So was the protagonist a child soldier, or did the war end not long after he completed his training, or what? The characters in this show seem artificially young for how they act and what they can do(not that that is at all uncommon for anime or anything). Like, if you'd asked me to guess their ages I'd have told you numbers 4 or 5 higher than what they actually are according to the OP.

Okay cool. I thought maybe the setting just operated like Resident Evil where if you aren't a top specialist in three fields by the time you're 16 you're a loving failure.

Chaika totally feels like a D&D campaign with the DM frantically trying to keep the party on track by teleporting wizard holograms in, while Chaika fucks around with her magic powers and the sister goes on a derail telling ghost stories.

I love it. Hopefully the hero and her dragoon join the party.

All the bullshit they went through to get the coffin into that manor is exactly the sort of thing I'd expect a gaming group to do.

Of course, she seemed to take the hand in stride though.

Maybe she was upset that it wasn't the whole head. "How many bits did this rear end in a top hat get chopped up into?"

Whole episode was loving hilarious.

Goddammit Fred, just because you're Chaotic Neutral doesn't mean you have to be an uncooperative rear end in a top hat. :argh:

This was just one of those forgettable D&D sessions where nothing loving happened.

Ever had your players try to befriend the bandit clan instead of slaughtering them in half an hour like you planned? yeaaah.

Man Frederica got owned two episodes in a row can't she catch a break?

That's what happens when you roll a natural 1 on your Reflex saves.

So I was thinking of picking this up and I looked around a bit for more info on it....

Is it true that the main character and his gang are basically running around trying to pick up the remaining bits of Not!Exodia The Forbidden one in order to give him a burial that might actually just lead to his resurrection or some poo poo? The MC is the villain in this case?

I'm not sure if I'm interested in an anime like that at this point.

We have no idea what will happen if all the remains are gathered. The MC is not particularly villainous. He just likes finally having a job and the chance to use his skills. If this show hasn't sold you on itself by the end of the second episode it probably isn't for you.

How will the Reconstruction Bureau guys experience a close, comfortable shave now? I bet they'll show up with beards in season two.

Feel bad for Vivi, she's pretty convinced that Gillette is the best a man can get.

I guess they figured things would get dark enough in the show already, but that does fit better into the theme of the heroes that killed Gaz getting hosed over after the war.

You'd be surprised how many car companies sell vehicles overseas that they don't make available in their home country.
