AnarchistCandy said: pretty sure he said "my future wife" so even if he said he will marry her that doesn't mean it has to be now, my guess is Miranjo gonna live with them in the castle till they're both on the age of marriage but if not then yep it's weird lol.How old is Daida?? I can't tell if I didn't realize he was older or if this relationship with Miranjo is just bizarrely inappropriate. |

| Yeah...This anime managed to make me do a complete 180 in regards to Miranjo lol Seeing her full backstory with Bosse combined with what Daida did to bring her back and make her his wife was very heartwarming for me and I hope that she can find happiness from now on Every time Hiling comes on screen I get all the feels, so when she hugged both Bojji and Daida I felt that shit all over my body TwT But I'm happy for everyone in the end and so proud of Bojji and Daida I wanted to know more about the demon-ish king dude from when Miranjo's first flashbacks started, but I guess he wasn't that important since we saw him got killed offscreen by Bosse....The Red Demon child has a very unfortunate curse so I hope that they can somehow save him too Overall, another great episode this week imo....I just wanan know exactly whats gonna happen now in regards to the Underworld King guy and where he's going, because that jester looking guy seems kinda sus to me |
| Great episode! Daida is finally free and though Despa was about to ask the devil for Ouken to be saved, Daida quickly asked if they could save Miranjo which they managed to do! He also.. is going to marry her?! Looking forward to the next episode! |

BlichoBoy said: Was cool, and stuff all the Miranjo revival, but dont that means that when Daida die, Daida soul will be devoured by the Devil? Thats a problem to future selves to deal with. Not at all. You don't automatically get your soul devoured. The devil asks for something in return when he grants a wish. But it's not always the soul. For Bosse, it was half his lifespan. For Miranjo, it was her soul, but that was because Miranjo already broke a promise with the devil. For Daida's wish, the devil got his head back. He won't take anything from Daida. As for the wishes, I think it's because most of the wishes he granted were selfish, which reflected back on him. |

| I found the whole DaidaxMiranjo thing rushed and borderline bizarre. I understand how he's been fond of the mirror for a long time, but all the damage she's done should give him a lot more pause in tkaing this decision. |

| Who wrote this episode... this episode was honestly just terrible. Miranjo caused tons of citizens of the kingdom to be slaughtered by Ouken, encouraged Bosse to steal his new born baby's power making him disabled, killed Boji's mum so Bosse could have another baby who's body he would steal, attempted to murder Hilling, got Dorshe nearly killed and dismembered, almost got the rest of the 4 heavenly kings killed, tried to have Boji killed on multiple occasions, broke criminals out of prison who killed multiple people and died themselves. Despite all of this, the idea that Miranjo was a "good person" was still shoved in our faces, simply because she was nice when she was like 5. Then Bosse has the balls to ask Daida to forgive and protect her... AND HE ACTUALLY DOES, he cared about what his father, who disabled his brother, let that brother's mother die without condemning the person who did it, let the attempted assassinations of both HIS mother and his brother happen, stole his body, and try to kill their own subjects. SO MUCH, that he even decided that she was worth marrying to protect... Daida couldn't care less about all the harm she did, simply because she was kind as a kid.. There's no logic in this episode. I get that typical Shonen do the thing where they just forgive the enemy. But that enemy usually isn't someone who caused so much personal harm towards them, and usually have an excuse, she most certainly does not. also, they don't usually marry them afterwards. |

| tbh this is the episode i was waiting for...i was gettin rather irritated by the rather twisted motivations of bosse and miranjo. I wanted a better understanding of their dynamic or a proper backstory, and this episode provided it making me satisfied. However marrying her is a bit extreme tho 😂 |
StardustReverie said: I agree bruh it looks like the show is tryna come off like it has good writing, dude this is just some naruto shitthey managed to drop the score from a good 7/10 in the first season to a 3 at most this shit is embarrassing |
| Gnyo ho! |
AnarchistCandy said: How old is Daida?? I can't tell if I didn't realize he was older or if this relationship with Miranjo is just bizarrely inappropriate. He's definitely FAR younger than Miranjo. I don't really understand this either... It also comes completely out of nowhere. Like there was no build up or anything. I'm absolutely confused by this decision in the writing... I've enjoyed pretty much everything in the show but... this... |
kerespup said: I find it weird how people are confused as to why Daida wants to marry Miranjo as if it was just a moment's decision. If the opening and the previous episodes didn't make it clear: Daida had grown fond and has always been with Miranjo (as Mirror) for YEARS!!! He wanted to know what kind of woman the Mirror was, and was completely infatuated/in love with the Mirror. After everything was revealed to him, it just made him love her more and accept her despite her flaws. Precisely. I mean, surely Miranjo is a criminal, but Daida, the king, chose to resurrect her and take responsibility for her. It's up to the victims of her crimes to decide whether they forgive her or not. Miranjo will likely spend her life atoning for her sins too. It truly was shocking to see Daida go as far as to wanting to marry Miranjo, but there's more to it than just pure love and shit. People don't always marry for love - what a shocker, right? Plus, some weirdos here may have assumed the two would immediately engage in acts of pedophilia and hence the rage, but I'm certain that won't be happening. The two can wait. I'm sure the age-gap will still result in many foaming mouths however. P.S Miranjo is a Waifu Daida knew since forever. The waifu became real. Isn't it everyone's dream for their Waifu to become an actual wife? :D |

| OK, first of all, the promise with the demon... you are not just going to address it? I mean, they technically did it, but it was a literal 5 seconds flashback. By the way the previous episode ended and Miranjo's own words, I thought it was going to be like a big deal. Admitelly the flashback with Bosse does a decent job at showing their relationship, but just comes too late at this point. And Daida... look, I get he would totally be fascinated by Miranjo, who is a sexy voice in a mirror (Voiced by teh Maya Sakamoto) who praises him constantly, but jumping to marriage? Like what the fuck author? She's like 100 years old and basically his step mom. It's just fucking weird and I don't even think Miranjo would even feel the same way since she spent several decades obsessed with Daida's own father. |

kerespup said: You're confused that people on MAL struggle to grasp simple concepts presented at face value? It's a recurring theme. Not that the writing is all that impressive to be honest, but those saying it made no sense clearly aren't paying attention when they're watching the episodes.I find it weird how people are confused as to why Daida wants to marry Miranjo as if it was just a moment's decision. If the opening and the previous episodes didn't make it clear: Daida had grown fond and has always been with Miranjo (as Mirror) for YEARS!!! He wanted to know what kind of woman the Mirror was, and was completely infatuated/in love with the Mirror. After everything was revealed to him, it just made him love her more and accept her despite her flaws. You could see Daida having empathy towards Miranjo ever since he officially met her inside himself and that's after spending most of the start of the series being infatuated by the mirror and doing everything it was telling him to do. The series definitely lost its charm for me, but it's still enjoyable to an extent. |

| well didn't expected that Daida will marry Miranjo, but ok, also feel bad for Ouken, wish Desha will find the cure in the god treasure but I don't fully trust the man from ranking btw 1 episode left and this journey will end, kinda sad |
rasterman7 said: nice 777th post but pls tell me the brailee meaning in yoursigI did not expect that marriage proposal at all but in a way I guess it makes sense for Miranjo to have another chance, even if not everyone has forgiven her. What I'm more curious about is what will happen to the ranking itself now. Will we have another season that expends on it further? Hopefully that's the case since, so far, it's been great. Ps. Daida marrying miranjo is pucked |
ZXEAN said: She's definitely way older than 16-18. She was already a teen or adult before Daida was ever even thought of, let alone born.Marinate1016 said: Not that much I think it's 16-18. There is no official data so we can only assume.Her physical age yea but mental age is about 25-30, she was in stasis so didn’t age |
| Had a good laugh this episode, whenever the anime takes one minor step forward, it inevitably takes ten massive steps backwards. This anime has taken forgiveness and plot convenience to a whole new level lol, and I thought the writing couldn't get any worse. |

| Dang, would've been cool to see the return of prince Ouken, but I'm okay with saving that for later. At least Despa will be fine; it wasn't mentioned but I'm pretty sure Daida just sold his soul to the devil when he made his wish, he had to have given up SOMETHING at least. |
  NYANPASU  whiskey tango foxtrot |
| So Miranjo was saved from the Demon thanks to Daida, but I wasn't expecting him to claim Miranjo as his future wife. I guess this was the only way that Daida can fulfill King Bosse's final wish even though Desha and Despa's wish to bring Ouken back. With Bosse gone for good, King Desha accepted the #1 spot in the Ranking of Kings and is escorted to the Treasure Room. Only one episode left. |
 |
| This is some cringe development... BEHOLD... 0 CONSEQUENCES - THE ANIME. At least I'm glad to see Daida and Bojji together now, it's been a long time. Guys, don't worry, it's perfectly understandable why Daida brought back and wants to marry Miranjo, dude obviously has the Stockholm Syndrome. Well, Miranjo is cute so whatever. Goddamn this second half plummeted so much That moment when you realize this "Ranking of Kings" they mentioned has almost nothing to do with the story of the whole season, even though the show is named after it... expectations subverted! |

| The Show: We must save Miranjo from the Demon Me: Why tho? Daida: I will marry Miranjo! Me: ExCUse mE WHaT!!! This series really dropped the ball in the second half especially with the Bosse and Miranjo. |
| Fuck Miranjo AND Bosse. I mean I personally can't sympathize with or like any one of them. They're both a couple of selfish bastards. Two wrongs don't make a right. I was vibing hard with the first half of this and was set on giving it a least a 9. But with these past couple of episodes, I just couldn't feel the immense enjoyment I had initially. Probably gonna get a 7 from me just because I love everything else about it except for those two. |
| So, to sum this up: Miranjo committed or otherwise contributed to all sorts of atrocities throughout this series, but because she was nice as a kid she basically escapes with literally zero consequences for any of her wrongdoings. Even her soul going to the demon was undone so ridiculously easy that they may as well have not bothered introducing that plot point to begin with. Just when I thought this second cour was going to redeem itself with last week's episode, it goes and pulls this shit instead. This is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the worst written villains and villain redemption arcs I have ever seen. Also, how disappointing that they also reduced Daida to a mere simp to make this happen, when he'd been a pretty solid character before being locked in the darkness (he seriously feels no negativity towards her about that? none at all?). Truly disappointing, and I'm honestly relieved there's only one episode left of this mess now. Will the titular Ousama Ranking finally become relevant at the last minute, after otherwise having less than no impact on proceedings thus far? |
| Daida's marriage announcements made the whole episode for me |
| One episode left, What a journey for Ousama Ranking! |
 |
| This episode was just a mess overall and a complete buzzkill in the writing department to what the last episode was trying to deliver with some energy for once, although I didn't even love that fight then. The Miranjo stuff felt way too rushed without enough proper build and time for me to be alright with everything that happened here. |
| Its a good ep and all, but how does daida want to marry a 20+ year old Miranjo? Like I understand forgiving her for her past, but that just doesn't make sense. |
| what will happen to daida? will he have to give his soul to the demon? will that be resolve in one episode? |
 |
| Who was behind Miranjo's assassination by arrow when she set up Shillin? It didn't looked like an accident and it's a crucial moment of the show, I can't believe it has been left unexplained. Did I miss a scene? |
| Lmao no what the fuck. Miranjo brought back to life and she’s also going to marry Daida? What a joke. Also, Bosse hands down the worst father ever. I hate him so much. Yeah, didn’t really like the direction this episode took. Also, still didn’t understand the whole deal with the demon. I was expecting more. |

| Daida is finally free. And Miranjo was saved, the fact that he proposed to her was unexpected xD With Ouken, they will still wait and see what Desha will do. And the scene with Hiling was beautiful <3 But well...there's one episode left. |
