Rio vs Gouki | Seirei Gensouki: Spirit Chronicles 

TBF he seems to have a god-tier Spirit contracted to him, unlike what even Spirit Folk would generally have (based on Dryas' words, it's either her tier or the 1 above it, which there are only like 6 in existence, but they all disappeared during/after the Divine War or w/e she called it, so it's prolly someone other than them if she doesn't know who she is, but knows the 6 1st Grade Spirits disappeared in said war), so it's kinda cheating if there's only like 6 more of same grade as the pinkie is...

@@skebaba918 he's also likely referring to the life time of training he has from his pervious life and his training at a young age street, royal academy, and the demihuman village. Someone walking up to Rio would have no idea he has a lifetime and a half of training under his belt already so they would likely refer to it as potential.

@NeoTag Atg If your previous life’s fighting skills transferred over to your new life, and then your new life gave you even more skills plus magic, how wouldn’t he be overpowered?

​@@izanagi2488 Never said he wasn't op just pointing out a lot of it's from actual training and hard work. A lot of the time when people go "there op' and use words like "cheating" it's implying they put no effort in.

@@neotagatg3238 hahaha hard work my asd

Well he did train for his entire youth. In 2 lifes.

@@zedantXiang that’s is indeed true and technically he is in his thirties

Well at least he trained for that power

I really like this MC I hope that they don't nerfed him like what happened with Naruto and sasuke

@@DevilKnightize they don’t nerf him in the novels (as far as I know), but he does build himself a larger harem

Rio=kirito CONFIRMED?!?!

they know how to save money

@@shiraori3705 Ki(ri)t(o) it was right there in front of us this whole time!

@@donq4483 Dude, that was extremely clever of you 👍

@@donq4483 oh yeah this is big brain time

Just waiting for him to go ultra instinct

I deadpans thought it was him💀 I think same voice actor too

Yep

Rio looks like his twin

No wonder I didn’t really get into this show. He’s another Kirito incarnate.

@@karakun1 He kinda slowly earns it though.

Also..... you forgot harem.

@@karakun1 Spirit Chronicles is *literally* SAO 2.0

Stance isn't unrealistic, though it isn't normally done with a katana.

true.

that lifetime in japan was about 20ish or so years

@@praxiann7615 you assume he's been getting trained from as young as he can since it's family doing the training. At least what 10 years.

He's op

when it comes to sword fighting I 100% Agree, but this character has had an OP amount of mana from day one.

You are everywhere!

did you mean to write GRAPHITE Edge?!

That’s crazy

Lame

lol

Bruh i remember you from 4anime comments. RIP

@@DeathOrderX rip 4anime

USUALLY one sided.

One sided I can agree with, but idk, these fights have too many frames where they pause and show some whish like things on the edges to feign movement, and honestly it feels like there's less animation then you'd think an anime would have.

@@teamgab7432 ur just spoiled lil boi for wanting animation in fights that barely have any importance or impact be grateful child

I would lol😂😂

he does go back to it later on, but he doesn't flex... Some of the people in that one kingdom do get a reality check though. Look forward to it.

Wow you have no taste xD Its actually so bad.

@@leviatra1227 who are you to decide if he has no taste ?

@@leviatra1227 According to a anon on the interwebs. Just let people enjoy what they enjoy.

it will this year

Your wish has been granted good sir 👍🏻

Because it's the same voice actor. I'm jot sure about the outfit.

Every Isekai (hell, don't even need to be isekai, just need a harem; see Bell from Danmachi for example) harem protagonist has the same voice...

The outfit looks cool plus kirito sucks always bs in that anime

@@skebaba918 this isn't rlly a harem and sao isn't rlly either

@@yeyeyyeye3871 it kind of is but isn’t at the same time as he only loves asuna, and in this he only loves his childhood friend. If they stick to the novel, she should be summoned to that world pretty soon.

His current outfit doesn't help his case...

In an isekai too

Also he's kinda a harem protagonist yknow

He's part Kirito, part Naofumi, and maybe a few others too.

Kirito doesnt have anything on this guy

@Rob 321 exactly

@Rob 321 The Wyvern battle was pretty true to the light novel but that's because the fight in the light novel itself was finished in like 5 moves.

@@ultimatetro11lopez14 If the anime isn't successful enough, it isn't getting a second season. Fights are way too short so far, even more so if you read the source material and compare them. Many people watching the anime have seen Kirito in SAO and the fight scenes are practically incomparable between the two animes. It's difficult, but not impossible, to rewrite a bad anime. The first season needs to get views and popularity to make it financially attractive to continue/reboot. It's important to set a good standard for the first season though.

@@-13eNnY- yet the clips are getting more views than shows like slime so I’m not worried plus u can’t compare a 12 ep show to a 25 ep show with budget and cgi so chill this fight even has better animation then the albis vs yamaza fight in slime 💀💀💀

@@ultimatetro11lopez14 I'm just saying, they're shortening the fights way too much. In the light novel, this fight should've probably had closer to 20-30 sword hits. Difficult to tell as "exchanging blows too hard to follow" isn't exactly a number. Probably more than 5 though especially when the book specified 5 attacks later on. Could've just made some sword flashes and sparks for a few seconds while they talk. They basically just kept the opening move and then jumped straight to the ending. They also removed a lot of the explanations although they could just be saving that for later which is fine. Some of the explanations get repeated a few times in the light novels which isn't necessary for the anime.

Anyone*

Wait..............nani?

A novel have the time to go into details, while an anime episode have only 23 minutes

not yet

He killed the source for the material (the wyver) himself and it was tailored by the demi-humans.

@@12tanuha21 You say that like if it explains why he's wearing the same outfit as a fuckton of Isekai protags (Kirito, Rimuru's new trenchcoat came to mind) Like are the beast people big anime fans so they recycle clothing designs
