| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Did this show just go isekai? LOL. Those are definitely fantasy content you don't normally see in this anime though. I'm going to have to get used to it but given how crazy some episodes get, it doesn't feel too surprising. That new OP song though. But really, we have a fantasy world with elf girls and quite a different storytelling tone now. Trying to survive in a world of uncertainity is also not easy for Takuya.  |

| The show took an interesting twist. It's now an isekai lol. Anyways, we see Takuya in a new world and from the start an elf. RIP Ailia. I wonder when we will see Yu-no. I think the first we saw her was in the first few episodes when she kissed Takuya. Can't remember what episode. |
 |
| I can certainly see why YU-NO waited all the way until now to get its second OP and ED. That was... quite a change of scenery |
  |
| did Takuya just get isekai'd and finally gets a nice kiss more reason to lewd elf girls lol |
 |
| I really feels like it's a brand new season or even show eh, such a huge change ! Although, lmao Aila, she appears in the opening as the 3rd character (first being Takuya, then Sayless or Yuno, I ain't sure) and she's already 6-feet underground. I'd like to believe she'll ressurect somehow but I doubt. Anyway, things are getting pretty interesting. |
 |
| What a twist lol, I can't wait to buy the VN when it comes on PC |
| How can she Sayless? She doesn't say anything at all, you can't say less than nothing. I think the change of venue is just what this show needed to move it along. Heck, it may end up being the best Isekai this season now. It's odd to see a fairly well designed and developed character die within 10 minutes of introduction. The OP and ED seem to indicate that perhaps there is some sort of revolution going on in the Empire. After the whole anime trope of Takuya yelling the king's name but we can't hear it, and all the masked people in the OP and ED, I have a feeling we have seen them before. With the hair color of the king, I'm already speculating it's Mitsuki or Ayumi. The masked blonde girl could be Mio. We already know the red head is Amanda....which possibly could be Kanna's mother. In that case, either Sayless or the other blonde girl in the ED and OP could be Takuya's mother. Maybe when someone dies in Takuya's world, they get reincarnated in El Grado (sp?) I'm not exactly sure why she would be able to swallow the water better with him kissing her... |
| So the anime up until now was just...one big isekai prologue... .... |
Tokoya said: adapatations are not supposed to be carbon copies of source materials and until the anime community in general can accept that and judge an anime based on what it presents and how they handle every episode, these threads will continue to be filled with hate posts by purists |
| Now, it's a full on isekai and just like from the hentai version,Takuya gets to meet Sayless but in the hentai she's Sebes |
| Man, the rush was real, they skipped through a lot and went on fast-forward instead of slow build-up of their relation... but at the same time they actually managed to fit the impotant things in.. and I kinda liked this episode. Still, I worry a bit that by skipping the parts where the characters gave in to their emotions or had shown their support to each other and bonding can lessen the impact in the end. My guess is that the lot of things between this and the next episode would be skipped too, in favor of moving plot forward even faster. And I fear that without careful character building (like with Illia this time) whole YU-NO second arc can't really work well. Also, his motivation to go this world is different here (saving Kana) than in the game and while I kinda understand where they are going, they are completely shifting the story direction by doing that (probably even changing the very end), and that's not something I'm really fond of. Also, correct me if I'm wrong but I believe in the game Takuya used the reflector for his journey into this world (or it had lost all its energy) so why does he still have it here? And why did he even commented that he can't use it else he won't be able to go back to Kanna? Makes really no sense to me. |

But now he can't use it, cause he needs to get the stone for Kanna, and his last save point is back in his world. So if he uses it now, it will overwrite that one, as it seems that in this anime version, he can only have one save state at a time. |
| Signature: I prefer comedies, horror, hentai, and combinations of such. Anime with a lack of fan service is a disservice. |

I have the feeling we'll have anime original ending then, dunno if that's good or bad thing but ending impact will probably shifts a lot. |
| As someone who watched the whole gameplay I must say this was just serviceable and decent like the rest of the adaptation but then again, production values in characteres animation and rushing everything is damaging an adaptation that could have improved the already really good game. The 6.41 score so far is justified and fair. Rocksterrock said: funny thing, the isekai last 1/3 is usually called the epilogue.So the anime up until now was just...one big isekai prologue... .... |
| :v |
| Yuno is the ancestor of isekai given how the game is 20+ years old. |
 |
| Yeah I can see this anime (the VN) has a bit of everything and it might be pioneer in several things. But still that doesn't mean it's good or comparable to the anime who polished time travel/drama/isekai. The writing of this anime is mediocre. Visuals and animation is high value tho. It's sucks it was wasted in this. |

It's sucks it was wasted in this. the director's infamous comment: Hirakawa vowed that the anime "will outdo the game in dirty jokes," that Mio "will be even more tsundere," and that Kanna "will be even more mysterious." I didn't know about that. Damn, what a motherfucker Hirakawa is. All of those are exactly the traits of this show that piss me off. The exaggeration is atrocious. I bet the VN is a 100 times better. Sadly I'm not a VN enthusiast. |
| So it took almost 3/4 the way for YU-NO to shift towards the isekai portion, the Dela Granto portion to find Kanna (and possibly his parents also). Other than my thought process that we'll eventually see the mysterious Yuno girl from Mt. Sankaku way back in Episode 1, but for now, it's elf girls Sayless and Ailia, the latter short-lived due to her sickness and the former the Priestess of the land. Not surprising that the pacing is already out of whack, and some backstory could have been given, but I guess with 9 episodes (plus this one), an anime original ending is probable (don't take my word for it for now). This sequence of events will be even more confusing than the real world... |

| actually excited for next episode as anime watcher xd |
papsoshea said: Lmao omg, this show just went from average to trash. It's like I am watching a completely different show - a twist that completely dismantles the atmosphere and tone. Takuya meets another two waifus, one claiming she was destined to meet him before making out. Big yikes! I guarantee you'll be rating this at least an 8 when it's finished. |
| doesn't even feel like the same show now lol |
 |
| Nine episodes is about what I figured the epilogue would get, so the pacing so far is like how I hoped it would go for a 26 episode anime. Also, wasn't it "Dela Grante" in the game instead of "Dela Granto?" This has been bugging me for a while now, but my copy of the game isn't starting for me to double check (I know the error, just too lazy to fix it.) |

| Suddenly, isekai! Does this mean YU-NO was the first-ever isekai, since the original VN came out 30 years ago or something? |
| new OP and ED! and this time the artist performer switch places! Konomi Suzuki for OP and Asaka for ED! nice! so this time we go fantasy and on a different isekai huh?!? 4/5.

| New OP (visuals and song) is fantastic. papsoshea said: Lmao omg, this show just went from average to trash.

| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Looks like not the same show compare to Episode 17 below. I hope that there is still time travelling thing on this anime after Episode 18. I don't want to see this anime going to an another world without even contributing to the previous episode. |

Why all 'lmao' and 'omg' users have always no brain? Cant even blame you. The anime is not handling the isekai epilogue as good as in the game all because of how it rushed things making it look kind of silly. |
| :v |
| It feels a bit rushed to me but it’s a nice episode. |
 |
| Well, I welcome the total change of pace. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| So far for the sci fi atmosphere, now we enter the isekai region ...And our womaniser has found a new girl! this time a elf priestess?!? |
 |
| and it goes from just bad to atrocious... what the fuck happened here? |
  |
| I don't mind this anime using isekai elements but I wish a less generic fantasy-world looking. Also the episode being rushed doesn't help either. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
