| They can't even have a king's birthday celebration in peace. But on a bright note, at least Tinasha was able to help Oscar again when he needed the most. Episode kinda felt like a setup for something grander though. Just got a strange feeling about how they'll play Oscar into his role with his curse lifted. Lanak was super creepy this episode with his intentions... |

| "I'll kill that man and bring her back. If she still insists on being with another man, then I'll let her go." Yeah, totally believable and even reasonable train of thought. The way it was shown in the anime their relationship really didn't amount to much. It feels pretty illogical how hard he is trying when it didn't seem like they were ever really togheter. He just one-sidedly decided it was love at first sight and then never stopped, with little care for how she feels about it. |
| Someone who read the whole novel (6 volume according to the wiki) tell me, using spoiler, if this lanak and his friend mage will die in a painfull way in the next episodes. :) Anyway, the anime reach the manga adaption, it feel like many episodes are missing since it was so fast paced but make sense if they want to compress everything in 12 episodes. |

| WHAT THE HELL WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE HELL THE WHAT THE FUCK!!?? They kiss and on that night she leaves him to go to her who knows the fuck the king of Cuscull Lanak?? I feel so out of place dang I'm totally lost. Worst adaptation I've ever seen. No choice but to read the ln |
| Honestly in all seriousness the implosion of this adaption needs to be studied. |
 |
| Dude what the fuck is this pacing? The connection between the events is totally fucked up, i can't understand many things, like the coment above i am lost too. And a leak says that there will be 2 cours (will probably be announced at the last episode), this is just a stupid screenwriter. |
 |
| I feel like I just watched someone's fever dream. What the fuck is even going on at this point? The pacing was already wack from the beginning but now I'm definitely dropping this... |

| Holyyy, Lanak pulling up and taking Oscar’s girl right in front of him is hilarious icl. I almost wanted her to stay with Lanak until their backstory got revealed, now I just want to see Lanak die in the most painful way imaginable. The ritual scene with him stabbing Tinasha was so hard to watch man wtf. Betrayed Tinasha trust and led to the destruction of the kingdom with her awakening her powers. Oscar please kill this dude painfully. Surely Tinasha has a plan too, putting the per…blood on Oscar ear, leaving her dragon with him, I’m sure she knows he’ll come for her. Still, the pacing in the show feels all over the place at times, particularly as it relates to their relationship because we had the rape joke stuff last week and now they’re kissing? When Oscar went to go meet his dad at the end to let him know what he was planning, the king goes “maybe it runs in the blood” could be a literal thing about being hardheaded, but I think it also is a reference to falling for witches because I’m pretty sure Oscar’s mom will end up being a witch that somehow had a rivalry with another one leading to the curse. Last week hinted at it with that red orb in the treasury too. F’s in the chat for poor Cecilia too. Tried Rizzing Oscar up just to get aired and kicked out by Tinasha after being called an imbecile lmaoo Pacing aside, solid episode |

@GeoXsf9 It was an act, to spare his life. She is putting a face to decieve Lanak. There is no way she has forgiven him for what he has done to her.
| @Mainblocks That's exactly my thoughts too, that she has a plan against Lanak but is going along with whatever he's scheming for now. To add, the witch Lucrezia explained how Tinasha left her dragon in Oscar's care and how Tinasha protected Oscar against Lanak. Also, I think Tinasha knows that Oscar will show up and therefore may wait for him to put her plans in motion, and regarding the people that disappeared from the village she "attacked" I think she transferred them to an undisclosed location. |
| I like the story, characters are interesting, and art style is decent, but can't shake off feeling of skipping every second episode. Narration is a mess, animation quality often straight up bad. What a shame. |

I usually couldn't care less about a series like this, but for some reason the build up seems so good, and the characters act like normal people, not the generic "cold-blooded" or "powerful and careless". It will be interesting to see how Tinasha will break Oscar's heart,
. I feel like we will have, at least 1 episode, of preparing for the "grand battle". Hope they will make it well and don't rush things. I haven't read the light novel, so definitely interesting how things will go.
It just doesn't add up. Maybe she was preparing Oscar for this moment? But that still doesn't make sense on why she would do this? Even if she was protecting Oscar, I feel like together they could've defeated the guy right there? Maybe we'll get some backstory next episode, or in the close future.

The reason why, its explained in the ln, but with how certain scenes and lore has been skipped, i dont know how it will be explained on the anime, and if it will make sense. But they do explain why tinasha acted the way she did. |
| I know I've criticized the Slime anime a lot recently with its pacing and execution being too slow, repetitive and lacking in imagination, but this anime might be as egregious with how godawful and rushed the pacing is as the story really doesn't explain and guide through Oscar and Tinasha's relationship to get to this point compared to where it was last week, and the week before that, etc. The light novel's extra stories definitely handle the transitions a lot smoother even with some weird stuff here and there, but the anime just says 'fuck that' and has so many things happen that don't even make sense with how jumpy it is with everything when she was denying wanting to be married to having Oscar go too far previously and then insert some scenes with Tinasha sitting on Oscar's lap and being very close to now kissing him and jumping into his arms and there's no structure to that whatsoever (even if the kiss was more of a goodbye for her), let alone the lore and actual story taking place besides that. Essentially, stuff just happens in this adaptation and because the buildup to everything is so rushed and skipped beyond belief and relationships are horribly built up, nothing feels like it matters. Feels like episodes just disappeared off the face of the earth before this one took place and that feeling is present in the others too. You can tell that Tinasha is up to something with Lanak that goes beyond how she acted but the execution again... was pretty rough. Even Oscar breaking the curse felt like absolutely nothing either and that was the key point which was a part of the hook in the premiere episode. The animation here did not help whatsoever in redeeming anything about this episode. I'm not particularly a fan of the books but even I feel like this series didn't deserve the adaptation it is getting, ENGI are not the best and watching episodes like these just gives me negative confidence in their capabilities with light novel/visual novel material. It feels way too forced having to get to the end of Volume 3 no matter what and sacrificing important storytelling and development beats to get to that point and have the series still matter and be impactful. This project is just a soulless mess. |
| Started this episode like what??? WHAT???? and then ended it with oh to protect him from the real big bad of the series okay |
| This is all over the place |
 |
| They are kissing now all of a sudden. Their relationship is all over the place. I'll never understand why the heroines let themselves be taken if they just want to be saved later on. Just let him do it right there, it's not like he's gonna go through a training arc to get stronger and get you back. He's already strong enough to do that. Anyway chad Oscar became king and gonna get his queen. I hope he kills that bastard painfully. |

| Every episode feels like I might have missed something, it's just a mess. Well let's see what Tinasha her real plan actually is, but man can barely get excited anymore when it's so rushed. |
| Christ, this anime is so fucking lame XD Not even just the presentation of events, the events themselves are laughable. |
| NO NTR NO NTR NO NTR |
| Skipping supporting character developments as always. 😬😬😬 aka the blonde knight who was crying for a few seconds. |
| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| wtf. was that. everything happened way too fast |
 |
| Tinasha is the type of woman that would go back to her toxic abusive ex 😭 |
 |
| this is getting interesting and more interesting |
