Drifters

In the age of isekai, why isn't it more popular?

Because it wasn't very good and the manga updates once in a decade.

Who said it isn't. I consider it the best isekai anime in my own ranking; S2 is definitely happening when they have more content to adapt, I enjoyed the two OVAs. Also, the manga doesn't update that much, people say the mangaka is slow (Berserkfags laugh in the distance).

>S2 is definitely happening when they have more content to adapt

I sure hope so, it seemed to me that S1 was not met very well and I'm sincerly worried for possible continuation.

>there are people who think Jean gets reformed and won't die like a bitch.

shit is almost as slow as fucking berserk or hxh that's why. isekai is for mindlessly shoveling into your brain it needs to be released regularly.

It's because Hoods Entertainment essentially doesn't have anyone to answer to and Gahosha would appreciated the cross-promotion. They literally called the studio Hoods Drifters Studio.

Best girl passing by.

Unless I'm remembering wrong it sold very well. Japan loved it. There's just not enough source material.

What, why? Do you think I hadn't read Hellsing? I know 95% of characters will be brutally murdered at the end.
How is it related to my adoration for the hysterical, blood-thursty, half-burned girl?

I lost track of the story and lost interest.

I dont even know what the author is trying to tell (or if he is simply adding random combats for fun and nothing else)

Oh, cool then! I remember the interest dropping quickkly as it was airing, but maybe that was just western media. Nice to hear.

Where have you stopped?

After they rescued the dwarves things started to get uninteresting to me and last I remember from the raws is that they seem to be stuck on a castle siege for what seems forever. Did I miss something cool?

Well, rescuing the dwarves was really just a start. It's basically really a typical isekai, as the main characters collect allies and create army to conquire more and more. I would recommend you to watch the anime at least, it goes furture then you've read, and see if you want more. It gets more and more badass as the scale of battles increases.

>endless amount of important persons throughout history to isekai
>could possibly see shit like Orwell interacting with Mao, or Casanova seducing Thatcher, Rommel shitting on Cao Cao, sky's the limit
>instead we get to see only people from glorious nippon do interesting shit while the few non japanese characters like Hannibal and Billy the Kid are stuck on the sidelines doing nothing
>two people from WW2 get isekai-ed together with a plane and an entire goddamn aircraft carrier
>they're both Japanese, so neither the plane nor the boat is anything good considering what was available in that time period

Drifters is an interesting isekai that immediately throws away all potential it might have had to bring in one mediocre nip after the other.

>Holy Grail War Isekai
>The Big J is present and kicking ass
>the literal Hitler was isekaid as well
Aside from the blatant Nipwank, it's good

>S2 is definitely happening when they have more content to adapt,
They fucked up big time here. They had about 7-8 episodes worth manga content. All they needed to do was to wait a little bit more. But instead they did those 3 OVA episodes. Now they have like 5 episodes worth of content at best. So season 2 gets pushed back further and further. Someone should be fired for that stupid as fuck decision.

It's the one of the best isekai out there right now for multiple reasons. For one the mc ain't a virgin neet who got transported to a fantasy world and became a god there. Toyohisa has actual character, morals and ideals. He is an underdog, but still a badass with spine and the ability to make decisions. And the shows setup of some powerful beings using historical figures to play some sort of a war game is a better excuse for an isekai setting than your avarage trapped in an mmo game like world for no reason at all. Also, Drifters is more high fantasy and less mmo rpg, like most isekai are nowadays. And then there is the fact that the mc and the rest of the heroes are underdogs and pretty much powerless, while the villains are pretty much all overpowered. This puts more emphasis on the heroes having good teamwork and strategy to make it a fair fight. Meanwhile most isekai shows have the mc be the level 110 god like powerhouse, that is followed by a harem of sluts and a smartphone. So yeah, Drifters is the most original and creative modern isekai. It's a shame it didn't become more popular. I blame the slow author and the incompetent anime team.

AWAKEN MY MASTERS!

Manga was out there for years and it's not very popular either. Also, I dont really see much flaws in anime, I personally enjoyed it greatly. Not to mention probably the best opening (both in terms of music and visuals) in 2016.

The chapter takes forever to come out.

I meant incompetent in planning it out. Like this user said: They have a slow ass manga, but instead of waiting for enough content to come out, they keep making pointless OVA's.

All the conflict in the anime is massively contrived and feel super forced, I absolutely hated that.

Great animation and music, too bad they're wasted on boring characters.

Because next chapter never. And not enough loli kemonomimi slaves for your average weeb.

I found teh conflict pretty interesting, in fact, both the fact that racist empire was shown less like "pure evil" and more like "strong state for it's people", and the conflict of the Drifters and the Ends, there both sides have moral persons and complete bastards and are devided by the opposition of ambition and despair instead of something more generic.

Two teams of evenly matched isekai'd people is the highest IQ form of isekai. it's even IQer than making the villain isekai'd with similar cheat powers to the MC, because with teams, you know they can kill off a character or two so it adds stakes.

>Takes forever to update
How long until Toyo somehow survives and get founded by the dog people Scipio found?

The conflict is fine. It is more interesting than generic neet gets isekaid with his smartphone and has to defeat the evil overlord. Two teams of isekaid historical figures (one team focusing on power while other focuses on smarts) used to fight in some sort of a chess game. Now that is the most interesting isekai has been in the last 10 years.

Lewd.

Yes.

Technically he's not even a trap, though a few characters were confused about his gender at first. He's just very, very sweet.

His boyfriend was very sexy too.

And pretty.

>Also, the manga doesn't update that much, people say the mangaka is slow
>mangaka is slow
it's Hirano, anybody who was following Hellsing when it was being published know the pain of waiting months inbetween chapters

>Toyohisa has actual character, morals and ideals
>has morals
he has ideals that's true

He does respect his enemies enough to give them a proper burial. And he keeps his word. Compared to Nobunaga, he is a saint.

His moral compass is different from the one modern western viewer can approve, but he has one for sure. Nobunaga stated a number of times that it's aproblem for them.

Castle siege lasted like a chapter...then he adds an okama mastermind to his party and takes over a country that was founded by Hitler, I mean literal Hitler who was likely a Drifter but killed himself before his own people could turn on him. Anyway he takes over the country and has a few run ins with some of Jesus Christ's minions. Jesus decided he's gonna come at him with everything he has so the good guys basically drat anyone in the country that can hold a rifle and pike and have them start digging trenches and prepare to defend against an overwhelm force. The defense holds for a few chapters but the lines get shattered because Jesus Christ has a platoon of copper armored giants. MC orders a retreat and is covering the retreat by launching a suicide run with his dwarves against Jesus Christ as a diversion. Last chapter has the MC chatting with the last dwarf left alive as they await their deaths by kobolds.

>he doesn't like Kobolds getting tricked into raiding a capital then trapped in a building and burned alive

Tar flows faster than the rate thus Manga updates. It's has an OVA series ala hellsing as well though

maybe because of the fact that it's been forever since last update?

Because it's shit

If I wasn't already a fan, ypu'd seel me Drifters in no time. Great job!

Not a self insert power fantasy pandering Otaku with trashy waifu who want to suck MC dick number 543638. Look at GS everything is suck compare to Drifters but people eat it up because muh waifu priestess, cow girl, elf girl, sword maiden

Yes, but Drifters have Olminoobs, tsundere Joan, gothic loli... A bit less waifus then the averege isiaki has, but not like there's none.

this

it is

Because jesus christ is the evil guy and occident can't really handle that

I think if we somehow get to the revelation part, fucking lazy Kouta, they can use Buddha if they chicken out

If he chikens out, then it will be someone like Moses, ST. Peter, some egyptian guy or anti-christ.

Honestly, it looks like she is going to become the MC's love interest.

The problem is they are just girls, not waifus, none of them wants to suck MC's rod while one of them want to literally burn him to ashes.

Why did they cancel season 2?

But it IS self insert power fantasy. My main issue in fact was how childishly "cool" the mc was. He was made to appeal to people who think they'd be epic crazy warriors.
>heh nothing matters but the kill...
>gets stabbed and kills guy anyway because hes le CRAZY warrior omg
>heh even if I die I'll take your head...
>stands in the middle of shrapnel blast but it okay because edge
Extremely childish show overall. I'm sure it's a hit with teens who want a false sense of grit and suffering.
"omg I'd be like that just cutting through everyone no matter what happened"

not enough material so far for an S2, maybe for 6 episodes so far, the author is an old lazy guy

Because it's actually good. Isekaifags don't like that

GS is way better than this shit. This shit just has a better anime though.

Filler arc for the first half of the season sounds great at least.

That's edge, not self insert power fantasy

I can wait I don't want this becoming another bland Hellsing animated

>Isekaifags don't like that
But we do. Yours truly, isekaifag isekafagson.

How can I be a fag if I'm a little girl?

To be human is to be a fag. And I meant me, I'm the isekaifag.

Just 80 more years for S2 guys, who else /hyped/ here!

Sure thing, kid.

>Honestly, it looks like she is going to become the MC's love interest
What?

Well, it's written for Japanese audience. Not for you, Gaijin.

Toyohisa isn't a teenage neet from modern day japan, who compares everything to the rpg games he has played, so it literally isn't a self insert show. Also where is the power fantasy? Sure he is a good fighter, but he ain't the smartest guy around, and he ain't the strongest. And everything you said in the greentext is literally anime. All anime swordsmen are edgy dudes who can take a lot of punishment but still win. Leave newfag, and never come back.
