I just want to point out we're halfway through the show and there still no plot. Considering this is Manglobe, I also doubt there will be any resolution, and I guess in the next two episodes something big is going to happen that barely gets dealt with.


Don't worry, bro: Proxy One will appear at the end, there will be a fight with no animation and spaceships will come down to Earth. Then, the last line will be something like "I'm death." It'll be fucking awesome.

I don't even know why I'm watching this anyome. Beyond there being contracts with the devil and a bad guy wearing a black cape (/original), I have no idea what's going on. You wouldn't expect a short series to have one episode focused on a side character buying a dress, as well as showing her daily habits, but TSB did. There isn't even enough story content to fit into 12 episodes... maybe not even six.

The way Demon Swords got thrown around for fun in this episode made Aria seem totally normal, removing any awe factor she had (not that she did). Now she's just an ok at best anime girl that turns into a decent sword. Also, Cecily was once again shown to be totally useless, proving she was wrong to pick a sword over a frying pan.

ok, suddenly we get this intense fighting :/

obviously the three should have fought together against Cecily like in the beginning... Too much pride maybe?

lol at Luke owning everyone. He's obviously beyond all the characters introduced so far...

So...what's the story again?

Well, Cecily impressed me this episode! Holding her own against three enemies, sometimes all at once. And sticking up for Aria was good, too. Hopefully she'll stay this way from now on & won't go back to being whiny and all over Luke.

Now, please to be moving the plot along kthnx.

Sorry Bitchmaster but you should try punching someone like that when you have no fist experience and then we should see your reaction. I think this a good proof besides knights don't really know this unless they practice some it. So Cecily must have had some practice.

No, she was practicing with Aria at one point and there is Hannibal who should have helped but this assuming because it was not shown. Maybe Luke inspired her after episode 4. Much assuming but all is logical that she could punch like that.

Ofcourse, because she shouldn't prioritize on honing her skills with the sword, she should instead punch people when she does infact have a sweet ass sword in her hand. Fantastic.

Anyway, this episode was poor. Charlotte frustrates me, I honestly don't care about her backstory because it's been done to death countless times before. wtf at the introduction of FOUR demon swords in one episode, and why do the wielders suck so much?

Dinner scene was just plain boring and generic, balls dagger was horrible, Luke arrives to the rescue yet again (I swear, he's the only reason I watch this excuse for a show.)

And Cecily sucks, lots.

You are so true right now. Charlotte's stupid, pitiful backstory was so lame and idek, I just found myself groaning at her attempting to explain why she stormed in, attempted to derail's Luke's little life, and acted like a complete brat.

I'd rather just hate her + be done with it and not be force-fed some BLAH BLAH MOMMY DRAMZ shit.

Lol Charlottes futile attempt to fight Luke was stupid. The fight with Cecily was good, they animated quite good, and those three aquaintances of Charlotte are so annoying. The episode was the best one so far, now can they really further the plot. I hope there is a good plot twist to make the show that little bit more interesting!

you didn't get it!! they used the english word but during all the previous eps they used the japanese one. Wich means that it's another word.

Imagine me asking you "I'm looking for an herrero. Do you know one?"
And it's not that you don't know what a blacksmith is.

First this... I loved Luke's expression on his face when they said they will be staying at Cecily's house. Total win...
As for other... WOT. I mean 4 demon swords all of sudden appeared. And the episode starts as they run away from those 3, but how and what happened before is not included. Oh well it was fine just with that Luke's look on his face.

This once again proves that Cecily is completely fucking useless as a swordsman. Even when she was fighting against Doris solo, she got her ass beaten down and barely scraped by with Aria. She had the arrogance to say "If I use this sword, I can't guarantee your life" and look what happened. She barely won against Doris AND she needed Luke to save her again. I'm so glad she got completely pwned by the three girls but I'd preferred if they roughed her up a bit more until she realizes that she really is an incompetent swordsman.

Why is Luke not the main character?

I also found it strange that they suddenly made "demon swords" so... commonplace. They preached on about how demon swords were so powerful and rare and then suddenly, they introduce four new ones traveling in the same group. If they transformed, I hope they're as hot as Aria.


That pretty much covers all my complaints.

I'm done with this show.

Cecily actually fought, and didn't wimp out?
Oh and Aria's transformation's gotten shorter xD
Wait .. Oh never mind, Cecily didn't win xD
But then Luke comes, and being as awesome as he is, he wins. lol xD That's what makes him cool xD
And I lol'd at


Also, concidering that the previous episode was a worthless filler (although with alot of loli), this was a great episode.
Heck I think it was pretty great anyway, even when I'm not comparing to the last one : D

On the minus though, now Aria, being a demon sword, isn't all that spectacular anymore, since they've introduced not one, but 4 more demon swords =.=' Way to spoil some of the greatness of Aria D:

Wth... seriously during the battle, those 3 people (w/e their names are, forgot them already) look like they weren't even serious ... I was thinking they were actually serious about killing her but instead we get some stupid battle where they basically "ALMOST" get owned by Cecily who fails at swordsmanship ... and by the time you get to the end of the episode, their all eating having a great time at a dinner table.

How the heck can you suddenly eat dinner and enjoy it with the people who were trying to kill you just a few hours back?

I honestly think Cecily should give up on waiting for receive her katana since she can use Aria as weapon in battle, but I think she should fight alone without using Aria. Cecily actually had an awesome fight despite there’s three opponents against her. I think she will improve with her skill someday. Charlotte’s plan was indeed interesting, but I wonder why three magic swords haven’t transform into a human.

Are they giving out demon swords as party favors now?

Can I have one? How about my cat?

What are the mayor and captain of the guard smoking? Those 4 just tried to kill, (Yes, kill they were serious) one of the city guards, now you give them room and board with an expense tab....?

All that said, decent episode,

our party now consists of
a thief
a bruiser
a swords woman
whatever you call the girl with the extend-o blade(halberder?)
a love interest with a dark secret (mage?/samurai?)
an elf healer.

Does anyone else smell quest coming? They even come complete with their own dethroned princess.

An okay chapter and somewhat surprised that Cecily could hold her ground against the 3 guards who so happen to also have demon blades (not to mention one of them have a demon blade slayer?), though all three are defeated by Luke in quick time lol. Seems like we have new characters in though, and curious to see where this would lead to. Lol at Luke's random smirk to Cecily though xD.

Yep, I got confused at first. I thought I downloaded a wrong episode. I even checked it to a streaming website just to be sure I was watching the right episode, lol.

Okay so Cecily's fight wasn't that good. Infact, I found it to be rather cheesy. They didn't look like they were fighting seriously at all. This proves that women can't be knights, except for claymores. I was laughing the entire time, lmfao.

Charlotte seems to be an interesting character. She's just like a twin sister of Lisa, lol. Loved how she got scared when Luke was going for her. I wonder how she got those demon swords. Also, this reminded me about the one Luke wanted to kill. He said he needs 100 demon swords to kill someone. Valbanill maybe?

Demon Swords are surely popular among kids these days...

I think I didn't understand that princess part. Her mother is a commoner and was thrown out of the castle. So, if that lil' blondie is not recognized as a princess how can she have bodyguards? And why are they all kids?

Luke, as always, was great. I want him gently packed into a box and delivered to me right away~

Facts' List:
1-Cecille is useless and stupid.
2-Doris is cool.
3-Luke really likes saving the day.
4-Charlotte sucks. More stupid than Cecille.
5-The battles were cool.

I liked the episode, but not too much.

Ah, and the ending is asking to be a shit. We're in the half of the series and a lot of characters just randonly appear. Only six eps left and we're not going to have a true ending, because the amnga isn't even close to be over.
