Heh, that William guy from Golden Dawn is back. He always gives me a strange feeling when showing up in the show.

In the meantime, seems that Yuno and Asta's rivalry still remains pretty much in tact especially now that everyone is a royal knight.

I usally don't get bothered by drop in quality, but Vanessa looked really horrible xD

Pretty chill episode, tho, it was cool to learn more about Yami's and William's relationship. And there's indeed something weird/unsettling about the latters aura, he seems like the type of guy who just waits for his opportunity to stab you in the back.

Anyways, looking forward to see more of the arguably strongest magic knights(along with Mereoleona)

Tale from Yami's past. Why not. But animation dropped a lot. Battle between Yami and bandits had very poor quality. I hope that there will be improvement in next episodes.

Oh? Didn't expect them to had a rivalry, I thought Yami's rival is Jack.

Can anyone confirm if this was a novel material or anime original backstory?

Asta sure is soul-less after that fight. Nice try by his team mates to cheer him on..

And well we have the beginnings of Captain yami and Captain Vangeance.

Next weeks episode is also about them..

So, Julius, William, and Yami are used to from the same team. Interesting. Seem this trio will play an important role for this arc.

By the way, I wonder what gender Gray is when she's in that giant form.

The real reason Asta is like that is he understand the problems with the animation and wants to lessen the burden on the staff. Truly a heroic MC.

As much as I lust for Yami, his backstory is not so epic that deserve such a good soundtrack. But next episode will continue on this issue so I'm not judging it yet.

I liked how Yami encouraged Asta with that story as expected from a captain, I didn't know he was at the same team with vengeance!

Still think Yami is the best character in this series.

Asta is so downers this episode he looked like a broken plate!
good thing Captain Yami treated them a bath! and Yami shared some of his past and I never knew Yami & Vangeance were on the same Squad Gray Deer (Which is Aqua Deer right now) and of course the Captain on that time was Julius Novachrono! it's expanding!
4/5.

This anime really is only good for it's action. The fighting concludes and we go back to an episode of the awful tropy characters doing their tropes. Why do they even give the characters back story to develop them when they just keep reverting to their tropes?

Such awful characters.

Jack's a rival of Yami's, but not his first one. Much like Asta has a few.

And yes, this episode is 95% filler. The backstory is 100% anime original. Looks like next week will be the same. There is no bath sequence in the original source. It goes directly to the exam results.

I read over here that the animation is not on top. Hm, at least it's not a colorful mess like the Witches' forest arc. But what do I know, my eyes are not trained as yours and my anime backpack is not that heavy xD

I liked the episode, but I miss the humour from ep 30. That was real fun!

This filler ep is honestly so relaxing and so great to watch... We have a bit of comedic sequence witht he Black Bulls, trying to cheer up the empty-souled asta, then Yami came out of nowhere and ordered his squad to had straight for a nice and hot bathtime, lmao.

I'm always up to hearing more of Yami's story, especially when he himself is the one telling his tales.

Asta's face looks so dumb that it looks so dead as well it's hilarious to see his face like that

Yami is in his storytime mode pertaining to his past along with Vangeance again so they had an encounter already in the past

Seems they had a friendly rivalry in the past good to see them befriend each other a nice background to discover a little bit of Yami's past we don't know much about Yami so this is a nice little step to know more about him and Vangeance.


(P.C. His name is really hard to say now Yami's just annoying him lucky for him Vangeance is a cool dude who doesn't get annoyed quite often)
