Damn, that Ruti girl is scary, definitely someone to watch out around with when she has that dark look in her eyes...

It's cool they kept the violence without much censorship. On other hand, I think it's also cute to see more of Rit and Red chemistry together on screen. Much more curious about what kind of role Ruti will have in this series. So far, she has my attention at least from the personality and skills she's shown.

The most boring thing is when you create a shop but there are no customers, xD. If your shop sells something that can expire, it will rot if it doesn't sell, therefore customers are also important :") If this potion and medicine expired then... Rit only heard rumors from the guild and managed to find Red. And even Rit just realized that Red was in Zoltan.Known as a military force, the second Princess of the Loggervia Kingdom. And yeah thei name almost similar, lol Rit or Red. Rit asks if they are okay with Red being left behind. Red says they have defeated the four heavenly kings of the Demon Lord, Gandor. Rit and Red were just chatting and yeah the tea seem delicious. Eiyuu Ritto? Are u sure about that, They enjoyed a bonfire together and they talked about pride and Loggervia.



Really like Tsundere, lol... An amazing fight with orc, and yeah imouto too op, xD. Rit wants to work in this shop? Hmm...It seems with those oppai I'm sure Red's shop will get a lot of customers. "Red & Rit yakusouten" Even Rit had thought of the name of the shop for the two of them, lol. Red is not looking for workers but Rit insists, Rit says if Red is picking herbs Rit can replace Red to look after the shop. Okay it's time to Potion explanation, lol... What is Fueru Potion? They make potions by mixing different types of potions, it's hard did i miss something... And yeah being The potion maker had to be genius, end of this eps~

I still love Yui Nishio's OP wholeheartedly, so soothing.

So the 2nd Princess of Loggervia, Rizlet, is here to see Red, disguised as an adventurer, and she's a real beauty who's ran away from her royal family due to the usual family struggle over the throne.

Gideon (Red) and Rizlet's (Rit) backstory was amusing to see though. Rizlet with her smug face is nice to watch while Red was with the Hero party (with Ruti and the rest), and for someone who's a literate tsundere with her true feelings (love that pout though), Red maintains his stance while Rit hampers with her childlike feelings, these 2 really hit it off together, and I love it. Even against enemies internally and externally, the Hero's party doesn't let up with Ruti's dark stare of kuudereness. But for Rit, her mental breakdown is elusive, and Red's pep talk managed to get her back on track.

The frenetic back-and-forth arguments between Red and Rit, they're like a couple lols. The potion making scene with the Tetris background, you know the staff are having fun making this show. The start of Red and Rit's pharmacy life, OR MORE LIKE MARRIED LIFE.

The Hero's party has found Gideon's replacement: Tisse Garland, and what she'll help in the party under Ruti's command, I'm looking forward.

This is leaps and touches beyond last season's Cheat Kusashi, really enjoying this "Slow Life" even more.

Rit is really cute. I like her. I've one problem... WTF is wrong with this anime and the name of the characters... everyone sounds so similar... Red, Rit, and Ruti... It's so confusing. I've misspelled them several times now. It's so annoying. Looks like Rit is gonna help Red in his pharmacy shop. She's gonna be there at the shop when Red's away. So Poggers for him, I guess.

Other than that, it was a fine episode. I'm still not completely sold out on this new Pharmacy Isekai trope completely yet but we'll see. So far, really boring.

Lot of backstory moments between Rit and Red for their previous activities, and she really wants to move at his place to work she's fun xD the last scene with the group is creepy though, it doesn't sounds good at all

You know it's really hard to focus on the characters of this show, when "Rit" literally means Ass in my language.

Kind of 50/50 on this show. On one hand I like a nice SoL show set in a fantasy world, on the other it feels like they're trying to ram in some unnecessary action. Pick a theme and run with it imo, the show doesn't seem sure what it's trying to do.

To give the show some credit, I really like the pleasant opening and ending songs. It's actually really nice to listen to while in a relaxed mood like I am in now after coming back from my lecture at uni. Definitely one of my favorite opening songs of the season at least, maybe for ending songs too and there are not too many songs that I've actually enjoyed hearing this season so fair play.

The rest of the episode didn't really do much for me, Red's pretty boring so far and I wish there was more color with his adventures with Rit in the past, to make those flashbacks genuinely fun to listen to. Now that Rit's joined the pharmacy and is staying with Red, hopefully that pharmacy picks up some customers now. Need more focus on that though since it felt too much in the back for most of the episode. The atmosphere is sort of comforting but the content doesn't really offer much, might as well be background noise so far.

Don't care whatsoever for the stuff outside the main part with Ruti and the others. I really hope that stuff is minimal and limited.

The chill opening and ending song combined with the chilly vibe this anime gives off. Just the right time to watch. The backstory was quite interesting. The potion making scenes arre adorable far better than the other isekai from summer 2021.

1) The sound track is spot on. The music really hits it just right all the way through, even when it suddenly isn't there at all. lol!
2) Given what we've seen so far, current and flashback, while Red desires a slow life on the frontier, is that really gonna be what happens? Something to consider, I'd say.

Ares is an ass.
Mr. Crawly Whaly is cute.
Rit... has vast tracts of land.

The episode did a good job of introducing Red and Rit's history without being too brief or dragging it out too much. Also it's got great music and the atmosphere is really soothing and peaceful.

This show is really great. I love the chemistry that the MC and Rit are creating. Can’t wait to see how they grow together. The hero doesn’t feel very hero-y tho. Something may be up with her, mind control by a demon lord or something?

It's definitely not a true slice of life. My issue with this series is they're cramming too many chapters into each episode, which is making it very jarring. We're only two episodes in and we're on chapter 7 of the manga, but also not. It's jumping back and forth, taking a page or two from one chapter, skipping another entirely and going to the next, then returning to a previous chapter, etc. Very jumbled.
I reject your reality, and substitute my own.

At this rate, it wouldn't surprise me if we meet Rit's brother, the crown prince, and he's going by Rod or Rudy or something like that, lol.




Now, as for the hero, Ruti, I wonder if we'll see the emotionless Hero start going a bit too far down darker paths without her prophesied Guide. Seems to me like the Guide's job was more to keep the Hero grounded in her humanity than to actually fight.

Really disappointing episode. Felt a lot different than first one imo. Rit seems rather boring and her cuteness and flirting/compliments feels kinda forced. I also don't care about hero or demon lord - I'm here for SoL.
Let's hope EP3 is better...

Rit being royalty sure was a surprise. Though her desire to be free rather than be chained down with being a ruler is understandable. The insight into how Rit and Red met back then and their first interactions sure was fun to see especially the bribery with cookie's scene. Infiltrating the enemy's camp by using the skin of a trusted advisor sure was a cunning move on the enemies part. Still losing every one of your friends and comrades in one battle sure is tough. I can't fault Rit for losing heart. Still its nice to see Red being bad at things as well. A powerful adventurer thats also fallible as well is easily relatable. After all this time its nice to see the two who had forged such strong bonds in the past be back together. Though moving in straight after was a tad fast i think. But given her obvious feelings for Red perfectly understandable. On the hero side of the story Tisse sure is the most polite assassin i ever seen. Overall an enjoyable ep that did an excellent job of expanding upon Rit's character and the origin of her feelings towards Red. Looks like the story will be split between Red's portion and Ruti's portion by the looks of things. Off topic Ruti's emotionless face that she shows when slaying enemies really was scary.

Lmao she is awesome and definitely a sexy character, can't wait to see their interactions together. Seriously though I know she's cold now, but WHY if she loved her brother would she let those assholes banish him? She is THE best one they have and could probably throw her weight around and say go F yourself my brother is staying. I seriously hate his former party so much.

I don't quite get Shin no Nakama. It's got a fine story, decent background art, and a decent OP/ED, but the foreground art is subpar. It tries to be "titillating", so I can see the influence of the Peter Grill studio, Wolfsbane, but there's a disconnect between the fine backgrounds and the underwhelming forground animation.

They're partnered up with a studio I've never heard of, Studio Flad, so perhaps therein lies the dichotomy. Pairing the animated sprites with the static backgrounds seems to be the central problem. It's a matter of perspective.

This show went from very promising, to probably gonna drop next episode.

The next few episodes they better become a couple, get it over with and continue with a story. This better be not another forcefull tsundere meets oblivious MC summing up 90% of the show series.

Not gonna lie.. the 2nd episode wasn't as much enjoyable as the 1st one..
The 1st episode had the feeling of "mystery" etc.. this episode went a bit too into "Rom-com" and wholesome stuff imo..

Not to say.. i did enjoyed Rit's moment.. and her backstory a bit..

The animation and art of this episode and Rit's design reminds me of so many hentai's.. i can't even count them on my fingers lmao

Nice episode! Feel sorry for Red dreaming of opening his shop and when it finally is, not having any customers xD. As expected of the hero, Ruti, slating that multi armed monster so easily. That look in her eyes with blood on her face was very dangerous also…. got some yandere vibes there. I really like Red and Rit’s chemistry also. That awkward silence and then Red’s realisation of what Rit just said about moving in was funny. Happy that Rit and Red will the shop together too. Looking forward to the next episode!

I found Rit to be kinda obnoxious and overly pushy; plus why's a big shot princess coming out to the boondocks to live with a pharmacist? It feels very contrived but at least they established a history between the two which could explain why she's in love with him. Still, downhill from the decently promising first episode so I might end up dropping it down the line.

It's also gonna be one of those shows where I give 0 fucks about the hero party..
