| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Spider-chan leveled up! Those ugly burn scars are gone ^^ XP farming is annoying usually but it was fun here (✿´‿`) Very tough egg, it was very fun to watch spider-chan using her human wisdom in attempt to break it xD Im sure it tastes delicious if its this hard to open ಠ‿↼ Very scary snake 🐍 Level 10 reached! Congrats (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ ✧ﾟ･: *ヽ(◕ヮ◕ヽ) Very funny episode, I enjoy this a lot ^^ |

| Kumoko's reincarnated classmates sure have the best time of their lives being in royalty, whereas the spider herself is slowly gaining experience, just like farming in an RPG, and the previous life of being bullied. Well, those classmates got their just desserts, and reincarnated as pets. Now with another case: a human adventurer trying to steal a dragon egg. But LEL Kumoko became another Kuma Bear's Yuna, the creation of their own home: the former a bear house, the latter a spiderweb house just to protect the egg...and also Kumoko herself. Too bad it got burned away as easily as it comes. Gotta strengthen yourself ASAP for the myriad of enemies, otherwise you'll remain WEAK! From mere low-level bugs to a Level 9 snake, what a tough battle of survival. The hard work of being chased down and facing enemies, growing all that to Level 10 is good...but Kumoko, please make decisive decisions on your spider evolution... Starting out this on a good point. |

| Kumoko has a strong heart. She’s so positive. Ganbare Kumoko!! |

| Our Spider has been leveling up quite fast. She's already at level 10 after defeating a Snake. I feel bad for her house, she spent so much time renovating her house and humans burned it like it was nothing. That's not a good deed, Humans. Humans really need to think these things through. Fufu~ |
 |
| Great episode. Loved the hilarious anime original scenes. |
  |
| Not a bad episode again, kind of amazing how a spider has more personality and charisma than 90% of anime characters this season. Does help that Aoi Yuuki is killing it so far with the Kumoko role. Still bored by anything not related to that spider on screen can't lie. Animation and production still not too great and still a tad chaotic in nature at times with its movement and camera panning, but this hasn't been a bad show so far, especially compared to how underwhelming/disappointing/boring most other shows have been in comparison. Average is where I'd put it as since narratively, not that interesting but it's definitely watchable at least. |
| Spider finally evolves. I kinda wanna see more of this school and irl aspect, lots can be done with it |
 |
| Eyyy, so happy we had far more spider this week then last week. Really loving this show, can't wait to see how she further progresses, and how she'll react to meeting her other classmates again. |
| Kanako's spider house, room and bed looks so good and comfy now, and it's even better with the spider web traps, keep away intruders! Kanako is so quick and agile there, who would have thought? Not even herself. And she is not weak AT ALL, her courage and power just beaten that snake HARD.  I love her so much! |
 |
| Her pretty house burnt down after so much work :(( I would like to see more of her classmates and school life but this episode was pretty nice. She levelled up so fast after killing that snake. Excited to see how will she look now. |
| That's called karma XD, she got what she deserved for bullying. The spider's so admirable, she's so small but works so hard. Her little house was cute but too bad it was destroyed. As expected life is tough when you are at the bottom of the food chain but she's working really hard to get stronger and I hope she become strong someday. Thou lol I think she made a wrong choice to evolve there, lesser option might have been better I think. |
 |
| The animation was totally bearable, if they keep it like that then I don't mind, it's not bad. Too bad they burned spider girl's house, it was really good xD And she trained a lot, the fight against the snake at the end was great. And now she's evolving? I think the small taratect form is the one with the spikes. The girl who bullied MC should have been reincarnated in a worse species, I already dislike her. And for the next episode it will be a fight against a dragon I guess? I can't wait to watch it. |
 |
| When Kumoko introduced her home it reminded of Majin Boo xD This is great, I enjoy Kumoko so much and the CGI, specifically the movements are essential to her charm. Can't really imagine it done in 2D and I don't remember the last time I was so immersed in an isekai. |

Not outstanding but not terrible either. The CGI looks goofy sometimes, the camera work is a bit hit or miss, but it is a step up from Berserk 2016/2017 (same director). One gripe I have is that the story is overly fond of telling instead of showing, like how we get a quick shot the frog and basilisk and then pan back to kumoko telling us how she defeated them. I also see a bit of a problem in the future,namely with the skills. There are a lot of skills in the manga and I presume the LN. Already there are large chunks of screen time that need to be dedicated to telling the audience about these skills, and this will just balloon in the future. I wonder how they will try to get around this, hopefully not just stopping the show to throw a goddamn laundry list of skills at us everytime she levels up or evolves. I will probably keep watching even if it turns terrible, this is the kind of show I can just turn my brain of and enjoy even though it is kinda dumb. They went pretty fast over those fights. That is all the exposition. Hopefully it will slow down on next episodes. Maybe they thought those parts were too boring. |

| Don't worry. It's not gonna be dumb. Anyway, while I wanted the episode to focus on the egg and fei more(in case people didn't make the connection) , I liked the way the episode made people feel spider's loss of her home. I was quite a worried about how the show would make the audience get the idea of how she treasured her home in the LN, so seeing the anime do it in a completely different way than expected was nice. |
| The trouble with the future is that it keeps turning into the present. |
| Well they rushed some stuff, the anime original scenes were funny I guess but all in all I still think the manga is superior which is sad because I was excited to see it animated. If you read the manga you realize that theres a minor plot hole in this episode but I wont say anything because it would be considered a spoiler. |

| She leveled up several times at once, that's what happens when you're new at the game lol. I enjoyed this episode as well. |
 |
| Kumoko's house was cute tbh, too bad those damn humans had to burn it down. The voice actress is doing a superb job as Kumoko. |
 |
| Now I'm interested in that dragon thing, I'm starting to enjoy this series. |
| No tomo malas decisiones, solo me gusta apoyar causas perdidas. Disfruté Mayoiga, Ou-sama Game, Evil or Live, Mirai Nikki, Big Order, Arifureta, Ex-Arm, Tesla Note, Shuumatsu no Harem y Platinum End nope les falle con esa, lo siento pero todos tenemos nuestros límites. Así de jodido es mi gusto en anime, ¡Y estoy pinche orgulloso de ello!  |
| Our protagonist is not having anything pleasant, and the worst thing is that her previous life was not the best either, poor her! The reincarnation of the girl of the earth dragon, may have been something karmatic, it is interesting to know by what criteria the incarnation of the people was chosen. Now, Kumo-Chan decides to stand tall in this life and goes all out with the snake, which seemed like a very short battle and without so much emphasis, I would have paid more attention to the consequences of almost dying in that fight but I understand that there is not much airtime. Finally, choose between two types of evolution, a difficult decision, poor girl, let's hope everything improves for her |
  Humans may have two eyes, but we can only see one thing Don't use the scores to see an anime ええい！ なんでも やって やる |
| The CGI is still hard to get with at times, especially the during the snake fight. But Kumoko is so adorable I’m able to overlook it. Yuuki aoi carries. Pretty good episode, I’m excited to see what an evolved Kumoko looks like. Next week seems like we’ll get more of her classmates’ perspectives with taking on that earth dragon. |
 |
| This anime is actually well done? It's nice to see this studio make something watchable after the berserk blunder. For an isekai I'm really enjoying this. |
| Watashi wa a victim of cyberbullying. Everyday someone online calls me a "weeb" desu. Watashi won't stand for this. 26 percent of bullying victims are chosen due to their race or religion desu. I may look like a basic white boy, but deep down I am Nihongo desu. Watashi religion is anime. Anata wa bullying me because of my race and religion desu ka? Disgusting desu. Anata should be ashamed of yourself, racist pig. A baka gaijin like anata is probably jealous of my race and culture, cause Nippon is more sugoi than your shitty country desu. Watashi pity anata. You'll never be Nihongo like watashi. Educate yourself on nani a "weeb" is. |
| When your weak you got nothing to lose, so you can fight will all you might Kumoko! Karma came back to bite Fei I guess. Well she can evolve into a powerful dragon and when she does I wonder what actions she will take. This show is starting show so I'm hoping it starts to pick up in a couple of episodes! |
 |
| I kinda feel this episode was a bit better than the first but still only at a bearable level... The humans part fells like your stock isekai. I don't like how they made Mrs Oka a childish kid, while she's (mentally) an adult with the resolution to try and save all her students. Hugo was the one portraid the worst I would say, the voice acting and animation doesn't really convey his arrogance and ambition. Shun lines are nice and do a good job at portraying his innocence and affection for his brother, although having just a few stills of the brother in the background really screams low effort to me... Fei is just a bag that talks... Moving to "Wakaba"'s part, God there's still so much to improve on... The worst parts for me are what they do when there's exposition, from slow panning of the camera around the spider to frogs dancing in the white, it's all quite bad. Blood splattering is confirmed to still be horrendous in CGI, and sincerely biting a snake in a random place for a few seconds can't kill him... They could have envisioned a way to portray the activation of the poison skills... All in all still very deluded in how they are adapting one of the best isekai LN out there.. |

| Kumoko has to be best girl this season |
I love your awareness of forums, I didnt even think about it until now. |
| The egg was an Earth Wryn and there's an Earth Wryn near the town. Coincidence, I think not! Looks like mamas coming |
 |
| Uggggh they rushed through some fights, and the snake fight didn’t feel as impactful as in the LN, but it’s fine, I guess they wanted to reach a certain part for the end of the episode. Of course they would end with her evolving Pretty good episode, I’m scared to see the dragon the next time I know it will be in awful CGI |

| they fast forward some of her early fights otherwise still ok. Ep 1 and 2 full of details which look unimportant but are easter eggs, for later on when you know a lot more. SickDuck said: I probably will be, the only problem is that I can't stand reading a novel on a screen. So I gotta buy the paperbacks. Do you also know how far ahead the LN is? LN is really far, there are 10 vol. in english (11. coming soon) even with 24 ep. i doubt we will get to vol. 10. (manga is somewhere at end of 4 vol. right now) |
| Man looks like Kumoko had quite the bullying problem back in the real world. Hmm looks like Schlain's elder brother is quite the powerhouse. Wonder is it karma that the girl that bullied Kumoko ended up being reincarn as a familiar. So levelling up also changes Kumoko's form as well in addition to improving her skills. Its a shame about her home though after spending so long building it. That sure was a close shave from that spider swarm though. But it was the fight with the snake that proved to be the crown for close shaves. Her rapid rise to lv10 though was an excellent reward for vanquishing that snake. Overall an interesting ep that did well to expand upon Kumoko's past as well as how her fellows viewed her as well. At the same time while losing her home to humans was tragic this served to light the spark that enabled her to not only get stronger but also allow her to explore the world around her safely as well. Curious at what her new form will be like though. |

| Feel like everything is fine with the story/animation/setting etc except the fact that she was a quiet loner in her human past. Like, what is this stark contrast between her human side and her spider side? One is a huge introvert that gets bullied and eats dinner alone and spent her time playing game while the other version of her is a hyper loud eccentric spider that seems to have endless energy inside. It's like they are totally two different person, I don't get it. |
 |
| Really enjoyed this episode, very much looking forward to more. |
| I enjoyed this episode more than the last one, but the CGI on the monsters is rough. I still find the MC a little annoying at times, she is way too energetic for someone that was so reserved in her past life. Speaking of which, I liked that the girl who bullied her in the past regrets doing it. That felt like a breath of fresh air compared to similar characters in this genre. |
