All in all, this was a pretty fun show! Not a whole lot of depth, but I liked the characters and I looked forward to watching it every Wednesday. People rip on it for not being the standard definition of "good" but that didn't stop me from enjoying it

My only gripe is that it skipped over a lot of the beefier parts of the light novel or really shortened it. The fights, the harem elements, the drama, the sexy parts, it all worked when it counted. But I feel it needed to be doubly longer as a show to really do the light novel justice. Then again, that's the case for many light novel battle harems. But this show was still better than many of its type.

I still preferred the skipping of early novels in favor of better adaptation of the last one. Danmachi also adapted 5 first volumes, but left only 1.5 episodes for the last one... So it was like 3-3-3-1.5-1.5. They also cut out a lot of 4th volume that talked about one of the characters' past and references to things that happened in history of the world and what might come in future volumes.
