While in the manga, he had a plan to stab himself in the donated organ to ruin it. He also contacted his friend to make sure he would be there in a few. He was desperate and the plan only had 1 winning outcome, but what Kind of retard thinks up and follows through on a lose-lose scenario? I just hate them dumbing down characters.

      @@joseagustincuesta ah... see while the LN started publishing in 2015, the webnovel was written back in 2009, and when SAO hit, and interest in japanese light novels/web novels spiked stateside, this was one of the first finished web novels translated, so it gathered a pretty big fanbase (for the web novel), of course it existed basically in a vacuum with slowly translated SAO books and overlord books to hold people over, so while it was mediocrity personified, it still managed to gather a moderately sizable fanbase. I am not ashamed to say, I was one of those morons enjoying the heck out of the webnovel. not because it was well written, but because it was pure wish fulfillment on a scale I had never experienced before. It was so novel an experience I just had to finish the story, sort of like watching a nascar crash. Nascar might be boring as all heck, but sometimes you've got nothing better to do on a sunday afternoon, except watch cars turn left 2000 times, until one of them blows a tire and takes out half the field. It's horrible and fascinating on such a level you forget you just wasted 3 hours watching a boring car race and get that momentary thrill at the disaster spread out all over the track. That was Arifureta to me. In japan it's like the 20'th ranked light novel (by sales) so it has some readers.
      So I'm sure this anime was anticipated by quite a few people. That's what makes this train-wreck all the more hilarious. No one who read Arifureta was expecting more then a popcorn munching brainless romp, at it's best. I don't think anyone was expecting Berserk (new) from this team. Hilariously terrible.

      In terms of soruce content, arifureta is mediocre throughout (up to most recent volume), whereas shield hero starts mediocre, gets mildly interesting, and then plummets into retarded isekai trash with one of the worst endings of any isekai trash novels. Slime also goes to complete shit in the web novel. In the end, they're all very similar to eachother in the tropes, conflicts, development, et cetera. Shield hero just happened to do it better in the anime, most likely due to production problems. The explanations and shield evolution system is completely contrived and nonsensical, just as much as his powers are in this series. Which is to say there's barely any explanation, he just has convenient powers at convenient times. Shield hero had better production value (most likely, as digibro mentions, due to production issues with Arifureta), but in terms of actual plot and story telling they're not that far off.

It just goes half an inch in and kills a Bear that’s supposed to be scarier than anything seen before. It’s an insult to the bear and the gun, and I hate it.

      I don't mind it in goblin slayer, since it literally is DnD. I don't have too many problems with shield hero (except off brand chocobos and the always stupid "human/animal hybrid that are so very much not human, also it's like every animal. so half whale/half humans are the same race as half duck/half humans, but humans are just different, also racism as seen by children")

    I feel like by this point my entire relationship with anime has become a cycle of checking on a couple of ani-tubers every three months to see if Isekai still exists, realizing that Isekai still exists, and deleting all ties to the medium from my brain until the cycle recurses. The persistence of the genre has broken down my ability to form meaningful chronological memories of its members. It seems like goblin slayer and shield hero and the slime one were all released at the same amorphous instant of time, which is only defined as coming after the similarly nebulous era in which re:Zero and Konosuba briefly existed. SAO happened at some point. Maybe it's still happening? I don't fucking know. I just want to listen to Digi complain about some bullshit.

    Because it's VRYBAD, I fell obliged to light out all the grey zone stuff the anime don't explain :
    - he spend smthg like a week to tens day experiencing phantom pain from his missing limb AND the everlasting hunger because the Holly stone keep it alive while he's still buried in his hideout, hence why he resort to consume monster meat and he's almost driven insane (wishing to die but in the same time be reluctant to let himself die for real)
    - he trap a pack of two-tail wolf (4 in total, where are the two others actually), in the walls of the cave and pitfall, which is actually a use for transmutation which has never been thought of in the first place by the resident of tortus (don't ask me why, my best guess is that they're actually dumb af, but it could be because Synergist is supposed to be a crafting job and non-combat related)
    - he recall himself that eating monster flesh is lethal only after eating the pit-falled two-tail wolf, and only survive because the Holly stone is the most powerful (and extremely rare) healing item of tortus, basically being the sole human having ever survived it.
    - he spend several days at making Donner, falling something like 100s of attempts before, and it's actually not a gun, but a rail-gun using his lightning ability given by the two-tail wolf, enhancing a whole lot the penetration power of the projectile fired, hence why he os everything without explanation
    - he eat the claw bear arms just ahead of him because, well, is kinda edgelly insane, and want to make him experiencing the same trauma while overcoming is own.
    But yeah, that was apparently too hard to make it this way. Apparently.

      "he spend smthg like a week to tens day experiencing phantom pain from his missing limb AND the everlasting hunger"
      I wonder how the manga portrayed that. Because, if I was in charge of the anime, I'd spend at least 15 minutes of him doing nothing else but writhing in pain and hunger pangs, constantly screaming, moaning, rocking about, incoherently mumbling revenge on everyone, perhaps adding in some of those cheesy fast-forwards like in the SAW franchise. Only then would I show him going out to fight the wolves in a dramatic battle that would act as cathartic given the content of the rest of the episode. Only to end with the cliffhanger that eating the wolf meat infects him and starts scrambling his vitality.
      Of course, such an episode could only be shown in the middle of the season, after the setting and the context had been established.

    I’m really glad you enjoy this, because most people I talk to hate it. I personally had a lot of fun with the first episode. It’s the perfect amount of edge for me . Most anime with edgy characters try to redeem those characters, send the message that the world isn’t bad. The real fun of edgelords isn’t that though, it’s in the high levels of self pity that lead to an over the top power trip. If you ever saw Linebarrels of Iron, the beginning of the show is the main character being constantly bullied, he then gets super powers and goes on a rampage of revenge. Fuck the high road, he gets straight up cathartic revenge on everyone. That immoral self absorption is so emotionally charged, I just love it. Shield Hero was too much gloom for me in the beginning. Someone hits you, you don’t cry about it, you murder their whole family. Obviously we can’t do that irl, it would just make things much worse for ourselves, but that’s why we have fiction, to release those feelings of frustration.

    In the light novel its explained afterwards that eating monsters is a stupid idea, but the point was to convey that he's so hungry that he's lost his sanity, something the anime does not convey at all.
    I'm pretty sure that he traps the wolves by like encasing their heads and limbs into stone so they can't fight back, and drills into them with a rock drill he transmuted.
    There's also just a bunch of other shit that would've been easily explained if given some time and exposition. In all honesty it would've been better if that bear was taken care of in the 3rd episode. If you find a flaw just think "he's an otaku"
    He's still edgelord supreme though.

He gets the "worse stats" and is then betrayed by them and thrown into a dungeon. In this dungeon monsters are really strong, and he survives by eating his first enemy and gainin his powers. He then gets a cool revolver, and goes on to become edgyer and edgyer as the manga progresses. At some point his hair is died white too.

    should have added the fact that when he shoots the bears arm it explodes but when he shoots its head the bullet kinda just slinks into its forehead and just stops even though in every other scene the bullets explode. and that bullet did not go deep enough to kill anything the only thing it would of achieves is pissing off the bear off and making it bleed alot

    What is up with those anime titles, even scientific essays have much shorter titles ffs. I would say the titles show how little the creator cared for his project, but there are good animes out there that has long titles as a JOKE. For example, A world where dirty jokes don't exist.

    In the Arifureta webnovel, the dynamics between MC and his friends and the sheer impact of betrayal when it happens was so high that you actually felt for the MC. Like in Shield Hero. However, the Arifureta anime didn't capitalize on that. Too bad!

    Ascendance of a Bookworm is the only isekai series I genuinely love out of everything being pushed right now with Bakarina a close second. The animation quality in the trailer has me worried though. I wish the company that did Snow White of the Red Hair had done Bookworm. But hopefully it'll be better than Arifureta!

      I gave the manga adaptation a chance after I heard about the anime's announcement on MAL. I hadn't read a modern isekai story before this one, so I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it! I don't have too many hopes on the anime due to the animation quality on the trailer, but if it's going to follow the original story accurately then I think it'll be worth waiting for.

      He got to 93 chapters before dropping it (cause he was posting on chapter a week and there's like over 600 chapters. He didn't want to spend years translating.) He does an excellent translations of the web novel and the chapters are pretty long.

    I can't express how disappointed I am at this adaptation. I was excited when the anime was announced as the light novels where one of the first I picked up, and i really enjoyed them (not because the excessive amount of fan service though that plays its part), I only prayed that the adaptation would do the base material justice. Sadly my worst fears have come to pass concerning Arifureta. Just about everything you pointed out in these videos is spot on: directing and story boards are so muddled that even though I've read the material, it still confused me, artwork and the 3D animation is worse than a show from A1, I would complain more but I'll move on.Two days ago you mentioned in your anime season first impressions video that arifureta was going to be the trashy isekai of the season, I truly hoped you would be wrong, sadly you hit the nail on the head. The only thing I can do to salvage the rep of the base material is to tell you to go read it, all in Hope's that you see that it had (emphasis
    on had) potential. The adaptation is an atrocious and disgusting abomination, and I'm sorry that the first impression this left was so horrid.
    Thanks for all the great videos so keep up the hard work, and hope the next time one of my favorite light novels gets adapted, it actually does it justice.

    ( the first episode was planned to be a one hour special, but at the last moment it was taken over by the asread )
    Important to note that the White Fox twitter account never shared anything related to Arifureta since the first anime announcement.

    maybe that was just a translation mistake from where i watched it, but i annoyed me as the bear clearly sliced of his arm before eating it. in the manga the bear did bite of his arm, but it didnt happen in the anime

    My personal experience with Arifureta is limited to the LN, which I dropped around Vol 3.
    The anime definitily has it harder since it came out after "Shield Hero", which told a similar concept much better.
    The biggest problem with Arifureta imo is, that the MC (I forgit his name and tbh I don't care enough about it to look it up) becomes completly unlikeable for me.
    First: He fullfills many Iseaki tropes: he only has the base stats while any other have higher (why?), besides the one girl who will become part of his harem down the line (that's a prediction, not a fact, since it didn't happen in the LN at the point I dropped it) gives a **** about his situation and anything. He becomes super powerful without doing much (simply by consuming enemies) because he is lucky. His class is the only one that allows him to create his weapons and so on.
    That all could be seen as just another Isekai, if the dude didn't become completly unlikeable. Which could be stated to come from the treatment he experienced in this new world, but that doesn't chance the fact, that becoming someone who believes that power is everything makes him a likeable character. Instead he comes across as mean and at the end I simply wanted someone (*insert head fanfiction with any character you Like - best option would be an edgelord*) to come in and punch him in the face.
    And once I realised that I couldn't like the MC, Arifureta died for me. Don't know how the Anime will fare, but at the moment, the LN still is enough to let me make a big way around it.
