“In other words, because you valued your own pitiful life more you’ve decided to damn my people.” I think this death was completely meaningless if they were gonna be alive again through some kind of magic.Īnd of course, for some unknown reason, the anime decided to make Rimuru less badass than he was in the manga. Shion was killed in the process of all the chaos, but of course, she wasn’t killed because there ‘happens’ to be some way to bring her back. I don’t know what went wrong, but the pacing was so horrible, that even though I’ve read the manga once, I went back to re-read it. The biggest problem with this season is the terrible pacing. or the light novel, the pacing will be a huge issue to you. We should’ve gotten the entire Rimuru becoming Demon Lord thing way before, yet it took this many episodes. It’s so boring that the first few episodes feel like fillers. And then, the story suddenly takes a 180. Half disappointment because the pacing has been absolutely terrible for more than half of the episodes, and half satisfaction because they redeemed everything with the last 2 episodes.ĥ out of 12 episodes are Rimuru doing Rimuru things, just like in the previous season. This season is a mix of half disappointment with half satisfaction.
If you were a fan of season 1 of Tensura, it goes without saying you’ll want to check this out. Thankfully, 8bit did such a stellar job on the final 3 episodes that it’s almost enough to make you forget about those issues.ĭespite the pacing issues that the middle of the cour had, I was extremely pleased with the overall job that 8bit did in these first 12 episodes and I’m looking forward to what will be an even better 2nd cour, based on the volumes I assume will be adapted. When you get to these points it’ll be pretty apparent what I’m talking about, and unfortunately they prevent me from giving the season the highest possible grade. Several scenes really could have been condensed into a few minutes rather than taking up half of an episode. They really begin to be noticeable around halfway through the cour. While it was great to be back in Tempest and see some of my favourite scenes animated, too often this season there was poor pacing and anime original time wasting recaps. first cour is not without faults, however. The comedy, world-building, political drama and strategic planning that separates Tensura from other contemporary isekai are here in spades and make the second season very enjoyable. Fortunately, I had my faith rewarded with a great first cour.Īll the things that made tensura a hit when the first season aired are back and even better than before. I loved the job 8bit did with the first season and was confident that the series was in good hands. When Tensura season 2 was announced last year, I instantly leapt for joy at the opportunity to see some of my favourite LN scenes adapted.
