They came up with the term cloverfield too, so there's that.
I always thought the term "cloverfield" was partially a reference to the 2008 movie...

But yeah. I'm sure the reaction to the Silent Party Arc was mixed.

Liberal Arts City isn't a filler story though. It's a total canon story written by Kamachi.

And since it is separated by 8 parts, I would say they can do 1 episode per part and then use rest of the 16 episodes for the Daihaisei arc. Or 4 episodes = 8 parts then 20 episodes being Daihaisei arc isn't bad either. Depends on how much story goes into each 30 minute per episode.

Is Daihaiseisai now longer than Sister's? I ask because I don't want it to feel dragged on like they did a little near the end with Sister's.

Daihaiseisai is 40-62 and not finished yet (2 of those chapters were Kongou's introduction though so they'll be cut) and the Sister's was 18-39

Ah, so it probably will go a bit over then, thanks.

Keep in mind that most of Daihaisesai's chapter are way shorter than Sister's.

That's true. Hmm I guess it will just end around the 16 mark again.

Not counting the filler debut episode.

And this is why Liberal Art City arc is perfect to come out before Daihaisei arc lol

Filler because LN != Manga so the characters and stuff that happens in it will have original animation.

Furthermore, it has swimsuits and is therefore a filler arc (no matter how epic it actually is)

It's also the filler arc because Daihasesai > Liberal Arts City (clearly)

No, I know that. But the general trend is canon> filler so I said Liberal Arts City by analogy is the filler arc for this season.

Except she didn't. She let Shinobu do it.

Why would that matter if the drug doesn't harm her? She even knew how the drug worked.

Oh yes, my point was literally that she shouldn't have done it herself. As long as she let some other person do it then it's totally okay.

She knew nothing about the drug other than that the bad guy claimed it would only paralyze Misaka. And trusting the claims of that guy is ridiculous.

Yes it's okay if it's someone she trusts.

Like Sumeragi said, she's in a position to know what Aritomi is like and what he's capable of. And she later explained the pharmacology of the drug so it's implied she knew.

If Daihaisei Arc is long enough, then Liberal Art City may not even come out. But going by the date, it should come out then Daihaisei arc should come next. If Liberal Art City wasn't canon, it shouldn't even be considered a real story in the first place.

Don't put Liberal Art City arc in the same category as the Febli arc because unlike Febli arc, Liberal Art City arc was actually made by Kamachi himself where none of the story was created from scratch by Nagai or the anime staff.

It's not filler. It's just going by the official timeline.

Why should she trust Shinobu? She barely knows Shinobu. She hasn't seen Shinobu in a long time.

And even if she does trust Shinobu, why should she think that Shinobu has a good handle on Aritomi? Shinobu was surprised that Aritomi even showed up, that's how well Shinobu knows Aritomi.


Look, Mikoto did something dumb and ridiculously risky at the end of Episode 22. It is worthy of criticism. It makes sense that many Mikoto fans would not be pleased with this scene.

You can say that Mikoto had a rough day, and get beyond it that way. But it's not something that should be actively defended, imo.

I completely agree here.
------------
Let me just completely destroy Haak's point by reminding him of Mikoto's little electric skidding trick in Episode 24 of S. Do I need to point out how painstakingly similar these situations are?
