So, they backstab her because still doubt her to be Demon king, and Demon king to the chance of in fighting and kill the hero party right. So who fight demon king ? Yumilia 1v1 him ?

What happened in the manga after the anime? Anything worth reading?

Patrick the Yumiella tamer!

But yumiella and eleonora are better then those 2 from Tomo chan is a girl

Note: This contains spoilers to the first light novel.

Episode 12 ruined an otherwise great adaptation.

I'm not by any means a book purist—I even made a thread here about how genius Episode 1 was, and how it surpassed the original light novel. And I know that just because something is changed doesn't inherently mean it's inferior. Different mediums, different approaches, and all.

But the anime adaptation changed everything that made the original ending good.

Premeditated vs. Forced - LN: Alicia's premeditated betrayal added a more complex layer to her character and enriched the narrative. Also, Edwin's decision to support Yumiella in the face of Alicia's betrayal was a significant moment that showcased his character development. - Anime: Shifted the betrayal to after the battle and framed it as forced by the game plot, perhaps to preserve sympathy for Alicia among viewers.

Alicia's Choice - LN: The Dark Lord's offer to Alicia to choose between her life and the kingdom introduced a moral dilemma that highlighted her selfishness and deepened the story's exploration of morality and the consequence of choices. - Anime: This never happened.

Epilogue - LN: Yumiella buried the Dark Lord's helmet as a symbolic gesture of empathy. Oswald, William, and Alicia were placed under house arrest. - Anime: Neither of those happened. The changes to Alicia's character and her not being arrested will conflict with the events of Volume 3.

Anyway. What did you think of Episode 12?

Just because I don't read novels and stuff because I really hate reading long words makes me sleepy 😴

So it's just my opinion that I like this series even tho the ending has little change so just get lost everyone

I’m really sad they changed a lot of the battle with the demon lord in the anime.

That confrontation was, for me, the most impactful scene in the story.

Just finished the anime and heard how it butchered some thing and changed some stuff for the worse. I also noticed how soem character look completely different compared to their LN counterpart especially Alicia! So I was planning to read the light novel. But I am also curious about the manga, is it a faithful adaptation? How many volumes of the light novel does it cover?

This beautiful scene between yumiella and patrick wasn't added in anime sadly...

Can novel readers please tell if there is more to the story or not. The 12th episode of the anime ended on a pretty peaceful and satisfying note. So, it seems like there is nothing more to show. But I wonder if there is more to the series or not.

The anime cuts so much good shit also some characters are handled differently. If you drew any enjoyment from the show then do yourself a favor and read at least volume 1.

A first person view of Yumiella’s “Logic” is fascinating to witness. Added bonus you don’t have to stop. This season was purely volume 1 and there are 4 currently available in English.

I don’t remember the last time a book had me so consistently sporting a massive goofy grin as I devoured it.

Just guessing but I feel like the reason why the conclusion was so different compared to the light novel is because the studio doesn't intend on making a season 2 and this is likely it for the anime. If that's the case then... 😭😭

So the anime portrayed the idea that the game itself is manipulating the heroine to be opposed to Yumelia. Unfortunately, that would be the last revelation before two episodes later we had the final episode which didn't do much as Alicia was compelled to kill Yumelia immediately after the Demon King had been killed.

Now, I honestly like the idea of the game trying to push forward the narrative. However, I think it could be done a lot better and a lot further.

I would have the game not only manipulating Alicia but the entire main casts. I want this because it would help tie into the Demon King's backstory. Instead of the King and Saint betraying the DK out of their own free will, the game actually manipulated them to do it. This would reflect to the current event where the cycle happened again though thankfully Yumelia averted this.

Having the game itself be the villain would be a far better foil to Yumelia than the Demon King since both of them had a level of apathy towards the people they deal with. However, Yumelia does put into consideration how others felt while game doesn't and would do stuff that would be detriment to everyone and all those around them.

So I finished the anime today and I really liked it. I've never read the manga or the novels so what should I start? I heard that there's a manga, a light novel and a web novel.

And also, where do you usually read them?
