So Ranta decided to safe someone for ones and it's been pretty much his death sentence.
Well we saw it coming after last week makes me wonder if he will survive or not, it should be interesting to see.

Mary managed to save her friends from there curse and she helped them move on.
I wonder what her other former party member would say.

This series really went from slow to just plain lit as hell and I love it. Can we just take a moment and appreciate how good the insert songs were this week? I mean whatever that rock song was that they used made me get into that much more. Man I wanna read the LNs after this finishes airing because it would be sad to see such a good show just go to waste after this epic progression.
Don't believe the hype.

I said Ranta will save the day and he did. He is still annoying though but I think I can live with that now that what he has done!

Mary hugging her ex-teammates goodbye was really heart warming. Mary is still the most beautiful girl in this season and my second favourite of the season after Megumin.

This, along with Shouwa and KonoSuba have been the standalone anime of the season! Too bad only one episode is left. I hope there is a sequel announced just like KonoSuba.

On another note, a very good anime will always have good finale. When I say that the first thing comes to my mind is Boke Dake, in a bad sense.

That was a pretty awesome episode! Mary fighting her old party felt random but I know it's pretty important so alright. I was expecting these last 2 episodes to be a "defeat the final boss" type thing but it doesn't look it will happen so that surprised me, and I'm liking the character development for Ranta. It'd still be cool if someone died but I think I'll be content with how things wrap up either ways.

That was epic! Ranta was the best in this episode.

Mary looks so cute in the flashback. I wonder if she had feelings for Michiki though.

this series is finishing strong, despite some pacing issue's it's turned out to be a pretty good series. This episode in particular was excellent, great action and exciting fights.

It sucks it's only 12 episodes though.

Well that was intense. Feels like I've been saying this a lot this week lots of great eps XD

First half with Mary's conclusion was really nice. Her dream was sweet. She was too cute and beautiful sleeping at the tree at the start of the ep <3

The fight against Mary's old party was awesome. It was cool how our MCs were learning new stuff. And Mary hugging them to dispel them was sad ;_;

The Kobold attack part was insane. Damn This Kobold King is just Savage lol
Ranta was awesome saving Haru and provoking them like that. And he got a hug from Yume too :P

STILL CAN'T CHOOSE BETWEEN YUME AND MARY ToT Both are so lovable <3

It certainly has plot it's just that it handles it in an unusual way. You have to lock at it in a different light.

Instead of making the general plot of the story clear after the start by showing of main villain x or voicing out MC's wish y we have a plot that develops constantly.

Usually the characters form the basics of the plot and then act according to it. In this show the characters are thrown into the plot the second they got into this world. Now it's them that develop the plot according to their will.

At first it was only simple but brutal surviving because that's what the characters chose to do. Then it was about avenging Manato which also the characters decided. Just recently the plot was to change the hunting grounds and also helping Mary get over her past at the same time. With this episode the plot became to rescue Ranta if he's still alive and get out of there with everyone of them present.

We don't know what the plot is because the characters will form it according to what their goal is and it slowly but steadily becomes bigger and bigger.

So you see it's not that the story has no plot, it's just that develops into something bigger alongside its characters and currently we are still at the beginning.

I feel sooo satisfied at how Mary was handled when she met her dead friends in zombie-form. I expected the cliché
- deluded Mary thinking her friends are alive
- she get attacked when paralyzed by her thought
- Haruhiro save her
but it turned out fine.

Ranta MVP might be the first time he doesn't annoy me (instead Haru criticizing his stupid idea of getting a finishing move was exaggerated)

Nice episode o/

Man, so sad that this anime got only 12 episodes. I think something around 16 would've been perfect, but of course they can't make a random number like that. I was on edge on the second part of this episode, but I felt that the tension was still higher on the LN, which is why is sad that they don't have more episodes to work with. The change of order of events was ok, but I just felt that the fight against Mary's comrades didn't gave the same tension as in the LN where they almost died, and before they could even take a breath Death Spots appeared.
But anyway, still was on the edge of my chair on the chase even knowing that it would happen, so the episode was great haha

Except Yume hugging Ranta, I know what you are trying to do there directors, not cool.

Ranta has pretty much becoming the most exciting thing in the anime for me xD good episode though I really appreciate the pacing in this episode and no like music montage either!!! Though based what I heard heard of from the light novel this is the type of series to have musical montage because its about the daily live of the characters thereès no last boss or demon lord to take down. I talk about it a little more in my youtube channel if youre intrested. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BL6FmxP4DCA

Sucks that it's only one episode left, I wonder if they are gonna squeeze a ton of stuff into it.
And for the last part, I got some serious respect for Ranta, when I first started watching this anime I thought it was gonna be a Survival Game type of anime, but only 1 died. Now there is probably gonna be 2 (haven't read LN yet). 4/5. 3 for Ranta's keeping it fun till the end attitude, 1 for Mary finally meeting her dead friends again.

DON'T FREAKING DIE RANTA, JUST DON'T!!!

that scene was unrealistic. why would the guy with the heaviest equipment take another person with him while jumping. it would have been way more believable to either have her jump by herself and get help afterwards or even hold hands and jump together with Ranta.


i also didn't like that they talked while there was still an undead enemy left.
and since when does a firewall spell cast 4 walls instead of 1?!

other than that i really liked this episode :]

This situation.. I guess it's now or never.

Excellent episode, in fact, one of the best. There were many great moments, Ranta and Haru finally managed to cooperate together and the desperate position they are all in is just nerve-breaking.

Wouldn't expected for Mary to actually meet her fallen undead group members there, that really came to me as surprise. But the most the most touching moment was the last embrace for her comrade she got when casting Dispell... that was just brilliant.

One more episode left and I already know I'll miss those characters. Will be secretely hoping for strong ending and upcoming season 2.

Best episode to date. Even before Ranta's epic save near the end I was liking him. "I need to think of a secret move just for me" xD Haru was dissing him for that but it was jokes. Leave Ranta be. I love him xP

Michiki seemed like such a cool, reliable leader :(

Damn this episode got my hyped! Really really good episode.
Mary got closure
Shihoru realized new things and wants to get stronger.
Moguzo picking her up and taking that shortcut was fantastic as well.
Haruhiro is really perceptive as well, he kept noticing what attacks were being performed and even who in his party used the skills as well.
Yume was awesome in the fight with Marys friends, and even fighting off the Kobalds was awesome as well.
Ranta is the real MVP though.

This episode alone boosted my score from a 7 to an 8.

Ranta made this episode and even then I didn't feel it that much. Gotta say there were some really nice moves during the fights, though.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

Heh not bad, they managed to get Mary back to her senses.

I'm actually also impressed by some of the stealth tactics of the party as well.
Action was neat, different from some of the other episodes. Still thought it was fun to watch and Mary played a nice little role in the fight.


Thought the insert song used during the fight was better than usual for some reason. Got some respect for Ranta this episode too.
anyone know the name of the insert song?

Intense episode, atleast compared to previous ones. I feel that someone from the main characters is going to die next episode, not necessary Ranta. I just hope that they will kill that savage Deadspots... After this episode, I can say that it's either Grimgar or Durarara for my AOTS.
A-1, just don't fuck up the ending, pleaaaaase! Aaaand announce the second season as well =]

Holy shit, perfectly handled.

I failed to consider they could just switch up the scenes, damn, so well handled. I wish they made it come cliffhangery tho. xD

I remember the illustration in the novel made me really hype.



I hope next episode follows the novels more in what happened though, I kinda worried for a sec they were going to cut out a lot of things but they got on track nicely. Considering there's illustration for a certain monster though I don't think I should have to worry, hopefully they handle it as strongly as they handle this and make the novels justice.

Amazing episode, their team work during the battle and their running away were perfect.


Are they following LN perfectly? Since there's only one chapter left and I love this, could you tell me where are you reading it? :)

It's about dam time you finally realized.


Also, that's it? They plan to wrap up this show in one ep? It better not be a horrible let down. I've been screwed over enough already.
