Is this gonna be good?
Just read the manga.
I'm hyped as fuck for this, but I doubt it will be better than the manga.
>>144171432
Thanks for reminding me to read this.
The manga is kind of just a feel good mystic fantasy show. Nothing really happens but the world is extremely comfy.
>B-grade fujoshit that tells west will eat up.
Yeah, it'll be good, at least according to your local animal club.
>>144171717
Holy shit, I hate The Ancient Magus' Bride now

I don't think this word means what you think it means, anon.
I was just reading it
>>144171955
It has fujo art though
>>144171826
Good for you
>>144172202
It doesn't have giant guys with huge spider hands and tiny heads though
>>144172202
>fujo art
it simply is more on the shojo side. stop using buzzwords.
>>144172193
>8 bucks each
I'm kinda jelly but seriously who in their rind mind buys this?
>>144172425
All the male characters seem came straight out of modern BL doujin specially Ruth and Lindel. So yes it is fujo art.

Manga for female readers. Author is a fat female fujoshi.
>>144171285
>Generic shojo/josei shit
No it won't.
>inb4 bait
It's not, the characters are typical shojo heroine being mistreated by a cool dark guy because women are into that
>Studio Wit
If only Otoyomegatari got an adaptation instead of this crap.

By your classification Giselle Alain is fujo too
I don't care, comfy is comfy
It is better than buying GONZO.

You might want to read it before posting shitlord, the guy is kinda awkward but in no way is he mistreating her, heck she's treated like a little princes.
>>144171285
I demand a date.
>>144172931
it's almost as if you haven't actually read it
>>144173104
No worries, it's only a 3-episodes OVA. But yeah this thread is pretty fucking bad so far, I hope it'll get better soon
>>144171285
Dis gonna be good.
I already know what happens next.

Nicknamed only as "The Bride", is the adaptation of Mahoutsukai no Yome work by Studio WiT in a 3 Episode Ova.
The story revolves around a young girl named Chise and her plights while sold to a gruesome looking creature named Elias and sent to England, to live.
>>144173524
>quoque
No, like virtually everything else the manga will be better.
Also the threads will go to shit, the fanbase will expand to contain a vastly greater percentage of retards, it will be the subject of trolling and shitposting. So say goodbye to those occasion comfy threads we had before this was announced.
>>144171285
The beast and the beauty weeb shit edition.
>muh shoujo
There's zero romance in this show. Elias is just her bumbling awkward dad and all the fae just treat her like a child. Chise seems more like a daughteru bait than a self insert bait to me.
The main draw of the series is the magic and the fantasy fairy tale kinda setting.
>Silky won't ever make you a giant delicious sandwich
>>144173369
>guy
It's not a guy.
It never was....
And there's no escape.
There is only her tale and plight.
>>144171285
It's your self insert josei fantasy with fujoshit appeal. Not for male.
>>144173940
would you prefer it if i called Elias an entity? being?, what you propose as the proper way to speak of him without using his name?
>>144173862

Fuck you. Go to your goblin rape threads and leave us alone.
Its gonna be pretty, thats for sure. But since it doesnt follow the manga story im afraid it will mostly end up being irrelevant.
Ill still watch it.
>>144174138
Never realized how much of a tomboy she looks.
>>144174138
Irrelevant? What do you mean?
>>144173869
You are insulting beauty and the beast
>>144174218
Well, is just my own way of seeing things. If the story doesnt follow the main plot, then it adds nothing. Its an adaptation that counts more like side material, not a true adaptation that will show viewers what happens in the story and how.
So, obviously ill watch it since i like the manga, but at the end i feel like ill have nothing from it (except for the entertaiment, as always).
>>144173885
>There's zero romance in this show
there's ex-junkie girl and scar dude.
>>144174138
His head looks like cow skull.
>>144174337
Eh, I meant it more like among the main characters but I guess you're right.
There's also the Leann'shie and the old man.;____;
>>144171285
does this get good
tried to read the first chapter
almost fell asleep
>>144173885
>There's zero romance in this show.
I see you bait. I counter it.
>>144174461
It's kind of a comfy mystery/fantasy series without a real plot. The main characters go around and solve problems among fair folk and humans and sometimes it explores the setting.
>>144174461
Its not a fast paced full of action story.
Is a comfy tale about a selfish, bland girl and her quest to feel better about herself, while she discovers a shit ton of magical creatures.
But im guessing the plot will get better once she finally goes Hogwarts.
>>144174484
The whole bride thing was a ruse. And no one else is romantically interested in Chise.
>>144174401

maybe, maybe not. it depends on your view of what marriage is, or what it means

What's the point of her going to Hogwarts? She's a magus, not a wizard and magic kills her anyway.
>>144174028

>magic kills her anyway.
the uncontrolled flow of magic kills her. what better way to learn control of magic than by learning with magi?
We'll get doujins, right?
>>144174805
Probably to
1) Have magic not killing her anymore.
2) To teach her about the things Ellias cant teach her.
3) Because probably the director or someone there is a sketchy fucker and wants Chise.

Actually, it's for boys.
Not that the classification holds any importance anyway, since girls do read boy-stuff, and boys read girl-stuff nowadays.
The manga is pretty good but sometimes it falls to much in the same shoujo antics.
>>144174381
Cow skull doesn't have canines. It is a wolf skull with horns.
>>144174401
Don't remind me about them.

>>144175182
>Actually, it's for boys.
Not that anon, but it is made for girls not boys
manga isn't shoujo it's Josei.
Also. Elias is bride grooming her.
I recall the storm about Usagi Drop.
>>144175620
>bride grooming
>Usagi Drop
nice bait
I wonder if girls actually fantasize with monsters taking her like that, or if they would get scared if it actually happens.
>>144175603
>>144175620
It was first published in a shonen magazine
>>144175698
I'm a boy and I fantasize about that, does it count?
>>144175698
women aren't as obsessive about looks, thats how the stereotype of gold diggers/grave robbers came about. they are drawn by power and mysteriousness as much as they are by looks
>>144175698
As a fujoshi, yes we do fantasize about that. Why do you think Twilight is so good.
>>144175975
>women aren't as obsessive about looks
Do you know that when he isn't in his monster form, he is a beautiful young male. So in his human form he is hot

I want it to be, but I just don't have any faith in adaptations of manga to be anything above average anymore.
I'm tired of the slow-mo shots lifted straight from manga panels and held way too long. That shit doesn't actually work but it keeps getting pushed in damn near every manga adaptation anyway.
>>144171285
What's it about?
>>144177106
>I want it to be, but I just don't have any faith in adaptations of manga to be anything above average anymore.

Yeah, because THAT has a flawless track record.
>>144177251
It's a prequel

I swear its like every manga Im reading is being adapted.

Only a three ep OVA. Not a full season, but yeah.

>Just read the manga.

>>144172931
>>Generic shojo/josei shit

The manga kinda fizzled into typical shoujo romance after a while which was a bit disappointing.
>>144177546

>>144174329
>>144173862
Isn't it a prequel?
>>144177737
You mean monster of the week?
>>144172193
Where did you get it? yatta? Empik? I never buy anything like that so I don't even know where to search
>>144173104
It's ova, not tv series, it won't happen
Not like there are threads so often
Wew, seems like I've accidentally read fujoshit.
I do like it a lot though.
>>144174138
It does though, watch the PV.
>>144172981
Never lol the studio would be mad doing that or it wouldnt do it justice something like this cant be adapted just like vagabond
>>144177351
PV looked stellar though.
I don't understand how this is a girl's manga? It is basically curse/magic/folklore creature of the week?
PV looked great, skull guy looks badass, and cute tomboyish looking girl.
WIll watch.
I never really like the fujo eyes thoughs
>>144177737
While I actually do enjoy the relationship between Elias and Chise, it's secondary to the beautiful art and the folklore.
>>144171285
This manga is hella fucking CUTE
>>144181143
It has my favorite art, thats a given.
>>144181235

>/xxxholic/natsume yuujincho/kino no tabi
A-Are you serious?
>>144181839
It's kind of a slice-of-lifey living in a fairy tale english countryside solving magical problems of the week with character issues inbetween.
There's not really an overarching plot except for the main character's development.
>>144182174
Well i guess the plot will end up being about defearing the jew and finding Chise lil brother.
Younger Brother Rule of fiction dictates he will be possesed or something.
>>144171285
Rape?
>>144182296
Stop. Elias is pure.
>>144172931
10/10, you caught a lot of people, you deserve a (You) for your accomplishment.
>>144182264
Even that doesn't seem like plot endgame material. I guess it'll end up in Chise becoming an independent magus or something.

>>144182496
>>marriage is only about fucking
Where did you pull that from? Elias openly admitted he was just taking her in because he was curious about humans and he saw her as a pet, not that he had any plans for her. He doesn't even know what love is.
Elias sometimes makes my fedora tip by itself
>>144173940
He probably has a thick wendigo dick.
>>144176745
IT'S CALLED HANDSOME YOU FAGGOT
>>144182493
She's a former banshee. I don't think one wants to hear her wailing, even if the banshees in this setting only cry because of people in their household being dead instead of causing people to die.
>>144182525
Fuck off.
>>144182587
A man can ship, even if he doesn't work in FedEx.
is this comparable as far as comfiness goes to things like spicy wolf or blood alone? I'm starved for a sweet romance manga with all this grimdark shit and comedy comin out
>>144182740
She changed forms. Magical beings can do that sometimes.
>>144182893
Well, the spriggan changed her form. But I don't think he turned her into a new kind of fairybeing.
>>144182893
If it were that easy then the Leanansidhe would have just transformed into some other type of fairy when she fell in love.
>>144182855
It has a bunch of drama around the MC but the rest is magical folklore stuff. It's not exactly them just living their lives in peace.
The setting and the art really make it rather unique and comfy though.
>>144183023
>>144182966
But her being in love is usual to her species. Silke went from a mourner to someone who just wanted a home, so she became a home keeping entity. Love Vampire still wanted to love, which is what her type does.
>>144181723
>>144181780
Would like more anime like this, with the MC being a shapeshifter
Does anyone have the english volumes? Is the translation good?
I'm not sure if I should buy it in english or my native language edition. It's slightly cheaper here than to import but I think it might be better with the english terminology.
this made me realise that I'd love a show about ancient powerful being to self-insert in. No harems. Something like Overlord, but no retarded game mechanics and cringey inner monologue of a stupid teenager. Or should I say something like Mahouka with the MC being an eldritch powerful being, though with less autism.
>>144183489
What language?
>>144183538
Never ever because nips cannot selfinsert into that shit
>>144183564

>>144183753
Never heard of this, thanks.
I hope i won't spend a lot of CBLN here
>>144183747
Well, I almost always self-insert in the coolest guy in the show, though I guess this part was redundant in my post. I would just want a show/manga from the point of view of ancient powerful being.

>>144184445
Are you kidding? They just got through an adventure with an old one.
>>144184650
Nothing really happened though. She bewitched Chise but she came back and got a magic pelt. Then she bewitched some kid, they talked a bit and Chise got back the kid.
>>144171285
For real? Aw shit.
Good time to catch up.
So what exactly is Elias?
>>144184650
Yea, and just like Chise's recovery and the story with the vampire, it felt very low stake and predictable. Just another forced mini-drama of the week.
Can we go back to interesting world building through character-driven adventure with our MC please?

Ah fuck you studio wit. Why does one of the worst studios get to adapt one of my favorite
>>144174138
It looks like the most low effort attempt studio has had so far. Completly flat compared to their other works and carries none of the atmosphere the manga has. At least based on the pvs
>>144186439
I completely disagree in regards to the "not the same manga atmosphere/feeling" with you. It felt quite similar for me. But i cant talk about the studio efforts because i dont know what other adaptations they did.
>>144186439
WIT should've picked Makihara to direct this desu. Empire of Corpses, while shit plot-wise, had great and mystic atmosphere similar to Mahoutsukai's.

>>144187938
It depends on the series. Honestly though, I think the portrayal of magic and the fantastical is the best part of this.
>>144176745
He can look however he wants. Hell, he turned into a white haired Chise in the last chapter just for shits and giggles.
>>144171285
it's marketed as a sort of romance series, but I really enjoy it more as a father-daughter type relationship
>>144188912
It's very clearly not a father/daughter dynamic between them. They don't know enough about the other.
>>144182855
it's rather light on the romance, but it's still very sweet
Some of the magic stuff is a little dark, though.
only a chapter in so far and this seems to be a pretty good read so far.
>>144176349
This page >>144176745
Says the human face is just an illusion.
>>144188950
Teacher/student then? I just mean they're not really the kind of pairing that I see as an equal romantic relationship yet. He's often times carrying her away at the end of chapters princess-style, like when your kid is tired and you take them to bed.
