Peach Boy Riverside
| Main article: https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2021-07-01/peach-boy-riverside-anime-airing-out-of-chronological-order/.174683 Thanks to @tetrix1993 for this CRUCIAL info: Apparently there's two version - On Air and Time Series. The episode aired on Tokyo MX is On Air, and has been shuffled on purpose. Explanation given here (use Google Translate): https://www.animatetimes.com/news/details.php?id=1623992748 https://twitter.com/peachboy_anime/status/1410596528385757204 https://www.animatetimes.com/news/details.php?id=1623992748 --> Confirming that the dAnime Store and Japanese TV versions are VERY different by director Shigeru Ueda's (Gekidol) direction. "Time Series" episodes to manga chapter adaptations to "On Air" episodes: Please pursue the dAnime Store chronological order if you wish to enjoy Peach Boy Riverside to the fullest, the TV anime broadcast is an ENTIRELY SHUFFLED order. |

| @Arian_Waifus please expect the chronological Episode 1 to show up soon in the anime. The TV version is airing differently from the web version. |
|
| I’m be honest i was confused, so that was episode 1. |

| From what I'm reading of this with DeepL (take with a pinch of salt, especially since I'm pretty smoothbrained), some of the reasons he gives are that the shuffling allows to end the show on a fitting scene rather than some random point of the manga, while going from EP 1 to EP 2 would've been too abrupt of a shift in both the MC viewpoint and overall tone. I don't know if I trust Gekidol staff on this, but I guess we'll see where this goes. Also, apparently EP1 is gonna be EP4 in this shuffled order. |
Blood_Parade said: Speaking of which, I also just realized that it is indeed the Gekidol director on this, and pray tell he TRIES to screw this adaptation with what he did on the former. The source material's fine, so at least that is a reassurance.From what I'm reading of this with DeepL (take with a pinch of salt, especially since I'm pretty smoothbrained), some of the reasons he gives are that the shuffling allows to end the show on a fitting scene rather than some random point of the manga, while going from EP 1 to EP 2 would've been too abrupt of a shift in both the MC viewpoint and overall tone.

Blood_Parade said: OOH CRAP, not again...looks like the Gekidol stuff is back to screw another series with their "talent" again. The manifestation of the lessons learnt aren't taken to heart that well eh...KANLen09 said: Speaking of which, I also just realized that it is indeed the Gekidol director on this It's the same script compositor as Gekidol too, Keiichirou Ooshi. |

CapTCr0v3 said: Chronologically, it's Episode 2 (following the web version). It's purposely shuffled around for confusion as the TV version's Episode 1.So what’s in the web is episode 2 instead of 1 . I m totally confused because it start with sally and the rabbit. I don’t get it. Is this ep 1 or 2 ? |
|
| when is episode 1 coming, if episode 2 is already here |

| I'm all for actual non-linear narratives, but taking an existing story and mixing it up is just cheap and irritating. Fuck that moron of a director. |
| Well I for one already loved Lain. |
| Who the actual fcuk thought it was a good idea? |
 |
| thanks for the explanation! i was pretty confused on what people were talking about in the forums, as well as the synopsis of the show |
 |
| Oh yeah, now that I think about it, I guess this interview also explains the sudden fanservice; apparently they're trying to go for what people could like in both the web manga and Kodansha relaunch. Does this guy realise this could very likely result in very few enjoying the final product? Trying to please everyone usually doesn't end very well. Thinking they can get away with generic anime fanservice of "woah jiggly booba, 2-second tentacles :OO" (which isn't even in the web release, btw) implies he likely doesn't know a lick of Cool-Kyou besides maybe Dragon Maid. That's pretty much nothing compared to shit Cool-Kyou pulls in something like Chichi Chichi, that's got a sex scene practically every other chapter. Hell, even PBR's web release has some straight up nudity, and I'm not expecting an Interspecies Reviewers situation out of this. Likewise, pretty much a big part of those coming in not knowing about it will probably just question what the hell are they looking at. |

| I’m confused. I thought that the purple haired character (Mikoto) was the mc but I guess I was wrong. I want to see them introduced at least and see what exactly happened in the past because this episode didn’t explain anything really except that he saved that village before. I thought he was going to show up at the end but unfortunately not. I didn’t really like the fmc much but I liked Frau and thankfully she didn’t die. Anyway, regarding the episode is the one I just watched on Crunchyroll not the 1st one then? |
| ugh why are they over complicating series that barely anyone cares about |
 |
| This anime will be epic! |

Fuck that moron of a director. yeah mixing shit up that doesn't need to be is stupid. same thing was done with Kuma Bear. not all kinds of stories can benefit from being non-chronological, all it does is needlessly confuse people. do they just think they know better than the actual author of how their story should work... |
| ....yeah maybe I'll binge it after it airs completely. |
| The reason for the out of order is so stupid and convoluted... Yet again they read to much into what they think the viewer will react and choose to do this. Might as well not adapt this in the first place if they thought the shift between MC's would be bad for anime viewers... ANN Article |

So basically we have to binge it after it ends...... Sighs |

| Will only those two episodes have their order switched, or should we expect more clusterf*ck? |

If you care enough for watching this show, wait until Episode 4 comes out then watch in the chronological order: 4, 1, 2, 3. NEVER TRUST in the TV version (which Funimation and CR releases) until Episode 4 comes out.

| Oh well so 2 more weeks until the first one is aired, there were 2 leaked episodes rights? those are in chronological order? though i cant find them anywhere. Since the fourth episode is the only one changed in the crhonological order i only need to see the first leaked episode (if is in order) and then i can start with the tv series. |

Not rewatch but watch, i havent seen any episode, i paused the first episode after 2 seconds because i thought something was wrong with that start. Thats why i wanted to know if the leaked episodes were in order, maybe its ilegal to say something here about this i guess. But yea might wait 2 more weeks then start watching in order. |

ShikishimaKrile said: FYI the leaked episodes (which really aren't leaked, just aired on a streaming service in Japan early) are in the correct order, the TV version just went on a different order.KANLen09 said: Might as well wait for the TV version of Episode 4 to come out then rewatch in that order.

| WTF are you guys doing, ugh. There should be some consistency within a single MAL entry at least. Pick either TV or chronological order and stick to it. Create another MAL entry if both orders are desired. I was going to suggest this last week, but then decided to trust the MAL community to avoid falling to such idiocy (again). What a disappointment... Just create the damn episode threads in advance and note the order used. FFS! Anyways, i guess the chronological order ends with the pre-aired 4 episodes. It may return in the BD release, but until then we will get only the TV order. Right? |
Piromysl said: Who the actual fcuk thought it was a good idea? The director probably. the thing is that episode zero, which is already out on some sites, is mostly about Mikoto so they switched the order to have the anime start with Sally meeting the rabbit girl to make her the protagonist and switch the spotlight on her since an anime with a cute big tited waifu would probably be more popular than an anime with a femboy protagonist |
