Sword Oratoria: Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? On the Side has arrived on Amazon and HIDIVE, offering the complete 12-episode run with both English dub and subtitle options. This spin-off series shifts focus from Bell Cranel to Aiz Wallenstein, the 'Ais of the Sword,' and her adventures within the deadly dungeons of Orario.
Produced by J.C.Staff, the same studio behind the main Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? (DanMachi) series, Sword Oratoria delves into the exploits of the Loki Familia. The narrative explores the dangerous labyrinth from the perspective of its most formidable adventurers, highlighting their internal struggles and the brutal reality of dungeon crawling beyond the main story's focus.
Adapted from Fujino Omori's light novel, the series features a predominantly female cast and centers on swordplay, magic, and mythological themes. While the main DanMachi series follows a young adventurer's growth, Sword Oratoria offers a more mature and action-oriented look at the world, exploring the power dynamics and darker undercurrents of Orario's adventuring guilds.
With a MAL score of 7.09, the series provides a solid continuation for fans of the DanMachi universe. It offers a chance to explore the lore and character backstories of familiar faces, particularly Aiz, whose past and motivations are central to this spin-off. The complete season is available, allowing viewers to binge the entirety of Aiz's dungeon expeditions.
