I'm happy for Myuu, seeing she's able to be together with her mother again.

Shia somehow became the center of jokes again. On a serious note, I'm somewhat impressed by the magic levels of Hajime's friends. He and Kaori had some cute chemistry though this episode imo. They should get more screen time together.

That undersea dungeon was a very tough one. Even Hajima cannot handle it.
Keep your chin up! Believe in yourself, Kaori. You can do it!

Hajime your cold blooded dawg. But yeah Kaori needed to hear that, hopefully she responds in a positive way next episode. also it felt weird seeing a harem protag being that real with his harem. Almost kind of refreshing.

So awesome, just reading the LN and just got passed this part. Btw I just saw the Author said the LN is ending 😫😭, that sucks. figured he'd keep going considering the Anime might boost the popularity.

Well there might be LN of the afterstory... which is already on WN version, and it's great (albeit not in proper time sequence).

Nice, yeah I read part of it. I REALLY would love to see that in Anime form but considering it doesn't seem to be very popular I won't hold my breath. Hopefully the better animation of Season 2 and seemingly a more cohesive story might help get us more seasons. 🙏🤞

Also, I was looking forward to this and next episodes due to the inner-conflict of Kaori that we saw. As a LN reader, it was definitely amongst my favourite parts of Vol. 5, if not the most favourite. Looking forward to the resolution now. And props to Hajime for giving it straight to her while not being too aggressive. Just gave her what she needed to understand.

Yup. If we could get another season after the disaster that was S1 (IMHO), S3 must happen now.

Hajime plainly rejected Kaori's old and sincere feelings for him, I can't believe he did that. I was actually hoping for the two of them, ugh... 😔😥
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

No, he only made it clear that Yue will be special to him no matter what happens. And if she can't stand that, she should distance herself from him. Shea was a perfect example, as she went from being a punching bag to being a comrade. But if Kaori gets too hung up on comparing herself with Yue negatively, she'll only bring herself and the team down. Basically, she has to either take the relationship in stride, or leave the group, for everyone's sake.

I mean, yeah (I probably worded it out wrongly) but Kaori will never be that kind of "special one" like Yue for Hajime. he is saying Kaori will never be no. 1, that's actually what I'm sad about. 😔

Anyway, I can't wait what kind of answer Kaori will give to Hajime.

Oh I can understand. But I like it better, and that wouldn't have changed even if Kaori was my favourite instead of 3rd favourite. He's decisive about it, unlike your typical harem MC.

And yes, I have read the next part, and I can guarantee you it'll be a pretty good answer!

Myu is back with her mother, and that's where her section of the story ends while Hajime and gang with Kaori continue on with their conquest into the Sunken Ruins of Melusine.

The usual hijinks ensue of "weak" monsters and the harem of girls wanting to inch closer to Hajime to occupy Myu's position...well except for one, the slime regenerating monster that feels close to the usual Great Labyrinth standard that gave everyone a great deal of trouble.

An uncommon ally of a spatial divide separates the gang, and they're not out of the Labyrinth just yet. Both Hajime and Kaori experienced quite the illusion of a ship wars re-creation, which is the concept of this Labyrinth's Liberator. On the topic of Kaori's affection to Hajime, it's very clear that Hajime always valued Yue, and as more females like Shea and Tio came along, they've become comrades, but Yue will always be his saving grace of survival to love wholeheartedly. Kaori literally stood no chance from the very beginning.

Try as you might, Kaori, to the best you can.

Hmm some dungeon exploration with the group but of course it wouldn't be that easy, though Hajime is really harsh with Kaori even though it's quite deserved since she always devalues ​​herself and isn't too useful in the group compared to the other one... well yeah, Yue is the ultimate winner from the beginning

She had her chance and blew it. Hajime had a life changing experience and she is lucky she is even part of of his new life or anyone else associated it with that event. With Kaori so indecisive, how can you trust that? It nearly killed him the first time.

Yue has the personality of a door knob

Kaori got her heart crushed but it was going for it, but i believe maybe in the future we will see something but who knows.
If she wants Hajime to notice her then she gotta do her best.

Oh and also, Kaorie doesn't know 1/1000th of what Hajime went through by himself and later with Yue.

How the hell does Kaori have 2000+ favorites? She is by far the worst character so far in this series. Jesus and the fact that Hajime lays the truth down on her made this episode better. Which wasn't hard because this episode was boring AF.

Give me more Shizuku. She's awesome.

He's talking about the current situation, not what happened before. She was constantly being self-reproaching, and that wasn't helping anyone. The past had nothing to do with what he said. If anything, he accepted her in the party because he was grateful for her care. But because he is grateful, he understands this attitude she has is only negative for her.

because LN. Anime S1 skipped almost all of Kaori's scenes in the anime, so she looked liked some harem member that joined after being reunited with MC when it's much more than that. Also, I think it's cuz of Kaori's character in the LN after this. Not sure since I only read volume 1-4 (which S1 covered and rushed to fuck)

One of the top five anime rejection I have ever seen. I honestly don't like any of the girls, except maybe sensei but even that is debatable. Yet when that uppercut of a rejection came even I felt bad for Kaori.
I was expecting to see her fans here but surprisingly she isn't very well liked. Oh well.
It's unique that the MC has picked a girl but I don't know, I don't dig Yue's superiority complex. She should learn from Dia in The world's best assassin.

This labyrinth was tricky for the gang with the slime and illusions in the end.

Hajime was brutally honest with Kaori and said what was needed. But the way he went about it was too harsh. :(

Some of the water & fights were quite good.
Refreshing & rare to see a harem get real. Liking how Hajime tackles relationship issues head on, none of that dense avoiding typical mc. Hope Kaori makes a choice or grows.
Cool each labyrinth got a concept but kinda vague still... reenact history thru magic.

Although I agree Yue is the best girl, but i hate how Hajime treat Kaori in the end. It just made me sick. If you think about Kaori's sincerity, even when Hajime was still a loser, she just don't deserve that treatment. He's being too harsh.

This was a really good episode, but there were some things I wish they spent a little more time on. The whole ship scene was a pretty vital part of explaining the past between the human and demon races. They might not be finished with explaining it though and will start it in the next episode since we’re not at a specific part in the LN though. Otherwise, the whole thing with Kaori feeling weak and defeated was done decently, do with they went a little in depth with her inner dialogue, but it’s still good. And Hajime being both harsh and caring by giving Kaori a reality check. Simple: you either accept the hardships you’ll have to go through, or you leave. Def love this episode
