The final scene for this episode was weird too, felt like there was something more but it just sort of ends there, seems a few episodes have done this to me already. In the Adventure, the players can face down this formidable foe. The Jabberwock comes straight from Alice In Wonderland and is presented as a fearsome dragon in the Feywild. The issue is Diana, as she's pretty much the best possible student, how do you bring her back down to a level as everyone else? It kind of feels like the show wants to be both about the crazy adventures of a group of rowdy students (So the natural super competent and intelligent character makes sense) and also have some good character growth but sort of failing on both fronts. 1 Jabberwock: Beware The Jabberwock, Players - The Jaws That Bite, The Claws That Catch. It is nice that Akko is starting to realise she needs to pull her act together, if this is the beginning of her growth that'll be fantastic. As a character there's nothing standout about him, even his interaction with Diana and his negative view on magic fell flat.

The introduction of Andrew and his father (One or possibly both as the villains?) was pretty mundane but I'll let that slide. Once every few episodes might have been fine but right now it's rather boring. This was a strange episode for me, it opens with telling us how awesome Diana is and how utterly hopeless Akko is and I'm already starting to tire of this constant reminder. There's no sense of danger and so when the The camera takes on a number of flat angles and there's never any sort of real tension despite the action going on. Another example would be the chase/fight sequence in the forest which was just atrocious. Instead the sequence comes off as Akko doing the limbo. A better storyboard would have had Akko being pushed to the ground by a literal visual representation of Diana's words. Two of the earliest of these were The Great Buddha Arrival from 19s The King Kong That Appeared in Edo, both of which are now presumed to be lost films. The film influenced many giant-monster films in its wake, including many produced in Japan. The above screenshot is an example of bad storyboarding in that Akko is obviously supposed to be weighed down/pushed back by Diana's criticisms and instead of some visual motif weighing Akko down, it just has Akko bending her body back for no visual reason. One of the first films involving giant monsters was the 1933 classic King Kong, as developments in cinema and animation enabled the creation of realistic giant creatures. Yes it's obviously a problem but the bigger issue is how lackluster the storyboarding was. I don't so much mind the character models being off-model for the entire episode. I know it's the first outsourced episode to Liden but damn. 1 The term can also refer to the giant monsters themselves, which are usually depicted attacking major cities. A subgenre of science fiction, it was created by Eiji Tsuburaya and Ishir Honda. The first is that the storyboarding and art is pretty much garbage.
