Hmm interesting, it looks like the show is expanding its world with some island exploration. This was a chance for Helck to make new discoveries.

What a weird green creature that showed up though. Not going to lie, this episode gave me Dragon Quest vibes but was still rather entertaining. It looks like Helck made a new friend too, an unusual one at that.

This time it isn't fights just absolutely "normal" life.
Good variety I say..
But that Helck is really someone else with his strength. He can also build things really fast

I'd have invite Helck to sleep in the house with me, after all it's the house he built, not that I have ulterior motive... I'd feel bad if Helck has to sleep outside.

Azudra isnt taking Vermilio’s disappearance lightly eh?

While Vermilio appreciates nature, Helck has constructed a house, acquired a companion, and even engaged with a sea creature. His feats seem limitless. He fearlessly dove into the ocean, tamed a sea horse-like creature, and effortlessly felled trees by hand. Truly remarkable.

The island hosts an assortment of quirky creatures. The little bird is endearingly cute, a bit of a goofball. The pig-man displays a playful silliness. However, the elderly individual resembling The Dark Wanderer from Diablo exudes a disturbing aura, leaving us curious about what revelations he will offer next week.

Lmao azudra getting scolded for trying to keep Vamirio hair vs asuta getting praised is the embodiment of the flirting vs sexual harassment meme.

Given the map spell places their location way off the continent to an uncharted area and they the fact there’s ruins, I’d imagine that island is part of a long lost civilisation that hasn’t had contact with the mainland in many years. Seems like the locals on the island don’t know about the demons so a long time has probably passed. Just a theory from what we’ve been given anyway.

As usual a lot of hilarious moments today in the episode. Loved Vamirio ignoring Piwi while she was fishing leading to the line snapping, Helck grabbing a literal water deer was great too.

Considering the tone of the series, I’m willing to bet that old resident who showed up at the end will open up next episode with some comic relief and then explain those ruins and just where exactly they are.

Weekly Vamirio appreciation post. She’s so beautiful

A slow-paced and comedy oriented episode this week.
It changes from last week's tension/action and drama.
Really good episode overall.

I like how spectacularly Vermilio fails in guessing any of Helck's next moves every time. That charisma is no joke.

Also for a "stranded on an island" theme, there was no panic to be seen lol, except those Vermilio's monologues with her doing the usual overthinking.

Well, we already know Vermi doesn't really panic at anything from the first couple of episodes, she's one of those "calm thinkers" (unless it involves Helck, lol)

Also, the end of ep 4 already showed Vermi feeling "safe" from Helck's "cape"... LOL

And Vermi gets pulled into Helck's pace, seems like no one can really go against Helck's pace huh... everyone gets sucked in and follow whatever Helck's doing.

.

hehe, Vermi saying "Baka" always makes me laugh, she's so cute.

.

Also... LOL @ the coral-deer-thing Helck went in to catch after Vermi failed at fishing... which also means... there was no real need to fish if Helck could just go in and catch fish, LOL.

BTW, so... we're still technically inside/ near Demon Territory huh... since the locals are still monster-types. Here I thought they were on an actual uninhabited island in the Human World... or maybe they are judging by the "ruins". But the island got abandoned by the Humans a long time ago.

.

Also... while Vermi and Helck's having their island date, the Demon Country is apparently being invaded again by more wing humans... hope they'll be able to hold out til Vermi and Helck makes it back...

I was kinda hoping we'd get more of an explanation of Helck's behavior toward the winged humans. I forgot to factor in that Vermi is too much of a tsundere to actually *ask* sadly.

So this island that Helck and Vermilio are on is definitely mysterious. Vermilio mentioned that she felt nostalgic vibes (or something like that) near the ruins. That got me thinking that there is more to this island as it was connected via a gate below one of the demon's castles, plus we have the winged humans although I'm not sure if they used the gate or not.

Now with a new character being introduced in the next episode, hopefully he's more friend than foe and can explain what is going on. Side note, Vermilio's inner monologue was interesting as she is trying to figure out Helck, and her continued use of the word 'baka' continues to be entertaining and even a bit cute, such a fiery redhead.

Helck!!!!!!

I just watched a video recently about the amazon, and apparently some dude went down it with an expedition and reported settlements with infrastructure became famous but died before finding the entrance to the Amazon river again. But some other dude recently found some dig sites shown to him by an amazonian tribe chief and he found a ton of interlinked settlements. And now using LiDAR they have found remains over taken by forest of an ancient civilization which dwarfed most others in history of that time. Fun fact.

And by ancient I mean like 1.5k years ago

Reminded me of this eps ending :)

Nothing really important happened in the episode although ig it will be important for Vermillio to grow to trust Helck.
Not exactly a bad episode tho, I'm just impatient to learn more about Helck! (No spoilers please)
Vermilio is so patient with those villagers, its almost like she's bipolar.
The fact he absolutely demolished that axe on the first swing and just started using his hands with that intense music cracked me up.
I bet the village elder is a midget.

I don't think that has anything to do with Tsundere lol, Vermi just being cautious, since she still can't determine if Helck really are enemy or ally

A pretty calm episode, showing the building foundations of the relationship between Helck and Vermilion. Helck builds house, Helck chops trees, Helck builds boat. Vermillion is suspicious of him at every moment. That's pretty much what happens.
Hoping for more next week.

ROFL, I hope whoever drew this static shot in this episode got gifted a humanlike mockup model and learn that muscles (even on buffed guys) don't look like that.



And what's the deal with Varmilio's running? Did the animators use Phoebe Buffay as base model for running animation?



What a sh*tshow this whole island arc has been so far, with crap characters that a 5 year old could have drawn with more detail and better imagination LMAO.

First off Vermilia's running was the only low quality animation the whole episode. As for the the static shot of Helck, it looks well done and in line with the rest of the show so I believe you are exaggerating.

Secondly, you begin your post by again solely dunking the shows animation and using that as preface for your meager episode review post. That is convenient.. for a troll.

Is that what you are? If that is the case I wont bother wasting anymore time with you, you have fun with all that.

This episode of Helck was a fun one as usual! Concurrently running gags with the already familiar cast makes this show easy to watch and enjoy. With this episode we're also delightfully introduced to some new characters, notably the green bird who much like the majority of the cast is eccentric and of course goofy! We got some island vistas, nice last minute shots of island ruins, and of course your weekly dose of Helck showing us just how manly he is. The man has no limits to what he can do. Also! Just how long will Vermilia Chan maintain her stance in the face of Helck? She thinks his cape smells nice so I'd wager not much longer! Oof

As someone who enjoys watching Bushcraft videos on Youtube (where they build all kinds of survival shelters), I am already amazed at Helck's "High quality high end house."

If there ever was a guy you'd want to be stuck on a deserted island with, Helck would actually be a good partner to have. Handy at house building, raft * cough * boat building, etc.
