    I don’t know what other people think, but despite a few hiccups, I’ve been pretty happy with this season so far.

      I don’t know what other people think,

      I hate it to an unreasonable degree. They skip everything.

        My criteria is (1) whether I think people watching only the anime will enjoy it enough to keep making the rest, and (2) that the parts they animate don’t actively destroy the important parts of the story.

        I understand there will always be people who read the book first, and then will find many things to be disappointed with in the adaptations, but I’ve always been the person who reads the books first and then still enjoys the movie or show, as long as the adaptation is good on its own.

        I loved the Harry Potter movies. I loved the Lord of the Ring movies. I loved the first few seasons of Game of Thrones, until the last few seasons where everybody agreed it went to shit.

        For Bookworm, I actually watched the earlier anime first, and wasn’t too impressed, just thinking it was above average. Then, I read the LNs, and the next time I watched it, it seemed so much better.

        My biggest complaint about this season is how they didn’t even address after Wilfried was dragging around Rozemyne’s unconscious body except that he apologized later. I think that’s jarring for anybody.

          The way I see it they are destroying everything that makes the series great and even anime onlies should see that something is missing. For example there is talk about how important the Starbinding is and that this could result in her real family getting killed. Then they cut to the Starbinding and everything just works out perfectly. They left out all the work she puts into this to reach that point. In the anime this is unearned. It has no worth. No meaning. If it’s like that it would be better if there wasn’t an adaptation at all.
