‘You don’t pay the authors. You don’t pay the reviewers.
We can’t give everything away for free. It’s not that kind of country.
Instead, he just takes everything from authors and reviewers for free. Is he living in a different country?
Only watched episode 1 so far. The visual quality was great but the fight at the beginning was not smooth, as if they chose this fighting style (move-stop-move-stop) so that they don't have to animate many frames.
The story is intriguing enough I'll continue to watch.
Jack seemed very unlucky to have suffered two traumatic events in his life in 1 episode.
If this were a different isekai Ageha could have a future of becoming a producer of Operas dedicated to the goddess.
Oops. No only were the parents shitty, there was a murderous butler as well. Did Sebastian think he would be able to get away with it if he was successful?
So the father with the concubine to another house to get away from the mother but the mother chased after them and stayed there too? Also the reason they came up with for the mother to hate Ageha was quite unconvincing, but I guess she was not a decent person to start with.
Isekai'd by Comiket while truck-kun and black workplaces took a break.
Characters' settings seems all over the place, is there any reason Ageha has a Japanese name and his brother a European one? The elf teacher is a Romanov and the Goddess has a Chinese looking appearance.
I hope his parents are not shitty but they neglected him (who is their firstborn) even when he was sick to the point of possibly dying, let's see if there is a good reason for that.
I share elf teacher's opinion that's not stats of a noble.
Edit: Ageha almost got spirited away. If he took up on the goddess' offer to go to the heavens I think that would have been a one-way trip.
I wonder how Beryl can be so strong if he was just training out of habit. He seemed to lack much ambition, not going back to dungeons to try to fight monsters again years after he improved his skill, and not seeking out different opponents like magicians to train against.
And how strong is his father if Beryl still can't beat him?!
Beelzebub's Garden was an absolute jungle, so vast that it was easy to get lost in it, and also housed monsters.
New character who seemed to be some magical plant. Will she join Azusa's family or will she be made into potions as she feared?
Thought Lise was acting like a newly-wed wife but no, the real perfect housewife (including building the house) was Kurt.
Kurt got back to the border town which wall he worked on in the 1st episode. The anime didn't say much about travel time so I got confused about the countries' geography, he seemed to have travelled all over it in these few episodes.
Was the guild receptionist girl who they let in on Kurt's secret last episode in a nearby town or this?
Edit: also the informant Danzo employed just happened to be Bandana. Such coincidence /s
Hey Shisui didn't do any work and just came to steal ice cream.
"I got labelled a criminal and kicked out of the Rear Palace and now they want me back for my skills"
Luomen got his own LN title.
I have no idea what you're talking about...
The story is mostly a power fantasy and revenge, but the manga is pretty well drawn so I'll be checking out this anime.
This English title is already 140 characters, the original Twitter limit.
For all the caution they take, having people from 3 different departments check, they use a method that would let a female posing as a eunuch through……
We have some idea Beryl is strong when he is able to defeat the deputy commander of the order of the knights, but now we can see how he does against magic when he attracts the attention of the commander of the mages order, who proceeds to challenge him.
That was some very bad battle skill.
But now we know that it doesn't necessarily takes battle skills to defeat monsters, Kurt can be very OP if he gets into the right mindset.
Thanks for the hard work! Glad the server is back online.
A suggestion: Post a message on status.lemmy.zip when there is maintenance. That was where I thought to check when I found that the main site was not working. Though, it was reporting the site was fine when it was unavailable, this time.
Oh, and congratulations on the newborn!
Sasuga Kurt-sama!
"We found so much of these scraps at our old town we just throw them away. They are called Mithril."
"Orichalcum? You can find them everywhere, you just have to dig 7km down from the ground. BTW, the hole may be dangerous so I filled it back in."
"Should I fill back the tunnel through the mountain which I dug in an afternoon while mining?"
"No, it is a shortcut we can charge people for using."
"Oh no, it took me 30 minutes to clean up this (very messed up) kitchen."
"Here is some porridge I cooked up that cures curses nobody else can."
The animation looked a bit different from what I remembered season 1 was, turned out this season is made by a different studio. I wonder what happened to the previous one, REVOROOT, they seemed to have stopped updating their website since 2022.
The new studio is Teddy, and this seems to be their first full season work, previously just helping out other studios on episodes.
I have read the manga but not watched the previous anime adaptation. I was surprised to hear Conan's voice from Yaiba (apparently Takayama Minami is reprising the same role from the previous adaptation). The animation quality was good, it seemed this anime has a good budget allocated. They also kept the art style from the manga intact. I think this is something I'll enjoy this season.
Shangri-la Frontier 3rd Season announced
TVアニメ『シャングリラ・フロンティア』2023年10月1日からMBS/TBS系全国28局ネットにて毎週日曜午後5時〜連続2クール放送開始!1人の“クソゲーハンター”が、神ゲーに挑む、至高の“ゲーム×ファンタジー”冒険譚、開幕!!
They just announced the making of the 3rd season, there is no air date yet. I'm impressed they have kept up the animation quality for 50 episodes and will be looking forward for it.
Also: even the official site calls Sanraku a half-naked hentai.
Unfortunately just an average trash isekai (though I don't mind that it is trash isekai). It's not notably bad or anything, just not notably good either. There wasn't much cooking in the show, if that is your interest.
Pretty sure Kenichi's line in the intro 命を燃やせ 今がその時だ (inochi wo moyase / ima ga sono toki da) is a reference to this, which also fits his around 40 age.
They basically finished the manga without the extra chapter, but the mayonaise-mage who is probably also from Japan did get a cameo in the after credits scene.

Koisuru Asteroid (Asteroid in Love) author gets asteroid named after her
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.zip/post/27130795
Two asteroids were named this time relating to the manga: Quro, the artist, and Hoshizaki, the high school in the manga. They were discovered by the COIAS team, the app which allows users to help identify asteroids from images from the Subaru Telescope, and which itself is named after the manga. They have previously identified the asteroid Ao, named after the main character of the manga.
