I want to watch dolls again...
Mantis coins...
I never did watch s4 or the final movie and now that I can't watch it with anons as it's coming out I have very little motivation toAm I missing out
>>285236355All the coins... are gone...
>>285236239I...still never watched puppets...
>>285236408I can't believe undead Mantis became a thing only for him to job, even before undead Scorpion
>>285236239He won
>>285236395Every TBF entry is worth a watch at worst.
>>285236395I'd say it watch it for completion's sake, unfortunately S4 and the final movie were rushed due to being cut down from two planned 13-episode seasons down to a 12-episode season and a 90 minute movie, but they still manage to hit the key points despite that. A damn shame about the demons though, all the new demon characters introduced in S4 including the Demon King really suffered from the cut and probably lost at least half a season worth of screen time.
>>285236986why was it rushed?
>>285236986Ansártë my beloved
>>285237140this gal wants to fuck spiders
Pick your suit, /a/
>>285236239I had to stop watching due to some personal reasons around when season 3 started airing and just went back and binged everything about two weeks ago, it really is a great series.However, and I'm sorry to say it, the quality takes a massive drop after S3. The nameless guards and cultists that put their differences and conflicts aside and united under Ban Gunha after saying like four lines of dialogue might unironically have gotten more characterisation than a lot of the demon noble jobbers. Time-travelling baby Sho and human form Ryo Ga make no sense and add nothing. I don't know if even a single newly introduced character is anywhere nearly as memorable as characters from previous seasons. We learnt almost nothing about the big antagonists, the demon lord and locust guy and Azibelpher, who had a lot of potential, got a pretty unsatisfying end. There's more things that bothered me, but this is what I can remember nowIt makes me really sad when a great series gets fucked by budgets so hard, all the characters of the demon world could have made this the best part of the series. The fact that I didn't have the chance to watch this with /a/ and get some more enjoyment out of discussing the unfolding story, might also make me view the situation a bit differently from the rest of you though, the threads must have been great.
>>285237464Clubs for BAN GUNHA and Scorpion
>>285237091Likely budget reasons, I think one of the interviews with Urobuchi mentioned it was due to "the situation overseas" or something along those lines when it was originally established back around late 2020/early 2021 that 5 full seasons was the plan.
>>285237091Budget & covid
>>285237840>We learnt almost nothing about the big antagonists, the demon lord and locust guy and Azibelpher, who had a lot of potential, got a pretty unsatisfying end.To be fair, we didn't learn too much about 10guy, Monk, or Shou Kun Rin much either. All we know about 10guy was that he might have been a guard and discipline of the previous owner of the Seven Sins Tower before he created the Black Demon Sect, Monk became a Buddhist monk to seek purpose and meaning in life, and Shou Kun Rin was a powerful demon sorceress who either had connections with powerful nobles or was a minor one herself. What really helped them though was their character interactions and screentime though, I think Azibelpher had a bit of that, but his end was kinda unsatisfying although it did tie into his whole deal about resolving to not use time magic to cheat at life anymore due to it leading to his current boring meaningless existence. Azibelpher should have used more magic in that last fight. Locust and Maou definitely suffered though, they needed more character interactions outside of giving orders to their underlings, but Locust's end was satisfying for me.
>>285237840Agreed. There was definitely a dip in quality past S3. Every villain, and every demon die like rats after only a minute or two of screentime. In a way nothing seemed to pose a challenge to the main characters and the results became very predictable. Characters even seemed to break established trends, such as duck killing multiple people, despite him having a no-killing policy before as he doesn't believe in actually removing evil. It seemed done just to advance the ending.
>>285240045>Characters even seemed to break established trends, such as duck killing multiple people, despite him having a no-killing policy before as he doesn't believe in actually removing evil.Duck prefers not killing, but he's not above doing it, he kills an outlaw that attacks him in the Kguy sidestory novel because he was left with no choice (said outlaw was actually a master martial artist whose special technique was basically undodgeable at that range). In the same sidestory when Kguy asks him if he's squeamish about murder, he claims it's only a preference that he avoids killing if possible. Although the sidestory wasn't written by Urobuchi, he expressed that he did want to adapt it plus it's referenced in S3 with the whole Kguy flesh doll thing and the first encounter between Duck and Kguy, and Urobuchi decided to have Duck killing with his own hands so it's likely his canon stance (Duck's preference, but not a code he'll die by).

Just one more thing magistrate, does the name "Enigmatic Gale" mean anything to you?
>>285240555>enigmatic galeAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA>enigmatic digitsAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>285237464gonna be hearts for me
How popular did Thunderbolt Fantasy end up being?I'd love if it started a trend of more mature dramas with flawed MCs and multiple POV characters. It reminds me of an HBO show and it's hard to find anything like it in anime.Maybe JP dramas could scratch that itch but all the ones I find seem to just be for chicks.
>>285237840>didn't have the chance to watch this with /a/ and get some more enjoyment out of discussing the unfolding storyI've got to say, somewhere in S2, threads got too fast for me to keep up with everything, and then my motivation started to run thin during S4. I did a bit of New Years cleaning in my browser and found all these saved threads from episode days and when the movie came out, and I just never got around to reading them. I'd make a post or two on whatever was up when I got there, and that was it for me. I wondered if that made the finale more hollow to me, but when I think about it now, it might just be that the show itself wasn't inspiring much from me.I really wanted Azibelpher to have one more monologue for the road, to really explore why he fought the way he did. I know he said plenty before but that fight was like unseasoned chicken. Put some more angst into it, squeeze that character's circumstances for a few more drops. Maybe it's my bias showing but I feel like earlier seasons would have made that sequence richer, even if it meant extra talking heads. The movie couldn't dwell on talk long enough and had to focus on just tidying up each remaining conflict and antagonist in the plot. At least the candles were neat.
>>285241789Outside 4chan? Not very from what I've seen. Nips and chinks seem to like it quite a bit but not enough to get us 5 full seasons.
>>285241833It really fizzles towards the end. Duck disguising himself to trick Kasei Meiko went nowhere and Azi-chan's time travel doesn't get addressed at all. Was everything going like his future self planned up until he died? I was really expecting the last movie to be more time travel focused to foil his grand schemes.
>>285241933>Nips and chinks seem to like it quite a bit but not enough to get us a proper finaleWishful thinking, I know, but maybe it'll leave behind some kind of legacy even if it's not eva tier.
>>285241789I do wonder how popular it would have been had it been a regular anime.
>>285242230Probably not a lot, or as much as other Urobuchi's originalsHalf the appeal of TBF *is* the puppet choregraphy, even the way conversations are directed contributes a lot to the flow of the story
Are any of the puppets still up for sale
>>285242016Bard being born was outside of the scope of whatever timeline his previous self was working with
>>285236239>>285236634Was this guy's whole routine that he tricked people into enacting brilliant plans by having the plans sound retarded while portraying himself as gay? But why?
>>285242230None of my weeb friends wanted to watch it specifically because of the puppets, so it'd have at least 4 more viewers.
>>285242518They were all limited runs so I don't think so but I see that they still have the sword USBs, might see if I can grab one.
Finished S2Urobutcher has fallen, he can't write tragedy for shits
>>285242819The puppets are a big filter, samething happened to some of my friends whom I recommended the show to
>>285243193
>>285243426I showed it to my gf and she said it was the worst thing she had never seen and to never show her anything like it again
>>285243613You didn't show her Duck breasts?
>>285243533My favorite and only girls in the shows keep getting badly cucked
>>285237840Azibelpher had the potential to be another great like Duck and Ban Gunha but alas they couldn't continue the series and had to wrap things up.
>>285237464Why are these only sold on a seedy site >>>games-glorious.com/ that sounds more like a place you'd download cracked games from?
>>285237840>The nameless guards and cultists that put their differences and conflicts aside and united under Ban Gunha after saying like four lines of dialogue might unironically have gotten more characterisation than a lot of the demon noble jobbers.The demon nobles should've gotten at least some decent fights at the very least, even with the cut, only Karei and Fujirai got decent showings while the others all jobbed hard.>Time-travelling baby Sho and human form Ryo Ga make no sense and add nothing.Yeah, this plot point was dumb, I know Urobuchi tried to explain all three of the main character's origins but leaving Shou as a human who traveled around a lot and picked up a bunch of skills from his adventures would've been fine.
>>285237140I just noticed the eyes on his "mask," that wooden mask is actually part of his face...?

I wish they'd have used the swords more towards the end. One of the coolest scenes is Ban Gunha pulling the swords out of the scroll.
>>285250990Yeah, only like 5 or 6 divine swords from the Index were ever used on screen, and 3 of those was from that Seal Guardian fortress in Touri.
>>285251998It's lame! I want to see more cool swords!
>>285242819All my weeb friends watched it because of puppets. I think people needs to like some avant garde/wierd shit to sell them on this.
>>285248192L-life for the duck boy...
>>285248853What's wrong with it?
>>285253243starting to sound like a villain with all that sword loving talk....
>>285253243Same, it's even worse in S4 where the two divine weapons given to Wasp and Spider are weaker rehashed versions of the Touri holy relics Gunha used (one of them being a lightning enhanced weapon and the other being super sharp).
I'm so glad I don't have a duck problem in my house.
>>285259558Onore...
>>285259558Tell me about Gale. Why did he put on the bag?
I'm hoping for some content this summer which should be TBF's 10th anniversary, even something like an art book with Urobuchi's notes on how the pre-cut full S4 + S5 was supposed to play out. Those have to exist somewhere since he had a plan for the 5 seasons back in 2021.
>>285260324
>>285254045
>>285260633Maybe he'll pen a novel version that expands on everything. Then we can sit and wait for people to comment and draw fanart of the stuff we can't read.
Is the puppet studio making something else now that this ended?
>>285236239>>285236634Funny part is that this Emperor can easily be imagined as a smart one who only pretend to be stupid.The Dong-li empire was in a much better state than the other side.He found a good excuse to hold his "military parade that please the noble" while also putting it into position to fight demon.And while it was rushed, he'd bound to basically take over Xi-you judiciary by becoming the law, getting himself a powerful (and desperate) helper, and the second he marries a local girl he'll be reuniting the nation.
>>285236474See pic
>>285261553Yeah, just another season of they long-running PILI series as usualhttps://www.youtube.com/@epilinet/videosIn 2019 they tried to expand (I think) by releasing War of Dragons season on Netflix with English subtitles, also their movie Demigod: The Legend Begins was screened on some western movie festival. But I guess they have given up on that
Was there ever a release of the final movie with updated names?Every single one I tried last year was the CN ones and after 4 seasons I was too lazy to spend the whole movie trying to figure out who the fuck Shang Lou Jun Ling Dan Qi Po Huo Min Feng Huag Yu Chuan Fei is from context clues.
>>285261976Are you deaf?
>>285261976Yes, the .ass file was posted on the threads. If nobody posts it I can post it tomorrow. Too eepy rn...
>>285262020Thanks, that got me on the right track. I assumed there would be a combined release if they existed so I hadn't gone through the archives.https://files.catbox.moe/kdgrmx.ass
>>285261888THE LAND IS CLOAKED IN DEEPEST BLUETHE SHADOW OF EAGLES ACROSS THE MOONITAMI YA KIZUATO WAKAKO NI SUTETEEEEEEEEEEE
>>285261610Could he secretly be the best marriage material in the entire canon? Ignoring the part where he's probably fucking handsome martial artists on the side.
>>285261468It's definitely possible, I think they released two novels retelling S1 recently, no idea why they would do that when there could be so much sidestory they could explore like 10mei's past, Gunha's adventures with a younger Shou, Locust's past, etc.https://x.com/TBF_PR/status/1829417910965567582
>>285261610>The Dong-li empire was in a much better state than the other side.Is it though? 10guy's sect, SPK, and Monk ran rampant and unchecked by the government forces, and Duck's activities in the Sword Art Assembly led to a bunch of martial artists from various Touri schools and some law enforcement getting killed off. It seems like Seiyuu has a much better army despite the internal sabotage by Locust and Chou Fuu, considering they had hundreds of men assigned to hunting down Shou yet was still holding the borders and dealing with the rebel Divine Swarm.
>>285243193It almost pays off in season 3 but yeah, not enough and most arcs on S2 sucked
>>285245159>Wait, that mask...>Old man has no mask>within 3 episodesI'm sure they cut a scene or two there
>>285248745Who was stronger, him or Sho?
>>285266549Probably Duck, Urobuchi intended for Duck to be a cheat character who has mastery over every possible skill so even if Shou is somehow a near equal to Duck in the martial arts, Duck could outmanuever Shou with magic or trickery.
>>285266610I meant in straight up fight. I don't think he would use trickery against Shou.
>>285266639>I don't think he would use trickery against Shou.Why wouldn't he? Every fight he's been in has involved trickery, even his Lunar Crater Vapor is literally tricking the enemy with an esoteric and unorthodox technique most martial artists can't see through.
>>285266707Tricky moves are part of fighting, like feinting. I feel if he ever felt like fighting Shou, he would use tricks to either teach him a lesson or if Duck was fighting for his life like on the context of your pic. If shou came looking for a fight Duck would do nothing but tricks just to piss Shou off unless he had Mie personality (fightfag). So yeah, in every normal scenario you would be right, I'm going off an hyphothetical one>Why care about that anon?Don't know, just trying to make up conversation I guess
>>285258179And that said weapons managed to kill two of the higher demon counts, it was a sneak attack but still.
>>285261290>Ken never learned meteor walk
>>285266530Wasn't the mask Ken's thing though? He only trained him for a short time, while Ryouga was the one who raised him and made himself look like a normal old man.
>>285267338isn't meteor walk technically heretical magic? I can see why he wouldn't want to learn it after S1. Though I can't recall if he ever learned the ley-line teleportation thing that 10mei does either.
>>285267413No, meteor walking is just advanced qinggong aka lightness skill, it's not magic or heretical. Bard does it at least once in S2.>流星歩[りゅうせいほ]>軽功術の絶技であり、ごく短時間だけ肉体を氣功エネルギーに変換して瞬時に移動を行う。充分な調息が必要なうえ、地脈の性質にも大きな影響を受けるため、条件の整った局面でなければ活用は難しい。>Ryūseiho>It is a superb light arts technique (Qinggong), and for a very short period of time, it converts the body into Qigong energy and instantly moves. In addition to requiring sufficient breathing, it is also greatly affected by the nature of the veins, so it is difficult to use unless the conditions are in place.
>>285261754>War of DragonsDoom of Dragons subbed never...
>>285268996Never EVER ever
>>285262708WHOAOHOHOHOHOHO
>>285267056Even if Duck chose not to use any tricks against Shou, I still think Duck wins because Duck's whole thing is that he is overpowered as a cheat character; Duck never sweats in any encounter he has, while Shou has been put into multiple situations where he's on the backfoot (usually involving magic or underhanded tactics). There's also the fight against those random three demon brothers in S3, Shou was actually getting outmanuevered by one of them in a straight fight until Bard disoriented them. Duck on the other hand, equally matched the literal king of demonkind on his home turf during their duel.
when i look back at tbf...i gotta say it was kinda mid. threads were fun though
>>285251998There should've been a divine spear in it
>>285271690Really? I think S1-3 was pretty good for a fantasy series, S1 is probably one of my most favorite fantasy series and I've read/seen quite a bit of fantasy (as a fa/tg/uy). S4 and the movie were kinda mediocre, but that's likely to due with the circumstances of the cut.
>>285271714Yeah... I was kinda hoping Ken would get to wield a spear or spear-like divine weapon. The divine weapon axe from S4 kinda gave me some hope, but nope, it's almost all fucking swords.
This must be so funny if you've watched the new Pili seasons.
>>285268996It is subbed. But in Chinese
>>285272557Is there any place to download War of Dragons? I dont mind the Chinese subs
>>285272557Seconding the other anon, I've only seen the one ep they posted for free on youtube.
>>285273153(me)I meant Doom of Dragons of course, already seen War.
>>285273130shit I meant Doom of Dragons too
I am in puppet withdrawal... I hope they make another accesible puppet show soon
>>285270287
>>285267413>>285267517Meteor walk is fucking stupid. They do it a few times in the first two seasons and then never again. Reminds me of the Jedi superspeed ability from Episode 1, only for it to be never seen again
>>285273437they simply meteor walk too fast for you to see it
>>285273437Duck meteor walks in the movie when he's disguised as Kyuchilian to get to the demon castle...
>>285236239Just watch their other doll shows.
>>285273130>>285273153I have Doom of Dragons I and II with Chinese hardsubs. Didn't know anyone was interested but if that's the case I can put it on nyaa when I figure out how to do it
>>285274032Its not that hard to rip the hardsubs with some OCR and then MTL it. Rough but still watchable if you have some context.

>>285281391>>285265944Forgot to mention Xi-you even worked WITH demons, encouraging them to roam free and take control of the human world once again.Meanwhile Dong-li lone remaining demoness stayed hidden in her forest, mostly harmless, afraid of the holy sword under Goinshi control.
BTW related to this: They're releasing the Pili spin-off movie soon in English(See third from the bottom):https://x.com/DeafCrocodile/status/2002068438756331723https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legend_of_the_Sacred_Stone

>>285281586Nice but it's already on Nyaa with subs translated from Japanese
>>285278875I just like how that show is full of subtle double entendre that become funny on a second thought or a rewatchLike my pic: the talking sword is wondering what would be the best bait for ...the sword plundering nemesis, she's LITERALLY the best bait and her own god damn magic is about driving people mad trying to ger her on sightI was laughing so hard, I had to pause the video.Even more when you get Kguy boasting about demon's being so much better at plotting when she basically already fell into Duck's ploy. Her only saving grace is that technically Duck is at minimum part demon.
I'm giving a sword index to anyone who tell me where I can find that video in full, ideally with subtitle.

Kguy and Ren Jo Shi have a larger body-count than Shou Kun Rin who probably butchered a few hundred people at most; to keep her youth potion going, Ren Jo Shi has to deliver Kguy a fresh baby's or child's internal organs every two weeks which means they butchered at least 24 kids a year to keep her youth potions flowing, In exchange for these youth potions, Kguy demanded handsome men from Ren Jo Shi's harem to build her flesh golem and Ren Jo Shi sent these men when she grew tired of them, and she states herself that she's probably ran through two thousand men. There's also another demon who appears in the Tan Hi manga, so it seems like Touri has a bigger demon problem than Seiyuu despite the internal sabotage by Locust.
>>285292656https://setsunastranslation.wordpress.com/2021/05/09/thunderbolt-fantasy-sword-seekers-side-story-episode-of-xing-hai-chapter-4-part-1/>If she, as a human being, wanted to attain immortality, she had to leave the secular word, eat mist, and practice asceticism for a long time. But for her, to quit being the greatest woman of loose morals would be an impossible task. There was no choice but to do it with heretical, evil arts. Kidnapping young children, gouge out their livers and decoct them to make elixirs. That way the young child’s youthful spirit would be transferred to the one who takes it, and the ageing process is slowed down. It was a secret art of necromancy that only demons could know. However, this elixir must be taken once every half a month to have a lasting effect. In other words, a fresh liver of a child had to be provided every half a month. When Xíng Hài asked Luán Niángzĭ if she could do that, she easily answered that she could. Some of the men who worshipped her had originally made their living as bandits. It would be easy to use them to kidnap children.>The thing that Hóu Zhuă said he had gotten was a child which had been kidnapped from somewhere, tied up and put in a large box. The box containing the child was brought to a part of the mountain, from where it was picked up by one of Xíng Hài’s undead servants and carried to her house. In other words, the role of Hóu Zhuă was to obtain the liver of children which will then be used as an ingredient for the elixir. For the last few years, he had been obediently completing this dirty work, without fail and without anyone knowing who he is.Yeah, Kguy deserved to get bisected.
>>285273437They literally meteor walk in every season, the demon brothers Shou and Bard run into meteor walk in both S3 + S4, and I assume Duck's meteor walking when he teleports around.
Anyone wished that the series had more puppet sex?
>>285292997Urobuchi tried, he wanted to adapt Kguy's sidestory (among other sidestories as movies) which had a lot of sex, but a combination of the sexual content (necrophilia, rape, etc) and lack of funding shot it down. I think I recall in one S3 interview, Urobuchi mentioned the Taiwanese team going to Japan and looking at nude dolls to film scenes involving nudity like when Kguy stripped down, but I think they just went with CGI or something.
>>285267310It killed two demon nobles + a demon demigod Kguy, that thing did a lot of work for a low/mid tier Shinkai Makai. These things were used against demon gods and actually beat some of said gods back so I guess it's not surprising.

>>285270672>Shou has been put into multiple situations where he's on the backfootIn fairness to Shou, he admits himself that he's fighting with a stick rather than something much better like one of the Index blades because it is more difficult and he feels taking a life should be difficult.
>>285241933Unless its slop garbage that gets pumped out like power fantasies and shonenshit all the inbreds from NA and EU will continue to ignore it it. Even Urobuchi's name wasn't enough to get enough attention
>>285296245He says "way harder". He's doing what amounts to fighting with both hands behind his back while hopping on one foot.
>>285296219I mean she literally gloats about fucking around 2000 men... so yeah
>>285298124She's so fucking hot
>>285300771t. Every man in Touri except Duck
Why are Tourifags such sluts?
>>285293057Didn't they actually buy a sex doll to film that scene of Kguy changing? Or did anon lie to me?

>>285292656And Locust IS the emperor, so that's the same thing as Xi-you working with demons.>which forced Shou Kun Rin to hide as a human and even she was cut down by them once they discovered her true nature.....after she had already corrupted their nobility down to their bones for generations (leading to Locust) and kept it up even after her death until she was plundered away.You can thank Dong-li's Monk for taking her away on a honeymoon.Speaking of Monk-kun, until S3 he had been a strange but good fellows, healing anyone who could give him an answer. Then that sword skank from Xi-you appeared and corrupted him.>You haven't read Kguy's sidestory have you?I did but you seem to have forgotten how it ended: Kguy almost got killed by a random warrior, and got Ducked so hard she stopped interacting with the world for a long time, while her friend just died....and that was still small time villainy compared to the institutional abuse of power and made-up battles against the divine swarm that was happening in Xi-you.Between the psycho-princess, sinking entire regions to stop insurrection, demon-child singing in bar and corrupt magistrates who will stop at no low, what is a mere bandit problem? At least Dong-li lawmen weren't working with them (they are ashamed of not being able to stand up to literally a part of the demon-king, strongest of all demons) and it proves Dong-li was prosperous. Sure they had that demon god sleeping there but it shows they were able to deprive the demon army of one.>mangaIf we get to involve non-cannon franchise-milking shit we are on our way to fanfiction.>Yeah, Kguy deserved to get bisected.Sure did, but she was little compared to her sister.
>>285294347>mfw she win the day
>>285299449>total puppet hate
It's Shouover
>Still haven't watched the movie because IRL reasons and because I got spoiled back thenSo what have Butcher and Pili been up to lately?>>285282124I think this was a new year celebration video. Can't find it on YT, probably got removed.Here's another WebM from it. I remember making some of them back then, including that WebM, so if it really is gone then that's a shame.
I hate that this character didn't do much
>>285282124>>285305063Found it with my screencap filename (I have it saved in some drive). TBF part starts after 36 minutes.https://youtu.be/VttsRsH3fr0?si=YE26DJ1GUabG3Zxr&t=2172

>>285305271what heretical duck magic is this??
>>285305560 (Me)>mid-word spoiler tags failed
>>285305191Yeah, I got really excited since I really liked him since his small part in S3 and he just got killed by a fall, crazy waste of potential, though I guess that's all of TBF after S3.
