Dont quote me and spout "its worldbuilding shounentard" I don't care, lol Unfortunately, there won't be any crazy action scenes until cour 2. If I recall correctly from vol. 3, there will be some fights, but nothing too breathtaking. |

| Holy crap that ended faster than I thought it would, it honestly felt like 10 minutes at most. |
| Somethings the anime cut from the LN. (Not a big deal but I thought would be interesting) 1. Rudeus went to sleep early on during his first meeting with Ruijerd, while Eris stay up all night talking to Ruijerd. Which is why she has gotten so much more comfortable with Ruijerd. 2. It is also why she fell asleep so quickly during the Superb history conversation with Ruijerd and the Chief in Roxy's village. 3. Eris introduce herself to the Chief under Rudeus' recommendation. 4. Roxy's parents gave Rudeus quite a bit of money for their journey. That's why Rudeus have a pouch of what look like herb and bark. (it is actually demon continent currency) 5. The LN converts the currency in detail: Asuran gold coins: 100,000 Yen Asuran silver coins: 10,000 yen Asuran large coppers: 100 yen Green ore coins: 1,000 yen Iron coins: 100 yen Scrap iron coins: 10 yen Stone coins: 1 yen |

It felt so out of place compared with the animated stellar art, I have no idea why they did it. 4/5 for me for the episode. Re:Zero now has the quality crown for the season, until now Id argue they were equal. It was a deliberate choice to make Hitogami creepier. And if you think CGI is Cheap, then hoo boy, you have no idea how CGI works, do you. You are telling me this particular instance of CGI, about 3 minutes of content, was more expensive than 3 minutes of the top notch animation we are seeing so far in this show? That they actually paid more so they make the Hitogami look creepier, is that what you are saying? |

Re:Zero now has the quality crown for the season, until now Id argue they were equal. you cant be serious, in terms of the animation Mushoku is far above re:zero s2 hack if we are gonna talk about the whole season then Wonder Egg Priority have the best animation and quality overall Havent seen Wonder Egg Priority, but will definitely give it a shot, thanks :) Yea, I know, I am being a bit salty about the CGI :/ Id still argue the difference is not that great though. Even more so now, with the CGI. |
| Eris was about to piss her pants yikes, Love Rudeus' reaction. What a polite man that he is. |

We are not talking about some seconds on a distant shots, its a whole 3 minutes that definitely looked out of place, at least for me. |
| Rudeus: ''May I call you Father-In-Law?" Man got balls to ask that xD |
| “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| This was a good episode, not much else to say other than that. Also I found it funny that roxy was literally made to be with Rudy, ages matching and all |

To give it more perspective, Rudeus estimates the distance between the Demon Continent and the Asura kingdom was about the distance from Paris to Las Vegas. |

| finally an episode without too much creep, but the new continent is still boring story and i dropped today because Rudeus wants a long romantic relationship with the girl he groped from childhood, it's gross |

| A big big change of scenery in this episode. I don't know how close this is to the source material this show is and if they're nailing the adaptation or not, but as an anime only I must say I'm enjoying this a lot. Great worldbuilding, interesting characters and good production values. About my only complaint is the occasional cringe moment when the MC shares his sexual urges. But it's being toned down in the last couple of episodes so this is just getting better and better. |

| This opening section is the most personality I've seen Rudy express, apart from you know what. Other than so, I ponder how the ones who claimed him to be a child will reconfigure themselves if they will at all to accommodate this very startling depiction of his adult body. Some might not, though it's to be expected! Eris sure did overcome the innate fear the adults had tried to build in her, however, I guess that's a more easily understandable thing than not given the malleability of children. Not the most elegant way of dumbing exposition on us either, but whatever. It hasn't been too long since the "demon kind" narrative was established, so I'm not too surprised it was undone. That it had to be that uneventful given the seemingly traumatizing magnitude it holds is disappointing. Grandtakeaway for me is that I was capable of enjoying my time with the show for once, even if I still consider it a rather uninspired episode. That I didn't have to endure his pedophilic thoughts while he was looking at Eris sleeping was a grace in itself, though that it happened is still...urgh. Hurrah. |

| At the beginning was otose and gintoki speaking. God I miss Gintama. On topic I really like the fact they used cgi for Hitogami. Made him feel creepier. Although I imagined him looking more like a kid while reading the novel, this somehow fits him more. |

| maybe SJWs kids will calm down after knowing Roxy older than Rudeus lol anyway, can't wait for next, this will be the best anime this year |

| The most rushed episode after Ep. 4. The exposition of the story become a bit bureaucratic and lacking any emotion: - No flashback of tragic Ruijerd past. - Almost no interaction with the Migurdias. - They completely skipped the reason Roxy leaved her village. - NO action at all, just a shot of Ruijerd already stabing a giant turtle. - Not even they drawing a World Map on the floor, to give the audience the idea of distances and where they are right now. All this was skiped from LN, what the manga preserved, being still a better adaptation than this episode. 3/5 Check here how the manga did a better job about geography exposition to the audience:  |

| That was great. Art looked a tad weaker than previous episodes but it was so nice to see Ruijerd animated, defintiely one of the best characters in the franchise, although I have a love for a lot of characters after reading the books. Meeting Roxy's parents was also cool and I love the use of languages in this show and how the audio direction was with handling communication. I hope it stays consistent with this for the long run. The opening sequence too with the Hitogami and Rudeus' former self was also really interesting. The LNs definitely did better with the exposition of course given its advantage of being a medium full of words while the anime has time constraints, especially for 11 episodes. But I feel like the anime does a good enough job in presenting the most important aspects of the show while still retaining some amount of solid world building in the process. |
coolshit69 said: It's from a manga, Oshi no ko.MegamiRem said: That conversation at the begining was interesting. We finally see Ruijerd in the anime and he seems like a nice guy. Thou Eris' reaction after seeing him legit cracked me up lmao. Thou I'm glad she opened upto him fast. Their adventure ro return to humans begin and first thing we get to see is Roxy sensei's hometown. Hply smokes I was thinking that dude's a teen but apparently he is Roxy's father and not only that but all of the people in the village looks quite young. Also wow they live for 200 years, that's great. Eris sleeping on Rudy's lap was sweet. Just wanted to know, what anime is your pfp |

| This show had surely changed as we are presented to a new world and a different type of adventure for our characters. Nice way to say goodbye to the cheery days in the Boreas mansion. We finally have the true appearance of Rudy in his Earth life. Pretty fat but not too ugly I should say, and he is confronted by a "Human God" (ngl he looks exactly like the Game Master from "I'm standing in a million lives"). Thankfully it was all just a dream and now he wakes up in the Demon Continent, with only Eris and a Superd person called Ruijerd. I'm just gonna say it, there were clear reminiscence of AoT faces in this episode. When Eris freaked out over Ruijerd, she almost looked like Gabi. And Ruijerd when also triggered looks like Bertholdt, nice touch there Bind. Also the animations at spots are PEAK FLUID, damn I love to see it. We also got the Migurd village where Roxy came from, and we officially got Roxy's age, HOLY CHRIST SHE'S 44!!! Not just her, but the whole village have higher ages, with Roxys mother being 102 and all. Rudy was just quick to propose to Roxy's dad when he wants him to be his "father in law". A very passive aggressive rejection followed suit. And finally after gathering rest and shelter, the three ventures on to return to their homes in a continent far, far away. Let's see how they end this off since holy christ the ending is actually near now. Last 2 episodes folks, let's make it count and enjoy it to the fullest!!! |

If they had skipped the ending then they could have added a tiny bit more. However, the anime should serve as a very brief overview. The anime compliment the light novel by being a visual representation. |

| The demon-guy seems nice, but the human-god is sketchy as F, so him telling Rudy to help this demon-guy means nothing but trouble I think... Not too sure I'd trust any of them. He does seem nice, but I have an impression he may not be mentally stable. One day he may snap and just massacre everyone... I mean, he seems perfectly capable of doing that so... |

But the 2nd is nonsense, sorry. - Anime, just as like any Movie or TV Series, is a work completely independent. Made for an audience of viewers, not readers. What, imagine if somebody would say that Lord of the Rings was a "film compliment to to the books"? Most of the audience who upvoted that movies and myself never touched in any of the books. Any cinema/tv/screen audiovisual work, a form of art, that would rely on that premise, is failed from begin. Thankfully this is not the case of MT. They could do it better, but until now the anime is very good. |

| This was the best episode so far based on there being no perverted shit alone. But the world-building and Superd clan backstory was all very well done too. I especially liked how the Human-God was animated in CGI and the artsyle changed when Ruijerd got furious. It shows attention to detail and adds to the show’s personality. |
lol. That guy have a problem with absolutely any kind of character who resembles a minor (no matter the age gave in the fictional work) and is involved in anything sexual or perverted innuendo. Basically, a sjw crusader against most anime, in MAL. No worries, in other foruns here you find worse users. @Tylaen hey, check the bold word above. |

They could do it better, but until now the anime is very good. My point is that you can't squeeze in the entirely of the LN's exposition into the anime adaptation. I could tell just by watching the episode, they were trying to fit everything in but ultimately ran out of time. While it would be nice to get certain details, the written medium can fill in the gaps much more nicely. That's why the anime only focuses on prominent points within the LN because that's what is feasible. One of the reasons why Anime get the green light is because of initial investment, either from the publisher or from somewhere. Hence, the investment should get a return, either through higher LN sales or merchandising and Bluray sales. |
