7·2 days agoThe opening sequence is also excellent. It’s packed with references to various cultural works (Spiderman, LotR, Nirvana, and a bunch of others), and I probably didn’t even catch half of them.
the ones I recognized:
Footlose

Leon The Professional

Dumb&Dumber



Trainspotting




Nirvana NevermindWas wrong here. It was Trainspotting, which also fits better with the film setting.

The Usual Suspects



Breakfast Club


The Evil Dead (maybe, its a reach)


Lord of the Rings


Fight Club






Resident Evil Extinction


Spiderman 3


Pulp Fiction



Wednesday Adams

Saturday Night Feaver

Fallen Angels


A Better Tomorrow


Chinatown


Conclave


Project A


Ready of Not


Blade Runner

Coffeee and Cigarettes

Flashdance

Stand by Me

The King of Comedy

The Yellow Handkerchief

Pierrot le Fou

Night On Earth

Farewell Friend

Blue Spring

Either way, anime YouTuber will have a field day with this one. I can’t wait to see a side by side of the entire opening with the original shots.
edit: thanks to the internet sleuths I have some reference material as well and references that I missed.
Still so many scenes missing…

2·4 days agoIt sucks that they skipped all of Luciana’s hard work paying off and surprising her friends with this:

In the light novel there Luciana’s friends are stunned by the change since their last time replaying basically the same gag we’ve seen this episode 2 times already, but I think that tea party important to show the relationship those 3 girls have. The anime points out that the Rudelbergs are indebted to those two families who helped them out. But the LN goes out of its way to show that those two girls aren’t looking down on Luciana and are genuinely happy that her living circumstances has improved so much even though everyone else in noble society is looking down and shunning her. I feel that them being real friends is lost in the anime by skipping this scene.

3·11 days agoThe pilot was a bit strange and out of order. They’re basically pulling a Bookworm where they show off something from later on to show off fan favorite Luciana early on instead of going in order, just like Bookworm did with Ferdinand. I wonder how this episode felt to anime-only watchers. But one thing is clear: Maid-Magic truly is the most powerful magic there is.






This gives me deja vu, but I’ve checked and I haven’t read the light novel. But I swear I’ve seen the character design of the lizard girl before and the patrol of rescue adventurers as well.
