Thread title made me look into this.

I want to walk the path of explosions with them.

Who buys a cursed sword only one person, that isn't them, can use anyway?

I was half expecting the obnoxious hero to get his underwear stolen.

In Kazuma case, the skill steals what the target values most due to his abnormal luck. Luck in this series influences the accuracy/effectiveness of a skill, and the likelihood for crazy bullshit to happen.

Ah, that makes sense. At first I thought he for some reason managed to get an underwear only version.

It looks bitching awesome on your wall?

"Yeah bro, that's the cursed sword Gram. Kills dragons like nobodies business. Use it? What no. That's crazy. I'm not going to fight freaking dragons."

Or maybe there's some sort of disenchanting system or whatnot in this realm where you can extract mystical power from items.

Having the sword getting disenchanted would be hilarious.

Isn't the new episode out soon?

Which looks cute up close.

It probably looks less cute from the inside. :v:

That was stupid, gloriously stupid. Poor guy just wanted to be a boss fight, and that is what he got instead?

Grimgar thread having 9 pages to this one's 3 is all the evidence we need to the contrary.

About 70% of that thread is complaining about the animation quality. :v:

Only 10 episodes? Don't they usually go 12?

- Everyone stating that Darkness didn't do poo poo for the whole fight, as stated above.

She was very impressive doing nothing though. But to be fair she inspired the rest of the adventurers to charge instead of fleeing and that should count.

They probably didn't expect it to do so well and it's true goal was to be a standard LN ad. Nou-come, another LN adaption also only got 10 episodes. Edit: Chaika's second season was 10 episodes too iirc for some reason. Budget restraints?

Anyways, this was a pretty fun show and I'm glad we're getting a second season. I'm guessing it'll be a Fall anime?

Is ten episodes going to become the new standard?

God, could you imagine having Aqua as your defence attorney? It must be up there on the "worst possible outcomes" list

Well, at least getting executed directly afterwards would be a bit of a relief. :v:

Aqua looks like a goddess you could take out in public and not be ashamed of. At least for a few moments. :v:

Why do I have this sneaking suspicion that Darkness is actually just being forced to wear pretty dresses and attend tea parties?

I should note that Megumin could be better with her explosions if she pumped up her mana. As this would let her cast it more often. But instead she pumps up explosion itself which in turns increases it's mana cost.

Wouldn't she need to really dump a ton of points into mana to get a second cast? At that point it might be better to just slowly increase mana to be just enough for one cast of a progressively bigger explosion. Also it leads to more powerful explosions so it's better this way. :v:

Maybe some form of shield spell that protects against stomach acids?

he was also on a drama cd cover

No Megumin. 0/10 would not explode again.

Megumin's sense for names is great, but that should of course already be obvious.

Aqua is utterly self centered and whines like a child whenever she doesn't get what she wants. :colbert:

Speaking of explosions, this whole town is in dire need of one. I'm not surprised Aqua's aptly named religion reeks of being a scam. Just pay 1000 gold to join and for every other person you sign up you get to keep 50 and send the rest to whoever recruited you?

it's basically d&d seinfeld except if the characters had actual redeeming qualities

And it's actually funny.

If you didn't watch Seinfeld back when it aired when you were young and saw a few random episodes later it's not that great. :shrug:

I think Seinfeld is about as funny as having toothache personally but the problem going back to it if you never got into it is that it's oft-imitated so feels generic and simple, not that it's unfunny in and of itself.

Not quite that awful, but it is about as interesting as watching grass grow.

Soap. Detergent. Soap. Swallow. Soap. Detergent.
Time to purify this place by a professional. Time for Megumin to shine.

I wonder if things would have gone better if the statues and craven images and whatnot were even slightly accurate. :v:
