Somehow they made this story noticeable and objectively worse by removing the rape and racism.

It was a good watch up to Episode 7, but the pacing on Episode 8 is absolutely horrendeous. I'm dropping this.

Eternally suffering for Simon. That was quite satisfying. But, why did they cut Barry and Camilla's scenes?!! Jeeeeez
@AkeZZZ You're not allowed to do that to a woman on television.

Alright then what do i get here? Ofc brilliant mc manage to get use of the immortal ruler curse by his trademark snapping finger. Hell yeah boy. He dispel Rain collar, gotta be her bride after, even saving Jamie curse with positive curse whatever, and then curse the undead Simon onto something so cursed i can't even contain my laugh when that's happening. Oh boy what an episode.

Well that was brutal but it's Simon's own fault.

Good to see Jamie better and I will miss her. Was hoping she'd join clover but oh well that'd be too convenient ig.

Very nice ending ;d I didn't expect Simon to get such a bad end ;o
Too bad Jamie didn't join them, but maybe in a year? it has 24 episodes so maybe..
but maybe I should have started this anime after it had more episodes? ;( I am only left with one now ;(;(;(

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

I'm confused, isn't it light magic's work to dispel curses or the power to nullify the slave collar.

Why are everyone in this world who hates Yuke care about his harem, it's just ridiculous.

So the shadow stalker just kept on attacking the Simon, while the whole Clover was standing and watching from a small distance and not a single Shadow stalker tried to attack them? It's a jock right, cause it's not funny.

And that's the end of the shitty Thunder Pike party and Simon. Good fucking riddance! It was satisifying seeing Yuke do that to Simon, and now Simon will suffer for eternity. Glad he didn't show him any mercy and didn't care that they were childhood friends. Yeah, Jamie got rescued, but she's still a bitch for laughing at Yuke back then with the other Pike members, and so I don't care about her even if she wasn't as big of an asshole as the other Pike members were. I'm glad she wasn't invited to join Clover, even if she is banned from adventuring for a year, so hoping I don't see her face again.

Jamie being the only sane person of Thunder Pike with her feelings hidden against her and secretly recording their evil deeds, her Black Box artifact is solid evidence of the distress signal found in Achromatic Darkness, and the girls can't afford to put Yuke in danger going back to save the one and only friend worth saving. Even Persephone's mark on Yuke allowing him to dispel the slave collar on Rain, and inflict a curse on Besio, he got his just desserts alright. Scordia leader Lucent arriving at Clover's base to provide him another Scroll of Exit to save Jamie, it's truly a blessing for Yuke to save an old and dear comrade friend.

But considering Achromatic Darkness and its stairway to different and unpredictable abnormalities, Clover has only one chance to find Jamie at the soonest, skipping against the Grey Field and landing at an alternate and destroyed Finis. To find Simon being an undead from Besio's artifacts, Marina tries with her Black Box artifact sword and being capable against her, there's no option but to take down Simon, even if Yuke has to use Persephone's dark magic against him, and even doing the same for Jamie to save her from imminent death. It hurts, but this is where Yuke parts ways with Simon.

At the very least, Clover being forced out of party activities and Jamie being stripped of her adventurer status, it's the end of the heinous reign of Thunder Pike, officially. Hopefully we'll get to see Jamie in the future.

Okay so like I suggested last episode she did record things... even so I feel like that still doesn't really redeem her at all even if the show wants to convince you of that.
Also how have we not acknowledged the slave collar at all. 04:40 what kind of opposite world logic is that. "I was put in the most danger and still am, so I should go" bro what. No it's the reverse you shouldn't go exactly because of that. And again I still don't know why they had them unconscious for that scene as it would make them unaware of what happened? Like are we supposed to assume he filled them in on it later? including the threats of rape and murder?
Lol bro gave him a restraining order.
So as long as you think positively the dungeon will only take you to positive places?
Bro really got a fate worse than death.
I guess the other 2 are just "normal dead" it makes you question how Jamie even survived though.
But yeah it pretty much happened exactly like I thought it would apart from what happened to Simon not being simply death and also didn't expect the dungeon to have that explanation. Though personally I don't get closing it considering it actually would be a really useful dungeon if it just goes wherever you want it to go.

Yea dude was a piece of shit, but idk, I'd still feel incredibly guilty for condemning someone to suffering for supposedly forever.

The other members of thunder pike were just completely ignored so I went and checked the manga, and it's wild what happened to them as well lol. I didn't think it would get that fucked up, and I'm not surprised it was cut out. It's chapter 65 of the manga in case anybody wants to know

edit: I skimmed through more of the manga before this episode and the contents of this episode itself and I gotta say they changed A LOT. Like it almost feels like a completely different story, In a bad kind of way as well

*Shrug* eh I'll keep watching I suppose

@Devil_Jin205 interesting, do you really believe they were ever friends? I'm sure Yuke thought so, but the other 3? I seriously doubt they would've ever treated Yuke the way they did if they actually ever considered him a friend and not just a convenient tool.

Personally think they deserved everything, considering what they tried to do to Clover, it's literally karma coming back for them. They've never had any justification for their actions, not against Yuke, and certainly not against the Clover girls who they never even personally knew. It's also pretty unsatisfying and left things open the way they cut what happened to the other two. They didn't have to show gorey parts, but confirming that they actually died instead of leaving it open for anime only watchers would've been the proper thing to do given what actually happened to them in the source.

The guild master and the king being useless again this episode, biting the hands that fed them. Rain flexing the artifact ring like it's a wedding ring by herself is crazy. Of course they have no problem cursing this guy to death multiple times (deserved don't get me wrong), but Thunder Pike? Nope, better save them. Scordia truly the goat this episode too. It's sad that proper A rank parties like them are being abused and distanced because of the incompetence of the guild master and the king.

Jamie truly the MVP and I don't even like her...I remember what she said about our MC when he left the party in ep1 and her deeds here doesn't change that, if anything the reveal that Yuke was literally saving her family with medicine but she still thought he was useless made her just as bad as the other members...She didn't even try to apologize to Yuke for all she did in her "final moments" (she did after, but that's under very different situation and circumstances). The way they tried to frame it like Jamie was going along with Thunder Pike because of her family made no sense when literally the person who was saving her family was the one who was being abused and left the party. If she had even an inkling of brain, she should've been on his side and left along with him from the start. She's better than the other members because she realized her wrongdoing, but that is not a high bar lol But she does get extra points from me for truly saving the entire series from 12 more eps of Thunder Pike garbage plot that's been stretched for way too long.

I didn't expect mc to let his old party getting killed (except the girl).
they really deserve that. also, it looks like MC got something that makes him stronger despite it's a debuff (curse).

Well out of all the times I seen this trope. At least this time one of them reflected on their actions and apologized. Had to be on the other end to understand but still. Good for her.

A-Rank Party wo Ridatsu shita Ore wa, Moto Oshiego-tachi to Meikyuu Shinbu wo Mezasu" delivers an engaging storyline, but the 8th episode misses an opportunity to intensify the tension. The confrontation between the protogenos and his nefarious companion feels lackluster. A high-stakes death match within the dungeon could have significantly elevated the episode's impact, adding a layer of suspense and excitement. Despite this, the series maintains its charm and keeps viewers hooked, hoping for more thrilling developments in future episodes.

No mercy for Simon, huh? Can't say he didn't deserve it. Still zero substantiation in how he turned into a comically evil guy seemingly overnight after being Yuke's childhood friend for so long.

And this series is really hung up on those alleged "discriminatory remarks". It's like I'm watching western television evangelising and virtue signalling to me constantly all over again. "Savage" is an extremely lukewarm, generalist insult; it doesn't warrant all the attention it got in-universe.
