Hylianticipated said: Or you could say "but knowing how anime SOMETIMES goes,it'll really hit the fan,and all sorts of bad will happen" :)Interesting episode. I wonder if he'll get killed with chain destruction and reborn as a God, that would be cool. But knowing how anime usually goes, it'll all work out in the end and nothing bad will happen. |

Jisrat_Hasan said: phantomfandom said: I'm wondering what happen to the baby, is it possible that the baby is Mash/Elulu? Also, I'm sad that Seiya is not a virgin, even though that happened in previous reincarnation. Also, the B-level world is not what I expected. At first I think it's actually very hard, like SS level, but the demon lord has power to manipulate level information into B to put hero's guard down. But now it's really just B level but Seiya being too careless. Do you mean that scene where that Valkyrie goddess had sex with him? No,think they meant the fact that Tiana was carrying Seiya's child in the world that was lost due to Seiya's recklessness,which would make him "not a virgin". |

RealTheAbsurdist said: Yukikaze_sama said: Oh shit. It was heavily foreshadowed that Aria, Seyia and proabably Rista has some past. But I didn't expect THAT. Huge tone change after everything we saw so far. I don't mind tbh, it's pretty epic. Hopefully we will get some super happy end next week. I mean, it was really obvious? Even Aria's reactions to Seyia starting from early episodes were enough. Then we also had info about mortals becoming gods that had no other clear context to tie it to. And finally Warmaster directly saying that Seyia fights like someone with experience. Wow. Then I'm really dumb. You aren't, some people were just predisposed to suspect this was more than just a comedy, which in this case actually it was. It was like 50%/50% chance the story could have go on a completely different way, for example the Demon Lord and the Generals could have been fake ones. Dumb, might be this guy @xShinigami3125 , for calling the show shit at the end just because he didn't bother to pay attention. |
| Hmm .. I have mixed feelings tbh. This kind of serious melodrama would be compelling in a different series (or this series if there was any premise for it to be introduced naturally and bit earlier than literal second last episode), but the way they handled it actually shaved a score off this series on my list, which given how good it was so far, I had not expected it. I am a bit put off by the whole “tugging of heart strings” plot device and hope this does not continue in next episode to ruin a perfectly good series finale. |

| This anime was just dumb and "parody" comedy, but now it changed tone abruptly and without reason, it seems that the writer wanted to get attention, but as a comedy it would never happen, It is for that reason that he decided to put this plot twist at the last moment, but it just doesn't fit. |
 |
| wow this "Konosuba" have actual plot, logic and dramma AOTY!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111 |
| These feels, wth! I had a feeling Seiya had been summoned before, but as soon as that "video" of the past played and we saw Aria and the girl who had Rista's eyes and voice, I instantly had a feeling like "yep, this was a failed attempt to save the world". Some stuff makes a lot of sense now. Aria seemed very familiar of Seiya from the start but I didn't expect certain parts of that past to be so sad.. :( Poor Aria and Rista having to relive those memories :( No wonder Seiya doesn't want anything to happen to anyone again.. |
 |
| That was a very unexpected serious episode which some strong revelations. This whole funny and entertaining story hid in fact a deeper & darker secret. |
 |
| Really? Some forced ass melodramatic sob story after 10 episodes of mediocre "parody" comedy? Yea, no thanks. The KonoSuba wanna be has pivoted because it has failed to achieve the quality of all the things it's imitating. |
 |
| Kind of lame rendering. As the 3D hexagram was blank, it took more than several minutes to notice what kind of image was displayed when he opened "the property". It was the sentence displayed on the pink background at the end of the episode: "the words engraved on your soul". They should have zoomed in from the overall view of the 3D hexagram. |

| This is so sad, but dont worry. Gonna be okay |
| Wow the episode alone raised the show up by a point for me. Really changes how you look at the story, not sure if I will even be able to find any of the previous jokes funny like I did before this. Regardless tho, I dont think I have ever witnessed something as dark as a father watching his wife and (still in the belly) son be eaten alive in any anime. Wow. |
| this is why I love anime because they always make you learn something... this episode was an emotional and educational one like always.. |
“You can always die. It's living that takes real courage." - Himura Kenshin” . |
| when the demon lord killed the baby that was fucking heartbreaking...... |
| “You can always die. It's living that takes real courage." - Himura Kenshin”. |
| Rista + Seiya = Eternal Love.. they had a baby together , but was killed by demon lord!!!!!!!!!! why tf demon lord look like a frog? |
| “You can always die. It's living that takes real courage." - Himura Kenshin”. |
| Really an emotional episode. Btw when Seiya is summoned and say the command "Property", I thought it work the same as "Status" command. But man, the message behind it made Seiya knew that he failed to save another world before. Its kinda weird looking back at Seiya past, especially hearing his voice .Its more cheerful and lively and not like Seiya that we all know XD |
 |
| w0w! after all those comedy...it suddenly went straight-up to Drama! so Ristarte, Aira & Seiya are already on a different timeline, fallen and reborn as a goddess, same with Seiya as fate would tell banished their memories but still ended-up as fate again would tell... i wonder how would they patch this up on the last b0ss Demon Lord/King... 5/5. |
 |
| The is better than Konosuba at least. |

Children who can’t fathom that someone might simply dislike something they enjoyed are the worst. |
| Goodness. Between reading the comments in here, and the ones in Oresuki, I’m learning that it’s just impossible to please some people. Maybe I’m wrong for watching shows to enjoy them. Lol. I get that being critical is in some people’s veins, I just don’t get continuing a show you dislike, and then nagging about it every week. Although, I admit, I’m on the opposite side of the spectrum, and easily entertained. May be the reason I don’t get it. Lol. Anyway, I thought the episode was great, loved the tone shift. Excited for the finale on Saturday. |

| So it has plot ? just wtf xD |
 |
| Holy shit this suddenly got real lmao. The demon king is different from what I expected lmao. I'm sure the current Seiya can manage somehow. |
 |
| Oh boiiii, that 180 degree tone shift tho lol |
 |
| Ahahaha lol to see those unsastified comment. I know this will be so dramatic since Seiya shout "property" at first episode. I remember, he said this: "of course there is some information that only i know". Honestly, I didn't plan to watch this, but after I watched some strange hints at first episode. It makes me more excited to continue to watch this show. You said this gag show suddenly forcing to melodramatic show? I think wrong. You only didn't realize some hints dude. Contrary to Oresuki, this show have a solid concept since beginning. |
| "This time for sure" man, I had chills that whole second half. I love the tonal shift; the juxtaposition somehow fits the show, that seems to waver from one end of the thematic spectrum to another between episodes. I love it. This show just got pushed a lot higher in my rankings. 9/10 rn. |
  We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths. As death comes to embrace you, you will realise what you are. That's what death is, don't you think? ------------------------------------ Itachi Uchiha |
| God, I knew it was coming but that was still heartbreaking to watch. And Rista is actually his Goddess-reincarnated lover from the failed world? Ouch. I love that they've been teasing this for a while |
| So...Colt was never reincarnated? While Rista and Aria was managed to be saved? |
| First half of the episode is pretty much the usual theme of the anime The second half felt like the last episode of Angel Beats. Massive massive reveal on the characters' background. |
| Did not expect that his backstory was that dark. Now that explains why he keeps exterminating his enemies' corpses after killing them. |
 |
| THEY WERE LOVERS BEFORE?!?!! I'm having mixed emotions... I'm happy that my ship is canon but their back story though <///3 Bingki-san said: Wow, didn't expect that coming. I thought this is just full of "nonsense comedy" . Exactly my reaction also!!!!! I thought that this anime was purely just for laughs ;-; |
| holyyy .. that back story from ristarte so emotional to watch especially when the king demon killed that pregnant girl |
| All that speculation about Ristarte being reincarnated from another life, along with Seiya's treatment, revealed in this episode. Meanwhile, Mash, Elulu and Ristarte all took time off, and immediately turns gaga over outfits, especially lingerie...which Rista goes crazy over it for specific reasons not revealed to the kids. But as soon as Seiya presence isn't felt, the trio gets worried, and Ishtar reveals all. To albeit the souls (which were foreshadowed but speculated), Seiya went ahead of them to defeat the last of the Demon Lords, all the reasoning of his cautious effort but with good intent to keep the trio away from trouble, and so the goddesses' skills to compensate for his mistakes from the life before. Based on past experience, Seiya's "cautious before he was TRULY cautious" actions caught up with his misfires, and previous party members Colt, Princess Tiana, Aria (whom survived) paid the ultimate price in their relentless adventures depending on each other...forcing Ristarte's goddess reborn (or restart) via Aria. Seiya was, and is then on the brink of not wanting to lose more people, and after learning, Mash, Elulu and Ristarte took one final gamble, to which the summoned hero doesn't want to, but he hasn't had any choice. The final showdown is near...and Seiya gonna need all the help he can get now to defeat the final Demon Lord. What a tear-jerking episode...here's hoping that this journey will see its proper end. |
 |
| OH MY GOSH!! was... what I wanted to say for the second half but the execution of that part was really terrible. |
 |
| Caught a lot of Feels Also this explains why Ristarte is so horny when it comes to Seiya. lol |
 |
| For someone who read Violinist of Hameln ( a old manga who hav near like 30 years now...), i knew something was strange ... A lot of "hardcore comedy" have a real path of drama. Look at Plunderer, look at Sora no Otoshimono, look at Violinist of Hameln. A lot of manga/anime do that ... But that don't change a thing : they are my favorite type. |
