It kinda irked me how in the end they did find the tie due to a miracle rather than hard work and guts. The guy getting his way against the gods just by being a true Nonoriri would have been an okay attention hook, I guess, but we didn't get that. Alas, I'd rather just rewatch Tenpuru.

I didn't expect much but I liked it a lot. I might be comparing it to Utena, but actually I don't have much of an idea what the bread and butter of this series will be after the introductory arc. Let's see if it will manage to stay entertaining.
No.37087
Tsuma, Shougakusei ni Naru is an awful adaptation. 11 chapters in two episodes. They skip a lot, change stuff. For anyone interesting read the manga. It is finished. With this tempo, they are trying to do all 111 chapters in 12 episodes, I would guess.
No.37088
Chi.: Chikyuu no Undou ni Tsuite starts like Reddit the anime, but the main character is mostly redeemed by the end of the second episode.
Even so, the interactions between the scientists and the inquisitor/s are probably gonna be a lot more anime than it was in real life. Think in general you had to be vocal about more than just heliocentrism to get burned. Then again heliocentrism is only more correct than geocentrism, though I am sure the anime will get to further updates, maybe even more than what was historically done.

Nice to know it's not as bad as I expected from reading the synopsis.There is always a chance for my good will to disappear after later episodes, but let's put it this way - the guy that gets burned for his heliocentric believes (though as far as I know that has never actually happened), believes in God himself and he just wants to see the true beauty of the world he created. The pastor, the MC's adoptive father, is implied to be an astronomy nerd in disguise. Even the Inquisitor is given more grayish implications about him, though I still bet the guy that hired him and that branch of the church at least will be portrayed mostly as cartoonishly evil, though I could be wrong.
>A damn shame.Made me realize the manga is fully translated now so I just finished that. Overall great stuff, though, arguably the last arc when for a bit too long.

I love it when an anime turns a showcase of club activities into a parade of whacky sports from around the globe. We of course know kabaddi, and I'm pretty sure I'd heard of pesäpallo and sepak takraw in anime before, but kin-ball caught me. We really do live in the Pissing-about Age, as a wise man once said.
Besides this, I'm rather liking this anime. Quite possibly my most solid pick so far. The story's rather shallow, but the fairytale visuals really keep you from expecting anything else. It's well balanced and quite enjoyable.

Maou 2099 is kind of a wasted opportunity. The main point of interest is the world, however they put the MC in a job where he just stays inside all day. The maou of course just wants "world peace", which is boring.

It strikes me that I haven't shilled Mahoutsukai ni Narenakatta nearly half as hard as it deserves.
I already liked it at ep. 1, but ep. 2 really sealed the deal for me with this quote of Harold Abelson from the SICP lectures. If the teacher had gone off to write NOTEBOOK SCIENCE on the blackboard and then cross off each word, I'd've found it perfectly natural.
And yes, she does say this in Japanese, and no, it's not a coincidence because the Japanese word 幾何学 does not in fact contain any reference to earth or land. And it fits the show's theme, in which mainstream magic education only teaches students how to use an advanced piece of technology without understanding it, whereas an outlier wizard teaches her pupils how to understand and master magic from its very foundations.
A not-so-subtle message about technology in current society, peeking from behind a cast of endearingly cliched characters and a plot out of a weekend morning cartoon, all wrapped in pastel visuals that have no business being this prominent or this pretty. Stop acting like a blonde tsundere ojousama and embrace the magic, Anon.

I am generally happy with the choices made, really, the adaptation gets the core appeal of the source material. I would have been happier with, let's say, twice the length, but nevertheless script flows really well.
Then again, I should finish reading the manga anyway. I don't even know if the elementary school stuff ever plays any major role; when I was reading it as an ongoing series I was already feeling like cutting that part wouldn't be much of a loss.

Even the friend saw the bank stuff and … honestly, I am not 100% sure. Did the friend assume he's trying to meet the idolfag in order to show her how he's too poor to afford kids? Her reaction to noticing the banking stuff was just to further discourage him. If she assumed he's bringing the banking stuff to show how serious he is for wanting to be together with the idolfag, maybe she would have said something else? Maybe even talked with the idolfag to get her to actually meet him face to face?
TL;DR: Gon-chan did nothing wrong. W*men.
This part really was the worst in the entire manga.
No.37298
>>37295It was a trainwreck. That said, the idolfag's friend acted as if she weren't fully debriefed of the situation. It seemed to me she showed sympathy as she became aware of Gon-chan's intent, but there's little she can do at that point.
The guy dodged a bullet anyway. Better to get in shape and try again than continue the humiliation ritual.
>This part really was the worst in the entire manga.I have to disagree here. The gaijin princess episode almost made me drop this adaption whereas Gon-chan experiencing one woman moment after another is at least a spectacle.
No.37299
>>37298>but there's little she can do at that point.I'd expect her to go "yeah, this is not something that should go through me, he deserves the chance to talk to her directly". The talk how much courage the single mother needed to introduce her kid also didn't make much sense as Gon-chan is there to meet that courage head-on. So no shit, of course he knows that. If she is saying that, maybe she has not realized that Gon-chan is there to reciprocate her courage. Or, alternatively, does not think that taking up a child requires courage to a man, which sadly is the true-to-life scenario in this case.
Dunno why you didn't like the princess. Maybe it felt better in the manga?

The idolfag didn't misjudge Gon's intentions - she's simply not interested in a serious relationship, and she used her child to give him a convenient excuse to withdraw on his own rather than having to flat-out reject him (which middle-aged single men who're into idols don't always have the self-esteem to handle well).

Some voices suggested that the friend could or should have tried to make them meet again, or didn't understand the situation well, and that's what doesn't make sense to me. For if singlemom had her mind made up, then certainly she must have explained herself to her friend, and given her clear instructions to get rid of the creep that wants to marry her. So I took two steps back and assumed our disagreement was elsewhere.
At any rate, the world has moved on, and now we have spent another episode on almost exactly nothing. But at least we know the source of Honjouji-san's insecurities: when she was a child, her mother supported and encouraged her. The monster!
No.37322
>>37321>then certainly she must have explained herself to her friendThat's actually directly shown to be false. The friend didn't know the entire context, and visibly changed her behavior when she started figuring it out. She knew the message of the idolfag and that Gon-chan met her kid and that's about it. You have unrealistic expectations of women, it's men who would actually explain the situation to their friends when asking for such a favor.
