    I just finished watching the latest episode. Episode 6.
    If you havent dont read past this message.

    At some point in the episode, Hero Julius fought a remnant vestige, no idea if its a remnant of the nightmare(Kumoko's kids) or something way different, like a pawn of Ariel.

    So this is the question, as it is where now, is the human side of the story a bit later than Kumoko's POV or Kumoko's POV and the human POVs are in the same time frame?
    I havent really read the novel and i definitely doesnt remember that Julius was in the current manga chapter. So spoil me.
    Is the remnant that fought Julius are the ones Kumoko's kids or not.

    IIRC they're all got reincarnated and born at around the same time(+-1 year), so when Kumoko hatched from her egg, the other reincarnates is also born. So, knowing that Kumoko is not even 1-year-old, and her other friends (?) are already attending school mean the human side is later than Kumoko POV

    Ok got it. So Kumoko's POV is mostly the present and humans pov are the future, something like that?

    Im really bad at switching povs...

    Yes Kumoko's POV is Main Timeline and Shun's POV at present is the future of Main Timeline.

    PS I use Shun's POV instead of Human as they might have other Human POV's that are not Shun's that are at different intervals of the timeline. Aka Young Julius POV or Young Oka POV and there are at least a couple of characters we havent met that we might get POVs from.

    Im really bad at names specifically something Kouki(Arifureta) like.
    I mostly remember the humans as,
    tiny elf sensei
    Brawny prince guy
    Puny price guy
    Earth dragon tiny
    Nerd god message girl
    Trap girl
    Something like yandere little sister.

    Other than important ones like Julius.

    The timeline of the novel is wonky, since it shows both flashbacks and flashforwards. Basically, consider Kumoko's POV as the past timeline, while Shun's POV as the future (or in a sense, present.)
    During the early episodes when Kumo is in the cave levelling up, Shun and the others are still babies.
