Well, Al has to start somewhere I guess as an adventurer. This is his first experiences as a farmer and adventurer by taking on a quest. It's like one of those JRPG games when a fresh new player begins their journey.

On the other hand, I think Helen is a kind girl. Not sure how much character development she'll get this season but she seems like a nice person to be around with.

Poor, poor Helen. 🥺 She got severe PTSD from that Ouroboros.
It's time for Al and his ballistic vegetable missile to kill that dragon. Even though, it will be a very difficult opponent for him to fight with.

Wayne gets acquainted to the town of Melgis with Ys-Fal a.k.a Filia while her maid Albie acts as the double, she helps him get his foundations right for a start with the oh-so-typical Adventurer's Guild. But with his skills that catch attention from everyone, Wayne would be a great adventurer, but he prefers his farmer life the most.

With the adventurer life, Wayne is slowly drifted away from his dream farmer life...and gets his start of a quest finding some herbs, and almost being abducted by a female orc in heat. Thank God for the adventurer party that he met to save his life, but this Black Dragon that appeared from nowhere...it's the epitome of a nightmare come true, as is the case for Helen's insomnia, which one would assume that's due to overwork.

The Malevolent Dragon Ouroboros as it's called, its presence is left with one of its scales and flooding the entire Forest of Grimm, which Helen has a nightmare of witnessing her brother Rai being killed right in front of her eyes. This is substantiated by her adopted parent Won, which reveals that she is an orphan and doesn't know anything other than her name. Therefore, Wayne sets out to investigate the link between Helen and Ouroboros, and it leads to the destructed village of Honol.

Forget the farmer life, embrace the adventurer life.

Very nice episode again. I like Helen's character. Poor girl has a pretty rough past.

Wow. Ouroboros is a huge dragon.

So Al encounters yet another dragon, although too bad he doesn't have any carrots on him this time around.
And the princess just won't let the MC tend to his precious crops, keeps distracting him with some adventuring bullshit
And it seems he's found the ghost of Helen's brother?
I wonder what's the connection between Helen and that dragon, apart from the dragon apparently having killed her brother

Another decent animation but there were a few frames missing when Helen was moving her arms earlier... but still good enough to watch.

Oh yeah, Helen, another potential partner for the MC... OwO
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

the ghost kid has been waiting for 15 years in the ruins to talk to a farmer, huh..that sucks, especially when his sister probably never visited his grave since she lost her memories. i wonder what's so important that made the kid wait for 15years, guess i'll have to wait for the next episode

Generally I'm not the kind who complain everytime a studio puts bad CGI in an anime especially when its for a miniscule time in the whole series.

This time around situation is a bit different. I've to complain about the horrendous CGI used here.

Not only the studio opted for a bad CGI but they were stupid enough to use that in the opening scenes of first 2 episodes & that too for irrelevant things.

Dragon could've been animated better with consistent regular style used everywhere else & this show isn't grand enough that they require this kind of CGI in second episode.

-1 score for this mess.

At first I'm pretty sure that Helen is the evil dragon, but when I know that there's a good dragon, she might actually be a good dragon that fight that evil dragon.

Another fabulous episode - I did not see a ghost showing up at the end, what a twist, eh?

I thinking this might turn out similar to the dragon in the real-estate series from last season, where the woman at the Guild is actually the black dragon, but doesn't know it yet. The ghost will be key and hopefully the dragon becomes Al's cool farming pal, and they grow fruit for her pies together, happily ever-after.

The CGI made me a little dizzy but whatevs, I love this show.

I'm pretty sure she is. She is losing her memories when the dragon is active and she saw her brother dying through the dragon's eyes.

I legitimately laughed out loud couple of times with this episode. It's so silly. Everyone is yay you are the new genius wow we've been waiting helplessly for you. These stronger people only you could have defeated waited only for you to appear to do anything. Before that they were just idling. Thank god you came. And he's like... yeah am no stronk you are mistaken I only killed dragon with a carrot and rip door handles for fun. Okay occasionally I split a mountain or two but really am no stronk. And everyone goes yaaay we believes you no stronk.

Here's a G rank quest.

Decent episode, funny moments were there and a new problem has arrived which is a lot bigger than the previous one. Let's see how our farmer deals with it.
I give it 4/10.

Always find it funny when they use random cool-sounding names in anime, Ouroboros has nothing to do with that dragon but I guess the author thought it's badass and that's enough. I think he was able to see the ghost because of his robe. The anime strongly suggests that Helen is the dragon, but we'll find out soon. Also it's kinda strange that Al was introduced as someone 30x stronger than heroes, but in the second episode there's a creature that could stomp him easily.

Maan why did they have to leave us on such a cliffhanger? It was a nice episode overall: with the introduction of the dragon that is stronger than anything thus far and Helen's brother as a ghost (so now the farmer MC can also see ghosts, aight aight). There wasn't any farming in this episode, but it's funny how Al is being pressured into being an adventurer even though his passion is farming.

Hmm, that's kinda sad for the guild master and how her brother got killed 15 years ago by that absolutely epic dragon but since she gave the robe to the MC she knows he'll be able to defeat it... also the princess is sure useful for him as well

There was sadly a lack of farming in the fantasy farming show lol, but I did like this episode. I really like Helen, she has a cute design and the plot with her is interesting, it definitely looks like her brother died to Ouroboros (and I finished Resident Evil 5 recently lol) and she forgot about it for some reason and now it’s coming back to her. Ouroboros looks wicked cool too, love that design, looks almost robotic and reminds me of Yugioh lol.

Sadly our boy can’t go back to farming yet, I’m hoping he does at some point and it isn’t all typical fantasy stuff, but I’m still enjoying this for now. Also lol at the female orc bit, I’m guessing Wayne was too shocked to defeat it immediately. And that ED is a good jam but the visuals are a bit boring, maybe we’ll see different waifus in the corner as it goes on tho.

I had hoped that this would be more interesting than the generic isekai/fantasy but it seems it's pretty quickly abandoning the entire farming part. Still, by far not the worst one I've seen.

it's a refreshing approach to the OP character style. the story has plenty of room to grow in different directions. I'm interested to see how his skills develop as he is forced to take on new tasks outside what he normally does.

See! A non-CGI dragon, was that so hard? And a monster that is stronger than our OP protagonist? Shocking. More world building because the main protag is one dimensional and more cute princess moments for eye candy? I wish there were more to this show, like an actual good plot though.

I agree. I don't think people should judge this anime too quickly, unless you know the manga (I guess most people do not tho)
Yes, the MC is bland and the plot is weak, but maybe it will get better...
