This episode felt so weird to me, like it was out of place with the show or even... stupid? Not sure why, but it felt like everything was dumbed down just for the sake of there being "conflict" and yes, I get that they are "being played" and all that but it wasn't really set up well. The Rimuru vs Hinata fight was underwhelming and they didn't even bother to show the rest. I don't know if it was the same in the manga/LN or if something was changed but it just felt weird to watch. If I didn't know any better I'd think this was filler.

After endless meetings, apparently nobody has the time to take a minute to confirm why the hell they're actually fighting?

Granted, they're getting played, but Hinata *knows* they're getting played and went ahead anyway? Supposedly she was there to stop her subordinates, but then just ... didn't?

Idkwtf is even going on with this season any more.

Feels kinda wild to finally see the actual fight between Hinata and Rimuru, something that was shown in the first season’s first OP and here it is almost 6 years later lol, I know she fought him before too but still. And the fight was cool, it certainly looked really good, but I was a bit disappointed with the way Rimuru won, being that he learned a broken skill mid battle and Hinata realized she was fucked, it’s a shame too because I was enjoying it. And Hinata’s final attack was quite flashy, I’m kinda happy the voice in Rimuru’s head probably made it sound worse to add some kind of tension there as well, because there has been none up until this. And damn, even after things were settled with no deaths Hinata sacrificed herself to save Rimuru, who I’m pretty sure would have lived that anyway lol, I hope this doesn’t do her in tho because I do really like her.

And Shion thoroughly finessed those two knights on her side of things, not surprising in the slightest but it was kinda amusing how she talked up her cooking and crushed their spirits with a smile on her face. And it looks like the other knights all lost their fights as well, I would have liked to see them but I’m sure it would have just been a beatdown anyway, but what I’m especially interested in is how the lady knight fell for Souei lol. And unfortunately the exciting stuff is already over, and from what I heard there are many meetings to come, I just hope it’s more interesting to watch because imo it was not worth the 6 episodes straight of sitting around a table to get here.

Question - Does Rimuru still have Beelzebub or did he have to sacrifice it to survive? It wasn't quite clear to me.

To survive that attack Raphael sacrificed most of Rimuru's magicules and a ultimate skill. It was the only way.
But it's not over yet!

@elkensteyin Agreed. I wish they condensed the first 6 episodes a bit, and leave more room for episodes like this, but I'm guessing they had budget constraints.

But wow, so much better than any of the first 6, that's for sure.

Welp, looks like it's the end for Hinata, rip, they never had an understanding till the end, the whole misunderstanding never got cleared up, she got attacked by her sword. Why did it even ended up with a cliffhanger, I wonder if Luminous will appear to clear everything up plus she can revive people from what I know.

even though there were many chances of clearing up the misunderstanding and ending the fight, they just keep fighting and then Hinata got attacked by her sword. i guess that's what you get for being dumb, blindly following orders without knowing why they gotta fight

Rimuru is physically and talent wise weaker than Hinata and other sword users, like Hakuro for example.

Raphael literally developed a new skills in the middle of a fight to counter Hinata's speed.

@PrimeX I mean... That's kinda the whole premise of the show. Even in previous battles he's never really struggled.

Yikes, the show's score is about to go below 8...

I'm hoping it recovers from the damage caused by that tragic first 6 episodes, but it's looking like this will the first season of Tensura that drops below 8 (not counting the spinoff and movie). Guess that's what happens when the studio rides on the coattails of the fanbase.

so reyheim was already dead when he met up with hinata and those seven morons manipulated rimuru's message to her? that's what i'm guessing. and although that hit hinata took was fatal, i have a feeling rimuru will do everything in his power to save her. i mean, he CAN heal her, right? gaaah! i guess i'll find out what happens next episode.

What happened with Hinata’s final attack? Raphael suggested “sacrificing” Bezzebub and then didn’t explain herself after Hinata implied he could have dodged

Curious if Raphael is rebelling in some way

@stevejawbs it should have went below an 8 a long time ago. And a 7 score is too generous. It already collapsed on all polls. Easily the worst anime of the season. Just a bad fight scene in general. Worse than the botched konosuba castle raid. And that is what all you folks have been waiting for.

Luminus just went from a lovely gothic girl into a perverted Yuri... 😑
Give me back my admiration!

P.S. And the score went from 8.40 to 8.02. Nice A.I. bots. Well played.

Anyway, I'm glad to see Hinata again.
Best waifu of the season.

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.

Oh nooooessss I hope Hinata survives. Rimuru quick! Just dump some full cures on her before she bleeds out too much o____o

I think I kind of like the fight between Hinata and Rimuru because there just purely wasn't a lot of special effects.

But the recent 2 (and probably the next) episodes are not going to meet the expectation that came out of 5-6 episodes worth of buildup.

S3 haters have been real quiet since last episode 😎

This was great, I think is the 1st time I found Shion to be an actually good character lol, and it's nice to see that Hinata can actually laugh and talk like a normal girl.

BUT YOOO, DID RIMURU REALLY SACRIFY BEELZEBUB? NO WAY, THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN HIS FAVORITE SKILL, EVER SINCE HE GOT IT AS GLUTONY, FUCK.
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~

Nooo Hinataaaaaa 😭
I will be very sad if she died 😢
Did Raphael just trick Rimuru to give up his ultimate skill???!
By collecting evidence from previous seasons, the one in ice should be the hero locked Veldora
1. Luminous mentioned that Veldora was ruining her area
2. Veldora said he was sealed by the hero because destroying a country
3. We saw the hero in Shizu memories looks like that

That is, all this time we were fed the verey boring business meetings precisely so that they accumulated strength for at least several episodes of good well animated action?

@YuriEmpress Is that the only thing that interests you about this show? Also, if it's that important to you, given that Rimuru initially looks like a deceased female character and created a harem out of it, the "yuri" was there from the beginning.
@RobertBobert Rimuru's soul is male, it's body is genderless, Rimuru just can't make male organ.(Probably because Raphael sensei)

@YuriEmpress He originally said that he deliberately chose a sexless body, but could still make genitals if he wanted. But the question is different, the appearance of his avatar is still female.

What the hell was this fight? I thought there was more urgency years ago when I read the light novel. This reminded me of like a play fight skit from like rdc or something making fun of how people in anime talk. 8 episodes of yapping into that? The directing like totally ruining this anime this season...

Its nice to see Hinata and Rimuru converse greatly using their sword. Shion as well showing such a great skill as a chef, making those hot-blooded dude took an L. Even everyone that took each of their opponent seems like having fun. But not with that end...

I feel like it can be avoided more smoothly since there's Raphael, Rimuru response kinda facepalm me. Tho to increase some tense, i guess its fine to make the end kinda dramatic like that. Even though its a 99,999% Hinata doing fine with those hole, its still interesting to know Luminous also coming as well. Can't wait to see the opening sequence of her and Veldora....

The first fight wasn't a draw. Hinata kills Rimuru in multiple timelines the first time they meet because she's much stronger at that point.
- Rimuru was isekai'd 3 years ago, has no talent for fighting, rarely trains, leaves everything to his A.I.. Rimuru has no idea what skills he even has at this point he's so reliant on Raphael.
- Hinata was isekai'd 10 years ago, she's a natural fighter and a real meathead, trained a ton to get to this level. She's one of the best swordsman.
- A lot of characters posses the Thought Acceleration skill, including Hinata.
- Rimuru is like Rudeus, a mage with a lot of mana and spells. Don't expect him to win a sword fight every time it happens.
- Rimuru could tank Hinata's final attack and survive, but Raphael has other plans that's why the skill sacrifice happened.

what timeline are you talking about?? they only met 1 time and rimuru escaped, he didn't want to kill hinata meanwhile hinata went allout with some equipments ,,,

and 3years of Raphael >> 10 years of hinatas experience,, i think because Raphael is basically a ai with little bit of emotions ( I felt it) ,,
