THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Well this episode was much more lighthearted and we got a new girl showing up.

I kind like her sense of humor though.


Eh the date between Rokuro and Benio is cute I guess, both behaving much more normal than I had expected. Their training is more like trying to establish a deeper relationship than improving Rokuro's fighting skills. Kinako's rage is delicious L

Thats what i said last week, the series is starting slowly to go for a different route. Even showing one of the 12 divine generals Subaru, you can't even see her with that many interaction in the mangas.

Yeah wasn't feeling this one. I imagine fans of Rokuro and Benio's romance will enjoy this filler/anime only material, but it was a total snoozefest to me. Only enjoyed Subaru's surprisingly big, beautiful tits at the end. Rest was a bore. Unfortunately next week looks like more of the same.

Also, this anime added plot point of Rokuro's arm evil laughing and possessing him is very eye-roll inducingly cliche. I hope this is the last we see of it, but won't hold my breath.

Yes it may be cliche, but that arm is indeed a impurity kegare, not an enchanced gear from the start. So in the other way around you can say that it might be weird why manga didn't focus a little bit more on that arm instead.

Well this left me conflicted.

On one hand WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO THIS ADAPTATION?! They completely derailed it.

On the other... the comedy was nice and the interactions were cute.

I'm guessing they need some filler time?

I swear to GOD though, when they get back on track... THEY BETTER DO IT RIGHT.

Pretty decent episode, The character interactions were really nice to watch. Quite funny as well.

Though I have no clue why the show became so light hearted, Thought we were finally gonna get the first serious arc.
I do like watching Rokuro and Benio's romance develop, Both of them acting so flustered was cute to watch but I would like the overall plot to develop too.

Rokuro's been talking about training for quite a while now and they still haven't gotten to it, Hopefully next week has some serious training or something
The show has been quite slow to develop even by Battle Shounen standards.

Another shit episode. Complete filler and so boring. Introducing Subaru to just make up her character and abilites is a terrible idea especially if her character is meaningful later in the story. The stuff with Rokuros arm is dumb and I hope they drop what they are trying to do. Next episode is more filler so I'm sure more crap.

I agreed too. So Mayura can stick with Shimon, right? LOL

The moment I saw Tatara's figure, it instantly remind me of Kon from Tokyo Ravens.
So the "training" from one of the twelve Guardians is not for the physique but more like for the "bond" and teamwork between Benio and Rokuro, isn't it? Well now that I think after saw Benio's training flashback, I think Subaru's more that "kind" of teacher. Like the "Bond and teamwork with male" teacher. Even so, there's no underestimating the power of one of the Twelve Guardians.

This was soooooo incredibly cute and I could have perfectly enjoyed this if it weren't for the multiple animation collapses... I loved that they got to dress up but we had so few good shots with it. At one point they even made a continuity error and swapped Benio and Rokuro's positions.

At least next week they're still wearing those nice clothes. I'm totally ready to ship them now. This show does SOL better than action.

you know I thought this might be Pierrot chance to come back into the mainstream anime studio. After countless fillers in Naruto, I had hoped they wouldn't fuck this series up.

But Nope shitty adaptation. while they are following the basic storyline, they are changing waaaay too much. Subaru hasn't even been seen fighting in the manga yet.

not only that he animation quality in this episode had drop dramatically.

Absolutely nothing is changed.

If anything the anime original material expands and improves the source material in this.

The manga is still ongoing. So when they are introduced they will have a different backstory and abilities. Thats a problem if the anime ever gets that far. It seems pretty dumb to me. Not to mention she seemed pretty lame as a character this episode.

Sorry but everything you said is also ur assumption about what will happen in the manga and the adaptation. Not like ur argument has any more merit than ours. Either way. Its all opinion based. I liked the manga and while I didn't expect an amazing adaptation I expected at least a decent one which we would have gotten if any other studio did it other than Pierrot. So far I think this one is shit. I'll just stick with the manga.

Not sure why you can confirm this episode or the next is filler. Pretty obvious the anime slowly changing its route, so this episode might not be a filler. The production never said it will be identical copy to the manga. Plus its a long series which tend to be a bit boring, just like other long series anime(ten times the fillers).

Talk about Rokura's arm, its an impurity(kegare) arm and not an enhanced gear. Of course it will go berserk one day or another, so it is more weird to think why the manga didn't focus on that arm more.

I know you like the manga, me too. But you can't project that kind of will on the anime.

I know you have read the manga clearly. But no one ever said animes 1:1 identical to the manga. especially more so if its a long series. Your assumption of "I have read the manga so I know it is all filler", is a little bit hard-headed. Which you never even consider the chance of derailed and changing route to meet the end.

The introduction, development and interaction of one of 12 generals Subaru, how can this even be filler ==, even after the manga time-skip of not showing her in more depth. Its something new and means that anime can be and able to change its route. Contents not showing in manga does not equal to filler you know. Most importantly fillers don't effect the plot. Obviously the appearance of Subaru have impact on the anime story.

But it's possible that the studio asked the author about her character before writing this episode. We won't know if they have different abilities or not until she is properly introduced in the manga.

no they said the arm was part of a Kegare, leading to some complicated issue with Rokuro and why he didn't want to use his power. they never did that in the anime, yet. The going berserk in the anime was true to the chapter it adapted.
