Ngl, I enjoyed this first episode. It's flat but charming in a 2D way. Why not.

It's not hard to believe. He's kinda pitiful yet determined in an innocent, honest way. Feels more believable and genuine than most MC's in the same boat, thanks to the characterization being pretty good.

Maybe it's not a loli but just a petite woman?

I think they gave her boobs because she's a potential love interest; this way she is not classified as a "true" loli and so there would be less backlash if the main character gets in a relationship with her (since she won't be classed as being underage).

So it's kinda like Hestia is the role of the video game player as she can choose his path and skills as he levels up and Bell is her game character?


In some sense for gods with multiple people in their familia it's probably more like that lol. But she can't choose which specific stats get increased (well she could choose to NOT increase certain ones, but there's no benefit to doing that :P), whatever the adventure does in the Dungeon decides what get's increased.

So like being hit by an enemy will increase vitality. Running a lot will increase agility. Attacking things will increase strength. One of the key points the second time she increased his stats in the LN, was he wondered how his Vitality went up so high even though he only got hit once (Hestia hasn't told him about the skill that increases his potential.)

I'd liken Hestia more to like, a bonfire in Dark Souls when it comes to effect though lol.


Ah okay I think I understand it now, thank you again. :)

Solid debut episode, seems like it will be an entertaining fantasy adventure. I am getting a lot of Log Horizon and Sword Art Online vibes.

The other goddesses actually refer to Hestia as the "loli kyonyuu" so you may call her an oppai loli if you want (now that's a rare breed for sure). But yeah she's mostly just petite in my eyes

Btw I don't think that reasoning is really correct either since she's not human to begin with, so I don't think you'd need "excuses" for making that coupling happen even if she was flat

Solid first episode and a great adaptation so far, apart from not explaining how updating the status works and Bell's new skill. Seems like there might be a bit of a timeskip going by the title of the next episode, but we'll have to wait and see.

DEFINITELY going to continue watching this.

Not a bad episode. I hope Hestia is the only love interest; I'd hate if this went into harem territory, and because she's super cute about Bell. I'll definitely stick with it, so far it's hooked me.

lol I think I was overthinking about the whole thing anyway. But when it comes to these things people judge by appearance, you should know that... A loli can be a 1000 years old and people will hate on her if she gets into a relationship. Take fire emblem awakening for example.

Was looking forward to this until I heard his voice. He sounds way too much like Kirito from SAO which just puts me off. Do they have the same VA by any chance?

The art and the atmosphere are exactly what I expected from Dan Machi. Aizu and Hestia are just as portrayed from the Manga and the LN. Overall, a good start to what I'm already expecting to be an epic show (if they follow the novels at least...). Just hoping we'll get to at least up to Volume 5 or 6, and maybe they'll add bits and pieces of Aizu's side story as well.

But seriously, Bell's suppose to be in his early teens. I wouldn't have pinned them to use Matsuoka's normal voice for him. If anything you'd expect him to sound like a typical Shota, not a friggin 25 year old man..... And listening to him act all "in lurve" is just cringe-worthy. He's gonna be like this all show, which is gonna make it hard to bare...

Ah well, everything except Bell's voice is perfectly fine, so I guess I'll see if my ears get used to it in a few episodes....

Pff this is far from any sort of historical setting. It isn't even trying to go for the pseudo realistic world but with dragons and shit, it is literally a generic video game RPG world. Nothing wrong with that though.

I just feel Matsuoka isn't a good fit for Bell. I expected him to have a more cooler sounding voice, not his usual stupid sounding voice. It just doesn't match Bell.

Also, his skill is such a cheat. Hahaha. Can't wait to see what this series will bring.

Seems like it'll be a fun series to watch. I like the whole concept of gods choosing family members. Has a lot of potential for a lot of great characters. And going by the opening it seems like there'll be a lot more character introductions (hoping that the Hestia family gets more members but I don't want it to turn into a harem)

Haven't heard the OP, hope to hear it next episode, but the ED was good

I pretty much like the character design, and the visual is stunning.
I just need to get used to Matsuoka's voice, I think his voice fits the MC because he fits to be Kirito's voice and SAO is somehow the same as this anime.

Aiz is so cute to be the heroine. I like girls like her, she's too quite(or not?).

Hestia's bewbs tho. OPPAI DAISUKI <3

Not sure what to think of it just yet. This episode seemed interesting, but so was SAO beginning. MC already got a hax power up.

Hopefully this anime won't degenerate in faux harem, where every single female character falls for MC, but he is too dense to notice. (*cough* Nisekoi) Then again it probably will.

That Bell guy sure is a coward and couldn't do anything to the minotaur...

Awww, Bell-kun fell in love with that emotionless girl (at least she seemed so).

Hmm, that Hestia goddess is cute and poor... T.T

Dem Bell character stats doe XD...

Awww, Hestia is jealous :3

Poor Bell's pockets...

That guy from the Loki family sure was freaking annoying... damn bastard...

Overall the episode was nice and it's a rather interesting series to be honest.

Well... at least I undestood that Loki family members let some level 17 minotaurs escape and somehow one ended in level 5 dungeon, where MC was grinding levels killing Elwynn Forest boars or something.

The thing is he's not a coward, he physically can't do anything to it, nor did he go out of his way to attack the minotaur, it wonder up from the lower floors.
