Damn, this show really has some creepy designs...like that hand thing. 

This episode put Saitou and his party against some tough monsters and Raezla isn't in the best of mood for the challenge. Poor Lafan, even she got caught into this mess. Honestly, it feels like their world is never ending in danger.

Continuing off from last episode's cliffhanger, Morlock entrusting his (technically not) daughter to Saitou, it's the only logical way to do so, even if the Handyman himself doesn't feel worthy of the woman warrior. Damn, what a heartwarming scene...taken by the slight edge of danger when the wolf comes after the both of them, and Raelza throwing into a fit of rage is only apt.

The magical beast hunter Liliza clearly states the way to hunt a hellhound, though obviously Raelza didn't heed that clause with Morlock's magic imbued in the wolf. Sparing the pup to save of what can be spared towards the warrior herself, the mysterious demon coming to take the hunting dog's life with it from its own vengeance, it's a battle to save lives, with Lafanpan's gold coins finally having a reason why she always claims them for a shield.

But too like the impendng danger, Lafanpan brought herself into danger, knowing the consequences of death. And then there's monsters from the Demon Realm putting everyone's very lives on the line, and the handyman finding himself useless in battle, he's totally not now...while only as a sacrifice, but not without his planning to have the hunting dog next to Morlock, reminding him about family and reviving back to life with the most chad dad energy against the demon, almost being equal.

Old Man Morlock inheriting the pup's ears, a total LMAO I was NOT expecting at all, that was a good one!

HOT DAMN, WHAT AN EPISODE. I'm only convinced that this is getting to be the best Isekai of the pack this season.

God damn what an episode! Morlocks fight was so badass! And Raelza is soooo good!

This is such a good adventure party as well. While Saitou isn't gifted Physically or Magically he's insanely smart and witty and is able to think on the fly.

God I love all of these characters.

The romance builds, and it actually happens? Morlock giving his daughter (by name) to Saitou, and both Raelza and Saitou had their share of moments of genuinely epic proportions. I genuinely thought it would be possible that someone would die this episode, but it didn't happen, which is quite alright as well. Everyone was in danger this episode, and I was on the edge of my seat as they fought the demons. Even if the hunting dog story ended up being quite well done.

Best episode of the show so far in my opinion, that was amazing. This is a rare isekai gem.

Fucking goosebumps man I ain’t know c2c had this in their bag? That was some of the best sakuga we’ve seen this season, masterclass of an ep. Had stakes, tension, drama and some really emotional moments. Can’t wait to see how Raelza and Saitou relationship develops going forward

Yes, you can expect from C2C to deliver some very well done episodes, constructed with action, drama and emotion, the way the studio did with Majo no Tabitabi.

Not only the animation went next level, but Morlock was such a badass in this episode.

Forget Saitou, Morlock is the new protagonist.


Naturally -- Morlock must marry Raelza with Saitou!

This show seems criminally underrated at this point. I mean it isn't amazing, but it's better than quite a few other shows rated higher this season.

Banger episode, this anime turned out much better than I had initially expected it to be.
I'm once again impressed by the production quality C2C can bring just like they previously did with Tsukimichi Moonlit Fantasy, Majo no Tabitabi and Sword Dad.

holy moly, this episode is by far the best one yet.
It has romance between Saitou & Raelza, which is priority nr 1 for me in this anime. Saitou finally realized that Raelza has feelings for him & he feels the same as Raelza.
Drama and epicness from all of 'em. Badass fighting animation from C2C as well.
I'm really looking forward for the next two episodes.

For real... this Anime really likes building up emotion throughout an episode and then ending with a 5-second punchline. I like it!
This episode has shown potential for a serious aspect of this Anime and, if this will keep on going for another season or more, I'd love to see a bit more of that, with the usual wholesome fun shenanigans being the core of it of course.

This chapter was awesome! It would have been perfect if there had been better insertion of songs in key scenes. It was a great chapter! Grandpa is an incredible character and never ceases to amaze me, either in comic moments, in action scenes, or simply because of the big heart he has!

This episode had no business being animated this well. And the confessions, and the feels... It felt like the climax of a long running, high budget series. What an episode from an underdog anime. Absolute banger!

The drastic change in tone from a silly episode of a dog eating a dead mans junk to such an epic intense battle filled episode with a lot of heart really gives you whiplash. Just like how they had to take what was almost an entirely serious episode and give the old man dog ears for a final joke. Goofy but still, this was a great episode.

Holy shit this episode was amazing and this show is still so criminally underrated, having a measly 80k members and a score of 7.17, not even in the top 10 of new shows this season, but every episode is interesting, exciting, beautifully animated and hilariously funny while also delivering a great story with great characters.

One could argue that the ending to this episode was expected, but it still had me on the edge of my seat and the climax was insanely satisfying. Love this show!

One thing that occurred to me. If the devil's dog got that strong just from eating Grandpa's stuff, can you imagine how the Succubus that Chrom is dating must be now? She must have turned into a Demon King by now! 😁😁

morlock just continues to do the funniest shit, but i thought that whole thing was touching and i wanna know what happens with the pup. really sad about the wolf, seems like he was actually good but man this whole thing was a mess. old man saved the day thanks to saitou and his sacrificing then weilding some sick magic. idk, this story is so goofy but it's ridiculously fun to watch. i feel like maybe morlock is at least right now the anchor in the party.

This is by far the best Isekai I've watched in 2 decades

A sublime amalgamation of emsemble of colorful personalities, morally ambiguous antagonists and ambivalent tension

I was so tense watching the episode, no matter how well they did, things kept getting worse. Until badass grandpa showed up and took care of everything. That was awesome!

The tension, the drama, the emotional moments, a series of intense fights and how good it looks (C2C is doing such a great job). What an episode! It's incredible how well this series handles everything, including of course, how we end the episode with a dog-eared Morlock lmao. I love this show.

Oh my God man, I love this show. This is hands down the surprise of the season for me, I almost didn't watch it, but I am so glad I did. 

All aboard the Raelza x Saitou ship, cause it's sailing hard. We better see the marriage before this season ends. 

I can't believe this all started because Morlock's Maderaka sized schlong got eaten by a Demon Dog. 

C2C put all the budget this episode, Goddamn, Morlock is badass. 

The cherry on top this episode, Morlock is now a furry, can't wait for the next episode.

Amazing episode.
And they've set it up so that by taking custody of the wolf's child, Raelza gets to relive her past with a white wolf like she did as a child.
I love how this episode also ends on a cliffhanger as well - just when you think Morlock is back and better than ever, he reveals those fucking ears lmao.

Nice isekai Anime I've seen this season!!
OP Old-Man fr!!!!!!

Ikr there so many gore like skeleton and burning hand thingy, yes that's pretty cool ig.

The Anime always make a mind-blowing plot twist, sometimes when I thought it's gonna bad ending turn out funny ending.

I'm happy, the MC from another world will get married with the best armed girl!! I hope Saitou also gonna be the useful husband in future >//<!!

Sometimes, I wish that Ninja and that Mahoutsukai also get a happy ending, make that girl get her memory back >//<!!

Ah also, our OP Old-Man got fluffy ears lol. Maybe it's because the effect when he getting his mahou back from the wolf. This is the nicest wolf I met.

That's right, I'm waiting for the next eps, see ya!

The romance aspect of this anime certainly took quite the development and that made the fight all that more emotional. The way each character stood for the others, the scissors coming in clutch, Saitou bonding more with Raelza in the midst of battle and Morlock... growing cat ears? Seems like even with the battle over we still have 2 more episodes to go and the unpredictability of some events is still present.

Let's see how the ride ends.
