échinoderme classification hell's paradise manga panel
Third quarter is about Momonga effortlessly beating an army of zombies and two bad guys that won't matter for the rest of the season. And finally, the last quarter is about Momonga beating a brainwashed minion only because he handicapped himself even though it would've been just as effortless because he's a poorly written character. I can't even really claim that this is a pacing issue with the show itself- This is more like a pacing issue of the novels because the show covers fair amount of the novels. Remember that statement about how MMO setting is used as nothing more than an exposition tool? Yeah, it's apparently being used as a filler as well in the novels, explaining things that nobody gives a shit about to pad out the content.I really don't understand the praise for this series- Aside from simple aesthetic differences, this series has all the flaws that all generic light novels have. The MC is just yet another generic Stu protagonist that has next to no character motivation, the side characters are cardboard cutouts that constantly suck up to Momonga only because they were quite literally made to do so, and the storytelling is a complete mess where the MMO backdrop is only used as a convenient excuse to make way for exposition through Momonga's inner monologues. Instead of being from a perspective of a genuine evil villain, it's from a perspective of a generic MC that only looks like a villain with underlings who are about as laughably as evil as Akame ga Kill's antagonists. As an adaptation, it fails- And as for the series as a whole, it's just another generic fantasy novel with a gimmick element as a hook. There's literally nothing positive about the series, aside from the LN's art and character designs, which all just seem like a waste of talent and effort. Both of which are not present in the adaptation or the writer.
The spin-off series, Ple Ple Pleiades is actually far more entertaining.
Worst of all is each episode is around 15mins of runtime and the gaps filled with after-credits moe gags. Production only puts in effort for 15mins, rest are all OP/ED, pointless gacha fillers and recaps.
Obligatory Disclaimer for potential blind people, this is a preliminary review and MAL allows for one post-watching three episodes so it's perfectly valid review. I can turn out to be entirely wrong later on like I was with my Eminence in Shadow review. So don't come to my profile after consuming laxatives for the brain unless there's anything useful to say. Just put confusing emoji and move on. Reviewer’s Rating: 6 What did you think of this review?
