Lol, watching the party shooting goblins in a fantasy world is just wild. I almost laughed because of how silly it looked even though the episode took itself seriously.

Obviously, this episode had military elements but seeing Mitsuha taking on a leadership role made it kinda cool. I think she was practically born for this, to be a leader that is.

That's definitely something you don't see every day in a fantasy world. Kinda absurd episode, but in a good way for sure. Nice action scenes.

Hoping for a good finale.

Gate: Jieitai Kanochi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri
This is what happens when you use modern warfare against an ancient one. I hope they bring some missiles or RPGs for that dragon.

Good thing fireworks murder every goblin while leaving humans relatively unharmed. I figured Mitsuha would realize she could transfer all the goblins to the moon or something,

The monster stampede has Mitsuha worrying if she and the Wolf's Fang captain can come out alive, and all she needs is a bargain...of fireworks to drive the goblins away, and the support of the military group to fend off the Imperial army. Even though it's 61 men vs. 20,000 of the Imperial, the military prowess wlll be more than enough to bring the battle into the fantasy world.

Rather than monsters, it's military vehicles filling the kingdom's backyard, spread far and wide around the Kingdom's walls. The Messenger of Lightning is ready to go, and fire at will bringing unfamiliar things like guns to the battlefield. But man, Mitsuha this time is ruthless for an attack such as this, and her leadership role is for this moment, all learnt from her brother. Land or air, through their "God" that's an automated cannon, all the blood and tears are struck down like it's nothing.

Well, one more obstacle to go: the dragon, and it certainly comes unannounced. Hoping for a decent finale.

I would love to see a Mitsuha and Tanya collab lmao. Did not expect this show to become GATE with Mitsuha leading a modern army in a fantasy world. She’s a terrifying leader actually. Would not wanna go against her. Last ep next week:/

Oh no, it's the war between Mitsuha's army from the Real World (who somehow don't really question this whole ordeal with the other world) and the monster and soldiers PNG army. Who'd win I wonder...

In all seriousness, this has to be among the least animated wars I've watched in anime. The cgi even looked better that some of the static frames. Also, the line between both world has become so flimsy that it puts to shame how the series started with Mitsuha being so cautious.

At any rate, only one episode left to wrap up this weird arc.

Worst episode by far. Cant understand why so many liked it, must not have read the original, they changed so much stuff and made it stupid, censored the violence in the war, changed some lines to be cringe, then this stupid bit with her and the captain teleporting together they made up completely taking away the captains trust for her shown in the original.

It was following along so good why do they change shit so much now in the last few episodes. What were they thinking.

I might be mistaken but I remember reading the novel and there they shoot not like shot the legs or arms like in the novel some soldiers actually got shredded like mince meat it was a total chaos in the battlefield some soldiers got killed by their own tamed monsters too. Some officers and conscripts even fled and become bandits who preyed on innocent people.

I guess in anime format they really can't anger JDF even though they're PMC or mercenaries but casuals viewers will assume they're JDF.

or maybe it's too gory to show. This is why I appreciate it when show runners (Redo of Healer) dont give a f about controversies.

Wow they wussed out and completely undermined the scale and achievement of the battle... and the battle was the best part of the novels. Sadness. It was them against 20,000 troops, not 200 (anime cost cutting?). They were spraying bullets, not shooting arms and legs (lol) here's how it actually went down:

Mitsuha, on the other hand, was just getting started.
“Wanna know why I’m right? Because I said so! Now, feel the wrath of the one true God!” She switched back to her throat mic. “Machine gun one! Ten o’clock to two o’clock, mow them down in five seconds! Fire!”
The order was given, and the execution came soon after.
BA-BA-BA-BA-BA-BA-BA-BA-BANG!
These were loud, thunderous sounds the soldiers had never heard before, and what followed was the complete, brutal destruction of dozens of their brothers-in-arms. Bodies were torn apart, spraying flesh and gore in all directions.
AAAAAAAHHHH!”
Hell truly did exist in this world.

This show should have stuck to her running a shop, and selling modern items to random people, that was far more interesting then this whole political/war stuff that's going on. I have never seen a more boring horde of goblins in my life, lmao.  These last few episodes have been an absolute bore in a series I was actually enjoying a little. It had lots of potential to just be a fun SoL isekai. Man it tanked fast.

Mitsuha has added military strategist and commander to her services. The level of ridiculousness far exceeds expectations.

What soldier of any type turns their back on an enemy soldier that hasn't been tied up to hold a convo?

Guessing the dragon is a surprise final boss to both sides.

So this show actually transitioned from absurd Isekai Comedy to absurd Isekai Heavy Machinery War...
But honsetly, I still love it! Mitsuha is just a great character, capable of carrying both genres with ease. She might be an airhead, but today, she could show of how capable and smart she is, leading her troops to victory. Plus her war princess dress looks phenomenal! 
Oh, and it hasn't lost all comedy, as seeing the leader of the empire witness the downfall of the entire army by a few guns was hillarous! 

I'm looking forward to next week's finale. It seems the next fight is against a very grumpy dragon - I guess he is not even part of the empire, but rather "disturbed" by the machine guns... They'll need even bigger guns for him!

Mitsuha sure knows how to pick them! If I got Isekai'd I'd be in too much awe to fight effectively against fantasy creatures. But the Wolf's Fang group is not me and they have guts! Excellent performance from them this episode. Hopefully they can take down the surprise dragon boss fight

Man, absolutely hated the previous episode and this episode. Why did they have to go this invasion direction? Then some things made no sense, like

Goblins moving at a snail's pace with a static face? And the military guy is shooting them while standing still???? What is this stationary stand off.

Mitsuha in that weird outfit giving an encouragement speech to 60 grown up military men. Imagine you are a military man standing still with utter obedience infront of a little girl in your eyes. Where's the logic? I know she is a client, but wouldnt it make more sense that Mizuha can only communicate with their leader and the leader communicates with his squad as he is the only one they'd listen?

How does Mitsuha teleport the whole squad without touching them? I thought the basic of all teleportation is that you need to touch someone to bring them with you. Makes no sense.

Other things made sense but were terrible. Sorry for the rant, but I really very passionately hate this arc and now anime with passion. This arc totally ruined the story for me, there is no saving it now, unless everyone suddenly forgets everything. 

Now there is a final battle with dragon next episode, knowing from Average girl with average ability anime (same author), the dragon in the next episode would be a complete joke and be utterly obliterated in the lamest way possible, probably a rocket...

I agree with you, there was a certain something about it, but the contrived battle is somewhat of a let down. However, I did enjoy it, they just need to lay on more Brownings some rocket launchers. Just wondering why she doesnt just transport the bad guys into the closest ocean seeing as she can move mercenaries around. 
May the Uguu be with you.

Yeah this episode was pretty silly/ridiculous, I did laugh a bit though such as when the king stared in awe at all of the humvees lined up when Mitusha teleported back to the courtyard. The battle did go as I expected where it was no contest. I'm thinking the dragon will take a shot with an RPG or tank to either bring it down or run away and the kingdom will be saved.

This episode was really cool, I cannot stop thinking about GATE, I loved that anime so this was great for me.

I'm actually sad that there is only 1 episode left 😭 and this kind of series almost never have more than 1 season because they don't sell very well.

Mitsuha dressed like that looks so beautiful I wanna cry, I love her ❤️

To be honest, Mistuha's outfit made her more lovely than ever! She's so adorable and lovely!!! 🥰🥰🥰

I don't know if the subtitles have the wrong translation but I read that those mercenaries are gonna get paid with 40K gold coins... lol
The battle went easy mode with their high-tech equipment vs the medieval fantasy people with monsters. I was really worried and wondered if that 40K gold is a worthy expenditure for an easy mode like that and just when I was thinking of the payment, a dragon appeared. Meh, still not worth 40K gold. lmao

I need more lovely Mitsuha!!! 😍😍😍
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

When I turn off my brain and get a beer, this show is actually quite entertaining. Especially the last two episodes. Like a lot of people mentioned, Gate vibes are strong in this one.
I can bet those merceneries always wanted to be led into battle by a cute anime girl. If I was in there place I know I would. Especially the princess of thunder herself.

If you enjoyed the last two episodes and don't know what Gate is. Well its not a coincidence everyone is mentioning it. Highly recommend checking it out aswell.
