Arifureta Shokugyou de Sekai Saikyou: Maboroshi no Bouken to Kiseki no Kaigou

I finished season 2 a long time ago and I just watched it again yesterday, or rather September 12, 2023.
I just got this episode of the OVA and haven't seen it before or spoilers from anyone else because I'm so against it, When looking at the Opening or opening song there are different additions before, who are they? I'm a little curious about the contents!

And this was very surprising, it turned out they were people from the previous labyrinth, And who would have thought that Miledi's annoying character was actually beautiful! I thought he wasn't human because his previous arrival in the labyrinth was in ... the form of a robot, This really surprised me, especially since there is another cute character like Meiru It succeeds with its cute depiction of their arrival.

Maybe it's different from expectations in that the battle isn't too exciting or just ordinary, yes I understand it's called a special episode and is limited in time so it's used as briefly as possible.
I hope the third season will be even better, don't let it end badly like Isekai wa Smartphone which has been waiting for a long time but the storyline is just ordinary. I hope the third season doesn't focus too much on mazes because that would be very boring.

I don't know what else to say, yes, I'm just looking forward to the third season, I support you people who are concerned with making the third season of this anime.

First let me make it clear. this all is my personal opinion so you should make your own decision wether you like it or not. you should watch it for yourself. if you like it continue and if you don't just drop this episode.

To start This episode has nothing to do with the plot of season 1,2 and beyond.
The episode is a side story with funny interesting and action packed parts
We're finally introduced to some known characters that we only saw a glimps of in season 1 and 2 which makes them even more interesting.

*animation 9/10

It has amazing qualty the coloring of ... the attacks, the town and the surrounding. it looks good with the scenario they're in.
the way it is animated is fluent.
It's hard to describe this but when you watch it you'll know XD

*Soundtrack/audio 8/10

Some of the music was really captivating really belonging at that part of the episode.
It really fits in with the background the scenario, it fits even so good that i barely hear it since it gets mixed in perfectly with what was happening

*Plot 5/10

Since it's a special there isn't really a plot in it. you just get drawn into a new place get a little bit of info they try to do what needs to be done and the end
However we finally get to see the liberators alive and kicking.
It made me laugh quite alot and pretty hard though.

The only thing that i dislike the most about this episode is that it could've been better if they made it into a movie.
It had such great potential for it, but instead they made it a special. due to the time limit of it there wasn't much room for some other stuff like more info about who the liberators are, what they are like, how they got where they are or other small or big stuff.
we can only hope we get to see a spin-off about their journey after hajime's journey ends.
Besides that it was alot of fun to watch it

*overall 8/10
This could've been a 10/10 if it was a movie with more time in it.
But nontheless i really enjoyed it.
I recommend it but it's up to you to decide.

(P.S. this is my first review. hope it will help)

Unlike Dr. Stone: Ryuusui, a successful 50+ minutes special released earlier this year, this fails to drive attention to its sequel.

''The Shining Will of The Sea'' is one of "The Seven Great Legends of Elysen", which Hajime and his gang experience in this special. The entirety of this episode/s is a battle scene. I don't find this necessary to watch for the continuation of the story and it doesn't add up to the plot. Rather, it introduces new characters which may appear in future of Hajime's journey.

The quality is similar to the 2nd season of Arifureta, CGI dominating battle scenes and bright art. Don't ... have any complains with this aspect. The studios (asread. and MOTHER) are doing a good job with consistency in the quality. Referring to the 1st season (which does not exist :d), the fans are blessed with potential sequels.

The dialogues are mainly Hajime's harem quarreling among themselves, making it no different than a generic special episode. The conversation follows Myu treating Hajime as a father and monopolizing him with her mom. XD. I'm no fan of a harem dominating plot either, and this special contains fanservice (not in terms of visuals).

I don't really have much to say about this, but I suggest watching since it wouldn't consume a great deal of time.
