Why can't Komari just get some peace and quiet? I almost feel bad for her but the invasion, alliances, and war declaration sure made the plot/episode more complicated. Hell of an episode. I still think Komari and Villhaze still has some of the best chemistry in the show.
So, it seems that Nelia Cunningham and the Gandesblood family has some relations, most particularly through Komari's mother Yulinne.
Even Karla is aware of Komari's Core Implosion, though Heavenly Paradise picking a fight with the Mulnite Empire against Gerra-Aruka, as one of the 8 Illustrious Generals, Nelia wants to prove that she can take down either one troupe. But for the meeting to be held directly in Komari's room bringing it straight to her bedroom, Nelia poses a proclamation that they will wage war on the alliance, though Komari already assumed to be its leader.
At the fortress city of Faure, the Empress declaring war with an explosion right at the enemy's stronghold, it's complete mayhem. And all that Komari needs to do, is to execute all that's already been set beforehand while the other generals fight protecting her from harm...plus Nelia transporting them to an unknown place to clear up the misunderstanding between the girls when they were young. Now, Nelia wants to get rid of the corruption regarding her kingdom, and requests for Komari's help...that with the agreement, comes the Yuri kiss, Villhaze sure got all jealous lols.
I'm just convinced that Project No. 9 put all their effort into this show, though this will come as something rather late.
For some reason they translated 白極 (hakkyoku lit. "white extreme") as Haku-Goku (goku is another reading of 極). And ズタズタ (zutazuta) means "to pieces; into shreds", so the name was translated as "Butchersky".
14:28 another pun name lol. Reminds me of The Eminence in Shadow.
Daaamn, little Komari was spitting straight facts there.
I'm starting to like Nelia. She wasted no chances on that kiss lmao.
Good episode.
Another psyco appeared and hopefully one that will be taken care of soon, and i also hope that he will take that dictator with him but i guess we will have to wait and see.
Komari not knowing what was going on was funny just like the bed scene.
The war has started now the question is how will it end.
this is really something nelia wants a revolution and few hours later in tearmoon empire mia wants to stop a revolution anyway next episode will be something
Idk if its just me, but im like, why not skip the op and/or ed every ep to have more screentime? i cant tell exactly how much content has been skipped or rushed compared to the source but you can maybe vaguely feel it
so they didnt say it but its implied that nelia used to be the princess before her father got overthrown and replaced.
and curiously we see. is that supposed to be komari's mom? who you know they CONVENIENTLY did not tell us anything
i guess its still possible to die if you're in another nation
that voice sure is familiar though, curious isnt it.
so karla is basically. for now it appears that, she's basically a parallel to komari, where she's in the same position, forced to act like she's really strong but in reality. unlike komari who actually is really strong but doesnt know, karla really is just acting
took me awhile to figure it out, but koharu is kino hina? though i did just check the character list but still.
so its hard to tell but presumably. either nelia's original father/gahmen were either framed, or they too were also kinda like corrupt, and then they got replaced by another corrupt gahmen anyway. not sure though, can they really turn things around in just 4 episodes? thats a pretty short amount of time just to fix one nation
ok this is some next level nonsense.
so the empress just decided that "if komari wont wake up we'll just drag her to the meeting"
in front of another nation too
like i dont even want to think of hte logistics, anime comedy physics
they kinda forgor about it, but, we havent seen one of hte seven lords, and one of htem got killed off too, so there's like..
like i know its comedy but
aaand of course they get attacked in the middle of their meeting. somehow i feel like this has happened before and is going to become a recurring trend
not sure though
i have to say i wasnt expecting such a rapid escalation. there's still two more eps to go
from what they said though if its true, that means two nations vs three, so thats 5 of the 6 nations fighting
i see vill's landmines from ep 2 returns
a few explosions later and SURPRISE nelia.
speaking of teleportation convenient nelia is convenient. and they got karla too. curious though since we saw that the amatsu guy and the other person seem to be in the capital maybe.
compared to what happened last ep, nelia seems quite calm. i guess she knows that she needs komari
it'll be interesting, since komari, nelia and karla are all like pacifists. one of the other nations is also like a pacifist, so that leaves just two nations.
interesting thing is its 5 years ago. so im assuming it was right before the revolution
Unfortunately it seems we wont be seeing any more sakuna unless she shows up next ep. im kinda sad after we spent 4 eps with her and now she gets left behind.
Because they teleported away we also wont see the other two countries unless they show up as well
It's a weird feeling, because the other anime are like on ep 11 or 12 already but we just got ep 10.
Anyway uhm...yeah. Words.
So they didnt address the fact that, there's supposed to be one more lord since the other guy got offed in ep 8. While apparently the mysterious 7th one we havent seen was already on her(?) way to attack the republic capital.
So far the convenient plot weapons haven't really been explained or even shown up very well. But that's for next ep to deal with I guess.
EP 9/10, escalation aside, have been actually a bit different from ep 1/2 or 5/6, though its like less of a comedy due to the srs nature of events.
I did get almost 80 screenshots in two eps though, lots of komari and nelia and karla faces.
The episode just aired, so animelist hasnt updated the voice for komari's mom yet.
They also conveniently didnt talk about it but so far it's implied she was caught up in the revolution and well.
It's kinda risky in a sense.
ADD: Its a bit late, but I just realized. I dont think they ever updated the OP, so sakuna, nelia, and karla dont show up in the OP at all, which is quite uncommon in most anime. Despite not skipping the OP I actually am not sure if the empress shows up either.
Also reminder that komari is so cute. Literally. I mean all the other girls are cute too, and I've kinda got maybe a bit desensitized but komari is clearly carrying the entire anime. Though what can I say.
One thing though, not sure if its true or not but they hinted that the core might have some kind of sekret. But who knows.
One small thing I wanted to add that I thought funny, whether its hidaka rina or project no 9, it seems that hidaka rina tends to get a lot of roles. Though usually its main roles, while here she's barely had any lines I didnt even notice, usually its really easy to notice because her voice is super distinctive
I've been rewatching the first few episodes and. It sure is strange rewatching ep 1/2 after knowing the events.
I've also noticed a few things. Like the secret of the cores, the nations, etc. We actually vaguely see the remaining lord that hasnt shown up yet, but eh.
Also the reporter actually shows up in ep 1, she's the one who wrote the thingy about komari(?)
I only just realized its actually komari's mom in the op. Although its just utterly bizare.
We know she used to be a crimson lord, and presumably komari's dad is like some high position in the army as well. But how big is their army anyway? Komari's unit doesnt seem to be that big, though they're presumably quite elite, and back in ep 7 each lord was "only" allowed to deploy 100 troops (and komari didnt even have that many left)
Also, looking at the OP again, unless im mistaken, the empress herself does not actually show up. The op is just really strange since the first 25 seconds might as well be a still image.
Imagine oversleeping so your work comes to you 😂. Sorry, Komarin, you had your beach episode already. Time to strategise for the upcoming war.
Love how all she had to do was say she wanted to make a pool of blood and that gets everyone going
Don’t need too long to strategise too long since the war is already at Faure’s doorstep. Bold move.
Is that Yuuki Aoi as the white hair sniper waifu? Tanya got isekai’d again??
Giant spinning neck giraffe got me dying man, most random thing ever.
Finally get some flashbacks of Komarin’s mom, sadly we still don’t see her face :/ but it was nice seeing a little of she and Nelia’s relationship.
Speaking of Nelia, was not expecting her to NTR vill right in front of her. “It’s just an Arukan greeting” unexpected Yuri but I’ll take it lol. The Arukan empire has become so corrupt no wonder Nelia wants Komarin help. These last few eps should be really good
had a good laugh when the empress bombed the dictator in Aruka. That's the perfect way to start the fight.
finally, Komari get a kiss. I thought Nelia only kissed her on the cheek, but it looks like there was a kiss on the lips off-screen as well. And Komari liked the kiss. Vill is so mad. xD
Komari being woken up with her bed on the meeting table haha. The flashback with Nelia was nice and even though Nelia supposedly wants world domination it appears that Komari telling her that living in peace can also mean world domination has her reconsidering things. But for now Nelia needs to get her power/authority back from that dictator guy and Komari may end up helping her (maybe Karla too).

Well, it seems She also lost her small sunny spot(Kohinata) in this series.
She has another Future(Miku) if she has her sunshine.
This week's episode was really neat, I enjoyed it.
I have to admit that I would NEVER have guessed they would outright bring Komari's bed and place it on the conference table but that's the treatment of the strongest, I guess.
This got very interesting. We know Mulinite is the strongest nation here so it's interesting to see how the war will go (So long as they don't pull any BS on the enemy side of course)
Great job Vill. Making everyone wait for Komari to wake up so they can make her commander-in-chief made me laugh. Shame that Vill keeps taking L's after L's each episode as more girls join Komari's harem.
Karen's scheme to take out President Madhart was hilariously on point.
Now I'm constantly curious as to what happened with Komari's mom because she looks like an absolute badass.
Super episode. I was most amused when I saw Prohellie Zutazutaski, who resembles Tanya Degurechaff from Youjo Senki like nothing. The first thing I thought was: it's not that fairy tale what she's doing here :)
When I look back at the flashbacks, Nelia's dad seemed like a good guy. It's tough for me to believe he'd be oppressing anyone. I'm leaning towards Madhart being the one behind the coup, making up excuses. He strikes me as the world domination type, maybe stopped by the former king.
Also, can we start a petition to give poor Komari a break and let her get some sleep.
Komari really slept through the entire way while she was being carried lol. So Nelia's the former princess after all. Komari's mother was her teacher. What does she actually want though?
Komari’s subordinates instigated a whole ass war without her knowledge or permission and now she’s gotta deal with it I’m crying and Villhaze bringing Komari ENTIRE bed into the conference is just unhinged bro😭😭🤣🤣
Villhaze getting her girl taken away from her right in front of eyes had me laughing so hard, I was NOT expecting Nelia to kiss her and Villhaze to get NTR’d🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They really brought Komarin to the meeting (in a completely different city) with bed and all while she was sleeping lmao.
Is that Russian Tanya? lmfao
Small Komarin and small Nelia <3. What an adorable pair! Look how damn cute Komarin is, wanting world peace and everyone to be friends since she was a little girl. KOMARIN! KOMARIN! KOMARIN!
Vill's slow motion reaction to Nelia kissing Komarin on the cheek was hilarious xD.
