I like the manga and am enjoying the show so far but I can't imagine there's enough material out yet for a full season. Is there a novel that I'm unaware of? The Isekai stuff does come up but at least in the manga it's never really heavy handed or disruptive to the story. It's mostly just a crutch for the main characters obsessions and some of her advancements are mentioned in passing to be related to her previous education.

It's interesting that nearly everyone has the the same goals. The Prince, Anis, and Tilty are all out to destroy the social order built around hereditary magic nobility. Al with his inferiority complex wants to become a dictator and force change from the top down, Tilty with her resentment of her curse wants a proletariat uprising to crush the nobility, and Anis wants an industrial revolution that will shift power from the nobles to the broader society. This matches up with Anis' idea of magic being wonderment and her solution being relatively non-violent (it would still require a monster ranching industrial complex) while Tilty views magic as being evil, and Al views it as a spiteful obligation both have gone towards violent solutions.

This episode really drives home that they are trying to cram to much character development into to little screen time. I really liked how they did the characters in the first few episodes, but the pacing of the comic seems to come off much better. I do disagree that Al had a big heel turn though, he's been pretty consistent just not very fleshed out so it's hard to care about him other than how the other characters react to him. They also kind of glossed over Anis' issue after the fact, apparently she's in a coma now?

I Am Fowl posted:Yeah, the turn in the last bit where everyone is so sad for Al is a bit jarring. I get the family being "Why did it have to come to this?" But like...Lainie. He tried and came very loving close to murdering you. Any normal person would be scared to be NEAR HIM and you're FLIRTING. Are you into getting your heart ripped out? Is that your fetish? Don't forget they both just came out of an extended mutually abusive relationship where they were gaslighting each other. Al was grooming her and she was applying mind control.
