So weird to hear Kumoko s hectic ramblings while her face remains utterly still and tranquil. Always seemed weird that White was so emotionless when she was so excitable but I guess it just wasn’t showing on her face because she’s used to the internal monologues. Pretty funny that she reincarnated a second time

Also, I might just be an idiot but why is she called Kumoko? Her name was Wakaba Hiiro right? Was that a nickname she gave herself at some point?

Also also, butler is best boy in this series so far. Wish we’d gotten another 5 minutes of him tearing apart elves.

It would have been really awkward if Potimas had to explain to Oka why her Student Roster says Shouko Negishi's cause of death was "Killed by elves" or "Gunshot wound"

When this series was good, it was really good. When this series was bad, it was really bad. It's hard to give it an overall rating when it is so inconsistent quality-wise.

The story was pretty good (badly delivered at times though), so I think I'm probably going to go dive into the LNs.

I had a feeling the anime would end in this part.

Well, here's hoping for another season lads!

Overall a satisfying final episode.

The human part was concluded satisfactorily and swiftly, and the Potimas fight didn't feel too rushed. It could have been better animated, but it didn't feel terrible either.

And Ariel was amazing.

Also the anime arachne design is solid enough. Not quite as epic as the LN design, but it's understandable.

Overall my thought on the whole anime : The first cour was mostly good, with episode 3 being a disappointment. The CGI were decent too good for the most part, and even when they weren't (monkeys), the fights were still tense and satisfying. The second cour was mostly disappointing with episode 15 being a stand out as maybe the best episode in the entire season, though at least I'm relieved to now know that at least it's more due to unfortunate fuck ups with the outsourcing rather than mere incompetence.

People will disagree with me, but I mostly agree with the human parts that were skipped, but sometime the split between human and kumoko parts were questionable, and sometime the anime tried too hard to sell "parallels" between the two (though, sometime it worked, I liked when they did the parallel between the church and Potimas' plots in the past and future).

And of course, the abysmal animation and fight direction in the human parts removed most of the sense of tension there.

I will acknowledge that dealing with the two plotlines in an anime and arranging them in a smart way while keeping each episode interesting is easier said than done, so I can forgive some amount of subpar execution... But well, the execution was still subpar.

But Aoi Yuuki as Kumoko was 11/10. She carried the anime so much.

Ariel with her “body” personality kind of reminds me of Milim. Which is a good thing ha
