It looks better than before but Sword Oratoria is dead to me so it doesn't really matter, so much wasted potential

@Angelo Gabrini why?

Short synopsis says she now wears a magic robe, has a new staff and carrying Filvis’ shortsword

Weird that that looks like it's the back of the book summary.

Honestly wish Sword Oratoria ended with volume 12 though. Was the perfect place to end it before they added just a little extra to the story at the end to make it continue. Still planning on reading the new volumes, but I never really liked SO as much as all the other Danmachi series.

I agree with Angelo though, if the series' main focus was actually on Ais it would have been a great series.

@Kisaki Tosane

That's not what I meant but yeah

She looks more mature now which is nice. It's a nice change of pace.

@Angelo Gabrini I forgot that you hated the novels...

What potential did you mean was wasted then?

I think SO12 gave that epic conclusion feel which makes it very weird now that it is continuing.

However, I don't mind. More Danmachi is great and I am definitely interested to see where SO is going now.

Also Lefiya with short hair, looks great!
