THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I was preparing for major face palm moments when I saw onsen on that map. Looks like I wasn't far off...

And I'd expect foggy censors placed at inconvenient spots. Anime logic also dictates that the MC (Mononobe) in this case would get into some controversial spot so I wasn't surprised when he ended being up in the same onsen bath as the other girls; except he was hiding.

As for censors, wait for BDs. Creatures of this show keeps getting more bizarre each week..

Mononobe gets to experience what's it like being inside the hot springs as the only lone male hiding away from the naked beauties. x3 Good job, Fyril! xD

Well that Mistilteinn failed to destroy the Basilisk. That big monster unleashed a powerful red beam of death from its third eye. o_O Looks like it's up to the young ones to stop this beast..

Good episode.

I loved how Fyril tricked Mononobe into going to the hot spring which reserved for him only for one day and let then him knew the truth by saying that she let him to see the naked beauties in return to make him happy.

As expected we got some hot spring fanservice. Also as expected the bomb didn't work...well at least they tried. Tear remains adorable and Honoka suspicious. On a personal note that commander shares my first name. Felt kinda weird hearing them say it, mighta been my first time watching an anime with a character that had my name. :D

This show has several elements of a really good show. Good opening, Cool sound track, monsters that pose a real threat, an ever present sense of danger, cool "Super powers" and a power that comes at a high price.
except it fails to put them together. Mixed with terrible animations, really really boring characters and half assed fan-service it just falls SO FLAT.

Though this episode i got some SERIOUS NGE vibes. Anyone else get those?

The usual situation of the male on a hot spring with woman... can't they change that to the guy's perspective for once... "hey your thing is hard, hey you wan't to touch it" < intended as a joke as to what the girls always say.

Still, I found funny with that music transition between the girls and Monobe.

I don't think that the BD will have less "censorship".

It's a shame that the giant steel thing was easily obliterated by that hidden third eye. And it's after Tear.

It's a trope, but it's still kinda unfair on the guy. He was there first after all, and he'd even been invited. Still, at least they didn't do the whole "discovery and kicking to death" thing.

Fryil is such a great wing-man. Onsen cliche without the truly ecchi stuff. What the heck is with the Evangelion parody in the last 4 minutes?
Welp, that's pretty much all I got out of the entire show.

This show really doesn't do a great job at piecing it all together coherently. I always feel like I'm missing some monologue or some pieces of information that should have been provided to us from the go. And whilst that D looked kinda like a cool snapper turtle, the animation for it was lame as heck, I would have expected more since seeing the other one a few episodes back.

I feel like the adaptation isn't doing the Novel justice somehow... Kinda like how I felt for Vanadis.

A minor annoyance on my part, but I hate the way they'really naming the "dragons". How is that, in any way, a basilisk? It'a like they'really just chposing random monster names, without consideration as to what they refer to.

Nothing special in this episode, the uselessness of the bomb was too predictable. The hot spring part was cool.

Well the assassin background went to nothing this episode.
How can that guy by an "assassin" if he fell for such on obvious trap, being lured into the hot spring that is.
Then again it's anime.

Solo hot springs? Nope! Nice one, Fyril. (^_^)
So the NIFL decided to drop a bomb, but the Basilisk freakin' has a third eye!
Seems like Mononobe and friends will stop this one.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

Might have to add Firill to the harem now. She done good.

The spinning top was destroyed.

For the salt pillars of the "dead sea" in the second impact ?.

The question isn't "What anime do you like?" That is merely a list.
The question is "Why do you like it?" That tells a story. Your story.

Better than the swimsuit episode I say

Other than that, that dropping of Misteltainn reminded me of Ultron dropping Sokovia in Avengers 2 lol

This was probably the second best episode of the series so far, trailing only the opener, and not even trailing that one by much. It did everything magnificently. We got our hot spring relaxation and comedy, but not too much of it. Everyone was also still focused on the main objective. The dragon's true power was revealed, and it was a dangerous one- it massively speeds up the time of anything that gets hit by its beam. By like 1,000 years. Not even elves live that long (not that there are elves in this show)! NIFL is cocky with its weapon it built, Mistletein, but the dragon had an ace up his sleeves- a third eye. That eye produced the most powerful beam of them all and absolutely destroyed Mistletein. Episode ends with everyone wondering, "what do we do now?" Well first, don't leave NIFL in charge. Second, go out there and fight. You'll think of something. This dragon btw was by far the best looking dragon in the series so far. With that being said, it still doesn't look like a dragon. Baby steps, baby steps. Through nine episodes, my rating is 7.3/10. Now 3/4 complete. Three episodes to go!
