"He didn't say he could make more money tho, where did you get that from? Besides some shows that are better written than others aren't always more profitable", here's a little explanation tied to it this time, I'm refering that his point was never that he can make more money, he never mentioned money on his post; meanwhile I'm refering that a better written history doesn't mean it will be more profitable.Ionliosite2 said: I said it in my original message... quoting myself " He didn't say he could make more money tho, where did you get that from? Besides some shows that are better written than others aren't always more profitable" Did you actually paid attention to what I wrote? yes but he confident enough that he could write 10 times better story with chatgpt. This show is originally a web novel, the author also isn't an established writer and this is his first work meaning it's not hard to replicate the steps to get published especially if you have story that is 10 times better. If the story really is 10 times better getting even at least quarter of the popularity of eminence in shadow is far from impossible basically with story that 10 times better than eminence in shadow, the chance to make something big out of it also 10 times bigger. it's just statistics |
| most isekais start MC dying like within 1min in to the anime no background story to who he/she was at first, but this took basically hole EP to reach to that part :D defiantly unique so he fused himself wit a slime? |

Ignoring? Projection much? And now you're putting words in my mouth. I never claimed that he will make more money than Eminence in Shadow using chatgpt. Read again to my first respond without getting angry this time. I said if he really believe he can make story that's 10 times better than EiS using chatgpt, then he should publish it and become a millionaire, potentially of course. I'm not even bashing him, it's an encouragement. Yes better story doesn't always make money but you're blatantly ignoring the other outcome. With how successful Eminence in Shadow is, a story that is 10 times better would also have very high possibility to be successful. But if he really can write story that is 10 times better that is. Anyway getting angry in behalf of someone isn't really great time to spend your spare time |

| I didn't read the synopsis or anything and went in completely blind. This anime has long been in my PTW ever since it's been announced and it seems like isekai, one of my fav no matter typical isekai or not, so automatically that'd go straight into my soon-to-watch. Now that I finally found the motivation to watch this... I thought I was proven wrong and it's not isekai but normal Japan.. THAT WAS TOTALLY UNEXPECTED AND A FREAKING SOLID FIRST EPISODE!!! I was going into this expecting isekai like any other typical one, so imagine how I completely got blown up!! I won't expect anything higher but this anime seems to have a high potential to get a high rating from me nyum nyum nyum! But Nishino was given that much of a screen time just to let her role ends in first episode? This one was actually kinda... weird. Their relationship ends kinda abrupt. Just when I wished to see them getting along a little better... |
  𝑇𝐼𝑃𝑆 𝐼𝑁 𝐺𝐼𝑁𝑇𝐴𝑀𝐴 - NOT your usual shounen anime - Pure comedy? DEAD WRONG - Treat Gintama as SoL/weekly sitcom especially earlier seasons - Ep 1 & 2 are for manga readers - BIG patience for its 'slow' start |
| voice acting ain't bad. MC is the ultimate chuuni. alright, i'll keep watching this. |
| why do people like this show? because its isekai? because its a easy cash grab? because its a self insert? because the character is flatter than the flatter than the character's personalities? maybe. Or maybe its because it just a shit show. I like the early approach with the kickass type of character only to be yoinked by the isekai hook and be left in mediocrity. Sad, pathetic, and another dumb self insert of a show. i dont get it, i dont wanna get it. absolute garbage. |
  TOP SHOWS THIS FALL SEASON 1. Onepunchman Season 3 2. Gachiakuta 3. Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray Part 2 |
| Bro this kinda gives me code geass vibes and idek why :sob: |

| Season 2 is coming soon so I guess regardless of whatever people say, this series is getting enough attention |
| Well, that was an interesting start. Not the usual 2 minutes in and bam!! Something happens and then we get isekai'd. This one took the time to explain how things went around in the previous world. That said I wonder what this show is gonna be about. Looking forward to see the remaining 19 ep's. |
| Thats certainly a way to end the first episode. If there ever was a show where at the end it turns out the MC dreamed everything in a coma, its this one. At first I thought this was one of these stuck in a game isekai by the way he talked about characters, but dude is just a massive chuunibyou? lol |
