If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Weren't they supposed to be around lv 45 themselves? This should have been a much better fight if they were.
And I think this Roe 2 is basically just a Shiroe fangirl. I mean come on...Shi Roe....Roe 2. She even dresses the same...does the same glasses thing. Only difference is the class so far.
Why would it be sarcasm? You think they're the same person?
And this was another useless episode. I don't understand if they're trying to make eps like this to appeal to a wider audience. If so, I think it's backfiring, I don't think even children would enjoy shit episodes like this.
yes, i think its super obvious that this is shiroe in disguise. come on.

They specifically set out on a journey without the high level guild members to toughen themselves up and gain the kind of decision making mindset that is essential for independent adventurers - and they end up letting this lvl 90 weirdo join their group?
It's indeed a total joke they didn't do anything against the second batch of monsters. The level difference wasn't unfavourable. The numbers were a bit bad, but in the end these things were monsters, so they would have little tactics. I guess that moment really demonstrated how much they were in a need of a quest exactly like this, without any more experienced and mature companions. This will be pointless if they stick to these new people in the preview.
Looks like people haven't forgotten Crusty, but they are only lamenting his absence, maybe even planning his funeral sans the body. Nobody seems to think it might be worth it to actually figure out what happened to him and what could be done to retrieve him. Even though they have the huge clue in the form of the weapon that probably caused it or at least was instrumental in causing it. Fuck these people are cold.
episode 17 is out
----------------------
uneventful episode, but some things i wondered about:
1.) So Roe 2 isnt Shiroe. Not only is her behavior completely different, Shiroe would also be a true villain if he went into the onsen bath with the girls lol. Roe 2 is kinda cute (now that i know shes no trap). But its really dumb how similar she is in terms of looks. I guess her brother is Shiroe. Or she´s a member of the Debauchery guild. Whatever.
2.) Was it ever explained why Rundel Haus Code carries that name? Even for Japan, this is one weird ass name. We see other People of the Land all the time, and they have rather normal or at least reasonable names. His name almost reads like an enchantment or, more realistically speaking, a piece of programming code.
3.) Seeing the pretty npc girl: Was it ever said if there is some sort of anti-sex program in the world of this mmorpg? If not, it´s somewhat (read: absolutely) unrealistic that we haven´t heard of several cases of rape. I mean, at least in the beginning phase of the adventurers´ entrapment, before they started to cooperate with npcs, there had to have been guys that decided to have their fun with those ridiculous weak npcs. I believe to remember that npcs were killed in the beginning, so if that´s a thing, well.
Just something Im sure would happen if we had this technology in real life.

This episode had a hilariously low animation budget. But better a Minori ep has a minor budget than an episode that really matters.
Looks like Shiroe also misses Crusty. Funnily enough, just like everybody else, he only spares Crusty's fate a single thought, and then continues business as usual with an "oh, well, shit happens" attitude. Damn, these people are cold. No wonder Akiba is developing social issues.
Nobody thought she's Shiroe. I have no idea why she has to look so much like him, though, apart from having the same cloak, which apparently is a desirable item for the class and thus not really unlikely.
Since he's originally a People of the Land and not the sharpest arrow in the quiver, I could see him loitering around lots of players in the beginning, catching weird words he didn't understand, and forming himself a "nice" adventurer name using a random few of them.
This is a shounen show. It can't have rape and other such seinen stuff.
------------------
I didn't watch 17 yet, but what the hell happened to the animation recently (not related to the picture)... I don't know why I'm watching this. The only redeeming part so far is that it is a better "MMO-game" anime than SAO was, but that isn't what I'd call a difficult achievement..
It's so boring

How can you not tell if he told you it was not sarcasm himself?
Peace.

Finally caught up.
Roe2 has to be one of Shiroe's alts. I don't see what else she could be at this point.
Considering a Chinese gold farming bot is a person now, this doesn't seem too farfetched to me.
She even said she was coming from where Shiroe went on his adventure, so something must have happened to trigger his alt getting created as a person.
You mean Shiroe had more than one player characters saved, one of them quite similar to his current one, only female? It became an adventurer? Dunno, seems like a stretch. We already know Shiroe had plenty of fans and admirers, even if also people who only wanted to use him as a tool to level up faster. Roe 2 might simply be one of the sycophants.
I like the idea of Roe2 being Shiroe's alt.
1. there's this scene in the opening of which I posted that picture from
2. she said she came from the moon, which is - according to shiroe - the test-server (perfect place to test out classes/subclasses etc)
3. Some/all(?) people go there and lose something there if they die... (memories etc.) which will end up as a new consciousness for twinks sooner or later? Does Akatsuki want to be some kind of "older sister" since she's so small and all? Maybe Roe2's "soul" is a mix of Shiroe's and Akatsuki's
4. She says something along the lines "How did I end up with this subclass I'd really like to talk to the person in charge"
It's as if she started her adventure like that... not wanting it obviously.
And she said she switched with something/someone in Oou.... what/where was Oou again? Gold Vault, Goblin King, some Town Shiroe went to?
Which expedition is Minori talking about?
If it's the area near the Goblin King, guess with whom she switched places -> Crusty anyone?
Crusty disappeared around the time when Shiroe wiped and Akatsuki died to the Royal Guard, right? (see 3.) How much time has passed since then? I'm not really keeping track on that.

If it's established that she really switched places with Crusty, I'll delete this show from my HDD and never mention it again.
However, I don't really see it as anything but a coincidence (and it's not like we wouldn't have already got a truckload of new characters since the Crusty incident a long time ago). First of all, Crusty's disappearance should be tied to the totally forgotten and unexplored flavour text plot thread, and on the other hand Crusty is not a single character phenomenon to begin with: He's half of the Crusty+Lenessia couple, thus nobody can replace him.
