Since it has the same staff, you can reasonably expect the second season to have similar qualities to the first season.

It'll probably be 10 episodes long, cut out parts of the LN with little care for coherency, have plenty of good jokes and funny faces and, if we're really lucky, have another episode with as much Kikuta involvement as 9 did.

>>150575988
I hope this time they make OVAS adapting whatever they cut from the LNs.

>>150574982
I really want that S2 to cover that part.

>>150576088
You'll get an OVA featuring a poorly introduced new character with a scenario that barely involves them and you're going to like it, buster.

>>150576088
Well this Wiz chapter they skipped on S1, wasnt that great, they just go to the cementery and meet her, after some banter with Aqua, but nothing special; the time Kazuma changed teams with Dust is actually pretty fun and Kazuma finally acts like a competent adventurer without much trouble.

>the time Kazuma changed teams with Dust is actually pretty fun and Kazuma finally acts like a competent adventurer without much trouble.
That is the one im missing the most.
Kazuma is the glue for the team, without him it crumbles into pieces.

Still mad at how they pulled a Wiz with Yunyun introduction.

>>150576387
if they cover the Axis cult arc, I hope they dont write out Wiz from it, and I hope they show the tranqulity girl stuf if they somehow can.

We should be getting a proper introduction to her, and a small amount if they end up adapting volume 5.

But I can see them being like "remember that girl we had in the OVA!" type of shit.

Yes, I'm still bitter that they did that to Wiz, and I can't help but feel like they are going to keep using that to cut corners.

My guess for the episodes we get, considering a twelve cour:

>Episode 4: Lalatina's arranged marriage
>Episode 5-6: Vanir
>Episode 7-9: Hot Springs City
>Episode 10: Vs. Hans

I don't know if they could fit volume 5 into the remaining episodes, so maybe go into the Megumin prequel?

Just saw an interview with Konosuba's anime character designer and 1 of 2 animation directors Koichi Kikuta.

>He was the First Animator for Princess Lovers and some Working, and these two apparently influenced his decision to have use a minimalist + animating design for Konosuba.

>He was hired by Studio Deen to make another series, but that production was terminated. So Deen asked him to switch to his one.

>On first glance of LN illustrations, he exclaimed "this is way too cute. No way we can animate this." So he decides to concentrate on the animation part.

>The producer only rejected his proposal once and asked him to closer follow LN's designs. Koichi Kikuta made some minor changes to the design and handed the design back.

>The original author never once complained about the design.

>Even though he is the character designer, the other animation director Komatsu Momoka (even number episodes) actually followed his original design better than himself (odd number episodes). Most agrees that his original design and by extension Komatsu's animation is much better than his eventual episodes. He hangs his hat and apologizes for being too carefree.

>>150591578

That's pretty normal for most productions where there is less time for each animation supervisor to oversee the shots, hence later episodes having more supervisors to compensate.

>>150591768
>>150591796
>>150591799
>>150591801

Remember when the anime design first came out, and every one screamed bloody murder on how he butchered the design? And the whining lasted all the way to episode 3?

Even though ultimately his decision proved to be correct, I guess he wants to prove those people are wrong once and for all.

>>150591924
I guess he took it to heart when people are bitching that his design are ruining the original design.

I mean, yeah, that Darkness and Yunyun look hideous.

>>150591630
>For S2, he will try to make the anime 'more moe'
This would be a mistake. Most anime have very stiff but cute drawings, I'd rather have Konosuba's approach of expressive animation instead.

I will watch the 1st episode for the memes and if the memes are strong, I will continue.

>>150591630
> More Moe
This is always a mistake. Fantasy Australia is a nightmare made bearable by sick bantz and great characters.

There are scenes in the LN where characters try to abuse being cute. Save the moe for cheap exploitation.

>>150591967
Oh, right that Yunyun is still pretty not.

>>150590992
>minimalist + animating design for Konosuba.
More anime should use simpler designs, that's for sure. It lets the animators focus more on actually animating rater than worry about detailed hair strands and costumes.

>>150592082
Until what point though?

Might as well draw them Southpark style or shit.

>>150592105
Theres always a healthy middle ground

>>150592105
Kid-friendly anime like Pokemon tend to have rather animation-friendly designs, that's a good base to work with. I'm not suggesting the industry should go down some slippery slope of simplifying designs to the point where things look like cheap cartoons, but a lot of modern anime designs are a burden to animate, which is something that's even pointed out by skilled industry veterans. I guess it probably doesn't help that many shows have to adapt from awful LN illustrations and simplifying things too much will piss off the otaku.

>>150579587
It's a hilarious comedy disguised as a moeshit fantasy.

This just means S3 will have perfected the design.

Or maybe he just wanted a design that's actually better for animation? Detailed designs are no good if you don't have the luxury of time to animate them well. Simple stuff works best for TV anime.

I should add that Kikuta was known as a great First Animator for dynamic fight scenes.

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=65854

His style is animation over individual frame quality, which makes him perfect for action sequences.

He rarely do moe/static series. Konosuba is the first time he is the animation director for a 'moe' series.

The destroyer couldn't have been beaten without both megumme and wiss and she did the final hit too (Wiss couldn't do it anymore because Aqua energy would kill her,i think)
Also things that are gonna be adapted in S2.
She is most of the time the one that beat the final boss with explosions.

I like this guy.

>>150596173
The succubi are the best part of S1

Am I the only one who actually enjoyed animation in S1
Like yeah it was cheap and minimalistic, but colors are really pleasant, the animation itself is quite fluid and you can tell that the animators have understanding of anatomy but not enough time to draw it in more detailed way.

>>150596061
To be fair though, we do know that the first season didn't have much funding behind it. Just the fact that it was only 10 episodes was enough of an indication of that.

While it was likely his intention anyways to go minimalist, I would say it would be silly to think that budget wasn't a consideration in that decision. Even if it may have largely been his own preference.

>>150596113
I think that was the anon's point, pointing out all her uses in the party to say the "useless" description is stupid.

To be fair though, Kazuma considers her useless because of her lack of thinking when using those skills and just their general best frenemies relationship.

In the sense that entire show would cost less, sure, but that wouldn't mean there's less money per episode. All the other 10 ep series produced by Kadokawa look like any other anime. I just think it's silly to have such a narrow focus on money to the point of ignoring explicit statements by the staff explaining the reasoning behind their work.

Some more stuff from the interview

>These days, he does mostly OP/ED animation layouts

>Even though he is known for his dynamic scenes, he himself prefer static shots. When he does action scenes, he has to limit how many key frames he is allowed to use, and this bothers him a lot.

>He joined the industry after he watched FLCL.

>He likes doing layout more than animation. He doesn't think he is that good at drawing; whereas designing layouts give him much more satisfactions.
>As an animator, the creation process tends to be iterative, and gradually progresses to good. On the other hand, if he has good animators who understand his intentions, giving them both the layout and his intents often lead to great work in the first iteration. He loves it.

>It is very rare for a chief animation director to do everything like he did for episode 9.

>As mentioned, he designed all the succubi himself. He tried to make them both appeal to his taste. Originally he also wanted to make them more realisticly proportion, but after consideration, he decided to exaggerate their designs such as shrinking their shoulders length and wider pelvis (ie. bigger ass.)

There's a joke about traps in there somewhere.

The only completely useless party member is Darkness. What good is tanking if you can't maintain aggro or do any damage? You could replace her with a rock and the rock would do a better job.

>He also doesn't really think the animation or drawing consistencies (no shock here.) The composition is the most important. He never tried to correct any of the faces deformalities in the anime. If possible, he'd prefer to have 1 First Animator responsible for an entire series.

>The character designs are hugely influenced by Shingo Suzuki and his works "K" and "Princess Lovers". One can see the influence with he uses shadows, eg. shadow under the nose

Boy that doesn't sounds good. The non-garden-variety moe is what makes the first season so good, and now this guy want to make it more generic moe show? Tell him to fuck off.

I guess they will do Vol. 5 since it's the most moe volume.

Problem is, this has happened before man.

Kore wa Zombie has the same studio (Deen), same director (the dude direct Konosuba too), and yet the second season turn into utter shite.

Deen has learned nothing. They prefer coddling homo cuck show like Rakugo than this.

>>150597679
The spectrum of expressions of the characters were a good portion of the humor. More moefication will doom konosuba.

>>150597682
It has nothing to do with DEEN, it's Kadokawa. For whatever reason, they increasingly seem to prefer producing series with only 10 episodes as opposed to the usual 12/13.

I don't even know why they even decided to produce the second season.

The first season was made to promote the LN, they succeeded the LN made literal million. Everybody that would've bought the LN already bought it. So why do they even care making the second season?

Just to promote Vol. 11 and the new Megumin spinoff? What a waste of money.

So where the fuck was Megumin living before they got their house in the city? She wasn't with them in the barn, yet her financial situation was even worse than Kazuma & Aqua's considering she was starving to death when they met her. Does the LN mention it at all? Was she living in some filthy alley, praying nightly that the rats would find her before the rapists did?

The first part of the second season would probably a bit weak. It adapt Vol. 3 which is Darkness centric volume and is somewhat regarded as one of the weaker volume.

I'm pretty sure that Kazuma has a free pass at fucking the whole harem, but doesn't succeed for the manliest reasons possible.

He doesn't fuck Aqua because she's dumb.
He doesn't fuck darkness because she's too butch
He doesn't fuck megumeme because she's too invested in her profession
Iris because too young.
Eris because Haram.
Wiz because corpse.

The secret is Kazuma set the bar too high by looking for a simple sweet girl that enjoys being a house wife. He wants the perfect girl.

Is not a reason to not fuck Darkness especially considering how sexy he thinks she is. This goes for every reason on the list.

The actual reason is because Kazuma is traumatized when his childhood friend ends up dating a chad, that's also why he is a NEET.

>>150602744
He didn't seem to care either when he thought it was a dream he was ready to get with her.

The best winter sales with the lowest budget...

Rakugo sold like what, 1/5 of konosuba? Why season 2 of that bomba?

>>150598792

>threadly reminder that people's opinions on a character in a visual medium would change if the character looked completely different

I like the saggy tits and when Aqua starts yelling at shit. It's a pretty good anime imo (in my opinion). Just thought you should know friends.

>>150602963
Deen's prestige series.

If Konosuba's second season is as bad as I feared I'll never forgive them.

>>150603040
I can understand that opinion anon. Both are great points and bless the succubi

They will never execute this joke properly. From what I've seen, the animators here have no sense of timing or delivery.

>He tried to make them both appeal to his taste.

This man KNOWS that garters go UNDER the panties. He truly knows what he likes.

>>150596950
Not enough anime have succubi that are as alluring and perfect as these ones. Anime could always use more

>>150602282
>He doesn't fuck Aqua because she's dumb.
It's not because she's dumb, he constantly goes on about how beautiful she is and how much her personality ruins it. It's less "she's an idiot" and more like he can't stand the waste of good looks on someone with that kind of personality (which is pretty similar to his own).

>He doesn't fuck darkness because she's too butch

What the fuck are you on about? When the hell has Darkness been butch? She's the most lady like of any of them outside of her fetish. She likes to wear dresses and shit. The reason Kazuma doesn't go after her is because he is afraid to cross that line, and also because her fetish sometimes disturbs him.

Did you miss the part in volume 7 when she explicitly asked him to take her virginity and he intentionally ruined it with an ab joke?

>He doesn't fuck megumeme because she's too invested in her profession
Not really accurate, though partly true. He's mostly against it because he doesn't know if his own feelings are real, or if he's just desperate. Also he thinks she can be a real idiot at times, though he later becomes accepting of the whole Explosion obsession.

>Iris because too young
And yet he goes on about how if she asks to marry him in a few years he would accept in an instant.

It's more like he does worry about the difference in status despite what he says. And he legitimately wants whats best for Iris, since living with her and seeing how lonely her life gets.

>Eris because Haram.
Pretty sure he would jump at the chance. Though it looks like he is more into their banter dynamic at the moment.

>Wiz because corpse.
Not an actual reason stated in the story, but I guess that makes sense. He probably understands that it would be weird to go all the way with an undead person hot or not. Though that hot springs volume somewhat puts that to question.

Granted Vol. 6 and Vol. 8 could be together in the same season and it would be wonderful.

>>150603367
S1 ED also had that cool tilt-shift thingy, I wonder if they could pull something good like that again.

>>150596967
Drain touch is pretty special snowflake. What's average Joe adventurer's odds of finding a friendly lich?

>>150599402
>Megumine was perfect, Aqua is the worst thing ever
Aqua is the funniest part of Konosuba you faggot.

>“Please continue to stay in my nation. After all, I will try my best to make it one that onii-sama will forever want to live in.”

Hnng. It hurts. Iris is so kind.

>>150603637
Luck is Kazuma's defining trait.

Even so the fun part is watching him use his limited power to cheese his way through disaster. It is a million times more hilarious to defeat a Sphinx with a feline's natural nemesis- the laser pointer- than to simply "MOAR POWER" his way to victory.

>>150603637
You are right, I forget about that.

>What's average Joe adventurer's odds of finding a friendly lich
Doesn't everyone in Axel know Wiz's true identity?

>>150603743
Based. I wonder if we'll be seeing Kazuma's dilemma of going to Japan vs staying in Australia.

The manga adaptation have the party going to Japan, which I don't think was in the LN. Would be quite cool seeing them in Kazuma's world.

No I think? They stopped her from using drain touch in V2.

But knowing axel, the higher up of the adventurer guild knows but couldn't bear to do anything to the kind but poor shop owner.

Does anyone actually own the JP BDs out of love? I'm thinking about going down that path.

>>150604640
I did. I regret not knowing moon because I want to know what's written in the booklets that come in each BD. Seems like some kind of short story.

>>150604252
Korean zombie?

Yeah, I had a really great laugh in the first season, but the second season is just awful.

Although the fact that there is no really annoying character in Konosuba like Seraphim might mean it had better chance at being good.

>>150604640
BD is too expensive for me, so I bought the LNs instead. Might give the author more money that way too. I'm also planning to give the YP translation a shot too.

>>150604726
I think yunS was translating some of the short stories as well.

Like I said, there is no reason whatsoever to make the second season, the LN already got the sales boost, so why would make yet another

Haven't read konosuba in like 8 months. Season 1 ended with the spider fortress, right? What are the next couple of volumes? Chunni village? Kazuma on trial? Hotspring town? I can't keep their order straight

pretty sure ko zombie became crap even in the novels?

Konosuba material can stay pretty solid for 50+ episodes

>>150605490
Kazuma's trial which means introduction of Vanir.

Second half (assuming they cover two volumes like the first) will be going to the Axis cult's city so Hans and Wolbach.

>>150605417
Konosuba was most likely funded to promote the LN and the succeed, and second season anime rarely attract a lot of new viewers, so the people that would probably buy the LN probably already do.

>Deen didn't actually want to work on this show, that's why they gave no budget, assign their B team (while their A team is working on Rakugo) and hires cheap new VAs.
>It was a surprising success (manage to majorly boost LN sales) and had a decent BD sales too (helped by the weak season)
>They don't actually want to keep working on the show, but Kadokawa somehow ask them to make a second season
>Deen won't reject free money, but they still don't like the series and keep half-assing it, maybe even gave it even lower budget than the first season so they had an even bigger margin.

>>150605557
I also heard the director (same guy that direct Konosuba) retconn a lot of things to favor his favorite girl.

Now I know that sounds dumb as shit, but I don't think anyone would complain if say, the director pull the same shit and make like Megumin even more prominent or something.

>>150605606
Is that Kazuma's VA? Nigga's huge.
