| What pedophile isekai did you meant? :D |

| I think the relationship between the 2 main characters is that of friendship moreso than romantic. The previous ep really emphasized that friend-like bond between them as well. Also what is it about the show that you find thought-provoking? I'm not disagreeing with you, I just don't get much from just calling it things w/o explaining why it's like that. |

Apparently the MC who is a 40 year old inside a child's body groped a little girl in an episode... 🤮 Oh,yes. I have both on hold till araing, but Urasekai Picnic seems more promising for me too. I'm actually don't understand the score it has now, it can't be that bad. Seems unique. |

MoonDragon72 said: It's rated lower than that fucking pedophile isekai which is ridiculous. It's ridiculous to care about scores, just watch what you like, give a low score to what you don't like, no one cares. I came here to see opinions on this show, not people being salty about scores. |
  Nanachi's wisdom: "Watch the Monogatari Series following the Novel Order." |
| Honestly I agree, It's so underrated, this is the only discussion I've seen that is talking about it (besides those episode discussion) and I don't get it why does it has a low score? like it's not even that bad... |

| The 1st episode seemed hella boring and me not liking yuri animes didn't help. |
| I gave up on character of the week since it takes too much thinking. I'll just change my forum pfp to whoever I want every week lol. |

This isn't Attack On Titan or any other shounen battle anime. Didn't expect anything tbh. I just didn't find it enjoyable at all. Also, I don't really watch battle shounens. Only ones I watched and enjoyed were MHA(Which was my first anime) Attack On Titan(Which I consider a masterpeice) And Jujustu Kaisen(which I consider better than other shounens I've watched) My favorite genre's are isekai and SOL. I wouldn't have even checked OtherSide picnic if I expected it to be a battle shounen lol. |

| Mid 6 is a perfectly fine range for this adaptation, specially considering a lot of seasonal these days land there, making it the new 'average'. So, it's an average seasonal, more than what it currently deserves, in my opinion. I believe it should be closer to the lower 6 field, but oh well, maybe I think that way because I'm bothered by the lazy - and sometimes downright messy - job they're doing in adaptating the source. To someone that doesn't know the LN or to an avid fan of it, maybe it isn't that bad, although, considering scores, I'd beg to differ. |

To someone that doesn't know the LN or to an avid fan of it, maybe it isn't that bad, although, considering scores, I'd beg to differ. That's fine. Obviously this show won't connect with everyone. The show didn't connect with me because the adaptation team is torn between changing the source (even playing with the order of a lot of the story arcs) and keeping the dialogue exactly as is. They don't commit to the changes, but they don't embrace the original either. For example, characters' actions end up coming out as illogical to the audience, because they should be still getting used to the Otherside (Kisaragi) and its rules, which should have happened in episode 3-4, but the show shoves it forward to 5-6, without acknowledging what they put before it, both the anime original episode and the Space-Time Man one. I've written more on each episode discussion, so I won't repeat myself again. Part of me thinks the studios are engaging with it through an episodic style of storytelling, when it's actually a much more linear one. To transition it from the latter to the former, it'd require a lot more than just shuffling arcs around without making the necessary changes to the dialogue and the characters. |

Wait so you're saying that its current score isn't a bad rating for how the show is but then go on to say that the score doesn't indicate that people think it's good? Isn't that a contradiction? |
| Been on the fence about watching this since overall the reception seemed to be more negative than positive. Perhaps you've made me change my mind; I'll give the show a chance with at least one episode. Don't know anything regarding the premise, I'll be pretty much going in blind. Hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised Sad to see that you don't like mushoko tensei though; but hey to each his own I guess. A lot of people are sensitive and are going to be uncomfortable with this subject material, so it's completely understandable. Still wish people would give it a chance, but you can't force someone to watch something of course Anyway, thanks for shedding some positive light on urasakei picnic. Maybe I'll enjoy it as much as you do! |

--l-- said: No, it isn't a contradiction, because, to me, there's a difference between a 6 average that came from a majority of 6~7 ratings and a 6 average that came from a considerable amount of 5 or below ratings, although that wasn't my point. I was talking about the high percentage of 5 or below ratings (in this case, over 22%), but didn't explain it properly, so I'll do it now.

Those 22% could be presumed to think the anime is average to below average if we consider 5.5 as the 'true' average of MAL scores. I didn't say 'people think it's bad'. I was making a point that, looking at how many people have the manga on their lists, considering probably a lot of people didn't read the novel and 22% of anime watchers rated it 5 or less... my proposition of 'To someone who doesn't know the source or an avid fan of it, maybe it isn't that bad' doesn't hold much water, assuming that most of them aren't familiar with the source or the manga adaptation. |

Ok makes sense. You didn't initially mention that you were referring to a subset of the scores so it came off as a contradiction. |
| Hm, I kinda like this show, but my current score is a 6 nonetheless. Two of the things you mentioned negatively are also something that's bothering me: The inconsistent animation (especially the horrible CGI scenes - pretty jarring) & the lack of any supporting characters (except for Kozakura, who rarely appears). Sorawo and Toriko are okay, not horrible - not great, as protagonists imo. Both of them aren't boring to watch, but they're also not really interesting ^^' The paranormal creatures also seem not that threatening somehow. They look creepy and act threatening (and the soundtrack is great and has that eerie feeling to it), but Sorawo and Toriko sometimes just don't seem to take them that seriously. Or they just shoot at it and it instantly dies. I dunno... I was actually really excited for this anime ever since I've read the synopsis, but I guess my expectations were just too high (I haven't read the manga or LN). Having said that, I like and enjoy Urasekai Picnic, it's just kinda lackluster for me. |
There's no possible way you can steal my heart    I want to drown in this sweet Melancholy |
Jokes on you, I'm omnisexual. That insult doesn't work on me!  |
| The problem is that they messed the story up. The pacing, atmosphere, consistency atc. They didn't even explain some of the stuff. It makes me question whether the people making it do even care about this anime. Anyway, if you enjoyed the anime, then no reason to not check out the manga. Which has better art, pacing, atmosphere and explains most of the things the anime didn't care about. I didn't read the light novels yet but plan to. So I agree it is a pity that Otherside Picnic is quite underrated, however, this anime isn't really doing the story a service. Or are they? If they make a bad anime maybe they can make the viewers read the manga and LN? Idk. Anime isn't bad, just a horrible adaptation. Could have been even better, but for some reason they decided to mess it up. |
