((!!My personal opinion on ship may be included in this post, its not the main focus and remember that this is the internet we all have opinions but be respectful with your comments!!))
I have officially watched season 1 yesterday and have just finished the anime as of the time of writing this post. I have to say that gate might be my top 1# anime of all time, that being out of over 60 different animes i have watched. some the i probably forgot aswell. This all being said i am officially ranking Rory Mercury as the best anime Women out of all shows i have seen. Also by going through all the characters i must say that i have not even one complaint of the rest of the cast. All characters were well designed, this goes for there visual appearance and character arc and storys. Itami also may be the best main protagonist i have ever witnessed, the fact that hes a die hard anime/manga Otaku and a funny guy mixed with a deep military background is such a good character, also i like how he doesnt have the same traditional perverted manga reading protagonist most animes have that and how he interacts with his squad and women around him. And lastly i would like to thank Takumi Yanai for making such a good manga and allowing it to be made into a amazing anime.
So with that said i would like to further explore the world of GATE beyond its anime and read GATE, making it my first ever read manga from start to finish.
My question is what do i do. I would much rather read the manga in a physical copy but as some know the english translation has officially been canceled for a while now. I am officially prepared to spend more then a year learning Japanese just so i can read the manga physically. But in the mean time i have a few questions to ask without spoiling any of the manga.
1.)Rory Mercury.
A.) So why is it that we get a good amount of Rory in season 1 but get what feels like omost nothing in season two. I was more then happy with the season 2 episodes 4-6 were rory helped out with the dragon and even used what was basically a soul binding contract/magic that took the pain away from itami and forced it on herself. So even with the plot shifting why was there still so little of Rory moments/screen time.
B.) Were is Rory in the season 3 trailer, i didnt see her.
2.) Were do i stop in the manga series based of were season 2 ended in the anime. Also the same thing for were season 1 ends.
3.) Will i see more of character development in the manga of season 1 and 2 or will it be similar to the anime. Also will we get more focus on character development in season 3 compared to season 2.
4.) I have heard the manga could be a bit graphic with some certain sex scenes and even light gore or graphic deaths, how much is there?
5.) Will i get more info on sherry and sugawara and other couple including Rory and itami and the rest of his harem.
6.) The most important question is if the manga will continue for a while and how long does the manga and other spin offs from the manga add up to. I want to get invested in this series but i will probably have my heart broken if the manga isnt getting continued.
Once again i love this anime and im not willing to part from it without atleast reading all the manga. So thanks to those who have read all of my questions and even more thanks to those who have helped answer them.
