Ye the luring felt kinda random in the manga as well. It's like oh shit we need to ge Nanachi back but hold that thought because "village festivities" are happening rn. Well the flashback stuff will be picking up back next episode so I'm super excited for that. Can't rly remember if there's too much for one episode or not but they did already animate a little of it in ep 1.

These past two episodes especially have felt too rushed and slapped together wildly for my tastes. I feel like there isn't enough either build-up or time spent in the aftermath to appreciate any one scene or event. The characters were never the strongest suit, but were/are serviceable, yet them being split apart for the majority of several episodes doesn't even give you those interactions to derive pleasure from.

The first season was a 7/10 for me and so far (in virtual headspace - I don't actually officially physically rate anything until when/if full completion has been seen through) this has been about a 6/10.

For some reason I was expecting Reg to take his arm and reattach it effortlessly in his "whistled" form.
Loved Kaja's transformation! motorcycle grasshopper thing. Too bad he can't leave. He'd be real convenient on their travels.
I hoe they get Nanachi back.

It was cool seeing Riko taking charge and leading the people to beat the monster. Reg's metal turned white which I'm guessing is a power up from the white whistle, looks interesting.

For a good second (or majority of earlier episodes)

I thought Kaja was evil or something... with how SUS he looks and dos...

But apparently he actually SAVED Riko. I guess he wasn't all that SUS... just a bit SUS.

___ ___ ___

And then they get attacked by a giant floating purple jelly thing... Then Riko used her knowledge to set up a trap and defeat it. (sorta)

Tho, Riko's poor hair...

LOL @ the Sage that was at the Restaurant... he's being all "party personality". And he knows about the creature... even tho previously no one knows what the creature is...

___ ___ ___

And now it looks like Vueko is about to reveal the truth about the "Golden City"? (aka the 6th layer/ village)

I still wonder how they're going to get Nanachi back... hope it doesn't end up with Vueko sacrificing herself... like all the previous people Riko meets...

Nanachi's loyalty is admirable.

I love the chemistry this episode and Mitty is easily becoming among one of my favorites in this season with her personality and overall character. I also think this episode did a decent job at its world fiction elements.

The difficult decision Riko had to make was also quite tense.
not that there's an issue at all, did anyone notice Reg's helmet color change and his complexion is darker this episode? just threw me off for a second lol

The focus on the village this season as a singular setting has done wonders in terms of world building, even with how fucked up the village itself is there was a real attachment to seeing it in danger.

Man... that was so scary. Riko helped defeat that thing but when it took Maa... I almost died. I don't want any of them dying. That was about to be very sad.

this episode was simple in the sense of not having too much in quantity, but DAMN, it had in quality, to starters, I loved to see Rikko planning how to take down a monster she never saw before only by observing and comparing it to previous monsters and knowledge she already had, and I love that she gathered an army for her plan, that she used the language, which is something I want more and more in this and later seasons, and lastly, if one of my friends is reading this, I also love her short hair. Not only that but we also got Prushka back, and I wasn't expecting that the artisan jacked off by polishing Prushka, even in stone format, this author sure wants to be classified as a pedo sometimes lol, oh well, that's life; and lastly, MY GOD REG, YOU LOOK SO GOOD IN WHITE, Rikko finally using Prushka to her full potential is something that I wasn't expecting, and damn, that was an amazing scene. Lastly, just some things that I want to comment on, I love Vueko, she's so cute, and I can't wait to be deeply disturbed with her, I love that the solution for Belaf's trade is the embodiment of Value itself, and I hate myself to not think of it sooner, and I can't wait to see what's next after that ending

We see how a while whistle works, interesting that Regu's helmet turns white. There seem to be a lot of things about the place that are still unknown.

Prushka. Prushka. Prushkaaaaa!!! My girl. I cried when she appeared in her human form even though it wasn't real T---T and also I'm so proud of Riko for cutting her hair and making a good plan. Thanks Prushka, Riko, Reg, even Maa and Majikaja too! Now let's hear Vueko's story about Irumyuui (and Reg and Faputa too) ~

Big Fight, confused how and why they had it (how was it of value), Riku's white whistle is finished and has been blown for the first time, the whistle seems to give Reg a brief power up, and we are finally getting back to the story of the suicide squad next episode!

It was good, Riko was very intelligent in preparing the monster "queen's" counterattack, she was eating everyone. great script. Reg turned a different color after the whistle blew, yes, Riko is capable.

After Dark Reg, do we now have Super Saiyan Reg? In the end, Riko decided to sell something, but thankfully, Kaja was there to stop her from doing this foolishness.
All the villagers decided to unite and listen to Riko to stop the monster. It was wonderful to see the villagers in a better light and realize that they are real people. Riko and Reg needed to gain the trust of the village, and this feat helped them do so.
What about Faputa? Are they going to amputate something from her? Will Reg have to surrender her? Although there is probably much more connection between them in the past?
I think in the next episode, it will finally be time for the backstory of the village. I can't wait! Hype! (Also, I've reached the halfway point of the season, I wonder if they will change the location from the village?)
