 Not every anime has to make 100% sense. I think it is more of a problem between you expectations and what you got rather than a problem with the show itself. |
  愛がなければ、見えない。 Without Love, the truth cannot be seen. |
| If you do not like it, Just go and Watch one of those Cliche İsekai harem trashes, This makes 1000 times more sense than them and have an ACTUAL story |
| I could tell you that your points are half wrong because you just don't understand what a passion is and half wrong because things actually get explained later on, but the fact that you compared this anime with School Days left me speechless. |
| 1. You're right, but imagine you love reading, and you're suddenly thrown into a world where any written medium is hard to come by, especially those of any meaningful length (eg. books). I'd imagine you'd crave any kind of stimulus in that manner, be it a gardening book, religious scripture, or the damn dictionary. If I was sent back to 1972 and the only videogame I could play was an Atari, you sure bet I'd embrace Pong, even if I wouldn't touch it nowadays. It's that attraction to the medium itself, not necessarily the individual work that drives a lot of interests and passions. 2. Not REALLY spoilers, but had you watched more, you'd begin to see that she wants to create a books in order to spawn a more wide-spread adoption of them, and increase their accessibility to the masses, who will then create books for her to read. 3. It's a cartoon, kids do as they please. Regardless, kids into the early 1900's were given far more responsibility than they are nowadays, and I don't think the portrayal in the show is wholly inaccurate. 4. Myne isn't mentally 5, she's like 19. Lutz is pretty smart I agree, but the author didn't want her to just talk to just talk to a brick wall all the time. 5. People begin to catch on to her later. |

| She says it in the anime as well. She loves the books as a medium as well, because of what they brought to humanity (the ability to transmit knowledge from long dead generation, far away, and so on and so on). There's nothing ridiculous about loving books as a whole. Just because you can't love them that way doesn't mean someone loving them that way is silly or impossible. You're the silly one for trying to make sense about what peoples love and don't love. Nobody gives a damn about poor kids disappearing except the parents themselves in this world anyway, and the parents are poor so children have to help. They also stay together and the town is actually relatively safe. This world is different from ours in many many ways. Did you see a single homeless person so far? It's not that it doesn't make sense, it 's that it's a different world that has both advantages and inconveniences in its differences. All of those make sense if you keep watching/reading the story. Not if you stop after watching quite literally ~1% of the story content and complain that things are not yet explained to you... when kids have to do things by themselves all the time, they get "mature" way faster than when they don't. It's true even today as well. Nobody? Did you miss what was literally the FIRST SCENE IN THE ANIME perhaps? |

| Myne is kind of like a 20 year old in a 5 year old's body. She has both an adult mind and a child mind. |

lol why is this even a thread |
I love K-On, and so should you.  |

supransh said: 2. You can only love a book for its CONTENT, not the whole thing, so holding is book is stupid, and creating one is even more stupid just because you love books. An author will write a book not because he loves books, but because he wants to express his views ro other people through the medium of books. Okay, I just read this whole post and this is just offensive. Writers write books for many different reasons. Because they love stories, because they love writing, because they have a story to tell, because they want money, because they have a message they want to share, because they want to express themselves etc.. I write for several different reasons, not just to express myself to other people. Most of the time, because I have a story I want to tell. Myne wants to write because she loves books and this world has no books so how is she going to read books if she can't write one? AtmosphericEntry said: Clearly someone's never read a book in their life. . . Apparently, he reads manga. I'm just wondering if he's ever talked to an author/screenwriter in his life because as an author and a screenwriter, this is so superficial and untrue. |

| I just finished season 1. I must have dozed off at some point because it seems I missed the stupid parts. |

| I didn't like the first episode at all, so I dropped it. Art style makes little kids look like adult dwarfs, very un-cute. Urano's mind replaces the mind of the actual Myne which seems like an awfully cruel fate for a little girl. The imposter Myne adapts to her new reality much too easily. |

Without Urano's consciousness taking over her big sister would have discovered a cadaver instead of a still alive little sister. Guess which one is a more happy outcome for her family. It's not like Urano pushed away the original personality or something. Children dying is always a cruel fate for the child but it's not like it will stop from happening just because it's cruel. Well, she certainly is smart and educated enough to understand what happened to some degree; and she has the original personality's memory to help, if that's what you meant. If you meant that she became okay with it too easily, surely you've missed her crying and feeling like that family were mere strangers to her. |

Myne and Freida look that small because of the Devouring if you watch up to episode 9 I think they tell you. There are some people that are that tiny you know, drawfism, height disorder, and stunted growth are a thing. I've seen a few 5-7 year olds that tiny. I do think Turi looks very small for an 8 year old but realistically, some 8 year olds look that tiny. |

Aug1799 said: That's all well and good. But i still can't get over the fact that she prioritises books over everything. Kind of unsettling for me personally. But overall a great show and amazing story. You are not alone, even almost all anime characters there think her loving books is a bizarre thing lol. It is an odd thing, really, but just treat it as a unique charm trait instead of judging it as an impossible phenomena. Magic doesn't exist and doesn't make senses in the real world scenario but people still love it, no? Some users here judge this anime doesn't make sense like little kid creating goods, loving "book" is ridiculous, and bla bla bla but to me they just look like some boomers criticizing people who love fantasy/fiction thing. Aug1799 said: You're not wrong about the slow plot. Heck even i put it in hold after watching 3 episodes cause i was bored as hell. But then I just got curious what could give this anime a rating of 8. An 8 is no fluke, and ppl who rate this anime are not idiots either. The point of the matter is that there's no adversity to the character, so it feels really boring. But as the story develops they have introduced some interesting characters, some magical concepts some adversities for the MC to overcome. They have done justice to their isekai tag. It's just that it goes in a very detailed approach giving lots of info about the characters before delving into the main plot more. If you want to experience a good anime i definitely recommend you give it another shot. But don't jump in expecting her to start shooting flaming fireballs at goblins or maybe become a knight and fight the forces of darkness or something along those lines. That won't be happening. I can second this. To make it more clear, the author of this series didn't focus into one specific story while writing this masterpiece. Rather she just combined "making things", "fantasy magic world", "good overcoming evil (drama)", "gathering materials", and "school" into a single work. The first season focuses a lot on making things and world introduction with a little spice of magic in the last episode, so it is normal for people who love magic fantasy OP MC to be bored in the beginning. Unfortunately for you fantasy only lovers, the second season story is also relatively like season 1 with different setting (temple), a lot of drama (talk, less action), and more magic fantasy teaser in the later episodes. Finally, in season 3 we get more magic battle but the foundation of magic is still not yet explained. |
Aug1799 said: haha my bad about that last bit, i wrote it when i had just finished S1. yeah she does use get powers quite a bit in S3. I mean even if I'm fascinated by magic, I'm pretty sure i wouldn't prioritise it over everything else in my life. I mean it's like would i rather learn magic or get food for my starving family. I'd pick food. She would've picked books in that scenario. though again that was from my pov of S1, she definitely gets a lot more attached and closer to her family as the story progresses. I see your point, so it's not like you judging her personality as a non sense but more like uneasy/upset/disturbing feeling. That's completely fine then. |
