| too many characters appearing. a girl w. skull characters, thieves, armies of dragons, human armies getting blown away by huge but hurt dragon, then small lone dragon... ED song's pretty. |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| This show is still kinda all over the place...wyverns, bandits, dragons. It's hard to know who trust when we have a spy in the show. It's also hard to even say who the main character is in the show with all the war drama going on. However, their world is definitely chaotic and we got tons of focus on Seijakunaru Hargent this time. He has that commander type of role from this episode and is intimdating man. |
 |
| Oh, so we're delving into the backstory of this world? Count me in. Lana, a spy from the newly established Principality of Lithia, was on a mission assigned by Taren, the vigilant ruler of the Principality. Her task was to bring back the mercenaries, Shalk the Sound Slicer Higuare. However, during their journey, Lana and her companions found themselves pursued by a flock of wyverns and surrounded by bandits. Meanwhile, in the city of Koto, a military officer named Hargent, known for his silent demeanor, was organizing a unit to embark on a mission to slay a dragon. There's definitely more to this world than just a bunch of dragons and wyverns. This show has really caught my interest now. |

| They are slowly building up the hype huh, can't wait to see that three hand wyvern boi in the tournament. |
❝Kabo-chan is ran by the MAL staff team and does not respond to individual comments made on her profile.❞ I was immensely devastated. |
| Ars is my favourite. Nobody will beat him and I can probably stop watching now since the show already peaked. |
 |
| This week's eyecatch: Wyvern (written as "bird dragon") Small dragons that don't have forefeet. Due to their body structure being specialized for flight, their flying speed and maneuverability exceeds that of dragons. They are omnivorous, highly aggressive, and are hostile towards almost every race. They are the dominant race in the sky. That's a lot of info being thrown at us right now. As I understand, Minia are humans, right? 8:42 "Human. Twentieth Minister: Hidow the Clamp" 8:52 "Human. Third Minister: Jelki the Swift Ink" 10:35 "Human. Sixth General: Harghent the Still" These word arts of life are cool as hell ngl The ED is really cool! Reminds me of Overlord EDs. I heard that this story doesn't really have a protagonist and it often switches between characters. This was already a lot to take in, but I guess there will be more. I wonder when will we get to the actual battle royale. |

| The show much like it's source material, revolves around multiple characters with no single main character at the forefront. It's very much like Fate Zero with a crazy amount of characters and storylines to boot. Or a better comparison might be the Game of Thrones books where each chapter was a character POV and as the books progress there's multiple interactions and overlap but no one really take the lead narrative. Also dragon on dragon violence in this episode just feels like the Dance of Dragons. I'm loving the direction personally and can't wait for more. |

| This is one of those types of shows I'm better off binging as opposed to watching weekly. I don't mind a multi-perspective storyline but definitely just gonna wait for this to have more eps out before watching it. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| As usual, this show feels like it's trying to introduce a lot of characters, though there's always the episode title to focus on the Shura involved. For Lana the Moon Tempest travelling to the New Principality of Lithia, together with mandrake Higuare the Pelagic and skeleton Shalk the Sound Silcer escaping from a swarm of wyverns, now they are stopped by outlaws that even the wyverns are in total assault, because there's one intelligent Shura leading the pack: Regnejee the Sunset Wings serving Taren the Guarded. But Aureatia is still commanded by the minians, of which some of its 29 Officials' ministers are Hidow the Clamp and Jelky the Swift Ink, dealing with Lithia in extreme measures to get their ace in the hole out, while on the account of Aureatia's 6th General Harghent the Wing-Plucker to expose Tileet Ravine's Vikeon the Smouldering and capture it...though the wyvern has made its move first to hunt them out. The deciding factor is Alus the Star Runner, born with 3 limbs, who's craving for action as a wyvern, and someone who respects Harghest taking him under his wings before. Despite that, Harghest knew that he would not choose Alus to be an Aureatian hero, and heads straight to the Great Labyrinth of Nagan for his need. The rogue wyvern Alus, intelligent and agile he is. |

| Me: Am I still watching the same series since EP01?! lmao. Anyway, it's rather annoying to see someone from EP01 but they won't appear in the next episode. Weird. However, this episode was still as epic as EP01. |

| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| Kind of all over the place with characters. Had to go and watch first episode because I couldn't connect it immediately. |
| completely different from the first episode but still not bad |
Alus is an Mihawk's apprentice lol.🗡️ |
 |
| damn, what a CGI fest. it's a shame, cause despite being chaotic the anime seems interesting. OST is best thing so far |
| A wyvern with a shotgun. WTF :3 |
| 12 episodes is certainly not enough I feel to cover such a huge scale of characters and plots like this. We have a bunch of characters already appearing within 2 episodes. Should be a 25 episode anime or somewhere along those lines for this to work as good. But I enjoy it nonetheless. I want to see where they go with things. |

| @Izuru_Kamukura10 I agree that 12 episodes is definitely not the right format for this kind of series. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |

Maybe they'll announce a sequel or a part 2 once the season ends.
| @Dan_ALves They probably will and should cause there is just probably so much to introduce in this kind of series. 12 episodes would probably barely get us started unless they rush through that badly |

| I guess every powerful character just going get their own "Puss in Boots vs Giant" introductory episode before the story starts. I am all for it. |
 |
| Starting to get heated up.. this is gonna be a good one |
| The quality of this episode was like night and day compared to the first one. Much more likable characters a lil more interesting. Still feels like they're trying to do "Dark souls the anime" and the CG is still meh, but a more favorable feeling towards it. If the rest are like this I'm in for the long haul. |
| Way too many character introduced this week. Also the quality took a massive nosedive. The CG in particular was atrocious. |
| If the description is anything to go by... I expect to see a couple more episodes introducing the main "cast" of individuals vying for the title of "true hero." Lookin' forward to it! Seems like the power-scaling on this one is gonna be off the charts. |
| I get the feeling the Demon King isn't dead. This world has too many powerful heroes, and the tournament to crown the one hero is the best way to have them slaughter each other. Fingers crossed for a twist. Violence and explosions on a cataclysmic scale is all well and good, but I prefer a little more in the mix. |

This week's eyecatch:
Wyvern (written as "bird dragon")
Small dragons that don't have forefeet.
Due to their body structure being specialized for flight, their flying speed and maneuverability exceeds that of dragons.
They are omnivorous, highly aggressive, and are hostile towards almost every race.
They are the dominant race in the sky.
That's a lot of info being thrown at us right now. As I understand, Minia are humans, right?
8:42 "Human. Twentieth Minister: Hidow the Clamp"
8:52 "Human. Third Minister: Jelki the Swift Ink"
10:35 "Human. Sixth General: Harghent the Still"
These word arts of life are cool as hell ngl
The ED is really cool! Reminds me of Overlord EDs.
I heard that this story doesn't really have a protagonist and it often switches between characters. This was already a lot to take in, but I guess there will be more.

| @Embient thanks! please continue |

| Pretty cool. CGI was a little iffy but i like the characters so far. |
| First we met the samurai guy from Episode 1, then we are now meeting an exceptional Wyvern capable of utilizing powerful magical weapons. Steadily but surely, we will be meeting all the combatants and the hope is that we find out their motivations and what it is that they are fighting for. It seems that some episodes might be dedicated towards solely telling the story of one character at a time. As such, the plot is taking its time in building up the world. Its actually pretty cool as a concept. Hopefully the story and the writing can be solid enough for the audience to see it through. |
| The swordsman from last episode is going to go wild when he finds out about the star runner. |
 |
| So we got a spy introduced in Lana with 2 potentially powerful minions, and then some human leaders including a crazy general-guy that is lucky to be alive but I guess Alus respects him so he was saved (plus an assistant saved him earlier when she threw him out of the tent). It's crazy that we still got more characters being introduced, this will be a bit of a challenge to remember them all. |
| I'll give Keiso this - their character concepts are freaking dope. A heroic, treasure hunting, glory-seeking wyvern that fights with guns and swords? If that doesn't go down in history as the single coolest idea of this decade - I will eat my hat. |
 |
| not gonna lie, legit forgot what anime I was watching for the first half of the episode. After I remembered, though, it was pretty interesting lol |
