| This isn't as bad as I thought it might have been,but damn,that magician is really bloody annoying me for some reason.Mind you,I don't like him in the manga either |
 |
| Rubber bullets... I hated the main guy from the first episode but he gets even more annoying. Self righteous asshole with rubber bullets is the worst type of fantasy protagonist. Especially when you make others kills dozens of people but the main guy just cannot get his hands dirty to stay "likeable". |

People get the feeling to dislike him is due to him being a politician and he acts exactly like it. He look nice on the surface, but deep down he'll do anything to get the best result. Such as how he instantly decides to sacrifice the girl in favor of avoiding a war. (which is technically true in iRL's world, many people are easily sacrificed for various reasons by the country/ government and no one really cares either unless the said sacrificed is a big shot/ famous person) ___ ___ ___ Lets use current events as example - Industries around the world vs China's relationship. The NBA manager incident, one word of anti-china freedom-of-speech, and he's out because NBA wants to keep their millions of USD investment in China. The Apple App incident, Apple complies to China government in removal of APPs that helps Pro-HongKong in the fight against China, such as VPN to bypass China's great firewall and Police radio tracker. (which funnily Google add it as a default to their Map to track Police Speed Limit Tracking, same tech used in Radio tracker) The Nike incident, this happened in conjunction with NBA incident, where all Nike stories in China removes any Rockets merchandise. The Blizzard incident, banning a pro-championship Heartstone player cause he spoke out at the end of Tourny in pro-HongKong statement, and 2 Taiwan casters (which China also hates Taiwan cause Taiwan is Pro-Freedom and resists the China's "One-Country law"), even after Blizzard reduce the ban from 1 year to 6 month, they still take fire due to the aftermath and the casters are still not restored. Blizzard denies due to China's relationship for the Ban, but there's a official Message from Blizzard to China in Chinese saying they greatly regret the pro-player's action, this message was right before Blizzard first Ban the pro-player for 1 year. ___ ___ ___ Similar thing happening here, the main guy wanted to sacrifice the girl because he doesn't want a war against a country, but is stopped by the villagers and changes his mind. Overall, the guy is still a good guy in favor of Freedom and Democracy. But his actions can still be taken in a bad way because of how he decides to go about doing said actions. |

No, if he sacrificed her or was an asshole because he`s a politician, he`d be a much better character. But he seems to be the same type as Remedios from Overlord or the protagonist from Death March. Annoying self-righteous asshole. Btw shady politicians like Lelouch are great characters, this guy is just Kirito 2.0 way worse (and I looove isekai anime). My criticism is that he`s too pure to be shady polititian. He`s too nice to be believable or interesting. |

slavemaster_1991 said: Well, if you DO want to compare it with JOJO - you are already missing the point of Jojo. Jojo is over the top for the sake of it, it just goes "it sounded badass so we added it in". If I will try to remember every cool power that heroes from Jojo used only once and forgot about it - it will take me a lot of time. Jojo is about style, action and self-proclaimed fun that watcher/reader accepts and laughs along. Here is completely another case: it is not satire, it is not a parody, it is a template product that uses every single easy cliche and adds nothing to make it interesting. While I don't expect Diavolo or any of his underlings to be a deep villain (but remember that they at least were criminals so being bad is kinda a "must have"), I do expect that at least SOME importaint characters in a non-comic anime will have some sort of character and not "he is basically bad and that's all". So because Jojo is "parody" and "satire" to you, it's completely fine for having shallow villains? at least Araki fixed this in part 6 and 7. While you say it doesn't make it interesting, but it got into trending in broadcasts ranking though it maybe due to rape fetish Japanese fans have. |

Formidable-chan said: So because Jojo is "parody" and "satire" to you, it's completely fine for having shallow villains? Yes, different genres have different focuses. If you are trying to make a serious show - you need to take all parts of it seriously, without placeholders instead of actual characters. If you are making over the top style and fun above everything else - you can get away with some unrefined parts if it still looks cool and fun, it is more like bonus points if anime has covered non-critical parts, but it doesn't suffer that much if it uses some lazy templates. And I will still remind you that Jojo villains are all criminals who are evil by definition, but if you want to make a corrupt noble - you need to show how he is evil, and not comically evil "well he burns his own subjects cause they pay too much taxes and wants to rape an elf". To be honest I will never understand how some shows manage to be top trending when they are completely worthless. It is like with arifureta, it was not just bad, it was horrible - and yet top streaming anime that gets S2. Don't want to play an elitis card, but it is the case of "flies attracted to feces". |
| Here they are now, I doubt that their lives here in this world will be quite anymore, what they did was an act of treason and war. Kudos to them though, those shields were awesome, that Ugly Bastard didn't die in the end. I wasn't expecting Tsukasa to actually finish him off though. Anyway, a good episode, I think I will finish this anime. |

| Man, I have a weakness for the elf, I just love her design. I didn't need that ugly bastard action tho. Ugh. |

| Very good show with a good settlement instead of just an all out war and great compromise. It was a bit cheesy that they had such incredible weapons. But oh well, I guess it was a good episode. |
| "Miharu denki desu" |
| Actually starting to enjoy this show in a sort of guilty pleasure way. It feels like when you go back to the starting area of a game after having gotten stronger, it's just satisfying to watch. They're also not taking it very slow either with their introduction of modern inventions and ideas, and now they have a concrete goal: to kill the emperor (and apparently also a bigger meta-goal: to save the world?). Anyway it's fun for now, but I assume it will only last a season and stay as an incomplete anime story. |

Why you gotta break my research? D; |

| I was bracing myself because this was a point for some people to drop the show (so I read) but while the assault scene is HORRIFIC....I liked everything else in the episode. :/ WHY DIDN'T YOU KILL HIM, TSUKASAAAAAAAAAAA Elch using archery is cool...I think he's my favorite. Lol @amlg...maybe they'll make one of those mousepads for ya. :p |

| this episode is so ridiculous it is not even funny I mean a FUCKING RUBBER BULLET? come on, a guy who was trying to KILL YOU WITH A GUN, you shot him with a rubber bullet in return? I mean the plot is bullcrap anyway they the magician save all except lilulu tho...) actually can't save lilulu before it even happens more when the villager were all angry about it but then MC said lets sacrifice the girl and move on? what the actual fuck I thought someone said sth before (THEY DON"T NEED TO BE SERIOUS OR THEY MIGHT DESTROY THE WORLD in ep1 HMMMM) and then lilulu willingly to sacrifice herself to that ugly bastard tag typical isekai... I thought I was watching hentai for a moment... and then blablabla to the most triggering part I think I need went to give arifueta 10/10 |

| Man, I used to like girls being rescued before but after I've seen lots of anime shows, I hated it. Girls being kidnapped and then rescued.. blah blah! WEAK! |
| Bordering on hentai with certain tags and tropes. Elves always have the worst luck. This really is isekai trash through and through. |
| Ah yes of course the evil lord is an ugly perverted bastard Damn they really tricked me there with that gun |
 |
| Yup basically they're cheating, rail guns, advance metallurgy, etc. I'm waiting till they manufacture rifles and cannons then we can have their super-paced Industrial Revolution... and also democratic revolution, then everyone will be equal (equally armed too!). Wait, Lyrule can do magic too? I thought we just met the only known magic wielding hyuma right now, and Shinobu just danced around him then tazed him in the forehead! Or maybe that's the one who summoned them, the magical sigil-eyed one who possessed Lyrule? |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| i mean i get Aoi bein able toe fight, but suddenly villagers can go toe to toe with trained soldiers? |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| He should have shot the fatass in the face with a real gun |
 |
| SH is getting real new |
| Seems like Tsukasa the politician is not only a martial arts expert, but also a master shooter. Makes sense... |
