Excellent magical sword moment, i expect no less than AOE total anihilation when pulling that bad boy out.
It's a good idea to not make the Regalia her permanent weapon since it would get boring fast, and it makes sense too because Clevatess just doesn't like it , lol

The bugs don't even like the light of stream splitter, but seriously being able to use the water inside the bugs is OP.

@OmnipotentGeass Her breasts look a lot more natural in the manga, i don't like when they make them perfect spheres like they did now

@Fairtale What do you mean not attack the mage? That was first thing she tried to do before all the giant insects started attacking her. It's not like she could just ignore those. We saw what they could do last episode to a villager. If all she did is blindly try and get to him those large insects would probably tear her apart. Even when she jumped out of the small creek she was jumping towards the mage before she is intercepted by those moths which she had deal with. Then when she was dealing with the moths he attacked her with the giant scorpion.

It seems like to me she was clearly trying to get to him but had deal with the threats that were right in-front of her. Alicia could not ignore them. Heck he even seemed aware of how the large insects force your immediate attention, which is why he used small venomous insects that where too small to be noticed as an immediate threat. The venom from those slowed her down and made her less effective. If it was not for clevatesses dark Ichor that probably would have killed her right there.

@Fairtale If I were to criticize anything it would be talking as a "free action", but that's a super common thing across media in general.

So epic and dark!! I wish these other fantasy anime were as dark as this show. It's truly underrated and this is what fantasy anime should be not the same boring crap we've been getting.

I figured that Clevatess would've communicated with Alica via telepathy but instead he was somehow able to manifest in a dog-like body and also in the human body he's been using. However, it seems like his main body is still trapped in the bubble so it looks like he will still need Alicia's help in completely freeing himself. Also, Clevatess mentioned that Drel is being guided by another dark beast which would explain how powerful he is, good bit of information there.

Alicia destroying all the insects with the sword and then beating Meynard was insane, though it's one of the enemies yes but there's a much more threatening one who's coming... I can't wait to see how it'll turn out.

Why they have to explain every little thing they doing? Exasperates me at the point to almost drop it... feel the same for most of this animes season, animation and theme's not bad, but they ruin the pace talking shit most of the time...

It's hard to enjoy a show when they treat you like a retard fool who need everything to be explained or ends suffering endlessly filler dialogues with 0 interest for the plot... gg

Bla bla blah my insects are powerfull, bla bla blah my powers are so incredible I have to share with the enemy, blablablah and we ended another chapter without doing nothing, wait for the next... seriously... meh

@Makaflayer It's a common thing. I tend to notice it more often when an anime follows a manga closer. Also an other annoying that happens is when the anime shortens talking during fights some people will get annoyed for dropped content. Can't make everyone happy.

Anyways it's a common thing one such term for it "talking is a free action": https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TalkingIsAFreeAction

Alicia is the real Chad woman, she classy, ​​we are far from the little prig

I'm glad that Mark is someone who is understandable and nuanced, we can't all be someone like his sons for example or most of the villagers, episode 8 was much better than last week and we got answers to the how and why, Drel and so powerful, it's more coherent now.

Even if I'm a little scared I find that everything is happening a little too quickly, we were presented with a vast universe with several kingdoms and factions, I hope it won't end with drel.

that we will be able to see the other kingdoms, the other demons even if we already have 3 demon kings, our friend clevatess the other demon queen, and the demon king with drel normally

It took a while to get to the climax. But it was worth it to see Alicia go nova on the bug army. Meynard even surprised me a bit by saying he would not surrender. Then when he begins another pompous speech...
SLICE!... "Frankly I don't think I could take any more of your long speeches."

Wow this was good!

I wonder how Klen got out? Did he hide some part of his essence?

Alicia is based, her speech reminded me a lot about AoTs survey corps.

Just 100% suspense today, and I'm here for it. Another great Episode 8 from less discussed fantasy anime this season.

Sure it wasn't the best animation out there, but the directing still slaps!

Marvelous episode. Brilliant action scenes intertwining horror-esque moments on the brink of bug-centered jumpscares. :D Alicia's final attack was epic.

Alicia, Nelluru and Luna being cornered in a watermill, and being outed by the town guard Mark to know her intentions, she's at least a trustworthy figure after proving that she fought against Clevatess. But just when they got a free pass out, Meynard coming in with his wall of bugs from all corners, putting Alicia and the other townsfolk at risk, they finally know who to side with and get their defenses tight against the bugs.

Klen's surprise visit to Alicia in his creature form amidst trying to fend against the Boelate army's strongest wizard, and him having no choice but to reveal himself through the Regalia sword, certainly gives Alicia the boost she was looking for. And as for Klen, dealing with General Drel with the backing of another Lord of Dark Beasts, the battle's not over at the very least.

Alicia's Regalia sword is certainly too OP for that regard, and that's what makes her the hero.
