, but suggests it anyway? Error 404 : logic not found. |
 It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether! It's an entirely different kind of flying. |

| Another decent episode this week as well. Lol still don't get how people come here just to bitch about how slow and boring this show is for almost 2 STRAIGHT MONTHS!!!!. Got Damn Tsundere's everywhere, it makes me sick XD. |

Fappa said: This week’s episode is tricky as it depends on what type of consumer you are. As an anime only watcher you’ll like it for what it showed you but as a light novel reader you might have your problems. So what did the anime adaptation differently? First of all they cut some content, in fact the very first chapter. It’s nothing majorly important but it would have given a nice touch. So what happens in the first chapter is an invasion. Yeah the town our characters live in gets invaded by Orcs. Panic breaks out, our characters get parted from each other in the commotion and Haruhiro has to face an Orc by himself just to find out that he doesn’t stand a single chance. He tries to flee and runs into the group of Renji which quickly disposes of the Orc by decapitating it. After that we see some badass fight scenes from Renji’s party as well as a duel between him and the Orc’s leader ( who even speaks human language ). This experience is what gives Haruhiro his motivation to keep on going and to not get left behind. You could say because of that all of them evolve some sense of competition. It’s not only about surviving anymore but making yourself a name, improve, raise your living standard. So you see it’s nothing really important. That’s also why I think it got cut out but it would have been nice to see, I have to admit that. What I like though is how they didn’t just blandly cut it out and leave it like that, no, they replaced it with another anime original scene between Mary and Haru which I can only love to death. They really try to pay focus on the character interactions with this adaptation whether it’s within discretion of the author or not, I don’t know but it’s definitely not a bad decision. Personally I thought they would bait us all with the misleading episode title and preview scenes just to surprise us all with the sudden orc invasion, guess I was completely wrong lol. They also altered the order in which they acquire their new skills. In the source material our groups went to training after they’ve visited the Siren Mines for the first time, the anime on the other side puts this progress between the battle against the Goblin group and their first visit of the mines. I think that’s actually a good move because it shows you that they now have surpassed the Goblins as enemies once and for all. They’ve advanced to a new height and prepare themselves accordingly to it, I mean there’s nothing wrong with getting some new skills before advancing to a new environment with new enemies. So all in all I’m a little bit sad that they cut out this awesome chapter but happy with how they managed to make up for it. Before some people come to the conclusion that the anime now goes for an original ending for this season or even a whole story line, that’s not the case at all. We are far far faaar away from being anime original. The anime still follows the LN perfectly, it only cuts out content that doesn’t has any really important meaning and even that happens very rarely. interesting info you got there, now that you said that i REALLY wish they had added this fight. |
| SCREW THE RULES, I HAVE MONEY! |
| Boring and dull episode—like half the show. These insert songs were annoying at first, but now they're just obnoxious. 2.5/5. |
 |
| Definitely felt a little more slower pace than usual but it was to be expected with this being the start of a new arc and overall it still was a good relaxing episode seeing everyone do their own thing on their day off and omg the Haru x Mary moments were so cute to see! Shipping them so hard now but yea this next arc as Haruhiro says is that they will be going to that mine that Mary lost her friends which I was just thinking really Haruhiro you going to suggest that knowing how she feels about that even if she ends up wanting to so she can overcome it, just bring that up was really stupid in my opinion. The part with Barbara was interesting to say the least with her all over his D...lol but yea overall nice relaxing episode that is a good start for this next arc and I cannot wait to see how Mary will overcome this. If you want to see my full review on the episode check out the link to my YouTube channel on my profile page where I make review videos on the current anime! |
| great episode. moves kind of slow but i still happen to enjoy them. where are you guys reading all these chapter? i can only find 4? if you could pm me |
| Took a lot of willpower to restrain my erection during the Barbara scenes. |
 |
| mary is so pretty <3 |
 |
Mary is really beautiful.   |
| I really like the slow pacing as it is. While it was a breather episode, it also allowed us to see how the girls have changed in a positive way, especially Mary and Shihoru. And for once, Ranta was not a total douche. The training session was a bonus too. But the highlight of the episode is gotta be Mary. She in her casual clothing is so damn beautiful. I think she became my second favourite of all the female characters in Winter 2015 when they showed her sitting next to a window looking afar in a previous scene. I still cannot forget that scene. |

ichii_1 said: Day off, way better than having filthy orcs. Insert song on point <3 Thief sensei with her tough love. I think Mary was the one who brought up the mines in the novels :( either way it was well executed. Haruhiro is a leg man ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)  The only interesting scene in this episode . |
 |
| Can't get enough of this!!! Absolute love.. |

| This doesn't seem to be a hugely popular opinion but I think the pacing for this series is perfect and this episode was no different. It's hard for me to pick a favorite of the season..... This,erased, and Konosuba are to me clearly the 3 best of the season but I can't pick which I like the best! |
| Haru x Mary ship is sailing strong recently~ Yes! I really don't like this anime until Mary comes and make things more interesting. Found this on reddit. Even the anteater makes a love sign~ (yes I know it's kind of a stretch)  So far Mary have proper build up, but the rest of the characters are like background characters. I hope they address those characters within the last 3 episodes. Or they could add more Mary x Haru, which is not a problem at all to me. I'm still curious on why Mary called Haru as "Haru" without the suffix like Haru-kun or Haruhiro as the others called him. I think Mary knows Haru in real life before they got to this world, which is why they're so close. Also, Ranta x Yume foreshadowing? |

| another meh episode. |
| Watching Grimgar be like.... Montages! Random insert songs! Yume's ass! Manato mention! Well it's still enjoyable. But stop with the insert song ==' I think a soothing relaxing instrumental insert song would go better than an Engrish song. Also Mary x Haru ship is getting more confirmed. Especially since they changed the ED on ep 7 with Haru and Mary together. S.S. Yumetanic have hit a Maryberg!  |
