If they can top Database, I'll watch the second season of Battle Vixens.

Personally, as someone who's grown up around online RPG's it was very well researched, near perfect in that aspect. I would say the creator has experience playing as it was very solidly written, very on the ball to what actually happens/rules, etc so I found it a pleasure to watch. It engrossed me, sorta like how Spice & Wolf did actually.. found it charming.

I feel that the series had to sacrifice a lot of characterisation and emotion to do that though. I found myself unable to get attached to any of the characters and I also felt that all of the "threats" that the characters came across in season one were dealt with far too easily, such as all the build up for the Goblin King event and then...nothing.

Hmmm..I can see where you're coming from there actually. Some of it maybe down to the show airing on (what I think is) Kids TV or something? But yeah, from what I've read online, lots of details from the LN's were left out here and there. Think they maybe worth a read.

I do agree with not being able to get attached to characters, I did like Crusty, Shiroe & Nyanta but couldn't go past liking to loving. It maybe down to their being a big roster of characters, so many introductions to go through, etc etc. Hopefully the second season can cover some character ground, which they should be able to as I think there's only two more LN out to cover, so there needs to be some fillers in there.

It's not kids TV. It is (or was) Saturday evening prime time entertainment on a publicly-funded TV channel, though. Which in turn did mean that certain things from the original novels had to be left out.
 
kuuderes_shadow - Ah, right .. I was sorta right, sorta wrong then lol
