It was very funny to see Lelei waking up. And the best girl is still here to tease Itami. Each time I see Rory, she is more and more cute and awesome !
Piña was beautiful in that dress

In original material does romance develop?

HAHA..nice to see the Rory Fantasy being animated...that was gold XD.

Wow I love Dhalia's Design...looks fantastic.

Ah Yao..the dark elf finally made her appearance..they toned down her design...which was lot more reveling in the novel as expected.

I just hope this delay thing with the episodes..does not repeat itself every week :(

Welp, Itami might be getting another girl to his harem.

Tuka; I tami is right about her. But, it would be nice if he himself would snap her out of it.

Guessing Yao is going to become relevant from here on out. If so that's good to know, she's a cool character. Though she did ruin Rory's plans for the evening, which I too wanted to happen.

Loved the F-4 Phantom. I'm not too well versed in planes, but I do acknowledge the ones I know.

Rory never fails to entertain us with her antics and fantasies. Yao also looks like she'll be a nice addition to the cast. More of a cool-down, slice of life episode.

Also, I felt bad for Tuka when she was wandering around looking for her dad.

Btw, how they will defeat the red dragon? use aircraft with air to ground missile, tank with sabot munition or use dual shaped charged anti tank missile like previous episode?...
woahh..... :)

Lets just say flame dragons wont go down by a few shots, you will need quite some firepower to actually kill one :)
The sdf in the manga


Someone knows how far the manga is adapted compared to the light novel (which is finished)?.
The anime just finished chapter 27 from the 48 manga chapters that are out. At this pace the anime will catch up to the manga when all episodes are out.
Is the novel end in sight already with the current status of the manga?

Why the girl besides rory , the girl with a feather on her head wasn't talking even a single word ? I really want her to talk thought. or maybe she didn't has a Voice actor ? btw, I'm liking her too.

Loved this episode ... Rory is a really bad GIRL :D. The way she set up Itami WAS NOT COOL. I liked her plan though. Surprisingly she didn't attack the dark elf, wonder what will happen next week. Will the elf apologize to Itami. It will be really hard to defeat that dragon, but with those planes it will be possibRU.

this episode showed how important it is to give a series enough episodes and time so it can actually build a world, the place the series is now it actually feels like we got to see it get to that point

really enjoying it.

also how much novel material is there and how much has been adapted so far?

i like the new character

That's Myuute. We saw her briefly after the battle of Italica.

In the manga, she gets a few lines. In the anime, she doesn't even get animated. In the manga, she's seen handling the paperwork for the crooks Rory brings in. "I can't believe I'm an underling of Rory the Reaper", she says to herself.

Lelei waking up like that.. let me guess... she played video games in her new laptop all night. Oh look... Papi is here too!

I feel bad for Tuka but Itami is kind of right. You're not going to be there for her forever, and she will live longer than any of the Jietai. So giving her a false hope is kind of sad.

Your weekly Rory goodness!!!


Rory's imagination gone wild.


You do not, I repeat, YOU DO NOT cockblock Rory OR call her a child lol.


I think Rory made that "help me" scene to revenge on Itami for ruining the mood with his phone lol.

That dark elf is gonna be so broken when she knows that she pulled a sword on the leader of the people in green. She also reminds me with Villetta Nu from Code Geass. Ohh Rory... you're kind of mean sometimes. Although Itami will be totally fine with helping her.

I got to admit i don't really agree with Itami on the whole Tuka and her dead father issue. I mean what are they gonna do, let her wander around every night for decades to come looking for a guy she can't come to terms with as being dead? I'm not saying they should give her another crutch to lean on, but she needs to face reality and learn to stand on her own two feet. Even if she is only a teenager by elf standards, that's plenty old enough for her to deal with the loss of her father and move on. And even more probable if she has the help of friends. I don't know how long it takes for an elf to get over such things, but i still think they should do something.

What Itami said is true: one should not get involved with something unless one is willing to see it through to the end. Being in the military, on foreign deployment, Itami knows that they don't have that luxury with Tuka: they could be ordered to leave the gate area the next day, and what would happen to Tuka then? Right now Tuka can at least live a normal life, outside of her searching for her father, she is capable of existing on her own, as things are now it would be irresponsible for Itami or anyone to force her to confront her problems if they would not be willing to take responsibility for her should they fail.

Now, should Tuka's condition worsen, then the situation changes. Also slight spoiler, won't really ruin much:



On a side note this explains something that a lot of foreigners don't get about Japan. Lots of people have the experience of going to ask a Japanese person for help, only to have the Japanese people completely ignore them. Many people think this is racist, but that isn't the case, it's cultural. In Japan if a person stops to help then they are committed to see things through to the end, regardless of how long it takes. The reason the Japanese person ignores the request is that they cannot make that commitment.

"in for a penny, in for a pound" is the English expression, but in Japan it would be more accurate to say "in for a penny, in for a century note". They are that committed (which is likewise one of the charms of the country - when they can commit they DO see it through, they do not "half ass" assistance).

If elf you mean the dark elf and noble you mean Cicero? I'm going out on a limb and assume the military has learned the foreign land's language. And the speaking in Japanese is just to make production of the show easier as creating a whole other language would be difficult. We're probably expected to assume they are actually speaking the foreign language when talking to the land beyond the gate.

Actually 90% of the JSDF wont understand them (dark elf, cicero and any other inhabitant of this new world) apart from some "basic" words . itami's squad and the japanese envoy are some of the few who can. The show indeed just uses japanese for the foreign language cuz reasons.
Next week you are supposed to see that the dark elf will have a hard time finding someone from the "green men" who can understand her.

Exactly, the person visiting with Pina is a diplomat well trained in her language (not important enough to check if the anime covered it, but it was brought up in the Manga when they met in Japan), and Itami had some help from Rory (this has never been covered, but he suddenly understood the native language better back when he had his head in her lap after Pina slammed him with the door), so now he understands the language (though not explained Itami specifically mentioned the strange sudden ability).

Overall I think the series does a good job at explaining where the language breaks down, and has been pretty consistent in its usage. It does abbreviate some of the explanations, but covers enough without being too boring for the viewers.

I did notice that a JSDF officer (A Major who looked like he was wearing infantry insignia) got out of the carriage at the capital with Pinya and Sugwara. He may be acting as a translator.

I don't think that's the reason, I think she just didn't want Itami getting involved. Since he had a mission the next day that makes sense -- she didn't want him distracted.
