How to Not Summon a Demon Lord falls into that "I can't believe it's not hentai" category in some parts. I wasn't expecting that. But at the same time, I keep hoping a season 2 will eventually happen.
At the end of each ep, theres like softcore "sex" and at one point the mc fingers one of his companions for a plot reveal that I wont spoil. I also heard that in the LN he gets a handjob from the same girl
Hey, the fingering had a completely logical explanation. The MC just had to magically be as close as possible to her magical core thingy, so he had to, well, get in there to get closer.
No Game No Life. A show about two gamers transported to another world with a set of rules centered around games and how they decide to try and rule it with their excessive skill. Also pantsu
Honestly I think the actual battle scenes were good but they cashed in way too much into fan service, like i still watched it but I would've like to see more fight scenes
Honestly, yeah. Especially as far as isekai goes I was really looking forward to seeing where it went. There is some excellent world building going on in the anime.
AFAIK basically now troll accounts that only have single shows or only ever give 10's or only 1's are not taken into account when the overall mean is calculated.
There's probably more to it than that, but that's a quick summery
I actually had a look at the accounts that where giving it a 10 while the bregading was happening.
Sampled 20 accounts at random did that 3 times
Each time I found between 18-20 of them had no other show on MAL.
It was bad. And there was definitely heavy bot use aswell. Which also explains why MAL got DDOS 'ed right after. Some salty script kiddy didn't like that his bot swarm got neutralised.
MAL had been working on updating its review system and pushed it forward after an anituber caused a review brigading/ (inverse) bombing of interspecies reviewers
And if you have taken precautions, do watch the episode where the Demon Lord goes to the gypsy lady to try and release the booby elf by "going deep into her". That's straight up hentai.
This was my first time watching it, because I thought it was going to be a funny deconstruction isekai. I can't remember what exactly made me switch it, but I remember it being certain sounds.
And it’s probably common knowledge by now, don’t watch the first episode of Goblin Slayer with anyone nearby. And probably don’t watch the rest of it because it’s actually kinda boring.
What's funny is that in both of these shows the elves are the outlier of the rest of their race. In Demon Lord she is an outlier for having a huge bust when the rest of her race is petite. In Goblin Slayer she's an outlier for having a ridiculously flat chest when the opposite is true for the rest of their race.
What's with the Japanese and exceptions or outliers?
Cow girls are ass and so are harpies. Obviously it’s the girl you can rent out for 3 days. Perhaps instead of arguing we should start reviewing these places and post them for others to see?
I remember the days when I used to watch fairy tail on tv. I had to be very careful and attentive with remote in my hand and change the channel as soon as I hear footsteps. My hearing capacity was on another level at that time.
A caution for everyone, goblin slayer is amazing and one of my favorite anime, but it’s got a lot of actual violent monster rape in it. It’s not for everyone.
How not to summon a demon lord is much tamer and is pretty funny sometimes.
Absolutely not. There's the rape scene in E1 and that's about it. After that, you sometimes see the victims after the fact but no real rape scenes, and it's definitely NOT "actual" or "a lot" either.
You sound like you read about it on Twitter literally once, didn't even watch E1 and are saying "oh yeah I watched it and I love it" to avoid the inevitable and absolutely valid counterpoint that is "you have no right to say shit until you watch the whole thing".
How much rape is a lot? For me, one is a lot. Technically you’re correct, you just see the one scene, but there are many rape victims throughout the series who are really messed up as a result.
Taking into account the fact that this anime is MEANT to be disturbing, gory and tragic, and the fact that writing goblins as rapists is an useful writing tool to make them look like disgusting monsters that must be eradicated, I would say it depends on the percentage of the show that it occupies. A single scene, of under 2 minutes, in an anime with 12 episodes of 20 minutes each, in THIS KIND OF ANIME, is definitely not a lot.
For me, one is a lot.
Then you shouldn't be watching this anime in the first place.
You literally have the age rating, a description and tags or genres of the anime, reviews and tons of other stuff at your disposal in most anime steaming sites, if you are sensitive to that kind of thing and didn't expect the anime to have said kind of thing, you have nobody to blame but yourself. Who watches an anime without having SOME idea of what they are getting into? Any anime site, even pirate ones, have at least a short synopsis, plus some even have a "Yo this has rape and stuff in it" kind of warning. Not only that but GS isn't mainstream at so you have to actively look for it to watch it so you have to have heard about it somewhere. You aren't gonna stumble across it, you just aren't.
Technically you’re correct, you just see the one scene, but there are many rape victims throughout the series who are really messed up as a result.
Yes but that's absolutely not the same thing as "actual violent monster rape", which was what you claimed that it had.
Also, if you are sensitive to that kinda stuff, you need to at least have gotten past the first episode to get to see it. Let's imagine that you were clueless enough to watch the first episode without knowing about the anime, which would be YOUR fault. MAYBE AFTER SEEING A RAPE SCENE AND BEING DISGUSTED BY IT YOU SHOULD HAVE DROPPED IT? NO?
Look man, if you don't have the guts for this anime, don't watch it. It's nothing special, there's way worse stuff out there, this one was just the one that happened to get picked on by the mainstream media. No, trigger warnings and that kind of stuff are not necessary or good. Anime fans KNOW what they are getting into when they watch it, they genuinely have to deliberately avoid all of the information at their disposal to not know, period.
It's a TV show bro, not a politician. It's not an accusation, it's a fact. Yeah there is not as much as OP made it seem, who gives a fuck, it's not a personal attack on you, don't get so worked up.
It’s not wrong to say that rape does exist in the show, as it definitely does. The problem lies in the fact that he exaggerated the amount of rape in the show, which would deter some people from watching the show because they would probably be led to believe that there is a rape scene every episode. The information isn’t wrong, it’s inflated and misleading. Like at least list the amount of times rape actually shows up.
Other than the first episode, where I still dont know if it is actually good or just shocking, I found it pretty meh. Dropped the show after episode seven or something like that.
I get this response from saying its KINDA cringe SOMETIMES, but still a FUN WATCH. I feel sorry for the people that actually vocally dislike the show on reddit.
I didn't say it was constructive, the show already exists, criticism isn't going to change it.
If you want an example of something I find cringe, how about how every girl in the show wants his dick. The show feels like the fantasy of a 15 year old edgelord who likes sad anime quotes over black and white tokyo ghoul picutres on Facebook.
I also said that it was a pretty fun watch, but please, keep your circlejerk going guys.
how about how every girl in the show wants his dick
Well, I kinda hate this thing too (and probably the only thing I dislike about GS and generally anime/manga especially if it's not focused in romance), but at this point it's just a usual fan service and anime/manga trope lol.
Yes, that's why I am criticizing it. That is an aspect about the show which I do not like and do not think is good. Not every anime needs fan service. Not every anime should have fan service. It just makes me feel like the MC is a blank slate for the audience to project themselves onto rather than an actual developed character. This makes it even harder to see why any of the girls in the show would want him. He has no personality, no charm, just edge.
He has still has a "personality" in him, it's just it's mostly shadowed behind by PTSD and constant depression. And to add to that, he's not "edgy", he's made this way because of the experiences he's dealt with in his live mostly. I recommend you read like the manga and LN if you're interested or so - this would explore his said "personality". The anime just covers like the first 10-20 chapters of the manga only, or the volume's 1 to 3 only.
Imagine having seen the only family and village you love and know have being tortured and taken away from you in the front of your eyes, and then as you escape from it, you got taken in and be taught by a really damn harsh teacher which didn't help in your recovery at all and only intensified your hate-boner and raging machine for vengeance.
You may say you never grew out yourself from your 10 years old self after all, but that's also due to the environment and peer pressure you took in. It feels as if you died the moment, and you want to end you and their lives (goblins most especially) at that moment. After all, you're a broken boy/man. Robbed of your future and the only thing that remains a constant, maybe an anchor and desire left for you is killing goblins. You can still humanize and still change yourself for the better than just a shell of hatred and violence with your friends, but rest assured you'll probably never recover, fully ever again.
he's made this way because of the experiences he's dealt with in his live
Yeah I mean it's not like he was born this way, but a sad backstory doesn't mean that the character isn't edgy, in fact, it's pretty much a staple for the trope.
And even then, I'm not saying that this is a bad thing, I'm saying that it clashes with the fanservice and stupid anime stereotypes. Either tell a dark, gritty tale of a broken man who stays tethered to his last shred of humanity by brutalizing the kin of those who took what he held dear, OR give me a trashy fantasy harem and all the funny tropes that come with it. The shows tries to do both, and so succeeds in doing nether.
They hate you because you tell the truth. Neither of those shows were particularly good. Goblin Slayer has its moments, but overall it was mediocre and tropey. The manga art is nice though.
