Wow, Danmachi really has gotten serious.  Freya is the worst.

Without going into spoilers,  the whole Syr/Freya thing is just largely coming across as irrelevant.     Especially coming off the events of S4 where IMO the series saved itself from a very terrible story arc (S3).    Its still too early to tell,   and unlike some others like ReZero I don't already know what is coming.    I still personally don't think this series was ever able surpass S1,  and has been going downhill since.    S4 came the closest to the level of S1 IMO and now as of S5 Ep 5 we are sliding back down into S3 levels.. or so it seems. 

Again just my .02

Sounds right too me.  I am not a giant DanmachI  fan.  I am a ReZero book reader and this season will be great to the end.

Just got back from a showing of Overlord: the Sacred Kingdom.

Not gonna lie, I can see why IGN gave the movie a bad review.  It's a very compressed adaptation of the light novel that is absolutely no ambassador to anyone who hasn't seen the anime up through the middle of its fourth season.  It cuts out several major scenes, and merges a few others.  Unfortunately one of the scenes it left out was a really important one that explains why the demons absolutely ham it up about Neia's bow being a "rune" weapon, so there are several scenes where demons just engage in dreadful acting about it with zero direct explanation.

It's not a bad speedrun of the story, but it's definitely not for the non-fan.
