Everything is so poorly executed, it's hard to take the scenes seriously. It's disheartening since Grimoire of Zero was so well executed.

Like why was the tree branch the Lizard man standing on just so happens to be a trap, and one which didn't make much sense (a rope tied to the branch somehow breaks the branch he's standing on, triggers crossbows to fire, and spikes just happen to be underneath...like what!?). Why did the hunter just casually give away Holt's spy background for no reason at all? And while I appreciated the anime explaining Holt's scheme of trying to get herself sick with the meat skewers, thereby explaining the earlier events, why did she even try to poison herself while eating with everybody else? There was no real reason to do that, she could have just done it in private. What's worse is if her plan to get sick worked, everyone would have doubted she got sick from those skewers since they all ate them too and were fine. It's all just done so dumbly.

So far the only good character seems to be the Lizard man, although his backstory was executed so poorly as it seemed ridiculous/comical (getting limbs chopped off as a circus "magic" side-show). He showed some determination though by grabbing onto the tree root, then biting it when his hands were smashed. He's the only one showing good character work so far, I still don't really like any of the other characters.

Ah. So the pacing got even worse somehow. Not an ideal sign lol. Kind of went into this expecting slop but it's pretty impressively mediocre to bad rn.

for someone who doesn't enjoy playing sports or tcg I sure like the anime series for them
