| Darn kiss teasing. >.< |
| It was good, not amazing, but good. I felt it a little slow, and i really want to see that armor in use... |
Currently watching everything that comes out to avoid missing something good... |

 |
| Haha the jealous Maou so cute :) |
| Poor Maou :(...man she's soooo cute, too bad now this part of the series starts where Maou and Yuusha don't spent as much time together as before, but at the same time it get pretty epic from other points of the story. And the times when they will be together are really good. He should've at least kissed her though :( I kept loling at the Mukashi Onna (old flame #1 and 2) XDXDXD |
 |
Elite60 said: kenshin_sama said: Darn kiss teasing. >.< Yup, but at least it's a start. That is true. Seeing how Maou is really pushing for it, I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen before this season ends. |
| this show is LOADED with awesome Seiyuus. |
| Obligatory kiss on the forehead? Yuusha is a disappointment. :( |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| The last 2 minutes were somewhat entertaining if I have to say something positive about it. |
| I definitely have superpowers. I can feel it in my balls. |
| Lol @ "useless meat" flashback X D When they were describing something in the beginning I was surprised they were making potato chips! It then all made sense when she brought in the potatoes to the convent. This episode was paced nicely with the events that took place and the foreshadowing. Hiroshi Kamiya's character and the Ice General in particular piqued my interest the most. As for the romance between Yuusha and Maou, it's a little frustrating on his part for making his girlfriend feel so insecure but at least he told her outright Female Knight and Mage were just comrades and nothing more. When she tried to kiss him and only got a forehead peck only to leave quick without saying by, I was feeling sad for Maou. Don't worry Maou! He'll come back : ) |
| Man, going to the forehead like was just criminal. Also, wanted to see him in the armor too! Jakemonogatari said: this show is LOADED with awesome Seiyuus. Yeah, lol, no kiddin'. XD |
| I need a big map of this world to see how it all fits together. I get confused with all the territories. Miyuki Sawashiro's voice is a welcome addition to this show. She always makes her characters more memorable than they should be. |

| MAOU! Y U SO MOE?! ლ(ಠ益ಠლ) Also, I loled at Inaban voice |

Seeing how Maou is really pushing for it, I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen before this season ends. I have a feeling for the teasing part of the kiss, they might surprise us with really romantic one ^ I can only hope. Really loving this show. The dialogue, the pacing... probably the strongest of this season (not including sequels... Chihayafuru..etc). Looking forward to next week ^^ |

megucas said: Neat episode + Kamiyan appearance!! Hopefully he has a big role I can't get enough of his voice. ^THIS! |
 She admitted it LOL. |
 |
| I love how the setting of this anime is so fascinated with new technology/crop. The compass and the potato! |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Maou boobs being fondled was my fav part. This episode felt kinda plain but i guess these episode allow for the build up for the more exciting ones |
| So if this will turn out to be harem (I don't think so... but who knows) our dear Hero will be between woman that can bring death and misfortune on him in most painfull way.... and the Demon Queen. Nothing special here but I liked that they are using time to show world better with different fractions ruling it. |
| Sawashiro Miyuki As love rival :3 yay looking forward to seeing him in that armor. |
 |
| This was a decent episode I guess. I get really annoyed with males in anime that seem to be so clueless around females. Naturally, the kiss scene annoyed the hell out of me. I don't know why anime has so much of that BS. Anyways, the economics and politics aspect of this anime is pretty enjoyable, though I have mixed feelings overall so far. |
| Oh that end, I thought he'll get that armor on himself and look beast, but dude just teleported out. Good episode. |
 |
| I get the whole plot thing. essentially wars are started for lack of resources. If Mao and hero can help build infrastructure to better people's lives then the need for war would be lessened. still that aspect of the show is too much. It need more to keep it interesting. Seriously though, the MC running away from the woman thing is getting annoying. It's a mid-evil type story. Stop trying to make warrior period males into soshoku douchebags. |
| What a drag. Score down to 7/10 after this episode. |

Also somewhat annoyed at him keeping Maou at arms length, but I'm just going to assume he's hiding something. Nothing exciting, so I'm sure this irritates the hell out of some people, but I found it interesting. |
 |
| Hmmm, so inside the chest is POTATO. The thing Maou invented is a COMPASS, and the DARK ARMOR looks cool. So far, it's still not that interesting yet, but I enjoyed it. Also, "useless meat" LOL!! |
| Signature |
| Yuusha kissing Maou's forehead was cute :) I also really like how much effort Maou puts into making the world a better place with starvation and war. I wonder how the knight would react if she ever finds out that Maou is...well, the Maou. |
| Gawd damn it Yuusha Y U NO GO ALL OUT ON KISS If it was me I'd be like.... |
Touch me, you filthy casual~ |
| Average episode. Nothing funny or too interesting. This episode would make an Irish man proud, what with all that interesting facts about potatoes. Seriously? Another cross dresser character? This seems to be a fad with this season anime. Ajunky said: Guys, stop putting the bar too high, you're setting yourselves for disappointment. Indeed, I'm pretty meh with this anime so far and I doubt its will get much better. Lets hope I'm wrong but so far its a very below average anime. 3/5 |
 |
| After watching this episode, I suppose I can understand why this was such a hit as a web novel. To be fair, the plot isn't anything sophisticated. You have two people coming together to secure world peace by improving people's livelihood. But the charm of this series (for those who actually like it) really lies with its simplicity. It doesn't try to be ambitious. Some basic nation-building knowledge, some cute romance, some ecchi humor...there's a bit of everything, but no more. I personally have liked this series so far, but like someone else said above, there's no point in having a high expectation for it. This isn't going to be an epic saga, and you probably don't need to think much going through it, but yeah, the simplicity. |
| well yeh, its not a spice and wolf, and one cant help but to think they re similar, but i do think this show is quite enjoyable XD Jakemonogatari said: this show is LOADED with awesome Seiyuus. this winter_mint said: of course =)Haha the jealous Maou so cute :) |
| Being a fan is like having a penis. Its nice to be proud of it But don't pull it out in public and wave it in other's faces Kyurem Black. Kyurem White. Together they are Pretty Kyurem. |
Ajunky said: Guys, stop putting the bar too high, you're setting yourselves for disappointment. I agree. Because of the S&W similarity to this show, i think that's why they've set their expectations high. Oh well, as for me, i enjoyed it. Knowing the secret weapon (potato) was a shock. Maou being cute as always :3 |
 |
Jakemonogatari said: this show is LOADED with awesome Seiyuus. Oh yeah plently of them. One of the reasons why this show is so awesome. This anime is probably the best anime this winter honestly after 3 episodes I can't find anything bad to say about it. |
 |
| I really don't see why people can't draw a line when comparing and instead of pointing out obvious similarities see the differences as well. Maou is only 3 episodes in, for all you know it could do somethings better then S&W when all is said and done, the view that many S&W fanboys hold for this series is gonna blind them even if it does improve and that is disappointing...that simply because a series holds similarities they can't acknowledge the things it does well. |
