Chiyu Mahou no Machigatta Tsukaikata Episode 4 Discussion

They are the yellow shirt guys!

I wonder what makes a hero, since this isnt a game like setting with fixed levels and skills, I guess heroes are supposed to grow faster? Because Rose seems pretty strong on top of beeing a healer, yet she isnt a hero. While honestly our MCs dont seem all to impressive, certainly not like a last minute trump card to summon just before the enemy attacks.

Even though the setting should be interesting, with multiple MCs who dont even run around as a group like they usually do, without OP MCs and apparently a focus on the support role without actually beeing super strong in a fight like these settings usually turn out, the show just fails to really catch me.

They could do so much with it, instead this is mostly running around. This is all stuff which could have been handled in 2 eps instead of 4, it feels like they stretch out the little content they have almost as if the source was a 4 panel manga. Even those manage to be more interesting.
Well with the healer finally going on an adventure with the heroine next eps, I hope things will get more interesting.

I know nobody likes to talk about scores but really, this show is so much worse than Moonlit Fantasy yet they have nearly the same rating.. I dont even hate generic isekai, I have watched quite a few lately but I have the feeling this "unfair scoring" is why many people hate isekai, it just promises more than it actually delivers..

@Comander-07 I think this one is better though. Tsukimichi has some pacing issues and while it handles it's tropes well it's still borderline generic.

@Tenzen12 pacing issues, compared to this show? I do agree that the last arc was a bit out of nowhere, but this show is just straight up boring. A training arc worth 5 minutes stretched out to 3 eps. The most enjoyable parts are actually the 3 MCs interacting but that barely happened past ep 1 as well. Its not like they spend the eps developing the characters either. Its way more generic really.

@Comander-07 You might no like training but that's honestly you thing not flaw of show. In first place training itself was 1 episode and then another was survival test, which was anything but uneventful. And saying they it didn't spend time on developing characters is flat out wrong.

As for tsukimichi this school arc will be huge slogfest and unfortunately it will not be last one. That story has really high peaks (on it's best it's undoubtly better than Chiyuu Mahou), but even lower valleys that are closer to torture than to entertainment.

@Tenzen12 No offense but showing someone LARPin as Forest Gump for 15 min per episode, for multiple episodes, is definitely a flaw of the show. Same with how stretched out that bear part was, why did he need to get back to spy on the bear family multiple times? Just so the episode was longer...
All characters are the same though, they had 0 developement. I mean yeah the MC arguably had a little, but thats why I said these 4 eps could be 2 instead.

Yeah true I dont even remember why they have this arc

Question for light novel readers does Rose and Usato become a couple? Or is it Usato and Suzune
