The preparation for the weathermon fight continues! Cool seeing some bro bonding time between Sunraku and Katzo. Nothing more real than just having a fishing trip with the bros in a game.

The snake fight was dope too, Katzo showed off his skills and knowledge of the game. Despite being level 25, he knows the ins and outs of the game way more than sunraku who skipped the prologue 🤦🏽‍♂️ this is why you don’t skip the info at the beginning of a JRPG. Can’t believe Sunraku didn’t even know about skill linking or guilds lmao.

With the emphasis in this upcoming fight being on player skill rather than level, pushing the mechanics of the game to their limits is going to be key. Can’t wait to see how things turn out

Emu was so cute this week, she tries her best to help out when possible. Gotta work on entrance timing though. Could’ve ended badly if Katzo wasn’t a tank today.

Next up, the NPC setsuna

The actual new content in episodes is getting shorter and shorter. No matter how fun the general story is, this is getting annoying.

Lots of fun, him skipping the tutorial and missing out on stuff was golden! Never skip the tutorial!

Emul is so cute too.

Its hilarious that Sunraku missed out on all that important knowledge just because he skipped the first town. On the upside it proves how good of a game Shangri-La Frontier is. Sunraku kept winning fights based on pure skill even though he was argually weaker than most.

I love the shot by shot composition of this show, it really gets you immersed into this world. Same with the battle mechanics its very fleshed out.

Also good on Sunraku for getting new weapons, poison based weapons fit his playstyle perfectly.

So because Sunraku discovered techniques and abilities that he missed by skipping the tutorial does that mean he'll be going back to the starting area later on? I imagine that he'll be even stronger having taken advantage of everything available. Besides that I'm wondering what this Setsuna NPC will offer, maybe a quest or item to counter one of Wethermon's debuffs.

Oikatzo's luck transcends all systems. He was the one to catch the serpent instead of Sunraku 😂.
That's trash game player for you. Skipping the tutorial town is the way to go.

There's no such thing as a tutorial 🤣🤣🤣
I mostly enjoyed the lake part of this episode.

The cliffhanger at the end was OwO

Btw, one of the previous side characters was in the SFL mini at the end. She's the drooling furry. I actually want more of her in the main episode. I hope some side characters can get inside the main episode, including the stalker girl...

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

I'm pretty sure Sunraku still has those green twin blades. I would have liked to see those again since his upgraded Vorpal Blades can't be used at the moment. I guess they're weak though compared to those new daggers that Bee made. That status effect from the EBTB's is broken. Easily his strongest weapons he's ever used up to this point. I wonder what Bee could have done with the material that made the green twin blades. Definitely would have been stronger than what the swordsmith in the second town made.

Guess he really missed the opportunity to have even stronger skills due to skipping the tutorial.

The different face expressions given to Sunraku bird mask are pretty fun to look at.

Animalia will never found the creature now.

Is Pencilgon going to fight that spirit girl? She said Oikatzo and Sunraku needed to be level 50. They're 8 and 10 levels away. I don't see why she wouldn't let them continue grinding for another day unless they fight the spirit girl, or there's a timer on how long she stays in that place. Guess we'll find out next week.

Good episode. Lmao guess skipping first town wasn't the best thing for him, but hey that just means he probably gonna make some crazy combos when he does get to it. Personally I think I would cater toward Oikatzo build but I could see myself playing as Sunraku. I like being tank and dishing out damage as I take it.

My man was living in the world with one hand tied behind his back, now that he knows about skill binding and being able to buy grimoires, a lot more useful skills and combos will make fighting scenes more interesting.

Well Sunraku skipped the tutorial town since it turned to be way farther away than Secondale. Can you blame him since he just wanted to hunt some goblins first. Hehe.

Talk about adapting straight out of the manga. They like skipped absolutely nothing. 12 episodes and only like 3 volumes of the manga. Started reading the manga today and went past this episode even perhaps 2-3 more episodes. I'm looking really forward to see the Wethermoon fight adapted.

Hahaha what happened to Sunraku is completely relatable to me. I have played many games in an accidental hard mode by skipping over a vital tutorial and then realizing how much it matters by the end. For example, in the original Final Fantasy I didn't realize monks are more poweful without weapons so once I took it off near the final boss it was all a breeze.

OH NOES... MCs corrupting the cute bunny with Degen stuff... she learned about the Life Mystery of "Traps" lol

(Tho it's not that uncommon... at least 30~50% of all MMORPG games has the literal meaning of "Many Men Online Role Playing Girls" (MMORPG))

And MC's getting cringed about having to get more affection (reputation) with more NPC... it looks like MC's never played actual MMORPG before huh... I think he only played Fighting and Single player games...

.

Ah yes... the "Skipping Tutorial" like certain Twitch Streamers do and then goes on to say "This game's mechanics sucks" when they don't instantly get overpower stuff.

And again... please don't squash the cute bunny... (even tho I kinda want to squishy squishy her too...)
