----------------------------------------
Yuusuke and his party is always doing good deed to help others in their adventure. Their quest really shows how selfless they are to help a girl and her village. Also really glad to see Glenda being an active member of their party.

On the other hand, I don't like the mayor of that village. Seems like the type of guy with a full of ego.

Mayor royally angered me lol, and the sharing of knowledge seems to come in clutch with identifying what’s happening! So there’s many parallel worlds that need to be saved, ultimately saving earth?

Genuinely don’t understand how they could calm for something so obvious, especially when they already were on airs about the chief goddamn

Yuusuke’s growth since day one has actually been really good. He’s become a lot more selfless, sometimes to the party’s detriment

For the final bit of the anime our heroes have to save this village but not from monsters like usual. Instead we get a much more formidable creature, an old bag of bones who's trying to cling to the last gasp of power he has left before dying. Its pitiful really, dumb old bastard trying to keep things exactly how he wants them even if it means killing innocent people. Time for Yotsuya and the crew to cut the infection clean off this village. Those parasite wireworms look like the least of their worries, unless a group of them invades while all this hoopla goes on. But for now it's this corrupt geezer causing problems. Yotsuya did open his big mouth too much leading to him and Glen being locked up, so the two strongest heroes are immediately sidelined. Leaving the rest to fall for another trap on that bridge. They gotta somehow turn this around.

Jezzbe mourning over her father was the most emotionless mourning I saw in a while and then she passed out. LOL. Ngl, don't care how average this show actually is, the OST for the same is really good. The new girl feels like an active member of the team now. That's good.

Later on, felt bad for Jezzbe She lost her mother as well and that little kid was traumatized as well. Sadge. If I should say, they're living in pretty bad conditions there. Mayor was just an asshole. Traps everywhere.

These human-induced parasite wireworms sure are a high level danger, even if they're human at the core. That, and for the fact that Yotsuya has done the deed of killing someone, it's a heavy weight on the heart.

Jezby's situation is like the previous Valkedaam arc, but more vulnerable to monsters growing stronger by the day, and people whom took advantage of people already at their wits' end.

The small village of Zaregoth that's hidden in a volcano-like crater, and it only gets worse as children are being abandoned from anyone being sent to this "Journey of Hope" that's more a death sentence. The village chief, old man Cox DiRaio is no better, everything about him just expresses lies and deceit, and trapping Yotsuya and Glenda is but the first step to expunge the same rhetoric.

Will Shindou and the rest be able to see through the village chief's ruse, he's already begun their journey of death. Just how much cheat can this old man come up with at the most obvious.

I wasn't sure at first, but now I'm pretty sure that each mission is a Japan history in a nutshell. Now we're tackling with rural village problem, which in real world is solved by COVID-19 when people flee from big city for a lesser chance of getting infected in countryside, making rural village livelier than usual.

Now I know why there are many players failed in this level, not only it's much harder, but they also get careless by thinking the new mission can't be worse than the previous mission. Even Yusuke let his guard down, a lot!

Parasites that use humans as host. Well, that's an annoying monster to fight against.
They managed to get to the village but got captured by the village head. He was acting suspicious and still did everything that he asked. Well, I thought that they were smart enough not to trust people that easily.

Well the show go from mehh to bad to worse.....its just dumb at this point. They know that the oldman is shady and they have experience of trahison, but no, let follow him in the most obvious trap ever made without thinking, yeah good choice. Plain story, plain character....now that I am this far, i'm going to finish but i dont expect anything from the last 3-4 episodes so.

Yuusuke, who was stoic but clever, is now turning in a self depressing human, who litteraly regret every action he take if he see someone who is not in accord with him....and with that he becoming more and more dumb, because he dont rely on analyse anymore, but more on emotions and the result for the people, pratically the inverse of what he was in the beginning. The Yuusuke of the 3 first episodes of S1 would not falling in this trap.

You can see that like a evolution for him, but from my PoV, it's more like regression so much he loses in the change.

This anime continues to be boring and gets more boring each week.

The only semi-good character is yotsuya, yet everyone around him just sucks. Also, yotsuya falling for this is just showing that the mangaka has no clue how to write characters, as sometimes he's big brain but then sometimes he's an absolute smooth tiny brain.

Oh well, I didn't have high expectations after season 1, so technically I knew it was gonna be bad, but the first few eps of the season gave a bit of hope, but now it's all lost.

The easiest way to make a character appear "intelligent" is by making the others dumb.
The problem is you can not make your whole team "dumb" just to make some trap works by some random dude who is lacking half of his teeth (and is not even smart enough to ask her granddaughter if she has seen other heroes around).

But, I kinda find it funny, that 6 great heroes get rekt by an old man...

(two episode ago they almost fought a dragon, now, they can not fight an old man... almost make me think of FFVII where you're supposed to save the world but can not resist when guard come to arrest you)

I've recently learned that this part is anime original. Manga has chosen the other quest.

Edit: I just read some chapters of manga, and the Fire Mage/Hunter girl is genious compared to what she is in anime. In anime, they are portrayed extra insufficient and dumb than usual.

I am extremely dissapointed in this new author that had to take over because Japan couldn't include a Drug War Arc on television. This mf really downplayed on Yuusuke's and Glen's character and made them dumb as shit. 1/10

Fark man, this is easily the most struggle I've had, watching a seasonal anime right to it's end. I think I've only ever dropped one seasonal as well (Gibiate).

This takes the most boring and crappy isekai award. From the writing to the absolute worst set of characters I've seen in anime lol, what a disaster.

I had hope that after the past two weeks this anime would get better...then this episode happens...and every character turns into a complete fucking Idiot including Yuusuke. Jesus lord dude he was actually okay in the first part of the episode and then his actual character was ruined by spilling the beans about Jezby...and then...to top it off...He follows the Village Chief into a fucking Dungeon and gets locked in...it would be different if he didn't already know that the Chief was a piece of shit...BUT THIS IS INFORMATION HE ACTUALLY KNEW AND HE JUST GOES "Oh la de da let's go check out this secret weapon."

AND THEN THE REST FOLLOW!!!

Holy shit this episode actually ruined all character development imo

bruh, all those talk about the story of village chief by Jezby seems wasted since none of them taking any precautions at all dealing with him. its clear that village chief deliberately leads the villagers to their death, and he might actually the dragon bishop in this quest. I'm expecting one of them to doubt him, but no one did. man, should not skip the manga and just start the Cartel Arc already instead of this.

it's still too early to think this arc is bad (since it's original/maybe non-translated LN), but well Kusue turned Yotsuya (MC) in a bad change, then it ended up Yotsuya and Glenda were prisoned. Also i could see Animation drop there, oh i wonder how about studio current condition there?

Glen helping up Kusue solved her fear, kinda feels sweet honestly. Yuusuke also got a strong point. Though, in the woman perspective, they are always right. Rip Gatsby Jezby father. Well, looks like i am a bit wrong reading up the previous quest. The quest also used such hidden meaning to interpret the true objection. Then, there i before, guessing in loud that the quest shall destroy a horde of zombies in those village. Lmao.

Its not the village as a whole that needs to protect. But that little girl whose lost everything, except the senseless ototo. They are kinda need a huge revolutionary steps ahead too if need to changing up that isolated village way of thinking. Especially if you had the kind of villain village chief with such a sleaky minds. I hope that little granddaughter coming up to rescue Glen and Yuusuke from that obvious prison, judging from her instant admiration toward Glen complement. But, Yuusuke also got a bit out of minds that time, not realizing the obvious trap, and even slip the wrong word to the old man. But oh well, guess this episode tell that sometimes, there's no difference of dumbness, between mc and the rest. Its not because its bad, tho.

So, a fine episode for me to say the least.

Cant believe 3 simple things:

1. How Yotsuya went inside that room WITH Glenda instead of telling her "Let me check it, stay with the old man".

2. How the other 4 believed Yotsuya and Glenda would eat some shit at the mansion instead of returning for them.

3. How the 4 just leave Jezby without any protection after Yotsuya said "Lets protect Jezby from being punished" even when taht old man said he will forgive her, come on, they heard the little boy talking how he acts.

I cant believe this is what happened in the LN/manga.

Yotsuya was completely out of character. The same guy that set up the trap brilliantly in season 1 even if remorseful killing the guard...... the same guy with the EDGY attitude and to the end of season 1 WOULD stand on a million lives over the world....... becomes this self doubting mess.......and would be this stupid to fall for this old man's lame trap that could be seen miles away. The rest of the cast are not bright, but so disappointed with Yotsuya. Season 2 honestly stopped being good after episode 3 :( Story has been falling flat and new characters are bad while making old characters worse.

The characters are all so bland in this series. Nobody has anything resembling a personality.

I shouldn't have bothered with this series its absolute crap. You can see the plot a mile off, especially this episode where everyone just goes along the the old dude.

Kind of a bummer they didn't adapt the Drug War arc, but I'd say it's tolerable, since the arc would be so goddamn rushed if it were adapted only for 4 episodes.

This new arc seems generic and uninteresting so far, but let's just see how this would turn out

Jezby and the Heroes went to Zagroth to understand the mission and what the dangers are and what the real purpose of it all is, but losing her parents is not something easy for Jezby to bear.

In addition, the leader of the village himself does not have good intentions.

The "Heroes" need to act soon (and escape from the dungeon and the quicksand, lol).
