Everything GREAT About: Konosuba | Season 1

this video is brought to you by the four dollar patreon tip more on that at the end of the video double scenery shot chasma trash relatable to a huge amount of the audience who've experienced the joys of all night gaming sessions also while i got you here do me a favor and leave a comment would you it really like stupidly helps these videos grow so it'd be very much appreciated by your boy [Music] they really didn't have to take the time and effort to animate the whole box coming apart just like his life does here but they did it anyway [Music] so i'm just going on record to say that i love the useless aqua brilliant voice actress fine as anything and amazing facial reactions to create a wealth of memes conor super has some of my favorite of all time ops they've always got perfect music gorgeous visuals via animation and or cgi always done to a very high standard and they managed to balance comedy with team building each and every time which are two of my favorite parts of konosuba in general [Music] gets a lot of stick but right here shows that he is actually a decent ladder [Laughter] while dealing with the recently departed just falls apart as soon as she finds something funny even as insensitive as it is it's that part of her personality which really appeals to me how it's all about her since that's what makes her so funny [Music] enjoys putting the twist on the whole narrative of being reborn in another world by addressing it in a comedic way such as this made even better with her totally overselling it i never noticed this disclaimer the first two times i watched this season feel free to pause if you want to read it also it makes it more funny now that i've noticed it this time since aqua clearly holds her hand rather obviously over the warning which in the hoist casima oh [Music] [Music] has to be its impeccable animated facial expressions each and every character is done perfectly to demonstrate their own individual traits ideal example of what i just mentioned in the previous win for being a few years old now the level of cgi in this anime is no joke the water in this anime straight up looks like a ps4 game that's crazy [Music] [Applause] [Music] this jrpg video game reference see now this line right here you won't find basically any male character saying anime and it's why casual master is one of my favorite characters a true student of gender equality aqua being aqua and the mean producing machine that she is with yet another video game reference peppered in from this anime [Music] one of the best parts of kona super as well in terms of the comedic value is that everyone is friendly it just makes each episode feel very light and fluffy aiding the comedy i mean even the villains are hilarious and approachable you can take a win for existing is what you can do such great foreshadowing and world building right here since this is heavily explored during the second season to an absolutely hilarious degree more info at the end of the video but if you want season two covered do be sure to pledge on my patreon and vote it in this two minute long scene taking the opportunity to set out the rules of this world when it comes to adventuring giving both of them their classification and the best part is that it's not ignored later on instead his luck attribute plays a consistent factor among other things mentioned here a lot of the music in this anime is loki pretty great really striking the balance between comedy and video game type songs [Music] even though they start off at loggerheads and that's often the case moving forwards i always enjoyed their little bit of time together right at the start just the two of them working together of course that just gets better when the other two join them but it's a sweet start still very indicative of the start of an rpg where you have nothing and build up from there [Music] perfect example of what i literally just wind where we witnessed this very sweet moment between the two of them probably one of my top 10 eds of all time as it's so stupidly relaxing and well put together it's even got these claymation looking shots which are no doubt cgi but don't even look like it and of course the song is so very much filled with jill [Music] giving a legit great reason as to why the city is so peaceful and why they're able to concentrate so much on silly little quests and personal problems instead of the demon kingdom [Applause] just so good oh my god the timing is just so good on that and it becomes a running gag no less prime example of the voice acting prowess of aqua's brilliant voice actress god she's so good take another one here in general for all of their performances but obviously i'll shout out the best coming down the pipe as we go [Music] the build up to moments like this is exactly why kona subaru and his comedy is so beloved by fans it's that speech it's the amazing looking attack that's incoming and then the dead silence before she gives apologies it's just perfect one another speaking slightly in the background of another conversation these are the things i noticed for the very first time since i started watching anime that only seemed to occur in kona suba and to a small degree in other more recent anime point being it's a great source of comedy as chasma whips in a quick funny one liner here and there gorgeous bird's eye shot of the sea in fact that she slightly scribbled over an already poorly drawn rendition of kazima on her recruitment poster having the explosive fainting megamin in this anime is a massive fat win [Music] half the win is for her voice actress and that cute and hungry as heck line but also that prime example of how some of their music benefits the comedy moments so well running on the spot [Music] there's something so strangely and inherently funny about that toes casually looking up at the ever darkening sky above him as she casts a spell gotta adore how kona super totally doesn't mess around when it comes to animation even though they could take so many shortcuts for the sake of comedy and not many people would care i swear that's so good just the slow slide down the hill after she's collapsed my word they know how to truly pull off [Music] it funny sounds as though chasm's voice actor is half laughing as he burst into this line and how she delivers hers beforehand so calmly is equally perfect absolutely one of the best moments hands down for me is kazuma physically struggling against her while speaking super casually as she tries to sell her abilities to him while attacking him [Music] [Music] i'll be honest i love darkness an unreasonable amount especially her rather eccentric quirks again stupidly great voice actress for her as well i love kuna super toy ganga [Music] foreign over eagerness at times like this is just all part of the insane charm this one has over exaggerations at times like this is just all part of the insane charm this one has [Music] come comedy aside it's interesting how they use these gaming elements but always strive to keep them relevant to the anime where they could be so easily forgotten but instead he's still using steel into season two [Music] oh the best part is that he's so overjoyed with it there's no faked sense of embarrassment towards the girl awkwardly handing it back and playing it cool he's just outrageously pleased by the result then we get that glorious patented chasma panty swell to celebrate and not to be forgotten that attention to detail is wonderful where we see a bustling market adventurers clad in all kinds of different gear depending upon their class being weird and wonderful enough to come up with random ideas such as attacking cabbages [Music] another of my favorite elements to kona is definitely shared with my favorite moments from a lot of other anime or it's up there anyway and that's down time scenes i used to love that in stein's gay i love it in black clover my hero academia and so on where they just chill between quests and such adore it here as well [Music] say what you want but that into episode 3 is just filled with wholesomeness that lovely calming song in the background as the three girls chat and laugh together has chasm of threats about the situation he's cut himself into but really seems to enjoy having them as his party it's really the physical comedy instances that are my favorite mega means struggling to hold on to kazma if she wants to join his crew aqua shaking him and then pushing her off like here just makes it all the more hilarious i must admit i never actually recalled that he changed clothing originally so take a win here for this rpg element that i essentially missed the first time around somehow unless my memory is randomly failing me crazy amount of intricate detail in each of these quest posters [Music] [Music] it's also lovely in a comedy to see team building like this where aqua and darkness are busy and so these two got together and decided to improve her explosion magic and became quite the close team over the course of weeks or months [Music] oh it's so good his incredibly stressed out statement because she keeps on blowing up his castle every day perfect opportunity to point out the earlier when i was talking about where he chucks in a very quick statement when addressed see what i was talking about earlier on when i mentioned how even the bad guys in this anime aren't really bad and as such it's such a wholesome anime because it ends up really just being filled with pure light and it's such a joy to watch sure one of the lovely examples of kazuma being a legit nice and considerate teammate built up by the time they spent together going back and forth from his castle getting to know each other [Applause] [Music] absolutely i totally forgot that this happens as well out of nowhere which makes it even better kawaii just like in video games i do prefer the times when the team is poor just always seems more fun making money and having nothing then it does getting rich quick and the same sentiment falls into anime for me where i enjoy it more as they struggle to put food on the table rather than be insanely rich very quickly am i weird for feeling that way comment down below not gonna show it but all i'll say is one word it's so brilliant that she's so quick to resort to physically trying to grapple with him at the first sign of not getting away the need to call out what is quite an innocuous statement in order to prove that these women in particular do indeed actually need to use the bathroom from time to time gender equality [Music] oh [Music] the crew legit feeling sorry for aqua after what she just went through just shows they really are a proper team even way back in episode 5. just check out those effects in that smooth as heck animation kind of super not be joking around right here also in terms of world building i always loved that this guy was in the same situation as chasma just thought it's a nice addition to the story really [Laughter] the team actually standing up for kazama rather than just sitting back and letting events unfold without doing anything darkness and mega mint especially i really like that added element to this scene yes shamelessly launching himself into action and knocking him out is exactly the beautiful laughter i needed at 1am right in this part of the script it really was 1am when i wrote it oh this right here how glorious a statement he speaks so worthy of a win for his first occurrence gender equality my biggest regret from an earlier anime sims video which i made on this anime like four years ago was sending this moment mainly because it was seriously so hard to make a video on but yeah his creepy fingers are a clear win final instance of not running on the spot deserving of its own standalone win for how long they animated them running away for well she said she would do it my mental thought processes told me that she didn't and then she did it and it was as amazing as i'd hoped it'd be [Music] going first person like it's no big deal whatsoever oh also this dude is king from one punch man season two and bjorn from finland saga which if you haven't seen you should watch my two videos on it great anime that went under the radar [Music] sadly [Music] to go out there and cast explosions on his castle even after everything that happened previously is so mega me yeah yes [Music] i remember that so well the best thing about it is that he built it up to be something huge eventually where they come to storm his castle for a battle just like it would have been in every other anime but in kona super awkward just immediately disarms the curse and they crack on with life oh then aqua pretty much does the exact same thing i just praised her for and while he's talking god i love that since anime never do that she casts her spells on him without a second's hesitation freaking him out meanwhile the guy just desperately wants to go about life as he would in any normal anime or rpg you take out the minions first and then the boss unless your aqua that is crazy dedication to put this much effort into drawing every character standing behind them for this very short scene also nice bit of foreshadowing here for what it turns out that her turn undead spell actually does probably the cutest explosion and then after explosion in the entire anime this absolutely wouldn't be a miss in my hero academia this poor bad guy just wants a bad guy and yet can't do it because this girl keeps giving everyone the wrong idea constantly [Music] between the animation and music kona super pretty effortlessly switches gears here to a way more serious battle tones genuinely beautiful looking stance and shot right there [Music] is so incredibly wholesome to the overall anime getting the first bit of genuine hero and adventurer praise that he's been waiting for all along when i first saw this i was half disappointed that they were being propelled into riches so early on like i mentioned in the previous win and then when they dropped this twist i was very pleasantly surprised [Music] reading into each of them and their reactions and expressions is beyond perfect because he knows full well that there's something they're not telling him all of their winter outfits especially darknesses [Music] animation quality is so legit [Music] [Music] oh it's so incredibly sweet and endearing that while he's recapping and complaining about his experiences over the past six episodes then he actually starts to tear up probably because he's going to lose the friends he does actually care for a lot and then the epic level twist that brings him back into the world of adventures and hop for crazy women not asking someone if they're awake when they're awake and to understand that wind you'd need to have seen any of my anime since videos [Music] as funny as aqua's immediate freakout was i was worried i had missed something and then luckily good old kona suba put me at ease with the following roughly one minute explanation of how they met wiz this here is a great example of the word play often found in this anime puns plays on words nicknames and the like all things i almost never see anywhere else straight up reacting to the news within like 0.2 seconds of having heard it [Music] one of the most beautiful things about this moment is that almost exactly 60 seconds later it's followed up by the second well deserved slap [Music] whiz can also take her own win for existing but also because she really goes against the grain just as so many of these characters do it's like the monkey took the common tropes and then managed to pretty much reverse them in and aqua finally getting a step up in life and mega min and darkness joining them for the first time permanently in the house also another element i liked about how the story was set up was that the man who told them that they could live there also essentially left the door open to be able to kick them out one day allowing for a change of pace or location [Music] simply beautiful the calm set up and sparkling joy in her face and then basically back to grappling with him and let's be real how many other anime would have the girl try and get him to go to the bathroom with her because she's scared of the ghosts [Music] moments by turning down the guild reward for solving a problem caused by aqua in the first place and then cleaning the gravestone of the now departed ghost that haunted them [Music] that reaction it should be illegal to like anime so much comment down below how much you love kona super and why story i can't show it for obvious reasons but this entire place earns the anime its very own standalone win for very lovely sights [Music] everyone's sitting around together chatting and enjoying a fine meal i have no idea why this appeals to me so much in every anime i love me so [Music] this anime loves to foreshadow more than most other anime [Music] his reactions are everything in this scene and honestly for me it's one of the most funny of the entire anime just perfectly executed for maximum hilarity as it unfolds out of everything from the past three minutes this is all i can get away with actually showing but it remains one of my favorite scenes i've laughed my ass off and the anime gets a maximum and rare two wins [Music] again it pains me that this is all i can get away with showing but you know the scene it's brilliant as chasma turns all deadly serious his face hilarious as it changes and he takes them on to let her go free who came in to alter his dreams take the wind stupidly and ridiculously cute nothing else to say ah her and aqua really are the best also that friend of mega means at some point oh vote for season two on my patreon please brave adventurer right here even if it is just because he doesn't want to give up his new and comfy home but still he has his moments of actual bravery and that just speaks to his character genuinely great cgi [Music] i'm a big fan of how each character has their quirks but how they do often toss them aside at moments like this showing actual character growth and not being walking tropes to their thing every single episode so far they've all pretty much had moments where they break the mold over the past 10 episodes if i recall [Music] jesus get out of here with that i totally took for granted how amazing the animation in cgi actually is in this anime that's nuts that looked so good and i feel like for an anime to invest so much time and effort in the animation and cgi end of things that they should absolutely be rewarded with another maximum two wins awards for awesomeness in the face of adversity [Music] unexpected plot twist everyone from the town banding together in order to stop the machine before it self-destructs and even if they do so for hilarious reasons it's still awesome to see them treated as more than background filler and instead actual characters with their own will we get a wonderful brief moment of world building witnessing a futuristic looking city before it was trashed by this thing and beyond that his carefree attitude towards the whole thing is he explains what happened makes it all the better so good ache because i've been laughing so much and this is the third time i've watched this and it still gets me every time take one more here for the most stunning looking and sounding mega mint special [Music] exoplanet and then they wrap it up with an awesome end of season plot twist so confident that they would get a season two and thank goodness that they did they can take one final win here for a great season filled to the brim with excellence and one of the best first seasons i've seen for a comedy i'll also now take the opportunity to let you all know that a four dollar pledge over on my patreon linked down
