Definitely looking forward to this. Will be one of my top-priority series for that season.

Wait what? This pv features content from up to volume 11! Even if they got 26 episodes approved this seems like quite a tall order ( s1 cover 3 volumes on 13 episodes). Don't get me wrong getting up to volume 10 is already more than I could ask for so I'm very hyped. Lets hope for the best

Damn. This is either going to have some sort of skip, or 25 episodes, or horrible pacing. Hoping for that middle possibility.
That said, S1 could have had a bit faster pacing and not have suffered too much.

Volume 4 could be done in 2-3 episodes but there's no way they're covering at least 6 volumes of content in another 9-10. S1 already cut out a lot to barely maintain the plot. (RIP Albedo's sister) Please, please, be 2 cours.

Personally I think they could skip volume 4 almost entirely. It is the most inconsequential to the overall story, and well, what comes next is just plain more interesting. White having different pov per volume is sort of the novel's shtick, as far as anime is concerned they could just skip straight to the main battle of that volume, give it ten minutes and it would be a good introduction to the series overall plot and narrative

As far as i can tell it only goes volume 7 in content. What you maybe confusing is the platium dragon lord with the frost dragon

Would agree with rottencorrupt -There were no dwarves, so that would point to the Platinum Dragon Lord.

Am hoping we do see a good chunk Sebas's adventure adapted...

All aboard the hype train WOO WOO!! Seeing all the different people and creatures makes me hyped, cause that means the new season will expand the known world. S1 was pretty small scale, focusing only on a single town, I'm hoping S2 will show some more amazing places!!
