Muthrica is nice! I thought he's a villain.

Golem-san said Somali is more important than money! Wahhh that's so sweet! I'm always sad every episode because he might go away soon huhuhu

Damn, only the 4th episode and I was at the verge of crying, I don't remember an anime that's done that to me yet; that means, this will probably break me at the end worse than some other animes I've seen... Looking forward to that tho, I accept the risk of feeling the feeliest feels!!
One day I'll be active here, in the mean time I'll keep track of what I watch offline 😅

Yet again, this episode made me emotional. Knowing that his time isn't for long... he still made the promise with somali. False hope doesn't go well... I wonder how will this end. Nevertheless, i guess the journey is still long. I'm afraid i might need some more tissues.

The wolf turned out to be a good guy!! And ending up babysitting!!

I find it a bit strange those creatures have been in a genocide war with humans!! They seem to be rather peaceful then anything else!!

The lizard monster was defeated by the power of love.

This is nothing like Made in Abyss after all.

A very emotional episode. I almost teared up when he said that he fears he won't be able to keep that promise.

Congrats on being the first anime of 2020 to make me shed a tear. Hearing Golem-san say he will always be with her was too much for my poor weeb heart.

Why did you promise that, Mr Golem?

I hope this ending has them together at least in spirit :(

This was such a nice episode. I love how they're covering parent and child relationships. Its so nice to see.

But wow they're really hammering the fact that they'll be seperating at the end on us so soon in the anime. I thought it would just hint at it at the beginning then not be relevent till the end but they're gonna keep playing the feels card over and over.

When he promised to say together I immedietly thought he was meaning it in a different way to she was and it hurt.

I can already tell if they go through with it Im gonna die when we see her reaction.

A good medicine is always bitter. That analogy could be used for this anime as well.

Oh my gosh yes! That moment just shattered my heart. This show pulled me into it's world and made me care for these characters almost immediately. I don't know if my heart can take the ending they are leading us towards

It seems that the author forgot about the monsters being able to smell out humans. I was sure that Kikila or Muthrika were going to realize that Somali is human but the show is inconsistent in that regard.

All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath.

He was taught how to make medicine two episodes ago.
Didn't he ask for something that would help against fever or did he forget everything?

The second half was so unbelievably sad...

Somali's wish and Golem's promise. Shot straight through the heart, twice. Somali has a feeling that they're going to part at the end of their journey, and she doesn't want that. But Golem may not have a choice at all...

Golem finally did something that was based purely on his growing parental love towards Somali: he lied. It doesn't make sense, it's not rational nor is it logical. But he didn't want to hurt her, and so he lied.

I'm hoping that comment by that wolf guy is really true, that when that monster left Somali alone that was a sign that her wish could be granted by some miracle...

"I can always work, but there is no replacement for you" Ah right in the kokoro, too wholesome for my heart

That flower better do it's work or else imma come into the 2D world to whoop its ass for not granting Somali's precious wish after all the hard work she put into picking it up.

I can't get over how pretty that underground area is; gorgeous. Gives me serious Made In Abyss vibes.

Didn't Golem learn how to make medicine in episode 2? Feels like a wasted opportunity that he wasn't able to use his medical knowledge to help Somali, but maybe it'll come in handy later.

Awwww Golem hurt Somali's feelings. He seems to be slowly learning from his mistakes at least.

Damn. Seeing Golem make that promise to be with Somali forever was such a gut punch. Hard not to cry at that scene.

I was expecting a comfy anime and got comfiness with a dose of depression. If this ends with Golem dying, I'm going to be a crying mess.

Love the wolf guy telling him "not to let her down" as if he can somehow just stop dying??? Like I don't think that's his fault?
