It needs and deserves one so damn much, but the sales put into question whether it will or not. I'll still pray for it, but not gonna get my hopes up too much.

I do sort of wish they would've ended the first season a little differently, just in case there wasn't going to be a second season. Like there's no avoiding a cliffhanger, entirely, but it could've been more finalized still...

Attention whore. He want peoples to react, as well as look at his profile or even his anime/manga list.
Without realizing that anyone who look at his profile realize that, and that he's ridiculing himself. If he really like slow paced anime like Gigna eiyuu densetsu and spice & wolf, then there's no way he rejects an anime for being boring or/and slow paced. This is a typical behaviour around here. Put in your animelist shows that are usually acclaimed as good, then go around trashing anything else pretending you're elitist. An elitist would never reject something for being boring, and would never call a plot that is just at its start "generic" without knowing anything further in.

On MAL, some users actually think that putting in the list generally praised shows makes them elitist and that making them elitist grant them the right to then trash anything they don't like. Typical. And absolutely boring and stupid. Well, he's going to be happy, since I took the time to look and talk about him. All I have to say is that it's a very dumb way to say "notice me sempai". Even if I notice, I for one am not impressed.

The plot is anything but generic.

Yes, the plot is a bit slow at the start, but it's definitely faster than Spice and Wolf at least. Some anime only shine after you give it some time.

Oh god how jelous i'm of u... If only i knew... It felt like time stopped the moment I opened the episode, it went for hours and hours, like literally, I had to put it on 1.5 speed just to get through it because it felt like it would never end. I regret every single second of it, would have rather watched cat porn.

your favorites and ratings for them just scream "elitist". in fact you're one of the the more cliche elitist types that i've seen. rokka no yuusha was never an elitist anime, so of course it wouldn't pander to you.


So I'm elitist because I like what I like ? I can't change what I enjoy... Putting my favorite anime in my favorites screams that I'm superior than others ? What ??? Why ? I'm just saying that there are anime that are objectively good, doesn't matter if you like it or not . Also there are ones that only few individuals like, because they found something relatable, while objectively, it's total crap.
I've never really heard anyone bashing JoJo, Mushishi or Rainbow, because everyone understands that they are good despite not fully enjoying them and then there is rokka no yuusha, tell me one good thing about it ... I watched 1st episode and expected an awesome experience, fighting villains etc., at least some fun, but nope they dragged the f*****g figuring out who's the traitor for 12 episodes, 12 F*****G EPISODES. How can someone enjoy that ? Episode 3 - Who's the traitor ? Episode 5 - still looking for him/her , Episode 9 - Still not clear.... They could have done it in 3 episodes and then show the actual story. So this anime is objectively bad, but some may find it good, because they read the novel or they like that kind of dull idea of draggin the boring parts.

How did you not find the show engaging? This isn't a complete adaptation obviously but the bits they did adapt where given apt time to fulfil their maximum potential. The rise and all of tension is handled in a great way and it all combines well with the music. I actually care about more about the quality of the things that happen in a show compared to the total number of events within. Also I started reading the LNs and they are great. 1 LN per season is definitely the best pace because otherwise the mystery would have been truncated and uninteresting. I disliked rokka in it's first few episodes because I'm not into generic anime fantasy demon god stories but the mystery twist provided a great hook for me actually to get interested in the show.

Anime is good, fucking deal with it.

But yeah a dull idea is a bunch of heroes going to kill a demon god and an intersting idea to have to 7 in a closed room setting where they all want to kill each other. It's a pretty creative way of showing of their powers and being able to compare their power levels.

Basically, Rokka no Yuusha is a mystery/detective story done right. In a high fantasy setting. It is probably the only story in this genre mix. It also has cool fights so that the MC doesn't get much time to think, and the viewers get entertained and know the characters better.

It's best watched with the intent to guess who's the 7th personally, instead of waiting for the answer. Maybe discussing it with others on some forum while waiting for the next episode.

*sigh* What you like isn't the problem. If I were to blame and look down peoples for what they like or dislike, I would be doing the exact same thing that I'm asking other to not do, which would be very stupid. You like what you like. The problem is the attitude toward what you don't like and towards peoples who like different things than you as well. The moment you think your taste is superior to others, the moment you think others have "shit taste", the moment you convert the idea "I don't like something" into "it's trash/garbage/worst thing ever" , you're no longer in the correct behaviour to have as part of a community.
There is NO superior taste, and what someone likes doesn't equal that thing being superior to what that person doesn't like either, NEVER. This is a basic attitude in a community. You can dislike something, you can criticize it easily, pointing out stuff that in your opinion don't work or are badly done and so on, it's something absolutely normal to do. Everyone have things he cannot accept, and things he loves to see in reverse. So once again, the problem is with the attitude toward others and toward users with different tastes. There is unfortunately a lot of vocal users around there unable to restrain themselves and act properly toward others members of the community.

Well, thank you. To be fair with the MAL community, my personal take on that problem is that it's directly linked to the current status of the anime media in our society. Contrary to movies, american series, books and the like, anime is widely viewed with strong a priori by a lot of peoples. It's a niche media, often criticised and wrongly perceived by others. As such, it's far easier to generate among the fans a feeling of insecurity toward their own hobby, of inferiority. That inferiority complex, that insecurity can easily leads to heavily promoting works that "cannot be looked down easily" to legitimate that hobby as NOT being inferior to others peoples' hobbies. It's fine until there, I'd say.
The problems are the secondary effects of such situation. Someone uneasy or with an inferiority complex will be tempted to find someone to look down, to reassure him/herself that 'he's not in the bottom" and strongly affirm and enforce that point of view. That's a very human thing to do. This leads easily to looking down on anything that doesn't fit the wished criteria as well as those following those shows.
Shit taste, garbage, trash, judging on something before they see it, anything goes. Going into news threads to affirm how much superior is what they like compared to what is announced, going into threads about a specific title and attract attention by bashing something that was "getting praise from the plebs".
On MAL, the situation easily takes a dire turn due to the high number of users. You'll get a lot of vocal "wannabe elitist" regrouping each others in club and such, and giving quickly a bad examples to newcomers, with also sometimes very rude but very "attention whore" signatures claiming their "elitist" status, and the newcomers will be tempted to do the same. It's kind of legitimate for a newcomer. If you see a part of a community you just joined displaying a feeling of superiority everywhere they goes, it's tempting to look at how being part of that group and feel superior just the same rather than being looked down by that group, right.

Well, that's my take on the situation. I clearly dislike that kind of behaviour but I understand why it's happening. It's self alimenting too, so even if some peoples stop being like that, leave the board or are banned for going to far, that part of the community will naturally get new users following the trend replacing those who left. I don't think that's easy to stop.

YES. This is a very rare gem, and it's sad that peoples are, outside of liking or not liking the result, quite often unable to see that fact.

I wouldn't have called you an elitist if you simply said "I didn't like it", but instead you proceeded to describe it the way you have, making it look like you think your taste is above others. And no, your anime list defo qualifies for classic elitist taste. You're not very far into LotGH, but I expect to see it in your favorites once you complete it.

All right, maybe I overdid it, but it was only my opinion, it was a pile of **** for me, I don't really care if you like it or not, just stated how I feel.

And yes, i actually do like LOGH a lot and I heard that it only gets better so your prediction will probably be correct. So what ? What if I like these kind of shows ? Does it make me immediately fall into the elitist category ?
I can say the same about you, your favorite shows are all made in 2005+, that makes you an Anime Modernist, you only like the new shows, you dislike the old animation and sound quality, you think that everything that's new is superior. That's probably not true, but I'm just doing what you did, making conclusions about the person just from his favorites.

Fuck your inability to properly argue your point without using memes to personally attack people. Seriously, you're not doing yourself a favor. You could just have focused on what he said and that it's toxic and devoid of criticism and that nobody gives a shit, but no instead you decide to also become toxic and randomly bash this 'construct' called elitists based on him liking a few legitimately good shows like LOGH. People like you are the reason why these empty words like 'elitist' and name-calling has substituted actually talking about the point at hand. Good job mate. Keep convincing yourself and others that 'elitist anime' are evil and people who like them are assholes (or someone being an asshole can be explained by them liking those shows) and maybe you'll succeed in making the anime community even worse, if that is your goal.

And for the record Rokka was quite fun to watch, but half the cast is terribly written which detracted a bit from my enjoyment. Would still welcome a 2nd season but I don't think it's gonna happen.
I probably regret this post by now.

Attention whore. He want peoples to react, as well as look at his profile or even his anime/manga list.
Without realizing that anyone who look at his profile realize that, and that he's ridiculing himself. If he really like slow paced anime like Gigna eiyuu densetsu and spice & wolf, then there's no way he rejects an anime for being boring or/and slow paced. This is a typical behaviour around here.

Even if I notice, I for one am not impressed.


Right. If the show was that unimpressive to you, you're free not to watch it. It wasn't even neccesary for you to even imput a negative response. A poorly typed negative response, at that.

I wouldn't have called you an elitist if you simply said "I didn't like it", but instead you proceeded to describe it the way you have, making it look like you think your taste is above others. And no, your anime list defo qualifies for classic elitist taste. You're not very far into LotGH, but I expect to see it in your favorites once you complete it.


Fuck your inability to properly argue your point without using memes to personally attack people. Seriously, you're not doing yourself a favor. You could just have focused on what he said and that it's toxic and devoid of criticism and that nobody gives a shit, but no instead you decide to also become toxic and randomly bash this 'construct' called elitists based on him liking a few legitimately good shows like LOGH. People like you are the reason why these empty words like 'elitist' and name-calling has substituted actually talking about the point at hand. Good job mate. Keep convincing yourself and others that 'elitist anime' are evil and people who like them are assholes (or someone being an asshole can be explained by them liking those shows) and maybe you'll succeed in making the anime community even worse, if that is your goal.

And for the record Rokka was quite fun to watch, but half the cast is terribly written which detracted a bit from my enjoyment. Would still welcome a 2nd season but I don't think it's gonna happen.

You should take a chill pill, you sound way too mad. And as far as I can see "elitism" is a term, not name calling. You're the only one in this topic who should stop the name calling and swearing, don't you think?

I should have known you wouldn't get the point. Whatever, keep spreading your ignorant prejudices based on people's favorites then.

lol @ 'it's a term and not name-calling'. That is not an argument. Everything is a term, but using it in the arbitrary way you do degrades it to name-calling.
I probably regret this post by now.

Wow, you're getting highly defensive here. May I remind you what you wrote in your first post:

All right, maybe I overdid it, but it was only my opinion, it was a pile of **** for me, I don't really care if you like it or not, just stated how I feel.

And yes, i actually do like LOGH a lot and I heard that it only gets better so your prediction will probably be correct. So what ? What if I like these kind of shows ? Does it make me immediately fall into the elitist category ?
I can say the same about you, your favorite shows are all made in 2005+, that makes you an Anime Modernist, you only like the new shows, you dislike the old animation and sound quality, you think that everything that's new is superior. That's probably not true, but I'm just doing what you did, making conclusions about the person just from his favorites.

Rokka's animation went down the toilet in the later half anyway. Bebop had far better animation than rokka for example.

Anime is good, fucking deal with it.

I would like indeed to see another season but I'm afraid to know what will happen, as this ending was so perfect and intriguing. What if I don't like the story anymore or if the production isn't as good as the first season? We need to take that into consideration. I wouldn't want this anime to fail me

Also, if the production and airing takes a long time, people will lose interest, so I say stick to the light novel?

I didn't call you anything, I just pointed out how the way you tackled that 'debate' was obnoxious and toxic, that's all. I mean the evidence is right up there in the quotes for everyone to see. But instead of you trying to justify why instead of attacking his demeanor as an individual you went to his favorites, labeled him an elitist and pretended that explained everything, you randomly call me a hypocrite for no reason in response. More name-calling is the peak of your rhetoric ability it seems.

Wow you're one bitter dude. I suggest you re-read your posts to understand why I called you a hypocrite. Also, you should stop getting offended on the internet so easily.

The ending kinda sucked to the anime tbh. If you read the 2nd LN you are in for a treat but I would still recommend you read the first LN if you haven't already re-watched the show. I've been taking the 3rd LN real slow though as I've been reading it on and off., I want to savour the greatest and it doesn't take long to remind myself of the details.

Anime is good, fucking deal with it.

Like talking to a brick wall. You should stop replying if you have nothing to say in your defense.
And who is offended? I just call it out as I see it, stop your generic straw man attempts.

HandsomeMan, that's not the first time I see you fighting like that even with just counting RnY threads... Maybe you should learn to stop picking random fights here and there and polluting threads that way? Not even searching who started, but sometimes there's a need to know when to stop...

Wow, it's like you're obsessed with me. No matter where I go or even if I ignore you, you manage to stick your french nose in an argument which you don't belong in. Don't you have something better to do, sheesh.

It is probably because it is not very good in any category. The mystery was solved by the second episode, the characters are bland, and the plot just goes in circles and overstays its welcome. I don't see why people would want to watch a second season of the same plot rehashed with the same boring characters. If you are looking for mysteries that have good suspense and something interesting to solve I suggest you watch better shows like Serial Experiments Lain, Ergo Proxy, Perfect Blue, Ghost in The Shell Standalone Complexes, Monster, Shinsekai Yori, Haibane Renmei, FMA, etc.

I do wonder how come everybody seemed to just "solve" the mystery by episode 2, a bit of an exaggeration, don't you think?

Plus it has been told many times that the second volume is nothing like the first one, why do people keep repeating same factually incorrent stuff?

- Too many hints and weird character interactions.
- The ending foreshadows it.

If you watched past the second episode it only becomes more obvious.

The next arc of the story is just them trying to figure out who the second fake is.
