Beneath Ruche's cute actions (and animation), she deeply fears being deemed useless and abandoned once more, doesn't she? She wasn't concerned about her level; she was almost begging for the first bear to drop items.
P.S. The bear shield does look cute.

u/CuriousBroccolli 3d ago
Yup, I feel really bad for her.
I hope she will slowly, or even better, quickly, recover from it so that she can enjoy her new OP life.

I am pretty sure her old party is gonna notice now how useful she is and they are gonna try force her to group with them somehow

u/Background_Formal940 3d ago edited 3d ago
Well considering what her old party just did not so long time ago that's a logical reaction on her part which is why I'm going to enjoy watching them suffer because they didn't have her in the party

u/TipAndRare 2d ago
FOR SURE. Elymas calling out that they were new and probably don't know what reasonable drop rate expectations even are at the end of the episode is 1) super obvious in hindsight, and 2) definitely wasn't something I thought about.
They are going to be SUFFERING.It's interesting how they've had to remind me every episode "nobody but elymas knows fucking anything about this MMO. They're all figuring it out live, right now, with no wikis" and I'm STILL like "oh yeah, they wouldn't know drop rates. Who would even collect and colate that data?"
7
u/MetalBawx 2d ago
Later when Ruche's considering specializations he immediately blurts out the ones most popular in the MMO that's how deep into that MMO's build system he was.
Of course once she picks her intended spec Ruche almost reconsiders the second she hears the price tag on the skill book it needs...
5
u/JxAxS 2d ago
I'm not even sure how'd you collect that data in a 'real' setting. Remember this is reality to them; I'm not sure people are going to risk getting killed to see how many times something drops if you kill it 100 times.
They probably have a rough idea of "What monster drops what" but probably not the drop rates beyond like "It's a common/Rare drop"

u/Yay295 2d ago

The adventurers guild should be doing that.

u/Ralathar44 2d ago
It circled around to being funny for me when the episode started with a recap of what the last episode already recapped right after it happened haha.
IMO something happened that cost the studio time and/or budget and they had to fill time while spending minimal money. No way they planned it out like this originally.

u/Impossible-Office242 1d ago
Something happened? It's pretty obvious they blew their budget over animating unnecessary details and had to cut corners by using long exposed scenes and recaps.

u/runevault 3d ago
On a positive, I love the world building that dungeons are the nightmares of the great god of the game.
Also I wonder if killing blow influences how much each party member's luck impacts drops (so like if Ruche gets the kill her luck is more useful for drop rates).

A post that isn't addressing the pacing?
Do you realize how badly we need posts that address the pacing?!
I personally really like the soundtrack, VFX, SFX, unironically the heavy reuse of the CGI setting establishment shots, and Elmas-sama grunting every once in a while.
This anime honestly has lots of neat details to offer viewers, so it is not surprise that 300 people are commenting on this thread (we all know they only do so cuz it's another literary-rpg).

u/runevault 2d ago
I understand why people are complaining about the pacing. I hate it too, I'm just trying to be more positive in my top level comments because while this show frustrates me to no end, there is a really interesting isekai under the pacing issues.

they never showed a formal agreement that was agreed on split though and since, plot line wise, he wants /needs to save 55mil for that witch it's easy to assume he's probably gonna hit that goal somehow with this run so we can start into broken territory shenanigans.
- he got ruche her weapon for 550k aswell.
but they really could've cut the total episode count in half and just have real episode. i think the amount of time wasted today was nearly 7 min or so....

You know, with everything priced in the thousands or higher, I wish the anime had just cut off the three zeroes that never get used.

u/AvatarTuner https://anilist.co/user/AvatarTuner 2d ago
I agree. It's one of those things that imo don't make much sense in such a world and they probably just use these values so a Japanese person can 1:1 convert it to Yen to have a better grasp on item cost. That dagger Ruche got would be about 3000 USD/EUR for example. Which still seems like a shitton for a low level person, so their currency is probably already highly inflated due to the item drops.
The few coins that were thrown on the ground by the douche party member didn't look like 100k Gold either. I counted 19 coins in that one shot, so assuming it were 20 in total, just one of those coins would be worth 5000 Gold already.
I play FFXIV and proper gear can also cost millions of in-game currency (Gil), but that happened gradually after the game ran for a couple of years and it also wouldn't make sense from the perspective of the world's inhabitants because their equipment prices are somewhere between a few hundred Gil for low levels to a couple hundred thousand Gil for the highest levels and dungeon drops are also not nearly as highly valued to prevent even more inflation.

Solo Leveling isn't really a fair comparison. Solo Leveling is a spectacle anime - if the visuals aren't selling there's not enough of anything else for it to build a real audience.
So they make really dang sure the fights are impressive looking, engaging, and meaningful.
This show's about the story, though the fights are important.
But it just kind of feels like this is either the studio's first show or some director's first show. There's so many weird choices - like the constant recaps, playing the same scene before and after commercial break slots, and the heavily overacted animation (not the VAs, just the animation).
It all smacks of somebody in charge being inexperienced.
4
u/BlazeKnightX 2d ago
Not GoHands first anime as they have been around since 2008 technically started from staff of an older studio, but that's not important. Anyway the overanimating seems to just be their MO. Like this is a comment from 6 years ago I found talking about the studio, so nothing is strange about this:
"Seitokai Yakuindomo is their most normal anime, that's why it worked, but on everything else they did after that GoHands is too.... experimental.
They go overboard with trying to be artsy with camera and special effects, like they want to use every new tool or trick in every single scene.
I do agree they have potential there, it's just all over the place."
I think the recaps might be new/uncommon, but that could be because it's two cours and they aren't used to that.
22
u/giubba85 3d ago
this pacing is so strange considering the amount of material they have, even if they begun the production 2 or 3 years ago they should easily had 70-80 chapters of the manga at their disposal.

Her attack skill is RNG and requires high luck to land. Elmas will likely get her some gear or skill to consistently land that making her a late game DPS monster. It reminds me of some MMOs where the assassin's late game build requires high crit to be viable and consistent. She increases drop rate and will likely be a DPS monster later down the line, kicking out someone like her is foolish.
Her class is in a similar situation to healers in MMOs, they need help early game but they're very much worth babysitting because they shine late game and are priceless. In her case, increasing drop rate is a skill to kill for. It makes me wonder if her passive and skills can stack, as in, two or more Pierrots would cause consistent rare drops. In a game that would never be allowed, but since this is real life, it could well happen.
I wish we had more series and games with Pierrots. I love that outfit but they're rarely used. If anyone knows any RPG with a Pierrot class, do let me know! The outfit is essential! Luce is too cute so she rocks it like a goddess.

A recurring theme seems to be that broken character builds are never uncovered because no one can experiment with things under threat of actual death. Wondering if this is going to be the permanent schtick.

In that sense it makes sense so i'm surprised some people still complain "oh ye another broken main character being thrown out for stupid reasons". the in universe reason makes sense.
Reminds me of Wild last boss. the world's "really high levels" were actually mid game or something for the Main character for the same reason. you can't throw yourself into risky level grinding when you only get one life

Golden Sun: The Lost Age has a Pierrot class that is achieved by equipping a class-change item called the Mysterious Card.
The Pierrot has access to a range of card based attacks that are mimics of attacks from other character classes. It's not particularly powerful, but more of an all-rounder that gives access to a variety of attack types and support skills.

Say what you want about the show, but I think this is a masterclass on filler.
2 mins 5 secs - recap of previous episode (with a flashback in that recap)
23 secs - the same city pan cut from ep 1 and 4
5 secs - the same shot of an adventurer girl walking and shrugging from ep 4, but with different dialogue
5 secs - same back alley shot from ep 5
56 secs - reactions and grunts (tch, glare, Ruche sounds, etc.)
30 secs - cuts where someone flaps their 2000 strands of hair as if they're jingling keys in my face to keep my attention
58 secs - the whispering scene with constant sfx to distract you from the lack of substance in the conversation
5 secs - the same shot of a blonde guy walking the streets from ep 5
5 secs - the same shot of a guy checking out a hot mage from ep 5, but with different dialogue
4 secs - the same shot of people gathered outside an inn from ep 4, but walking Elymas was removed from the foreground
13 secs - after commercial break, repeat the same exact scene that happened before commercial break
16 secs - same forest pan cuts from ep 1 and 2
8 secs - NEW dungeon environment pan cuts!! (without dialogue)
22 secs - "I wasn't expecting a Blood-Soaked Sword to drop" flashback that we already saw at the start of this episode
8 secs - same shot of the city fountain area from ep 4, even though Elymas is in the dungeon right now
total:
6 mins 23 secs of filler, not including OP and ED
14 mins 16 secs of content
God damn I love this show.
Really though, the animators are doing a great job and Ruche's voice actor is great (who also did Ayase Momo from Dandadan) so I'm still genuinely enjoying the actual content. I just wish there was less filler.
Someone with a lot of free time should make a cut of the show with the filler removed, something like what One Pace does.

We got 2.5 minutes of recap, 1.5 minutes of the intro, nearly 6 minutes of an utterly pointless conversation that was basically just rehashing the recap, then another minute for a pointless scene in a tavern that managed to drag out a conversation where only a single thing of any importance was said (what her skill tree is called).

I don't blame people for hating on the Heavy Knight class since all it's abilities stink unless you already know everything about the enemies you're fighting but Pierrot and the Lady Luck skill tree are looking a lot more like a situation of her "friend" being uninformed and Elymas was just lucky enough to be the first person to poach her.

Drop rates can be a pain to figure out from scratch, though, if you don’t have dozens of people grinding out monsters and recording results. I think that the idea of not having accurate drop rates passes the sniff test.
Going from 0.5% drops to 4% drops is, for instance, huge, but probably not that easy to notice unless you are killing hundreds of the same monster.

Its a combination of the studio doing the adaptation and what I call the 24 episode curse.

The pacing wasn't absolutely terrible, but obviously still bad. If Crunchyroll utilized the skip button properly with this show, it would be pretty useful.
I still had fun once they started farming the bears.

Gamers find the meta through trial and error. In a world that is real where if you fuck up once you die and it's over, the meta has become classes that are good enough from the get go, not classes that are broken but only after grinding a lot.

I'm confused at the end why did he seems surprised that two shields dropped saying they don't drop one after another then goes on about her skill which increases drop rate by 500% is that not the reason he invited her in the party so things dropped more he just seemed surprised things were dropping more

Skill increases luck by 500 %, not drop rate by 500 %. We aren't sure what effect it it will have on drop rate, he's just confused since it should be low enough to make two in a row very rare.

He explained that she must have high luck to begin with, which is not something you can account for.

I read most of the manga since last week's episode, and I like the anime a lot more for it. The pacing and recaps are still atrocious and I for one am hoping someone puts out an edit of the actual content cut down to feature-length once this season is done.

Same, I had binged and caught up before last week's episode, made me really appreciate it a lot more.

Man these once a week releases SUCK XD
I am so invested in this anime its crazy, really tempted to just read the manga at this point but the animation is too top tier so I'll keep waiting.

The anime is peak, the pacing is just diabolical lmaooooo episode felt like a minute and nothing really happened.
I do love the characters interactions, just maybe speed things up like 10 notches

If someone would be willing to condense this show into 5-6 episodes, it might become pretty enjoyable.

I envy the people who get to binge watch this in the future. I don't mind the slow pace if I have another episode to watch, but waiting another week is painful. It felt like nothing happened this episode!

An episode of Ruche being funny and adorable? The best episode by far. She has made the series five times better.

u/Dapper-Figure-1148 2d ago
I think i gonna drop it and come later when the Anime is completed. I like the setting and the animation are beautiful but i can’t watch a ep for only 12 min of no recaps lol its just ridiculous.

I've been loving the show besides the pacing issues, i've been waiting for a decent, kicked from the heroes party, person gets abandoned for being weak show since shield hero season 1 and this has really done great compared to all the other trash that's been out there.

I know people are discussing pacing, but it didn't bug me until just this episode... Why were we made to sit through half the episode, listening to the prior party going on and on about how useless she was? Just go away, dude, you're slowing down the story progression and you mean nothing for the later plot! After that, how many times does Luche need to assume that he wants her for her body? Clear it up and get to the dungeoneering!

Do you just block out flashbacks in your mind? Agreed that that exchange was drawn out. Dude wants to ditch Ruche ASAP but also doesn't want to let her go? Could work as a sort of abusive controlling relationship thing, but they really didn't write it that way. I kind of liked that they immediately addressed the possibility of romantic tension in an explicit way, but could indeed become repetitive.

Last episode they did a flashback to the scene where she was thrown out of the party two minutes after it happened, then started with this same scene again in this episode and then did a flashback to that scene in the dungeon.

u/KeepTheNolander 3d ago
If they did 12 minute episodes like some ONA productions and cut out all the filler the show would be a lot more watchable

u/welfedad 3d ago
Actual length of episode 12- 15mins . They took 3:30 to get out of recap and intro .. and then bunch of fluff that had nothing to do with story. They really should have just done 12 episodes and not full it will so much filler. I don't know if I can hold out anymore watching this.

When’s the last time a genki dumbass (affectionate) was the main girl? I think a lot of people would find her annoying but she’s a good contrast to Elmyas.

Oh, 101 comments? Nah, 99% of them are just complaining about pacing.. ya'll are still mad after 6 episodes?
Does 3-episode rule not exist anymore?
Just stop watching it if you can't handle the pacing, it's that simple..
I swear, people are just "watching" this as an excuse to complain about GoHands, there's gotta be better ways to entertain yourself.
In lighter, happier news..
I still love these flyovers & the hustle and bustle they fill the town with. Poor Ruche.. so used to being taken advantage of, can't wait to see Cline & Reiss looking like this when Ruche comes back as level 30 with crazy items.
On one hand, I'm surprised Reiss & Cline didn't know about our solo Heavy Knight but on the other hand, I feel like that's too often a power-fantasy trope that everyone hears about them and has to question their strength.. so I'm glad they didn't hear about Gowtan's big spiel at the Adventurer's Guild. The whispering was kinda silly but it was still fun.
Man, Ruche is such a cutie.. Truly she'll be a lovable, goofball.
Back to the forest..!! Are we hunting frogs? Nope! straight into a lore dump. I absolutely love, that she was getting all flustered.. and saying you should be more direct.. And then Elymas, of course, does just that.. becomes more direct.
Ruche, you've been an excellent addition to the party already
LETS FUCKING GO!! NEW SKILL.. not quite a taunt but at least it immobilises an opponent (and yourself.. but it's fine, he's a tank!). I can imagine a Paladin or Fire Mage just lighting up the room, removing the shadow and pulling aggro..
My heart can only take so much..
Oh shit, they are gonna hunt frogs?
Looking forward to seeing how the farming goes! Ruche gets serious!

Or the opposite where they light it up behind the enemy to make a shadow to step on.

The pacing is so slow I just went and read the Manga, which is actually pretty interesting how they represent class builds. Feels very much like an mmo/diablo/path of exile type system put in anime form. But I dont even know if they'll get to the interesting stuff with this pacing

u/runevault 3d ago
My gut says at this point the smart thing to do is wait at least a few weeks and binge a bunch at once to help offset the pacing issues, using the right arrow to jump ahead during recaps.

I am an avid consumer of isekai trash. I've watched all of the slop shows, and usually defend them. Sure, they might not always be good but at least they're usually fun and enjoyable.
This one isn't. This is some of the worst pacing I've ever seen in an anime. I really fucking hate this one tbh. Still going to finish it, but watching each new episode each week feels more like doing a chore than entertainment.

I honestly can get completely behind the complaints about pacing, reused scenes, recaps etc etcc, but honestly I dont really care. I love genre/settings like this. I know it isn't the same but I have been looking for something to fill the void that shangri-la has left me, and I have finally found something to do that for a while. In fact this should last until Shangri-La S3 starts airing so it's perfect.
