MugenNoShirayuki said: yuiichi9 said: I have watched season 1 and the 2 episodes of season 2 and this what I think. Haven't read the novel. The main character is stupid and a coward(facepalm). Returning Van when he doesn't have to. If the empire attack the country where the MC is, it will be seen as the enemy of humankind. Just because the empire is part of a treaty, doesn't mean they can do whatever they please and don't suffer any consequence. If the empire attacks begin a war where civilians could be involved is a bad move in this situation. After all in a war where military action is taken there is always the risk of civilians getting involved and if the MC is intelligent then I am one of the most intelligent and wise person to have ever exist. By returning Van the MC is being a push over, doormat and yes men who won't stand his ground when it matters. Well why would you expect him to be competent when he's been shown to have basically zero actual high level ability and all his problems have been easy fix-its? 1) Because he is shown to be an almost genius throughout the series, only making small mistakes. But then again that is from the perspective of the people in the new world. 2) If this show actually advances to more than 'basic' planning, tactics and political talks then it would lose all of its casual readers that are in it for the waifus like me UwU. |

He's not really shown to be an almost genius. It just happens to be that everyone else is a fool, and most of the problems he has to fix have very easy solutions that anyone with a bit of education from our world could come up with. Maybe the series is trying to reflect a medieval world where over 90% of the population cannot read or write? I'm not sure how that explains the stupidity of the nobility, the inventions of battleships or the clothes that I presume are not artificially dyed. Honestly I think this series is flawed as a concept. Trying to apply real world politics into a fantasy magic world is never going to go well unless you really understand what sort of world you are trying to create and expand upon. To that end I think it is better to treat this show as a nice harem series as everyone praises Souma for doing mental google search answers rather than a political show. So yeah I think I agree with you then. |

| Sometimes he has some clever ideas, but damn, it's so annoying with all the stupid isekai dwellers not knowing basic shit or missing obvious things. At times it feels like he arrived at stone age and is teaching primates how a wheel works. |
| A lot of talk in this episode though the whole negotiating was interesting. Especially the part about the demons got my interest. Jeanne wanting Souma for the empire and even proposing him to marry her sister, the Empress, was funny. Amusing reactions from Liscia and Aisha. |
 |
| Too much talking this episode, did find a few of the topics interesting thou. Also lol she wants Souma to marry her sister and become the emperor, another harem member? |
 |
| Despite it being more geared to diplomatic negotiations, it is very mundane and them arguing over a city that's flourishing after its childish dictator lost for it is hilarious. That dictator would've been better suited as a character that MC recruits for a hidden talent since he does that with all the females in his harem lol, amass a large army and conquer instead of collecting waifu. |
| It's a long a episode long negotiations but it didn't find it boring but entertaining like story about Jean and Aliscia being childhood friends, the demons and monsters, and Jeanne's propsoal to give Souma to the Empire to be the saint's husband. Its interesting that the Demon Lord's name rattled Souma's head...or could be he's just tired after a whole day of negotiations. Love the ED btw. |
| Liscia: ur not taking him away from me ME: AraAraAra :D omaxim0 said: Is it just me or Souma really asked the maid to assist Julius in s3xual matters? as i got it no, but she took it that way (ofc we both mite be wrong) :D also that talk was last EP where the maid was called |

| First time we see Souma getting so worked up but I would too with this nonsensical way of race distinction. Also funny to see Liscia getting worked up on not wanting to give Souma away. |
 |
| The discussion continues and I am loving it, I don't know how but this show manages to make negotiations interesting. I'm excited to see how this alliance comes together. |
 |
| Loved the thoughtful dialogue and negotiations here. It was funny how they said they'll start the territory discussions, but then completely went off topic talking about the Demon Lord's history and culture, until finally at midnight they start discussing the city of Van. Very nice worldbuilding going on. |
| Weeeeeeell.. I think there is some possibility of a future.. Where maybe Souma would unite all lands.. Both empire and kingdom.. And would be able to marry all the girls.. Both princess of kingdom, and empress of Empire.. Especially as polygamy is totally accepted in this society.. I mean, countries uniting was a thing in history.. It even could be done right now by them.. But also no idea, how empire elite would look at that, really.. Probably Souma would have to deal with another rebellion.. As well as possible outside coalition.. As well as demons, who are attacking already.. Liscia invited Souma to sleep in her bed this night?.. |
| what if the past failed hero summoning didn't fail and the summoned hero landed somewhere else and cause he was alone in strange land ended up becoming the demon lord, u know discovered some power some way to immortality when it comes to aging |
| I mean it's understandable why Souma would think that way with Demons and Beastmen and Dragonnewts. Coming from a different world altogether. It was wise of him not to record that part of the conversation. |
| Solid episode. Enjoying it. |
 |
| What are the chances this Debalroy is also someone that's been isekaid there lol |
 |
| Its a bit weird that they clearly have magic for long distance communication, we see them using it, but they also act like its unheard of at other times. Same with no diplomatic envoys, they literally had a international treaty but no standing diplomatic officers? Stuff like these are way this show is very mediocre. Jeannes cute design coupled with her full plate armour stirs something within me. Also, she REALLY wants to get her sister a boyfriend, this is the second time she proposed this :D |
