So I'm a Spider, So What? - Kumo Desu ga, Nani ka?

[Munsu]

At the Episode 03 mark, Slime is better.

Kumo feels less like a story and more like watching someone play a game. The story is with the classmates.

Haven't watched the 3rd episode yet, but this series does in fact have a lot of grinding, particularly in the early volumes. Her story will arrive later indeed, but world wise the classmate's story serve that purpose to give us more insight into that world. But things should get more interesting sooner rather than later on her side of things, depending on the pacing... and honestly not sure what the correct answer is in regards on how to pace these portions.

1.) Shouldn't she know plenty of small cravisses and holes where a littw spider like hers can hide from people? Baka kumo

2.) Actually, why hasn't she left the cave? Was that explained? If not, it's weird she'd prefer the creept, dark, monster-filled cave. Not that I can't think of reasons not to go outside, but it should be mentioned imo.

3.) The dragon at the end gives me the feeling that it's conscious. I can't imagine her defeating a level 39 monster, so I expect her to become friends with the dragon. Just my prediction, I don't know the manga.

Many of your questions/observations should be explained eventually.

About the spider, is she actually that small? I mean, I would suppose there's a difference between a regular spider and a spider that's actually a monster. So while she's small, is she small enough to fit into small crevices? I don't know, animation wise she doesn't look all that small to me. Will go back to hunt the episodes where she meets the humans and compare how small she actually is. I think she was spotted fairly easily as it is.
