| Right because an anime having crappy animation for the part that you don't care about is fine. That's ridiculous logic. |
 |
| This Ep was comedy gold... When we switch to humans I just laugh and laugh ITS so good the Animation was fantastic... This Ep is so Funny.. best Ep so far especially the Animation.. i can't stop laughing. |
| Wow Kumoko saving a whole Villain... But Future Sophia design looks badass though... Am i the only one noticed weird cut on this Episode? I'm talking about Shun scene in the forest. That Animation was weird with those cut. I mean i get it you have low budget and wanna use still image, but don't made us confused. I'm already kinda used to the CGI, but for the god sake why you butchering the 2D part too... I hope this won't happen again in the future, especially with a much higher stakes scene. The Story is Great though... |

My god why.... The fight with the Arch-taratects was supposed to happen before the Old geezer party attacks Kumoko's nest, and when she gets out of the dungeon Mother is the only one to go after her, she is desperate, since the Parallel Minds where eating her mind all this time.... The rescue of baby Sophia is supposed to happen only after kumo escaped granny, Sophia's father wasn't on the carriage, and kumoko eat the 'bandits', Since she always eats what she kills. The elf squad was killed inside the mansion after kumoko sets base on the city's forest, and she only kills them because the Parallel Minds are back, and they hate elves, Kumoko don't understand human language yet to understand the elves plotting to capture Sophia. Potimas introduction was supposed to happens when Oka is first introduced, the only reason he is, relatively, on the castle is to 'help' her after all. They spend so much time with Schlain's side stories and yet the ONLY FUCKING TIME that shit is, in some way, important they go and do this shit... sigh... Its like they don't care about the story at all, just trying to get some money out of it with minimal effort... |
| I love the part where kumoko rolling herself because of jealousy with the baby vampire. in a human point of view is be like, "wtf with this spider?" lol. Because kumoko talking non-stop ( in human pov, she screaming in spider language) the human want to approach her but can't, and then she run away after bitching herself. Come on, girl... in the Schlain part, in previous episode and now, why Hugo still in the castle? he is the threat but still roaming free in schlain territory. No one giving a report about the incident about him want to kill the prince? Thats so stupid. Also, the King, alone? really? When there is a war with the demon, should he have a guard inside and outside his room? the assassin will easily sneak and kill him. With no guard, no magic protection or whatever, no intel or any spy working for the king, it's so easy to overthrow the castle. (the good thing is the demon or another rival country is stupid) I read the comment about the animation in the Schlain part. For me, I'm not aware of it. I only like the spider part. Even in spider scenes have bad animation (again, im not aware about it), I don't mind as long as the story is focused on the main/focused character and make sense a little. And this time, Kumoko's screen time is shorter... i'm sad. |
| Yay! |
| Whenever the human side is shown, 90% of the time I am lost. I forget about the characters every week and most of the time I am like "Who the fuck is that?". It will take more time to adjust to the human side. On the other hand, Kumoko is amazing as usual. Good episode. Would've been great if I had actually known who half the cast was and what were they doing. 3/5. |
 |
| Finally shit hit the fan on Schlain's side of the story, I always feel like I might have forgotten something that happened in a previous ep but i'm pretty sure it might have not been mentioned yet, still waiting for this whole experiment of having the past and the present of the story going on at the same time reaches a point in which i'm "Omg this is genious, so thats why they did the story like this" but its highly unlikely lol. But can we talk about this plains, omg wtf happened here, you can tell the animation team isn't bad cus they really do be doing dynamic poses with Oka but this shit looks like the person who did the storyboard just draw everything that was in their mind and that got approved with no revisions, the camera is moving around like crazy, this shit confusing af to look at, the action doesn't flow properly from shot to shot cus this almost seems it was done randomly. I'm not expecting them to do great camera work and outstanding animation, but this is probably the lowest point this anime reached in that department. Also, lack of sound effects, a lot of the motions or just shit like Shun bleeding when running but not hearing the drops makes it weird tbh. |

| Why did they chose that part of the story to get lazy with animation -.- It was so distracting and at places ridiculously bad. Story progressed quite well however so no complains there. Hope that it was one time thing with the quality but probably will see it like this for the next few episodes until... No worries, no spoilers :) |
olokinprime said: I really didn't care for the human side story in this episode. All I can say is it had too little of Kumoko. The anime is definitely not following the manga timeline, doing a good job of keeping a manga only reader like me guessing. ikr.I don't care about Schlain at all tbh, just wanna see more of Kumoko |
 |
| The 2D animation was really, really bad this episode. It's rather sad that the janky 3D animation of the spider segment looked better. I love it when the protagonist is framed and everyone is against them. Gives it the feeling that they're going up against all odds, and it's especially heartbreaking when you have friends or family or people that you respect think that your the bad guy. Unfortunately, I think the story botched this. First, the frame setup is unbelievable. If, as the brothers claimed, the king was planning to make Schlain king, the Schlain would have no motivation to kill the king anyway. He could've just waited to be crowned. Second, if Schlain was trying to kill the king... he certainly wouldn't do it while in the middle of the castle with no backup. You'd think that he would have gathered loyal captains and nobles to his side before trying to usurp the kingdom. The fact that Schlain had to flee for his life should be rather telling that he isn't the assassin. Third: because of the unbelievability of the frame setup of the first two points, the author has to rely on the crutch of "they're all brainwashed!"... which completely undermines the emotional impact of being framed. Now Schlain having to face his countrymen is no longer very tragic and infuriating, but just "oh, we'll just magic them to get better and then everything will be fine". |
| This episode did a really good job at expressing how little I care about the human plot lmao |
| Well that was a mess animation wise Still enjoying the show as a whole though |
 |
| Our Vampire Princess is revealed. The girl from the vending machine who Shun looked at with some form of negative emotions. I'm not sure if his impression was disgust, or thinking she was ugly or beneath him. The way he stared at her was clearly not how he treats "everyone else" in the class. The conversation between Shun and his brother lacks commentary so I rephrased so those who think "poor Shun" can reevaluate their impression of him. Shun: You're first in line for the throne. I may have everything in life handed to me-better reincarnation benefits than everyone from my class, the hero title, and more-, but that doesn't mean the crown will conveniently make its way to me. (sarcasm) It's not like heroes are commonly married into the royal family and it's not like princes who receive the hero title are usually given the position of king. There's no way the citizens of the kingdom who learn I'm the hero would rather have me on the throne than you. Cylis: Are you stupid. Father was already filling out the paperwork to make you king. How can you not notice something simple like this happening in your own house. Shun's situation at the end of this episode reminds me of a very important message presented at the end of Gundam 00 Second Season. Saji and Louise talk about their future together in the hospital and the meaning was: "If we want to live in peace, we have to worry about everyone in the world." Shun lived in peace while others around the world suffered. He didn't care about their sufferings and only wished for his own peaceful life to continue. He didn't even try to improve the lives of those in his own kingdom with his other-worldly knowledge and took everything for granted. As a rule of thumb, those born into royalty never have peaceful lives. There are succession disputes, wars, assassination attempts, rebellions, and more to deal with. -And yet this prick has the balls to question why everything takes a "sudden" turn for the worse? EDIT: I can't believe how so many people overlooked an important line and one-sidedly called Sophia a villain. Sophia: "Nasty. I guess when you're rotten to the core, even your blood tastes bad." |

| story beats were interesting, Sophia is a very intriguing character, however the huge drop in animation quality kinda struggled to convey what was there. |
noobymaster said: I love the story and I can't forgive them for doing such a trash animation on this episode. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE REALLY IMPORTANT!!! I just couldn't enjoy it to the fullest and the action scenes were so confusing, sometimes I just did not understand what the hell was going on. OH, I'M SO PISSED!!!!! Normally I dont complain about animation quality, but Sophia is one of my favorite characters in the novel, and to see one of het more important scenes more or less ruined...I get where you're coming from |
| LOL When Kumo was rolling around on the floor thinking about comparison between her and the vampire baby... from the other's POV "the fuck is up with this thing?" ___ ___ ___ And again... the Human side story is crap (in term of how shitty the story/ plot is going) I want more Kumo adventures instead of all these crappy drama and violence plz... at least just give me the Kumo violence.... ___ ___ ___ Also, I thought the Elf girl erased all skills from that stupid viking helmet dude... how the hell did she not notice the skill when she was erasing them? or did the dude somehow gain an OP skill from no where? Other note... from the way Sophia talked, she said "I was told not to go for Sensei"... doesn't this mean the Demon Lord (either Kumo or associate to Kumo) knows about the other humans she's killing is reincarnate and still decides to kill them regardless? So our spider is pretty much pure evil in the "current timeline"... (this series is getting kinda dark and fucked up eh?...) |

Maruseru93 said: she is a villain on earth she was a social outcast and ugly inside and outside but now she is a peerles beauty with K cup titties and OP as fuck because monsters are stronger than humans in this world still she is ugly inside and thats why i hate her this is like arifureta at this point she was ready to kill her former teacher and classmates with no hesitation if i was reborn in this world i would use my science knowledge to wipe her and the demons out Everything you just said about Sophia is wrong |
Fairis said: At least about the outcast and the ugliness inside, he's right. She literally revels in her new life, due to the complexes in the old I guess he's right about that part way. But in order for him to know about her ugliness on the inside he would've had to read the Ln(unless its in her wiki). So how one comes to the conclusion thats shes a "Villain" is baffling |
Raymond_Bermea said: So Kumoko is the demon lord, huh? Do you want spoilers? If not then ignore me, if so then: |

MegamiRem said: Glordit said: The animation quality took a huge nose dive in this episode? Altter said: Yes it did, some parts were basically slide shows. Reminded me of this studio's previous anime (Cop Craft) lol. Thou yeah story became much more intriguing.The animation was much worse this Episode. The story though, became much more interesting. I think Cop Craft had better animation (compared to human part) or at least because this series was "gun related" studio wasn't forced to move human characters that much during action scenes. |

| A human part proves again to be annoying, confusing and adding nothing to the story, as it continuously forgets its own previous points. It forgot that a stupid teacher can remove skills at will, and it even forgets that she already did that on Hugo, otherwise it would make the entire conflict of the episode totally moot. It also forgot that Hero is appointed by the system, not by the human organization, and declares that Church appoints Hugo to be a new Hero because of the crime Shun supposedly committed. And even if Church can appoint a new Hero as Titles equal to skills in this world, did Shun's skill just disappeared? No one told us that Shun had to be approved by the Church after he collapsed from skill overload, or whatever that was. It doesn't say so. A whole schism of two heroes is kinda pointless if there is a system above the politics that sets that up. |
| Signature removed. It was too good for this cruel world. |
| Kumo-chan is so funny lol I really enjoy the show when it's all about her. I won't comment on the others because they're still boring for me -___- P.S. Hugo is still a LOSER! |
