Filo is one hungry bird, that almost looked like swallowing a subway's footlong whole!

Ofcourse Filo needs some clothing, cause we can't have her wandering around naked after each transformation (Beware of the lolicons!)

That's pretty dope that they used Petra as an inspiration for this!




Raphtalia dodging that attack was pretty epic and she actually covered her ears on top of her head, I dont know why small things like these brings a smile to my face! The dress for Filo looks really nice, she looks like a proper angel now! Also gotta love Raphtalia's jealous face!

Probably the first episode I've enjoy this show just by the characters alone even though I get the feel this little story should've been 2 episodes instead of 1.

Well, I actually notice that in the last episode, however, with the new one I could relate easily. What you guys think? The behavior of Naofumi and Raphatalia doesn't resemblance a little with Lawrence's and Holo? You know, with that merchant negotiation and stuff...
PS: I also wanted to know about your predictions, manly related with this topic, although, predictions about the whole story is also welcome (pls, no spoilers).


Speaking about predictions accually they already know the whole story. That's why they want comments in specific facts and detail regarding about this episode or next.

Another chill episode, that's good because there is no need for us to suffer xD
Raphtalia is so cute when she blushes, i wonder if when Naofumi looked at her in that cave is because he is finally thinking about the fact that she loves him and maybe he has also feelings for her.
Best girl!

Can't wait already for the episode when Naofumi will realize that Raphtalia loves him.

LOL I bet the spear hero caused the famine then solved it, he or his friend...the b***

Well better than last episode but that wasnt hard. Nsofumi is such a boring anti social MC the other heroes are more interesting. If Naofumi stays this way it's just watching a bland dude doing whatever the fuck other people suggest his ass to do, or obviously more lame villain attacks. Next wave better be lit af boi

Another chill and funny episode, i am always suspecting that something happen that would make me suffer!

Raphtalia is too much cute when she is blushing or pouting, and even more when she feels jealous!

Naofumi please stop think that Raphtalia is your daugther, hope he stop be that blind!

I laught a lot when Filo was singing about kicking lancer hero, was so perfect!

Naofumi getting all bandits's stolen resources was priceless!

Their fight against Nue was really satisfying to watch, their team work was on point!

Filo new outfit suit her well, so much cuteness!

Just like the "Chocobo Race" from previous episode, the quest for the magical gemstone was not part of the WN. They're new contents in the official LN.

Dude I agree the guy learned how to make a living through trade and craft and that's lame as FUCK. Why didn't Naofumi flip the hitchhiking trader guy off and tell him to go piss up a chimney pipe? What is crafting good for anyways? And who the fuck needs functional clothes for my transforming chocobo child laborer lel the tailor can sew DEEZ NUTS if you know what I'm saying. Also, if I'm American and I moved to Europe I wouldn't listen to whatever those LAME ASS locals suggest I do. What do they even know about the local resource hotspots, economy, and job market, right?

Too bad that repeating "this show is romanticizing slavery" doesn't make that claim any more true (if there was any truth to it, at all...) than it was 4 weeks ago...


I mean, it's now been six episodes rather than two in which literally no-one whose opinion we're supposed to respect (that is, someone who isn't an antagonist like Motoyasu or the king) has come forward and said, "Hey, whoa, slavery's not OK". So in that respect it is more true than four weeks ago.

Again just a dead sarcastic reply, let's not forget he has no choice but to fight the waves, if his role in the story is enough for you to be interested in him so be it. You dont think he's bland, I do, and that's it.

Edit: I have to say your replies are fucking cringy. Please stop. Apparently every MC ever who goes through the most basic storylines is impossible to be labeled bland. Also not fucking the females you spend time with makes a person sooo interesting. I mean he's a guy and doesn't want sex with a waifubait raccoon omgggg husband material level9999. You might be triggered and hide behind sarcasm while not realizing you're reaching like a madman

Word choice aside, yeah he should have said "no" when Raphtalia went get get her seal restored. Or at least feel uneasy about it. And then they put a different seal on Filo. Like lets make it a bit more extreme, imagine he had a kill switch. At first he could rationalize that someone's going to have it, might as well be him. But Raphtalia, who's like 10, getting the bomb reactivated, should definitely have gotten a stronger reaction. And yes I know he only has a pain switch, but the point is still the same.

The show takes some willing suspense of moral disbelief.

In the light novel, he tries to tell her that he trusts her and she doesn't need to the seal again, but she insists on it.

1.) Fillo is a beast before a loli. She often won't follow orders so slave seal is to keep her in check because she makes impulsive decisions.

2.) While Raph has it, she can still disobey his orders because it isn't the same setting as the seal she had as a child. So seal will never activate on her.

I'm with you there. The scene where Raphtalia gets her slave seal again is the most questionable in the entire show so far. I'm well aware of why it is in the story... and I think that justification is one of the dumber things I've seen recently in an anime.

What I found most baffling about it is that she would happily go back to the guy that kept her chained up in a cage, wearing rags, and with no treatment for her illness. And that's ignoring the small detail that he trafficks in people.

Even if this show doesn't "condone slavery" it sure hasn't done much to condemn it either.

Also I am surprised that there are people who think he would be into romance after what he went through in episode 1, don't misunderstand business with good will his hatred for this world hasn't decreased even a bit not yet.
Also he is one of the densest MC but not dumb or cliche since he does understand other girls feelings but ignores them since he don't want to assume anything.

The show is never gonna completely deal with the slavery aspect. Unless the story seriously diverges from the source material it's just for edginess now. Sort of a way to mirror how Naofumi's freedom has been taken from him in being brought to a new world. Later on though it's just a glorified party spell, it's only used as a way to share experience points. The characters pretty much ignore its existence. The writer may as well have also created a family or party spell in order to share exp after the slave spell looses its plot relevance. If it were up to me, from the jump I would have written in a similar relationship as shown in Noragami, just to show some reciprocation.

What the hell? Raphtalia isn't even a tsundere, she's pretty straight forward with herself and her feelings but Naofumi is dense as a black hole so he never catches up.

Raphtalia is daughter-zoned hard anyway.

Word choice aside, yeah he should have said "no" when Raphtalia went get get her seal restored. Or at least feel uneasy about it. And then they put a different seal on Filo. Like lets make it a bit more extreme, imagine he had a kill switch. At first he could rationalize that someone's going to have it, might as well be him. But Raphtalia, who's like 10, getting the bomb reactivated, should definitely have gotten a stronger reaction. And yes I know he only has a pain switch, but the point is still the same.

The show takes some willing suspense of moral disbelief.

I'm with you there. The scene where Raphtalia gets her slave seal again is the most questionable in the entire show so far. I'm well aware of why it is in the story... and I think that justification is one of the dumber things I've seen recently in an anime.

What I found most baffling about it is that she would happily go back to the guy that kept her chained up in a cage, wearing rags, and with no treatment for her illness. And that's ignoring the small detail that he trafficks in people.

Even if this show doesn't "condone slavery" it sure hasn't done much to condemn it either.




I hope this suffices in your want for condemnation of slavery.
