😑 not sure how danmachi aka wrong to pick up girls in a dungeon s5 gonna be cuz read only 15 episodes not sure if it’s gonna have a part 2
And depending on how they do it’s weird tho without spoiling
Vol 16 can be 5 episodes (date)
Vol 17 can be 5 episodes ???? Can’t say without spoiling
Vol 18 can be 5 episodes (non stop action)

It’s doable or cut down vol 16 episodes put more towards vol 17 and 18

Or just stop at vol 17 on cliffhanger but doesn’t make sense since visual shows doing whole arc
Guess wait and see approach I’ll just read the comments see where it’s going and binge see how I feel bout it

You know I can't blame Kobato for freaking out. Nobody likes being used. It seems clear that Osanai was scared and, of course, she had to do what she needed to do to protect herself. Still, the big issue is that she lacks the awareness to realize what she did was wrong.

But you can tell breaking off things with Kobato was heartbreaking for her. She genuinely enjoyed her time with him. She says it would be a lie if she didn't enjoy her time doing the sweets tour with him. It feels like Kobato was her first true friend.

Curious how their break-up goes and how they move forward with the new people they meet. Osanai's journey to become ordinary feels like a much more difficult journey, more so from the fact that she lacks self awareness.

Man the directing with the twists continues to excel :wow:


Jihei simply was a man who became greedy as he lost his financial stability. At first, it was just alcohol, then it was Yatagarasu. Whoever the monkey was knew how to get Jihei to depend on him. There is no sympathy for him as Yukiya mentioned. Sacrificing fellow Yatagarasu.

But who the monkey is the most interesting aspect. He clearly knows the previous True Kin'u. Him being the only one that can talk really gives you the feeling he has been around for ages. But how long are their life spans? I assume the truths that he is referring to is the outside world that only Wakamiya is aware of. Hearing the remark that Yamauchi will crumble does not leave confidence.

The directing in this show is so great. In the last few episodes it did a fantastic job at suspecting Koume to be hiding something. More and more Yukiya's gut had more truths to it. However, as his mom put it, his anger clouded him from seeing the whole truth. The one selling sagecaps was more so not Koume, but her mother. We only knew Jihei's wife left him, but beyond that, we don't know too much of his wife.

This episode adapted chapters 15+16. I mean surely they will end this at chapter 19 instead of 20. The episode did an outstanding job of giving the atmosphere in the dungeon a very despair vibe.


The bonding between Will & Wignall was great. We see that there are many similarities between Will & Wignall and their goals. Childhood friend that became a Magia Vander that they want to catch up to. Though Wignall had it worse in all honestly when you consider Will has had Rosti, Workner and the Dwarfs.

To even add the point, Will has been watching Wignall bust his butt off. That is how you can really tell that these two share a similar goal. Will's remark it is ok to make mistakes. We learn the most from our errors.

Lihanna's point of them being leftovers probably hit home since she was in the same year as Elfie. She is called Ms. Perfect, but there is someone who already reached a goal she set out for herself. Also to not blame herself for getting everything in this situation.

You could also see the effect that Will has had on Colette & Sion. Despite being hard on herself, Colette gave a pep talk to Lihanna to not doubt and blame herself. While for Sion, his instincts of using anything at his disposal and used more of his instincts. Compared to Julius who was still using search even though relying on it partially got them in this mess.

Excited to see how they animate the big fight next week.

Wistoria is looking like it could be on the path to become what Naruto attempted to and failed to be. Naruto at some point lost it's way. Hopefully this doesn't.

Finishing up the last two episodes of DanMachi S4 Pt 1, it executed Juggernaut's appearance very well. Killing adventurer after adventurer with ease. The fact that the Dungeon has a defense mechanism such as this to protect the dungeon gives more to the fact what truly exists at the bottom of the dungeon? It holds insane speed with its ability to reflect magic.

As Bell goes unconscious, he has Marie heal him as we saw she did earlier in the season. Similar to Wiene in Se this is more so in Fujino Omori's writing. While I don't love the idea that Bell barely stays alive, and he gets healed by Marie to come in fresh against Juggernaut. At the same time, it really hits home the kind of force that Juggernaut is.

Another point I look at is Jura's greed. Given that Juggernaut doesn't have a crystal, I wonder if that is the reason why taming it did not work. I guess this might be a detail in the books may or may not have. Having getting split when he thinks he is finally on top and fails is great.

Still, the situation escalates to where both Bell and the rest of his party are in a beyond awful position. Bell and Ryu are not stuck in the deep floors after both being severely injured. Both in basically unknown territory.

While for the rest of the party they now have to face the floor boss who shouldn't have awoken, but alas it has. They are now in a situation that is unknown to them as well. Dealing with this floor boss without their leader who is an immense challenge for them even if they had Bell with them.

Hadn't really played on watching anything new, but ending up checking out Solo Leveling yesterday and just finished the 1st season :ehh:. Really like the progression of the main character and the overall world they set up.

Being done with Cloverworks and by the Akebi Sailor. The Pv loos really good. It's a Romance Drama, but with some solid writing. Romance fans will like this one as its one of the best ongoign Romance manga.
