In my opinion these last few episode left the show in a *much* better light than it actually deserved.
I enjoyed the whole leveling-island arc and the last fight was pleasant to look at.

With this I am hoping both seasons are 24-25 episodes because there is definitely a lot of content in the Light Novels to cover up to LN 10 or even 12 depending on if they rush certain key parts.
I know the next arc is definitely the next 2-3 Light Novels. That next arc is definitely worth 24-25 episodes.

More Rapthalia is always welcome.
This is welcome news.
Why :/
... ugh
Oh boy, this mediocre series people only care about because of the racoon girl is back.
I was quite undecided about watching this new season, but maybe I should have a look now that you mentioned the raccoon girl.Originally Posted by DarthEnderX
Everybody gushing over Racoon girl.
Filo is the real MVP. That cart goes nowhere without Filo.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Episode Season 2-1:
- So false-rape-accusation bitch really just gets to walk around freely, huh? I guess this anime truly is like real life: Women can make rape accusations against men, ruining their life, and when it turns out to have been a lie, there's little to none consequences. Still, this is super disgusting.
- "Why don't you try become his slave?" followed by "Make my your slave!". Anime already canceled, LOL
- The worst offense, however, is what Darth touches upon: Dear fucking god was this episode generic and boring. And the first episode is usually trying to be an exciting banger. Nothing here. Season 1 had the "controversial" premise and a cool ability that's perfect for an underdog figthting an overwhelming force. What does season 2 offer? His shield abilities are a known quantity by now and the premise is "there's a new danger, pls go defeat it". Okay. At this point, I see myself dropping this anime after episode 3. Not even the animation is anything to boast about.
Edit: And since you're all in horny-mode, I don't want to feel left out: Obviously, the queen is the hottest girl in this anime. Isn't she single now? Go for that milf, Naofumi.
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
Yes, the Queen is the hottest in the entire franchise. The whole thing is still trash, but this is truth.
The princess lost her station as a princess and also her name. She must be called "bitch" in public. That's actually probably a worse punishment than sitting in a prison for a couple of years and then being as if nothing ever happened.
This isn't indeed anymore as exciting as it used to be. That's what happens to many a series before long, unless the author is exceptionally skilled. I was only joking about watching this for Raphtalia's sake. We have seen all of her tricks already, as well. I doubt I'll be able to keep watching this for long.
Sometime between when this aired and now, I must have reached critical mass with fantasy isekai; I am surprised by how little I enjoyed this, and my expectations were low. Along with the reasons stated above (arbitrary side-quest, the slave scene (lol), mediocre animation for a premiere), I also actively dislike Raisha(sp?). Did I miss an ova or something? I so vaguely remember her existence, and she gets so much screen time as the newest girl, and my favorite archetype: the self-loathing perpetual apologizer! That's the real reason Bow hero kicked you out; you're annoying! I do not look forward to her inevitable arc where she 'proves everybody wrong' and becomes... ugh... desirable...
Without the main hook of the initial betrayal, there is almost nothing here. The storytelling is so juvenile and in service of overcompensating for Naofumi at this point. The story reparations have been getting paid out since, what, episode 10 of the first season? The other heroes are unreliable. Everyone respects the shield hero. Essentially no room for any interpretation in any of the scenes or story beats- just exposition and emotionally ineffective resolve as our heroes seek out their next world ending catastrophe. The fights were as flat and unchoreographed as I feared they would be, and tension is absent, capped off with a fairly lazy cliffhanger ending. Raise of hands: How many of us have entertained the idea Naofumi will be killing this woman because she asked nicely? Anyone? How can I possibly wait till next week?
I did, however appreciate the small flashes to characters like Melty whom I forgot existed. Roll call doesn't hurt after a hiatus. A good dunking is fun once in a while , too.
Yeah, I didn't remember any of the people in Naofumi's town, or the new girl.
For the record, I don't give a shit about racoon girl. I just know she's one of the reason's the show is popular.
This story was popular because of the fake rape accusation and subsequent vengeance. Once that is over, it is shit.
Peace.
How dare you, she's clearly the bestest of all the goodest girls, you have to like and care about her.
(I'm serious)
Didn't watch the episode yet, but I'll probably enjoy it more than you guys.
It's certainly going to be much more entertaining for me to watch than season 500 of Sword Art or some other shite. I mean, people stay around and watch "Genjitsu Shugi Yuusha no Oukoku Saikenki" or "Slime", so how bad can it be/get :P.
But who knows, usually the animation will carry a show like that (doesn't have to be "good", just decent), but who knows how far they went down with the budget.

Bad animation, 1 chapter per scene made a mess of the episode and then the slave scene was even worse than in the manga where we had the full background.
Was bored to death watching it.
All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.
When a series gets to the nation (or just city) building stage, it's easier for the author to come up with new story arcs that are not hampered by stale characters or power levels. However, if you just have the usual adventure/fights with the usual cast, there's only so much you can do to keep things interesting, especially if the whole setting of the series was initially based on a single idea like in this series. Even as an edgelord story this is very tame or half-assed, however you want to put it.
The difference to SAO is that SAO is indeed still worth watching for animation and music alone, and I hate SAO a lot at this point (well, I hate all anime where all the girls desire only one guy's cock).
If I had to say something positive about this first episode: Thes scene where birb rescued the girl by kicking those bat monsters into oblivion. That felt nice, looked good, and Filo had some real presence there, an aura of "you're save if I'm around". I liked that.
"She's the only non-loli girl in the show, your honor!" will be my defense in court
100% this. The author had one conceit, used it up with decent enough arc, and obviously had no ideas after that. Not a case of "blew through a story without proper planning and needed to pad with filler while they figured it out again" like with Bleach or even self-admitted by the author and artist in the manga The Breaker New Waves, but legitimately had no idea where to go with the story after the revenge plot was complete.
The main character arcs are all complete. There's nowhere to go with it unless they force some more bullshit in, which is what they're doing.
I don't know, everything seems pretty normal to me.
1 arc (season 1) finished and another arc starts (season 2).
First episode clearly looked like a re-introduction to the series again. The kind of episode you have in just about every other show.
Filo is still one of the best monster-person characters there is. Did you see that fat fluffy birb move and fight? It's just awesome and cute.
lets fucking gooo!
I mean, even the Shield Hero knew it's awesome to look at because that tornado he ordered did absolutely nothing!
