Lord El Melloi II Case Files Mini-Review: Whydunit

It’s a bit tough to discuss this series as a whole for a number of things

  1. I never read the novels.
  2. It’s an adaptation of said novel series but it’s adapting the middle segment of it
  3. The magic system replaces the usual elements of a traditional mystery

And for that reason, I’m going to keep it short.

Lord El Melloi II Case Files Episodes 11-12: Going once, going twice

Since I’m already a week late.

Been a bit since I was forced to do this eh? Real life got in the way hard and I’ll leave the excuses to be discussed in the weekly music post. Let’s get through this as things get exciting as the mystery comes to a close.

Lord El Melloi II Case Files Episodes 10: But Why? Why would he do any of that?

Adashino is looking more suspicious by the episodes, even if Olga survived that encounter.

Things are stacking up to be busier but I should still be alright now that Nerofest is finally over.

Lord El Melloi II Case Files Episodes 9: Unexpected Developments

Not only do we get trains but we also now get Dead Apostles in the form of a forest that pops up wherever it wants.

We got even more fights but sadly taking place outside of the train, boo. Black Keys are always fun to watch though and boy does the thirsty pink girl get on my nerves.

Lord El Melloi II Case Files Episodes 8: Blitzing on a train

I should really try and see if this is what actually happens in the novels because for an adaptation, we’re still more than half original content for this series.

Because I feel like I would have heard something about these events from some errant TypeMoon conversation but guess not. TM does tend to throw in a lot of characters from other works in these alternate time-lines, take Caules and Kairi for example, but were the Animuspheres this prominent before Grand Order? I need to dig up some info.

Lord El Melloi II Case Files Episodes 7: And they’re off

Let’s hope my fetish for fighting on a moving train isn’t the only thing that will make this exciting.

I’m not sure if the Animuspheres played a big part in this in the novels or not but I wouldn’t doubt it.

Lord El Melloi II Case Files Episodes 1-6: Getting to Rail Zeppelin

Took me long enough to write this up. Got busy with the start of August and actually waiting for Jojo to end that I nearly forgot about this. Wasn’t until my brother urged to watch this together that I finally got off my ass to get down with this.

But hey, as it turns out, it worked out after all slacking around because we didn’t even get to investigating the Rail Zeppelin yet. This also turned out to be less of a review and more just a quick overview.
