Is Bell going to fight Leon?
I doubt there is a joint expedition in SO15 because DM20 is about the Orariopiad. I think it’s referring to the timeline which the events of every SO volume from now on will happen at the same time as the events of the latest DM volume released.
The Lion in the chapter title refers to the animal, it’s not a name. So it’s referring to Leon.
Ais will appear in DM20 Ch2 so I’m guessing the intersection will be in early chapters of DM20 and SO15. Looks like Loki Familia or at least their strongest members won’t be participating in Orariopiad since they will be in the dungeon.
“Heroes are ‘shit’”
“Heroes are ‘conquerers’”
“Heroes are gone”
Are these lines from the volume? Could these be what Leon think of heroes?

Is Bell going to fight Leon?
There is no such rule. You’re confusing it with the one year conversion rule.
The dynamic between Ryu, Asfi and Aisha was good especially during the fight against Filvis because they were pretty much equals at the time. But now that Ryu is Lv6 and an official member of one of the top familias in Orario, it now looks more like Ryu is the one leading the group with Asfi and Aisha supporting her. Asfi and Aisha need to rank up to Lv5 so that even if Ryu is still much stronger they could look like equals when they are all first tier adventurers.
Bookwalker SS are often longer than other SS. Honestly an SS about Ryu, Asfi and Aisha interests me the least compared to the others.
Vol 20 SS contents have been revealed.
Animate: Nina @ Hestia Familia
Bookwalker: Ryu, Asfi and Aisha
Melonbooks: Syr and Idunn
Gamers: Leon and Ottar
We probably will see Nina interact with Hestia Familia in actual volume though. I notice that it says Nina “at” Hestia Familia instead of “and”, which indicates Nina does join Hestia Familia or at least going there for an internship.
Ryu, Asfi and Aisha were equals when they were all Lv4 but now Ryu is Lv6 so I wonder how their relationship is now.
Syr/Freya probably never met after coming to the Lower World so looking forward to see them meeting again for the first time.
Finally the interaction between the two Lv7s that everyone wanted to see.
I thought the consequences of the Guild hoarding the Orichalcum would be the dungeon elevator malfunctioning after it starts operating. Didn’t expect it would be this.
You forgot the School District has Leon who is most likely Lv7. If Leon participates then Bell can too. The Orariopiad is probably the promised adventure that Bell and Leon will be in.
Full synopsis of DM20 is out: https://www.sbcr.jp/product/4815628697/
So seems like the Orariopiad is not really an event they hold every time School District is back in Orario. I’m guessing Bell will join the student’s side and his identity will be exposed at the end but his reputation in front of the students will be restored.
The SS bundled with the special edition is titled “Days of the new Fertility”.
BD listing confirmed that S5 will be 15 episodes. BD is divided into 2 volumes with the first containing 9 episodes and the other has 6 episodes. Looks like Vol 16-17 will be 9 episodes and Vol 18 will be 6 episodes. Based on the BD’s release date S5 episodes will air for consecutive weekly without break (not counting New Year holiday break) which ends in January. BD will also have SS bundled.
I expected DM20 in December based on when those chapter titles were leaked, but didn’t expect SO15 right after. Looks like Episode Haruhime might be after these volumes since Omori already leaked some info about it as I mentioned in another thread.
DM20
ダンまち本編、第20弾!
激震、オラリオVS学区対抗【都市競技祭典】――オラリオピアード開催だあああっ
SO15
いざ、『遠征』再開――未踏の60階層へ。
『本編』と『外伝』が交わる時、ついに来たる!
DM20 focuses on a Sports Festival called Orariopiad which is Orario vs School District while SO15 is about going to the 60th floor. It says in SO15 synopsis that main story and SO will finally intersect.
According to Omori’s tweet DM20 and SO15 take place around the same time but I don’t see how given the focus of each volume.

So there was around 10 days between the Elegia chapter and the one before it in Vol 15, and Episode Haruhime will take place during this. It will take place in the Far East and Haruhime’s fan type weapon was made there.
Haruhime’s new weapon was revealed in Vol 18 limited edition data sheet but there was no info about the weapon at all in the volume. Now we know it was to prevent spoilers on Episode Haruhime. Omori wanted to finish writing the volume before S5 anime aired so I’m guessing we will see Haruhime’s fan weapon in the anime.
Since Omori already leaked some info about this volume it will probably be the next one to be released after DM20 and SO15.
Maybe a monster’s stats are presented differently from people with falna. Monsters don’t rank up so their stat points don’t reset to 0, so a Lv2 minotaur has dexterity of a Lv1 with 200 dexterity points and agility of a Lv1 with 950 agility points. Perhaps a higher level monster would have been shown to have stats like above 5000 points in strength.
Arifureta S3 which is also airing this fall will be 16 episodes, and seems like it will air episodes weekly without a break so maybe Danmachi S5 will too. It’s a shame Danmachi S5 has less episodes than we hoped for but at least we will see the episodes covering the war game earlier than previously expected.
Even though they were kind enough to give us 22 episodes to cover Vol 12-14, we only get 15 episodes to cover Vol 16-18 which has more content. Maybe S4 specially got 2 cours because it aired during the 10th anniversary and Ryu who is a very popular character was the main focus of the season. In addition it was the biggest dungeon arc in the series and the main setting of the series is the dungeon.
According to Sugoi Lite, S5 will be 15 episodes and there won’t be a second cour. I also found info from someone who watched the advance screening of Ep1-2. Ep2 ends at around halfway through Vol 16 when Syr tells Bell that they should escape from the people following them. Based on the pacing Vol 16 will be covered in 3-4 episodes, so that means the 15 episodes will cover the entire arc of Vol 16-18.
Based on the exact words in the chapter’s title, it looks like Bell won’t spend time with Leon and Ais at the same time.
Omori tweeted another chapter title.
https://x.com/fujinoomori/status/1834170085310595184
Ch2 title is “獅子のち剣姫 (Lion and then Sword Princess)”. I think the chapter focuses on Leon and Ais.
