The multiple repeated scenes were very jarring and messed up the pacing IMO.

If this were a spy show, Victoria would have been the nameless spy who fumbled and got caught that caused the mess the protagonist has to clear up, rather than being the protagonist.

I see. On checking the anime did not show them spending time traveling back to the camp after monster-clearing and I assumed they slept next to the spring, but it seems the camp was actually some distance away.

Did I understand it correctly that they arrived at one lake, cleared it of toad-monsters, but was carried to another lake which is the ‘true’ one?

Lesson learned: don’t give Wikipedia access to prehistoric aliens.

Is it too much of a conspiracy theory to think: what if the King’s secret service killed Jeffery’s fiancee and faked her suicide after her attempt on the prince’s life?

1. Gundam Zero will break at some point and be replaced with Gundam Double-Zero.

I am more used to shows where the protagonist would not keep everything for himself. It feels more typical of Japanese writing?

I guess you can see it both ways, without him everybody would probably have died and earned nothing.

Elymas could have taken just the shield and share the magic stone’s proceed with everybody, it would give people one less reason to criticize him. But that might not be valuable, haters will find other reasons to hate him.

I think it illustrates well that nobles don’t care about any individual commoner and just treat them like cattle, without saying it aloud. Even if it is anime original (I don’t know) I think it is a brilliant piece of world building.

Might as well skip all of those shenanigans and use the funds to subsidize creators and animators directly. Corporation profit? End users don’t care.

There is nothing wrong with Rimuru. Granville should stop his slime discrimination.

I wonder if anyone at the guild will take responsibility if they got a bunch of newbies killed at a guild-organized exam quest. It seemed they did not take enough of a safety margin.

Both Myne and the monster just stayed immobile when faced with a life-threatening attack. Unimpressive fight.

Angelica did not seem to register at all that she was going to lose her job. How empty was her head?

It just occurred to me that the primordials are the oldest and hence the most powerful demons, so why does a demon class above arch demon exist? Because of Guy?

“Just using age as an excuse to not grow” is such a painful truth.

Spanning Shōwa, Heisei, and Reiwa is an achievement.
