I do not know why, but I have a bad feeling that the Demonoids will go after Sicily and the wounded. I feel that someone is going to die of the 12 magicians. My biggest fear is that it's Sicily. It would be a very shocking and sad touch for the final episode.

The guy who infiltrated the demonoid group did see Shin talking with Sicily so sadly I can suspect that's possible but I really don't want her to die! Would much rather have her be demonized and have him save her but I can't imagine that happening. She is too good of a person and is living too good of a life to have something to nurture hatred towards.

"I seems like someone does find you attractive" Price August to Maria

I find her to be the most (or top 3 at least) attractive one in the whole anime ffs.

Anyways an entertaining episode I guess, demonstrating the groups new found power under Shin. Shin also looked pretty badass in this episode

So I'm guessing there is a season 2 for this? I know its meant to be a "dire" situation (even though it feels nothing like it) but can't you just have the characters be a bit more lively? Especially Shin. The first few episodes had this tone where things and characters were fun (the dumb fun kind) and weren't taking itself seriously - it felt a little bit like those wish-fulfillment shows like Slime in that regard. Now there is this serious tone seeping through the last few episodes and we see it again. This works against the show's charm it initially had - its already standard isekai, no need to make the generic makeup stand out even more.
I like the balance in serious and comedy, as it's realistic like in real life. One day, you're laughing and having a great time with friends, and the next day tragedy strikes.
I frown at recent installments of Persona and Trails of Cold Steel that introduce harem-like elements in the story.

We need more JRPGs like the past Lunar series, where there are multiple romantic pairings in the party other than for the protagonist and main heroine.

Ofc, 3 months of training with Shin make you the most overpowered magician in the world (...)
The point is that the battles felt very boring, easy and not counting that it was repetitive:
Demonoid: *appear*
Magicians: Oh my gosh! :c
Also Demonoid: I am stronger than humans, I will kill them, huehuehuehuehue!!!
Magicians: o_O * move a finger *
Demonoids: :C I'm dead.
That's with every one of them, terrible.
From the beginning the anime seemed super cliché: the cool and super-powerful protagonist, falling in love at first sight, overpowered fighting team... Anyway, personally I think that each episode was losing the little emotion that conveyed, everything is very predictable.

It doesn't help that the plot looks like it was written by a primary school kid and the director looking like he was tryna salvage it but gave it a major case of tonal whiplash. Or maybe I'm slowly outgrowing anime like these since they mainly target the 13-16 age group.

More like <12. The science aspect screws with Shin's magical arsenal progression.

They may be going for an anime original ending with one big battle with MC vs the big villain for the big finale. Don't see how it bodes well for S2 tho since its completely different from the LN let alone the manga.

No plot points? The ultimate magicians were just trying to save swede. All the big guns show up for the demonoids is different though. Should be fun since the manga hasn't shown any of them even do anything yet.

to nobody I know with a working brain

Someone with a brain would discover that something, like Shin didn't know how to use wind to float when he used the very same element to ironman around a bear (much like someone who doesn't know how to balance a bike but he knows how to race on it), would never have past the first draft.

Someone with a brain would suggest that Shin should've rather said that he does know how to use wind to float but he needs to manipulate gravity instead to do it for everyone else at the same time since it's more efficient and easier and hence less splat on the ground. No one with a brain should be gullible to eat his words "I just never thought of it." which implies that he doesn't know how to float at all - a nonsense.

Someone with a brain would know that the Episode 2 part with Kurt bumping into Shin would make more sense if it happens AFTER his failure to threaten Sizilien because it's absurd to see him already salty just because the villain told him that he is a chosen one or something equivalent.

Someone with a brain, knowing the glaring faults like above and a lot of others that haven't been mentioned, would never have rated 10, unless the scale is 100.

EDIT: Hey, look. I've never realized that I remember Kurt more than Shin's friends. He's been dead for like how long now? 7-8 episodes? This anime really.

Him being here is funnier than the whole anime combined. What makes it even funnier still is that he is resorting to solely insults to get back at people now. This is why no one with a brain would defend this mess.

Hmm...the 'final' battle? Doesn't seem like that to me though.

The prevalent comedy, for all intensive purposes were inserted for all the wrong reasons, but they're still a tad hilarious. Or maybe that's my low taste for isekai such as this, that I'm kinda enjoying a little.

So wash, rinse, repeat is the formula here, not that it hasn't appeared now, but since the beginning.

And ever with the serious tone the past episode, this and the last next week, still feels like Shin and his classmates are just getting started. Plus, Shin being OP is just too boring to watch.

The demonoid attack is not done yet! Instead of Schtrom, his assistant moves into the field? What gives?

Yawn. The characters never really struggled with anything. Their `training arc` was an absolute joke and the romance is worse than a shoujo series. They have an OP MC that showed them how to shake and bake their powers and voila, they're OP too. The enemies are generic cannon fodder and just as forgettable as the main cast and their regurgitated designs. Schtrom was the only interesting character but he barely gets any screen time because the writers want to focus on stupid romantic scenes that barely have anything to do with the main plot. A year, five years, ten years from now, people will forget about this series and never talk about it again.

I once rated this a 7/10 but as the series progressed with each episode, it just fell into annoying Anime/manga tropes with very little originality. Isekai in itself is an overly used premise that is rarely done right. This series gets an instant 1/10 from me. It had potential but failed. I highly doubt the last episode would save it.

They were no name demons. The point was show how much our ultimate magicians have progressed. There should some good challenge next when the big guns come out for the demonoids
