And now we begin the long wait until the OVA gets translated. In the mean time, we try to figure out what happens in the LNs that Bones skipped
Also, ATK art dump
>>118226834
It's much easier to list what the didn't change.
What they kept are very general ideas, like Gaz getting revived, or Gillette coming back, or Toru making a contract. They also more or less kept the same character names (except for Black Chaika). They kept the location (Hartgen's Principality, Goeranson castle).
>>118227467
So it's an FMA style anime original ending that more or less completely ignores the source material? Great.
>>118227626
>FMA style anime original ending
We didnt get surprise Hitler or a different main villian here though. Or anime original characters.
>>118227626
All adaptations are more or less like this. There's not much they can do with only 10 episodes.
>>118227705
But the anime did add that wine hero and the fake chaika. They just get mentioned or show up for like a second in the LN.
>>118227724
I know a lot of adaptations are pretty shitty, but this seems pretty above and beyond my normal expectations for adaptations
i dunno, maybe I've just been lucky in the past.
>>118227750
But neither of them played a big role in the story, unlike Dante and the original homunculus in FMA 2003
>All this ATK
ayy
>>118227955
Except wine hero wasting two episodes.
We will never have an SoL with Chaika and Freddy.
>>118228036
Those two episodes has material from the novel as well. You wouldnt know because you are secondary but thats how it is.
>>118228139
It's filler material they should have skipped to develop more important points.
Actually, if they went full SoL and Cute Chaikas Doing Cute Things, the season (and probably the whole series) would have been much better.
I really wish we got more time with season 2. Season 1 was so promising and struck a decent balance with world building, character moments, and plot development. I really hope the LN gets a proper translation cuz I got a fever, and the only prescription is more Chaika.
>>118228326
>SoL
haha faggot
>>118228440
LN for the story.
Anime for mindless entertainment.
>>118228440
>>118228139
I know that, but 90% of them was filler. And even the events that happened like Red and Viivi's encounter with Guy were altered a bit. So nope, no secondary here.
Can't wait for those Vol XI illustrations when Chaika and Niva defeat Gaz and also with the white dress later in the epilogue
>>118228663
please tell me this exist for every character
>>118228601
That's a red Chaika ass right there.
Would you a Chaikari?
>>118228748
MEIN DICK
>>118228748
Who wouldn't? She would look great with white hair and purple eyes.
>>118228748
You say that as if it was a question.
>>118228694
Are you trying to convince yourself about something? Like you'd feel better if Gaz died in volume 11? Like, if Gaz died, then it would mean the anime completely followed the LN?
Also, Gaz getting buttrapaed by Niva was already heavily foreshadowed in the LN.
He sure loves his butts
>>118229207
I wonder if he's going to finish these properly for the art book in March.
>>118229036
Yes, feels good when the novel and anime have the same great ending. Gonna enjoy that a lot.
>>118229207
This art is great. I love these butts and thighs.
>>118229271
Even though the main plot is different?
Would you even be able to read it? If not, why would you care?
>>118229248
To be honest I would get the book even if the pictures look unfinished if he puts more Frederika and Vivi there.
