| I liked the pace of this episode. I'm liking Adlet a lot. He is not the stupid and indecisive MC we see all the time. I don't trust Godolf and i think he is just trying to frame Fremy. |
I despise woke people. |
| Adlet looks much calmer in this episode. He's badass in his own way. I really like his mixed fighting style. So unpredictable! Dat cliffhanger! Aww I thought Godolf is gonna be one cool character from the OP... He's just another princess' dog? I hope not, though. |
 |
| How come the animation vs the fiends are different when adlet was fighting the 2 humans ? |
| i love freya already |
mr_sam21 said: Can someone spoil me whose read the LN , who is the brave killer/fake ? Don't ask for that here. It isn't allowed to discuss of things further away in the plot than the current episode. Talking about content that was left out is one thing, talking about something happening afterwards even in the source material is another, that's not allowed in that type of thread. Xenocrisi said: i love freya already Freiya was in Danmachi lol xD. That's Fremy :D |
 |
| I freacking love Fremy already she is badass. She had a nice way to enter this anime. I mean that was her time to shine. And she fuckign took it. I'm not too comfortable with the 3D models though, maybe I'll need to get used to it. But the 2D/3D mixture collide good, so it's acceptable. I also really like the chemistry between Adlet and Nashetania, their relation is smoothly getting better with the day. Which I'm able to understand since they spent so much time together and have to protect each other. Overall it was a good episode. I'm really liking it. |
| It seemed like Fremy was reacting to Adlet's ocarina, could it mean... |
 |
| Seems like this is an anime where Zefyris will help us with information from time to time. Anyway, Nashetania and Adlet did well for their first fight together. Fremy and Goldof appear and I doubt Fremy's the Brave-killer. |
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling. |

Fremy and Goldof appear and I doubt Fremy's the Brave-killer. I don't think I'll be needed really, they are doing a good job at it . The adaptation is currently like 3 to 5 times slower than danmachi, so obviously the amount of missing necessary information at this rate will be minimal. |
|
| Nice episode. OP and ED fit this series well I think. CGI monsters didn't bother me as much as i expected which was nice. Somehow doubt that Fremy is a brave killer, let's see next week! |
| Why the hell don't they leave the shitty CGI to the shitty shows airing? |
| Nice episode. First part was a bit slow but I'm fine with that because we get to see how Adlet and Nashetania are getting along. If I were Nashetania, I would totally be the same way before my first fight. I know it's not much but I like how they added her wiping her palms on her clothes. Really makes her character more realistic...despite the fact that she has bunny ears... Fiends aren't bad, at least the cgi isn't terrible Whoa a brave is the brave killer? Need explanation plz |

| It was a pretty solid episode, I'm liking the characters already the CGI isn't that bad. It's shaping up to be a good series. |

Need explanation plz Those bunny ears are an ear decoration you know, she doesn't really have bunny ears... Having animal decoration on the head is a tradition in the pienna royal family and everyone from the family or close to it have that type of decoration. It's not the only case animal ears are being used, but those uses it all the time. For example, Goldof that you saw in this episode. He's a personal royal guard for the princess. His helms have animal horns. That's the same reason, this helm was given by the royal family after all. GSupernova said: Zefyris said: Saw the huge metal thing he was bringing to his horse at the very beginning of episode two? it's full of ingredients and already made weapons. and his three belts with lots of pouch are the same. And he learned how to create them as well, that's part of his training. Yeah, I get it man. But it's only like 6x8, small enough(and light enough) to carry on horseback. The thing isn't a bag of holding(as far as I know), so you run into an area where you really have to just swallow that this guy who would be burning through consumables like crazy has enough to last the entire conflict in one go. It's a tough sell to me, personally, if they don't show me him macguyvering some stuff together from scavenging/whatever scraps are left. Someone who is clever enough to have poisoned caltrops in his sword blade should be clever enough to make do. HE can make poison, that's for sure. Now, bear in mind that anime loves to xxagerate things in action scene so the anime may actually be showing him using bigger things or things in more number than in the novel, bringing the question about how did he had all of this with him. Like that amount of darts he launched and the ridiculous number of smoke bomb he used in one fight at the beginning. |

| I find it hilarious that people still think she has genuine animal ears despite us seeing her without them in the first episode. |
 |
| Slow-pacing, still a good episode overall. |

| Adlet fighting style is probably the most unique thing about this anime. |
Snaita said: CookingPriest said: I find it hilarious that people still think she has genuine animal ears despite us seeing her without them in the first episode. Yeah, they forget that anime characters have fetishes too. More like, tradition. Look at the number of character with animal/plant symbols in this show. Those warriors at the tournament (jaguar, eagle or something like that...) . Nashetania has both bunny ears AND animal like armor for her legs and arms part. Chamo in the opening has a frog costume. Hans' appearance reminds of a cat (especially the novels illustrations). Fremy has a flower. Goldof has sheep's horns on the side of his helmet. And so on. This is traditional in that verse, that's pretty obvious. |

In fact there were whole ranks in Aztec military known as Jaguar Warriors, Eagle Warriors, etc and the abundance of motiff was connected to the overall ranking and standing. Then again most viewers most likely have no idea what Aztecs were becauseI see gems like "oh nice, they are using egyptian setting with pyramids" floating around. |

It's frustrating when some animal ears character appears, and people just jump to prejudice claiming it's just to appeal the watchers. |
| I thought that all of them will met in first episode. I'm most interested what will happen when they notice that they are 7 people instead of 6 ;p, but it seams that they will introduce them slowly, its strange because its only 12 episode anime. I imagine this as 1-2 episode of characters introduction and 10 episodes of fighting evil but it seems it will be backwards ;p, maybe it will be better that way :). |

| I like that they go for a slow pacing, if the show keeps up with its quality I wouldn't mind a second cour (even if it's split). It seems pretty obvious that Fremy isn't the killer, or at least we won't get to know it in the next few episodes even though the cliffhanger suggests it. I mean, just have to read the synopsis^^ It's been pointed out already, but with the aztec/mayan style those animal clothings (bunny ears) aren't too far fetched. That aside, if you ask me the bunny ears are clearly there just to make her look cute and appealing to otaku or whatever even if they are explained in the universe. I for myself don't have a particular problem with them when they have a reason in verse, although they do remind me of the bunny hood from LoZ: Majora's Mask xD |
| Much better than last week. The drawings aren't very good but the effects are. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |

I'd say it's going to be done by the end of episode 4. There's a lot of info to give so it takes time and they are taking it. I really doubt it's going in episode 3, especially seeing the title of that episode. Kytrarewn said: Namu12 said: I imagine this as 1-2 episode of characters introduction and 10 episodes of fighting evil but it seems it will be backwards ;p, maybe it will be better that way :). With 700 some odd posts, you should know anime better than that. It's going to be 4 episodes of introductions, 6 episodes of filler/fan-service, and then 2 episodes of fighting evil. No filler/fanservice in this anime. They are clearly respecting the original material more than any novel adaptation I've seen those last 5 years. From this you can be sure there won't be at all. The only fan-servicy thing in Rokka is the outfit of some heroes (both male and female btw). |

Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| Depending on the pace of the 3rd episode, it will mean either that they adapt only one volume or two volumes. It will reach the end of the 1st volume. You'll know things you want to know, you'll wonder about things that you won't know. That's a satisfying place to end. If it reach the end of the second volume, that's a satisfying place to end as well. Meaning, it's not in the middle of an arc, the mystery asked is solved by the end of each volume in volume 1 to 3 so any of those is a okay place. Now, obviously, you won't get a conclusion to the story. There are 6 volumes out and it's not finished. So if you want the end in anime, better pray for a separated 2 nd cour and anime sequels. It would be wonderful if they were to do it, but will they do it, that's another question. |
|
| Meh, while I'm all in for a perfect adaptation and whatnot I'd rather not just have 1 volume. |
 |
Paulo27 said: Meh, while I'm all in for a perfect adaptation and whatnot I'd rather not just have 1 volume. Just imagine if they continue to adapt the other volumes in following cours? Pretty improbable but, that'd be like, the dream as far as this adaptation can be x). Also, interesting enough, they announced since a while that there is two opening and 3 ending. While not impossible, that's a lot for a single cour, and a lot for a single volume adapted. We don't know yet who will sing the second opening, but we know that Nashetania's seiyuu will sing the second ending and fremy's seiyuu the third one. So, a split cour with a second volume? or the second volume will be adapted in the first cour? Either way, this news gives hope about a second volume being adapted. Or maybe they're going to change both opening and ending after they all joined and make a last ending in the 12th episode. But I would say, then that's weird since the first opening shows all the characters and not only the 4 we already see here. This logically should mean that they aren't changing in the middle of that volume, so that's for the second one? |

| Now this is really good, nice pacing and interesting characters so far I hope we get more backstory of them. How this is below 8 score while other garbage gets 8.50 in the first few episodes is beyond me. PD: Nashetania looked so much better without the bunny ears... |
| Did anyone else see Bunny Girl's lower body get cut off or was that just in the version I watched? |

Zefyris said: So, basically he's a Witcher, a professional monster slayer who knows how to create specialized weapons, bombs and how to kill monsters but didn't received the genetically enhancing treatment nor the magic signs training and only uses a steel sword... awesome :).[...] GSupernova said: I hope they show him actually constructing some more of that stuff he's using up, as that's the only downside, when they dive into enemy territory it's going to really press my limits of believability that he had enough mouth flamethrower parts(don't even know what to call it) to last the whole series stocked up beforehand. Saw the huge metal thing he was bringing to his horse at the very beginning of episode two? it's full of ingredients and already made weapons. and his three belts with lots of pouch are the same. And he learned how to create them as well, that's part of his training. [...] I'm looking forward for the next episodes. |
| Great stuff.Only thing that bothered me were derp faces, bad animation moments and CGI monsters (in short visual related stuff), but besides that, loving it.Also yeah...i can already see Fremy being best girl.Aoi Yuuki voice + cool attitude + white hair + sweet design. |

Now that I'm thinking about it, while adlet has a very different personality from our usual witcher, he's closer of a witcher type than any other character in anime I can think of. Interesting comparison indeed. He doesn't have magic signs, although he can still breath fire with his system ^^". |

| Why did she think he came to kill her? Also Im corious to see which one of them is the fake one. By my predictions they are all suposed to come toghether at episode 6 and then smoke out the fake later on |
