| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- One down for the party but at least he achieved what he originally quested for. I wonder why didn't they destroyed the circlet when they had the chance, I mean they already know that's Karla's true form and all. |

| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| Ghiiiiiiiiimmmm !!!!!!!! |
 |
| Goodbye Ghim :( And now it's Wood's turn. Geez that circlet has terrible taste. Really downgraded from Leylia lol. |
"May those who accept their fate be granted happiness." "May those who defy their fate be granted glory." |
| First half of the episode was awesome, loved that fight, rip Ghim, and probably very soon rip Wood ! |
| The animation in this episode was great. I don't really understand how Ghim died, though. He didn't seem that badly hurt at the end of the fight, but he just collapsed and died? Also, removing that circlet from Leylia's head by throwing a battleaxe at it without splitting her skull requires some true pro skills. Well, one bad guy down. Another one emerged from its ashes. |
| New mercenary characters seem interesting. A lot of plot armor in this episode though, especially when Parn got caught by Wood when he was tossed up by Karla because he was randomly on the roof? At the very end Ghim is now dead and Wood is the new villain thats crazy, wasn't expecting that to be honest. Real talk everyone of them is a dumbass, why would they leave the circlet there? I get they didn't know Karla could use it by itself but someone else could just put it on and Karla could then posses them like damn it's common sense to try and smash that thing. Last little nitpick is about how Parn is a hotheaded idiot still, learn from your mistakes man. At least think a little before you go running to your death. His reason for fighting was developed and his skills were developed but his stupid hotheaded personality is still the same as it was in the beginning. 2nd weakest episode but not bad by any means, other than my problems with it everything else was really enjoyable. That Ghim funeral scene was really well done. |
| why why ghim had to die. can't they use a resurrection spell like in rpgs. |
 |
| @Lorezhno You should know that the next OAVs will adapt two other novels/stories at a faster pace, while leaving out some (in other words, the characters are supposed to have "leveled-up" by going through other adventures between the ones featured in the OAVs). Also, not sure if you realized it by now but Kashew / Kashue is alive: (if I remember it right). |

| Kind of expected Ghim to die. though, it felt just like a justification for Karla to be taken down. And lol, Wood's the next shell. |
| ghim died? but how... lol. he seemed fine until he collapsed. seriously, wood? he's just not fit for that circlet, nor has he ever shown potential for being the next bearer. best part of this episode was the berserker and the girl, i sure hope they weren't only a passing incidence.. they probably were though. wish i could see em again. |
| Just wanted to say that I really love the brief eye movement of Deed in the OP. She's the most lovable character anyway (also has the best design out of the main group but it's probably due to female characters getting more attention design-wise overall, at least that's my impression). And apparently the only one who actually uses existing stances for swordfighting (not that I expected anything like that from fantasy or visual media in general, but I appreciate the rare sight of it). Though it's not unlikely that a correct stance was accidentally used just because it looks cool haha. The funniest part about Karla is that she actually has a point but it's tainted both by the nature of her character and by the conclusions she thinks follow from her criticism. "I have no use for pawns that refuse to be moved" - now that's a badass line. The predictability of everything makes it somewhat enjoyable to watch. There's a certain charm to it. I have my doubts that you can throw a battle axe into someone's face with that much precision without even damaging the body but whatever xD Of course Wakamoto's character can't resist becoming the villain :p ghim died? but how... lol. he seemed fine until he collapsed. Life-draining spell that he mostly took on himself by moving towards Karla, I guess. Plus previous damage from her spells. A lot of plot armor in this episode though, especially when Parn got caught by Wood when he was tossed up by Karla because he was randomly on the roof? Wood is a rogue and rogues wander in the shadows, unnoticable to the eye...or something. That's why he was on the roof. P.S. I wonder why does wikipedia list the OVAs as being 25-30 minutes when they're clearly a bit <25. |

| Ghim was able to accomplish what he set out to do, but at the cost of his own life. Also, is anybody gonna help Wood now? Anybody? lol |
| the Berserker is cool and RIP Ghim your sacrifice saved Leiyla but now the Grey Witch possessed WoodChuck another friend of theirs so the Grey Witch just wants to maintain the balance of power on Lodoss eh but she does it by playing them so thats what our Heroes cannot accept |
| Damn, I liked Ghim. :( |
| Beep boop |
| The best episode (drama helped a lot) ... How empty it is, when character gets killed without having developed. This series not hooked me so far yet (and I come after watching Crystania, that I liked a lot -with all its limitations budget and format type-) |
 |
| I thought it was interesting that Karla's stated objective was to stop the formation of a one world order, lest the world eventually fall under the domination of a tyrannical regime, be it by conquest of evil powers like Beld, or by a once heroic alliance inevitably being corrupted over time. |
| More like bandits than mercenaries. These two assholes tried to kill a bunch of travellers for no other reason than an uneducated assumption. Surprised Ghim died there. I thought he would be a mainstay of the party, and he didn't look like he took mortal damage. Leylia is seemingly back, but the circlet possessed Wood instead, who doesn't seem to have the same magic potential as Leylia had. Then again, it will probably confer him physical boosts instead. |

| Animation looked good. RIP Ghim. |
