I’ve been waiting for the other shoe to drop, not sure I’m ready for the next episode 🥲

Oh I don’t doubt at all that the manga is fantastic but I’m the kinda person who doesn’t bother with anime if I’ve already read the manga.

I’ll start reading from the beginning and see if I wanna keep reading still after reaching the point where season 1 ends.

Indeed, there are tons of things we don’t know about the mad sorcerer that we will learn as the story continues.

Looking forward to it! I’m tempted to pick up the manga but the anime has been so perfect >.>

Me after seeing the news

Not in a thousand years would I’ve thought that the solution to the Falin problem would be to eat her lol, it is very fitting I suppose. Wonder why they couldn’t just ask dungeon master to revert Falin and Izu to their human selves after defeating him? Maybe that’ll be answered later in the story.

Wonderful season, glad they’ve already announced season 2, can’t wait!

That was such a wonderful little arc of going from “Chilchuck is scared cause he’s worried of what’ll happen to him” to “he’s scared of what’ll happen to his friends”.

Yet another time this anime has made me cry even as I know exactly what to expect, having read the manga.

Almost cried when I saw this too, it’s such a sweet moment. I love how over the course of the show, party has slowly felt less and less like just coworkers and more like actual close friends.

Me after almost every episode - " wow that was the best episode yet! "

Also Marcille’s reaction to finding out about Chilchuk’s family had me rolling 🤣 She’s so funny!

Yeah it’s really cool how something initially seems not important and later gets elaborated on, nothing ever feels like it came outta nowhere.

Me every time he’s on the screen lol, except the latest episode where he came in for the save.

Laios reads too ace for me to want to ship him with anybody lol, but yeah, they never miss a chance to provide the people with some good Senshi fan-service XD

I can never ever predict where this show will go next, it’s insane how nothing ever proceeds in a way that I expect and it also never feels unnecessarily subversive, so good! Even though it’s supposed to be a very old-school style fantasy, it’s such a fresh story.

When I saw the extra Marcille designs I thought they were pulled from early concepts, poor girl, not a single fashion appreciater in her party.

There was another ship moment when they were standing in front of the window, they looked like a cute family. Unfortunately, I just don’t see Laios as the romantic sort.

They really were acting like proud parents, it was very adorable! (　＾ω＾)

Yeah that definitely sounds like it’s not lethal. Guess izutsumi didn’t know.

The spell Maizuru used to keep track of Izu may not actually be lethal. She used to use the exact same spell to keep Shuro from running off as a child, so it might be that all it does is scare the subject.

It definitely seemed lethal with the way it was using that knife, probably a modified version of the same spell that she used for Shuro, I think.

Izu wants her curse broken, but it wasn’t placed on her by the Nakamotos.

I see, probably from some dealer who sells “exotic” slaves, yuck (._.)

I don’t know, if that were the case it would’ve been shown I think, considering the curse placed on her Shuro would’ve said something about that if he was concerned. Marcille explains that separating souls is kinda impossible even for a mage of her caliber, I don’t think Shuro would’ve assumed that she could do it.

I see, I assumed he was experienced based on what’s presented in the show so far, thanks for additional info.

I understand how he is the way he is and why that’s interesting but yeah, still don’t like him, maybe my opinion will change in the future.

And yeah, totally agree, Falin is too nice to be with him.

Maizuru kinda sounds like Vivienne from dragon age… I hate that character lol. I don’t know if I agree with Kubro not being responsible, he did leave Izutsumi behind knowing full well what’ll happen to her. He’s not a sheltered child anymore, he’s an experienced adventurer, he’s seen what the world is like and has enough experience to be able to understand that his slaves are people, not property. A friendly slaver is still a slaver after all.

Anyways, from what I gather the story won’t focus on Shuro or his family much so not much point speculating what he feels or thinks about this subject, or what he might do in the future.

I see, sounds good. Hope our main party have some opinions on it, Laios believed Shuro to be his bff so I wonder how he’d feel about him after learning more about Izutsumi. Regardless, I hope the show is not neutral about it like so many animes these days are. Thanks for all the lore, helps expand my understanding of the story and characters.
