9: Ruler's Crown Episode 4 Discussion

The amount of plot holes, my god I knew this adaptation was going to turn bad but this is something else. They literally speed run through those last 5 minutes.

Heck I would even consider those 5 minutes some sort of original content that led to the Bad Ending, because that was not how it was supposed to lead up to the reveal. Like how lazy can these guys be?
> Kakeru parts on a good note with Miyako
> Input random mob characters talking about a 3rd statue victim, with really detailed rumors about being a classmate, implying someone actualy found them
> Kakeru runs around the city and per coincidence ends up being the 1st to find the corpse who has yet to be found, conveniently laying there for him for plot reasons

I guess for anime onlies Miyako’s death can be atributed to bad luck, because they totally were not trying to find the Evil Eye user, especially on this episode.

So to sum it up in this 1st arc what was mainly butchered:


Oh well... I guess on the next episode we will start directly on Sora’s route with no context whatsoever. Just hoping they are not going to do each of the other 3 games/arcs in 3 episodes each. Please at least end this excuse of adaptation on the 3rd arc and leave the last one for a movie or something.

@Kaiton Ugh this is painful to read as someone who enjoyed the VN. I haven't jumped into the show yet, but I'm still tempted because I really love the voice actors especially Sora's.

I thought this episode was pretty good. Weird that so few people seem to watch this show. I haven't played the original VN but to me the story doesn't seem that slow.
