My favorite part about this show is that at no point does any character stop to monologue about what their magic powers do or how they work.

Everything Burrito posted:That was my assumption as well but it didn't make a whole lot of sense if the setting is her dad's former empire so why wouldn't she be speaking whatever everyone else is. It's likely they instated a new national language when he was overthrown. That's pretty common.

Yeah, put me in the Chaika is a magical clone camp. And I hate comparing this show to Scrapped Princess at every turn, but the show is making it really hard not to. Guy seems like a blatant rehashing of Zephyrous from Scrapped Princess. It's a touch distracting, honestly.

Yeah, I'm starting to get the feeling that Sakaki Ichirou just wants to keep making the LN version of the one really awesome D&D campaign he played in highschool.

Man, Red Chaika totally owns. Do we really have to trade her back?

HiveCommander posted:I love how even red Chaika uses broken Japanese. I hope it's revealed that the reason she refused to talk was just because her team makes fun of her speech impediment.

The fights might not look that great, but they're definitely dynamic enough to seem pretty awesome anyways. Smoke bombs, chain-swords, magic artillery, exploding kunai, throwing dirt in people's faces, and attack-cockatrices, this is not your typical "my friendship beats your plot-device" shounen action show.

I like the twist on the "We're traveling performers" gambit is that instead of faking it for laughs, they just use their expertly-honed assassination skills to do silly party tricks.

Considering how off the rails Scrapped Princess goes, I'm not sure how likely that scenario is.

Cao Ni Ma posted:I chuckle every time a car name sneaks into the story. The author is pretty persistent with them It's nowhere near as bad as all the firearm puns in Scrapped Princess. I mean, Winnia Chester, really?

Chaika's design is pretty complicated, I'm surprised they stayed on-model as often as they did. Also, I love that S2's subtitle could just as easily be the name of a JRPG BGM track. Chaika is committed to its aesthetic. Though I think another car pun would have been better(or is it one?).
