----------------------------------------
Heh, action picked up again big time this episode. The monsters they faced together were all bloodthirsty too.

I guess this episode was a chance to show how much Rin has improved and also what Remia really capable of. I don't personally find it that surprising though. Taichi also seems to developed more trust in Anna.

A lot of goblins in this episode. Someone should call the Goblin Slayer.

We saw how powerful Rin is in this episode, using the knowledge of her own world.

It still blows my mind and I assume that it will countinue to until it stops airing. The bounds of averageness have been crossed and nothing will stop this show. I honestly think that this is the most generic anime that ever aired.

Classic cheesy save, felt so forced too.

I'm not even sure why I'm still trying to watch this. Maybe because I keep expecting something might happen.

I think it is time to drop.

Taichi picking up 2 new girls and
setting up flags with Rin and Ana this ep

The fights were kinda lame imo. Like idk the whole steam explosion was just a lil tease-away from scene-suddenly all finished
Was interesting to see that grin on the bad ones face, so hes not always "calm" and fake smiling

Lmao, giving goblins a rapist side, as if it was supposed to scare anyone (with other shows, yes it would have).

This battle was not really impressive honestly, despite the number of high level spells. I was just amused by the 2 "evil wannabe loli twins" who got tamed in a blink of an eye by Taichi.

mediocrity of this episode and entire anime is really scary with wasted potential especially in this episode, there were a lot characters that could show their power/abilities but we didn't see it like ex-assassin Anna which always say she is "ex-assassin" but we don't see nothing from her.

The author of this show is and absolute joke. Every concept has been done before in this show and better. It's not even subtle, now we get Goblins? Throw in Loli magicians and a dull as dishwater antagonist and hey presto, another shit sandwich of an episode.

Wow! Those 2 little twins talking about like it was about to become goblin slayer.

Either way probably a good idea to rescue them and have them possibly join the party?

As Taichi said they are strong so they would be very useful to have around.

Always nice having having today's knowledge in worlds like that, that was quite the explosion and took out most of the enemies.

Teacher was very impressive to watch, I enjoyed that.

Great save at the end there, looking forward to seeing what he summons next time.

Rin is such a dumbass. Just because your attack failed doesn't mean you just drop to your knees and wait to be killed. And if she actually didn't have time to dodge then the writers, animators and storyboarders all did a piss poor job of having that come across.

Though I guess my behavior is just as illogical since this has become the 2nd show this season that I'm essentially just hate-watching at this point.

And I've said that isekai series are like a guilty pleasure junk food for me. However this show and its protagonist are like if someone took an off-brand bag of plain chips and then somehow made them even more generic than they already were to the point of any and all flavor being non-existent.

Predictable he'd jump in at that exact moment, though mildly surprised he heard her low-key confession. I'm betting he'll have convenient MC amnesia and forget it after the fight (probably after he passes out from using his new Summoner powers in the next episode). If he actually remembers the confession and does anything about it I'll be surprised.

Glad Ana is ok. Though the series has been relatively toothless so far it keeps giving me the feeling it wants to make a dark turn

Really wondering what is the enemy thinking at this point: a point to prove that the magicheats could outwit the impending goblin attack.

And the Goblin Slayer reference...I'd bet even said title does the whole thing better by a million times. The 2 incompetent lolis can't do their job right, and eventually became Taichi's right-hand lolis...and the thing about Ana that I cannot fathom just yet is her role in this travesty.

Rin, Myura and Lemiya are given the task of their lives under danger to stop the movement, but against the OPed Crimson Pact monsters, it's too far a stretch for a low-key confession from Rin to Taichi, that is the one thing I absolutely hate AND abhor, is the "damsel in distress" moment. Like WHAT THE HELL?

@Solioquy si you finally caught onto the absolute excessive mediocrity of this series? That's sad...this was pretty much a copy-paste idea of the author whose ambition is just to steal ideas and make it his own by combining all of the tropes together. It does not get more "LESS" average than this. It's just...astoundingly mediocre to the fullest.

Rin's "bomb" was mind-bogglingly stupid, she just wasted a bunch of mana while she could've just made on big explosion! Or maybe just electrocute them all when they were in the water.

The worst thing about this show isn't how generic it is, it's how little the animaters care for this. Every battle is just colored panels with sound and as soon as they make an effort to animate something, it gets cut off to save time and resources.

But I've seen worse Isekais, how is this at a score of below 6? By MAL standards it should at least be 6.5

Ugh watching Rin spout science only to then apply it poorly is so annoying, she even names a focused electric discharge "railgun", though I would love to see an isekai MC with how she is setup while using actual science.

Would be interesting to see a MC that's OP not due to whatever power he got when he got transported but due knowledge he had from his previous world(I guess that's why Dr. stone is so popular and why arifureta is tolerated) and no coding is not a choice and even less when your character is some "l33t h4x0rz" that is able to write whole programs in fractions of a second i.e. unrealistic.

Won't be surprising if it's his alt. He did say that he had to rate some anime 10/10 to counteract the 1-voters even though the graphs look normal. And he said it twice already as (if) he has learned nothing.

It occasionally bothers me in anime when a character can be super evil, but then MC forgives them, or saves them or show them sympathy and then all of the sudden the villain is good. Those little earth mage bitches were good to go with the murdering and eating of children and the raping of women, but suddenly that's all washed away and they're good now cause MC saved them? That's lame. I hope they are seriously held to account for their actions.

"It's behind fireforce and kanata no astra so it's 10/10 for me."
Check again. It says "one of the best", not "the best." Since you keep saying that this is the Number 2 isekai just behind Mago, there's a ground for presumption that you would write the message yourself.
Also, I did mention in my second post here that you felt the need to 10 everything that has 1-voters. So, would it be surprising if it's really you? Yes, you could've written the message using the main account but it will take alts to tamper with the score so might as well write something with the alt.
Aside from that, despite how simple the message posted by the alt is, it really screams your pattern, especially back in the early days on that Mago board. Just rate it 10/10 and write "_____ the best anime ever made" on every episode before I came in.

Fuck, I love isekai anime, but this one is fucking awful. The writing's abysmal, the voice acting is subpar, the characters are bland (like most isekai, so I can't really fault it there), the setting is generic, and the story is so bad, I'd prefer if there wasn't one at all. I'll finish the anime, but I doubt I'll enjoy it.

Well, Taichi not only saved Anastasia from the golem, but later he saved two lolis who lost control of the crimson goblins.
While on the surface, Rin and Myura help prepare the troops to be able to face the army of monsters, but for their luck the hot Lemiya will join the battle.

Rin is too OP thanks to the knowledge of her homeworld, that giant attack gave them a great advantage, but this lasted very little since crimson monsters appear and they are out of control.
Lemiya did not stay behind either and showed why she is a recognized sorceress.
I insist that I liked the chemistry between Anastasia and Taichi, they make a good duo in combat and as a couple they would not be bad, of course if Rin decides and beats Anastasia (hahaha, as if that happened, the childhood friend always takes a long time to confess)

With only three crimson ogres remaining, the three girls take care of them, but Rin is very exhausted and the ogre prepares to kill her and before she says her last words, Taichi arrives and saves her in time, as the classic childhood friend would do.
By the name of the following episode I can assume that we will see Aerial again, I hope that this time I cooperate with Taichi accordingly so that he does not end up almost dying like the last time.

Rin wore his magical combo of phreatic explosion, Lemiya too. It was a good episode, but that silly girls, Melo and Milo, almost also die because of their stupidity. It is a relief that Ana is well, I like her character, she is so beautiful. Well done, Taichi, destroyed all those damn goblins, there was no need to call Goblin Slayer, hahaha.

Can you imagine that in the end Taichi has a relationship with Ana? I would like to, but poor Rin 😅.

Not sure what you mean? This is an above average isekai, the milf isekai is also very good and then there is kenja which is the GOAT. Shield hero easy top 5 for most people. Arifureta is pretty good as well if you can get past the cgi Slime isekai is up there as well. I would say this is easily the best year of isekai ever.
