| I peaked at the first episode preview thing (~7min) for like 2 minutes and wasn't convinced to watch it. I just started watching the actual episode (pre-opening theme) and can say they did so much right with it that I'm seriously considering it. Spoiler: |
 |
| Well, when I first heard about this being 3DCGI I got scared, but now we must admit is fine, if all the episodes are at least at this level I'm fine. And now, the thing that I enjoyed the most is listening to my VA goddess Aoi Yuuki, she is fckin great, I could enjoy literally every anime where she's voicing a main character. |
 |
| As there are more people who got reincarnated, this anime differs from the slime story I guess. I haven't read the manga but the reviews on that are enough for me to keep watching this. I think the animation is well done. |
| Im just here to say the ED animation is lit AF. hahahahahaha. Average first episode otherwise. |
| Even though I've been reading the Light Novels of this show, I'm not impressed at all. The moment I saw who the VA for Kumoko was going to be, I instantly knew that this was not going to be so good. I will watch this entire show either way. But I do recommend the light novels. The CGI looks like sh*t but whatever. Can't wait until they show the real deal from scratch for the reincarnated humans. For those who don't know, this anime will actually follow several MC but the spider is the biggest main one, for obvious reasons. |

Zero11s said: "reborn as a girl" okay that went downhill really fast Do you really feel that insecure with masculinity? If not why is it a problem that that happened to a secondary character in the series, especially considering the main character reincarnated as a different species entirely...? |
| The spider part was kinda meh, I've read that this has a great development, so I'll give it a try. The human part was super great animated, and the characters have great designs, might just watch this just for them. |
 |
| Waiting for Pottymas to appear. Elves elves elves elves elves. ELVES. |
| The trouble with the future is that it keeps turning into the present. |
| Of course! animate the best character in a horrifying CGI, while the group of generic childs are in good 2D animation, clearly no predilection here, notice the abysmal deal between a normal isekai like mushoku and this one of a female protagonist |
"reborn as a girl" okay that went downhill really fast you better stop watching isekai, because lately a lot of light novels do this and they really are better like this. |
| the background music when she is thinking at the start feels like an rpg game. Good job bgm people. that's a monstrous looking deer! brutal death for frog monster. the human parts are terrible, annoying guy needs to die. and lastly, the ending where she sings as a spider idol being cheered on by other spiders is hilarious. lol looking forward to next week! :) |
| If anyone is complaining about the MC being annoying then it's better off if you drop this now. It's her personality trait. For the CGI its bearable to look at artistically, but the animation is definitely clunky at times and the only robotic cgi scene I've really notice so far is in the opening. (some may even say the frog as well) For pacing, I don't mind the dungeon being a little fast paced but if it goes beyond that for the plot I'm sure nobody would be appreciative at that point. 7/10, For the director of 2016 berserk and widely known for his tekyuu I think this is probably the perfect series for him since he got what it takes to capture kumoko's wacky personality which the tekyuu practice paid off for Biggest complaint has to be the camera angles, I believe kumoko had a lot of zoom ins and the op visuals had them as well for the layers of the dungeon. berserk also had some shitty angle shots from this source: https://youtu.be/0jiGOOBVxUk 0:18 While it's not bouncy as berserk you can definitely tell they like to zoom in a lot, probably to save some budget maybe. |

| Damn, that was actually really good. Yuuki Aoi did a fantastic job, I enjoyed her voice for Kumoko. As for the visuals, I actually don't have a problem with it. I thought that CG was good, at least definitely better than a lot of shows that use CG out there. That ED though holy shit. |
 |
It does show in the OP. See that almost naked lady in the eye of another lady? See the lady with the red iris after the lady with the fangs? |
| The trouble with the future is that it keeps turning into the present. |
| The animation wasn't that great but way better than trailers made it seem. Think this will be decent and with some luck, the animation does pick up some steam after this because it's not bad, but the CGI isn't as consistently decent |
| From the first episode looks like your typical isekai meh |
 |
| Every time the spider spoke all I could hear was Tanya from Youjo Senki. Turns out they are voiced by the same VA. |
| The ending song is absolute madness, perfectly fitted for Yuuki Aoi... XD |

| I'm a fan of monologue-heavy anime but Kumo desu ga, nani ka? i can't say like it, maybe because of the slow-paced start with the spiders that i find myself nodding off a couple of times. Tho Yuki Aoi did a great a job voicing the MC, as for the CG it is fine. It has an interesting concept that kinda similar to slime isekai, but i for now this bores me. I hope we get a big development later in the series since it is a 24eps anime, but if it won't this could just be another boring isekai. |

thundernekomew said: I know it say novel (and I dont know how much the manga change from the novel), but- I read the manga before and pretty sure there isn't any important human roles coming up that soon until the other half of the manga and now only ep 1, make me wonder is they gonna skip the epic fighting and levelling stage and the surviving of the MC(spider) and make more beautiful girls coming out sooner for fan services only? On the Light novel, the second chapter is from the perspective of another student. It's the manga that skips almost half of the story. |

In the LN there are human chapters early on, which the manga skips. The human chapters add a lot to the mystery and world building and make for a great twist by the end of the dungeon arc. If you enjoyed the manga I highly recommend reading the LN from the beginning, they are much greater and have more content. |

| It was mostly fine |
 |
| Is this going to be one of those CG-discussions? Yes. Sadly I can't get over it and distracted me from the rest of the episode. Also I found it weird how the overhyped spider personality didn't match with what we saw of MC human form. Anyway, I hope the rest of you can enjoy this series. |
| The opening and ending songs are so crazy and uptempo and so are the visuals. It's okay so far, 24 episodes huh? I only started watching this after it aired but I expected about 12 episodes for this type of show. But 24 is good! Let's see what happens next! |

| Given how much I'm enjoying the LN this is pretty decent to me. Everyone seems to be moaning about the cgi but I think its not bad at all. Cute spider is gonna be the highlight of the season for me, can't wait to see the ed translated. |

| I actually really liked this. I went in with low expectations after the trailer but i had a damn fun time with it. Looking forward to more. I liked how hyper the mc is so far, makes for a different type of protag. |
