Shachou, Battle no Jikan Desu! - Discussion - Megane - Apr 7, 2020
Hello, I don't see a discussion thread on this anime, so I thought I'd create one.
![[Image: 106309.jpg]](https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/anime/1044/106309.jpg)
This anime is also known as, "Shachibato! President, It's Time for Battle!".
Quote:Shachou, Battle no Jikan Desu! is based on a strategy role-playing game of the same name, set in an alternative world where the player acts as the "president" to recruit and train adventurers. The adventurers are then dispatched into dungeons to fight monsters and recover loot.
You can find more about the anime, here: https://myanimelist.net/anime/40783/Shachou_Battle_no_Jikan_Desu
It's highly recommended to keep your posts in spoilers, but there is no way to enforce that since this is a discussion thread and anything goes. Don't get upset if you read something and you aren't up-to-date with the current episodes.
As for me, I shall use spoiler codes for the first three episodes. After that, I will not use the spoiler code anymore.

Boring as usual episode, nothing special. We get introduced to a "loli" (in quotes because I say that lightly) with big breasts and a tsundere attitude. Nothing cute about her and nothing interesting. She likes to go by the name "Queen Marika". I'm not sure if that's a pride thing or some sort of complex she has.
In short, the treasure hunt was for her to find friends because to find the treasure, you needed someone with knowledge of the land in order to discover the locations of the clues hidden on the map. With the help of the president and Yutoria, the three of them set off to a forest where the treasure might be located. On their way, they met Thomas, who we were introduced in the first episode I think? Anyways, Thomas is the local that helps them look for the treasure.
While looking for the treasure, I felt braindead when seeing how stupid they were. "Omg, I can't open the door it's locked, how are we going to get in" *doesn't notice the gaping hole they can crawl into*. Stuff like made me want to punch them.
I'm wondering if we'll get more out of her. I was originally going to say I hope not, but then I realized she's more useful than everyone but Akari who fights and does something rather than just sits there when they adventure and need to battle. It would be nice to have a magic user on their team. However, her magic, just like Akari's sword skills were very boring and below average.
I think what this anime is trying to do is cover up the terrible story with subtle humor. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't and when it doesn't it's a big "yikes" lmao.

Not so much of an interesting episode. However, the company gets a new member, Marika, in which we met the last episode. She gives some of her money to the company so that's good because they are closer to their goal in obtaining enough money to receive the companies inheritance from the museum.
Strange dungeons are appearing and people who enter them are encountering new Maju that have never been seen before and that is super strong. Raiba gets injured while entering one of these mysterious dungeons.
The company decided to go into one so that they can obtain loot since the loot in these dungeons might be worth some good money.
We'll see more of that in the next episode.

The company was successful in raiding the weird, mysterious new dungeons that have been appearing throughout the city. After clearing it, they obtain enough rare-earth to sell and re-gain access to the companies legacy items at the museum.
While in the museum, Minato discovers a projector and after playing it we see a hologram of his father. His father explains that obtaining the currency to unlock the legacy items was a test created by him and now the real project starts.
Minato's father is in what is called the gate. What we know about the gate is very little, but it's the big flying waterfall thing that we've seen a little bit throughout this series. It's currently locked due to how dangerous it is and only reputable people may enter.
To gain access, you must be approved by 12 leaders who look over the gate. With that being said, Guide comes up with the idea that they can visit the Goddess of the city who will grant any wish to those that summon her. However, to summon her you must donate 5x the amount of money they earned to buy back the legacy items.
With that being said, the next few episodes will probably revolve around them earning more money so they can summon the Goddess.
Overall a slow and boring episode though with the subtle hints of humor they like to sprinkle in but with this episode I didn't laugh at once.

Pretty laidback and cute episode. Episode seven wasn't that bad despite how slow it was in terms of pace. It added nothing to the story and I guess it was a filler episode to pass some time.
The beginning half with Guide was great and she's my favorite character. The second half with Akari wasn't bad either and their date was very cute! It's nice seeing both of them outside of their work clothes. It adds more personality to both of them in my opinion.
I'm guessing next episode we'll resume where we left off from episode six.

This week's episode will be delayed, however, we'll get episode 11 on June 21.

RE: Shachou, Battle no Jikan Desu! - Discussion - Megane - Jun 21, 2020
Through Raiba's assistant, Valmi, we learn that Minato was once part of the top-ranked company Imperial where he had a high ranking in the company. He was then fired due to "workplace violence". This could have gone two ways. Either Minato was framed or he really is a violent person and he is hiding his true self.
Reading the possibility that he might be framed from the MAL discussion threads is not a bad idea. Seeing how far we've come with the company it can be true that he might have been framed.
I am curious to see how the anime will end next week.

Despite this anime being a mediocre, generic adventure anime, the ending surprised me. The last episode was very good. Sadly, it's not enough to raise the final rating I have for this anime.
"Shachou, Battle no Jikan Desu!" or when translated into English, "President, it's time for battle!" is as mentioned, as generic as can be for adventure anime. Just like in every adventure anime, there is a starting area. However, as you know they never leave the area unless they are going to do a quest and then they return. I don't understand why adventure anime does that. Anyways, the story, if there was one, was pretty much non-existent until the last few episodes. Well, there was a story, but it was slow and you don't really bother following it.
It's a boring anime I will say but at other times, you might find it enjoyable. This show had a bit of comedy here and there. Sometimes the jokes were funny but sometimes they weren't. It depended on how the translator translated them. Sometimes the Japanese context would be funnier than how the English captions were written.
The characters were basic and boring. Nothing special about them. Maybe Minato, one of the main characters and the "shachou" or "company president". When doing quests he was the brain of the operation. I thought that was cool seeing how he analyzed the scenarios and then found a way to solve them. However, those in his company were useless.
Yutoria is a secretary I believe and she's Minato's childhood friend. It isn't until around episode 5~ that she uses a weapon when going on dungeon quests with the company.
Akari is the fighter in the group. She is the main fighter type and although she does most of the work she is also useless. Her abilities are boring, just slice and dice pretty much. Nothing fancy to her. Also, she's Hatsune Miku clone. Just look at her hair lol.
Makoto is the healer of the group and he is useless too. I'll keep repeating that word over and over again because it's true. Even though he's a healer, I'm not sure why he can't attack. If you've ever played MMORP's and you have a healer, you can do some damage attacks. Makoto cannot.
Then, there is Guide. She is useless too blah blah. Her only ability is looking after the company while the crew is out doing quests. If she's with them, she does exactly what her name suggests and guides them. I guess she's not completely useless.
I gave this anime a final rating of five which is "average." Yes, the anime is bad and it is boring, but I will contradict my sentence here. At times it was interesting and it helped pass time on Sundays. It's crazy to think back 11 weeks ago this anime aired. And even though it wasn't that interesting, I always like to reflect on how much time has gone by. I wouldn't recommend this anime to anyone. Sorry.
