I can't believe they cut the mimic episode before the payoff to the The Thing joke.

In the manga wasn't the elf in the painting described as 'she' and then it's a surprise later, or was that just like a bad translation that got fixed?
|

|
IIRC, in Japanese it's just a gender neutral pronoun (which is normal) and the translator made an incorrect assumption.

Yeah, the official translation glosses it over when they get to the golden country, there's a scene where Yaad is explaining Thistle's backstory and Laios has a quick "we want to talk to her- er, him" I've heard professional translators talk about how they're not really allowed to ask authors for clarification on things like that, so they generally just have to guess and eat crow if they're wrong.

Gets worse - I'm pretty sure the official translation went with Sissel, not Thistle.

There's apparently more scattered bits and pieces of the upcoming Daydream Hour floating around. Laios being Laios Chilchuck being a dad Fleki being a bootlicker The reveal that Izutsumi is less of a catgirl and more of a girlcat, which considering that she was transformed at 6 makes her backstory even more hosed up. Someone literally ripped the soul out of a kid and shoved it into a cat.

I kind of adore that every panel Chilchuck’s eldest daughter has appeared in to date has very strong “I wish I wasn’t a member of this family” energy

Watching the anime, I'd forgotten how often and early the winged lion imagery is present throughout the dungeon. It's neat!

i enjoy that yaad and all the golden country citizens assumed they'd fade away once they reached the surface, but he at least appears to be sticking around by sheer force of will to keep laios from loving everything up

I've lost count of how often Ryoko Kui has done the "meanwhile, Izutsumi is doing nothing" punchline. It's always great.

Yaad: I'll allow myself to rest and fade away once I am sure that the new kingdom is in good hands Yaad looking at Laios: gently caress, I'll be here for a while.

It speaks to the quality of the author’s writing that Izutsumi being best girl is debatable.

sharkmafia posted:i think its cute that chilchuck has one daughter who is just exactly like him and is clearly as done with all the other two's nonsense as he is Given the lifespan issue, I'm reminded of a quote from some fantasy series or other from a dwarf's perspective about how hard it is to make friends with a human, because just as you're starting to trust and understand them, they go and die of old age. So, being clan-minded, the dwarf says it makes sense to get to know a human family so that by the time you get to the grandchildren you've got an idea of their quality. It's fun to imagine a whole line of Chilchuk's descendents, each grumpily inheriting their ancestor's friendship with Senshi and Marcille. As funny as Laios as king is, it's probably Marcille who'll have the most long-term impact on the future of the kingdom, in a role seemingly not that different from her mother's (is she still around?). Edit: if Ryoko still wants a tragic ending, just give us a bonus page set 1000 years in the future, where the world has become completely modern and an elderly Marcille is a Presidential Advisor and the last one from her era.

PringleCreamEgg posted:It speaks to the quality of the author’s writing that Izutsumi being best girl is debatable. Izutsumi only came into the manga more than halfway into the run, despite existing in the pre-serialization prologue. This was obviously so other characters could establish themselves, making Izutsumi's grip on best girl less absolute.

I feel like Izutsumi's schtick works better when it's added to an established group dynamic anyway. Instead of putting her into this story sooner, why not insert her halfway into another series, like Utena, or Frieren, or Madoka?

Big fan of these little asides filling us in for the extended cast. Everyone's got something going on, even if they're just some tertiary character.

everything about this series has been great from the jump, but the world building has been one of if not the best parts. i'd be so stoked if she kept doing little side bits into the future
