Nice to see some of Rose's past.

Fairly decently animated fights.

It's actual German name though. Apparently it's variant of name Ulrich.

It was hard to care about this episode because I knew everyone is going to die...

Snoozefest. Idc since we already know the fate of this unit. They should have done it like Tsukimichi if they really needed a padding episode(s) 🙃

As everyone readies for war, for Rose, this is a moment to sink in of whom the current Rescue Team really is.

Once the Battalion Commander for the Llinger Kingdom, Rose is held to high regard, even to her closest deputy commander of Aul. She's easily the female version of Usato on the comedy side who goes unhinged as she likes. But like the current Rescue Team of misfits, Rose accepted her in, even as she continues her rebellion on her, always wanting to one-up her when she gets the chance. And like always, she fails each and every time.

When shit hits the fan however, Rose and the others encountered the Demon Lord's army. Though this is to ascertain what the demons are here for, it soon turns into conflict as Rose faces the demon commander Nero Argence herself with her superhuman strength and healing magic.

If there is an episode that feels like the show's going at a snail's pace, it's this one. Previous episodes wasn't this dragged out.

Rose backstory eh...

Her personality didn't really change huh... LOL

I was thinking she might have a nicer personality until trauma hits that turns her into a monster leader.

But nope... Rose was already fairly crazy back then...

.

Also, since this is a Flashback, we already know the outcome...

Usato could have some fairly cute Senpais... instead of the crazy group of burly men...

Tho... Rose's group used to be a normal group and not "just healers".

Surprisingly quite touching, pretty good fleshed out backstory on Rose and her old team.

Man, I wish I cared at all about Rose's past. I just don't, and as such this and in all likelihood at least some of next episode were pretty boring. I mean we know all her subordinates die right? So why should I care about heartfelt fireside character development involving no names we never knew before now? As it is I just wish they'd get on with the main story. Ah well. Maybe I'll lower my score for this a bit.

Time for that tragic Rose backstory, seemingly a two-parter too. Is this the battle when Rose loses her team and her eye or does it happen later, when the demons properly invade?

I suspect Rose will kill Nero Argence in the next episode and that's why the demon Amila (the one who leads the current invasion and the construction of that bridge) hates Rose so much. If I had to guess Nero must be Amila's brother.

As for Aul she and Usato are like two peas in a pod aren't they?

I like Aul, is there no hope for my girl? Koko chan's voicing her too.

Battalion commander Rose without her right eye hiding behind bangs, cool. I like her current look more though.

Terrible fucking episode. I just ended up skipping the entire nonsense with Rose's old team.

How many fucking anime do this nonsense? When you are doing a flashback, I don't give a shit how close or friendly your "people who died" were. Unless they are recurring characters, no one gives a shit. The annoying purple haired girl with "ZANY" antics and a team made this a chore to sit through.

In-fact, if they had a competent director, most of this episode would've been wrapped up in 5 mins. Who the fuck makes entire 20 min flashback episode and then adds a cliffhanger tot he flashback when the audience already knows what happened? That's just stupid. There are no surprises waiting for the audience, just a generic battle with a demon till the whole team except Rose, gets wiped out.


No really, I wanna know how many people wanted to know that a purple hair freak would be the successor to a healer, when she's dead already. I don't give a shit about learning about hopes and dreams of generic NPC's who show up for a shitty flashback.

Auls stubbornness is very similar to Usatos. This flashback is cool, mainly because we get another Rose battle!

I wasn't expecting a sudden flashback but I'm okay with it. Ponytail girl is really likeable and reminds me of Usato. It's a shame that she's going to die.

Flashback episode does what every flashback episode does. Doesn't add much context to Rose's character either. At least the battle is cool looking.

Rose is a beast. But, this being a flashback episode, something tells me things won't go well for her squad.
