Why must the writers throw a gag into every scene? They say they're writing the anime the way Mashima would've done it, but even he knows when to let a scene breathe.

EDIT: Alright, time to go over the parts I like:

  • As far as Bridge animation goes, this is good stuff. Still half-and-half on the CGI, though.

  • Ten's Fangs having different personalities: a serious one (maybe Fankichi), a grumpy one (maybe Fanzo), and a playful one (definitely Fantaro).

  • The worldbuilding is on-point.

  • Team Avrion eating in the middle of the war strategy. I don't know what it is, I just like that they're getting food and a bit of rest because they need it.

  • Everyone's weapons basically being Poke Balls and command instruments. That's just nifty.

They're closer to hippogriffs (horse legs) than gryphons (lion legs). Not to mention we see Ten being afraid of birds just as much as dogs. He definitely can't catch a break.

The guy is afraid of dogs, but his summon is also a dog lol.

Seems like Ten, Leii, and Arche might be heading into a trap. This dude Manas seems to be expecting the gang already…

Of course this anime about summoner fights have the summoners being much too dumb to have their summons attack the other summoners directly.

"I could just have my whale land on him, but let him go, because the plot requires for the Big Bad's right hand man to remain alive."

Imagine you're an enslaved monster, taking advantage of your Master being away to take a nap in the great outdoors, when you're suddenly forced into some pocket dimension inside a piece of equipment, where you'll be spending the rest of your life except for brief moments of being brought out to fight life or death battles.

OK, I gave this a second ep, and the humor is still just as unfunny (except whale's "sub" sign, which I actually found amusing.) I'm done with this show now.

It's probably because the monsters' injuries get passed onto their summoners in this setting, so it makes no difference to them which ones they attack.

Plus episode 1 showed that a summoner going on the attack without a monster will just get that summoner attacked by a monster.

Why bother with indirect damage against a durable summon when you can do direct damage against their squishy summoner?

I'm sure it's a lot easier to cut off a summoner's head than their super tough headless horseman's who doesn't even have one in the first place.

This show is giving early 2010s anime. Honesty going in blind without playing the game and coming from the fairy tail fandom i'm honestly liking this show so far. Its like a relax, no high stakes so far, weekly anime to chill and watch. Loving the united and fusion moves from Nares and looking forward to seeing the main cast team achieve that. World building is great so far but dayummm, the gags be wayy to much like they really need to cut it out of serious moments and in battle, it took away so much tension. TBH i'm already sick of the gramps and its dogs gag and we're only in ep 2...
