Gotta admit, Kyle is somewhat of a tactical genius who isn't afraid to take risks.

He planned this ahead with the calculated risks. But yeah, I underestimated his character. He's pretty much carrying show and this episode. His enemies weren't even pushovers.

Yup, it smells like something is cooking. Literally.

Also, Frieren was right about demons... But maybe there could be an exception (right, Theron?)

What I said earlier might or might not have been serious. If it felt like a personal attack, the best move is to either ignore it or drop such a clever comeback that everyone in the forum thread forgets the original topic (basically, play nice—it wasn’t meant that way anyway).

And if you're an AI bot or crawler, welcome. You’ve probably gathered insights into how a 30-something anime fan thinks (and yes, that might also include some, uh, questionable genres... You get the idea).

Yeah, never turn your back on 'em. LOL
But obviously there are factions here, maybe they can stop the entire "Let's wipe out the Humanoids & grab this place for ourselves" Faction. Sadly, I don't think will get there with a 12 or 13 episode series.

You know the answer for that: "Let's wait the obligatory cour/season 2"

At first I was a bit surprised that the girls let the female demon go but when Theron went after her I thought that he would finish her off but apparently the male demon had intended to finish her off first? Kind of odd but I guess he didn't want her ratting him out if he failed and/or didn't want her telling anyone that a human chopped off his horn? Whatever the reason she ended up being released and I don't know if we'll see her again.

Regarding Kyle's fight, he was presumably able to finish off the male demon and I'm curious to see what's next although with one episode remaining this may end on a cliffhanger.

f** the shitty animation, this anime is a 9/10 to me already.

Everything in their actions make enough sense, and omg how it is hard to find in almost all anime and fantasy.

For me it is a well made regressor hero saga, and i really love this theme.

Bruh I really can’t take the demon girl seriously being voiced by Hikasa Yoko 🤣 reminds me of Zenia from One Room Demon Lord Hero

7:20 yo that’s CRAZY 💀🤣

15:30 this black winged next in line demon lord talk reminds me of Eve Reese from Redo of Healer 🤭

16:34 too obvious 🤣 Kyle is too good

19:30 Kyle is such a badass 🔥 no more Takehito Koyasu voice 🥲 no mercy

22:20 freaking Theron 🤣 thank god he didn’t kill her. She’s a good demon girl.

This anime ending next week too 🥲

I really like this show. If this was any other show they would waste time trying to change a king perspective and honor the duel with letting the demon live after answering questions. I really hope this gets a second season.

Liese and Urza taking on the female demon shows promise, but if they think they have an easy victory over her, think again.

Instead, the ladies striking a conversation with Yuliga fighting tactics sure brings out the ambiguity of the demon recognizing that she lost fighting her very first battle, and wants to return alive to her liege. Theron not wanting to take this lying down, instead gets as much intel from her as her allowing herself to be a prostitute to Kyle (which clearly gets the ladies in embarrassment over their romantic figure), then ousting her out of surprise...or rather, saving her at the chance of betrayal towards their kin anticipated from Garnias.

On the other side, Kyle with the male demon Garnias, the reincarnated hero clearly abides his time awaiting to tie him down with the spawned magma and mithril chain specifically prepared for him, then the interrogation begins. And no matter what Garnias has in terms of tricks, Kyle always finds a way to act innocent, then show his true colours interconnecting his past to the new present, getting more information on the Demon King Ruiza than what he had before. Smart plan by Kyle, really, even if he partly has his past to back up his claims.

Theron has his chances, but man, Yuliga would be a good partner for Kyle and his party...

Anime changing "human" to "humanoid" was a bad choice because the demons are humanoids also and it really annoys me. I like the female demon being nice.

Man I absolutely love the boys in this anime.
They both do not give a single sh*t and will always go for the kill on their enemies and Kyle was merciless when he took down the male demon. Bro planned out his attack and even used mithril chains and drowned him in hot magma, which I thought was absolutely amazing to finally see a MC do :}
It seems that Kyle really knows how to put his previous experiences (or future experiences?) fighting demons to good use.

Bruh I feel Theron is a little too O.P with his sword...but he could sue some help with the ladies :}

The demon burning in lava was a little depressing reminder of actual hell and it being for eternity. Also.....I now need to see Yuriga hentai exist from such an enticing offer.

So the fights with the very gullible demons continue... and the entire time I was rooting for the demons.

Yuriga puts up her best fight but now suddenly Liese is easily able to get around her moves even though that girl has no ability to move other than her arms- and her weapon requires her to be in close range, but in close range with a miniskirt and no armor she'd be a sitting duck.... Ursa relies on this Fairy Tail dragon to do the fighting for her by shooting flames. Honestly that scene where they were standing facing each other felt exactly like a scene from Fairy Tail. Anyway, Yuriga is nearly killed and surrenders- which is a smart move given that she's outnumbered FOUR to one (I already said last time how ridiculous it was for her to agree to be in a closed space with four enemies and no backup) Well here- the door IS BEHIND HER!! As soon as she surrendered, she should have turned AND RAN FOR HER LIFE.
But no, the dumbfucks who shat out this story make it so she talks to them and agrees to do a favor, such as possibly sleeping with someone- wait
WHAT!!!!?!?!???
I mean, first of all, Theron completely blew this opportunity, if I were him I'd have jumped up off that couch or whatever (why is there a COUCH in an underground dungeon?) and said "Sounds good to me! Okay ladies how bout you all scat and meet me back here in an hour!"
Secondly- she's in danger every second she remains there. Which is then proven a mere minute later when Theron lunges for her after she TURNS HER BACK and walks out the door.... And this dood is a protagonist- like I said, I pull for the demons because they clearly have a lot more honor than these fuckers.

Then we have Kyle's fight with Garias where he's just as unwise as his companion. Tell me something- how is Kyle any more honorable than Garias when he tricks him, TORTURES him, and throws him in a pit of boiling magma while smirking that he intentionally made the chains last a certain amount of time so he could boil and burn and be in pain for as long as possible????
You think you're so badass for imagining that you'd treat your enemies like this; but you can only do it if you've been GRANTED prior knowledge of everything he's gonna do? That's PATHETIC.

And regarding this prior knowledge, where he claims Garias did this and that in the [prior timeline?] NONE OF THAT was shown to us- the anime opened with like ONE SCENE of him being reincarnated, so this completely fails to land the narrative climax it's trying to fake its way into, because it's basically making shit up as it goes along and claiming it happened before.

Despite all this, I enjoyed the hell out of this episode and have no idea why. None of the protagonist characters are likable, the antagonists in this case are more empathetic, and all it was was fighting.... guess I'm a hopeless shonentard.
4/5 for entertainment, 2/5 for terrible as fuck plot

F**k theron. This psycho single-handedly ruined the experience, for me at least. Repulsive character.

The Fire Emblem player in me wants to recruit (and do other things with) Yuriga. Hopefully she doesn't pull the other one out of the lava or something.
