Which LN has the best ad?

My pick would be Re:Zero. The first season is so well done that I had to pick up the LN to see how it continues.

    My only exposure to TEIS was the anime up to the episode where he does the I AM ATOMIC thing. I couldn’t handle the cringe anymore after that. The anime felt not like a parody like Konosuba but like something that took itself seriously. Is the manga different in that regard?

      Yeah, I think so. The manga is a much more comedic version of the story. It has its moments where Cid goes full chuuni, but it is much sillier overall. Just a couple examples I quickly pulled from the manga (all of which take place before the “I am atomic” scene) in the anime (chapter 6 in the manga):

        I think the anime ruined it for me in a reverse way of how the Konosuba anime changed my experience. I see those panels and in my mind it invokes the tone of the anime.
