    It’s so-so. Heavily depends on the season but overall the LN does a way better job. The anime really struggles with his inner thoughts imo which takes out the tension in a lot of scenes

      I have run into this with other LN adaptations. The first thing cut in the adaptation is usually the inner monologue. Some series can make up for that through clever and expressive animation. Others just come across a bit soulless and character motivations can be lacking. I have this series on my LN to-read list, but I am working my way through the Konosuba novels right now.

        Just a word of warning because it irritates me as well sometimes: Bell, for some reason, is stuck in semi-permanent naiive mode. Like he has his moment of determination, pulls out an Argonaut charged attack and 2 seconds later he’s back to almost passing out from a hug. It’s slowly getting better as the story goes on but does get on my nerves from time to time.

        On the flipside Hestia isn’t nearly as insufferable so that’s a big win.
