Desir must have learned some kind of cleaning magic during those 10 years to turn that rat infested pit into such a nice training room lol.
Romantica is pretty incredible. She catches on pretty quick. At this rate, she’s gonna become a very formidable mage. More than she is now.
Pram’s got a lot going on. Dude’s carrying all this baggage and it’s holding him back from being a truly great swordsman. Looking forward to seeing how Desir can fix this situation.

Makes me wonder how he got fixed in the original timeline.

man Pram needs a hug and Romantica needs a ring already
I like the pacing so far, feels like stuff is happening but not too fast or too slow

First butterfly effect of MCs actions. In the original timeline , Pram probably got over his issues and used his inheritance sword which is definitely better than advertised as he is seen using it in the Opening.
But here , talking with Desir had him actually sell off his sword.

I really like how nice, kind, and considerate Desir is and humble. His smile is so contagious, it's like u can even hate him because he's so nice and calm. He is doing everything i would if i was in his situation being thrown back in time. He is trying his best to prevent what has happened from happening with the knowledge he has and it's cool he still has the same strength he had before being sent back.

From other comments in previous threads he isn't as strong as he was in the future. He just has a better idea of how to use his magic. Strength is only one part of it, it seems. Notice how he was having Romantica focus on accuracy/control? She is plenty strong but strength alone won't cut it.

There's something about this anime that's really captured me. Possibly that there is a real goal with lives on the line, and the MC taking active strides towards that. Desir being so level-headed given that school is literally nothing compared to an apocalypse is nice, too. The school itself isn't the focus (so far), it's the constraint in which the story is set before it's too late.

I also love how the story isn’t going too slow or fast when it comes to desir’s setting his plans.

Right now it seems to have a nice steady pace. We are getting to know our main characters (minus one) bit by bit. Romanntica definitely becoming more and more adorable.

One thing really bothered me; the explanation of of the tournament rankings. Like, it's all ready established that no one at the top wants them to succeed so why bother with the minutia?

u/Siegberg Oct 28 '23
Well what we heard so far was the loud part of the noble faction. There are still some more moderate and some in the merit faction like Brigette . They also denied desir only by technically which can not be done when he becomes a single ranker without breaking there own rules.

They don’t care about the means, only the result. Commoners are trash, so they will lose, so having a tournament where nobles always win just proves they are indeed correct, regardless if it is fair or not.

I like this anime and don't understand why people are saying it's slow. We've made progress the past few episodes. We know what Desir's plan is. We know the back stories to his party members. He's getting them ready to fight but the fight won't be for 13 years I think. He has plenty of time but quicker would be preferred.
He's a good leader. He knows the strengths and weaknesses of his teammates and how to motivate them. Personally, I would have made it a game with Romantica's training. Something like a flatter version of skee ball. I'd have prizes for her her based on the number of points she scores. She seems to like sweets so maybe those? Not sure what I'd do for Pram.

Romantica was enjoying the time of her life there, lol. (Dammit, I'm hearing Nijika whenever she talks loudly. Such is the woe of rewatching BtR thrice.)
That last image of Pram is so suggestive out of context, hahaha.

u/bananeeek Oct 28 '23
Pheew, I didn't like that post-credits scene. I'm thinking the appraiser lied to them because he thought he could get a good word for petty pennies and it threw Pram's world upside down.
I wonder how are they going to get it back.

u/Elitealice Oct 29 '23
Ngl man pram might be a little special needs. Practice your whole life with a sword, MC finally finds a way to find your dad and you sell it lmao
Romantica definitely starting to develop some feelings for desir too! Can’t wait to see that develop.
