While I think Krayz is being a little snowflakey, you sort of have established a certain reputation here.

Peace.
Which doesn't change my criticism towards that whole scene.
Her hatred indeed made it feel as if he had raped her, but as it played out, that clearly didn't happen. So I wanted to see what else he did. Mind you, being imprisoned surely is bad in itself, but this anime doesn't exist in a vacuum. It was a letdown, simple as that.
Oh, and flashbacks suck. I think the only flashback in anime history I actually wanted to see was Kakashi Gaiden. Otherwise flashbacks always suck and interrupt the much more interesting present story.
What the hell are you talking about m8, that sick fuck wipped the shit out of them for fun and starved them to the verge of death for months, looted the already destroyed town, seperated the children from their parents and most likely sent the rest to slavelabour like some kind of medieval Hitler.
He didn't "put them in a room and locked the door" or something? Her hatred towards him was more than justified with that.
What is wrong with you ~~~~
This is still a "kidz"/young adult show and not some postal movie for the sick mind. Doesn't take a whole lot to imagine that they won't show children walking in their own feces and shitting themselves, and also doesn't take a whole lot for an adult to imagine that this is exactly what has happened.
What do you think will they do in a room without a toilet and why do you think they started getting sick?
Come on, seriously.

the goalposts, they moved so far....
you not getting your kicks due to the lack of gore and snuff doesn't mean the characters did act out of reason.

I understood it perfectly fine, you were disappointed and criticise the scene because you, like always, wanted to see rape.
But I'll stop here, it's completely pointless to talk about this with you, since you are being completely unrealisitc and unreasonable.
The T-Rex was just as random here as it was in the manga, but the pacing was better for this chapter overall than the episode. I also remember being clearly more disgusted at the fat dude in the manga, but I can't tell you exactly why. Here he's more just pathetic.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Flashbacks are always a dicey proposition, more so when watching weekly. It completely stops story momentum, and signals that it is doing so, sapping anticipation for the rest of the episode. The trade-off, in theory, for the cardinal sin of the flashback is that you gain insight into a character that alters how you empathize with them, or reveals a previously unknown fact or motivation. This flashback did neither, sadly. Sad raccoon girl who we met as a slave had bad things happen to her before being sold into slavery... and she had slave friends. Nothing about my perception of her has changed, making this feel like padding. Unfortunate, but forgivable.
Episode 16
the animation-style (not the art style) felt completely different, almost as if another studio started animating it. The CGI stuff sucked (like it always does) but the movements, surroundings and such had a much better "flow" to it. It really felt like they went for detail and focused on stuff that they would otherwise not bother with.
The hair, the movement of the head while talking etc. etc.
Weird - but I liked it.

Fitoria is welcome to join the long list of people wanting to get rid of Naofumi. At this point it would be a surprise for him if she didn't.
I wish he told her that.
The idea behind her statement is sound. If summoned heroes are a bother/useless, kill them then summon new ones.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
Haha. The idea is anything but sound. It wouldn't even be treating the symptoms instead of the disease. It would merely be killing the patient and then throwing a new person in the same filthy, contaminated bed to fall ill all over again.
What Fitoria should do is slaughter the royal family and all the supporting nobles, the church leadership, and all other scumbags. If after that the heroes still didn't manage to cooperate, it would be the time to slay the heroes and summon new ones. With nobody around to corrupt the fresh heroes, they might even cooperate perfectly naturally, even if the shield hero was still considered the weakest one. The three others would lose nothing by cooperating with the shield hero if there were no outsiders making it so they would lose, like happened with Naofumi. In the very beginning of this series they merely thought the shield hero is kind of a useless class and Naofumi is unfortunate to end up with it, but they treated him cordially enough. That all changed only when the royals, nobles, and clergy really launched their plans.
Plus summoning new heroes would mean they would have to level up again and gather all the mats for their weapons once more. Though I don't know why the Kingdom doesn't just...keep rare monster parts around for when they need to summon heroes. Would make it a lot easier for them.
But it's interesting to know that the Heroes aren't supposed to be summoned together in one Kingdom and should be fighting across the world. So for every town they save they lose many more since they are all packed together.
It's kind of strange the heroes are supposedly required to work as a team, yet they are also supposed to be summoned in different countries. Quite a contradiction. They would gain no teamwork experience being separated, so when a wave hits and they are teleported, their cooperation would still be rudimentary at best, just like it's now.
Why did I understand that heroes are teleported to the place the wave takes place... but it seems to contradict the idea that Fitoria has to fight all alone in every other country ?
Is there a setup to perform so that heroes can teleport to waves happening in other countries ?
Is there a distance limitation ?
Regarding my comment, well it seems our four heroes did not level that much, even our MC.
So at some point it might be just a cold decision to evaluate the odds beetween waiting for current dumbs to work together or kill them and summon new noobs...

Ep 17

I actually find Fitoria quite interesting. Her not-quite-human personality seems to be there. She's a whole lot more powerful than Naofumi's team combined, and she knows it, but at the same time she still has the familiar/pet mentality she gained when brought up by the past shield hero. She's also quite pitiful as it's evident she's tired of life and wants to join her own shield hero in death, but she had to keep her promise and keep guarding the world. She also seems to take seriously her role as the queen of the ordinary filolials, but she sure is eager to hand over that job.
Bird is the word, and once again, Firo is the most likeable loli I've seen in a while.
"mada-dame! " *denies camel sized birbs access to food*
fucking delightful.
Oh wow, I thought I'm watching an anime... must have downloaded the visual novel or something, didn't see a whole lot of moving frames.
