| Now am I supposed to start liking Ren, this simp muggle? I won't Tate on Yuusha, try next time.. |
 |
| Ren - the typical gamer tryhard who blames everyone else when he fucks up Motoyasu - The gamer pervert who hits on any female character Itsuki - The bitch bow player, nuff said Who the hell picks these heroes? They have so many mental flaws and poor character. Its like they were purposely picked to destroy the world because of how weak they are. We are 3 seasons in and Bitch still using the exact same tactic to manipulate the heroes, how dumb are they? Shame;less tired old trope. Cmon man.... |
 |
| As much as I disliked the last episode I do like this episode. Quite compley in an emtional way, plenty of character development and just the right mix of fierce fighting and comedic relief! What surprises me the most is that I really like this new derp face Mc Motoyasu guy. :D |
 |
| My face hurts from facepalming so hard when Ren realizes he was tricked by Bitch. Also, going to go ahead and say that Motoyasu probably has the Lust Curse series and I don't think I need to elaborate. |
 |
| I'm surprised this wasn't a bad episode. Only thing I would have changed would have been more focus on the action scenes. We got a lot of weird cuts of characters just watching other characters fighting. Like turn the camera around I hear the sword clashing sounds over there. We got Ren's backstory very isekai-ish but still cool to see. Also Motoyatsu was using his brain by luring out the bandits. WTF dude is hella dangerous when he starts using that. I'm pretty sure he was using the lust series with his spear, it was glowing all purple. It would explain his ridiculous strength. |

Every change the studio did in S2 came back to bite them in the ass!
- S2 ended with the three heroes stopping the wave, getting medals for their bravery and saving the kingdom. S3 retconned this and everyone hates the three heroes for not helping.
- The reason only Eclair could save Ren is because they started to have a small relationship/history. Because this got cut from S2 Eclair saving him feels random.
- The group getting curse in S2 didn't happen, but they still have it in S3 and affects their performance seriously.
- The agents of the waves have artificial souls and this allows them to revive. During the fight against Kyo Naoufumi's group discovered this and gained the knowledge to stop him. Because this got cut from S2 the soul thing feels random.
- Naofumi recognizes that Ren is using a Curse Series, but doesn't notice that Motoyasu is using one too.
- When the hooded guys die in episode 5 there's no blood, but there's blood in episode 6.

| @Yaggamy I always appreciate when people like you help us anime only watchers with either minor details that were skipped or like with those actual important plot points I thought Ren was a complete loser but that brief moment before dying showed that deep inside he was a genuine hero and Motoyatsu this episode kicking butt and saving the day for once. |
| Enjoyable battle and it looks like Rens soul might of been saved for now. And hes managed to unlock his powers. |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| Just like with Naofumi way back in season 1, Ren finds out the hard way in how much of a nasty piece of work Bitch can be, tricking him before disappearing with is equipment. Still, this episode did focus on Ren and what he was like back in his world in being a dedicated gamer, although seeing him spring into action to save the schoolgirls from being stabbed was a brave thing of him to do. His current state was making him go completely off the rails with how cursed he was, so stopping him was a must, which Eclair did a good job in defeating him and getting through his head with her words. The two goons from the previous episode appeared again, but Motoyasu didn't hesitated in taking the pair down before Raphtalia finished their spirits off in style. You can easily tell that Motoyasu has the lust curse with how he acts now, especially towards poor Filo, who I can't blame her and Rishia from running away in horror. XD Overall, I was happy with how this episode wrapped up Ren's issues and I hope that he can take that step needed to redeem himself. |
| bro really thinks he's the mc of this anime.. |
 |
| The spear hero Motoyatsu actually did something useful for once, he's really going hard to get his father's approval in Naofumi. It's kinda scary. Poor Ren went through the same BS with bitch that lead Ren to tap into his curse series of Greed and Gluttony. Luckily, Ren was able to snap out of it after fighting with Eclair who has now become his partner. Ren was just a typical gamer with no friends in his previous life and got the typical isekai route by dying trying to save someone. |

| @Yaggamy Damn, thanks for explaining. The soul thing really didn't make sense to me and I thought I skipped something. |
 |
| Wait I’m just thinking, how was Ren able to read the letter? Since the hero’s can only understand the spoken language. In the books it was kind of glossed over. Overall they did a really good job with the adaptation in this one. Really love how much they characterised ren who’s come off as a pretentious asshole since first met him. Yes, he has his flaws, but he’s really a good person at heart. Shoutout to eclair for coming in clutch and breaking the hold the curse series had on him. Motoyasu taking out the bad guys literally had Naofumi and Ralphtalia jaws on the floor lol |

| If Malty's "deceive/seduce + steal + disappear" plan works for a third time with Itsuki. I swear I'm gonna lose it. And no shit! Motoyasu actually did something useful lol. Not to mention he seems to have the Lust Curse... oh, boy. |
| i thought Ren's sin curse would be pride, but guess it was greed & gluttony instead. hmm, maybe the bow hero will be the pride curse. now the heroes are slowly being rounded up, and Ren's found his anchor in Eclair. i think Motoyasu's anchor is Filo, although Filo doesn't appreciate being his anchor lol Why did Rishia run away too from the spear hero? |
       |
| I do like they gave a bit of Ren's backstory and POV. While it does not make his choices much better, it helps give you an idea why he made them. Especially considering these guys are basically teen/young adult weebs living their Isekai dreams. Motoyasu has got to be the weirdest character I've ever seen. He doesn't have a lot of depth to him but holy shit is he diverse. Every time I think I've got his character figured out they give him a new personality lol I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing, but it sure is different. |
Touch me, you filthy casual~ |
| Huh? What's that? The sword hero got betrayed by Bitch? Oh my god, who could have predicted that??? Eclair finally did fkng something lol MOTOYASU IS DOING CRAZY SHIT TO HELP NAOFUMI AND DEFEND HIS LANDS, AT LEAST, REDEMPTION FOR THE SPEAR HERO!!! It's cool that Naofumi isn't the only hero with the Curse Series, but was Motoyasu also using it? His spear was weird. Btw, could you people imagine if this shit had good animation? lmao |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| This episode felt like a speed-run, a bad one. |
| Alright Kirito Calm the f down, we all know you playing Sword Art Online. LMAO my god that bitch did it again. I SWEAR if the Bow Hero itsuki got seduced and trick again by that Bitch, i'm gonna stop watching this Anime. Ngl Eclair saving Ren feels like out of nowhere. feels like something they cut something from previous season and now it feels awkward. |
 |
| There's been a lot of inaccuracies and missed this season so far but it was mostly tolerable so far... But this time around it feels like they cut down, changed up, crammed and stapled together like a quarter or a third of a volume in one episode, also pushing the abilities, story info, levels and power ratios out as a part of it and it hardly makes sense now, see tons of people confused in the comments about what's going on at all, and totally understand why, without reading the novel this all must look completely frigging random |
| @IhnalakoKaina Yes, no, not really. Season 2 changed and cut down far too much and handled it in all the wrong ways, that's after s1 also cut down a bit (it was tolerable though). This here is just them keeping at that trend of omitting and speeding stuff up, except now its caught up to them and there's so much info and story bits missing that it looks shallow, also really random, like the soul stuff that was supposed to be explained like 7~ episodes ago with Kyo. Believe it or not, this here was actually where the novel gets really good, but they botched it so bad in the last season and this one with rushing instead of taking the time to explain and make use of one of the best arcs that its actually painful to watch instead. These 2 guys that came after mc where supposed to be really overpowered due to being overleveled and buffed,, there was also supposed to be much more elaboration about both them and Kyo, the name of their group (wave vanguard), the fact they're just random guys that are 'hero hunting', as in going from world to world to kill heroes for the levels and buffs it grants them, how they are partially immortal (and Kyo too, which last season didn't even bother to mention), how their souls look like middle aged Japanese men, why Raphtalia was able to cut down their souls in the first place... Instead they made them these random stooges that died all too quickly the first time and they didn't show how they're far too strong, Raphtalia was able to kill them only because he removed the curse from her accidentally by using a cleanse to clear her support buff and she surprised one of them with the resulting speed. The fight was supposed to be longer and show how they really struggled against them, also show how Ren is a complete weakling even with the curse applied (it was also supposed to destroy his equipment), to the point Naofumi was able to stop the guiliotine cursed finishing move with his bare hand, meanwhile the anime shows mc struggling. And then when the stooges come back, mc is worried they'll kill Ren because he's such a weakling, but Motoyasu shows up and kills them in a moment like its nothing, showing just how potentially strong the heroes can be, which is supposed to be this huge shock moment , because up to this point the heroes where all shown to be EXTREMELY weak, with Raphtalia able to hold her own against them 1v1 even before getting a clan weapon, and possibly able to kill all 3 alone after she did get it... Their attacks where also way weaker than mc, to the point they called the few of his attacks 'cheats', despite them being pretty weak as far as power levels in the novel go. And now Motoyasu is suddenly way stronger than mc and Raphtalia ever where or could hope to be, at least as far as offensive power goes (mc's role is protecting after all). He's also batshit insane, even more so than Ren, which makes for some great comedy that they completely scoffed here. Lastly there was an explanation about how the cursed series is the holy weapon's defense mechanism, in case the heroes go nuts, so they won't end themselves and instead become obsessed with something. But yeah, as i said, they completely threw out all the info, explanations, and good bits overall, so it came out as pathetic as it did. |
| The first 4 episodes were so good, but now we have to watch those lame heroes being set straight, pathetic. Just watching Naofumi is better. |
| Is Ren just weak or is Eclair actually that strong? He is the sword hero after all. Also lol at Spear guy always saying "father" to Naofumi. |
| "This emotion is mine alone. It is for Madoka alone." - Homura or how I would descripe Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. |
| Ok....Motoyasu's probably ALMOST redeemed himself from all that trash act in the 1st 2 seasons cuz of his whole "OTO-SAN'S ENEMIES MUST ALL DIE" and "OTO-SAN'S WORD IS LAW" act looooool If he's really this brainwashed I mean "obedient" for the rest of the series than this is like a permanently...great ally for Naofumi & co? It was both sad and enlightening to see how Ren was like before he Isekai'd and how he ultimately "died" to have become summoned to this world... Can't believe B* dropped him THAT fast tho--almost record time.... and after taking all his equipment too. Damn low blow. Wonder if they'll go into the others at some point (the OP hints at Motoyasu's I think...? I've been highly curious about it...unless it was revealed in previous seasons and I just forgot...) |

| Damn why filo gotta make a lad feel like shit like dat lolz. |

im curious about the sin curses
naofumi has wrath
ren has greed and glutonny
im guessing motoyatsu gonna get maybe envy and DEFINITELY luxury
the bow hero seems to fit the requirements for pride (Cause he acts all high and mighty) and sloth (cause he hasnt done SH*T since the show began XD)
thats said thats how i view them to fit, doesn't that mean naofumi is kinda loosing? or maybe everyone of them can get their sin version of each curse, still naofumi made it sound a sin could only be in a person at a time. any manga reader to clear it up?

The anime passed the manga around episode 2 so this is LN territory now. Why would Naofumi be loosing? The Curse Series are full of drawbacks and it's not worth using them. The curses only exist to prevent the heroes from committing suicide. Naofumi got wrath because he hated the whole world and everyone in it in S1 and wanted them to suffer/get vengeance. Ren wanted best equipment(greed) and lots of it(gluttony) but forgot the reason for wanting those. Eclair reminded him of his goal. Motoyasu is lusting/envious for love as you've guessed. His curse is that every woman he sees has a pig head(except Filo) and he can't understand what they are saying. He need an interpreter when speaking to a woman. |
Aight!! If you say so!!  |
