I don't like anything about this arc. All characters in this country are unlikable, Fohl and Atla's revenge is cliche, Shield Hero turned into side character. I was expecting at least decent fight - it was very mid at best.
Just get on the ship and get out of this country!

ehh was decent. Up till now my biggest issue was the lack of action from naofumi, all the politics played out without him saying much, he just stands there arms folded. You'd think he'd research the country's history, get more info about the people (white tiger civillians), learn about political stances from the other races (like from the panther, dragon, and turtle races etc).

For a kingdom politics plot, after 4 eps it feels like there were a lot they could've done but not much has happened. Maybe its an adaption issue? I'll just have to read the ln to find out.

That said, I did enjoy the ost throughout the battle as well as the scene leading up to fohl's henshin.

This season and especially this episode touching so much on Fohls and Atla’s backstory and what happened to their father is amazing. Especially the ending of the episode where he turns into the White tiger was amazing. All i wonder is if thats his permanent form of can he transform like the other demi-humans

I can't believe they weren't able to end this shit in just 1 episode lmao
Skipped 95% of the episode, it feels like filler, Fohl's transformation is the only important thing on this episode, like, does anyone watching this even though the siblings were going to lose? lol
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~
Btw, cry about it.

Between Jaralis going full lion mode and Fohl reaching SSJ levels of furriness, I'm afraid to find out what furry lovers thought of this episode...

But seriously, freaking side quest taking almost half the season to be completed. What a pain smh.
And lmao at Jaralis straight-out admitting he committed treason in a room full of nobles and politicians. Bruh... I swear Shield Hero villains never cease to amaze me with their low IQs.

Jaralis is a ripoff of every bad villain in fiction; he might as well say next episode "I would've had the kingdom in my grasp, if it weren't for those pesky kids!".

One of the better episodes of the season, despite the fairly obvious reveal of the lion killing their father. But it's nice to see Fohl stand up for himself, considering he's always kind of been a punching bag. I'm guessing they're going to finish this arc by episode 6, leaving the rest of the season to cover whatever the next arc is.

Episode 5 now please. I need to see teenaged tiger kitty, errr Fohl, take down the dandy lion. That was a fantastic episode. Lion's (I truly don't know Dandy Lion's name because I've been calling him DL since his character was introduced) supporters are garbage. After hearing how he killed Tyran they should've gathered up the bull warrior and bailed. I'm pretty sure if he weren't out cold he would not still support him. I hope with the old man out of the way they can't say they don't know the outcome later.

I've got an idea... let's do a quick side story with no real relationship to the rest of the plot that adds a couple of really lame characters, then completely sideline the main cast in order to waste a quarter of a season force-developing these pointless side characters. The characters will be tiny children and naturally they should be front-line melee fighters.

The episode was kinda boring at the start, but at the end it was pretty good, especially the thunder from Fohl's eyes. Looking forward to Team Naofumi fighting against the enemies.

You can see more details in the animation, in addition to changes/downgrades in the storyboard.
They cut this animation in seconds 21 of Fohl looking at his hand in beast form, The transition was great, as was the storyboard and the 2D aura effects. They probably cut this scene because it would have been too much work to animate.
Honestly, what a disappointment. 😭

Atla dealed with her opponent quite easily, and after she was ready to help her brother, that was having a bit of a hard time fighting his opponent, due to his dirty tricks.

But this was a personal fight for Fohl, he needed that closure for his life. And that he did. Jaralis knew he had nothing to lose now, so he confessed that he was the one that killed Folh and Atla's father, after being envious of the success he always had. Not only he did this (not so) shocking reveal, he threatened Fohl in sending him to the same place as his father.

There was a scene where Jaralis almost killed Fohl, and I honestly thought the episode was ending there, but no, it had still a bit to go on, and we actually saw Fohl transforming into beastman mode, that made him quite stronger. Honestly, it was about time Fohl had this powerup, ever since they hyped him up in the 3rd season, just to be revealed as a bit weak, comparing to his sister.

It's also really satisfying to finally see a character being actively explored in this anime, after 2 seasons of just rushing things off. The backstory of these 2 tiger siblings was long needed.

Fohl looks really cool with his beast transformation and that hengen muso style he is using looks like tiger style kungfu in real life which really fits with his race

The past of Jaralis having to fend himself against the White Tigers, once with Tyran, and now with Fohl, it feels as if his nightmares have returned to haunt him.

Naofumi and the gang can only place their hopes on the sibling White Tigers fending against both Jaralis and Lyceras, of which despite their rich heritage of agreements and disagreements that led to the rebellion that put both Tyran and Jaralis on the same predicament. And now, a generation later, the heir of Tyran's children facing against the faction that warrants Naofumi and the rest to stay in Siltvelt, and regardless of how the fight goes, the sacred duel will not change until a winner is realized.

Against the backdrop of Lyceras's defeat, Jaralis revealing his past with Tyran to his children, stealing the glory of which their father fought hard for to the point of backstabbing him, this is the culmination of the same fight that continues within the family's blood, at least when it came to survival of the fittest for the son with his ailing mother and still-newborn Atla at the time. Despite Jaralis's puny tricks, it too released the beast warrior within Fohl.

Man, the fight is a drag, but it has amp.

I mean .. this season's nice and all with the white tiger cubs' backstory, but aren't we just completely swerving off track now?? We were supposed to be on track to solve Raphtalia's little issue with her home country, and BEFORE THAT we were supposed to be figuring out what the hell is happening with all the alternate worlds and why their heroes are attacking this world, and EVEN BEFORE THAT the most basic task was fighting off the Waves, but I feel like these plot points has all been lost somewhere in the spiralling off of the story ..
