I love how fussy anime fans can performatively hate a new character at the drop of a hat. Delightful.

Kabru would be the protagonist in a lot of other stories, but he ain't in this one, and it's very very funny.

Yeah, that sums up Kabru pretty perfectly right there.

Kabru is the kind of guy who reads gossip rags and constantly posts on Kiwi Farms. He also knows Falin/Marcille are totally fuckin'.

Also I really hope there is someone out there more obsessive and hardworking than me that is sorting through all the side content, the daydream hours and adventure bibles and such, that are safe to post spoiler free for all the animeonlys. There's an incredible amount of cool drawings of the cast in modern clothing or other silly outfits + funny characterization.

Sherlock Holmes would also get his rear end kicked by magical monsters

Sherlock Holmes casually bends solid steel bars, just as a flex, and jumps six foot walls like it isn't even an issue.

Holmes could probably just punch out the Red Dragon.

I'm the normal one.

You hate ridden fucks will regret your words when you eventually grow up.

Peace.
it's interesting how Kabru handles Mickbell raging about treasure/food thieves: he never hops on it (and Mickbell obliviously never picks up on the conversational signal to lay off) but channels the conversation into putting the food theft in the best possible light, then immediately turning around to reshape the charge against the Touden co. into their shady past that only he has knowledge of. So Kabru is never on "someone else's side", the party still retains suspicions, but Kabru regains control over how much

if you've ever worked with someone who can make everyone in the room feel like their concerns are validated and their views are respected and yet somehow the consensus decision is always coincidentally the ones that the particular person wants, well

it's one thing to put down +10 Charisma on a character sheet and another thing to show it in how people actually interact, this writing is great

I think Dabru has some issues but I'm willing to hear him out.


Not sure I fully agree with killing those dudes though--I guess that far down in the dungeon it's hard to imagine shackling some dudes up (assuming you have any restraints) and safely making it back to the surface. Still hosed up.

I think that's the point. Mick always treats Kuro like an actual dog -- the entire visual and thematic gimmick is "boy and his dog" -- but [literally] peeling back the surface he's exposed to the stark physical reality that Kuro is as much a person as Mick and everyone else is. And that fucks with his head and makes him immediately backpedal to obscure the dissonance, preserving the possessive and dehumanising delusion.

I think it's just super weird to discover your friend has a sleeper build after spending most of your life assuming they were a twink.

All of the side-comics posting is making me realize just how much we need a shorts spinoff that adapts these things. It can be pretty low-budget, it just needs to give us those unconnected stories in short episodes. It's like how Frieren had oo no Mahou for silly gags.

Look, the party already trusts Chilchuck to go first into rooms full of booby traps because he's more likely to detect them before they kill someone, this is just that logic applied to living booby traps
