>>285708980none of that's gendered, that's just general emotional needs found in the vast majority of human beings that ever lived
>>285709061>none of that's genderedIn anime absolutely yes
I don't understand why this isn't doing better. The main character has been cool from his opening ENTER and the supporting cast is shaping up nicely, too. I know jack about the source material but the fringes of a larger conspiracy are starting to be revealed, we were let in on some more information about the goddesses and their abilities, and the magic system has been interesting so far.The animation looks good and the story is not isekai slop, although we learned in the last episode there is an otherworlder in the party if the rumors are to be believed. Would be cool to see what era of Japan he's from.
>>285709169If someone is isekaijin here that can be Tatsuya and/or TeorittaThe problem is that they don't have, or have a little memories from the past.
>>285708980wait a second i've seen this thread before
>>285709169Yeah, it's weird. It's just not really gripping me, and I thought I would be all over this.
>>285709661The former, Tatsuya is who I was referring to. I am hoping he gets a small flashback like V received this episode. He could be from any era of Japan, really.

>>285709932Perhaps the modern day screenwriters are too used to adapting manga utilizing the 3-4 chapters per episode pacing and they don't know how to handle adapting prose storytelling as well as they do sequential art? Which are basically storyboards already?
>>285709169>The main character has been cool from his opening ENTERYou have to be 18+ to post here
>>285710113No, that anon is right. He's a pretty cool character, even if I feel he's a bit of a dickhead.

>>285709169>I don't understand why this isn't doing betterWhat? It's doing great. It's the most popular non-sequel show this season. /a/ just likes to be contrarian, and the story starts a little slow-burn for the ADHD zoomers here. It's why they went so hard in the first episode, because the actually compelling stuff hits pretty late.
>>285712805>ADHD zoomersthose might be the real problemI genuinely like the show so far and I actually think that the first episode was a bit too flashy for me (but the UBW-like swords spam was still pretty great, not gonna like)
>>285712864Also doesn't help that most of the yuusha-kei threads are awful, either empty cunny bait (Teoritta is never lewded) or nonsensical like this one. The only decent threads are the watch threads, and those don't typically get follow-ups after they autosage. Shame there aren't more LN chads to chat the details.
Imagine the sex...
>>285710132Not the other anon but... No he is not "cool", in fact I dropped it because of him. If this series had a good protagonist I would have ignored the cringe setting for at least a few more episodes.
>>285712478Why is it that they don't have shadows if the light is on their side? Is this AI?
>>285714253they are vampires
>>285712805>It's the most popular non-sequel show this season.Is was the result of the extreme shilling that the show received everywhere before airing and the money poured in the production of the first episode. I don't think it will be nearly as successful as it looked like it would be. Just look at the reception of the other, more recent, work of the same author, that did not have same shilling: https://myanimelist.net/anime/61217/Yuusha_no_Kuzu
>>285714280No, if they have shadows bellow them, they should also shadows have to their side.
>>285714575they do in the other shotanimation errors happen and lighting is hard to do correctly in 2d
>>285714515It got that shilling and money because of how popular the LN already is. When the production committee was forming, probably around 2023, the series was the 3rd best selling LN in Japan. Not just in fantasy either, OVERALL. Yuusha no Kuzu is older too, written in 2016. If anything, the manga only got made because it was riding the coattails of YuushaKei's success. Whether you like it or not, the hype is earned. The fact that you can't sit still for half an hour to absorb the story as it comes and pick up the hints is a (You) problem.
wanted to ask in one of these threads but forgotDoesn't this lamp consume mana in blue flame mode?How could Xylo still use it if he couldn't spam explosive swords anymore?
>>285715897Because Luminescence is tied to what the Sacred Seal is engraved into, not the person wielding it. Xylo has several sacred seals engraved into his own body, and they use the Luminescence he's got in his own body to make those explosions. The lamp, along with every seal engraved into an object, has its own individual store of Luminescence based on the object, and because HEIKA NORGALLE is a Sacred Seal hyper-autist, he's able to make the seals highly efficient and powerful.
>>285716148how do they recharge seals engraved into objects?
>>285714081No I don't think I should
>>285716213Literally just leaving them out in the sunshine.
>>285716321does Xylo recharge his seals the same way?Why is he spending his free time in the jail then?
>>285716386Yes, but they don't take as much time to charge as you think. During daytime, smaller sacred seal devices are effectively of infinite use. Some weapons, such as lightning staffs or artillery pieces, require much more power and use special equipment to store luminescence and reload, but more efficient devices, such as the cook top in the last episode, end up charging faster than they discharge. Also, remember Xylo was on the road for some number of days without fighting, so he's definitely already charged up. His usual deficiencies come with how many knives he can carry rather than stored luminescence.
>>285716996Makes sense but kinda feels like cheating to have such a strong tech that works on solar energy. WW2 tanks can't compete with that.So Xylo has more sunshine mana than normal people just because he is black?
>>285717788Funny enough, he's just got a deep set tan. He was born in the North like Kivia. He just grew up in the south with his childhood fiancé, who is brown. I don't know what determines someone's innate luminescence though. It's not really that important to the plot as of right now.
>>285709169isekai fatigue
>>285714515Kuzu is a significantly worse show and source material tho
>>285718019Aki is significantly cuter and more useful than Teoritta
>>285712805Slow beginning to peacefully introduce the characters and the world>Boring, repetition of the same scheme, native isekai, reddit>They definitely save on combat animations>DroppedFast plot progress and fights from the beginning, characters and the world introduced in action>Another battle shonen without plot, OP MC, tiktok>ADHD slop for zoooomers>They definitely use up their entire animation budget to attract viewers
>>285717788>WW2 tanks can't compete with thatI would say that both have their advantages and disadvantages. For example, the limitation of purely magical projectiles became apparent when it turned out that the cockroach simply reflected them off and they had to attack physically.Also, don't compare a mass-produced tank with an elite unit on a kingdom scale (even if it is a penal unit).The fact that Xylo can effectively use seals on his body is due to his natural predisposition, training, and vast experience.The rest are also unique in their own way, useful, and able to work together (well, maybe except for one), but the thief is also an expert and acts as a supplier of super weapons.
>>285718732No. You're gonna see at the end of season once Rhyno shows up. Tanks ain't shit.
>>285709169Not enough half-naked waifus and romcom moments. Most of /a/ is living vicariously through anime, so they need the cute girls too. Hence why this anime is actually doing great outside of /a/
