| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Haha, Pauline has that comical "dark aura" around her. Priceless. A lot of humor again with Melie and the party taking on another quest. Even the fight against those band of thugs was amusing. (thanks to Melie's background commentary) I also find Mavis rather elegant in those men style clothes this episode. Most interestingly is Reina's reaction this episode. Maybe we'll get to see her past this season. |

| now its just a countdown till moe moe kyun takes over that world too |
| Another very good episode, Pauline was so epic with that crook, she is really intelligent. Reina's past seems to be very harsh... that's sad, I wanna see how it will develop. |
 |
| Seeing Melie in a maid outfit doing moe moe routines was really cute and her marking out at the rock monster's transformation was hilarious. She really is a closet otaku. Pauline is best girl because she reminds me of a younger version of Momako from Okaa-san online. It seems Reina has blood on her hands from killing people in her past. |
 |
| Pauline is quite terrifying. Guess we'll learn about Reina's episode in the next episode. She must have had it hard. |

 |
| Some darker elements in this episode, huh? It doesn't seem too bad still, so whatever. Comedy was great as always, tho I didn't get the reference when she said she brought those clothes... |
| I disapointed... Each next episode is worse than previous. Standard gags, standard predictable reactions, stupid "moe-moe-kyun". No personalities at all. This is even worse than last SAO. Looks like drop... |

| Did we really need a random tragic backstory here? are we going full edgy now? I do appreciate the Ultraman references tho. |

| It's getting kind of deep I guess? Maybe incoming episodes will be about all the girls past I wonder if there is going to be some main antagonist? Would be good to have one ngl.. But not these weird kidnappers |

| another very enjoyable episode. I was laughing when Miles was toying with the Kaboom golem. Pauline outsmarted that fatass scumbag merchant. good. Reina so kawaii in the school uniform. Hmm, she has a dark past... maybe it will be explored more later. looking forward to next week!! ^^ |
| Oh just another isekai with cute girls doing cute thi- Have you ever killed anyone? Oof |
| Miles little wish when dressed as a maid though was just adorable. For their first ever quest that sure was a rather close one. So ultra freeze was a technique that Mile learned from Ultraman lol. It was pretty amusing seeing Pauline so effortlessly outsmart the merchant. But the girls abilities and teamwork sure are allowing them to easily take on quests in the guild. While the puddle sure managed to soil their clothes the ones that they donned to replace them sure were cute. The girls defence of the merchants sure was impressive though the bandits sure were pretty well equipped as well. Reina's hatred towards that bandit was pretty unexpected given her usual attitude. Looks like in the past Reina's run in with bandits caused her no small amount of mental trauma. Overall an enjoyable ep as always that showed that even though they are still relatively new their combat ability along with Pauline's unique business sense is allowing them to easily deal with shady merchants while also gradually allowing them to gain both ranks and experience. Im quite curious on what happened in Reina's past though. |

If they want to make the generic moe/kirara/cute type of show, then we don't need it. I mean, I'm not against dark stuff in CGDCT, sometimes it can be done right, but this right here felt kinda cheap and it's probably going to feel really forced. |

| From nice ojiisan to hentai ojiisan lol. Can't blame him tho... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). For this and more, I'm loving Pauline. The last bit about Reina was interesting. |
| Huh this week's episode actually stayed fairly close to the manga, although they greatly toned down a lot of it (no blood with the rock lizard hunting for example). but also lots more references this week including the classic Ultraman, and Takarazuka. |

| Not sure why they needed to stop her from vaporizing someone who has clearly killed plenty of people. Otherwise I enjoyed the episode. |

Hylianticipated said: Not sure why they needed to stop her from vaporizing someone who has clearly killed plenty of people. Otherwise I enjoyed the episode. It makes a lot more sense in the manga tbh. They seem to have realised that going anime original for the first few episodes has complicated matters for when they do return to the source material meaning they've had to shoehorn plot elements that ideally should've happened at different times, sometimes earlier and sometimes later. |

| I love how completely used to "secret family technique" Miles friends are haha. It doesn't even faze them anymore. also jesus those bandits were intense. |
 |
| Very good ep, Pauline's outfit was funny That moe maid in the beginning is what this world needed |
 |
| this is one of the animes i anticipate the most every week, no idea why, i get happy whenever i see the episode is out lol |
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices) |
| So this was the transition episode where we see the girls get a base and start taking quests, so we knew kinda what to expect, but the way they executed it was delightful. The mixture of the girls' reactions and interaction with the neat artwork made for an enjoyable watching experience (the maid cafe part was a cheesy nice touch). I saw some disappointed comments the other week that we haven't had any of the backstory for the girls, when they came to reveal their group name at the end of the tournament fighting (apparently in the manga the back ground story has been more fleshed out at this point). I've got a feeling that we're going to start discovering each girl's history and reason for joining up as a hunter over the course of the show. From what we've just seen unfold in this episode it looks like Reina is first up. |

| MOE MOE KYUUUNNNN ~~~ <3 <3 <3 even if you have no idea what the phrase mean (as shown in this episode), it gives a universal feeling of "Moe" or "Kawaiiness (cuteness)" ___ ___ ___ Also, damn it Pauline... stop being so terrifying, at this rate, you'll take over the world with that shut-eye smile. Plus with that outfit... literally world class dangerous. ___ ___ ___ Also... MC is so strong, she have to use a Slingshot so she doesn't end up killing them, lol And that Golem, ROCKET PUNCH, lol And MC uses Earth Knowledge to destroy all common sense in that world again. |

| Pauline is terrifying when it comes to merching, just scary. They took quite a few lizards down. Them getting dirty from the mud, was kinda funny. To have them wear clean clothes, in this case the outfit of Mile. Perfect fit for Reina but obviously too small for Pauline. It was predictable but I love it, what a sight. Also gotta love the "gentleman" look of Mavis. Seems we're going to enter some dark territories next week. Stating to appreciate the catchy opening more with every episode that gets released. |
 |
| Wow, so up until now it din`t really seemed rushed (even thouht LN readers complained about skipped content) but this episode was a bit too packed. Also, I kinda miss the savage Mile from ep 1. Those internal jokes were awesome and when she`s reduced to what others can see all of the sarcasm is lost. |
| What the heck, sudden twist and looming suffering in my fluff of the week cute CGDCT isekai ? Oh no. |

 |
| Pauline is terrifying her line delivery was great there "you'll regret this decision " but Reina didn't need this backstory nobody needed this backstory for this kind of show |
 |
| I guess the old man can die happy now because of Pauline :-D Reina must have a dark sad past, judging from the glimpses of flashbacks. This series is really becoming meaningful and fun to watch. Keep it up. |

| The old geezer going full Alabama mode after seeing Pauline fucking killed me xD Nice episode though not as entertaining as the previous one. Wasn't expecting the serious twist regarding Reina's character tho. Really curious to see if the series will become a bit darker from now on. I honestly doubt it but let's see. |
| Haha Pauline is scary and Mile is terrified of her. Also wow this suddenly took a dark turn. It seems Reina might have killed people before. |
 |
| not even in 10 seconds I already got a heartburn. I don't know what this anime is doing to me and I'm loving it. the whole episode felt like it ended before it even started lol. Mile is gonna have to be a bit careful now that there are things that could break her shield. she can't be chill anymore and that's despite that she's 6,800 times more powerful than a human. as for Reina's PTSD... I dunno. It might be nice to see her being a villain/antagonist on her arc. and here's a little tidbit from the manga/ln: there's a little "backstory" with regards to the clean clothes. apparently only Mile has a convenient magic to have her clothes and body clean while the other 3 are pretty much desperate for it. and they got a liiiiiitle bit jealous for this. |

I'm telling you that, besides the fact that i'm with you in this aspect of not against dark stuff in this type o show, because of the inconsistency in the tone of the show in contrast with this episode, for having lot of jokes and gags out of place in the middle of the episde until the moment breaks the moment or scene, they could tone down and cut some of the jokes, gags and reference and put some fore shadowing about Reina and add some violent moments during the hunt to make this ep work with the serious part, and also it was cheap and forced too, not only akward. Ah I see, sorry if that caused a slight misunderstanding. |
| "We could make the world better, but it's easier to just shut our eyes." ~Blackwall |
| LOL at the ULTRAMAN reference! suddenly the ambience of the episode went dark with Reina's past sin?? 5/5. |
 |
| That went dark fast... Will we get a senpai's head got chomp-chomp'ed next week? |
 |
| (I'm a novel reader) The rock lizard part was mostly accurate, but really truncated. It's not the most important thing that ever happened so I would have preferred if they just skipped it instead of this. And the second half of this episode...big oof. It's technically based on a story from the novels, but completely dumbed down. Details under the spoiler: This is about the time we're supposed to get Reina's backstory, and yeah, it's pretty tragic, but it also had a bit more build-up to it than "Have you ever killed anyone?" It seems like they're trying to cram in as much detail as they can in the 12 episodes they have. I rarely read light novels or watch their adaptations, so I don't know if this is a common thing, but I really would have preferred if they'd stuck to adapting some more important arcs properly rather than summarizing everything. |
| HAH even in another world, Mile just can't avoid working in a maid cafe (and doing the moemoe action) xDD all in the name to earn money as the Crimson Vow. HAHA rock lizards? More like huge monitor lizards if you ask me. More like an Ultraman reference. But Pauline was terrifying for a moment. Try picking a fight with her and all your profits will sink. The robbery scene...seems downplayed a lot compared to the original source, when it comes to Reina's tragic backstory. Although I'd like to know what's going on, it felt very hamfisted when Reina questioned the girls of whether they've murdered people before. Oh well, guess I'll just refer to either the manga/LN. Florete said: It seems like they're trying to cram in as much detail as they can in the 12 episodes they have. I rarely read light novels or watch their adaptations, so I don't know if this is a common thing, but I really would have preferred if they'd stuck to adapting some more important arcs properly rather than summarizing everything. The director already mentioned that majority of this adaptation will be original, as compared to them having read through the source material and adapting as per how it played out. This is one of those rare instances where the direction taken (at least for this show) is off the charts, though subtle pointers like the novel stories will be shown, albeit like you say, truncated. |

| Enjoyable episode but really dont get this "killing is bad" vibe. Alot of people just deserve to die and that attack was a clear case of argument... Just annihilate all apposition, it's more efficient and better for everyone in the long run. |
I read the manga till the graduation part. and I still hold the opinion that the anime is doing far better if we're comparing apples to apples. I've said it before, but why is our OP MC acting like a helpless damsel in distress? why concern herself with your spoilered tidbit when she can just flatten countries easily if she so wanted? I also hear some people saying the manga/novel goes downhill from here. I hope this anime would save what the novel failed to accomplish at. |
