Wow hero, were you going to wait until they killed her or something?

As much as some of this episode was really hard to watch,
it was a really good speech and support from the Winter King was an awesome moment!

What was up with the end part though, I didn't quite get that.

Damn what a girl...

Pretty powerful speech from fake Maou and this episode kind of gives an idea what the Church in medieval times up was actually like. Events like this were relatively commonplace during the era of the Spanish Inquistion. Kind of surprised though this speech took up the whole episode but was needed looking back. Now I want to see how the real Maou is doing in her renewal of her Demon King license and such.

Awesome episode, so intense. I was frickin' angry looking at the messenger, and inquisitors hitting the girl.
Best episode so far, the girl's speech was undeniably amazing.
At the end, was it the light spirit, or the previous Maou, I wonder... So many Heroes, same head gear too.

Nice speech of freedom from the sister maid. I had to almost finish Maoyu just to understand the true meaning of that speech .

Good to see the Winter King step up to the plate. Looks like we might be about to have a Reformation here--although if Maoyuu's intention is to end conflict this may set it back a bit. There's no war like a religious war, especially when two monotheistic faiths (or an established church and a reform movement) are fighting.

Mnn, first let me say that I enjoyed it. Like many others have said, this episode finally felt like something happening. It wasn't as detached as the previous.

That said, it was sort of awkward. They built the atmosphere beautifully, but it was to the point that it was more wanting her words to be revelatory than the conclusion actually being that interesting. I was hoping she was really going somewhere with the speech. The atmosphere came at a more direct price too. While the feeling was just right, it's ridiculous on closer inspection to think that they would whip her mercilessly for missing a step then just allow her to give a speech with minimal interruption. There's no way she would have been given the chance, and the indignation was far too weak and late.

Moving away from the speech, that seal eye thing and glowing woman (light spirit?) at the end were certainly out of nowhere. With just 3 episodes to go I can't imagine the conclusion will be satisfying.

I'm moved by this amazing episode and her speech. My favorite part was when the spectators threw rocks at the Church's dogs.

It's like I'm watching an anime about how the human race should have moved forward from 500 years ago. Minus the demons.

Hello! This is my first time delving into posting actively on MAL but i felt that i should post my response to this episode.

Maoyuu Maou Yuusha is not a typical genre that you see alot. Though it has very strong similarities to Spice and Wolf on the romance level.

Finally we get to touch upon the true meaning and significance this series is attempting to tell. Being told be the right person and the power behind simply words that can stir emotions in almost anyway. It makes one reflect on our own lives and how we live it.

Overall this episode to me was by far the best episode to date.

For those who are confused or upset by the lack of action of the Hero it is mostly due to him realizing she is fighting in her own way... feeling powerless in a conflict that doesn't necessarily involve her. As a person who has learned of the kindness of the Demon King and Hero she has broke her shackles of being defeated as a "insect" or slave.

Cant wait for whats to come!

This is the whole theme of this LN, a light-novel take, with all the entertaining elements that youngsters nowadays are receptive like fantasy or moe, on an accelerated telling of human society development that touches on technology, commerce, education, religion, war, ethnic and class discrimination etc.

Anyway, we now see how the maid's serf background came back as an important element in story development and started something that perhaps even Maou has not planned on yet: Serf Emancipation will start to spread now.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Well,the inquisitor was the one who told the girl to speak up whatever she want.It was rude to interrupt lol
Anyway, the inquisitor prepared some stone to the crowd and he was expecting the crowd to throw stone at her. I think he was shock at the response as well .

This speech was already quite dull in manga but here I just skipped over most of it. There's something wrong with scrip or directing in this series. I just don't care what is happening and everything seems so forced. Original is really good but anime is so mediocre I'll forget it shortly after it's over. Just as I feared, another great story wasted by adaptation that shouldn't exist.
