| The first half of the episode was very enjoyable and creative, never seen an episode about two towns against each other competing for words and sentences on a wall. Also, Drunk Elaina is precious |

| Elaina stepping on grapes? Yes, I want the whole batch. Thank you. Show is pretty consistent so far, but now I'm curious about the source since some of you guys are saying that they're skipping chapters.  |
| I think it's more likely that Nike is Elaina's aunt rather than her mother. The thing with the wall happened 10 years ago. Elaina is 18. That means she was 8 when the witch wrote on the wall. It's not likely that her mother would be traveling around the world while leaving her 8 year old and husband behind. |
GhostCow said: More than 10 years. The old man was saying it more as an estimate rather than exact time frame. Narratively, it's more likely that Nike is the mother, especially since if you go back to ep 1, it makes even more sense how she easily convinced Flan to be Elaina's teacher.The thing with the wall happened 10 years ago. _cenjoo said: It's pretty straightforward. The person in the beginning is Nike, not Elaina. It's a flashback since we literally saw Elaina reading about the origin story with her mother. The girl in the beginning also has different hairstyle. I didn't really understand that whole part in the beginning. |
| "Fetishism is important for business!" Light-hearted fun episode. Drunk Elaina is scary lol |
| This is not your planet to rule. The Fallen shall rise again. |
| Great episode again like usual. I've been really impressed with this series and how they can make relaxing episodes great and dark episodes even better. |
 |
This end of the episode was very funny Elaina was very angry. I realized something that that witch looks a lot like Elaina didn’t explain anything who that witch was anymore I think she.Must appear in the next episodes. |
| I wonder how the hell people reached the higher parts of the wall. |
| . ／l、 ﾞ（ﾟ､ ｡ ７ l、ﾞ ~ヽ じしf_, )ノ |
| At first I was disappointed that they're going straight to vol 3 just like that; but the episode was great. And we got to see 2 different sides of Elaina. Angry Elaina taking out her frustration on the grapes, and of course drunk Elaina lol. Oh and of course Saya is the reason why they tore down the wall XD Funny episode overall. |
| pretty harmless episode nothing special ,first part was totally not a reference to the Berlin Wall nope hurt Elaina's pride with her looks and she'll go psycho mild shock episode pretty much confirmed her mom is a witch |
 |
| "What's important are the feeling, even if it tastes the same; It was important that it was stepped on by Rosemary; THAT'S WHAT FETISHISM IS" XD |
| How old Elaina is now? Can't really trust MAL in all characters ages , from my understanding , the chief of the village ended up marrying that Rosemary and that was their kid , if Elaina started her journey at 18 and that kid is at least 5 years old then she should be like 23 at least ? That if course I'm not wrong in the first half of the comment. |
 |
| Story 1 is DEFINITELY an allusion to post-WW2 Germany no matter how you look at it. The West & East trying to out do each other and soon realize how pointless the Berlin Wall was at the end. The engraving of the wall itself is probably a testament to that as well. Story 2 is more humorous. Firstly drunk Elaina and barefeet Elaina is probably going to be a fetish to some for awhile. The idea that the chief was in love with the rival village girl but twisted to a business rivalry is an ironic twist, ditto the fact the village leader outright married her after. |
The fact that Elaina's mother and Nike are voiced by the same seiyuu (Ito Shizuka) practically confirms they are one and the same. It can be seen in the end credits for Episode 1 and Episode 7. |
| The first half is half-baked and pretty rushed. The second half is where the author remember that he is a degenerate otaku. The least impressive episode by far. |
| I'm too weird to live but much too rare to die. |
| It's more and more difficult to understand its style.Undoubtedly previous episodes are a little dark.However,both these parts are fun and interesting.It's worth watching because we can get stories of different styles.Elaina really takes after her mother. DRUNK ELAINA IS SO CUTE |
 [/url] |
| Another fantastic episode, I loved both stories this week and how they basically had the same theme. Damn, Elaina's mother is definitely Nike though we are still not 100% sure. That moment when Saya's obsession with Elaina united a country, bravo Saya bravo lmao. Yes, inject drunk Elaina into my veins. We need more drunk Elaina. If there is one thing you shouldn't say to Elaina, it's that her looks are average. If you do, she'll curse you to oblivion lmao. I am sure the dark stories will come, I love the variety we are getting. I haven't read the novel, though I heard that there are some really good shit in volume 2 that they skipped, hopefully they are just saving it for later. Since it is pretty easy to rearrange the stories in this show. Either way, I am really looking forward to the next episode. |
 |
| honestly that second part confused me at first because I didn’t realize it was showing a time skip |
 |
| I am really happy to see Saya at the beginning of this episode. So Elaina had been read her mother's journey all this time. There is many Elaina's kawaii moments in this episode. We get to see angry Elaina and drunk Elaina |
| Drunk Elaina? I need more of that. |
| The beginning scared me for a second. I thought we were in for a big time skip. |
 |
| Well, it was a fun episode and nothing much to say. Except it's pretty much confirmed that Elaina's mom is Nike after all. And I do wonder what Elaina will say to Saya if she knows she's the culprit behind instigating the villagers to break down the wall. |
 |
| Gosh, high school anime cliches. I know we have all seen this episode before like in Noucome (UGH!) several guys obsessed with their waifu, if the wall segment was another banal story this segment of the grapes is completely ridiculous we somehow went from a false marketing to beginning he Purge via calling an insecure teenage brat flat-chested. Oh yeah one comment on Elaina's chest is reason to help a bunch of foot fetishists jerks. Definitely author as being stark raving mad. |
| The story kinda confused me a bit with their story telling style, on these episode, and as a result its leaving some questions on my mind. The timeline of these episode, once again, has a little confusion by its jumping story telling style. Well, the kids didn't know Rosemary while she was right in his left! And how Saya could be arrive first? And such. ______ But, to hell with that! Saya and Elaina were obviously pretty adorable on these episode! So i don't mind with that blurry information! Looks how bold Saya released her feeling! And how pointless Elaina's expression never knew the wall memento was Saya's feeling afterall xD. And those second part, tho. God dammit! Elaina madness stomping that grape fruits after being told as a child and thin girl xD. And her drunken scenes too surely a blessing for me, no shit. I couldn't complain much with those old man fetishes. Because it was really a satisfaction! XD. But come on, old man. Why you eveb keep those label as your own! You already had Rosemary, dammit! I am in rage now because of a jealousy! >°< Thats it for me! I don't wanna write much about the story. Elaina expression was just a solid to me without even thinking any difficulties about how different these story style was. Yeah, a different place, but the same theme, and Elaina didn't even need to retold the story from her perspective. Because everyone already start out to retell their memories with the travelling witch, Elaina! |

Teraplan0409 said: Im so fecking confused right now. Are we doing some wacky time travel stuff ? Timeline is broken. Even if that was Elain's mom at the start, it doesn't explain why charcoal witch was there as well. Ashen witch appeared first, after 10 years it was charcoal witch and she mentioned Elaina. After another 10 years REAL Elaina shows up. Timeline of second story is also wild. Or are we doing a time skip ? Or all at once ? Am I the only one that's confused by this ? Either way...interesting way how to tell a story. Excited for the next episode. You got all of that wrong. Nike arrives X years in the past Saya arrives perhaps a few months before Elaina does And that's it. |
Teraplan0409 said: I think that old man said after Elaina showed up that it's been another ten years. But I guess Im just high. He asked Elaina if it has been more than 10 years since she was there. He confused her with Nike. Elaina then tells us that another witch (aka Saya) had arrived a little time before she had. Nike at the wall: More than ten years ago Saya at the wall: A little time before Elaina was at the wall Elaina at the "wall": A little time after Saya was at the wall |
| Elaina must be pretty old if she went to that wall 10 years ago... she's around 30 now, damn. She sure went ham on those grapes. |

| Really liked this episode especially the second part with the grape-throwing. Good episode as usual. |
| So, a new theory rises among us... Is the witch from the beginning, the creator of that book that inspired our girl Elaina, his mother? I would be glad if this is true. Either way, the chapter was good. |
 |
| Honestly, whenever this anime isn’t being unusually edgy, it is just kinda boring. Elainia isn’t an interesting character and the places that she visits are never developed enough to be interesting. But when it does get edgy, it feels out of place in the anime’s tone and Elainia’s character becomes even more inconsistent. All this episode showed me was that I would have rather seen Elainia’s mom’s journeys instead of Elainia’s. She at least has more of a personality. |
UncleJojo said: badabass said: the beginning of the the story took place many years ago, then cut to the several years later with Saya carving on the wall, then Elaina showing up a couple months later.

But where those ten years come from the grape village? Was the anime stated it at the second part? I don't remember that. XD |

UncleJojo said: badabass said: He stated it was “many years ago” in the anime. In the LN, they said in the beginning that the day was the 10th anniversary of the grape throwing festival when the chief was narrating the story of Elaina’s time at his village.Yeah thats a nice clarification. Mostly at the first part i got the idea. But where those ten years come from the grape village? Was the anime stated it at the second part? I don't remember that. XD Yeah. So it was really in the LN, then! Yep its pretty much clearing up my confusion for the timeline problems at these episode. Thanks. I hope peoples read these and can understand too xD. |
