>>269219278She's not that flat.
To all the fucking retards who said Belle killed Lablac in Episode 1, they had to spell it out this episode "My body is still alive". She killed her memories of him. Not him physically.
>>269219733Who cares

HORSE P-...cock? COCK
Piling on random names and ideas is not worldbuilding
>>269220472i'm glad this is doing something original though
easily one of the best shows this season despite being so vague and weird. I love all these bizarre rules and schizo babble. that said seems like they ran out of budget pretty quickly.
>i can't win if i can't cut!just smack him over the head and knock his ass out, easy
>hands bleeding from the force of the impactgnarly
Jesus Christ that was a good fucking episode.This really is AOTS.
>kill me>NOOOOO NOT MY SWORD
>>269220633swords are very important living beings, having yours broken is WORSE than being killed in this setting
>that laughDidn't know I was watching a villainess isekai.
>>269219220whats this anime about?
>>269220731swordsexual tomboy embarks on a witcher-esque quest to find out why she's the only human being in a world populated by animal people
>>269220731Swords.
Fuck.... that part got me.
>>269219733We weren't mad that she killed him, we were mad because it makes no sense she had to fight him to begin with. Still, that's a very small blemish on a fantastic show. It's really good.
>>269220731Berserk if he a girl.
>Natsuki Hanaei'm not gay, BUT
>>269220857she didn't even kill him and they had to fight so he could mindfuck her and delete her memories and install some sleeper ones to guide her on her quest
>>269220899I still don't get why a nomad needs to have a curse.
this brat is honestly begging for it
Tomboy angery.
>>269220930>I still don't get why a nomad needs to have a curse.by travelling as a cursed nomad, it eventually turns into a blessing

This is the gayest name on earth.
>>269219220>AOTS.DisagreeCan we really not have panservice?Her bathing scene in a previous episode didn't help.
I don't understand the lore behind the importance of everyones sword?
>panty schizo is fucking here as well
go tell your parents you love them right now /a/
>>269221257I-I wish I could...
>blushes at girlIs this yuri?
>>269221290Is the girl a sword?
I don't like how he's looking at Belle.
>>269221330In the LNs he is 100% homosexual.
>bellemoto>belles imoutoCUTE
>>269221446Man this girl sure is violent for no fucking reason.
>>269221468dude these people were fucking slavers who abducted her family
>>269221468Violent girls is the new hotness.
>>269220972That's.... actually kind of awesome.
>>269221183Your sword is alive. You basically share your life energy with it, and it becomes part of you.
this is really just Alice in Wonderland meets Berserk mixed with traditional Shinto rights, huhalso everything's named after alcohols
I like this tomboy so much
>weird as shit>still amazingsasuga, Belle-sama.
>>269221877also the Witcher, forgot about it

>>269222220What about girlswords?
>>269222199>cloaca.
>>269219220FeMCs VA is terrible
Cute!
I honestly have no fucking clue what is going on. Like half the dialogue is opaque nonsense with random words used like I'm supposed to know what they refer to, they even flash on the screen showing they're significant, but there's no ensuing explanation for it. Stuff happens apparently at random, following some internal logic that's never explained.
I swear this guy is the bunny-boy version of Campanella. I like him already.
>>269222712The first two episodes weren't that hard to follow even with the constant vocabulary, but this episode does seem to be slipping into Metallic Rouge territory at times. I hope it's just a one-off case of subpar scripting/direction and not a sign of what's to come.
pachi pachi
>>269222712>I honestly have no fucking clue what is going onThe story, direction and pacing are not this show's strong suit.
>>269222764I didn't have any issues with the first ep. I'm used to fantasy, especially high fantasy, having lots of made up stuff in it that is eventually explained. I took the first episode in stride, paid attention to the weird terminology to piece together the logic of the setting trusting it'd get laid out later in a more comprehensible way. Except episode 2 didn't do this, it just added even more terms and weird concepts to keep track of, and moreover, they started compounding: weird stuff happening in response to unexplained concepts and mechanics, following some line of causality that we have no way to grasp intuitively. And now in episode 3 it's reaching the point where a lot of what's happening on screen is basically just nonsense because we have almost no point of reference. I feel like this show needs a glossary or supplementary material of some kind I mine didn't come in the mail.
belle's adoptive parents must be a rarity in this world, with how nice they are they didn't hate her for being featureless and raised belle as their own kid
>>269222712Going for the Wonderland insanity vibes.
This anime looks gre->>269219296>moidNvm it's gonna be shit
>>269222974Actually yeah, it does almost have the Alice in Wonderland feel of everything following a totally insane line of reasoning that everyone thinks is normal. And this show wears its Wonderland influence on its sleeve with tons of obvious references, so maybe I just need to relax and not question it?
The sword is huge.
>>269222712>I honestly have no fucking clue what is going onyes and that's kino
>>269222712This entire show is very easy to understand.
>all those city walls>bad guys just walk in and steal some people
>>269223628Explain this scene then. Explain anything to do with the rabbit in this episode, in fact.
>>269223652I get the feeling this was written by a woman. They don't think about the logistics of stuff like that, it's more important that something dramatic happen.
>>269223672This is 100% written by a woman.I don't need to look this up. You get a feeling for that.
>>269223791Nah, I failed.It's a guy. Tow Ubukata.
>>269223654"mental" math means manipulating their mindshe's the most obvious Alice in Wonderland reference
>>269223654What was the point of the rabbit in Alice in Wonderland? What was the point of the smoking caterpillar? It's just a character in the show who wants to help Belle, anon.
>>269223824>he made Le Chevalier D'EonSo he basically writes like a woman.
>>269223387Not as big as this one
>short hair >flat>massive swordwho is this design meant to appeal to?
>>269223851>>What was the point of the rabbit in Alice in Wonderland?He was a courtier to the Queen of Hearts. >What was the point of the smoking caterpillar?A guide to Alice.You haven't explained anything about what we saw, or why it was necessary for the story. There's coherent bits of world building in this story, but then there are scenes that just make absolutely no sense due to the lack of context. The rabbit turning into a pretty boy by eating some rocks, then teleporting around rambling about mental math, is just nonsense. The opening scene of the show is also confusing about when/where it takes place. Sian seems to randomly teleport into different places, or rather I'm not even sure he was in a "place" at all in the opening scene.
>>269219220This show is boring as fuck
>>269223928Kill la Kill in Alice in Wonderland
>>269220050She's gonna get rust on her sword if she keeps getting sleepy pussy stains on her sword like that.
>>269223928They scanned my mind and this is what we got.Sorry.
>>269223824I was surprised that it was him.Usually all he does is between offensively and mind numbingly generic.Maybe it's a collection of his unused ideas given that he usually does sci fi.
>>269223928me
defend this.
>>269219220i ended up dropping it after this episode, it was kinda interesting but it’s too confusing and the design is kinda ehh
>>269224035She's doing a pretty good job of that herself
>>269223928>tomboy in cute dressTo me specifically.
>people are actually confused by this showgod damn i never knew /a/ was this fucking retarded.
>>269224035would you prefer this?
>>269224022the novel is pretty old, remember>originally published in 2000
I don't know, I feel like the plot doesn't make sense. It feels like life is very cheap, and as a human being, it's just weird. The main character also frowns the whole episode, there's no significant character development. I only know she's attached to her master, but that also feels shallow.
>>269224106I invite you to answer my questions: >>269223654So far nobody can. They can only gesture vaguely at Alice in Wonderland as if that explains ANY of the nonsense on screen. I think that you, like them, have simply assumed a posture of mental impotence and have given up trying to engage with the story and so no longer recognize 90% of its nonsense.
>>269224161Her suddenly having a loving and caring adoptive family came completely out of left field. She's not nearly as alone as she seemed. She had a supportive family the whole time.
>>269224217fucking speedwatcher
>>269224167Anon. It's Episode 3. I'm sure we'll learn more about the rabbit later.We literally only learned he could talk 10 minutes ago you fucking GenZ ADHD Zoomer.
>>269224260So you admit you can't explain anything in this episode then? Just another pseud pretending to understand the show, then.
Still proceeded to tell her anyway
>>269223652Wait until you learn what happened to Constantinople on 29 May 1453
>>269223672>I get the feeling this was written by a womanYou have never been able to correctly guess the gender of an author in your life. Impressive.
>>269224429They do have Venetians in this world too?
>>269224106I'm surprised it filters so many anons. just goes to show the type of people that come here. It's truly over for this board
>>269221419This was really cute. Not what had me conditioned to think that the couple raising the freak daughter would have been quick to move on, but they did care about her
>269224294acting like a pretentious twat isn't gonna make anyone like you, nor will they give you an honest response
>>269221010What’s your point
>"discussion" thread >only filled with tomboy and bunny shota lustposting
>>269224605welcome to /a/ circa 2024
>>269219623Nice thighs
nyo...
>>269224035too boyish
>>269224871Is this fish fresh?
>>269224894>>Is this fish fresh?voiced by miyuki sawashiro, so no, she's a turbo hag
>>269221158>panserviceYou mean service for everyone?
>>269225019Panservice means showing freshly baked bread or a character named Pan.
I have no idea what everyone is talking about, but there's a cute girl with a big sword, truly the dark souls of anime.
>>269220633buck broken
>>269225152We already had that.
>>269225221sword broken
>>269225019It means fanservice in the form of panchira.
>>269225019https://desuarchive.org/a/search/text/panservice/look at this fucking psycho
>>269224154>2000The LN is older than most Zoomers watching it?
>>269220580I mean that's precisely the problem with the world building being so vague. Is her statement meant to be literal or is she just too silly to beat him with a blunt weapon?
Flat. Wife.
>>269224294>accusing others of being brainlets>is a speedwatcher himselfhow quaint
>>269220633Why do these freaks masturbate to their swords so much?
>>269226048nyes
>>269223654What is there to explain? Guys stole the rabbit's watch, he cast some magic to make them think and feel like they're being burned alive, and then he took back his watch.
>pre-2000's anime>retards born after y2k can't understand itSad.
>>269221446sword? more like club
>>269220426Walked her home gently.
>>269221091>>269221116Just parry the morality of setting someone on fire.
This anime really is a wild interpretation of Made in Abyss
>>269222712It makes sense if you are not a mutt and are familiar with latin and history. You should have picked up both from anime by now.
>>269219220>femoid protagkek, into the trash it goes
>>269227771(you)
>>269223652How did you miss the very on the nose explanation that everything is basically a play in the city? It's a weird themepark.
I'd say this anime has the most complicated plot and characters, but Narehare does.

>>269221091>party_hard,gif
Same kind of retardation as in S&W threads, where people do not get economics that are literally explained by characters themselves.If you want something hard, go watch Fairy Gone, it drops a map on you just once, and expects you to remember fictional history and geography, because it WILL be referenced and used later.

>>269228770>absolutely unexpected drop of Fairy GoneI appreciate it.
I makes me happy to know that I'm the only one enjoying Belle's show!
>>269229976(You) and (Me)
>>269222712This isn't arknights where they don't explain what the fuck is happening half the time. They event plaster what new term they use on the corner, vividly.
>>269231093>They event plaster what new term they use on the corner, vividly.That's kanji for japanese people, so that they know what the term means.
>>269224035are those waist windows really necessary?
>>269231967She's so hot, cooling is required.
>>269219220Is Cat Boy or Rabbit Boy endgame for Belle? I vote Rabbit Boy because he's actually doing things with Belle. Cat Boy has done literally nothing with her.
>>269221419>bellemotoI understand the intention but it felt like lazy writing
>>269224035>154 cm girl>165 cm swordExplain.
>>269232595it's moe
>>269221419Why was she jealous of this? Just because you get a little sister doesn't mean your parents are disowning you.
>>269233158She wasn't jealous. She was proud.
>>269233158>Just because you get a little sister doesn't mean your parents are disowning you.i mean she probably thought exactly that - "they have their own REAL daughter now, what would they want with me now" but her adoptive parents are too kind for that sort of behaviour
>I'm so fucked up
>>269234400I want those hands on my sword.
>>269234462Your tiny knife.
Am I gay for liking the twink rabbit?
>>269236125no but you're the intended audience of this shoujo fantasy.
>>269236125>Am I gay for liking the twink rabbit?depends, are you a man?
>>269236125what's his endgame?
>>269221091It's just a little mental math.
>>269219220No seriously, what stop this bitch from just crafting some cat ears.
>>269237971probably wouldn't pass even with those, because the cat people are furry all over too, like cats
>>269237971>the entirery of society makes no sense to you on any level>bruhhh just alter your appearance a bit
>>269238017There's lots of people that are just humans with funny ears... >>269224871 Belle just needs a better wardrobe if anything.
I think this one is not for me, now if you told me Belle is still growing up and by S2 she will have some nice magumbos I'll consider it better.
>>269238375nah, she looks way too old to still be growing
