Actually no, we don't remember a specific thing you dislike. Everything is the "worst shit" for you, except for stuff that isn't the "worst" then it's "the best", even though in reality it's actually - 'the same'.Remember how I often complain about the lack of consequences in anime? This was that x10000.
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.
what makes you think there would or should be consequences? For whom???
You are looking at the playground of gods, no fucks are given about the death of a child from a different familia...
The only thing gods have to fear is losing face in front of other gods - that's it.
You've clearly not paid any attention whatsoever.
Not only that, why do you believe Bell's death would not cause grief and misery (for those who know him and are involved in his daily life)?
Would you be so kind and stop making stuff up that never happend or was never even suggested all the time? That'd be great.
Huh????? Like - the whole flipping episode was dedicated to them getting Bell into the familia by force and making his life miserable.. and you think they wanted to kill Bell???So much fighting with the intent to kill
It would've been healed afterwards?(what if ONE of those arrows had hit them)

Your entire posting is so aggressive and nonsensical that I don't know where to start.
So if Bell was hit in the head by an arrow that would have been healed? All the swords swinging at him? And what about friends came to fight the Apollo guys, everyone swinging their swords at each other - ofc nobody dies!
It's non-consequential bs.
Did you not watch the episode or something?? Or are you here to troll.
They *literally* said that it will be okay to cut off an arm or an leg, because it will get healed later anyway.
They sprinkled some elixir on Bell's face, who couldn't even move after he got served by that lvl 3+ dude and Bell was instantaneously back to 100% again even though he couldn't even move on it's own one second earlier.
Lili shot crossbow bolts into 2 guys' necks and backs. What do you even mean with "non-consequential", how are these things related in the first place? You can slice up some people and not face consequences (or the actions themselves are of no importance), you could also not hurt them at all and face consequences for simply trying.
So what are *you* talking about??
In this anime, it's rather obvious that the children are super-natural beings that are ways above what mortals could ever hope to achieve. Or did you forget that too? - Chose to ignore it? What is it?
They are basically Avengers. Super heroes. Demi-gods. Not a single one of them so far has the typical endurance or strength of a child or man. They are all several times more tough, agile, precise - simply put: super-humans. Lili carries around a back thrice her size which is probably also several times heavier than herself, she doesn't give a damn. So what the heck do you think you are watching?
As Munsu pointed out already:
I'm sounding agressive because you are ignorant as fuck. You ignore 90% of what is happening and then talk nonsense and about made up bullshit that never happened. You can't possibly be serious about half the things you wrote in your first post. It's so delusional - so far away from what the episodes and season 1 has shown us so far. It's as if you were expecting a completely different show, with a different pretext, a different setting.Yeah, another series with a target market that is not what you want... boo-hoo.

You refuse to read what I actually write and then keep being upset because I obviously disagree with your blabbering.
So let's condense it to one topic: What if Belle had been hit by an arrow in the head (aka insta-death)?
What if Bell had a heart attack?Originally Posted by MFauli
They wouldn't hit his head, it's as simple as that.. I already explained why: they aren't children who have never wielded a weapon, they recieved God's gift and are superhuman. What if they never actually intended to hit him anywhere near the head and tried to push him into an alley were they laid a trap for him?
And what about the other points that didn't happen and you made up? We've seen a "sniper" shoot 3 arrows - at once - from a few hundred meters away at nearly pinpoint accuracy. The target dodged and blocked(?) these arrows with his sword.
Why do you watch super-hero movies and expect the heroes to die from a stray bullet even though you saw him dodging and deflecting them several times earlier?
What is your reasoning?
I do not, I already adressed all of themYou refuse to read what I actually write
Such as:
"they were fighting with the intent to kill" - no, they never were, and thus the chance of him actually dying is already plummiting to nearly zero. Not only because Bell himself is a super human, but because, as mentioned already, everyone else is too.
"I want anime where deadly intent causes death/misery, because that's what happens when people go at it." - that's what happens when normal humans go at it, and that's not what happens in this anime, because this is not what this anime is about... no one cares about what *you* want from the show, if the show itself isn't about that.
"This cookiecutter happyhappy bs is too frustrating." - what about this was "happy happy", they were on the verge of being hunted for the rest of their lives, or give up their freedom - unless they can defeat them in the Wargames - not that it matters, it's just another show you don't like, and that's fine. But hell no, your reasoning is so flawed and arbitary.
It's almost as if you are saying:
"I watched superman earlier, but I didn't like the fact that he was a super-human"
Everyone in the world would be like "wtf dude?"

I don't expect him to be hit in the head by an arrow. What I expect is a different attitude due to such deadly attacks (and gtfo with your 'they're actually super skilled and didn't want to hit him', these arrow shooters were random low foot soldiers). When an enemy shows he's accepting your death, I expect you to forget all cute behavior. Most importantly, I expect you and everyone not to forget about these murder attempts 10 min later, when your to-be murderers welcome you in their base and proclaim some game.
And I'd be doubly upset because many friends of mine were caught up in deadly fights, too. And you can keep repeating how they're not normal humans: if the get hit the wrong way, they're dead. And the battles we saw certainly were accepting of such outcome. But no, doesn't matter, 'haha'. :/
That's what mean with non-consequential.
PS: Btw is Hestia immortal? Don't remember jow gods work in that context.
Aren't you thinking about this backwards? Of course the Apollo Familia people would be happy that Hestia accepted the War Game. They expect to win, expect some entertainment, and they also get to stop trying to capture/kill Bell.
They know attacking and harassing them on the street is wrong. They don't want to start a street war with the other Familia either.
So who isn't happy? Hestia, Bell, and that asshole who is Apollo's current ace.
Nothing is really out of place, or out of character for the setting, like you're trying to express.
Mfauli isn't saying things are out of character or setting. He simply doesn't like feel good, no-one-dies stories, which this is clearly a member of.
Peace.
Which is fine and dandy, but he doesn't seem to realize it, even after 2 seasons in this world, and 2 episodes of a 3rd season...
That's because people aren't speaking his language.
To put it in Mfauli's terms, Danmachi is a non-consequential show, which according to his definition, it totally is.
Heroes will never die, justice will definitely triumph, and friendship will overcome harsh realities. It is what it is.
Peace.
Yes. Except season 1 better hid this when Belle had to survive in the dungeon and worked his way up to eventually beat a minotaur against everyone's expectations. That felt consequential, nothing was taken for granted and it was a serious life-or-death situation.
This season 2 so far is different. It feels like all the other trash isekai. No substance, no consequences, all show. And waifus -_-
Him or the admins.
Till then, we're stuck with ya.
Episode 3:
I know I'm of mind to rush through this particular arc, but I wish the Soma Familia portion wasn't relegated to just a 1 episode phenomenon. Wish they would've expanded a bit more on the Commanders' doings, his abuses, what role Lili was going to play in his schemes (which foreshadows a good future arc if I recall correctly) and why Soma was the way he was. Seemed like all was glossed over and Lili was made a prisoner for no apparent reason.
Episode 04
-----------------------------
Poor Luan. That guy's going to get murdered.
I didn't get the impression that Mikoto was that close to the Hestia family to the point where she'd switch families until this season. She feels like an extra.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
That didn't have the impact I was looking for.
We didn't even get to see any of the results from the training. I expected a little more than "hayai"
He was too fast.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Yeah, they rushed through this. Not that I'm complaining since I didn't care all that much for this arc, but I think they went a bit too fast as it is. And the fight climax felt anti-climatic because of it, and Bell's feint was more deus ex machina than it should've been.
At this point I don't think it's much as being close to them, though gearing towards that, but more that she feels she owes them because of what her familia did to them once before.
Also, I'm not sure if this is necessarily a permanent change. We'll have to see what the rules are.
Ya they left a lot out.
Like the reaction from the God's at Bell's no chanting Firebolt.
They also left out that Bell is actually Level 3, which was right after he was the bar/food scene in episode 1. When Bell got punched or kicked it allowed him to level to level 3 and Hestia told him to keep it a secret from everyone. This is why Bell was so fast. His level was same as the other guy but Bell's stats became much higher.
That is why this episode made less sense.
The Soma familia is one fucked up place. But I guess it has to be since they are basically one big family of drug manufacturers and dealers. As annoying as I find Lili, I'm still happy she got out.
This was a stupid arc. I'm happy it's over. At least it had some consequences, if nothing else, since the Hestia familia suddenly got new members and they aren't living in a rathole anymore. Too bad Ryuu didn't join. She has too much of her own stuff going on.
