Well, thankfully Keena didn't seem too upset he wasn't there. Plus he did show up pretty quickly to save her. |

For practical reasons though, the reason I don't think it'll work is budget. FMP is already a popular franchise and got some good money backing it up, which I don't is the case for this series. I'd like something like that too, but to be honest consider ourself very lucky if we can get a new season. Quote:

However, last episode he opens a portal without saying anything like it's something he did all the time, and so's the case for the regenerating limb. I understand that him being a Demon Lord makes that a bit more plausible, but I'll be more satisfied if he says something like "I need to go there ASAP. Open a portal!" or "Do you think that will stop a Demon Lord? Regenerate limb!" Sorry, it's just that it seems like an asspull and I always dislike that (foreshadowing though, I really adore). Agreed, if there's a reason why I can tolerate them using that same soundtrack over and over again when battling or something, it's because I really like it. |

Just a thought occurred. So, if he can regenerate an arm, I wonder if he can make his other arm generate a temporary clone. That way, he will have twice the fighting power.

Amusing Dai Maou took a similar path (novel->manga->anime). I wouldn't bank heavily on comedy if I were to take charge, just the school romance part, mostly anyways. I probably can't say anything about whether or not writing comedy is hard, considering I'm still actively involved in that and my answer would biased, but I will say this: when was the last time there was an Excel Saga? In the last four years, anyways, or did I miss something while I was in stasis? Quote:
Speaking of Junko, I look way back when episode 01 aired, and I immediately noted how she wasn't the typical tsundere, and how I'm amused at the nice change. I guess I should say now, it's nice to see they still maintained it well up to today. |

When I'm saying it's hard, I'm not saying it's impossible, just not easy to do. I don't know, it's mostly personal opinion, I personally find it easier to make a rousing speech than a stand-up comedy. But for example, one of the comedy series this season is Working!!, and although it's pretty good and I enjoyed watching it I feel (and at least one other person agreed) that there are funnier workcoms in the Western media. Last time I really found an anime series hilarious from end to end beside Fumoffu is Baka Test and Seto no Hanayome, although admittedly my anime repertoire is not that large at all... Quote:

he just needs to touch'em or to be near them (monsters) and they immediatly grow into huge-supa-powered up mode. lol I guess Akuto could easily replace Chuck Norris in most of the random facts about him. Now, that would be fun. I wonder what kind of new powers Akuto will use next ep...

Episode 9 = 10/10
What a great episode! A amazing twist on Keena being the law of Identity. Quick question and no I did not read the other posts........if Keena can control all Gods with a immaterial body then
a)What is that body again or exactly? b)If Sai really thinks he can destroy the Gods and their system...I think he is insane and nuts in his head to even think he can oppose them but regardless the question would center more on what would Yamato get with Keena controlling the Gods if she controls them and he wants to free them? Another nice revelation was with Hoshino Yuri being really Yuuko Hattori. What really bothered me was not knowing how she got bitten by a monster exactly but most of all this=> Spoiler:
Finally my new favorite is Yamato Bouichirou here=> because I love that post of his but also his technique. Go Yamato kill Sai and get Keena on your side + he is the one who gave her the hair pin right? Or it's villain's lie? Anyways this guy's cutting in dimension thing is amazing but Sai of course regenerating was surprising. Oh and Dahak86 you going to thank me once I put a load of Eiko GIFs from this episode just for you but man I found out over 27 GIFs just to make of this episode and 10 are over Junko only. Anyways can't wait to see Yamato slaughter all the monsters at least next episode.....really like him more now. |

One magic touch and your monster grows bigger, more powerful in just one day. Call XXX-YYY Now! --- Akuto didn't have much time to help Yuuko, with Keena in danger. Since he knows monsters react to him, staying away may buy more time. |

Yeah, I think when monsters get power up the easiest way to do that is by unleashing a direct mana blast (two-headed chicken), but a direct touch can do it too as with the egg. Yuuko is a bit strange, after all she was in close proximity to Akuto for quite a some time and not affected at all. I guess it requires direct contact with the monster parasite (either direct touch or mana, and I'm assuming Akuto didn't touch Yuuko much) and when it finally got affected it was due to his mana discharge feeding the air around him. I don't know, but it makes some sense.

Talk about a complicated day for Akuto. Just way too much stuff going on at the same time for him to deal with. Have Junko crying, her sister being affected by that monster mana, and then Keena in danger. Even with all his powers there is only so much he can deal with at once. Wonder if he'll just go straight after the Gods or deal with other things on the way.
Sadly the situation with Junko really was a double effect. She didn't make her feelings clear except with possibly that look at the end. Akuto also completely missed that he was in a marriage interview and couldn't read how Junko felt at all. But wow just opening up a tree to teleport .

So.... this turns out to be a fight between the Demon Lord and the Gods....
And the Gods are the "evil ones" as they are trying to kill off those that would pose a threat against them (even tho "them" never knew or did anything of the sort as a threat) Akuto's awesome... (maybe it's cause I like to watch God/Church, etc get PWNed...) O yea... I LOL'ed hard at the Fujiko part... control the monsters by giving them panties... LOL, such perverted monsters. |
