Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?

[Shadow Skill]

I'm so happy now.

Yes, that's indeed positive news. Plenty of good characters in this show.

[KrayZ33]

there is a movie comming up too if I remember correctly.

edit: oh should've read the article

[shinta|hikari]

The novels are much better.

ReZero S2 when :/

In 2 weeks...

[Kraco]

00 is a recap. There's nothing new, aside from the narration by Bell and Hestia. Otherwise it's indeed a complete recap episode.

Episode 1



------------------------------


Yay, Wargames!! considering that this will be a versus between 2 Familias, I'm certain we'll actually get to see a lot of action and not much of a "tournament" style arc where half the episode is not about the characters that are important.

[Kraco]

How can a familia with a single member in total, in addition to the goddess, even play any war games? It doesn't help that neither Hestia nor Bell are too smart or crafty. Both war and games are as much about wits as they are about strength.

The episode ended before we learned what Hestia gets if she wins. Seems doubtful it would be useful to get a member from a scumbag familia. Perhaps just new equipment for Bell.

I know I watched S1 of this but I can't remember a single thing about it.

Guess we'll have to wait for the rules to unfold. But yeah, seems unfair, more so because of the obvious setup.

Not that I remember all the details of last season, but I never got the impression that Hestia was dumb, though she is lazy. She certainly knows more than she lets on. She also doesn't play all the scheming games that some of her fellows do. Isn't that why she actually gets along with the more straightforward, less powerful Familia heads?

[Buffalobiian]

I just thought Ai's choker looked super spikey. I hope it was made of super soft material.

[MFauli]

"He was totally set up"

Yes, and everyone can see that :/ I wish anime would stop it with these overdone 'traps'. Irl people would say 'fuck off, Apollo, you're lame" and wander off.

[shinta|hikari]

Are you sure? IRL, people in power do this shit all the time. Fake news for example.

It'd be one thing if some random hobo did it, but when a god does it, they tend to get their way. Also, these gods want to see a fight to alleviate their boredom. That's the main reason they went to the lower world.

Episode 2

------------------------------------------

I hope this was hinting towards what we can expect to see during the climax.
I sure hope we get another "Minotaur fight" in this season.

The combat animation and acrobatics have been rather fine in this series.

I sure liked the sniper scene - I can't say I enjoyed most of the chase though.

It wasn't the greatest episode but not the worst either.

[MFauli]

That was the worst shit I've ever seen.

Remember how I often complain about the lack of consequences in anime? This was that x10000.

So much fighting with the intent to kill (what if ONE of those arrows had hit them), and at the end NOBODY died and everyone is happily celebrating that the war game takes place (so this wasn't that, huh? 🤦*♀️).

I guess I'm too old for this shit. I want anime where deadly intent causes death/misery, because that's what happens when people go at it. This cookiecutter happyhappy bs is too frustrating.

At.least next episode promises to be better with Bell and Ais entering the dungeon.

[Shadow Skill]

Wow... I guess they're planning to make this entire War Game one entire season. 2 episodes and they just got to the first few pages of 5th or 6th novel that sets this up. This all could have fit in the first episode...

[shinta|hikari]

War game and Amazon Primeostitution will make up the whole season, from AX panel.

Yeah, another series with a target market that is not what you want... boo-hoo.

In a 13 episode season, this looks like a good place to stop. No problem if they rush through War Game to spend more time in that Amazon arc, more interesting characters there.
