    The difference between the anime and manga is pretty drastic. In the anime Alpha was able to make John Smith bleed but still lost to him while in the manga Alpha was able to "beat" John Smith but lose to Shadow which shows that she was strong enough to make Cid actually try, which is a milestone in itself.

    Cid thinks everything related to the cult is acting. However I don’t think he though that was acting from alpha. After all alpha and delta grew up together and he would know she would be very hurt by it. It’s the cult and shadow garden that’s an act. Not their relationships. Cid also acted trying to help mitsugoshi which was his childhoods friends / test subjects company meaning he was actively looking out for them.

    AniNews failed to mention that Mistform is an ability that was originally possessed by the Blood Queen. Beta also acquired it after being infected with Elizabeth's Progenitor blood. Alpha learned it due to Beta bringing back a sample of Elizabeth's blood for study as Alpha quickly learned the ability.

    Yeah Black Juggernaut situation is funny and very humiliating had a grand entrance in episode 01 of the 2nd season fighting on par against Yukime, being the Ruler of the Black Tower and it's a downhill fall for him. His highlights are killing grunts then getting involved in a fight with Claire so Cid kicked him down the tower and suffered a defeat, after that Juggernaut was defeated again by Elizabeth inflicted with serious injuries. Then the worst of it all is Juggernaut got killed off screen by Delta in Comedy Spinoff of the Main series. The Dude dying had me laughing for him, ending in a comedic way.

The WN version of this incident was deemed to be the point where the fandom pretty much imploded and divided into 2 (3 since there are those who don't really care about it) and where Cid character turned into a complete asshole, for one group. For me though, it was narratively cohesive and make sense if we take the premise and how he is as an insane chuuni that he has always acted like. The LN added some additions to counter the fact that the WN version has even more plot holes.

    She should have just trusted him. His literally the reason why they still exist why they are as powerful as they are. Why they are as rich as they are etc etc. and yet still failed to support and trust her master. Shadow garden organization is literally for their own benefit in the first place. They literally rode on cid strength and knowledge to operate. Cid literally needs no help to accomplish anything in fact they need him more than cid needs them. In fact cid never needs them at all and just plays along for their own benefit. He literally makes money on his own and all of shadow garden asset are mostly controlled by the higher ups. Cid literally gets zero money or anything from them aside for favours and doing operations that they themselves needed to do in the first place but cid is just conveniently in that situation for some dumb luck or dumb coincidence.

    I really love the change from a carriage to a train. I think its much more epic to have train battles than it is to see a carriage trotting along. I think the train really adds a lot of coolness to the show. That scene immediately after John Smith beat Alpha and she fell off the train and cried after him was completely heartbreaking. I really hope Cid makes it up to her soon. I couldn't leave alpha lying there in the cold, beaten and broken. The immediate change from hostile to love when delta found out who John Smith was was so freaking cute. BOSS!!! Delta will forever be a cinnamon roll. the short I saw of her defeating the guy Cid sent her after was also super funny/cute. The 2 princess's interactions was a nice touch. I'm interested in their story. I wanna see how the silver haired one succeeds and becomes powerful with a beautiful sword. Overall I hate how much the fights changed in the anime. the pacing almost feels completely off compared to the first season. Then again, that's what happens when there's 8 less episodes. Still my favorite anime. I'm hoping for a third season even though we aren't even almost done with this season.

    Light Novel Manga and anime have different takes or I'd say ways of telling the story. Which is fucking amazing in my opinion, we're getting the same story told in different ways from different viewpoints which can add more detail and dept to the other 2. The biggest change is Cid's obviousness in the LN to Manga where LN version he's taking back "his" riches which Mitsugoshi stole from him with his knowledge in his head. Fans didn't like this plot tho so it got changed to saving the world and the company in the manga

I love how Delta can convey so much with so few word’s and how much she loves and trusts Shadow.

    Gonna be honest... This battle was better in the manga. Don't get me wrong, its beautiful in the anime - but it doesn't have the same weight as the manga. In the manga, she demasks Cid, revealing his identity, proves to him that she has grown strong and they have a 'sweet' moment. I loved her last line as well - 'There you go.. turning your back on me again.' It just felt complete.

    I disagree with the people saying the anime didn't do the scene justice. I think the anime did an amazing job, and the people disagreeing aren't looking at it from the perspective of Cid's character, and instead a typical protagonist's. Cid, especially in the anime, is a very obvious larper. He creates a character and attempts to stick to it. That's who he is. He does it every arc in the series. He's also extremely unaware of the world around him, he doesn't want to nor does he believe that any of the events that transpire involving Shadow Garden are any more than his friends playing with him. In the anime, he never breaks the John Smith character, while Alpha is actively managing to hurt him and overrun his defenses, he manages to figure out the weakness to the form and abuse it to defeat her. This is entirely in character for Cid, as he always pursues a "perfect victory" matching his goals. In the LN (Ignore the manga, the anime is based off the LN and the manga is its own thing loosely following the LN) the John Smith facade is broken because Cid is unable to exploit her weakness to a meaningful degree. Had the scene taken place on a train in the other mediums, this result would have happened. As for the "You've grown strong", I don't think its in character for Cid, especially since he has yet to realize that this is anything more than larping and messing around. Its a good line, sure, but it doesn't make sense for the type of person hes established himself as, especially in the context provided.

    Same here. I actually prefer too, being able to hear Alpha's hurt feelings and reaching out to him. I legit feel so bad for her this episode. And Delta is still best girl. Love every scene with her.

    I wish the anime had that acknowledgment of how strong Alpha is and how Shadow truly respects that. Just seeing him tell her how much she's grown is very touching. However, seeing Alpha crumble and have an emotional breakdown just hurts. It is just another moment of another character being so genuine in their behavior that Cid's naivety can be a little grating at times. I get the theme of the show, but I wish at least with those close to him such as Alpha there would be some element of him that shows he cares. I am aware he cares for them, but that is meta-knowledge. A lot of the care these characters see from him is made up in their own heads. I much rather see that to some degree seeing Alpha cry because of him bothers him if only a little. Yeah, he'd still have the same ending, but showing that her pain means something to him would indeed say something about the friendship he fostered with the Seven. I dunno. Seeing Alpha in emotional pain is just something I feel deserves more than what we got. Especially since we're unlikely to see a situation like that again. Even if he knocked her out Vegeta style when she knocked out Kid Trunks in the Buu arc. Something that just says, I care about you, but I am doing this my way. Telling her she grew strong hits, but it just wasn't enough. I honestly, don't think it'd ruin the nature of Cid's character at all to have something more when it comes to the Seven or his sister. Delta is perfect. That is all I can say about her. I like the way the anime, LN, and manga handled it. I can't pick which one I liked better.

    Honestly i think the anime redeems cid more than the light novel since the anime after shows why cid started this whole thing. Though honestly I feel that shadow garden shpuld know that shadow has his own ambitions that may not always align with theirs. The anime even shows how Cid was originally gonna work closely with them amd have fun but since the shades had left him he decided to move on his own while allowing shadow garden to keep itself busy.

    Its funny because this arc is the one that shows how much cid cares about the girls , but the anime just kinda glosses over it. When he initially meets with the fox girl in the manga and finds out about the trade war his first thought is hell yeah mystery man mucking things uo , but that is immediately followed by " oh crap the girls are in a tight corner, i need to help them" Everyone seems to think cid doesnt care about ahadow garden but thats untrue hes just so damned chunni that instead of wanting to make them like him as the oppoosite sex he wants them to think hes cool, hell half of the setup he does for meeting the girls is solely for that reason. Its beyond me how so many people miss that especially since he hings at it multiple times , " I try to keep the things i care about to a minimum but there are always more popping up" refering to the shadow gardens recruitment. Nit to mention that each of the seven shadows and even a few if the numbers have a story about cid taking time to tuck them into bed, or read them stories, or just tell them stuff about his former world, all akwardly tucked into chunni excuses for doing it. Hell the one time the girls face a threat they cant handle (no spoilers) cid gets pissed

    I enjoyed the Anime's portrayal of their difference in power. Between him and Alpha. Where the anime makes it clear that even without his slime magic he can still dominate the fight. That even if they close the gap in power and skill, his expertise and knowledge still far exceeds theirs that he'll turn your new found power against you. Then with Delta, Cid lowering his guard and getting too close that Delta easily sniffed him out was too good. His overconfidence only to get revealed was perfect. Also thanks for doing this, some of the comments on some videos had me believing I was missing a lot.

    I think it’s just another thing for Alpha to learn. He is doing this to save them and just telling them wouldn’t have the same emphasis. He stopped teaching them on this topic after saying he didn’t know much more but the kept going without thinking about how it could turn out. If Cid didn’t do his scheme then the cult would be rich and shadow garden would be hurting with funds and consumers trust. And power should not be the answer to bad businesses 100% of the time because it might not work.

    A friendly reminder to everyone that it would be out of character for Cid to think any of this is more than "just a game" or "killing some bandits", as absurd as that may seem in context. Cid was a self-aware Chuuni in his past life and, unlike many other reincarnation anime, having a new life doesn't mean he immediately starts acting completely differently. He's still a self-aware Chuuni. He treats any evidence that would support his "ad-libbing session" in front of Alpha before she was Alpha as mere coincidences that his Chuuni brain is reading too much into.
