Let’s face it, our spidergal is the main reason even average episodes didn’t flop. She’s the life of the party and she knows it. From defeating earth dragons to facing her formidable Mother, Kumoko is tough as nails. No wonder she is hailed in history as the Nightmare of the Labyrinth. Getting to see her real face was shocking, but we do think she still looks cute for a spider monster.

Ariel, the Demon Lord sounds much more reasonable than the elves! Or do the elves know something even the Demon Lord does not know? In the last episode, we get the final piece of the puzzle about the “villains” of So I’m a Spider, So What? Sure, they did kill many, followed dubious means to reach their goals, and this is what positions them on the dark side. But, the Demon Lord knows that the time of this universe is limited, same as Kumoko, and together they are fighting to protect the future. This was an interesting turn and we wish we could have seen more of the behind-the-scenes meetings of the Demon Lord supporters. Of course, there are still many questions unanswered related to the System. We still don’t know all the details related to that, who is the omniscient administrator, and how the new status quo came to be. So, there might be more to Potimas’ plan!

Many anime-only fans didn’t enjoy the human-centered episodes that much, until later in the series. However, their episodes are equally important in understanding the story. This would not have been the same anime without all the different plotlines coming together by the end. Schlain, the Hero, is a bit generic, the likable guy who protects his friends and his brother’s honor, but thankfully there are Filimos, Potimas’ daughter, and Feirune, the dragon, who are both fun to watch and have their own secrets.
