Looking at how Tensura's first season was paced, it didn't really need an extended first episode anyway. From what I recall, those other examples used the additional run time mainly for some necessary setup and exposition, so I suppose it becomes a question of whether or not Arifureta would need that kind of padding in order to keep to the production team's planned episode schedule.
***Edit***
Looks like we got some additional cast announcements:
Shizuku - Yumiri Hanamori
Tio - Youko Hikasa
Aiko - Ai Kakuma
Kouki - Tetsuya Kakihara
Hiyama - Minoru Shiraishi

***Edit 2***
New promotional video and character art is up on arifureta.com. Not too much new in the promo, but the landscapes look gorgeous. The fireball is also a proper blue now. Incidentally, from this new promo, the official romanization for Tio's family name is Klarus.

^Looks like they also fixed the CGI issue. The CGI animation of monsters looks so much better and blends better now.

Somehow, I was sure a new PV would be presented this week. Thank goodness I wasn't wrong
But it still felt like too little to me. We haven't even had the chance to listen to the characters...
(And yes, I know there's the Drama CDs, but it's a different feeling altogether to me)

Would definitely satisfy the fans if we get more content.

Oh damn. Havent even started watching those yet. I really need to watch them. So even SAO and Shield Hero had 1-hour first episode? Hope more anime adapted from LN does that since there are many LNs which gets interesting from halfway through the book.

I thought the whole studio change was due to poor quality of the original studio (no source). So maybe there is a chance?

What kind of spelling do J-Novel use for Klarus?

[Huh...?]

Initially it was "Tio Klarus" as well.
But from Volume 08, they have started using "Tio Clarence" instead (even the preview chapter of Volume 09 uses that name).

That caused a bit of confusion for me, but now that we have official romanisation, i guess J-Novel would change the names, because they usually stick with the official romanisation from the Japanese version.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By the way it seems that Kouki's name official romanisation is "Koki Amanogawa".

天之河光輝 > あまのがわこうき > Amanogawa Kouki. So, yeah, the "official romanization" just adhered to the retarded western habit of eating away the "u"s of Japanese names when romanizing them.... and those really do make a difference when you're pronouncing such names....

Honestly, just use the already correctly romanized spellings for the Japanese names. The only official romanizations you should actually take note of are the ones for foreign terms.

New Tortus Travel chapter is out. Poor Shea, still being trolled by Miledi even though she is no longer with us. Also kind of funny to see Hajime's less than stellar behavior from the early story coming back to bite him now.

[Huh...?]

I have created the articles for the Main series Manga chapters on the wikia, and have written the summaries chapter 0 and chapter 1.

If anyone is willing to help, you can use the link below,

Also, "borisdrakoni", if you have the time, please check on the content of the summaries, and fix any problem you see there.

Guess a lot of them get destroyed, as we see during the trial of Melusine Labyrinth. And most likely all of them happened during the "Zero" timeline (or else how would Melusine be able to get the records for them, for her labyrinth's playback feature).

[Huh...?]

Zero Chapter 12 and Nichijou Chapter 35 are out.

Would you actually put a map on Arifuretawiki, if I were to make it into English? Probably will take some corrections though, cause I am not sure I will put everything borisdrakoni said into the right place from the start...

By "Map", you mean the Tortus map from recent Zero LN vol.3?

Well, i would see what i can do about it, but first have to find a better quality image of it for me to do anything (since the preview one is too small to work on). Not to mention, have to create a page on "Tortus" itself as well (have already cropped out an image of the map from Manga which would be for the currently story timeline; now just wait for the Zero map, before i start working on it).
Also have to think about how to properly arrange the page, since both "current" and "Zero" timeline maps would be covered in it.

Oh, didn't read Zero properly, so didn't know.

---------------------------------------------------

On a different note, hope that Volume 10 of main series contains a Tortus map based on the current timeline. That way we can compare how much topography was changed over the course of like around 1000 years i think?
