    Nah, it’s not gonna end up as bad as that.

    But it will continue in the grand tradition of anime/manga endings by escalating needlessly until the themes are muddled and the plot is a mess.

      The old Slayers anime/light novels fought dark gods then had vacation episodes then fought more dark gods then had more vacation episodes.

        I was just thinking about how good Slayers was lol.

        Imagine having a D&D-inspired fantasy comedy but all the jokes are about characters and slapstick instead of about undercutting its own premise.

          It was truly a good show/movie series and I loved the teasing overlaps where Naga stumbled into the latter anime episodes but of course confused and with her sister not recognizing her because of magic fuckery.
