Good episode
Sex with Iris while Amaterasu watches
Haven't watched the new season yet, how's the pacing? Are they really going to finish everything?
>>286709299
>>286709313>how's the pacing?Terrible. They speedrun it.
>>286709313There's only final boss left.
>>286707417>>286707434>>286707514>>286707875At this point why they didn't draw them with a transparent robe? It would let them censor things and still keep alluring. The barbie doll effect is a disgrace.
>>286707078>18 more chapters leftThat means they only have to adapt 6 chapters in the remaining episodes, which isn't too bad
>>286707078I'm quite mad by the fact that up until now they adapted everything 1:1 even if the story was ok at best, and the moment you have to work on the final (best) arc you speedrun everything but the key moment for fuck's sake.
So uhm, how would doppel Tamaki be like?
>>286709941
>>286709802I wonder if the staff didn't know they would have so few episodes for the last stretch. Otherwise I don't understand why part 1 of this season had the same pacing as the first two. Would have made more sense to have both parts be slightly faster
>>286707417>>286707434>>286707514Literally the only reason I still download this garbage
This episode did 10-ish chapters. I say -ish cause there were a couple removals in the chapters themselves like how originally Takkun was supposed to run into Doppel Kurono before being saved by the real Kurono and starting the fight. And Farie was supposed to see Shinra stop the moon, THEN he and his whole squad killed themselves to summon the "Strongest Doppelgangers" instead of them just showing up as they have.They also cut a single chapter where Kurono was supposed to be jumped by Doppel Benimaru for a bit before the real Benimaru showed up to fight.But like, that's it. That's all the cut parts for this chunk. They've actually adapted it fairly well IMO. Tamaki's fight really was stupid long even in the manga. They all only had like 1-2 chapters per fight while she had like 6.Also the Amaterasu and Iris talk is anime original and actually a fantastic addition. Cause in the manga we really did just cut from her disappearing straight to her being dead when Shinra gets to Haumea. That'll probably still happen next episode, but that bit of extra closure between the two is nice.
So how was this episode, what did they skip?>>286710014Eh, I enjoyed psycho dude and Joker moments, but Benimaru was kind of a disappointment, I still liked the conclusion but my expectatives were way higher... I mean, I was expecting a conclusion on the exact same line but after a really epic fight.
>>286710219Amaterasu's grievance is 100% justified anyway.
>>286710219Also the Amaterasu and Iris talk is anime originalGood that's what I wanted.They can speedrun the rest of the manga if it allows more OC in the epilogue and soul eater prequel intro
>>286710287This pacing jump is exactly what was needed. There's now only 18 chapters left to adapt and 3 episodes to do it for an easy 6 chapter pace.At this rate, I think we may actually get almost a full episode for the epilogue stuff.
>>286710014That's how it was in the manga too.
>>286710378The epilogue skipped so much stuff and ignored so many characters I hope it gets expanded
>>286710432anime skipped beni stomping on kurono
>>286707078Reminder that they took this from you!
>>286710485who care coombrain
>>286710485They better show them together in the epilogue to make up for it.
>>286710378Is Obi getting killed next week or the week after?
At the very least this means we have more than enough room for the epilogue
>>286709941An actual, literal voyeuristic whore flashing her tits and ass at any chance
What's the scientific explanation on this raging erection I get whenever I see Haumea, not even Tamaki gets me this bad, I feel like my brain shuts down and start humping my desk...
>>286707514>Amaterasu = Ass>Iris = BoobsYour choice, anon?
>>286710684Tamaki is the sole reason people are watching this shounenslop.
>>286710994Yeah, it should be next week ep 23 - Haumea, ends with Earth succumbing to the flames or Mom appeareance, chapters 287-291/292ep 24 - shinrabanshouman, ends with Shinra understanding despair, chapters 293-298ep 25 - finale
I wonder if they will keep Rikiya Koyama as the narrator VA for further episodes. The Death VA narrating all the final battle and epilogue should be epic.
>>286709941Constantly nude, but clothing randomly comes out of nowhere and latches onto her body
>>286711624This but all of the cute girls. Including the ones that only get 1 second of screen time.
Duel of Fates playing at 17:30
>>286710014Kurono's fight was actually pretty cool, if short.
>>286710219>>286710287I loved that part, it's literally all I wanted for Amaterasu's role in the manga, so glad they gave her something of a conclusion before her manga ending comes. My crazy burning wife deserved some love at the end.
>>286707434Burns being randomly alive is so fucking funny
>>286711347Threesome with both, of course.
Wait so it's two episodes left? They are for sure cutting the whole epilogue or a big part of it.
>>286714756Three episodes left. It's a 13 episode season.
>people literally cannot even comprehend how strong Benimaru is and their image of him as "the strongest" is still far weaker than his actual strengthJust how fucking broken is he? This is like Jack Rackan levels of OP
>>286715752He's the embodiment of overwhelming strength. Had he put his mind to it he could have very likely solo'd the White Clads with only really Dragon being a tough fight but it also wasn't his story to do so.
>>286715752Built different.
>>286710015And this "garbage" is still more preferable than your utter garbage taste.
MAYDAY > Inferno > Ignis > Spark Again > Torch of Liberty > High FlameVeil > Speak of the Devil > ID > Nounai > Desire > Urusiren
so what would have happend with the cataclysm if fake waka just blew the planet up? No more despair no more cataclysm right? Although killing everyone kinda is the point of the cataclysm
>>286709313Folks seem to have a problem with the pacing but it’s hard to imagine some of these little fights spaced out somehow, I think that would be obnoxiously tedious.
>>286709355Her crazy faces make her hotter.
>>286709313The pacing is fast but the animation is way better than the first part of season 13, instead of being cheap it looks closer to the quality of season 2So far despite having to skip some stuff they've managed far better than I was expecting, the only skips that pissed me off was that they skipped the setup for Arthur's fight, specifically his whole Dragon Quest training arcBut otherwise a great season so far
>>286709313It's fast but not obscenely rushed. This isn't a situation like D. Gray-man Hallow, Tokyo Ghoul RE: or 7Seeds at all but still faster than it should have been due to not getting enough episodes. Honestly David is far better at pacing than I gave them credit for this reminds me of that mini-arc in JJBA Part 4 where they did 3 fights simultaneously to save time within the episode count.
>>286717233Agreed. That being said, these Doppleganger fights were short in the manga, Tamaki vs Assault was the only one which lasted for a while, so covering them all in a single episode was easy.
>>286707078Kurono vs his doppelganger was pretty dope, the way they depicted his smoke power was so cool.
>>286709978KEK
>>286715752>How strong is he?Stronger than you think.
Checked the thread for the episode on reddit.It's full of people asking if these fights were this fast in the manga or if the anime skipped a bunch of stuff.The crazy part is that it really didn't. We skipped one chapter of the fight between Doppel Beni and Kurono. The fights themselves legit just weren't long originally. Tamaki's episode was 6 chapters for the one fight. This was 4 fights and a setup for the end that all together is only 8 chapters.
>>286710485Good. Tamaki is for (me), not that one handed juggercuck
>>286715752He can probably disintegrate the entire world with a punch, he's probably Excalibur or Death levels of powerful.
>>286720549If they actually do the Soul Eater remake after this, I fully expect they'll have the Great Old One of Power be voiced by Benimaru.I always thought that was the intent there. The crew Death rolled with that embodied the different types of madness likely were meant to connect to characters from Fire Force in some way. Maybe they'll even change his design to have one X eye to make it extra obvious.
How many episodes until its over?
>>286721358Three left
>>286721358Three episodes to cover the last 18 chapters.
>>286707078Why is the MC one of the worst characters in this anime?
>>286721958Shinra steals the show at the end.
>>286721958It's his destiny as the embodiment of generic story protagonists. Everyone knows the best characters are never the MC
>>286710485That faggot doesn't deserve her. She should've been for Assault
>>286722514so goddamn good
Why didn't Kurono stand a chance against Beni?
>>286707078This guy, Benimaru Shingon, gets powercreep'd hard right?
>>286710485Good. Made to be sexually ASSAULTED.
>>286715752Meanwhile, people imagined Joker to be insanely strong. It's pretty funny.
Oh, I was going to watch the Dragon/Arthur fight.How was it?
>>286722939cinema
>>286709488Were they uncensored in the manga?
Amazing hips.
>>286720357Assault...
>>286717449Kurono is the best, he's a complete piece of shit, but I love he's appalled at the thought of people viewing him as a cliched psycho.
>>286722807It's his own fault for putting on the whole chuuni dark hero shtick.
>>286723420As some wise anon said once, it's what happens when you put a lot of focus on the "mystery" part but not enough in the "nigga" part.
Beni's doppelganger destruction was made physically with inchttps://x.com/zinkai/status/2032743436785500535/
>>286724360Wow, I thought they made it digitally.
Did they rush it because of Steel Ball Run?
>>286724539Combined with delaying it because of Undead Unluck? Tragic. It's just all a mess. Even Arthur vs Dragon didn't make me feel much. It's too late, too rushed, too hard to enjoy.
>>286720357>>286722611>>286722715Assault... just give up...
>>286724360Also ED>>286724539Don't think so, it's the production committee who decides how many episodes they want
>>286724822This faggot killing himself for nothing was hilarious.
>>286721958Shinra is a good character. He is proactive and not stupid.
>>286716762I won't make a ranking but the ones that impressed me the most were:>Inferno >High Flame >IGNIS >Veil>Speak of the Devil Tho others aren't bad besides Urusiren but those 5 I listen to even outside the anime itself
>>286716163Who wins, Benimaru, or Star Ring Arthur who's convinced Benimaru is a usurping tyrant
>>286715752he might be he doesn't come off that cool as his title could allow, if I'm being honest. he lacksinsanely kakkoii scenes and often minds his business, which is ok too. it's not like a Gojo stealing the scene from the rest of the cast
The series became shit when it introduced meta shit, it was so good before
>>286726483The meta shit is what turned it from unremarkable shonen to kino tho.
>>286726483It was always there and also kino.
Wait so being turned into an infernal just causes your doppelganger to show up, right?So do the masses just turn into demon zombies because they have basically no personality?
Arthur's Two Girlfriends
>>286724521 Yeah they actually went old-school with it. You can see the little inconsistencies in the debris and lighting if you squint, that’s usually a giveaway it’s practical. Kinda hilarious they’re burning actual materials in 2026 just so Twitter anons can go “meh rushed.” Honestly makes it worse knowing the staff cared enough to do that while the schedule was apparently on fire harder than the cast. Fire Force production being meta as usual.
>>286720864Benimaru has the same voice as Kid already so that probably wouldn't work
>>286728712I wonder if they'd use the same VAs for the main cast or get new ones.We already know that Death is almost certainly getting the same VA in Fire Force since they had him narrating Arthur's episode. And we'll get some lines from Excalibur to see if that's the same VA.
>>286728796They'll keep the same VAs. In Soul Eater Not they didn't recast them and in the brief cameo of Maka's dad and Blair in the Assault episode from the second season they kept their VAs from the SE anime.
>Shinra is the protagonist.>The manga tries to portray him as the “savior,” “hero,” and “chosen one.”>Almost the entire cast praises him. However, Shinra is a boring and unpopular character among readers and viewers. Instead, the MVPs and most beloved characters end up being Benimaru Shinmon and Arthur Boyle.
>>286728945Hopefully Maka will sound better this time.
>>286728967>However, Shinra is a boring and unpopular character among readers and viewers. Instead, the MVPs and most beloved characters end up being Benimaru Shinmon and Arthur Boyle.Meanwhile in reality
>>286726131>unstoppable force vs unmovable object of Arthur's autismThough Beni does win Arthur's resolve if fully tapped into Adolla might stone wall him for a while
>>286727087Thats a good explanation
People complain about tamaki's speech, but the kurono doppleganger fight is the real pointless fight that's there just to justify his character.
>>286728967>>286729111Absolutely obliterated. Heh. Get fucked tourist.
>>286727404Now that I think about it, they both are pure yamato nadeshiko right? Because in this setting you have a mix of whites(Arthur, Iris, etc) and blacks (Ogun, Charon, etc), on that note, what is Inca?
>>286726131Arthur would lose because he is wrong, but if the tyrant was real and actually needed to be stopped, Arthur would win
>>286729111TAMAKI SUPREMACY! I KNEEL
>>286729111Japanese with good taste???
>>286726131Arthur would need Benimaru to play along with his delusions first like Dragon did, but Benimaru wouldn't give a single shit, it would be a different kind of fight with Arthur trying to larp while Benimaru at most laugh at his bullshit.
>>286731170I liked it, it was a fun fight.
>>286731170Well, to expand on this a bit. Its not as if the fight was used to justify his character. Kurono's character was already justified on its own. This fight happened because doppelgangers are made of how people perceive you, rather than how you truly are.
>>286731197Tamaki can't be a yamato nadeshiko because she's flaunting her naked body to everyone.
>>286728945The only va I would want to change if they make a remake is black star, i've never got the whole lets voice a teen with a women. It always makes me take the character less serious.
