----------------------------------------
The pirate journey begins for Fena, but that does not mean that she's out of danger from the British Empire.

Seems like Yukimura's treatment to Fena isn't an one-off issue, he treats others the same. Their first step: the town of Bar-Baral where Fena gets a change in clothing to fit more of the pirate aesthetic, and others to stock up their supply for the long run. and a feast to top it up with the coolest twins Enju and Angie. Man theso two are comedic relief, but know how to handle Fena well.

The first of many clues about the stone that loks similar to her family heirloom, and a visit from an old nemesis with an outnumbered gang, which has Yukimura instinctively come to the rescue in style. Even I'm suprised by Enju and Angie's prowess, they're men of culture to not slay women. All in all, Production I.G. pulls no punches in the action that's similar to Yuukoku no Moriarty.

The first of many close calls of enemies that start weaving the story as it is: Hannah mentioning that Yukimaru's group are the Goblin Hunters, and more to come.

To get Fena back by hook or by crook, there is no second chance...and this battle has only just begun to crack more of who Fena could actually turn out to be.

Clean swordfight. Though not sure how Yukimaru can just tank a whole blast from that gun, what an anime moment.

Guessing some other rich people out to get Fena for some reason, probably relating to the stone or whatever

The fight scene had really great animation, also Yukimaru is a savage, and the twins seem to have fun even when they are fighting, overall another good episode.

Poor Shitan, getting pulled off by a prostitute that was willing to do it for no money only to get cock blocked. xD The twins and Fena are hysterical. They got a lead on the glass. The fight scene with them, Yukimaru and the other pirates was great. I knew the blonde guy was fishy.

I may need to rewatch the first 2 to see the if there's clues about the world geography, but looks like this follows Pirates of Caribbean geography rules, kinda.

The lady with skull and spider motiff, who I believe but may be wrong is named Charlotte, have a wonderful design.

Damn you England with your colonialism!

And the Brule dose was great.

To elaborate on this, I tried to translate what “Alva Regina” was and it turned out to be “White Queen” so I’m guessing it could be something related to who she could actually turn out to be. Plus the script of the blond fishy guy kind of confirms this…

Man... I'm so into this show. Everything's going so well. The story is really interesting, the characters are so fun to have around. Fena is cute and the cation in today's episode was so damn good. Loved it. I love the twins, they're fun to be with.

Fena looked cute in her Pirate outfit. A very well-animated show. I.G is doing a great job as usual with the animation.

Crunchyroll and Adult Swim really hit the ball out the park with this one. Fena and her crew’s chemistry is great, the mystery of the world is great, action scenes today were great and looks like there’s going to be a lot of twists and turns in the story. Feels like Pirates of the Caribbean in anime form which is awesome.

Really curious about how Abel is related to Fena and what he meant by “do you even know what you are” could be a brother looking for his sister who is heir to the throne or something else, interesting.

P.S red haired big tiddied waifu has piqued my interest.

I'm loving this show, and I'm really starting to feel the urge to spoil myself (wish I could lol). Let me guess, Fena is some royal family member, probably even a heiress or successor, and that handsome blond guy is related to her, maybe even her brother.

Great animation, entertaining characters and character interactions and decent pacing. I am for once going to put my hopes up on a Crunchyroll original.
I sometimes forget to finish my sentences.

That was a clean fight, Yukimaru is super interesting to see whenever he fights. I feel like he has the Slipstream from the game Heat Signature, where he just slows down time and decimates people. The twins speed is also fun, I want to see the other members in action as well.

I can not wait for the next episode.

As some others have pointed out, that Abel guy is maybe Fena's brother. Kinda feels that way. The necklace he was holding in the end is the same one Fena has, plus they share similar physical features.

Ok, I couldn't help but feel that the humor is very childish, and I usually like comedy, but this one doesn't convince me...

First clue, but there were some troubles. Yukimaru should also worry a little more about himself .-.

He's a child or an adult with a child's body, don't know but it looks like he's going to be a problem for our guys 0.0

I liked the action in this episode, Production I.G. can definitely animate their stuff and it showed with the fast paced scenes with the twins and Yukimaru kicking some ass against those female pirates. Rest was boring though, still not adjusting well to the comedy in this series.

Another really great episode! Really loving this a lot, this feels like a passion project. Also loving the characters so much, the exaggerated personalities are great. Fena is definitely a missing princess of some sort, I mean not that it's a secret, princess is literally in the title. But I wonder if Fena or the Goblin Knights knows that. Fena's probably related to the blonde dude.

The action was beautiful as well though damn, well everything about the show is honestly beautiful. The ending scene was really hilarious lmao, death by flinging. Can't wait for the next episode!

Oh this was another great episode and the fight scenes were pretty clean and seamless (can't think of a certain term for it but that's what popped into my head lol). Very interested on how things will unfold in the coming episodes since we're getting some info on Fena's identity. Abel pretty sus.

Looking forward to this every week now.

Hilarious how the hot looking girl didn't receive a scratch. The robust one wasn't as quite lucky, yet still more fortunate than the NPC's.

This was definitely a more enjoyabl than the previous two introduction episodes. The characters are quirky which works well for a fun adventure series and the action is a cut above just serviceable. O'Malley being a baddie is a nice bonus.

Still watching the episode. They mentioned the german city "Idar-Oberstein" which only 90 minutes away from me ... by car. (Changed the name a bit to Libar-Oberstein.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idar-Oberstein

The city is known for gemstones and there is a museum about gemstones. (Visited that on a school trip ages ago if I remember correctly.)

I like where this show is going. With great characters, amazing visuals, and a interesting plot. This could be another sleeper hit for Summer 2021. I also like the fact that Fena and her crew are traveling by submarine since enemy ships don't have sonar yet, Fena's crew can easily sneak past them or launch a surprise attack.

This was a nice change of pace from the previous episode. It's now clear to see what this story is going to be, and I like the direction it is heading. The action continues to be very slick and Yuki Kajiura composed the tracks for this episode rather well. I am glad that some of the female pirates are going to get more screen time later since most of their designs and personalities were pretty memorable. The puzzle continues to grow with each episode and this has a lot of potential to make a very epic story. The humor might need to tone down a little bit later down the road, but so far so good.

A bit of change this episode with a bit of adventure and something more in the realms of pirating. The mystery still delves us deeper and the goofiness holds it in.

Fena is a better Pirate anime then one piece is. It's just so clean and good! I really like the twins a lot. And the introduction of the lady pirates was interesting.

Oh man Lady Red head who clearly was after Fena as a child is sleeping around...hopefully she'll get hers.

Karin on that market was like Kumoko wandering all excited through a labyrinth... God I love Yuuki Aoi. Karin is for sure my favorite character right now.

Action was great, these characters are all incredibly agile and strong. The twins were looking like they were enjoying themselves out there. Heck, one of them was hitting on one of the pirate girls XD No complaints here.

Seems the twins and Fena got some punishment at the end for their rash behaviour by disappearing on that island.

I was gonna do the same thing and look that place up after the episode (you beat me to it though), but I like that they used an actual place/area known for it's gemstones and all that. It's 4-5 hours by car for me. Now I wonder if Fena will actually be from around there or not.

this show is great but I have mix feelings about it.
I expecting this type of story to be more dark and serious, so every moment them goofing around even when facing the enemies kinda makes me cringe. it don suit the story narrative at all for me. I might like it better if they tone it down a bit, or just seclude it for Fena and twins only.

This is the first anime in a long time that I have been watching dubbed and it hasn't made me cringe (watching via Toonami in the US). I gotta say this series is solid and it has a lot of great humor. Also great quote:

"Women with a perfect boob to hip ratio are a gift to the world and must be treasured as such. I cannot kill you." WEAK XD

Wow, I was not expecting the action scenes to be so fluid. Despite having only a couple minutes of action, the animation was really smooth and enjoyable. The pros for this show keep racking up, and this is definitely one of them for me.

Even though I can barely tell them apart as of now, the twins are pretty likable. Both of them have a prankster personality, which I feel is usually the case for twins in media. They seem to be very capable fighters as well, as they held their own against a number of foes.

At this point, I know virtually nothing about Shitan and Makaba, but I'm assuming we'll learn more about them in the near future. And then Karin is apparently the inventor of lighters, which is interesting.

I'm not a huge fan of Yukimaru as of now. I'm not sure why, but I just don't like his attitude. Maybe he'll open up later.

This is my first post for this anime so I'd have to say - the character design is very nice. Apparently the same person who designed the characters for this designed them for Terror in Resonance, which is one of my favorite anime. I can definitely see the resemblance, too. The twins look and act much like one of the characters from Terror in Resonance. I really love this person's character design, and I can't wait to see more of it. Similarly, the animation is breathtaking. Like I mentioned earlier, it's really fluid, bright, and detailed.

Right now I don't have any complaints, so I'm definitely going to keep watching.

Yukimaru gettin all red in the ears from just a slight touch of the hand! Imagine what would happen if she were to kiss him lol.
(Also, Yukimaru probably feels as though he failed + Fena is royalty so he feels inadequate towards her most likely.)

And as for Abel... I have a feeling that Fena and him are going to have a relationship issue similar to Sheeta and Muska from Castle in the Sky (he needs her for something and is perhaps obsessed with his own bloodline?) Either way I'm sure he's evil af.

Ah, I finally remember Abel's VA. It's Toshiyuki Morikawa. Better known as Minato's, Sasaki's VA. O'Malley is just a babe. Seems like the British Empire have control in this year and age. Pretty interesting.

Pirates, Samurai's and what more..
Shitan in the beginning getting hooked by a girl was hilarious.
Buying the stone was just a hunch but it was probably something important.
Attacked by some Lady Pirates, and damn, I'm really satisfied with the action scenes. Fluid and beautiful. One of the twin's kick was just crazy.
Yukimaru entered the fight and took down an insane amount of people in a few seconds. Escaped with Fena but got hit by the shotgun lady. That running scene was quite cool.
Yukimaru gets emberassed and you can see that by looking at his ears LOL.

Abel and Malley having some fun in the end and they got rid of Maxiver. A small blonde royal member is behind all of this. The words he spoke are probably from a book and probably important to the story or to Fena's real identity.

The OST is just epic, as expected from Yuki.
