I feel like if you got right down to it the magic lie detector would make most of the rest of the trappings of the trial kind of superfluous, but that's also missing the point.

If the nobility used something as foolproof as a magical lie detector they wouldnt be able to manipulate the court into getting the sentences they want. No wonder the trials are still there.

Might I note that there was indeed a magical lie detector and yet did manipulate the courts because money and power.

Also I feel for that other poster because a lot of real life tends to feel like that and it makes me hate everything.

Instead, let us watch magical rainbows

I really want to read a book one day that details how anime is made/animated. How detailed does Shirobako get?

While it's not really a comprehensive guide or anything, I recommend checking out Sakuga Blog. It's got a lot of great articles on the craft of anime in general, like breakdowns of exceptional shows/episodes, insights on the staff involved and how their roles, styles and techniques affect the final product, and other neat behind-the-scenes sort of stuff. It's got plenty of visual examples and term definitions to go along with it's breakdowns so it's great for getting a better understanding of why a particular scene or episode looks so awesome, or in some cases why an episode/show wound up looking like poo poo.

Between that and Shirobako I definitely developed a bigger appreciation for the work people put into anime.

Hot drat, that looks really loving good.

I also like that they unabashedly cribbed the falling/jumping animation from rogue legacy, though I don't really get why.

I've not really played any Megaman of note but I'm pretty certain that's the standard Megaman jump, so Rogue Legacy would be homage to that.

Maybe they get into this in the LNs, but what does Megumin do during low level battles where there's no point in EXPLOSIONing? Stand around and strike poses?

As demonstrated in the last episode, stand around coming up with new lines for her incantation the next time an EXPLOSION is needed.

It's well established* in the lore that she cast Invisible on her underwear so that nobody would be able to peek at them.

It was a fan theory, but one the writer REALLY liked as it fits her character perfectly.

And Meguminin needs no excuse to EXPLOSHUN.
