| Anyone knows when we're getting a 2nd season tho?? Just finished this! |
MALoween✟Mansion (my candies 2024):      |
| I am not sure if ithe last ep was on a cliffhanger but I loved it. The ending and the fight with Maru and Robin was epic! I'm hoping of seeing a second season of Tengoku Daimakyou. The Anime is 10/10 for me because the story and the jokes in it is just amazing. Expressions and feelings also effected me while watching so I had a blast watching it. I really recommend every Anime fan to watch it. |
| Good finale, I just wonder what was the purpose of that rape scene? they acted like nothing happened and Rubin wasn't even killed :/ |
Assassin2112 said: I just wonder what was the purpose of that rape scene? they acted like nothing happened and Rubin wasn't even killed :/ The same as the purpose of any other non-rape scene - To show one character's true nature, motives, and personality; and to change another character's, in this case a main character's (or two main characters') relationship with them forever. |
| This was actually a very solid atmospheric sci-fi. Both the story and the direction were great. I loved how each episode actually ended up with my wanting to know what the f was actually happening with their world. The parallel between the present and the past that were shown at the same time—sometimes the transition was abrupt, but it felt natural that it was actually quite cool. It didn't just spoon-feed the information to the audiences so easily either, which gave the audience a time to think about the world. Kinda surprised that a series this good is only getting an 8.2 on MAL, seeing how anime like Yakusoku no Neverland can get an 8.5 (and was higher when it first ended). I'll definitely read the manga when it ends |

| That show was so damn good. It really felt like The Last of Us with more supernatural content, bit still focused on the human aspect of the story. The second storyline was more like Promised Neverland meets Darling in the Franxx. Aside from a few minor flaws, this was a show I could enjoy to the fullest! |
| I need more, there is still so much that is a mystery but I enjoyed this a lot. |
 |
| so fcking disgusted with that POS Robin 🤮🤮 really wished that Maru tortured and killed him since he deserves it. ughhh pls get together with Maru instead still no announcement for season 2 :( |

Crazy for Siyun Baek and Park Yunsu   |
| All in all, this is probably the better version of Tengoku Daimakyou. While is loses some scenes & dialogue exchanges to fit into its cour length, the staff at Production I.G. had a keen grasp on scene direction. The anime conveys the emotional goal better than the manga at times, no small part thanks to the excellent sound direction and music by Kensuke Ushio (best known for his work on Ping Pong: The Animation and Devilman Crybaby). The sordid reception to the chapter of Spike Spiegel raping Kiruko was less severe for the anime than the manga, which is an example of how competent the scene direction is. While the plot points are 1-to-1, there's a lot of anime original flourishes. For example, Robin getting beat within an inch of his life is an anime original. This section in general focuses relatively more on the characters than the plot, which was the correct call. The entire thing is retarded for the sake of shock value, pooping on two characters to stand out. It's inane that Kiruko stopped Maru from killing Spike Spiegel, because...? Spike Spiegel is a just an evil man. The world would be objectively better without him terrorising it. Maru already killed Minehime anyway via euthanasia, so... yeah... just kill Spike Spiegel. "Don't kill hurr durr" was one of the many reasons this part of the manga was poorly received. The anime chooses to end this on a cliffhanger, which is sort of how the manga did, but they went about it in completely different ways. The ways the manga did it were excluded from the anime. The anime choose Tokio protecting her baby and the other children seeing a city landscape for the first time as the cliff hanger, when neither were cliffhangers in the manga. The anime intertwines the dual narrative more than the manga does. The events of the Heaven story in Episodes 12, 13, and beyond are told mostly uninterrupted by Kiruko & Maru in the manga. It's unfortunate the anime adaptation ended on the low point of Tengoku Daimakyou's narrative (in terms of quality). It did salvage some of this part, of Kiruko finally completing one of her main goals of the past 5 years. But it's otherwise pretty good. Production I.G.'s animation, backgrounds, soundscape, ect... are truly phenomenal, and elevate Tengoku Daimaykyou to new heights it didn't reach in its original form. Very much hopeful & optimistic for a season 2. The main duo travelling a gorgeously drawn post-apocalyptic setting together, commenting on basic survival, being fascinating by the world before, fighting Hiruko, slowly unravelling the mystery of the plot, their own hearts, and growing inseparable is such an enjoyable story. |
