| Man this episode. Steph was such a try-hard but just kept losing every game lol. Doesn't learn to give up, but I guess thats just one great thing about her. Also Steph on a leash in that costume? Yes please. I laughed so hard at the part where Sora realised that if warbeasts looked like how Steph was dressed in that cute animal girl outfit then that means the kingdom of the warbeasts are filled with cute busty anime girls with "real" animal ears ^^ That part was just pure gold. He looked so concentrated and determined about it too, kind of reminded me of a part in the series - Outbreak Company. Then Shiro started going all super cute and innocent (evil innocence) and started wearing Steph's pantsu on her head along with Steph's bra~ Then the last part where Jibril makes an appearance, it was hilarious when everything was so godly and holy and suddenly when "death/angel" spoke, they all collapsed on the floor saying her voice ruined her holiness. That was also pretty funny. Overall, I give this episode yet another 5/5 because it deserved it. Each of these episodes has epicness that doesn't end and it keeps making you LOL. |

| That Laputa Reference! even changed clothing :') as an episode though I guess it was ok |
| Stephanie didn't learn much from her defeat during the first part of the episode tho it did seems she was learning towards that end. Tho Sora committed a sin by ordering Stephanie wear glasses, tho this is a common problem in anime recently ruining girls by making them wear glasses. The accent of the girl at the end was great can't wait to see what will happen next week. Would love to hear more of that accent. |
| Funny as hell as usual no game no life never dissapoints me hehe Oh man i cant wait for the fight with jibril i have been looking forward to it, but some of the stuff they say are just too complicated to understand, not the info itself but the speed and time in which they talk is too fast understand and the eng sub dont do it right. I really need to brush up on my Japanese cause i cant keep going on with sub only |

Actaully, it wasn't her voice, but what she said. She was speaking with god-awful Engrish. Also, I hope, that they will finish the game in the next episode. And that they include Jibril trying to force her Osake dialect... |
| Amazing episode as usual. That ending was epic! Can't wait for next episode. |

And that they include Jibril trying to force her Osake dialect... I just went back to check it, and I'm pretty sure her accent hence (her voice) that ruined the moment as well. Though yes her grammer was off. I don't know about you, but normal girls don't sound like that. |

| lol steph sure is courage (or should I say stupid) for keeping challenging them. |
| For those who seek perfection, there can be no rest on this side of the grave. Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment. |
| Hell yes, Yukari Tamura is perfect as Jibril |

| "Only an iditot starts a game they can't win." yeah, true that. xD |
  |
| this duo is so awesome they're so funny poor steph |
 |
| Yep, Steph is the Ms. Fanservice of this series. There's bound to be exhibitionist/animal ear/slave/humiliation doujins of her in the future. I can't tell if she's persistent or just plain satisfyingly stupid. I certainly look forward to more lewd Steph. Where can I adopt a Steph ;3? You would think Shiro and Sora would hit it big in Vegas with their thorough knowledge of games. Who would've thought they were actually doing research and watching their step before attempting to take over the Beast kingdom. |

| Animal girls or Angels? that's one tough decision ;) Steph <3 |
 |
| as usual, lots of sibling love and steph tease. Really reminds me of my cute imouto whom I will see next week. |

| Good stuff - and now its Jibril time ;3 though I wonder how far the anime will take the adaption.. I was hoping wed get to the rematch with Clammy/Feel |
Takuan_Soho said: Approva said: Not as good as the last, but still pretty awesome. What was up with Steph 'crying' scales..? Those were "scales falling from the eyes". It's an idiom from Acts 9:18 and Paul's conversion; about how suddenly someone saw something as it truly was as opposed to how they thought it was true. They were also her contact lenses, which is why she switched to glasses :-) This author is extremely literate, so anything that doesn't quite make sense is probably because one doesn't get the reference. Lovely episode start to finish, nice use of fanservice to distract from the fact that 88% of this episode was exposition. Very well done. Huh, so that wasn't random comedy, but a specific (and rather obscure) biblical reference. Makes me wonder what others I've overlooked. |

| Great one like the other. A good reference to Laputa (even the song change for a remake of one in the film). Looking forward for the next one ^^ |

| Laputa really exists! Lol Really funny episode. |
 |
| Steph needs to start winning some games, Sora are Shiro are just too cool. Hope next episode will be just as good or better! |
| Oh wow didn't know that the scales was actually a reference to something (or an idiom), now I know :) It's always nice to read about things that I have overlooked. But the Laputa one was pretty funny, I love how the siblings even tried the spell XD Overall, fun episode, not the funniest, but I liked learning about their world, and how as Sora said, Imanity doesn't even seem like they're trying because he and Shiro can't find anything related to other races' weaknesses. |
| See kids, knowledge is everthing. |
Takuan_Soho said: Notchrishansen said: Huh, so that wasn't random comedy, but a specific (and rather obscure) biblical reference. Makes me wonder what others I've overlooked. There is a difference between something that is an "idiom" and a "reference". The idiom references the bible, however the show references the idiom. Most people who use the idiom have no idea that it references the bible, but "scales fall from one's eyes" is a very well known idiom in English and I imagine in most European languages as well. It is so common that one can search for it in common dictionaries. http://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/The+scales+fall+from+eyes Oh...first I've ever heard of that idiom. |

| Poor Steph... Losing so many times, must have been embarassing but she still kept on fighting for her goal. Respect. And now Blank, towards the next victory we go! Looking forward to the next ep!ˇ |

Without cheating, who do people think this quote is from? Truth be told...Hell if I know. Yet another idiom, I've never heard of. Mod Edit: Removed delete quote. |

| Oh my god. I absolutely lost it with the Laputa reference and Blank's change of clothes. I had to pause the episode for a couple of minutes. And poor Steph (although I can't complain with her being the fanservice). Even her grandfather had no mercy on her. This was a funny episode but not as great as the previous ones. However, it was a transition episode to what seems like an epic confrontation that is coming up with the "angel/death". I can't wait for next week. Aschente! Also, Stephservice = Bestservice. |

| Hmm... I only know that "scale fall from one's eyes" is a common Japanese idiom. I've seen it many times in several manga. After some googling it seems that the idiom is really borrowed from the Bible, so kudos to that. http://thejapanesepage.com/w/index.php?title=Body_part_idioms 目から鱗が落ちる me kara uroko ga ochiru - lit. scales fall from eyes - suddenly be able to see the real situation/understand something - see the light (From Bible) |
| Stop being such a Steph and feeling bad for her :P Also i love Soro reasoning for taking over WereBeast for them furrys Howl's moving castle <3 |
| Steph's grandfather when she lost xD Shiro and Sora's reaction when they learned that Steph is smart. So warbeast looks like that, Shiro wantingbit for the ears. Steph kept on losing was funny. Shiro goes against Steph so her brother won't be fulfilled =) That Laputa reference! Flubel that can mind read, can't wait till the game they play! |
 |
| Hilarious episode. Easily AOTY to me so far. |
Around and around the cycle goes. |
| Stop being such a Steph, Steph :3 Her grandpa when she lost XD The angel's voice and their reactions made me LOL so hard :P |
| Another great episode.Such a shame this show isn't 2-cour - hopefully there is going to be announcement for season 2 at the end of 1. Laputa really exists! That new girl is such a hottie tho.I heard there are many great moments with her in LN, i really hope they will animate all/most of them. |
 |
| Lol, poor Steph. Lost almost all of her clothing. Still hot though. Good episode, lol that ending. Didn't expect the "angel" to speak like that. Seems like she's going to be a great character. Can't wait. |
| An alright episode, the comedy was a little much but the tiny bit of the episode that was serious was good. |
| I liked the comedy this episode, gave me some decent chuckles. So Steph is intelligent when it comes to anything that aren't games? Who would've thought. Pretty fun episode overall, I hear the next one's going to be amazing. Can't wait. |
