Let's do Chihayafuru while we all wait okay lets start
Anno
Okey dokes
月
hi anime! i'll join you after that
Anno
Sounds good. You've got about twenty minutes before we're done with Chihayafuru
Anno
The manga for Chihayafuru's been serialized since December 2007, so it's been running for close to twelve years now. The mangaka seems to think they'll be done
Anno
writing it later this year though. I wonder how much of the manga they'll have adapted by the time this season's done. And if they could finish it in a fourth season.
Or maybe even the reason they're doing this weird dual-episode release is because they want to time the final episode of the anime with the final chapters of the manga and need the extra episodes to do so.
Oh yeah we didn't put together a list. I'd expect we'll close on Ore wo Suki at least. Dunno what Rika wants to fill the other three slots with though.
This is looking like it's gonna be a whole episode-long flashback. It's been a good flashback so I'm not complaining just remarking. Does make for a long flashback though.
月
is she gonna eat their horses
Anno
She's gonna DRAGONMODE these petty losers.
Anno
Joanna's talking pretty big for someone that got totally thrashed by Fafnir last time.
i wonder if we'll get into this magic business today
i guess she just ends up being a sorcerer surrounded in books and stuff
Anno
BOOKS
Anno
>>767586 We've seen inklings of her magic but no actual acts yet. I think one of those will be important for getting noticed by whoever the priest guy who's always narrating stuff works for.
Though in one of the PVs Main did spoil for us that there's something regarding her shampoo and a travelling merchant that triggers things too. So those are probably the two conditions before things really start happening.
Anno
Lutz looks a bit dweeby with his hair flatter like that.
Anno
Oh speak of the devil. Guess this is the aforementioned merchant.
She knows a lot I don't think I'd know that much if I got isekaied
Anno
Well she was a hardcore book nerd in her past life. Sounds like she just soaked up information as she read books.
I still think she needs to be careful as a six-year-old how much she "invents" or "discovers" because of her previous knowledge.
Anno
These are some good, determined kids.
月
what good fortune to have those connections
Anno
Yeah, it's probably a pretty slim chance realistically, that a town gate guardsman would know a professional merchant. Especially one that looks as successful as this guy.
Anno
The paper press would probably be the hardest part of this paper-making process. You'd probably need some heavy weights or metalcraft to make an operable press.
月
well a gatekeeper might be the one dealing with travelers, so it's not impossible
that was a good bit of groundedness that came from the explanation to lutz though, about how being a traveling merchant would only serve as means to an end he already has available -- citizenship
Anno
Yeah, the merchant didn't really romanticize the life of being a travelling merchant. Though he seems pretty discerning; I bet he already figured Lutz had some romantic idea in his head about it. So giving him that speech about the hardships and somewhat meaninglessness of engaging in it was a smart decision.
Anno
Main could use someone with merchant acumen though. She comes up with these great ideas but comes to a standstill when she needs to purchase resources she can't get herself. Marketing her "inventions" to get money to progress towards her ideal goal of being able to make books just seems straightforward.
月
hahaha he was pretty eager to get her out of there
>>767601 Something like shampoo turning her hair from its dull unwashed state to a beautiful sheen would definitely revitalize your adoration for someone's physical beauty I bet.
月
that all looks like a lot of fun crafting is really fun
Anno
Looks like her frailty isn't something particularly unique. If he's so certain she's gonna die from it I wonder what the way of curing her of it will be.
Well the one person Joro's always unerringly cared for was Sun-chan. It's pretty in-line for him to act infuriated with her because she messed with him.
月
that was pretty rough
Anno
It'll be nice to see our main heroine all dressed up.
I wonder if she will. She'll get a lot of attention if she oes. does
Anno
Yeah but I bet no one will recognize her. They'll all be like "Who is that girl, what grade is she in, does she even go to our school?" No one will realize it's the quiet librarian girl.
Anno
Hah hah It's a nice dress but what's with those little twintails she's got.
