I'm expecting he's only a little bit taller than Akatsuki... then it will be hilarious

Volume five and wikipedia put his height around 177cm so maybe 170~175cm?

Anyway, I wonder about Shiroe's past life.

I was wondering what is Shiroes relationship with that female leader of DTP and will she appear in future? (It was shipping on first sight for me, so pls be considerate when you shot it down.)

Kanami the spoiled princess of dtp. But calling her princess would probably earn you a kick. She is the live of dtp and where she wants to go they go. She is full of life that you can't help admire her.

So relationship? Kanami usually drag shiroe and dtp around. Like? Maybe but admire? Yes.

Every member of dtp held kanami in high regards. Its admiration which is why when she move out of the country. The grouped eventually disbanded.

Appear in the future? It depnds on the studio. Kanami has her own story. Side story of the novel.

Not really. As mentioned, she's a character of her own sidestory, and what's more, her presence is TOO overwhelming for the main plot.

Tenzen12 · 2013-11-09, 05:25

DAMN IT! Time to go read novels

That five second flashbag was enough to completely overshadow Akatsuki for me...

tsunade666 · 2013-11-09, 06:22

Well akatsuki is pretty bland or boring in character. For now, she is the loyal ninja of suitor and I doubt the anime will get to the part where she shines but even so. A much stronger contender will appear before that scene that will completely shadowed the others.

Who else thinks Shiroe should have been voiced by Hiroyuki Yoshino?

I may have trouble personally liking Terashima outside of his voice work but I think he's a really good fit for Shiroe, enough so that imagining him with Yoshino's voice doesn't feel as right.

Yeah, I have trouble liking Shiroe's seiyuu outside his work too but I gotta admit, he's perfect for Shiroe. The sample for Yoshino fits if you assume Shiroe doesn't have that hidden evil deep down.... which he does, so, if he had that seiyuu we'd probably feel that he falls kind of short when he's being villain-like

Sheba · 2013-11-25, 04:19

I have been able to overlook H.P Lovecraft's racism, and the HOTD author's blatant extreme-right wing sympathies. So what Terashima have done back then have stopped to matter and is irrelevant to his performance in LogHora.

Voceane · 2013-12-07, 00:57

You are wondering if Shiroe is smart or stupid. But IRL there are many studies that show that people with IQs over 120 have problems interacting with others. For example, a Japanese researcher measured the IQ of a group of a thousand Hikkikomori and found they had an average IQ of 117. However, only 12% of Japan's population have an IQ above 117.
So I think Shiroe is intelligent. It behaves this way because he does not care what others think of him.

Another point, Ri-Gan (Why his name become Re-Gun in the next volume?) said Shiroe is an Archmage. But an Archmage is a magician who is able to use several types of magic? Does that mean Shiroe will be able to launch powerful attack spells or summon creatures. (with his contracts, I think he already understood that it can summon other players during his quests)

High IQ and a very conformist society intent on bounding a square peg into a round hole can't be a healthy combination.

I think this is Ri-Gan viewing Shiroe throught his own bias, to him Shiroe is a mage that have been active for at least 98 years so Archmage is the only label that he can think of to apply to Shiroe.

Perhaps it could be translated as "great magician" to be easier to understand. In the sense that Shiroe has been active in a long time, and thinks more clearly than most....that's the explanation for vol. 3. Better described criteria for "magician" in Li-Gan's point of view is in vol. 7.

Tenzen12 · 2013-12-07, 18:44

I was wondering recently, but why is Shiroe nicknamed as Villain with Glasses? I mean what kind of Sheaningans he could pull out before apocalypse happaned as I don't think even PKs would be able earn such tittle.

tsunade666 · 2013-12-07, 19:46

Villain in glasses is wrong in so many ways to translate his title. His title is either black heart glasses or scheming four eyes. His pretty popular for giving choices that has only 1 choice. He will do anything, be it underhanded or blackmailing or simple trickery to get what he wants.

He is not that popular to all. Unlike D.D.D. Crusty and Black Sword's Isaac.

Shiroe is only popular to the veteran players because he rarely interacts with others.

J4n1 · 2013-12-08, 02:41

At the beginning he was almost a total nonentity outside the elite players of ET, but from what iread of Vol 5, it seems that he is getting a reputation in Akiba, and it is not a nice one.
