Stop exaggerating. So many? let's count
Shiroe x Akatsuki, Minori, Henrieta (that's 3)
Naotsugu X Marielle (1 couple)
Nyanta X Serara (1 couple)
Rudy X Isuzu ( 1 Couple)
Even though they're not, Raynessia x Krusty ( 1 couple)

So how many shipping? just 7 and most of the encounters in this episode only lasted under 1 minute

It's not fucking fillers.
This arc will mostly show the relationship between the Adventures and The Landers after the Goblin King event.

What you are seeing right now is comparable to reading the first 3 chapters of 5th volume of the light novel. And being the early chapters of a new arc, of course there are no "climax", duh...

If you don't like it, be my guest. But this is not a filler, and that is a fact.

Isn't there too much romance mixed with the original story right now? Is not that I don't like it, but romance is not a good genre to mix in this anime. (though I'm a romance sucker, so that's not that bad for me)

For me, the romance seems a bit out of place... Like, from the very start, we knew the anime would put the main two together, even though there's barely any development for them. I would be fine if it did what Shounens usually do, which is behind the scene. Problem for me is that Akatsuki isn't likable or relatable (especially compared to characters from other shows like Nagi no Asukara). :/

is this PoTL chaos the effect of the new magic?
will henrietta x shiroe ship sail? (i don't think so)
what technology behind those ship in preview? it's quite different from ocypette and i don't think PoTL can make such a ship

Shit's getting real!

Look like they'll face an ''inivisible'' opponent. Is that guy an NPC or an adventurer? He seem to own the NPC in his hand. Will he try to conquer Akihabara?

There have also been some peoples noticing that the girl with the blond hair that to the kid that Shiroe had a created a new type of magic that she was wandering in Akihabara. I'm pretty sure she will become an important opponent. Is she even an adventurer or a NPC?

About the shipping, there's so many!! But ShiroexAkatsuki is da best. Poor her, she always tease and doesn't notice a damn xD
Also, I loved how everytime she was saying to Naotsugu ''I will kill you!'', there was those NPC guard appearing :P

Minori trying her best to help Shiroe reputation :)

Henrietta even forgetting about Akatsuki because of Shiroe :O
What a ladykiller.

Now it's official that Marielle is totally digging Naotsugu. And that she's a ton of boxes.

back on track a little after the silly, poorly executed love triangle story. it does add a little to minori, although it's not really believable that shiroe has women falling over themselves for him. I wish they'd develop the major points a little more thoroughly, it's like everything just gets a surface treatment.

Cute half card.

Cool so they can change their sub-class and I also like the idea of an Apprentice sub-class

This is my guess but maybe the adventures from minami's technology that give them those ship considering that those PoTL comes from the west.

Honestly I don't know. It could be better or it could a be an awkward stop. Right now, they're just optimizing and using the episode that they already got. (You can't just make 20 episodes on a government funded anime without special reasons.)

But since you've read it, do you think the interlude of Vol 5 is a much better place to stop?

It really doesn't matter in the end though, cause haters gonna hate, no matter where you put the story of Volume 5.

Gonna inform you now, there are no "Physical action". It's going to be an economy war.

There are no more physical actions till the next volume, which is in season 2 if they ever gonna make it.
This is akin to the efforts Shiroe must do to make the Round Table Conference.

hmm, Akihabara guardians weakness found. when Akatsuki attacked Naotsugu and exchange the stamp cards, the guardians ignored the fight. Is that for comedy, or is there a loophole to the non-fighting agreement in Akihabara maintained by the guardians(NPC)? If so, then assassins can get away with battles in Akihabara if they are professional about it( sticking to an assassin's methods).

Also, "that girl" you guys been talking about is the same one who told the story that sound like the same thing that Shiroe went through to three kids in the castle right?
I only saw her once, Her hair seen more white or some bleached color to me, but it does looked lightly blonde, so what is her hair color? And when were the other two times she was spotted? I saw here after Akatsuki kicked Naotsugu.

Not that I don't favor the Shiroe X Henrietta ship but her inner monologue had quite a bit left out compared to the LN version. I'm a bit bothered that they chose to emphasize the fact that she definitely does see him as an attractive man but left out the part where she admits she's just got too plain a personality and knows it wouldn't work out anyway since Shiroe isn't into that sort of stuff just yet. And that if Shiroe is going to go into a relationship she'd rather he'd be w/ either Akatsuki or Minori cuz she feels they deserve him more and she is wholeheartedly supporting them both even though she knows both of them are slow on romance.

So, yes, Henrietta is attracted to Shiroe but she has decided she wont make a move on him. So the shiptease is practically non-existent in the LN.

I dub the new antagonist Lord Death Note! Christ he does look like Ryuk, I did a double take there when I saw his face.

Found out about the Naotsugu x Marielle ship from the manga around two or thee months back, so nothing new there. The other couples are pretty much as expected from the anime.

Nyanta san finally showing some BadAss-ness after being relegated to side character in the past two or three arcs. Even Shiroe stopping the NPC with a finger was cool.

Akatsuki, poor Akatsuki, won't be noticed by her Lord even when she blatantly gets herself fixed up by Henrietta (I thought she was plenty cute in those modern clothes). Getting pissed off at Naotsugus teasing was funny as heck, specially since we haven't seen those useless guardians in a while.

Minori's new subclass seems interesting, but does that mean that she'll keep all her skills if she's apprenticed to another teacher? I mean if she was apprenticed to Shiroe, then she'd get Scribe skills, but does that mean if she went under Nyanta as a cook, then she would lose the scribe abilities that she'd previously acquired? If thats the case, I can understand why no one really wants to use that subclass.

Krusty and Issac have so much respect for Shiroe, made me appreciate him all the more since he's been stuck the last two arcs not doing much else but paperwork (apart from the BA Rudy revival).

Please pray tell how did you reach that conclusion.........unless you are gay for Shiroe or jealous of him.

He has to take care of too many things first before thinking about himself. Also Minori is getting better and better. People were complaining about her before but she showed that rather than acting cutesy and helpless she would try to get better and help Shiroe as much as she can. Girls like that, how can anyone not admire personality and resolve?

Poor people of the land, they are going to learn firsthand just what the "Villain in Glasses" is like. Not to mention the Demonic Warrior in Glasses and the Black Knight too.

More like he's oblivious to all of it. He's too busy thinking about the Round Table Conference, getting more information and the whole mysteries of the world.

In Shiroe's eyes:
Akatsuki is just another close female member of his guild (Main source of Akatsuki's problem in the future)
Minori is just a close student to him, he sees nothing romantic in their relationship
Henrietta is honestly the only female he treats equally, but the problem lies with Henrietta for not pursuing more.

this anime will end with happy Threesome just like Maoyuu.

in LN(in exact this ep) Henrieta state that she think Shiroe is special, but she doesn't like Shiroe as a lover. dunno why anime version make it look like harem anime.
for poor Minori, there is no hope for her.

in the end. Shiroe x Akatsuki x "that girl"
