WHAT?

Oh fuck this show. I mean I'm sure it'll still be one of my favorites, but still....Fuck this show.

The entire premise is essentially "let's shit all over the characters that have it the worst to begin with "

Ovan, you should read the manga~ the mangaka added more "plot" that's not in the novel and anime, ,and fleshed out alot of the side character too.

I still don't like Rentaro effectively becoming a super hero. It destroyed his dynamic with Enju that I enjoyed, and effectively trivialized her own abilities in the process. That these little monsters were somehow special was a really interesting aspect of the show, with people having to rely on children that could themselves become monsters at any given moment because of how their abilities were used. Rentaro calling out special moves also really clashes with the grim nature of the rest of the show, and hell, not even the other frankenstein's monster or cursed children bother to do it either. It feels like they just dropped a shounen protagonist into Blue Gender.

So basically, cool show, great setting, shit main character. At least in my opinion, I understand why some people might like him. I just wanted something different.

I dislike Rentaro too, and I agree that his 'martial arts' ruins things.

I'm glad I'm not alone in that. I even half expected him to . . .

Anyway, Tangy, do you think you can elaborate on some of the missing elements? I'm kind of interested in what was left out.

First guy to get infected by Spider was seperated from his wife and daughter, and finally got a job and new place to stay, he was practicing how to apologize when he got attacked, and ran away. met the female main, and asked her to tell his family, "I'm sorry for everything before"

The Mastked villan is a lot scarier in the manga

Rentaro is completely outclassed by the masked guy in all of their encounter

First meeting

Second meeting after capturing the spider and recovering the chest

Second meeting, he was saved by the big sword Initiator. is not a "bad" guy, he is just like Rentaro, pretending to be mean to the cursed, but is actually a nice guy.

His relationship with his superior is more clear in the manga.
They were child hood friend, he nearly got killed saving her, and they both like each other.
And she asked him not to go on the retreive briefcase mission

Rentaro thought the dolphin girl was either deer or monkey type at first..
Spoiler: click to toggle


Third meeting, first was Big sword guy with 10+ team of equal and higher rank.
Spoiler: click to toggle


Dolphin girl saying she'll cover MC while they go assist the assault team, and she ask MC to take care of the Big sword guy for her.
Spoiler: click to toggle


Assault team was wiped out, and Big sword guy thought MC's Initiator is dolphin girl, he can't see and hear, asking her to bring him to the masked guy, so he can fight and win.
Since he only know how to fight, he can't give her a "normal" life like Rentaro, so all he can do is win fight, so she will get recognized as important by everyone else.

Third fight, MC is still getting beat, till he used his "hidden" ability, the enchancement that the Masked guy has

Third Fight, Round 2~ First attack to hurt masked guy
Spoiler: click to toggle


Using tactic against Mantis girl, and her father, bcause I'm weaker then both of you and this part is like the anime...?

Not like the anime at all...He was completely unharmed in their combo attack

Father and Daughter combo attack, and it's super effective~
MC was forced to use the Gastrea medicine, that would make you not human anymore

Round 3 Start, MC used the AGV experimental medicine

Masked guy counters with his own "Spear", and it's ultra effective, and killed the MC

The second morning after MC's death, there was only 358 survivor after the Lv.5 attack.
The higher-up evacuated to Osaka, MC's chilldhood friend also was able to get to Osaka

His Initiator believed he was still alive, and ran away and stayed behind to search for him.

Sword guy and Rentaro, he keeps on telling that it's too dangerous for them, and let him take care of the Gastrea, prior to the spider incident.

There isn't any reason to change that~ But Dolphin Girl is the first arc, manga is only at the 80~90% part of the first arc.
Although Owl girl should appear in the anime next.

The manga sounds so much better than the anime. It's ridiculous how much was changed. I mean, sure, they'll have to pull stuff out of their ass because they made an anime adaption while the manga only had a little more than a year's worth of chapters out, but to change the tone of the entire arc by making the main character out to be some untouchable badass . . . it kind of sucks. No, it REALLY sucks.

Anyway, you haven't said anything about it yet, but how do you feel about the changes, Tangy? You seem to have been familiar with the manga prior to the anime, so I'm curious what was running through your head when you saw how this arc concluded in the show.

Also, you keep calling the initiators "dolphin girl" or "mantis girl". In the manga, are the girls' abilities affected by which type of gastrea infected their mothers, and that's where those terms are coming from?

The anime is really rushed, it seems like they are trying to do 4 book in this season, and unlike Log Horizon, which did cut stuff out, they added their own scene, and "changed" it.
The anime is kind of close to the light novel, it's the manga that's adding more stuff, to flesh out the world and side character.

Well, the "Gastrea" are based on real world, so are the girls's ability, Dolphin girl = enchanced intelligence, beside the basic strength, durablity, agility.
Main girl - Rabbit, so super speed and hearing, Masked man's daughter - Mantis, because of twin blade.
And in this pic that Ovan posted, you can see the type they are

At the pace the anime is going...Masked man should be back for the final arc of the anime.

Sweet, can't wait.

Ep.5. Owl was adorable, albeit seemed high on drugs. Also enjoyed Rantaro telling the albino leader girl how it is.

Derp. I got confused on the animation studio. I thought Mad House because the white girl looks like she's literally drawn in the weird animation style they use in NGNL.
