    I’m conflicted about this anime, because I like the basic idea of an MC who has deep knowledge about the RPG system a world uses.

    I like the setup for this anime that the other characters are thinking things through and trying their best, but it would be impossible to find a broken skill somewhere down a skill tree that was otherwise terrible. Because, like they’ve shown, if you mess up your skills, your life as an adventurer may simply be over.

    People playing that as a video game would be able to try every build, but nobody in that real world would risk screwing up their entire life to figure out what’s the best.

    An anime setup like this one really makes me want to watch until the end so I can see how broken he becomes and how he shows up all the people who doubted him. And it wouldn’t be the same to simply watch the last episode of the season.

    But I have come to detest anime where the MC is a complete dumbass, and Elymas seems to be the stupidest person on that planet. Why would he offer her 80% when he needs to make money and she thinks she’s worthless? Maybe her build is broken, but he’s going for the most broken build and he also has broken knowledge. If she actually knew the Elymas’s isekai situation, she’d be ecstatic for a 20% cut. Not only would she become rich, but Elymas could guide her to choose the best skills going forward. So why would he offer her 80, and even before confirming her build? I think a smart person could have easily convinced her to go for 20, which would probably be in the neighborhood of fair, and if he’d feel guilty about it, anything up to an even share.

    It’s also weird that Elymas is so smart when it’s about the RPG aspects of the game, and the rest of the time, he doesn’t seem like he’d be smart enough to put his armor on correctly.

    I also think that over-exaggerated reactions in an anime are typically there to appeal to like 10 year olds. It’s fine to have them in there occasionally, but Elymas is having them several times per episode.

    I find myself hitting the skip forward button all the time. Stupid overreaction? skip. Pointless flashback? skip. Long CGI pan? skip. At a certain point, I’m not even watching it.

      I think he understands how much loot they are capable of getting. He is planning on getting 20 million on the first day in newb dungeon. That works out to a 16m/4m split. She will probably end up insisting he take more anyway.

        What you’re describing is really the way a small child understands things. “I need food and I have a $20 bill, so if you have a bag of peanuts, then I just have to give you the $20 and I can eat.” They don’t actually understand the deal they’re making. The $20 that the child has is worth far more than the bag of peanuts.

        Him giving her 80% is a terrible deal for him. Him giving her 50% is a pretty bad deal for him. He’s worth far more than her. We know this because the premise is that he’s going for the #1 most broken build in the game.

        That woman at the shop already agreed to hold onto the skill book for him. He doesn’t need a teammate this urgently, even if she has chosen a broken skill.

        An adult, or even an older teenager, unlike a child, should be capable of empathy, and should try to consider things from the other person’s perspective.

        He didn’t need to go get her all hot-blooded. She wasn’t going to leave all that money on the ground. Going in with full intensity is only going to scare her. He could just wait for her friends to dump her, or for her to beg her way back in, and then offer her some calm help when she comes back for the money.

        And not only is 80% objectively too much, it’s the sort of thing that would frighten a person further. Most other people would think that they’re getting scammed.

        An adult might not consider all of those things, but they’d at least know that it would be stupid to try to recruit a person in a way that scares the shit out of her and should make her think you’re trying to scam her or abuse her.

          Once everyone figures out her true value she could probably name her own price with just about any party. He has her locked into his party for the foreseeable future now.

            That’s fine, though, if she leaves after understanding her worth.

            You were just saying that they were going to make 20m on the first day, so even if he has her for one day, and gives her her fair worth, which let’s say is 20%, then he’d have the 16m after one day, and she’d have 4m, as well as an understanding of her value. He’d have set up himself to achieve his goal much faster.

            And if she understands her fair value, as well as his value, she’s not going to leave his team, anyway. 20% of his team is going to be worth more than, let’s say 50% of other teams, and let’s not forget, that’s only if she can actually convince the other teams that she’s worth that much.

            She said in this episode that she couldn’t live on 20%, and if she goes with a different team and demands a lion’s share, that team is going to have to make those same calculations on whether they’ll get enough to live.

            And one more obvious thing, Elymas is going to get the absolute best build. He would have already had it had he been allowed to stay in his family house. He understands everything about the build and can fully explain it, but nobody is willing to listen.

            She’d have the same problem. She’s already had the same problem. That team she was with ignored her contribution and assumed they got the lucky drop only because of themselves.

              Yeah, he could have handled that deal a bit smarter, I suppose. The more he makes the sooner he gets the book and the stronger (and richer) their party becomes.
