The Hero is Afraid of Kumoko | Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka? 

What if I attack last?

With whom did she copulate?( I still need to watch many episodes.)

@@mayurgowda8930 they're not really her babies per say... more like of a clone of some sort.

It's an egg laying skill she got from killing her mother. Her mother didn't need a partner to reproduce, and because Kumiko got her skills from killing and eating her. Now Kumiko doesn't need someone either. She also got several other skills from Mother. In the anime these aren't mentioned, just written in the stats. So you wouldn't notice unless you paused the episode and read the stats at the right time.

Or if you burn their house and take their dragon egg

Hey.. dont blame the spider..if i was in same shoes, i would do the same.. What every other normal creature would do.. go outside.. take a swim in sea.. go fishing.. heck perhaps build a house.. or.. better yeat study science.. I be heck of a spider ^^

Thats one demented freak

@@gandalfx77 Then they end up as a floating head on water after grand-ma visit :') ...

and they even become a cancer curing divine being that protects noble vampires from racisme

you show me a young "hero" who thinks the docile spider that heals people is the sick freak and i'll show you a genocide player in Undertale.

I mean, if you were building a house and someone burnt it for no reason then of course you'll get mad, it only makes sense because Kumoko spent alot of time weaving those webs only to be burnt down by adventurers.

@@drunklord9471 I don’t think he meant it like she was doing a bad thing, he meant that it’s kinda strange that you think about how one little spider changed how everyone views getting rid of a simple spider web ever since, it’s very impressive, but it is Kumoko after all so

@@Mo-. That "little" spider was as big as German Shepherd though XD

@@buggart It was meant to be a figurative statement, although she still was a fairly small compared to certain branches of her species in that world, obviously though she’s huge compared to any of her real world counterparts

@@drunklord9471 the reason would probably be that those spiders were a danger for humans. She also killed (and ate) lots of humans as well. So they were kinda justified to kill the monsters (and nests) from their point of view.

Wrong , all because D slacking off in another world 😂🤦

More like a drone strike.🤷

Yes but actually no.

Wait what ? I need details

@@MainGoldDragon okay, so these are spoilers if you haven't gotten to that part yet so stop reading when you see this to avoid spoilers, okay, so basically kumoko and classmates died because administrator D was in the classroom posing as a fellow classmate, the reason they died due to her being there is because the previous demon lord and hero used spatial magic to attempt to kill D while she was there, which of course didn't work because D is a god and was only posing as a student, resulting in the deaths of everything in the classroom. Side note: i am unsure if it was actually spatial magic or some other kind, it was just what came to mind.

In her human form she’s the second most dangerous creature on the planet. (Depending on how you look at it, you could also make a strong argument for third.)

@@snuckytoes8427 she is stronger than potimas without the potimas barrier but weaker than ariel and admin gulie

Spoiler... 《edit misspelled name》 Kumoko is not wakaba, she is that spider at beggining in classroom. And admin D is the actual watanabe. The sudden explosion was attack on D. They failed so D reincarneted her classroom and gave Kumoko part of her soul to take her place. As Shiro (human form/arachne god) she is on par with dragon administrator (forgot his name cause japanese).

@@thechaosgodofjashin4277 Shiro is out of the system so she is stronger than Ariel

@@riccardorosso2325 depends shiro said herself if ariel use her incredible speed she wouldnt even have time to react and will lose

Well.....Can't argue with that. Basic difference I felt was because the hero party believed was they were shown. But Kumoko had to survive. And by survive I mean 0.5 hp health drop multiple time survive.

@@thechanandler5091 Tbf to Shun, Kumoko's faction helped his brother brainwash his sister to kill their father and incriminate him. They also killed his brother and whenever he encounters one of them, they act like he's dumb for not realizing things, but don't even bother explaining anything and act like enemies. It's hard to see Kumoko and the others as anything but enemies from Shun's perspective, because they usually act as such

And aftee reading the web novel i get angry at how busted this "hero" plot armor and revival skills truly are. Managing to (indirectly) kill Kyouya with full deadly sin skill that made him the strongest being inside the system (stronger than Ariel) and destroy the _goddess_ main body of Kumoko/White/Shirou by the sheer power of impossible luck is total bs.

@@imtoolazyforaprofilepic4961 that's why Kumoko/White trying hard to delete the hero title from existence. Also read the LN, WB is similar, but not the same story

@@makotomachiyuki wait the webnovel has a different story? Edit: I asked cuz I'm reading it for free and if the webnovel has a different story I'll just buy the light novels

Lmao

spider children: We were born here, mother came to live here, we shall protect it to protect her

their* mother's*

U forgot to add ppl fearing a slime so much they don't even mention his name( except those whom know him.

They always feared spiders though, just look at Mother and her offspring.

@@digiing1992 very true also within a year kumikos offspring is now over running the cave

@@digiing1992 Ehh not really. Before they were bad, but not to the extent like the Vestiges.

Spiders have never been that weak look at lord of the rings Ungoliant (shelobs mom) almost killed the greater scope villian Morgoth back when saroun was still just an evil intern

To be fair, wasn't it kumoko that makes that hole in the labyrinth

To be precise its about 2 years no days

This party has everything going on for them. They had a better life, many of them had more abilities available from birth and even when facing danger, they aren't really at risk because Kumoko will always make sure that they won't die. Hell, Fei managed to gain a human form much, much easier than Kumoko. It is no wonder that it is very hard to root for them when they stand in Kumoko's and Ariel's way.

@@lisboah in fact, chapter 13 of the LN shows that Kumoko keeps complaining about how easy of a life they have.

@@lisboah yeah that's why I think kumoko trained Sophia like hell, even when she was a baby

Shiro already know who the new Hero is after killing Julius.

@@abyssaldemon1188 the question is why she protective of him at all. Someone told me she's protective of him even though he doesn't know her that well but the question is why? What's so special about shun? 🤔

Spoiler alert

@@thewolfofwallstreet627 she's protecting the souls of all the alive reincarnators because of their teacher, Shiro don't want Oka to be sad.

@@thewolfofwallstreet627 the other reason why she's not killing Shun was because of the Goddess Sariel, If Shiro kill Shun, the Goddess will make another reincarnator as the new Hero.

Yes but actually no.

Laugh in light novel

@@kat-hunter is there one? Can you link it?

@@destroyerblackdragon its-its wild..

Theres both light novel and web novel. I like the web novel Shiraori so much, just the plain brutality of her otherworldness (not because of reincarnation or world travel btw, not what i meant. Shes like an op alien basically).

The reincarnates were being secretive about their reincarnations. Also I believe Kumoko reincarnated months before everybody else, so it might have been enough to make it the prior year that she first became active. Altho it would have been over a year after her hatching that she became notorious, so guess that doesn't work so much...

@@DoomsdayR3sistance i read both ln and wn... all of them reincarnates at the same time

@@DoomsdayR3sistance she just literal hatch at the same time she was born because theyll all reincarnates when its spider hatching time ... for fei who is a dragon, she hatch later a year or so cuz its not still dragons hatching time

@@ichiruki.forever Kumoko hatching is essentially the time she remembers reincarnating at. So yea, she was "born" before the rest, which is essentially what reincarnation refers to here. And yes, obviously Fei hatched later, like 7 years later, however that didn't happen in the WN because there was no Feirune. Shinohara Mirei was in the WN, but she reincarnated as human originally.

She did not show up as alive in the student list. She is the only one who did not so it was reasonable to figure such. This is also the period the originator of Tarraects became the demon lord so it is not that unrealistic to call a coincidence. Combine that all the Reincarnators were weak babies at this time and would not become noteworthy till years later.

The light novel doesnt make a huge point of it either early on. You kind of realize it over time. The clues are all there, but they dont come right out and say "Btw, spider girls set 15 years in the past from the human characters, just fyi" Because making that connection and realizing the nightmare of the labyrinth is our mc once she gets some evolutions into her is a pretty shocking moment.

yea and it's just easier to imagine the correct timelines when you think that they were born around the same time but our spider girl was trown into hell since the day 1 she was born while the others had a whole childhood nd early teenager to pass

@@MarceloOliveiraS Kumoko was born roughly 6 months before anyone else actually

It believe somewhere in the anime it is actually written "15 years ago" when the scene changes back to Kumoko

@@wolfekupo5651 that hardly matters when they still have to live to maturity. Kumoko was getting attacked as soon as she was born basically, while the rest of the humans-born characters obviously lived normal childhoods.

Yeah like, Sophia should be A huge Indication. Sophia = Reincarnation. Sophia = Baby. Shun = Reincarnation. Shun = Teenager

I know it's there, but who is who between them are difficult sometimes to tell apart

you even have the origin of the previous hero's white scarf, and if you want a much more earlier hint: the earth wyrm egg that kumoku had and feirune being an earth wyrm receiving kin eater.

That is the main failure of the anime: it concentrated on Kumoko to the expense of the humans. It cut out basically everything that made the humans interesting. In the novel, Shun has an inner monlogue just like Kumoko, which makes him infinitely more likeable as a character than his anime counterpart. Now, to be fair, the cuts were kinda necessary for adaptation purposes, but it is still unfortunate, since it degrades the quality of the anime itself. I was bored to tears during Shun’s parts of the anime because everyone was so generic with next to no characterization and way fewer hints and lore drops to help tie the world together.

@@samiamrg7 I heard kumoko turned into a goddess…nice

@@samiamrg7 Nah, WN Shun is still an unlikable cardboard cutout wannabe of a hero

@@adon732alex Still more interesting than the anime version. Especially given the way his segments (at least early on) give some context into how abnormal Kumoko’s situation really is. Like when he mentions how leveling up Appraisal is really hard and gives you headaches, meanwhile Kumoko is just like “I’m gonna appraise everything I see, non-stop to level this skill up!” She doesn’t even mention headaches or adverse effects, instead concentration on the potential payoff in terms of helping her survive. This context come back up when we see how (spoiler) Vampy gets trained from childhood and Ronandt learns about how brutal the training required to get crazy strong is.

@@adon732alex Yes but the point is that you're making fun of his cardboard cutoutness as he manages to stumble blindly into catastrophe after catastrophe.

I think Shun has a slight problem of clinging to his perception of everyone from their past lives. It makes things awkward when they shouldn't be XD

@@jonquilgemstone They are all kinda clinging to their past lives. Literally everyone joked at Karnatia for reincarnating as a woman xD

@@gilgameshthekingofweebs5924 Agreed. That's probably part of why Kumoko is the title character. She basically rolled with everything and adapted, utilizing her past without getting stuck to it.

@@jonquilgemstone go with flow that her

@@jonquilgemstone she was clinging with her past life too:)

and its basically just a lore dump for kumoko

The guide freaks out when Shun talks to them, but I was like "hey, you said they don't attack unless they're attacked. You never said they couldn't be talked to."

That guide has a trauma though

@@digiing1992 True.

@@sapphirII yeah he talk and he even try to touch it.. of course the guide freak out

@@digiing1992😊

Nah, she thought she was dead this whole time. It isn't rlly a obvious connection because of all the possibilities and mainly due to the reason kumo is no longer on her list of roster (obviously since she turn god) but how was she to know tht

@@ArthurPrince03 Since this comment, I actually went and read the light novel. Kumoko does not disappear from the roster until she "dies" at the hands of Demon Lord Ariel, which is about a year and a half after everyone was reborn. That was plenty of time for Ms.Oka to get her telepathy skill and warn Potimas. (The only reason Potimas was in the area was because Ms.Oka told him Kumoko and Sophia were going to die in Sariella.) While it's not explicit in the novels, Ms.Oka DEFINITELY would have been able to put that timeline together. Kumoko was born in the labyrinth, and dies in Sariella. So did the "nightmare". In fact, the nightmare disappears after that since Kumoko ascended and became a drider, and then a goddess.

@@Stiggandr1 I think kumoko disappeared from the skill when she ate a certain thing

@@basti3016 If I recall correctly, the LN is pretty clear. spoiler alert* She disappeared when her original body died, and she slipped her soul into one of her eggs during the Battle of Seriella. This happened a few years before she got the munchies at an interesting moment.

Yes

I pretend that that whole thing never happened.

I don’t get it

@@mysticdragonwolf89 you are too innocent to understand this

Surprise we aren’t shitting on shun again

@@saosaqii5807 I don't understand why people hate him. In any other anime he would've been the generic protagonist. He's boring, but people hate him for nothing.

@@gilgameshthekingofweebs5924 I think I hate him because he always trying to fight people he can't win with no plans and trump card

Technically no. She shapeshifted into a human like creature. She is still, in her first true form, the dragon. She obtained that skill in Ep17 or 16 i think?

sorry. this was just me still rustingly finding *where* exactly is Kumoko's Human form right now. it should not be as long as Rimuru's eventual humanoid form?....

@@FARBerserker I got that wrong from that other Week so just dismiss this as an outdated guess.

welll....errr....I rather not ruin the surprise. Even if that Arc will probably be in the next season...

I do not mind any spoilers. [shrugged] (just have to 'space' one's words out in here....for those others' sake here). but of course, I halted it anyways. I shall try finding more about this Anime's lore on my own from here on out during a free time....

They're technically on the same time they were all born at the same time remind me how old is Spider-Girl actually? How long has it been since she hatched?

@@Slacker28 its confusing but okay

@@nataliaquiles800 thats the thing bro first it's confusing reincarnators and kumokos time line didn't match but later it all connects at one point like spider web 🕸️ and it make sense of whole plot

@@Slacker28 no kumoko is born ten years earlier than other reincarnators

@@rishabhkanade7418 no she was born at roughly the same time as the others it's just she began her adventure when she was freshly hatched everyone else were babies by the time she was killing dragons

Now I want to see Kumoko do a Symphogear transformation scene :)

Well, she can punch gods to death

I mean who wouldn't, she's far more scary than Takamachi Nanoha in term of befriending you.

Yeah... but wait till the appearance of Miku

I mean, this Hibiki eats people and doesn't get washy about fighting the way OG Hibiki did.

But sadly kumoko/shiro cant get skill by eating them:(

But her magic is insanely cool

I think Rimuru already OP monster since beginning, he can copy monster ability he eats plus he has great sage skill as his assistant. Meanwhile Kumoko grinding hard and almost dead in the labyrinth.

Its only a matter time until she reaches C E L E S T I A L

True. His Brorher, the Previous Hero, is an Actual Hero, not his little simp shit brother

pretty sure manga also failed to mention it until it became relevant right after her losing fight with demon lord. I expect anime to mention them next episode.

@다정 pretty much yeah

Ariel too, i wanted to see her giving birth

@@imtoolazyforaprofilepic4961 😐

"Now draw her giving birth"

Saved? She was going to eat it lol.

@@shadowshedinja6124 she was saving it to eat it of course haha

she tried breaking it multiple times untill some adventurers found her and chased her off

Oh so the anime follows the light novel and not the web? Do you know where I can read the light novel?

They see her eyes differently, than us. She looks like a normal white spider to them, but we see her with different eyes so we can guess when its her or no, and also bc this is an aime and no one would like it if we always saw her with the scary eyes. But tbh I think, that they are talking about a different spider there, because her skin never looked like that.

@@brincqt it did at one point

@@brincqt she evolved

Shun is the hero at this point

Most likely, but those initial batch of spiders laidd eggs of their own so it's possible it's one of those.

I was confused about that to

yes, his name in previous life is Ooshima Kanata

If I got a friend that got genderbend in his reincarnation the first thing I will ask: How's the female orgasm feels like

I'm not sure but I think that it wasn't explained in anywhere

hah just happened across this video 5 months later with no replies XD

@@tazule6874 probably in 2023

Hazarding a guess your referencing genshin? Also if you get a little farther in he/she does find out that the other is the enemie

@@darkdruidsvale yep

more like 15 or so, yeah... She was fighting dragons while her classmates were literally in diapers

Episode 1 he's the little boy

I don't hate Shun, but I just can't care about anyone but Kumoko.

he isnt self proclaimed though... the world literally gave him the hero title

I think it's episode 2, 11:15. But his account is wrong though. He was literally burning kumoko's web house and actively trying to catch her in order to burn her. But I might be wrong though. It could also be that the encounter was never shown and Kumoko met a different group of people in ep 2.

@@AAGREEDYFISH ok ty!

@AAGREEDYFISH & @ItznGamer -- No, the anime didn't show Basgath's first encounter.

@@itzngamer8814 the time he saw her was when she first left the middle area due to her fear effect monsters started to retreat causing problems in the ecosystem a group of soldiers were sent to investigate he was their guide the fear he felt just laying eyes on the nightmare was so strong he never forgot it and she didn't even do anything but stare

@@AAGREEDYFISH is right but the point of view is different from her point of view (the one shown in episode 2) the human's were way stronger than her so she ran (played up for comedic effect). But from his point of view her mere presence was enough to scar the human's that was there. Also shown through her different character design for each perspective

He's not the hero. He's a hero. It's like a job/title, (being the only that can kill the demon lord Ariel) if he dies they're just be a new one to take his place and use up the planet's resources.

hello can u tell me where should i begin to read after s1? is it a manga or a ln?

@@mohammadrezamirzadeh4589 have u found the answer? I would like to know too

@@Becbecbae i read the manga . unfortunatelly it only had like 10 more chapters after s1 . i recommend checking the light novel . although I don't like to read light novels bc they don't have the pics . still if you really want to go for it should be light novel

They are almost in the same page right now

Unless I miss my guess, Episode 22 will be where the anime officially passes the anime.

@@Buretsu you mean passes the manga?

There's a source material where the manga got it from.

i mean the manga so far focuses mainly on her time as Kumoko like we have seen Shiraori but most of the jumping back and forth in time is cut out they will most likely make it so it has a more cronological order like its more linear the Anime and LN(I think) kinda jump back and forth all the time while the mange starts at one point and progresses from there thou there was a single scene of jumping to the future

17 or 18

@@jayesh375 17

spider past human future not complicated

No it's not. you should've read the light novel. Manga is worse than anime

Well the manga is just all kumuko

@@Pinky_Piie its not all Kumuko its just they are telling the story in a more linear way rather then jumping back and forth between points in time

So you won't understand the story, so what ?

bruh the story is not about the real hero it's about the spider lol

Im only here for the spider. It is the real hero
