It's in the OVA's:
A magic sword apparently made from a shard of the sun called Ruknabard; was wielded by Silver Mask/Hermes' ancestor and maintains a seal on some nebulous ancient evil called the Snake King.

>8 episodes
There goes any hope of them finishing the novels.
I question why they even bothered.
>>
>>143620201
That's not supposed to be the entire run, is it? They've just like, renewed 8 so far, and as long as it doesn't suddenly tank, more will be on the way?
>>
>>143621158
It is, they fuck up the TV scheduling and Nanatsu no Taizai has only 4 episodes because of it too.
>>
>>143620201
What's the fucking point

I mean season 1 barely got through 24 but content wise I doubt liden can cram this much into 8 episodes.

Kill me now.

Have Liden upped their game at all or do you think we'll be seeing a lot of QUALITY too? TF S2 was a bit better produced but they're working on Berserk and whatever else this season so I dunno.

Regardless, happy to see more Arslan. Enjoyed hanging around in the threads as the episodes aired weekly.

Not only the shadow dude and his black hole earth magic but also Daryun going MUSOU in the same episode. Fun times, I remember that halfway point or around it was basically the height of the show's QUALITY.

Like most of the series it's drawing loosely on Shahnameh. Haven't actually watched it but I should since I'm big on Shahnameh and Persian stuff.

I assume you don't got a Rostam and Sohrab in it? Father who inadvertently kills his own son in a duel not realizing it was his son until it was too late?
>>
>>143632747
So far the Rostam and Sohrab like situation doesnt appear yet or mentioned.

>>143633018

Kk. It sounds like it might just be loosely loosely LOOSELY inspired the way vinland saga is more about stuff going on in England than Eric the red's adventure. Nothing wrong with that.

People also said Elam dies because of Etoile stabbing him.

Didn't happend.

Arslan isn't translated very far and the number of people who care is very low. There also isn't something like a wiki or blog telling people what is going on in the later volumes.

Arslan has a manga from the 90s and covers until Arslan becomes king. The novels are translated in chink. If you know where to look you can find spoilers easily.

Tahamine had a daughter.
The king wanted son. So he shipped the daughter to the Mitra's temple and adopted a random boy from peasants. The last great priestess of Mitra knew about it, but she died. Though she was able to send a mysterious priestess with big jugs which could rival Tahamine's if you know what i mean.

Nah, there was more than enough material for two cours if they felt like it. Worst comes to worst they compress and cut the fuck out of things and we end with Arslan becoming King.

The manga isn't relevant anymore because S1 already went far ahead of it.

The novel still offers material for more than 50 episodes.

The manga was only enough material for like 12 or so episodes and because like you said the novel is the true source material.

I've been asking the same question since S1. It means "hurray" in Turkish but it sounds ridiculous, you don't shout that during a battle. It has to mean something else.

Pars is obviously based on Persia, so it's probably something in Persian. Maybe in Persian it's a Tukish loanword that has a more battle oriented meaning.

The manga explains the legend of the magic sword much earlier, when Arslan's team is heading to Peshawar for the first time.

Persian here, it was sister fucking, not cousin fucking. But that was only with the royal Parthian clans and main royal family. And even then it wasn't that common, a new heir would ascend to the throne, would symbolically marry his oldest or youngest sister, and that was it.

The CR rips are okay for the most part these days, CR has really improved in the last few years. The problem is, Arslan is Funi and Funi has always been is still is pure garbage. See >>143641962 for example or the infamous "Becky is saying something but I can't understand what" line or the fucked up color range in everything including Arslan S1.

The producer of this anime said this season was a bridge to the next full season. So they could play around and did as they liked. Someone said beach episodes will be good.
>>
>>143667688
So this will be like a 3 cour? or will the full season be a few seasons off after this one ends?
>>
>>143652847
Pretty sure the Lusitanians are supposed to represent the Muslims and Pars is the Sassanids.
>>
>>143667362
Fuck, I hate that too; can't screen shot anything on HS.
>>
>>143667820
given the iconography, the Lusitanians seem more representative of Crusade era Christianity.

Don't know if they are similar but I think they are of the same time frame.

>>143668046
nm I'm way off, these Lusitanians are pre-roman empire

Something something about 8 episodes and the sea. I could put in more effort but you didn't so that's all you get.

Yes.

We see him become a manly man.

It was decent, it was not great.

>>143653550
Her outfit was the only thing S1 had going unless you were gay. And S2 ruined it.
>>
>>143672804
Her outfit was awful but that's to be expected because even though it exists in the illustrations for Tanaka's novels, Arakawa's redesigns in general were pretty bad. .

Why does he even need an army?

They're right though, r63 is shit for plebs. Boys should be boys and girls should be put into the trash.

They can barely download an episode of the thing in Iran.

Also it's highly doubtful since they really don't like how Farangis is dressed.

The responses that ANN used in its sources are vetted by the Iranian government to present an outlook they want the world to see. I severely doubt the average anime loving Iranian is going to give a shit about how Farangis/Falangis dresses that much.

Majority of them have proxies and what not other tech shit to get around state firewalls and censorship, private internet cafes are the equivalent in Iran to Starbuck shops in the US, for example. They even had no issue before shit went down with Blizzard on private citizens playing WoW and other games.

Really, not many of them probably care and again, whatever ANN is using for a source in its article are probably vetted and screened to present the image they want the world to see of their citizenry.

The most popular Western show for male Iranians in the 90s and early 2000s to illegally watch or own was Baywatch and Xena. You can easily connect the dots here, anon.

Even anime staff aware how badly they fucked up.
