Just something that caught my eye. Or ear... XD

I don't have much to say about episode 1. It did a good job at setting the scene of everything.

You might have heard "Farou yo!"

"yo" is a particle which emphasizes a statement.

And I'm glad to hear you're back from your intrepid journey into the deep workings of fansubbing. I thought something... else... had
happened, but it's wonderful that you're still persevering.

Haha! Yeah, I'm sorry about that. I'm surprised you still came back after so long! :-*

I like the part when Lief was like, "Ehhhhh," about Barda coming with his expression is so priceless :D

Post by: Cass on March 22, 2013, 03:45:02 AM: Yes, it's interesting how the anime wanted to depict him as this saviour type character.

I also liked this episode, thought I must say I dislike the art direction that was taken with the pictures that show King Adin's story. I know it was intentional, but the pixelly quality of the artwork really didn't resonate me. This also occurred in the episode with the Ra-Kacharz, and the cards that they had. Brr.

Besides that, it was pretty well animated!

Oh, and I've been wondering (this is the only place I could think of putting it): honorifics! I already spoke of honorifics before, but now I've just realised: almost nobody uses honorifics in this anime! Or perhaps not ones that I am familiar with. Honorifics that denote status seem to be unused, except for the occasional 'sama'. Is there any reason why this is done, I wonder? Is this common in fantasy anime? I would've thought this would sound off to Japanese audiences, as usually a lack of honorific denotes rudeness, no?
