It’s okay if you know about mimics.
5: >>2
Mimics are those creatures that can transform into something like an insect, right? I feel like I saw them in a movie a long time ago, but I can’t remember… 😢
8: >>5
They’re monsters that disguise themselves as treasure chests.
3: I don’t really need it.
4: No, it’s fine.
6: I only knew about Lord of the Rings, but it was okay.
11: >>6
It’s the foundational work for the elf image in Japan.
7: I don’t need it.
10: If you don’t know about mimics, just google it.
16: >>10
If you google it, they’re actually ghosts that look like cicada larvae! It turns out it was directed by Guillermo del Toro, not some B-grade director I didn’t know.
12: I’m fine because levels, guilds, inventories, and status screens don’t appear.
24: >>12
The guild does appear, you know.
13: You won’t understand it if you haven’t read Urusei Yatsura.
14: It has nothing to do with Urusei Yatsura, lol.
15: If you read it and don’t understand, just look it up.
17: You’ll get hooked as you watch, so it’s not a problem.
18: I remember that Urusei Yatsura had this impression of rivals being dark and scary. I’m starting to worry if it was actually Ranma 1/2 or if it was Urusei Yatsura.
19: If you haven’t played Dragon Quest, you probably won’t understand. Just play 1-3, 8, and 11 for now.
21: As long as you have the understanding that the hero defeats the Demon King, you’ll be fine.
22: Freelyn is the type that deviates from the norm, so there are parts that rely on prior knowledge.
23: Honestly, no matter what RPG you play, you just need to use the knowledge that comes up.
25: You have to get used to using magic as if it were natural.
27: In the first place, knowledge of RPG terms like “Demon King” and “hero” is necessary.
32: >>27
They appear in works like this. So, are demons the king of the enemy race, which is like a hostile tribe? And if they’re allies, are they elves or dwarves?
28: It’s like “The Demon King did this” or “The demons did that” or “The elves did this” or “The dwarves did that.” What’s the difference between demons and elves? I don’t really understand if demons are just generally treated as bad. 😢
29: Well, you’ll understand most of it if you just watch.
33: Come to think of it, the demons that appear are kind of like mimics in a way.
34: I don’t really understand the difference between monsters and animals. For example, is a bear an animal or a monster?
35: The anime isn’t interesting. Read the manga instead.
36: In the story, monsters are creatures that prey on humans, and among the monsters, there are those who can understand human language called demons.
40: >>36
So bears, wolves, and lions are monsters, while elephants, giraffes, and zebras are animals?
Are man-eating tribes like demons?
45: >>40
Bears and lions don’t particularly prefer to eat humans. Monsters are creatures that specialize in eating humans.
38: Well, monsters are creatures that don’t exist in reality.
39: Everyone has their first encounter with a work that touches on common tropes, so don’t worry about it. I haven’t encountered Freelyn either.
42: Well, monsters are creatures that don’t exist in reality.
43: You’ll get frustrated if you don’t know about Dragon Quest.
46: Well, if you’re worried about not having knowledge of fantasy, then just don’t watch it.
49: I love mythology and fantasy, but I don’t have much knowledge of RPG-like fantasy. 😢
47: Who is this person?
48: I see, so should I watch Freelyn as a preparation and then watch Freelyn?
50: Typical “Status, Open! lol” moments that are common in fantasy aren’t there, so even if it’s your first attempt at fantasy, I think you’ll enjoy it.
51: At least it doesn’t have a game-like feel.
52: Just watch a few episodes at the beginning and if you don’t like it, you can stop.
53: With Dungeon Meshi, the enjoyment might change depending on your knowledge of RPGs. It’s like, “Are they going to eat that monster?”
54: Dungeon Meshi requires more knowledge of D&D than Dragon Quest, I guess.
55: The focus of the story is not on fantasy, so start watching without worries.
56: I’ll watch a few episodes because someone said there’s a chubby character. 😢
57: It’s not really like Dragon Quest. It’s more like a Western-style fantasy.
