Could you explain this? I think I have some clue but I haven't read the last 2 vols so not sure.

Isn't the most logically test merely to go to the red land, stay awake for a day and see who dies? It doesn't seem like such a worrying mystery.
It also makes no sense to me why there are a whole bunch of people living right by the border to this land. They seem to know the cycle and we've seen that swords etc. work fine vs the monsters so setting up a wall ~50 beforehand seems pretty easy to do. I guess with the boob strap I should have known it's a more turn off brain kind of show. Still waiting for Hibike to bust out in some burning song. To answer your questions. + Show Spoiler +The fake has a genuine seal (so they can survive) but they are hard as fuck to make/get (this prolly wont even come up in the anime).
Yes there are people living near the border and it WAS heavily fortified if you noticed. They also have no idea when the demon God will come back as its not consistent (and usually has several hundred year time lag). Its the same thing with people who live near active volcanoes in the real world. They can set up a wall all they want but its not going to really do them any good. You noticed that the fortress near the border was on its last leg? Yea the Kouma forces are far superior (and they also are still active while the demon god is sleeping). Its really not a "turn off your brain" kind of show lol. Its a mystery, your supposed to pay attention. On September 09 2015 08:28 Souma wrote:
How many "love interests" are there in SAO?
Rule of Souma says a show can't be harem unless there's at least four girls (or guys in the case of a reverse harem or yaoi) vying for the MC's rabu. I would say by this definition SAO isn't a harem then. Since I don't think Kirito ever has 4 people who like him at the same time. The girls in SAO give up pretty quickly since Asuna exists. Whoa the girls do not give up. They basically moments away from sucking his cock whenever Asuna looks away. Hell they try ride him while Asuna is even next to him. It doesn't help that Asuna is basically a fleshlight so she's perfectly fine with her "friends" wanting him that badly right in front of her. Even doormat-kun would show more spine I think @Rokka - + Show Spoiler + In the anime the guy mentions 300 years ago then mentions 300 years before that so it sounded like each time was around 300 years. Is that the anime being bad? Overall the plot is basically the same of Stormlight Archive and in Stormlight I think the big bad does something far smarter in that he stops coming for thousands of years until the systems in place to deal with him are all gone and the people don't even believe he exists anymore. That is the smartest way I think to do such a situation.
Also they say the demons can't walk on water so why not just work for years trying to destroy the passage or create a dam there to stop all but the flyers from coming? Idk so far it's been less mystery and more like a lot of missing information. If an entity is smart enough to send a fake Brave I'd thought they were smart enough to come up with a better method of domination.
This anime is only covering volume 1. There is a lot more coming from the demon guy+ Show Spoiler +s. I don't want to spoil it though because just mentioning basic things about them and how they are operating gives stuff away but trust me, those demons are prepared lol. And yea if the anime suggested that it was 300 year cycles its wrong.

I have another question well two lol
+ Show Spoiler [Red dudes flashback] +As I mentioned earlier they say that a human can only live 1 day on the red land but now in the Red guys flash we see that the demon guy told them to move to the red land. Is the interpretation of that incident that he never wanted them to move but merely kill each other or do the demons have a way of keeping humans safe in the red land
+ Show Spoiler [FlemyxReddude stuff] +When Red dude told her that he loved her was that in the romantic sense? As in red dude wants to date her etc or was it more in the "you are my friend/companion" kind of love? English is pretty weird when it comes to love so just want to make sure I understood the translation right.

+ Show Spoiler +
The demons can implant a parasite into the humans so they can live there.
When he told her he loved her he meant in a romantic sense.

+ Show Spoiler +Dam the guy moves fast lol. I hope there's no triangle or something then. She is pretty hot and I heard some Hibike in ep 10. Just waiting for her to bust out in fiery song to own everyone.

What triangle ? You mean with Bunny Ears princess ?
It will start to make sense pretty quickly once the resolution comes in.

How far do you want to be spoiled?
As for how this season (volume 1 in the LN) ends.
+ Show Spoiler +The traitor is the princess.
For the rest of it.
+ Show Spoiler +Turns out there is more then 1 7th! As soon as the princess is chased away another brave shows up and everyone is back to square one as it turns out there are multiple factions within the Kouma and 2 of them both sent in fakes. From what I have read about the future spoilers Adelt is the (unknowing) 7th as one of the Kouma commanders has the ability to make someone fall in love so he messed with Adelt and made him fall in love with Fremy (I am not sure on this point but I think it was so Fremy could accomplish some goal?).

Dam that was my 2nd choice but I thought it was too cliche. Are the LNs very big? Find the pace of 1 LN per season rather unique in today's climate.
|
I'm not a big fan of Himouto Umaru Chan, but I had some good laughs while watching EP 10. + Show Spoiler +Especially when the cola fell over.

i thought you guys should just quote the pic rikka+rokka 6 braves whenever people ask for spoiler of the story

Started watching Overlord, felt like the fantasy version of Gate minus the politcal bullshit. Hopefully.
|
loli is pretty imba except that transformation looks like they run out of budget
|
clearly saving the budget for OPM
yes i know the budget for different shows has nothing to do with eachother
|
fuck me god damnit i knew i shouldn't have clicked that spoiler slaughter. i was hoping i could glance at it and there be enough there for me not to be so spoiled.
+ Show Spoiler [rokka 7th mentioned here] + i had a feeling it might turn out that way, especially with how crazy she's been acting in the last episode or 2.

I just finished watching Noir. Could someone explains why no one ever bleeds in this show? I mean, sure, the 90s were over so they didn't have to cram blood and guts and hypergore into every scene, but still, lack of blood in this anime was such a distraction. The most anyone ever bled in this show was Mireille's cheek bleeding just a little tiny bit from a grazing shot.

Gate first episodes was nice (the massacres). Overlord is just superior to Gate, IMO.
Episode 7 of God Eater : Slow progress... Need more dead people

i binged yamada and shirashi for a bit and it was pretty good when it stayed true to the title. so yea first arc quite good.
then arc 1: arc 1+ :: persona 3 : persona 4
i also discovered that this manga has an anime and watched that, was good too.

Overlord is evil log horizon.
I think its more fun though because I enjoy watching the denizens of nazarick slaughtering everyone.

LN stuff
+ Show Spoiler +She is kinda crazy not so crazy. Like her end goal is pretty good but the means are cray cray. Her and her accomplice want to kill and replace the majin then invade the human territory and get rid of the corrupt kings. Their end goal is to create a world where the two species live in peace but they estimate that it will take a lot of deaths to restructure both societies so they can live in peace,
I think the way she is acting lately is more supposed to fool the viewers into thinking she is more gone love ---> Yandere since they have suggested early on she likes Adelt and her thinking he is the traitor made her really crazy with anger.
