>“Simply put, the type I like is the total opposite of that man who will achieve great things even if I leave him alone! He must not be too eye catching, either too fat or too skinny will do. It would be best if he loves me but has a weak will, lusting after other girls if they are a bit kind to him. A mandatory criteria will be having a lecherous look and is horny all year round. If he looks down on the hardship of life and just want to live his life easily like a trash will be great. If he has debts, that’s even better! He also has to drink all day and refuse to work, always grumbling that ‘this is the fault of society’. He will then hit me with empty beer bottles and tell me: ‘Hey Darkness, use your slutty body to earn back some cash!’… Hmmm…!”

Darkness seems to like Kazuma?

no, she likes gheto trash, who will beat her, cheat on her and whore her out. Kazuma does fit chunks of her "ideal" however he's rich. VERY VERY rich, and he's not a drunk who'd beat her and whore her out.

This reeks the lamentations of a romantically unsuccessful woman spiteful of the incomprehensible relationship choices of her sexually-active friends.

You can really tell that the author thinks that nothing is good enough for her unless it's the polar opposite of that description, and that she presumes any woman who's found a relationship has simply settled for something less that the perfection she feels entitled to.

Yunyun is only for bully material

>>138686568
Maybe that's why the male main character is actually likeable and the girl characters have stuff to do and their existences don't revolve around the MC's penis.

It feels weird to gush over this show for doing basic things right, but one of the scenes I loved was when the dullahan came back the second time and the MC finds out that Megumin and Aqua were still blowing up the castle. Which is funny enough as a gag, but also they have like motivations and activities that don't revolve around the MC almost like a real story should have.

The fact that the female characters actually have passions and interests is one of the best things about the characters of this show. It's almost appalling that something like that is so novel, but it is because so few authors seem to get that right. It doesn't help that most 'serious' stories, eschew that direction of character development entirely in favour of a series of cardboard cutouts following a single focal protagonist along a railroad track of narrative.

I think part of Konosuba's appeal is just how diverse the cast of characters is for something that's actually so character driven. Any one of them could steal the show, but instead every one of them works together on-screen to create something special. It's genuinely impressive.

This is something I really like in Konosuba. Even if you take the most shallow and popular character, Megumin, she is in fact defined by her personal passion and goal. And her goal has nothing to do with MC's dick, unlike 99% of LN adaptations. She just wants explosions.

And the sad thing is, "I love explosions!" is far deeper and more genuine than what anime girls typically get.This is such a rare thing it honestly dumbfounded me when I thought about it.

LN isn't even a genre outside of Japan.
I kind of wish it was, though. It seems like the whole system of having an author/illustrator pair in the LN format is a whole lot less restrictive than the comparable western comicbook or the "teen fiction' genre that has become a pejorative in the US for any novel less than 300-words and which does not include at least 1 major character death.

>It's almost appalling that something like that is so novel
It is appalling because it shouldn't be novel. It should be standard. That's why I feel weird gushing about it.

It's not even like Konosuba is amazing for doing this, but every other story in this vein is just awful about everyone being a satellite character or chasing penis or both.

And to be honest, I don't even have a problem with chasing penis. I'm fine with it. The real problem is when you have an otherwise likeable character whose motivation is chasing penis because it means they don't get to do anything cool outside the gravitational pull of MC density and their character more than likely won't go anywhere.

>>138687311
Book-sized paragraphs.

>>138687487
I don't think it's even really about dick or phallogocentrism or any of that shit.

Satellite characters just tend to suck. Any character that isn't the main character *(or, in some cases, the antagonist) just tend to suck. They don't get to have agency, or personality, or interests, or passions. They just get to be a faceless, named piece in a social structure that the main character is situated within. They serve a narrative function, offer a gimmick, or a joke's punchline and that's it. Absolutely nothing else.

I think part of the beauty of konosuba's elegantly simple writing is that the humour emerges as a sort of natural consequence of the many different and differently motivated characters pulling in different directions. It's a natural-seeming consequence of interaction, conflict and communication between characters rather than just this monomythic golden path that the protagonist follows because it's their function as the protagonist to follow it.

Harems have the problem of being all about the MC. More than that, being all about the MC when the MC is the absolute least interesting character. But, I think, the bizarre thing is that this is a flaw shared by like 95% of contemporary western writing as well. Nobody seems to know how to write a secondary character that isn't just an echo of an impression of a caricature of a human being seen projected through elaborate deconstructive shadow-puppetry into the back of the protagonist-and-exclusive-perspective-character's mind while the MC tumbles foreward, agency-less, through a series of dramatic events that illustrate some agenda or opinion the author learned to parrot by completing their graduate degree in humanities at UofT.

There's an absolute pandemic of bad character writing in the world which has lowered my standards to such an extent that the anime adaptation of a children's comedy book blows my fucking mind. Goddamn.

Male characters tend to have it the worst. Can anyone remember any non MC Male character* from an eroge or a light novel that has any sort of development or relevance?

*Villains are the obvious exception

does anyone have the crimson demon group picture with their names translated?

If we're talking about generic high school LNs, then no. I'm surprised I can't think of a single one. Koizumi from Haruhi is the closest I can think of, and he's a boring irrelevant piece of shit.

>>138687962
Koizumi is almost a character. The problem is that his role in the story is like mechanical and he sets things up in the background and the main thing he does is spout exposition. He does have an ulterior character motivation, but it's just chasing vag. Which is kind of uninteresting and you know nothing's ever going to come of it and so on and so forth.

>>138687962
What about outside of generic highschool LNs?
I can't even remember of a character from Crime and Punishment that isn't named "Raskalnikov" and a I strongly suspect that the issue is far more endemic than that.

>>138687706

The best way to handle the secondary problem is to cast main characters in other series as secondaries

This is what I really loved about Muv-Luv Alternative. Aside from the main harem of girls interested in the plain MC, age added the girls from two other titles as mentors and sempais. With them, they brought all their histories and interests and were able to have novel interactions with the original Muv-Luv cast. My favorite scene, of course, si when Chewie asks dense MC Takeru for advise on how to seduce another dumb MC, and he actually gives good advise. It's great.

>>138687370
I don't mind lewd, but I have to agree sadly. The whole episode was nothing but fanservice. It literally did nothing, set up nothing and wasted what could have been an entire weeks worth of exposition/plot in exchange for poor, saggy ladies who aren't even gonna appear for next 5 volumes.

When you put it that way, he seems like the begrudging father-figure who loves his wonderful daughter but doesn't always make it obvious how much he cares.

Darkness is the eldest child, and from a different mother than the other 2. Went off to college and has only now come back. A degenerative product of divorce and dormitory, she's a stranger that's so long estranged to the family she destabilizes it with her weird personality and quirks and is largely ignored to everyone's benefit.
Aqua is the spoiled one. The middle child but the eldest one of the latest marriage, given too much to compensate subconsciously for the failure of the last relationship, she learned quickly to exploit the emotional weaknesses of daddy to get what she wants. Lives in a constant state of self-inflicted neediness because she knows that's a prerequisite ti manipulation
And Megumin, the freshly pubescent youngest child. Only recently having discovered masturbation, she can't yet handle more than one explosion a day, but is addicted to the satisfaction of release. She still indulges in silly, childish things like dressup and make-believe fantasy but is supported by the rest of her family, especially daddy who doesn't want to discourage her and secretly prays that bu giving her a free hand, he'll avoid repeating the mistakes of the first and 2nd. She still has trouble going to the bathroom by herself when she's scared at night.

>>138688702
Nah. Aqua and Kazuma aren't anything but actual siblings.

>>138688751
Aqua takes Kazuma way too seriously to be like a sibling to him.

The two are pretty much partners in crime. They tend to gang up on people when they dick around and have a very implicit amount of trust in each other, where they tend to scream each other's name when they feel danger.

>>138685969
>Wait. The author is a woman?
>>138686568
>Is this bizarro world? I refuse to believe that.

women writers sucking and being unfunny is mostly a western thing. japan has one of the longest and strongest cultural history in the world of female writers. With most of their best writers throughout history being women.

You can tell konosuba is written by a woman because
1) the MC has a personality, and isn't a faceless self insert
2) the girls have characters and goals that exist independent of the MC's dick
3) the author isn't afraid to make cute girls into unlikable bitches
4) there aren't any tsunderes anywhere in this story, except perhaps for the MC Kazuma, who amusingly enough is the only character accused of being a tsundere in the story (by aqua btw).

Has season two been officially confirmed yet?
If not, I have great news for you guys.

For some reason, the idea of a woman that's as trashy as that and pregnant, while being happy and excited and completely indifferent to the idea that they're pregnant is super fulling in a weird sort of way. Like, looking at this image makes pregnancy seem like it's not the lovecraftian body-horror-made-reality that it's constantly portrayed to be by everyone and everywhere you look.

It just kinda occurred to me that outside of the very, very narrow and specific context, of like idyllic normalfag relationships, pregnancy is depicted really negatively

Didn't Deen mess up kore zombie season 2?
Though if any other studio had pick it up I doubt kazuma would have fit in the cast as well as he did since they love to shaft the MC alot.

>>138686661
That's not in the LN though.

>>138694094
ironic, the first time I want deen to do a season two.

The bizzaro world we live in.

>>138690332
Well the remote and test is new, what wonders will I witness next time.

My dad has 83 books of a series that is basically Norwegian LNs.
They were all written by one man in the 60s and 70s.

>>138696272
close enough

>>138695894
thats because they changed directors, and besides, the reason KonoSuba is so faithful despite being 10 episodes is because its the same director of KoreanZombieDeskCar S1

>>138696272
I knew it.

>>138695894
No they didn't.
Japan just has shit taste, and also found out that the series author is Korean or something and lost popularity

>>138695623
It really wouldn't.

>>138696424
It was right there in the title.
KOREAN zombie dress car.

>>138696674
yes, it's already been said in the official twitter.
besides, it would be hard to add another episodes mid season, even if there's demand for them, because of the predetermined time slot.
I mean, just look at kekkai sensen.

>>138696738
they accidentally the budget

Is there a live stream for this, anons?

>>138697007
Fuck off and kill yourself.

>>138696424
I hope you are joking.

>>138697416
Probably not
I remember in a scene from something they are a korean meal and there was huge backlash from it.

never got the point of watching a live stream if you dont know japanese, youll just have to watch it again.

>>138697784
Anime isn't known for being particularly complex. You can get the general gist of what's happening by just watching no dialogue needed. The point of watching the stream is so that you can shitpost live whenever anything happens.

>>138696396
>aqua's amazing MFD impression is a party trick skill that costs 10 skill points to learn
>20 points to learn for the adventurer class

So how much of the show is anime original?

>>138697048
Trying to fit in? Live streaming the episode as it airs is fine. Also >>138697007 yes, OK in the usual place.

>>138697876
none

>>138697922
What went wrong in your head that made you think I was implying that live streaming an episode was anything but "fine"? Are you acting braindead on purpose or are you just that stupid?

>>138697876
As in actual plot, nothing.
There are some minor jokes added though.

damn, I'll probably gonna watch this after konosuba is over. premise looks promising after all when you're bloated with harem shit.

>>138698516
It's shit though. I slept through the second half.

>>138677559
Whoever decided it should only be 10 episodes deserves to die.

>>138699191
They're the same people that can decide to do a S2 anon.

>>138699305
Make it into an actual game.
Hire GONZO to do S2 as an advertisement.
Deen can go fuck itself.

>>138699563
Don't bully DEEN, they didn't completely fuck something up for once in their horrible useless lives.

>>138678475
That is cute.

Fanfic is up.

>>138699563
Also GONZO, what the fuck? They're deadder than dead.

>>138699305
These glorified light novel advertisements that turn out to be really good always worry me.

It's Kadokawa producing, right? I don't trust them.

>>138699740
They were bought by vidiafags and they make ads for video games. Which makes more money than most anime so ironically they do better than most studios.
