CGI was yuck.

At first I was like, "holy crap this is insane" when they were running on the walls and stuff, but then as it dragged out...

Yuck... You can't drag it out that long like that. If there are little cuts of CGI, sure. But that was like 4 and half straight minutes of it.

At least, I dunno... Have Maple and Sally go "Whoah! The art style of this level is different!" or something. Clearly the studio didn't have enough time to animate this scene but there are creative ways to get around shitty situations like this...

Maple being Maple is why she is a monster boss lol She ends up getting skills without actually searching for it lol But she has her weaknesses too, well, one so far, which turned out to be something as feeble is falling lava hurting her foot lol

Another fun episode, but that cg was not great. I didn't mind it at all when it was used as Sally ran around the room - the way they did the lighting for it almost made it look 2d - but I wish they would stick to 2d whenever you can see their faces, it's the bit cg is worst at.

Slime Maple is so cute. Brutal end for those two npc, she poisoned and then slimed them. It also caused a bug which is more work for the devs. LOL

Mii-chan slowly becoming more close to Maple. Just hope she does not get too dependent on her, and ask favor too often.

Sally got the items she wants, Maple is good friend getting those for her.

looking forward to next week! :D

I am so confused now. Why is there 3D CG scenes in this 2D anime? I'm fine if you use 3D for the monsters (and it is pretty much the norm nowadays), but why applying 3D toMaple and Sally? This is not an idol anime.

Oh wow, that was a really clean switch up in animation!
Noticeable, yeah. But still very clean!

I love how this show is slowly becoming "Bad game design: The anime"

The 3d battle scene in the middle is a bit weird, not sure why but s2 feels kind of fast, like 2~3 main bosses defeated in this episode.

Back to the haunted house huh. Quite creative to use their own traps against the spirits. Pretty damm cute opening theme. Maple doing the quest for Maple though was kind of her. Mii reaching out to Maple for herlp was pretty surprising. It's interesting seeing Mii in normal mode and not full on leader mode. Figures that Maple would have measures to protect herself when exploring dungeons. The second floor boss though proved to be pretty interesting. Stealing one's skills though is pretty cheap though. Only Maple can stay calm after being half eaten. Sally really outdid herself in her battle with the second boss though. Still looks like the admins are starting to get lucky with their anti maple efforts.

Good episode with Maple being Maple. I love the humor that Maple brings to every scenario. There are Nice action scenes with Sally taking the spotlight during the library scene with the book monster designed to defeat Maple. The CGI during these action sequences was jarring and a noticeable change. 

It feels the anime will focus on how the game can defeat Maple, and I love it. That new admin in the developer team sure gives the team this sense of seriousness to defeating Maple. I bet she got on board and immediately questioned, "how was this allowed in the first place?".

the CGI to not CGI was so disturbing to look at 

This episode screams potential duel between Maple and Sally. I mean, the monster in the second floor is literally anti-Maple and 
is like Maple but Sally used something to defeat it. And after that, she's like awkwardly looking at Maple. 

And we all know that Sally usually says that she can't defeat Maple. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

slow Maple haha
Maple fell in the slime but quickly found a way to get back up
she caught those ghosts and got Sally's item along with something else

mods hating on Maple as usual

so she got Sally's boots, an item that summons ghost hands (???) as well as a cute outfit with a useful skill that carries items, interesting

Mii-chan appeared, and she wanted the fire boosting item, but she needed Maple's help
being able to stand there and prepare a big attack without getting any damage sure is useful, Danmachi charas would love that lol
i guess, each character (apart from Maple) really focus on 1 type of thing, Mii uses fire, Sally has agility, etc
Mii-chan keeps complaining about being a guild leader, she can't relax at all, she shouldn't have pretended to be cooler than she needed to be haha

Kasumi and Frederica appear, and Mii goes into cool beauty mode lol what a difference
people talking about beating Maple in the next guild fight, but that can't be easy
LOL Frederica getting ideas to beat Sally by using a ghost, but Maple advised her not to

next event started, one map for each guild, so no fights
Maple choosing the hardest possible difficulty, would be funny if it was so hard that even she couldn't beat it (i hate how some games suddenly go from easy to impossible to beat (unless whales) just because we choose one level difficulty higher lmao)

what the hell, Maple went into flying wool with ghost hands and her own cannons, she is original with her skill combos
so her machine got a new upgrade, probably missed that in the other episode

rip that dragon, mods had to give it a weakness, and Sally didn't miss on it, telling Maple to destroy his mouth when it breath fire

glasses Maple, KAWAIIIIIIIIIII

oh, so that's what the mods said is harder to beat, it instantly stole her cannons lmao
wait, it actually stole ALL of Maple's skills other than provoke LOL

that being said, i'm surprised Sally isn't scared at all
i guess she knows all those skills and easily dodged them, and ofc, hitting targets to do damage to the boss when it used the angel skill ... i wonder what her last skill was, we didn't see
this fight had cgi, even i noticed it and i rarely do, but it was a good scene anyway ... but i'm sure people complain about it lol

Maple is back to normal, and next is the 3rd floor, where they need to fight a monster while barely having space to walk, that has to be scary ... except those 2 can fly, so it's not that bad LOL Maple ends up transforming and finishing it with 1 bite, easy

the mods trying to confort themselves by finding anything that works on Maple lols too bad that Sally covers whatever weaknesses Maple might have, so good luck with stopping the duo without separating them like they did in the ghost house
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices)

I wonder why the cgi looked so bad this episode. In the other episodes and the first season in general it was barely noticable to me or I never thought that something looked out of place at all. If I had to guess I would say they didn't have the time to work over the rough edges in the book bossfight before the episode had to be released. I just hope the next episodes will have a little more polish as the series itself is a lot of fun to watch.

Lmao the second floor battle was definitely outsourced. The devs bitching about Maple being OP: "We've tried nothing and we're out of ideas!" You can't say "nah let's not nerf her" at the end of S1 because she's the poster girl of your game and then complain when her braindead transformations that you added to this game one-shot your monsters.

I would be surprised if the tower didn't have some ghost or an entirely haunted floor.  Time for Sally to get over her fear or a least handle it a bit.  I think that hidden power she used on the book probably came with some kind of ghost or ghoul.

CTRL+F "CGI" 😅


The fight sequence in the library wasn't that bad if I'm gonna be honest. I only have one moment where I disliked or thought the cgi was kind of unnecessary. After the end of the library battle, when Sally was looking upward toward the aftermath, the part right there with the cgi just felt off to me.

Solid episode altogether. It would be nice to see Mii-chan find a way to drop her "leader" act around her other friends/guild members though.
Respectfully ofc

I did notice the cgi, and I had to internalise my hate of cgi, because I have discovered AI. Check out my profile pic. AI generated from 5 keywords. All these studios ever increasing there use of CGI are going to put themselves out of a job soon because the computer will do there job for them, and the closer it gets to producing anime styled visuals vs traditional western cgi crap 3d moving models, the closer we get to the singularity. Im ready for the leap. I fully embrace our AI, just give me good story!

P.S, love this episode!

LOL, Maple got slimed again.

But apparently Maple broke the game again with too much object in one place? (which doesn't make sense, as in earlier episodes/ season, there were times where tons of stuff are all in one place...)

Tho, Maple got a new outfit, LOL.

___ ___ ___


And then we got a Maple x Mii DATE.

BTW, I noticed that Maple's Flying Fortess combo doesn't have a cooldown like Atrocity?

So Maple can pretty much use Loving + Throne + Turtle and most likely summon her Oni Army all at once non-stop?

There's not even a need for Machine God or Atrocity anymore huh....

___ ___ ___

LOOOOL @ the fluffy sheep cotton ball skill. So cute.

Until Maple spawned giant cannons out of it...

And Maple apparently can change her Machine God's shape on whether to equip more or less weapons. Her version 2 is basically "Infinite Stratos mecha suit"

___ ___ ___

And the DEVs apparently made a special counter to go against Maple, by having a Boss that steals players OP skills.

With Maple mostly out, Sally went crazy on the books and used a new skill to beat them.

(as a note, it still looks like while Maple will have difficulties beating the boss, the boss apparently also still can't defeat Maple even with her own OP skills, Maples default DEF and VIT stat is just TOO HIGH...)

I actually really like this show they give us so much content, lots of fights decent conversation, lots of situations where Maple and crew is being OP.

This episode was especially good because you could see the girls actually try to strategize and defeat a boss monster instead of Maple just stepping on them (heh).
