Wow first MT and now SnP. Did Japan run out of terrible and trashy isekais, so they have no choice, but animate good ones?

I hope this will lead to new LN volumes.

Paladin's author replied via tweet (Oct 2020) that they are writing out Vol 5. Their long absence from social media and writing was due to physical/mental issues.

Didn't know he had issues, hope he'll manage to fully recover.

Iiterally screamed when I saw this news and my sister thought I was nuts.
Finally, Finally just is done.
Overlap, you once again has shown you are competent.

Edit: wait, no. That studio is bad bad news. I don't trust Takahashi Tatsuya either.

When I saw it, I couldn't believe my eyes for a second. Really thought this would never happen.

Does this even have enough material to anime.

Also do you remember the Rokka anime? *weeps and dies*

Honestly, the Spider was lucky to get such a competently done anime

shmaster · 2021-05-10, 23:52

Yes, definitely enough material.
The dragon fight is a good stopping point.

Then let's hope it doesn't go the way of Rokka.....

Endscape · 2021-05-11, 09:39

The Rokka anime was great though...

I also liked it. Yes, they only adapted 1 volume and it had some animation flaws in latter eps but overall it was good.

Sigh, the art direction is subpar, and the show is just cramming contents instead and fails to deliver the emotion.
I guess you can't help it with this studio in charge.
