Gorilla no Kami kara Kago sareta Reijou wa Ouritsu Kishidan de Kawaigarareru Episode 2 Discussion

I am not sure why Sophia is hell bent on keep her being a junior knight a secret.. I mean keeping Gorilla blessing from everyone is one thing, but does it really matter if everyone knew she's junior knight? her school life already racked, surrounded by Louis, Eddie and Issac already messed it up anyway lol

All she has to do is be careful with her power, because it doesn't look like she has complete control over it yet

i honestly don't know how useful that dog fellow is going to be as a 'knight'. good message carrier with those legs.. but otherwise... what's he gonna do? sniff things out and bite people?? maybe hear things at a distance?? maybe a scout?

seriously, can those folks at her school just get some lives and leave her alone?

oh yeah, dude thrown into the tree leaving a crater in it like that? he ded. no, he ded. ruptured internal organs, dislocated joints, probably broken bones. that looked like a vehicle VS pedestrian accident.

this has major reverse harem vibes, i think a tag is missing, but it looks like a good anime either way

I get not drawing eyes on background characters but when they are part of the scene and even are speaking it's just dumb. Also this is starting to remind me of Guild Receptionist where she is way too focused on her nonsensical goal when she doesn't have to be. You got a great blessing and it's helping you make friends with great guys why are you rejecting it? How does she not realize how lucky she is? It better happen soon or I'm dropping this, not wasting my time for it to get better like Guild Receptionist.

@KiliianSleipnir Recon.

Her trying to hide the fact that she's a junior knight is kind of annoying. And tbh, if it became known that she was also a junior knight like them, I think some of the people in her academy might leave her alone lol

I guess if I was 5 years younger than what I am now, I might find the secret trope thing very funny but yeah I guess my tastes have changed.

@leonardobarba

yupyup, scout-recon definitely! alongside his legs, if he has 'tha nose' and 'tha ears'??? i'd stick him in light leather armor, short bow and dual wield short swords, small day-pack with at max 2-days rations and water. add in a full set of climbing gear (rope crampons etc.) just for mountainous regions. he wouldn't need a horse for active movement with those legs. i would have him ride in a cart/wagon so he could be Fully Rested at all times outside of active operations. make him light, agile, and fast as possible. in D&D terms? Ranger Class for hunting, tracking, mapmaking/cartography, and bowmanship with his Secondary Class as Rogue for the stealth, climbing, and backstab. pickpocket??? hmm less concentration there unless i thought i could use him for full-on extended infiltration of targets. but for infil i'd probably use the Assassin Sub-Class of Rogue instead of just a Straight Rogue.

unless the guy can increase his upper body strength to go along with his running speed? as a knight?? i dunno... being foot-fast in a fight can be useful... but footing/traction/obstacle avoidance... 'speedsters' aren't as useful as DC makes out 'The Flash' to be.

i'm thinking this author is leaning towards 'his girllia' raw poundpound 'Hulk Smash!' character development (so far) VS really fleshing out how 'useful' each Animal Blessing really will be.

@KiliianSleipnir Isaac runs fast and sustained, with stamina. By covering wide distances through the battlefield or the nobody's land, he does not need strength nor heavy armor or weaponry to accomplish recon missions. Sophia does everything Isaac does, with added strength. Geared with heavy armor or weaponry, she is able to cover and suppress for Isaac. The OP hints Eddie seems to be a natural sniper. He is able to cover Isaac and Sophia. Adding a combat medic -- Louis? --, they form an interesting squad up to a wide range of missions...

...considering the contemporary war on planet Earth.

@leonardobarba

mhm! but in a melee somebody who only runs fast isn't all that useful. you have to consider the 'force recon' concept wherein your scout 'forward operator' is often the FIRST CONTACT 'oh schitt!' soldier to accidentally run into somebody, like the Op-For's scout(s). sure Isaac can 'run away' back to the team for support. but that just leads the enemy TO the team instead of TAKING OUT the Op-For scout(s). Isaac is going to need weapons and armor and fighting skills for that. OR the author has to give Isaac 'da nose and ears' of a dog alongside those legs to avoid everybody.

plus... other than the specific 'run down the prey and take them out' breeds of dogs like greyhounds, whippets etc. dogs really don't run ALL that fast. the author's idea that as a 'dog' Isaac's running speed is crazy impressive... doesn't make a lot of sense. the sprinting speed and stamina for a long run/hunt plus a takedown and fight is more like a wolf than a dog, breed dependent of course.

whereas your concepts of a 'team build' does have a lot of merits... their 'commander' as a medic? \shrug/ yeah, having the leader in the rear with the gear is normal. but distracted treating wounds etc. INSTEAD of leading/giving orders/planning etc. ?? not such a good concept. most smart folks running a D&D party use a leader in the mage/wizard or other ranged attack classes. so, they're not in the thick of things and can keep a wider perspective on the encounters. plus, the mages have spells for detection and perception and communications... so like an air-traffic-control tower. :D

we'll have to wait and see how everything pans out in the future. alot of other variables are yet to be revealed. :D
