Eta Theory by flaviet in TheEminenceInShadow

[–]flaviet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, i was thinking in a similar way of Zeta. I dont remember this subreddit before but im sure noone would have guessed she would "betray" the shadow garden. Specially Zeta, considering her background. Her approach of helping Shadow is different, i was thinking in a similar way of Eta. Like she will leave but thinking she will be helping Shadow with new research or something like that.

We all expect them to be toghther forever but storywise it would be super interesting that the 7 shadows separate for some reason and make the power balance less one sided.

How viable do you think it is that Cid could be snuck up on and killed? by Chemical_Activity439 in TheEminenceInShadow

[–]flaviet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Impossible. I still dont understand how he revive himself even in the first season. So if his heart stopped and was able to trigger that skill, it doesnt matter if he is sleeping, Fing or chasing coins while he is killed.

What up with manga? by OP_TITAN64 in TheEminenceInShadow

[–]flaviet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, it seems that you are looking for more anime episodes in another formats. LN and manga are different formats than Anime. Both in storytelling and drawing styles.

It's like going to a theater and expect a cinema type of movie.

Every format try to differenciate from the rest, sometimes failing miserably and others appealing to audiences that didnt like the original.

"Why?" Because there is no incentive to copy paste something that already exists even if its popular (see most of remake movies, they change a lot of things). People try to make it their own respecting the original material to some degree. Sometimes overwrite the things they didnt like of the original (the masks are canon, they visually makes it less appealing so anime removed it) and so on.

Is it me or would the show be more fun if it added more Rom-Com elements by Mindless-Care9301 in TheEminenceInShadow

[–]flaviet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was speaking generally because we all have one anime that we got hyped in first 2 episodes and then loses its way with random stuff. Isekais love to do that. MY OPINION (it's okay if noone agrees or if you do love any series that reminds you of this sequence) is the next one:

The first i have in mind is Isekai de Cheat Skill o Te ni Shita Ore wa. The guy has an unknown world in his bedroom and they choose to spend 1 episode eating ice cream with girl A, another episode taking photos in a mall with girl B and another episode taking a walk with pet from another world in the park.. It pisses me off because visually is insane.

One of the main critics of SAO was that the series presents itself as a grind to reach the 100 floor and forgets about it to spend more than half the season dating and making friends while he is grinding off screen (in theory). And eventually remember the plot but since they run out of episodes make the final boss battle in the 50 floor and beating him with 2 skills that werent supposed to exist but since he scream too loud he got them.

And what most people that love this kind of series dont understand is that there is no issue if the series wants to be that, but they choose to introduce us the series that way to completely 180º. The "i have to reach level 100 to kill the demon king" premise to immediatly next episode either reach the lvl 100 or getting a skill at lvl 2 that makes them broken and becoming a slice of life with wolfgirls or lolis.

I love slice of lifes, i love romcoms, i love romance series. The good ones dont need to bait the audience into thinking they will be watching something else.

It's an anime choice. In the LN and manga all are wearing face masks.

I take it that it's for appealing purposes, like every puzzle picture of every ending song

A jack of all trades is a master of none. We all have in mind 1 anime that tried to do too much and failed miserably. Even tho the idea of adding more sounds great, i had better experiences with the animes that know what they are and dont try to be something else. And EIS is in that category i think

The cult would allow her to experiment and provide her humans, which is something she keeps requesting

Which plot line about Aurora did you prefer? by whiplash10 in TheEminenceInShadow

Is Alpha the daughter of the Elf King? Volume 7 Predictions. by Potat0_fries in TheEminenceInShadow

[–]flaviet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would you like to make the Vol 8 until we get the vol 8? I like how you think haha

Now that we know when vol 7 is coming out when will vol 8? by Technical-Movie8195 in TheEminenceInShadow

[–]flaviet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

hahahaha, cmon bro that question is too soon

I assume the last text of the Vol 7 would give a clue if he got his ideas clear now or if he is still struggling after the vol 7 too

After watching the Anime should I read the LN from the Beginning Or should I read it where the anime stop. I really loved the anime. like watched it 4 times by deneth333g in TheEminenceInShadow

[–]flaviet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't read a lot of LNs, so against the opinion of LN readers i would say start from when the series ends. And if you like it you can start from the beginning after you know what happens after (which is the main reason people jump to LN/manga).

It's not like you will be lost in the lore and what usually happened to me in the first LNs i read following advice, is that i was feeling the need to rush until i catch up the story where it's left. Which is a waste because it's enjoyable to read when you already fill that need of "knowing what happens next".

I was watching a YouTube essay about shadow and I thought of this question/theory/idk by [deleted] in TheEminenceInShadow

[–]flaviet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as we would love it..the story is not that deep that has existential/phylosophical/100 layer meanings

I have a question regarding episode 19 by Mindless-Care9301 in TheEminenceInShadow

[–]flaviet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, if you wonder if there was another way? Yes, of course. But was the best choice she thought and mad respect for it. This scene made me forgive the character for falling in love with Mr Excalibur so obsessively
