| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well this was an interesting episode, taking on a sea adventure style that makes it more refreshing. Arslan and his comrades are treated liked honored guests too. Some of the guys are getting some treatment from the Zot Clan XD Looks like we got some sea warfare with pirates. What I also find interesting is that we also meet a possible friend/rival for Narsus and Arslan discovering sea for the first time. Will be interesting to see how that develops. Decent action. I wish there were more. |

| Arriving at Gilan, it seems the slavery issue is costing Arslan support. On the flipside, he may have gained some from fighting off those pirates. Also, another glorious Farangis end card showing off her big, beautiful tits this week, but with Gieve on it too I'll refrain from posting it. XD |
| It really reminds me of anime "Ronja". And I haven't finished watching it. LOL Feels more excited now that they have meet with more ally. But seems it will need more time to become real, especially with this pirate and slavery issues. |

| Quite liking the development so far. The action on boats is a nice change of pace, instead of the fights on land, that its been so far. Lol, love how when Gieve mentioned Daryun all the pirates got scared as hell xD Looking forward to the next episode. Would think Arslan will have gained quite a bit of support from their assistance |
| So the city of Gilan also incorporates slavery to make off its wealth . But i think with arslan and his companions' assistance against pirates, they'll be indebted to them and agree on an alliance and abolishing slavery maybe. I like the idea of naval battles. A nice change of pace from land battles. And lol them pirates running to save their asses after knowing Daryun's identity . Will be interesting to see Narsus and Shagad friendship/rivalry . |
 |
| *Daryun casually kills abunch of people, then asks who wants to die first* It was also really funny to see the pirates flee in terror from him after finding out who he is. Usually he's on a battlefield with other soldiers who don't have that option. I missed watching OP Daryun fight during the break between seasons. If this were a Fire Emblem game (which it feels like sometimes, with the main cast fighting a ton of enemies and completely wrecking them), he'd be the Oifey, but ridiculously better. Curb stomp battles are awesome as long as they're badass enough. |
| Those were some nice jugs that Farangis had there. |

QuynhNhu said: But I'm curious where they get the new outfit. And where did they store their old ones? Daryun and Arslan have their armors and the packages on the back of their horses didn't seem big enough for them. And when they entered the city the horses of the whole group are gone XD So we got to know Narsus' old friend who is most likely supporting the pirates and the trader/fighter dude who will join Arslan's group. |
Nice to see Farenghis in the endcard :p |
| Gilan is a nice town, very nice setting. Our potential new allies are here :D |
| We one Piece now? Nice nice :D Lol Alfraid |
| lol poor Narsus and Gilan is a nice town and the have new allies i guess |
 |
| Love the atmosphere in this coastal town. It's a nice change from the usual. Dunno why, but I can't shake off the feeling that things will go south with Shagad. |

No, they won't. For one, even if we believe the Viceroy and the pirates are a threat, letting them be would be less of an economical loss than abolishing slavery (though it would still be just a trivial loss, especially if you handle abolition properly). But seriously, the pirates no doubt work for the city, thus why nobody came to help the poor sailors: the merchants pay the Pirates to steal the foreign goods because it's cheaper than having to buy the said goods. So if anything, they'll be pissed if Arslan saves the city from slavery (but we all will enjoy it :D ). |

| Narsus friend ... felt strang this episode. Somehow I think he might be related to that pirates. Merchang ship captain that is good at fighting ... I liked him. Might become a good friend of Daryun ha ha. |
| Shagard is bad news. Wouldnt be surprised if he ended up being with the pirates! |

| Everyone is just so amazing...all hail the awesomeness of DARYUN <3 |
| Wasn't expecting to like this season that much considering it's only 8 episodes,but so far enjoying it more than S1. Like how fast pace this compared to how slow S1 was,makes me realize how much better S1 would've been if it had had this pacing. |
| when the pirates ran after knowing they were fighting Daryun, this was funny. |
If you are going to disagree with me, don't bother talking to me. I will seriously hurt you! |
| So can someone who actually read the novels tell me: will we get only till the end of vol. 6 or till the end of vol. 7? |

| The slavery issue really will cost Arslan a lot of supporters between the wealthy and powerful. He needs to get the slaves on his side. I hope we get more than 8 episodes of this fine story, |

| A new hot guy joins them but it seems he may turn evil in the future. Alfrid is the best, Narsus should marry her for real x3 |
 |
| Kind of a bummer that this season is only 8 episodes. Seems like they are going to have to cram a lot in these next 4 episodes to wrap up this arc. Overall tho I am really happy so far with this season as the show has definitely continues to improve upon its previous episodes/season |
| Damn Daryun is so badass. I love him the most he's just so op. <3<3<3 |
 |
| Why isn't this shit 24 episodes? Not enough material? Or is this a shot to see if the anime gets popular so they can continue it? Sorry for being ignorant. |
 |
| The best part of the episode was at the end where Gieve revealed who Daryun was to the pirates and then he began glaring at them. Don't mess with the biggest badass in the series punks! |
 |
 I love him. Every time Alfreed calls herself Narsus' wife, he gets so upset. My poor gay babe. |

| Felt like ibe as watching akatsuki no yona arc where they fight pirates too |
| Daryun playing around with his opponents again. GG. |
| Daaaaaamn the captain of that ship is fiiiiiiine (Daryun is still the hottest but damn) Also this episode proved my point for the fact the King totally wanted Arslan to die or something. THERE WERE BANDITS! Like his ass would be dead or captured and turned into a slave/hostage or something if he was alone. Also Narsus' friend is suspect asf. He's totally gonna betray their trust or something. A shame, he's nice eye candy. |

Damn. I wanted to see the final of the first arc (even if a bit rushed). Hope they-ll announce another short season/OVAs or a movie. |

| So they go to to Gilan to get an army. There they meet Shagad who is an old friend of Narsus. But this guy looks like he might become a bit hostile. Arslan's announcement that he'll abolish slavery hasn't been well received in this city because the merchants are heavily dependant on slaves to have their merchandise moved and all that. No slaves would be problematic for them as there won't be many people available to do all the hard work. And Shagad has slaves himself despite having promised to end slavery with Narsus. He did say that he'll do whatever he can to help Arslan, but he looks way too suspicious. And that viceroy lol. What a guy. Daryun, Gieve, Farangis help save a merchant ship from pirates to help make them famous so that people will trust them more and it will eventually help them in gaining followers and an army. The viceroy is useless right now because of pirates which really is a questionable excuse. Shagad might turn against Arslan. So Arslan will have to get followers some other way. Also, the Zot clan guy with that Maryam princess is Alfreed's aniki. |
| Ahh this episode was interesting ;; Especially because when I watched the original OVA, they didn't show the Gilan part. In any case, I spoilered myself with the novels but I have no idea how it'll all play out. I don't usually say this because it just doesn't feel right but Arslan is my son. He's so precious ?!?!?!? |
 |
| This arc looks good, I like the new city. With this action, Arslan will certainly get more allies. |
I think the port town is one of the more interesting settings that we've been introduced to up to now. |
 |
| Seems that Kenjirou likes to play buff dudes that don't like to wear shirts this season. Then again, Fango was only shirtless during that weird bedroom scene. I DIGRESS. Shagad is sus as fuck. |
Friends are there to lend a hand when you can’t do something on your own. It’s not one person doing all the work protecting everyone, we help each other when in need. That’s what friends are for.  |
| Really enjoying this new city. I'm pretty excited for this new arc and still slightly salty that it's only going to be 8 episodes. |
 |
| A new city and a lot of new people, seems that this arc is going to be good! Why we are only getting 8 episodes?! Such a shame... |

Glad I am not the only one to think like that when I saw the new character xD The bara doujin writers will have some new ideas after those smirks and looks he gives Daryun xD Enjoyed the episode, new setting and new characters all look interesting, also the ED and OP are still fire. |
 |
| I knew it, Shagad was a fucking liar. He was keeping slaves, he had this dishonest vibe about him. Mother fucker looks like he might backstab or even front stab them at any time. |
| 臭い- |
| Marzban Daryun's name is so feared and that was wow in a sense. Those pirates fled like crazy when it was mentioned by Gieve, it shows that his name can reach through the seas. |
