Saikyou no Ousama, Nidome no Jinsei wa Nani wo Suru? Episode 7 Discussion

So what Element is he?

Wtf was this episode, so much was cut! WTF is there no voice for Sylvie?! we only got one side of the conversation! Tbate deserves better than this, how the studio has handled this anime is just shameful

Coming from someone who likes SoL, slow anime, I think this show would be way better to watch continuously rather than week-to-week as it is released. It’s not boring, but each week I’m waiting for more to happen in the 24-min episode. We are 7 episodes into a 12 episode season and I’m still waiting for the hook of this show that has people fangirling so hard for the source material. It’s probably due to the hype surrounding this release that I keep expecting more, but I still feel like the pacing and directing of this show could have potentially been done better. It feels like this 12-episode season isn’t going to even get into any of the meat of the source material and with how badly it’s being received who knows if we’ll even get a continuation.

I think it’s time I just dive into the source material cause this seems hella up my alley and I’m ready to wooh! Girl all over this ish.

@ShoupyDoo this show isn't going to be 12 episodes it's listed online as scheduled for 24. That's why the pacing feels so slow, theyre stretching out the contents a bit thin. If it was a 12ep format the odds are it's pacing wouldn't feel so glaringly slow. It's a common issue when adapting a web novel into an anime, as WNs typically have less total panels/content than proper manga, and all around less content than a traditional book or light novel. I agree the pace feels grating they have been dragging out the littlest bits of content here and there or inserting scenery as filler.

@Hot-Pantaloons Unfortunately if you look at the number of episodes it changed from 24 to 12

There’s a scene at the end after the credits btw

I’m unsure of how it was done in the manwa since I’ve only listened to the audio books, but the pacing is terrible simply because they’ve almost completely cut a lot of character development and world building out. Like they cut out so much of how the beasts will works
There were chapters covering his time in the elven kingdom, covering his training, his relationship with Tessia and even the bully character. It’s rather hard to watch knowing what’s been removed, I can only imagine how jarring it would be for people that learning the story through the anime.
