In a way, I believe the Black Knight has some degree of respect and at least curiousity in Usato. He only agreed on his conditions after being captured.

Rose is still intimidating as always. Meh, idk how to feel about this episode. It focused on different characters but the main story feels loose. Usato is also back to training again. This just felt weird for a penultimate episode.

The war's over, and things are slowly getting back to normal. Thank goodness.

In preparation for the next battle, the Kingdom of Llinger decides to interrogate the captured Black Knight. As a condition for cooperating with the interrogation, the Black Knight requests to meet with Usato. His request granted, Usato arrives at the cell where the Black Knight is held captive. There, Usato notices the injuries that no one else had noticed on the Black Knight. Usato, recognizing the Black Knight as an enemy, casts healing magic on him. Healed by Usato's magic, the Black Knight starts to feel some certain emotions.

Usato totally deserved that punch from Rose this time. Why was he dancing before giving a speech? LOL. And I didn't expect Black Knight to be disloyal. Demons, right? Can't trust them ever. At least they explained why healing magic works so well against Black Knight. Screw the demon lord for making someone as cute as Black Knight fight for him. Poor Usato is the only one going through Rose's insane training. But hey, it made him strong enough to beat Black Knight. Maybe he can take down the demon lord too if he gets even stronger. And now Black Knight's joining in on the crazy training... lol. Hopefully, she gets back at the demon lord.

And meeting that fox lady again, the one who saved his comrades' lives... it's only right that Usato heals her mom.

Usato's role within the war is pivotal to the knights's success, and that is especially towards the Black Knight whom they have captured thanks to him. Her wanting to see him as part of her demands to cooperate, aside from Suzune being a literate joker, it seems as though she's genuinely asking for help. And Usato given the clearance to heal her, she's really hurt and needs warmth like Usato's healing magic.

Out from the prison, and back into training...as Rose personally conducts Usato's training, and lest he wants to insult her further, the training's only going to get harder from here on out. His only companion is the Black Knight, and whatever Suzune says in video game terms, people like Princess Celia should stay away from her. And Kazuki was about to dig his own grave from Celia, though she certainly caught that detail lols. But salvaging the Black Knight is easier said than done for Rose to turn her back to the path of good, and as per normal, she subjects her to her training instead to become an upright demon. The journey to deliver missives: Kazuki, Suzune and Usato, it's just natural that the king trusts the trio.

Usato encountering the same fox who gave him trouble the other time, she wants him to pay it back by healing her mother...are things going to get complicated again?

I just realized that Blurin was not at the battlefront. It just eat and sleep at home. I feel like it should be more fun if Blurin is at the battlefront, but it can't do anything other than being cute so that would serve no purpose, and it'd be very dangerous too.

Usato’s developing a little harem lol. Now he got the black knight as well as all the girls in town. Suzune better make a move before it’s too late. 😂

New best girl dropped. Black knight is so damn cute. Suzune got some real competition.

Of course she ends up being a scared little girl under all that magical armour. She and Usato developing chemistry over the course of the episode was fun. She’s such a tsundere and I can’t wait to see how she’ll get along with Rose as a member of the healing corps. It’s nice that the king is such a forgiving and kind soul to give her an opportunity to change.

The contrast between Kazuki and the princess training and Rose and Usato is so jarring, I don’t blame Usato for being jealous lol. Too bad Kazuki had to run his mouth and spill the beans about almost dying. The princess never gonna let him out the castle again lol.

So Kazuki, Usato and Inukami are gonna set off on a journey next.. that’ll be really fun. I’d love a second season of this to see how that plays out. The energy with those three is going to be awesome.

First up, finale next week. Wonder what’s wrong with Fox girl’s mom? I am so gonna miss this when it ends 😭

An interesting episode.. Black Knight being the new errand girl of Rescue Team? Would be interesting to see how she deals with predicament in war against her own kind. Usato and the Hero's to journey to other nations for alliance support against Demon King Army.. Well if these are hints at a second season, would very well welcome it.

PS: Every time I see Kazuki and Suzune listed as "Main" in Characters panel of MAL webpage.. and Blurin as "supporting".. ehhh..

Usato got a new heroine lol. I think she's gonna be fun. That crying scene was beautiful, good for her. Suzune senpai though, never change. Blurin got fat, time to to exercise boy. Also Usato sure became popular, even with the ladies as random girls are appearing to just meet him.

I find it funny that for an episode with a title about the Black Night's identity that...we didn't actually learn her identity. We already knew what she looked like. Given Rose saw her this week though I'm guessing my theory about her being a character from that long and unnecessary flashback was wrong. After all, one would think Rose would have killed her on the spot if she were the young demon girl who saved the demon who killed all of Rose's loved subordinates.

That aside fox girls' mom needs saving? Sounds like a decent way to end the season next week. Hope they bring whatsherface along since she's already right there anyway and obviously wants the MC badly.

I'm glad that this isn't the last episode but at the same time, saddened, as the last episode next week is the last... 😖😖😖

Black Knight is so pretty, if only she doesn't have those weird horns, I'd say she's a beauty, but since that's the author's taste, I can't say I like it as well.
Btw, the camera's perspective for her is rather, cute but lewd. 😳
Suzune has a rival now for Usato. This is a love triangle! Suzune x Usato x Black Knight...! 🥲

Kazuki's secret got revealed to the princess, the glare was awesome. Did I see a hidden side to the princess?
Princess: Suzune said you raised a flag earlier.
Usato: ...

Suzune was on attack at a later time... she's on the offensive... well played, dear main heroine.

At the end of this episode, we got to see our fluffy character...

P.S. I know that it's misleading... 🤣

Gotta catch 'em all?! 🤣

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.

Yeah I think the Black Knight being trained under Rose will be good punishment but hopefully Rose keeps a constant eye on her and that the collar never falls off unless Rose decides to remove it.

With Usato going to different regions to deliver missives plus the fox girl now wanting him to save her mother to repay the "favor" of her showing him a grim future I think this may end up on a cliffhanger or a preparation-type finale.

Wait... How do you have the Rose Flashback episodes and then have Rose say "I know how much Demonkind cares about their comrades" and suggest they'd be "outraged" and "burning with the desire for revenge"?

A perfect example of a show Telling something is true, but not Showing it to be true. In fact, they showed the opposite to be true. they don't care about their comrades and will sacrifice them even in a small skirmish.

Equally, unreasonable, Usati said "huh. what's that?" and the camera zoomed to specify what we were to look at. From my anime experience, every boy Usato's age knows what that is.

"The enemy of going to attack again, so we need to get help. 🤔 Let's send 3 of our best fighters who know NOTHING about this world outside of our country to talk to other countries!" Genius idea. they don't know customs, what's insulting and if you get attacked they won't be there to help you. 🤦🏾‍♂️

Now that Usato is famous he's got a lot of girls simping over him, including Suzune and more recently the Black Knight demoness he healed.

Then he sees his friend training with the light while the Princess is gazing at him adoringly, and considers his horrific training with Rose, it's no wonder he's jealous as heck!

Finally the poor black knight is now going to be trained by Rose, after having her mana sealed away. One can only sympathize.

This anime has been one of the more interesting isekai this season!

I wanted to say this doesnt feel much like a final episode, but then I noticed there is one ep left.

Be Usato. See adorable, OP, tsundere demon girl. Dont leave her alone.
I see what you did there.

I thought Suzune would get jealous or something but nope. She continues to be the by far best character in this show and should be the MC instead.

I wanted to complain about how much I hate the shounen trope of "You nearly killed my allies, lets be friends" but I guess the whole PoW thing is a good explanation.

We FINALLY get to see the fox loli she’s always been in the opening yet we’ve barely seen her so I’m happy the last episode is gonna be dedicated towards her🤩

When Rose kicked tf outta Usato for SIMPLY TRAINING had me dying man bros just keeping up with his health why she gotta do him dirty like that hahaha🤣🤣🤣😭

But fr tho the black knight is caked up like a bakery I need her…PRONTO ASAP IMMEDIATELY!!!!! I CAN FIX HER‼️‼️🧑🏽‍🔧🛠️😇

He certainly did trigger a sort of flag with dis girl lol. "My condolences" was really the only thing Usato can say to the demon girl when she's now roped into Rose's training lmao.

Welp, wonder how the final episode will go now. That fox girl didn't really have a big reaction after being picked up lol.

Huh...

So this didn't become "that genre", guess they didn't torture the Black Knight.

Well... unless you count being "trained" by Rose as torture... LOL

(tho... she's technically a "slave" now, with that "slave collar")

.

... Inukami... "She's a hardcore M"... "I think you just triggered another flag with me"

Inukami is a lot more "otaku-like" than I thought... LOL

Thought she was just somewhat closet-chunni... but she actually knows a lot of otaku-knowledge huh.

.

Usato getting Jelly of Kazuki cause he's training with a cute Princess, while he's training with a... well... green monster.

Also... Kazuki spilled he might had died... so I guess the Princess's going to do "angy segg" as revenge. (TBH, not a bad deal)

.

Usato's gathering a Harem now... hehe

(Tho... TBH, I wouldn't want Rose to be part of my harem.... unless you like getting ( \ ᴗ•́)-● PUNCHED)

In Rose's flashback demon commander explained exactly why he decided to sacrifice his unit to ensure victory, why it's important and why it was heavy decision to make. Also, did you miss the entire part with his subordinate, how he protected her and how much she cared for her commander?
Not to mention they take their sweet time with preparations for war (which is why that unit had to make sure they are undiscovered) and attack with overwhelming force even though they are superior to humans both in magic and physical strength. All of this to preserve lives.

It's safe to assume they did receive proper education as their hero training. It's not like they've been living in that world for a week or two.
Demons won't attack for a while considering how careful they've been all this time since their 1st loss. It will take months or even years to launch another attack.
Sending heroes on this quest is exactly the right choice. Not only it will be opportunity for them to travel the world, learn, strengthen the bond between them but it will also make a lot easier to convince other countries to join. I'm pretty sure that having not one hero but two and a super rare healing magic user will be much more convincing than some random envoy.
But you have a point here. There's potential for "stupid" if they'd send them alone on a trip instead them being a part of larger delegation.

the demon girl sure is pretty, she should show herself more instead of hiding in that ugly armor lol
for the 1st time she suffered some pain, that made her happy i guess, it's a new feeling after all
she goes well with Usato too, so if Suzune ends up with Kazuki, maybe these 2 will end up together

more training with the captain, but that seems like a painful training, crazy
as usual, we see them being treated well at the market, the healer team sure is famous for their good deeds

oh, so they chose to bring the girl out of prison and not kill her, GOOD
that being said, i feel bad for her, knowing Rose will be the one to train her lmao

1 episode left, a mission to deliver important stuff to another country, asking them for help against the demon lord... getting allies is important

lastly, the fox girl is back, i laughed when USato picked her up lmao
seems like she needs a little help with her sick mother, can Usato help her?

the demon girl that saved the guy who killed her subordinates was the chief of the demon team, we saw her with the black knight on the bridge i think, when Rose threw that log and broke the bridge like 2-3 episodes before? i think she had red hair

we also saw a picture of her (it's not really a spoiler tbh but whatever)

And to think that the Black Knight would be a cute girl voiced by Aoi Yuuki <3. She is so damn cute and I like her interactions with Usato. Best girl!

I love how Suzune mentioned that Usato triggered a flag with the Black Knight... and then another one with herself xD.

That close-up of the Black Knight's ass was interesting...

Usato picking up the fox girl out of nowhere was hilarious.

I really thought this was the final episode until it ended the way it did and there was no way. One episode left.
