Darth Main. That part sounds better when they add Dark side soundtrack and force choke sound effects

I always thought the "Main" spelling was a nod to Mainz Germany where Johannes Guttenberg, the inventor of the printing press, was born. I had no Idea that it was the incorrect spelling all along. When I first saw "Myne" I was mad because I thought THAT was the wrong translation. The more you know, I guess. I still like "Main" better, thogh.

Can we call this ability the Rainbowgan?

I know the episode doesn't really do enough to make it clear, but the white robed priest is "technically" higher ranked than the blue robed head priest. I can't remember if they explain it in the next few episodes or not. It's been quite a while since I watched this show, so I don't remember everything that happens up to episode 26.

Great reaction, first time I have seen you almost jump out your chair 😂 So the episode has a bit of a translation issue, the white robed guy should be the High Bishop not priest, who is the overall head of the church Then the Head Priest who then runs the day to day activities under him.

It cleary explain that the high priest is above head priest : when beno explain church hiearchie we could seen a pyramide where gray pieste are below blue prist in midle and withe priest above

azope

head prist is the manager of the team of prist where the high prist is the owner of the place

You’re right it does explain it with the graphic. I was trippin. I don’t see how the head priest can sweep this under the rug and make it so it never happened. I find it odd that the head priest seems to have more authority when he doesn’t…

FreshestAnime

Yeah it happens sometimes, it’s fairly rare though. Sometimes anime gets too wild lol. It’s odd that the High Priest doesn’t just veto the Head Priest bringing in Main…

FreshestAnime

So when Lebron James tried to kill Jeanie Buss, Rob Pelinka still brought him on the team? (Sorry for the basketball analogy lol) I’m confused. Why would the High Priest allow the Head Priest to still bring in Main???

Really just tells us how bad of a situation the temple is in. He believed he could get away with taking her by force when she found out her parents were poor which obviously failed. However, they still needed her money and mana, which turned out much greater than they expected as seen by the head priest's question about how she's alive.

IronDestiny

So are you going to do the OVA next week?

wahninomae

My thoughts on the overreaction from the parents and from Turi about the nobles was how bad can it be.. Oh boy as soon as they met shit just got real LOL. Seriously though how can you watch this week by week and not binge all the way through when all the episodes are available? As soon as I get hooked I'd be done within that same day.

azope

They realy realy need her and the high priest just is not that powerfull and use a lot of money

azope

And i am prety sure he want use her until she is dry and after totaly dry her just send her in the garbage

Honestly I think season one was alright (from a novel reader's perspective). However I've heard plenty of people who watched the anime that read the first books after that the novel is to slow. I however like the time spent with the family, build up, and world building. Although even big fans of the over all novels have told me they almost dropped it in the beginning. I guess I'm just weird there. The story just get's better and better. Season 3 is going to be crazy honestly anime's only are going to be surprised.

FreshestAnime

Honestly didnt expect the high priest to go full snob and Im glad he got put in his place. Fuck that dusty old entitled bastard

FreshestAnime

Yeah, hopefully during the week and then we start season 2 on Friday, no promises though.

One annoying thing about being a novel reader is the names they use in the official subs. In the novels Main is called Myne (which is also the approved English spelling from the original author), the head prist is called the high priest and the high priest is called the high bishop (which emphasises that the position is above the head priest/high priest). However in the first episode the official subs actually had her name as Myne and the head priest was translated high priest until evil santa made his appearance and they changed the translations.

To be fair the translator the novel loves the story works hard and often talks about trying to make sure it's written like the author intended. They work so hard to get stuff out every week and put love and care into every chapter. Crunchyroll/Funimation is well known for butchering translations to make culture war comments and famous for not paying well or caring about quality. I mean they never even fixed the point in goblin slayer where their were supposed to be credits but just shows a birds eye for like 3 minutes.

That's what you'll say when you see it. I hope you don't consider it a spoiler since it's an editing error and has nothing to do with the story at all.
