He has a decent amount of screentime for a minor character in the chapter that's getting an anime fwiw

also apparently the series has really high production values which is a real bummer that so much effort is being wasted on such a trash series


*shrug* Even if it's a series I don't care about, I'd prefer this since it means the staff is probably dying a little less than the alternative.

I checked out a random ninja series on Crunchyroll and all the ninjas got naked, so I'm unsure what the gently caress is going on with the service.

Nah, that bit is actually true. The author said that naofumi's hosed up mostly as a reflection of the world he's stuck in, though in the bits of the WN I looked at it mostly took the form of woe-is-me internal narration over whatever awful thing he had to witness (despite being party to said event occurring).

I dunno what his original sources are, but this guy posts anime project committee listings every season. Listings are done in order of investment, so CR would be second after Kadokawa, the company that owns the IP proper.

Saying that they're "the reason it got adapted" is a big stretch though, LNs get adapated all the time, the publisher obviously wanted to and put the most money in, and CR has been getting in on committees for a really wide variety of shows. If there's any motive to getting on SH besides simply the avenue being open, it's probably just that fantasy LNy stuff hits high viewer metrics.

lol its nothing like ancient magus bride

yeah, I've only read about a volume of magus bride, but the whole point is that chise is in a deeply unhealthy place and mindset for much (all?) of it. I dunno what it does with elias long term and could see taking issue with that, but it's not "slavery good".

Isn't it an artifact of it being written somewhat on 2chan and all of the characters being just characters from other series?

On the same topic is that why the characters in Demon Queen Economics are the same way?

"These characters are only here to act as mouthpieces for what I actually care about and so I won't bother with anything beyond the most basic of descriptor".

Part of it is that isekai, "demon king/queen/lord", and other fantasy LNs are generally plays on RPG conventions if not specifically Dragon Quest, so it's not uncommon for characters to be directly named or referred to by archetype.

Not to restart the offensiveness olympics that people tried to do last season, but yeah, I really dunno why this and GS have caused goons season+ long aneurysms when in the past and even this season, similarly problematic shows typically get a "wow seems gross" and then just aren't further discussed since nobody is watching them.

Even this thread is mostly "oh man I read this on tropes" and "I bet the CHUDS are saying this" . It's really weird even as someone whose mobile browser is actually recommending me lovely reddit SH memes.

well yeah, that whole aspect of goblin slayer is common enough that it's basically a meme in some respects, which is prob a large part of why its there given its origins

e: honestly it'd bug me less if it was just one random gross thing and not just carrying on a trope that random games/shows feel free to make Wacky Jokes about

- women are all untrustworthy harlots and the evil princess was based on the author's ex(is there a source for that, seen it claimed a few times in this thread and elsewhere)
