Yaasss!!! I was not really hype about the Anime Adaption news because all Anime adaptions tends to ruin the quality of the novel but if Ishikawa Kaito's going to be Iwatani's voice then it's a different story! Getting hyped now

Back when the Isekai fantasy genre really started to BOOM, i remember so many people keep asking for anime adaption of the series and after i read it, i can see why, this is one of the more uniquely well written Isekai tales to have ever come out and i look forward to it.

When it was first announced i was worried about if Kinema Citrus would be able to produce it well but after seeing how they adapted Made in Abyss and with this new crew line up i can say it has a lot more promise now.

Hope it turns out well, cause if done right this will turn into a classic in the anime community.

Also those that are still having reservation cause it is an isekai, don't worry it breaks all the tropes fast even by the time by the first episode airs, so look forward
to it :)

Been over a year since the anime announcement but still no air date yet apparently. At this rate, I'm starting to think next year although maybe Crunchyroll will provide more info at their event next month.

At least he is not MC. And it's not really important role, anyway, so you won't hear him often.

To be fair just because it has the tag multiple times it's not usually the most definite answer. Rakudai is tagged as a harem... even though that's completely negated after 3 episodes.

If there's only one that's actually interested in a romantic sense to the MC then that's not a true harem. Or a legitimate one at that if it's just one person that has romantic feelings for the guy.

the main group (/party) isn't even that big and only one girl of that group is in love with the MC. it's true that there are mostly girls around the MC but they are usually just friends. i'd have to spoil to tell you more but the story isn't about romance/love and the female characters can have their own goals that are not restricted to love

How are the previous roles determined? I saw one earlier for a director who had actually directed something before but the previous was something like: Neon Genesis Evangelion Character Designer Ep 17. There's needs to be a better system!

The seiyuu joke is too stronk----- I can already imagine all the crossover fanarts and memes that will be created. Sword hero who is a solo player on VRMMO RPG....

On the other hand, can't wait for Firotan's seiyuu~~

Don't expect any fanart for Bow and Sword Heroes. Only Motoyasu (Spear) is slightly relevant and has some personality.

Yeah Motoyasu, aaah I wonder how much will be adapted. I know this is a kinda futile hope but I really wanna see Ren and Motoyasu's adorkable-ness after their heel-face turn :")

Did you read the same novel? Or you didn't read anything? How and where does shitty lance hero have any kind of personality exactly? Sword hero on the other hand is the single other male chara in the whole thing that actually has a brain and actually did something when he started appearing

I read manga and Motoyasu being asshole is his personality at the beginning. He's much nicer in his spin-off

Tbh, they all get their own development mid-story on the web novel. I haven't read the LN and only the manga scanlation and I know the WN I've read is on a different route than the LN/manga, but I think all the main chara development on the LN is gonna be more or less the same as the WN version. Agreed that Ren's the one who got the most brain though both him and Motoyasu are so adorable post their heel-face turns.

I actually kinda wonder if the events leading to Motoyasu's spin-off are gonna be the same between the WN and LN/manga, since there are so many major difference on the events already.

(also I know this is off topic but hello fellow JuMilla shipper)

(Bless your soul)
Using his spin-off as his so called personality is just dumb tho? You can't tell someone who doesn't know anything about it that arguably the worst hero has any kind of personality lol, I mean sure obviously there will be developement eventually and he will start using his head but like 99% of people will hate him since he is absolutely brainless for like 50% of the novel
