So Kelvin received a promotion while continously improving himself in that fantasy world.

One thing about this guy is that he seems fearless about whatever quests he sees. Honestly, maybe he should consider leveling up a bit more if he wants to take on some..idk, more dangerous quests.

He is making progress on improving himself though.

the quality really surprised me, they're doing a great work with this CGI
since Kuro no Shoukanshi is all about big and epic fights, this kinda hyped me up for the upcoming battles.

can't wait for Kelvin to earn his well deserved title as the Battle Maniac

No dude. The fights would be so much better if they were just normally animated. Looking at how Kelvin was normally animated and the the black knight sitting in front of him was cgi was so disorting.

The cgi is definitely less than ideal but I get it. Not every show has jujitsu Kaisen budget and honestly it’s bearable. If you don’t like it it’s understandable but what did you really expect from the trashy isekai?

i will continue watching this, but it really sadened me, because i liked the first episode a lot. If the mc gets bithcy around girls and it becomes another annoying harem, im dropping this for sure. But for now, ill keep watching, and sincerely hope this was the last of cgi!

CG is tolerable and seems to be comparable to RWBY, although the switch between 2D and 3D can be off-putting.

Lol the fears have been confirmed.

The op has shown the character rion and her outfit has been utterly censored.

Thist production committee is utter garbage, first censorship and to add to that they also included this goddamn awful cgi.

Didn't expected that fight with the knight on CG, but it was alright. Not laggy like Ajin's. A new addition to Kelvin's service.

The CG fight sure was a major downside, looked like a cutscene from fighting game. Mixed animation during talk with knight was ok imo. Knight's voice is a bit meh for such a badass character. Other than that I liked this episode. If they don't go overboard with CGI in future episodes it should be entertaining anime.

like a bad bad game cutscene fight.
CGI for characters it's the worst thing happen in the animation industries...
it's bad, it's ugly, and the 2D/3D transitions are too violent. there is nothing to appreciate in it.

Nothing against this show in particular, but why do so many feel the need to make the "evil-doers'" character designs so obviously evil? It doesn't even matter that he was a throwaway character, it can't be that hard to make a character just not look like a bad person. Looking past this, they then felt the need to have background characters mumble about how this obviously evil guy is bad and his terrible deeds. It's just over the top, at least in my opinion.

Besides that, CGI was cool I guess, didn't really fit but we can chalk that up to a stylistic choice.

The lighting and shading with the CGI looked so off. Looks like their attempt to blend it in but it just looked like a brightness gradient. Can't say I liked it nor did I think it made it any better.

That fight looked like a cheap in-game action cutscene lol. I've seen much worse CGI usage in anime but this was by no means close to the prettiest or best quality CGI I've seen. It still sticks out like a sore thumb and doesn't look consistent whatsoever with the actual show and what it's going for. Rest of the episode was really mediocre and forgettable to say the least.

ive watched a ton of bad cgi in anime and honestly this isnt that bad, sure 2d animation is always preferred but after the initial transition it didnt bother me at all. could it be better? sure. is it as bad as everyone's making out? not in the slightest.

I feel like some people who hating so much on CGI need to watch shirobako on the part where they debate in order to choose 2d or 3d animating, some studios currently might not have the time nor the budget to produce such thing, that's why they resort to this, which is totally fine in my eyes and imo 10x way better than arifureta (1st season atleast, since i dropped it off because of it).

As a fan of the LN I'll say I'm mostly enjoying this so far. The show feels calmer in tone which I guess is fine but the action also lacked any sense of... action. The CGI itself was fairly bad, and though I have seen worse it added nothing of worth to this show. If this show goes with lots of fighting I'll probably drop it, but it feels like they are trying to ignore combat if possible to me.

I can't say what the OG MC is like, most likely some sort of gamer.

But this new MC seems to be fairly calm about everything and very optimistic.

___ ___ ___

Interesting... the Slime can evolve eh?... tho it resembles more to Jellyfish Slime. (imagine what would happen if he evolves into Rimura... LUUUL)

And the Black Knight is not only intelligent, but he's also pretty friendly and chill guy, LOL. (3D-CG is interesting tho, since he's the only one in CG while everything else is in 2D) (tho some fight scenes is in 3D, and the ED is also partly 3D)


___ ___ ___

It's not a bad episode, there were some developments and the MC is slowly leveling/ ranking up. (also, the Guild girls seems to be part of his Harem already, LOL)

Talk about going from zero to 100 real quick


The fight with the knight was weird. It was mostly in 2D then suddenly switched to 3D, and I was taken aback. Then it started switching between 2D and 3D, and I was like bruh!
Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

I personally didn’t mind this cgi as much as others, tho 2D is still better. I cut some slack to some studios for budget issues I guess. Well, as a reader of the manga adaptation i won’t say it’s amazing but it’s definitely alright, unlike another adaptation of a manga I read (Lucifer and the Biscuit Hammer).

Instead of cgi they are better off doing 2d and only showings parts of the fight, just my opinion.

Kelvin didn’t want to draw attention but he’s already drawing attention just by soloing quests lol.

I could tell Cashel was gonna he trouble. He just came off kind of like a douche. Him and his buddies were like little annoying flies wandering into a spider’s web lol. A spider’s web with a slime gluttonia waiting for ‘em! Good lord Clotho got ginormous! Little fella evolved into a giant Muk lol. Good thing Clotho can shrink. Would be tough to hide that presence!

Gerard looks pretty scary, but he’s just a chatty old fella haha. I wonder if that candy was a werther’s original or maybe a mint lmao. But man, that was one hell of a fight! Glad looks like Kelvin’s got himself another follower. That’s 3, he’s got room for 7 more. Can’t wait to see who else joins the party!

I’m gonna go ahead and guess that old guy at the end was the guild master with a special quest or request for Kelvin.

Why the F are they cutting fight scene from the anime???

i mean the fight between kelvin ans cahel may not be epic on the whole but i was cool in the books and would have been cooler in the anime

and anime need to dump the 3d for character animation they should aim to blend it more like tensei slime rather than making actual main characters with bad 3d
