It's scary what Freya can do with her powers. And unfortunately for Orario, they were at the mercy of Freya and what she could do.

It seems that she really meant to make Bell by any means necessary. "I must defile you all". Truly crazy but I'm not that not surprised after what she's pulled already when she was "Syr".

Well that was one messed up ending.
Freya is obsessive that much was clear from the start but this just seems like some sick form of torture.
I am wondering what will happen next now, because this type of setting isn't really my thing (The everyone forgot or it never happened kind of setting) it's scary as hell.

Well, I can honestly say a mass brainwashing wasn't something I was expecting after last week. The anime has had darker moments every now and then but this might actually take the top spot... Pretty bad time to be Bell but I'm definitely curious how the season is going to progress. Ever new season has been the better than the previous, I hope they continue that trend.

Freya is going to pay for what she has done. Fate or Life is not gonna let her have her way. Rejection sucks at any age. However, it’s not an excuse to cause trouble such as this. Like goodness gracious. Freya already turned foul the moment she decided to do this. At this moment she is no goddess of love. But a goddess of force.

I believe there is a golden ratio of crazy:hot, and my initial thoughts before this ep was that Freya has a particular kind of crazy that has a charm to it, however evens after watching the ed yet again in its entirety, its more or less fuck the ratio Freya is kinda nuts.

I have a great deal of respect towards simp-sons, calculated simping is a dying art and when done right its absolute class and to die for, on the contrary Freya's infatuation is best left a longing desire, the way in which she manifested her so called love was downright diabolical, aaand I kinda get it, hear me out, the goddess of love taking an L is stomach churningly crushing to her ego and downright unfathomable, drastic measure had to be taken, and herein lies the problem, my sympathy for her holiness ends here, I thought the worst she was gonna do was kidnap the guy, engage in so diddler ish end of story, but nah she had to jump his Familia, black mail Hestia, threaten Hermes, what sorta twisted lick back is that, honestly I did not see her putting everybody in the matrix coming either, shit ion know man I'm conflicted, I think she's fire but she might be a little too crazy for my liking though.

Damn, Freya really isn’t playing around with how badly she wants Bell. Even going as far as mass brainwashing everyone and altering their memories? That’s some scary stuff, especially for Bell himself. Hestia is the only one who was able to withstand it but obviously she has to play along and pretend to not know him. The plot just took an interesting turn.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

I thought this was going to be a 6 month training arc of Bell getting strong enough to beat Otarl and stay in the Hestia familia. Series said LOL NOPE that's what you thought sucka!

I felt Bell's confusion and abandonment in the end, the emotion hit deep today. Was not expecting that

Normally I give JC Staff a hard time for how poorly they've handled this adaptation over the years, but this episode was spot on. Freya's charm used on Orario is something I've been waiting to see. Crazy that without releasing arcanum, she can do something of that magnitude of power.

And seeing the poor members of Hestia Familia being brutally mishandled by those homicidal simps of Freya was tough, even though I knew it was coming.

I really hate how EVERY FEMALE is lusting after poor Bell. The man has done nothing wrong and gets put through hell at the whims of others. Let the dude live his life the way he wants.

Really hoping that goddess gets the karma train that's sure to be coming.

Wow such a good episode!!!

Freya´s character is so warped, she´s willing to throw it all away, willing to set the world in flames to get her most precious desire (Bell) and she´s the meant to be goddes of love for the love of god!! I guess Gojo was right "Love Is The Most Twisted Curse Of All" it´s crazy what love can make you do.

Me personally I don´t see Aiz accepting his feelings, sure she´s helped Bell in the past but has also confronted him too. From what I´ve seen she is interested in him but not romatically at least, since she has a goal to achieve before anyting else. The only way I see both of them ending up together is if her and Bell undergo a crazy character development like he did with Ryu.

My ranking at the moment of who´s more lilkely to end up with Bell is: Ryu, Hestia, Aiz then Haruhime. The only reason Syr isn´t on here is cuz of what Freya said in the last episode and that the way the story is going it looks like someone is either dying or getting sent back to heaven.

The only thing I don´t understand is the power Freya used for hypnotising all of Orario, isn´t that using her Divine powers? Which then violates the rules set on the lower world by the Gods causing her to be sent back to heaven?

I can´t wait for the next episode!!!

I ask this again, will an unfiltered never-seen-before steamy sex scene spanning over an entire episode between Freya and Bell solve things for good??? If yes, then plese go ahead with that easy and simple approach. IT WILL REALLY.. REALLY SAVE MANY LIVES.

As tbh, this whole obsession is pretty weird and isn't at all something to sing praises about. I used to give flak to Hestia but she looks hundred times better now.

Back to back PEAK episodes. Freya really went so far.

Bell was suffering last season and now this? give this little rabbit a god damn break.

It's now up to Hestia and the crew to save Bell this time, can't wait for the big fights, and to see who will be our new allies.

Freya is really crazy, doing all this for a man, after all what does Bell have so much that all the girls want him?

This episode was really crazy and at the same time it had a really sad ending, Hestia avoiding Bell was really painful to watch. I hate the Freya family with all my strength and I also hate Freya/Syr/Horn or whatever that abomination of a character is.

This season hasn't made me like danmachi yet, but it's been much better compared to the first seasons lol

Happy Halloween fellow MAL dwellers, I love celebrating the spooky time but I still gotta hit my anime lol. And wow shit hit the fan really fast, funny to think there were folks afraid this would be more of an SoL season when it started. Freya couldn’t get her man so now she’s changed the entire city around him just to make him hers, she may be sexy af but holy shit what an evil move, and the worst part is that Hestia managed to avoid Freya’s brainwashing but she can’t tell Bell yet, she broke that man in the middle of the street and there’s nothing she can do about it for now, shit hurts man lol.

But despite how things have turned out, and I know it might be this way for a while, this just got me excited for the eventual revenge that Hestia and Bell will unleash on Freya and her familia, I like Freya a lot and she’s made for a great villain for this arc, but I also wanna see her taken down more than few pegs lol, not necessarily the same fate as Ishtar because I will miss seeing Freya around, but I also wouldn’t doubt that it’s the end that’s coming for her.

Readers of the original material: Is after from here the fights begin?


I heard rumors that this season would have a lot of fights, I confess that the direction of the fights has improved this season, so I'm looking forward to seeing more fights.

Hmm, Freya's plan may backfire. I think the only way the Freya familia could be challenged is if most of the other familias banded together against them, and if they can snap out of her brainwashing, she just ensured the would.

Only a few weak familias would probably have tried to oppose her if she just left Orario alone.

Holy moly, Freya isn't one to take "NO" for an answer, huh? Poor Hestia trying to reason with Freya was a complete waste of time as she ordered her lackys to take out Bell and the other members of the Hestia Familia. When it looked like Hermes arriving with a good compromise plan to help Hestia a bit, Freya was already a few steps ahead of him on that one as well.

She's gone as far as to forcibly replace Ishtar, sending her back to Heaven, before hypnotising and altering the memories of EVERYONE in Orario. The exception here was Hestia thanks to what Hermes told her beforehand, but seeing her having to lay low and play along does hurt a bit.

Still, Bell is going through complete torture. Waking up in an unfamiliar place, which was the Freya Familia, then still getting treated like crap from the higher ranking familia members, having the public be afraid of him and then having to learn the hard way of how no one in the Hestia Famila (including Hestia playing along for earlier reasons) recognises him is a severe shock to his system. If he thought dealing with the Juggernaut in the dungeon depths last season was tough, then he has been forcibly been shoved into the bottom pits of hell itself.

Great episode overall and I look forward to seeing how things will unfold from here on out. Right now, Freya is well past the point of no return and only a complete defeat of her would be fitting.

Freya: Look Bell, I love you, so here's the thing: we can do this the easy way, or the hard way, you can decide
Bell: Well we are not doing anything in anyway, so I'm gonna continue to live my life, but good luck to you 😊
