Also we still have the hot springs episode to go.

What was objectionable about the hot springs chapter? Nothing jumps out from my memory.

I mean there's been anime original stuff for most of the characters, so I imagine Elma'd get some too unless she appears super late.

It sounds like she does appear quite late - like episode 8 I think is what people are guessing based off of released episode titles. Still probably some time for some original material though.

So what are the odds that the anime caps off with an extended version of the encounter with Tohru's dad?

I'm expecting that or Kobayashi and Tohru's first meeting. Though I wouldn't be surprised if the final episode does both

this episode was really really good and this show ... is really really good. except for, uh, some of that stuff with lucoa, that was extremely not good. you could even say it was bad?

i liked getting to see takiya and fafnir's quiet home life. :nyoron: all the characters in this show are really sweet, huh?

i hope they put out nendoroids for this show!

If you don't coddle Nazis flat Earthers then you're literally as bad as them.
In a twist no-one saw coming, Kanna was the wicked one all along.

I'm kinda surprised they kept the Kanna/Saikawa and Lucoa/shotaShouta parts in this episode. At least in the manga those were part of the ongoing joke that the dragons have weird morals and are super manipulative. In the anime that aspect has been downplayed so it seems out of place as well as creepy.

Oh well, time to interpret those scenes in the most favourable way possible so it doesn't sour the rest of the show.

Nendoroids are made by Good Smile Company, who pays royalties (about 3% or so) to the production committee per amount made and shipped to retailers if they are not on the committee for a show. As they're not on the committee for this show, they'd have to see if it makes financial sense for them to make a figure and if they have enough resources/space/time to do so compared to other titles that have more popular merchandise or titles where they are on the committee (like Little Witch Academia).

Kyoto Animation has made similar SD-style figures, but only for K-On! in the movie ending animation costumes. It's unlikely they'll make them for this series.

I fully respect someone not liking the tittydragon bit this ep but I thought it was funny as someone who has no manga context for how it played out there and all. It's dumb fan-service poo poo but they use the music and art and all to make it more light hearted than overtly "CHECK THESE TITTIES OUT". Dumb and probably not needed in the grand scheme, sure, but at least they made it funny, that's worth a few points at least.

You cheated not only the game, but yourself.
But most of all, you cheated BABA

........It would be easier to play off Lucoa's complete lack of morals and shame about showing her body to a child if Kobayashi also weren't 100% cool with it. Not a single "what are you DOING", and instead "yeah sure I guess she'll be a succubus to the kid for a while longer" :catstare:

e: I'm still watching, and gosh, Fafnir living with the otaku is just adorably cute. I'm still annoyed that to rec this to friends I'll have to add "and skip the first half of ep 6, it's bad", but...show's still good despite that part, so.

I just give a general caveat like, "There's some jokes that have implications, but if you can forgive or ignore that, it's a fun, cute time." I do wish I could just recommend more anime to people without qualifications like these, but I guess anime gotta anime.

The developer of Brigador is a secret chud, don't give him money
So the anime and how it portrays Fafnir is pretty great. The way he's really down Makes it sound like he has a lot more history than just "Humans tried to steal his treasure" which is what the manga just brushed it off as to explain why he was so grumpy.
