Touka's thirst for revenge kinda defines part of his character this season so far.

On the other hand, they threw a very dangerous monster into his adventure already. Not sure if this going to be a recurring trend but it establishes how dangerous their world can be. Not going to lie though, this show has a depressing mood...from the present timeline to the background storytelling about Touka.

I've read the manga and I was excited to see how the show would be, but I don't know how to feel about the 3D animation. I like the story so I'll give it a shot, but hopefully they don't butcher anything.

Second episode was just as I expected, pretty alright all around.

Are they cutting corners or no budget left? Even the MC is CG now.

The 3d animation on the monsters is okay for me since they are always animated like that, but when they constantly switch 3d and regular animation with the mc, it’s kinda annoying.

That was so painful to watch, the inconsistencies in art direction, the acting, the monologues, the sequence of events, the uninspired level system ...

This is already better than Arifureta. The CGI monsters looked weird but also creepy and gave perfect vibes for that ancient ruin. MC managed to outsmart the soul eater, let's see how he meets with the elf next

@Stark700 this whole interaction with the soul eater was strange. The battle in both the manga and LN are really different compared to what we saw in this episode but the end result is the same. I just can’t wait for him to meet Seras next episode and get this show on the road. Regardless what people may think now after 2 episodes, this really is a great story of revenge and a fantastic non harem love story.

That was painful to watch. The way he leveled up didn't feel earned at all, his powers make for boring fights, the 3D animation does not look great, the boss was lame and the "you thought I was a nice guy but I'm actually a bad boy!!!" bit was pretty cringe.

Well in the Light Novel I didn't really get what happened at first. I find it clearer in the Anime (no idea for the manga).

@Johnny-Jay That was manipulation. He made himself look weak as fuck (well he is) for a surprise attack.

I don't understand what is going on. He's talking about still having MP left while the visuals are showing very clearly that he has no MP left. If he has "natural" vs non-natural MP, whatever that means, they should show that. Just showing zero but letting him continue to cast makes no sense.

Weird 3d scenes used for movement of the character and drawn scene for closeup and combat.
I didn't liked the 3d scenes. They felt botched and done by interns

From a technical point of view, this is terrible. Animation quality, leveling system, plotlines, etc. That being said, I'm finding it relative entertaining.

@amf85 They are stats modificators that are added to his normal stats.

I really don't get the power system. He's facing off against monsters over level 500, probably if he's gaining 300 levels in one kill and they can't kill him or resist his powers. Over level 1000, his poison should be an instant kill, by then.

This isn't too bad IMO but the scenes were kind of dark so it's good to watch this in a dim or dark room. Regarding him being out of MP early on I agree that it could've been explained better since we saw he had 0 MP but still had "natural" MP.

Anyway, hopefully he meets up with the sexy looking blonde elf in the next episode.

@groudonvert I can't remember any other show which does it that way. Which would be fine, I guess, not everything has to be the same, but if they're going to spend minutes focusing on him using his "natural" stats and worrying about if they are going to run out, then they should show them. Just repeatedly showing us 0/33 while talking about some number we can't see is not good design. I guess it doesn't matter anymore, since his +stats are now so high he'll probably never use his natural stats, but that doesn't make the design any less dumb.

its like arifureta but low cost, I like it but the 3d animation is soo trash and annoying. what Seven Arcs was thinking by doing that, did they have no more budget? but overall its still good for me

The only disappointing thing about this episode was its CG. In no way independent scenes or frames were bad but they just lacked the cohesion overall as an episode.

Sure I was little disappointed with around 80% of MC screentime was in CG & as with every CG he was made more pale with no details on his face whatsoever. But the real issue was wierd and jerky transition between 2D VFX scenes, 3D CGI scenes & regular 2D character art scenes.

They could be handled much better & gripe of viewers will be way less about CGI & VFX characters.

I don't watch animes because the animation. I really like animes of almost all kind of gender and I like (until now) this anime. Has a meh history but is interesting. I prefer have an anime adaption that you can decide to watch or not to dont have one. This studio is like indi, and they are making an effort. Why the otakus fans are so annoying?

Seven arcs will pay for their crimes. They ruined Mabotai and now Failure Frame. I just don’t get why they take on these projects if this is what they’re gonna put out. Like don’t get me wrong the story of Failure Frame probably isn’t great objectively, but I love isekai and power fantasy revenge stories with waifus so it’s something I’d normally love.

But how can I get into it when even the MC is being turned into horribly blended CGI? Like these aren’t even motion intensive scenes where they’re doing this either. Like the first poison scene before the soul eater showed up there was no need for that CGI LMAO. It’s crazy cause the still art actually looks decent, I do like the glossy feel of the character designs.

Horrible production quality aside, the Arifureta allegations getting even stronger. MC in a dungeon separated from his class after being summoned to another world, eating monster meat, seeking revenge on the person who caused them to be there.. damn one of these authors was a fan of the other(not sure which came first)

I am really interested in the lore of the world, seeing the MC get his revenge and finally meeting elf waifu that was teased in ep 1 and on the cover of volume 1.. hopefully next episode gives us more in that direction.

This was some hot garbage. I think the only positive I can take away was that the soul eater had an interesting design. But everything else about this episode was kinda butt. Yet for some reason I may watch a 3rd… we’ll see

Anime great, just like the manga, only a few minor thing here and there skipped.

But the most annoying thing of all were all those janky CGI, they were so distracting and horrible.

Some of the softer CGI 2D/3D scnes was done nicely, but the movement scenes were horribly done.
