So the battle with the power-boosted monster ends quickly, as expected, with Ray slicing it in two with the help of his friends, not that he needed it.

Then we jump right from the end of that practical exercise to him visiting his teacher Ainsworth, before again jumping to him back at school, having a day off.

I'm not sure how much time has passed here at all, or anything along those lines, but I suppose it's happening over a few days, maybe.

Some clarification would have been nice...

Anyways, we then see Ray go out with Elisa, as some sort of pseudo-date, where they end up meeting Claris as well and they have lunch together. He later, by happenstance, meets Amelia right as the other two leave, and then spends some time with her changing clothes and complimenting her on her appearance, etc.

The amount of poetic prose Ray nonchalantly uses with all of the girls, basically sweeping them off their feet while being smoother than butter is frankly entertaining and funny, weirdly so.

They make it so suave and over the top it's stupid, but still fun enough to watch.
He claims to not have a lot of knowledge of human interactions or emotions, but god damn he is emulating it very well.

I am not sure what this episode was supposed to be about, as it seems mostly like a filler episode where nothing much of importance happens, just some exposition and romantic developments.

He explains he now has these good friends and relationships after starting at the academy, but didn't he just start a couple of weeks prior? How have these things developed so quickly? What happened in between with development that no one told us about?

It seems to me this anime keeps on assuming things have happened, without showing or explaining to us exactly what or why, as well as making developments like close friendships happen effectively overnight when it would realistically take much longer or at least some specific event to build such bonds.

It's not that I think the anime is bad overall, it just seems to skip a lot of things I would have liked to see so everything makes sense and the show feels more fluid and realistic in the world it's set in.

This is especially weird as most of this episode is just filler and did not need to be there, outside of the comic release I suppose. Anyhow, they could have spent much of this episode developing characters and plot instead of doing this 'day off' filler-esk episode that is just there to stall for time or whatever its purpose is.

I am not overly impressed with how the show is handling a lot of things right now, but I am still as a whole enjoying it, so I will keep on watching it to get some more entertainment out of it. The best part of this show is the humor so far, but I hope the power fantasy aspects will creep in within the next episodes also.

I had been thinking of a ton of stuff about how daft some of the dialouge or at leasts its translation was this eps, but by the time I got to the end of the eps all I could think about was how Ray is a total pimp daddy and hes going to have a harem quick stat with his widely exaggerated complimenting of the fillies.

Elisa picked a REALLY big Book huh...

Meanwhile Ray got a normal sized book, looks tiny when put next to that big book.

Elisa also dressed up, but I think her regular hair style is cuter.

___ ___ ___

And then dude just sprout out non-stop flirting words to introduce the girls... really dude? was that really needed? couldn't just do a normal intro huh...

Then after, he did the same thing to describe Amelia's dress up.

Which Amelia had Ray go out with her...

Dude's really building that Harem.

As vezes nem é necessário ver tudo para seber que é ruim.

Mas se esta a procura de um anime generico, superficial e tem luta (com a animação baixa/mediana) ELE É PERFEITO.

Mas assiste ai para tirar tua conclusão

I sure hope nothing happens to that Al guy. It's just not an episode if he's not saying "Tch!" at least once or twice.

Why did this episode play out like those high school roleplaying games where you try to juggle different girls. So cringy

Apart from that we know that MC’s master is the person who wrote the books Elisa and two tails are reading. And that the master was the predecessor to ice blade sorcerer.
We also learn that MC lost his powers and it will take 5 years to recover, maybe he was discharged from the military for that reason.

Other than that, his angry teammate needs to relax. He’s going to pop a vein at the level he’s been stressed out to.
Bad episode not going to lie, that dating thing could’ve been skipped
