Well, those who are unhappy with Wiz's graveyard quest introduction being removed after this episode are going to be upset after next episode, too, because another popular sidequest that was skipped earlier in the story introduced a couple of characters that play into the story the next episode is adapting. This means we're either going to get another gloss-over flashback, or those characters will be effectively edited out. They should have had an episode earlier in the season, maybe right before the castle Explosion episode, which adapted both of those sidequests, because neither one really warrants a full episode.

Never thought I would complain about stuff being skipped by an anime that is only adapting two LN volumes into one season, but frankly, I'd rather have 13 episodes and a proper Wiz introduction than 10 episodes, cut scenes, and a Yunyun OVA...

really disappointing, honestly. It was a nice chance for Kazuma to show off a little and show that most people in this world actually AREN'T stupid/weird.

To be honest, it wouldn't make much difference. The real problem is the skirt. Megumin has a short skirt as well but it seems a lot less.. fluttery.

Of course, this is anime so the clothes don't really matter.

Perhaps the word you're looking for is diaphanous?

No but I'll take it.

[EDIT]

Oh I just saw this. An OVA being released with the next light novel volume.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4FOQ5NzodA

Seems to involve an older female Crimson Demon. And, of course, a bath scene. Also Kazuma with his head on Aqua's lap rubbing her leg for some reason...

( Someone may have mentioned this already)

Episode 11 (actually) will be Full BTO? What a steady business...
I thought omitted episode will be a bonus disc for LN or DVD/BD. But seems episode 11 has that part. And some people say that Kadokawa 10 episodes series have high possibility for 2nd season.

Anyway the stability of this anime is awesome. Aqua is in disorder miserably in every single episode. She never let us down always.

Episode 8:
Well it seems that Kazuma's party got a place to stay, but they'll have to exorcise some ghosts. I blame Aqua for making a barrier at the cemetery!

Meanwhile, Wiz is so cute as a lich... Having Yui Horie voicing Wiz also counts!

You know, the way these "Demon King" and "Leaders" are being shown... sounds like they're actually just some sort of Party People that's just going around having fun, lol

Headless Knight just wanted some peace and quiet on vocation (who apparently is also a perv...)
And the Lich have never actually hurt any people even tho she's suppose to be one of the top "evil"... not to mention the Lich is very polite, she's probably more Goddess than Aqua the Useless Goddess...

At this point, I wonder if the Demon King is actually one of those "cool maou MCs" we've seen from other series...

The justification for any anime's moezation or flanderzation of fictional/historical or mythical characters and creatures really doesn't matter unless it's an important plot point. That is the norm for things like that to happen in this medium. On top of that there is variance in interpretations of monsters and legends surrounding them that strict adherence to one isn't necessary. She isn't the first Lich with flesh I've seen in fact in most videogames for example don't even have them with soul jars. Besides it's not like she only character in this who is a bit off from what you would expect of its' it source, Verdia is a Dullahan, but acts nothing like one. This for mostly a comedy anyway so it doesn't need to concern itself much with accuracy.

The way they meet her on that episode don't make any sense if you don't actually hav read neither manga or novel, they just act like already know her before what not happened even the flashbacks showing her making even more weird,

that was the worst cute they did on this serie i could accept others but this is was really weird, even her introduction here was less fun than the manga(happened few funny things before the tear and even during it).
The only odd thing about her introduction here is that we never saw the minor incident itself Kazuma and the others met her in. Beyond that she was introduced as acquaintance Kazuma met once before and everything we need to know about her was learned right there, the misadventure itself included. It's not like she is a sudden main character who's buddy buddy with our protagonist we never heard of before so her integration into the cast works as fine as it is. It's not as we have to know everything single thing Kazuma and co do or be there when they every person for the first time. They have been that town for months at least now so we should be operating under assumption we just peaking to a fraction of the things they do.

I really don't mind original content my big problem is when they try to mix "be faithfull and be original, then we get a lot of bad cuts and changes where not needed.

Well since this is only 10 episodes well.. probably i not gonna skip i was thinking this is a 12 to 13 but 10 then i can endure 2 more episodes since i'm so nearlly the end.

But really a big disappointement when comes to "adaptation' or try to be "faithfull for me could be more pratical they go full original content rater than make a "frankstein anime" well that is my opnion, some cuts here and there can be endured but large cuts and changes are hard to deal.
I'm not sure what you mean by original content here, but "cuts" and "alterations" usual happen for practical reasons with a variety of factors involved. They normally tend to be things that show can do without, or essentially be rearranged later down the line to achieve the same point. This pretty much what happened Wiz's introduction and why it works out the way it does. Where she met them in the source is less important especially since a adaptation is ultimately it's own thing.

I'm no fan of cuts as much as the next guy especially if something I wanted to see but that is the reality of any visual medium based off something. It's not much of an excuse for the hyperbole your making, maybe the show is ruined for you but certainly not for a lot of others. Myself included.

I actually think it would pretty boring in itself if everyone wasn't weird in someway. I'm not watching this show normal characters personally.

I just realized Aqua gave Eris a backlog just by putting up that barrier and exorcising the spirits.

Episode 8
I think they should have shown the group's interaction with Wiz and how they screw things up there. Things didn't feel right here because we don't know how they're acquainted with Wiz and why Aqua was pissed at her etc. But anyway, their interaction with Wiz was another case of retardedness lol.

So Wiz is one of the demon king's generals or something and has a barrier to prevent people from reaching him. But she doesn't want to die. And she was expecting Aqua to hold back lol.
Lol I did not expect Mr Dullahan to be a pervert. Although he found a pretty neat way of using his head lol.

So a mansion is haunted and evil spirits keep on coming there no matter how many times they're exorcised. And Aqua takes care of those scary dolls haunting the place and not letting the residents go to the washroom in peace. But it was her own fault in the first place since her previous exorcism at the graveyard in Wiz's stead caused this.

And what the hell is up with that woman? Why are you burning someone's clothes for fire? What is wrong with you? Her retardedness knows no bounds.

Well, we do know she has below average intelligence, the people that worship her are psychos, she's incredibly selfish. She's basically an adult sized child who also happens to be a Goddess.

Aqua seems just hate her because she's undead, thus evil in her POV going by her interaction. It's nothing personal against her specifically. It was explained in the episode Kazuma met Wiz once on quest to investigating paranormal activity at the town graveyard. Which turned out out to be Wiz guiding the ghosts to heaven.

Yea, I'll take Eris over Aqua anytime.

Aqua is always begging on her knee and in debt too... she's possibly the worst Goddess ever... even kids seems to be smarter than her.

I like Aqua for who she is. And Kazuma keeping her in check is good.

I do have to wonder if there something wrong in that world that the souls of the dead would not pass on.

With Verdia being a former honorable knight something tells me that the actions of the Demon King is the reason why he is undead and a great number of people too.

Remember the world is supposedly so terrible that the dead would rather go to heaven than reincarnate back.

When we have a stupid goddess who couldn't do her work normally,
I won't be surprised if she's the cause for the absence of soul ascension

But this isn't her world. I can't imagine Aqua is at all connected to it. The graveyard incident was a result of her being lazy, but this is Eris's world to deal with.

Doesn't sound like it from what we have heard in the anime though.
It sounded more like both Eris and Aqua are godesses of that world, with Eris being a subordinate goddess to Aqua (However Aqua managed to become her superior given how dumb she is )

In fact several characters refer to Aqua's sect (Wiz for example to name the latest occurance)
