The Nemesis ? hurt him ? AH ! Look instead to this
and i specify that Seth doesn't have a power up between his fight against the Nemesis and this scene.


When was that again ? Also Seth did train with Yaga between volumes 1 and 2, and he doesn't exactly look like he's having the best time in your pic.

That aside, I'm discussing the anime here. Seth was crushed by the Nemesis. Yeah he can handle Fantasia, but physical damage is physical damage (if we're talking in RPG terms, DEF and RES are different stats) and hit by an unspecified spell from Jiji (on top of running like hell). Having him pass out is also a convenient way to introduce a scene change. So I stand by my point, it's not that strange for him to be conked out at the end.
The train with Yaga was just a way to learn him to manipulate fantasia with gloves, and here he has no glove. Normally, this scene will be in the anime (i hope they'll not missed it --') since it's at the beginning of the volume 4

This series is really growing on me and Seth is interesting to watch.

I wonder what's their identity though? I hope Seth is one badass demon or something.

Anyway, heartwarming back story and a bit sad. I like Alma and Seth's relationship. I hope the quest for radiant will be interesting as I hope.
If you hope a cool transformation, you'll not be frustrated !

Enough of the backstory. With tears in his eyes Seth leaves home on his new broom to fight Nemesis at its source Radiant (title drop)

passed out after a nemesis exploded right on his face and he was beaten to (almost) death by the Bravery Quartet right before Alma saved him from the Quartet.

Interesting episode, the series isn't bad

(I didn't read the manga)

Tho from the comments ppls are talking about Manga to Anime.

It looks like the Anime is following the path of "Generic Shounen" route.

Where they changes the story so it'll be similar to other popular Shounen series.

IE: Naruto, One Piece and Fairy Tail's main characters personalities and story plot line can be easily compared.

Seth, the guy with a mysterious backstory, hidden power inside him, unique powers, trying to be the best of something, trying to be the good guy to save the world.

All the same with Naruto, Luffy and Natsu... almost exactly, especially Natsu, Seth's personality is exactly the same with Natsu, even the character design looks similar, lol.

___ ___ ___

overall, I'll keep on watching the anime, since it's still a lot better than some of the other current season series... a mobile game, a rape sim, an adaptation of an adaptation and a crap 3D CGI series...

I'm kinda conflicted about the pace. I like that the show has a slower pace than the usual shonen anime, but I also kinda hope they raise the pace a bit to make it more exciting.

Much better than the first two episodes. I liked the flashback a bit despite that I don't care about Seth. WTF with the Inquisitor scene? Monkey D. Dragon, is that you?

I never expected much going into it. So it was alright. The episodes have nice animation and the OP is rad. I really didn't feel anything in this episode even though I think I was probably supposed to? I'm gonna keep going with this for a bit but not sure if I'll stay. The OP is what I keep coming back for in all honesty. "Utopia" is pretty great.

The backstory was done pretty well and the music too.

Hope the pace picks up.

I really interresting past though, very good of the anime to introduce this alma past which is not in the manga, the next of the past of alma and Seth will come may be with a season 2 (we learn more about that in volume 5)

Aaaaand they fucked up again...They made Alma kill the nemeses... <__< Seriously... that's because Seth can now take nemeses off alone that Alma let him go in the first place. (in source material)
Also Seth just lost consciousness from using fantasia ? LOL HOW AOUT NO ? He's supposed to use it like it's as easy as swimming/breathing. Using a single attack shouldn't make him lost consciousness.

They censored as fuck Seth's lynch.

Lol Seth just go without a fucking clue as to where to go ???
Alma didn't tell him about Artemis ? WOW... that's... really really bad plot adaptation. I don't mind filler but if it's to remove all the fucking plot that make sense in the manga to just put some shitty filler and destroy the character development what's even the point.

At least the Inquisitor scene at the end was nice. But seriously Lerche has clearly not a single clue at what they are doing and that sucks.


Okay, now this makes sense to me. I was so confused as to why Alma let him go off on his own when he didn't seem to be able to use his magic properly and was still getting his ass kicked. Like, he hadn't shown that he was capable of handling the nemesis, so it seemed so weird to me that now it was suddenly okay for him to embark on his own journey without knowing where to go and if he would even be able to win against a single nemesis (let alone take out the Radiant; the supposed birthing place of the nemesis). It would have made a lot more sense if he had been able to kill one off. I don't understand why they had take something that important out.
...At least let me finish.

Alma and Seth really went through a lot, from surviving Nemesis, dealing with amnesia, hopping from one place to another because people were assholes. Alma is one badass character for dealing with all that crap (some caused by Seth) while never despising people.
