Tbh, I think they should remove the sound effects from the OP song, except for Arc's laugh.

It looks like Arc made some new friends including a creature he named Ponta and a girl named Marca this episode. Not bad. Despite appearing just two episodes so far, I feel like Arc is very skilled with his speed, healing, defense, etc. The commentary from Arc added some popcorn entertainment in his fight against the basilisk.

Arc is the hero their world deserves.

Well, this episode was rather poor compared to the first one. Arc took a simple quest as a guardian, Marca, the girl who requested for the mission is Arc's new friend. Thanks to her, he met Ponta, a nine-tailed kitsune. After that, it's just one hell of an entertaining figh against a basilik. Seems like there's a bigger threat hiding in the darkness controlling the monsters. The spell he used ''Judgment'' was amazing.

A totally wholesome episode. I had a smile most of this episode. Arc going off to a simple guard job while someone picks herbal medicine plants sounds generic enough but I love how it was handled. Arc guarding a little girl while she tries to help her mom is so sweet. Warms my heart seeing such a sweet girl want to help her mother like that. Marca was absolutely adorable this episode. Her interactions with Arc were very sweet. Arc like a giant uncle helping her out while she picks the flowers. We got to meet basically the creature whom will be Arc traveling companion. The green multi tailed kitsune Ponta. Very cute looking little thing, I'm glad Arc healed it and they're journeying together. Even leading up to the basilisk fight I was invested in this episode, it was just so damn sweet, even though I keep saying that word. But Arc with Marca was total awww moments the whole episode aside from the fight. That basilisk was totally nuts rampaging like that, it has a versatile move set and can cause serious damage like we saw at the end with those soldiers. Arc being able to handle one singlehandedly is even more impressive. Those red rings around the ankle don't seem like a good sign things with the monsters will calm down.

In naruto we have a orange kitsune, here we have a green kitsune, what makes me think where are the other colors?

Simple guardian quest that must have in every isekai anime.
Good episode for opening the plot.

another solid ep.

There are some minor details here and there hinting at something really wrong in the background but it is not related to Arc yet.

The Basilisk hinting at the last episode now makes its appearance and it's really strong, especially that petrifies AoE skill.
I like it when the Basilisk death the collar on its leg disappears hinting this one is under the control of someone.
Ponta is cute as usual.

The man was drinking ale and eating meat already in the last episode, so I'd like to think only his head is without flesh, although him still getting anything down there and being able to taste anything is a mystery xd.

Nice episode again, really like this show so far.

I can tell his animation is CGI but its done quite well and since he is wearing heavy armour it doesnt stand out as unnatural.

The warning in the beginning followed by the family had me worried, ngl.

HEAL!!

Don't worry; its nothing like that. On the contrary, it was actually a pretty wholesome episode. There were also a few hints of some behind-the-scenes players. Curious to see the relevations.

The use of CGI is also quite good.

That was pretty nice for a SOL-esque episode, the fight scenes looked pretty nice as well. I usually don't really care about 1 episode side characters, but this girl and her family were quite adorable. From the promos I thought Arc might end up more edgy because of all the overlord comparisons but he's just a happy dude, I really like that too. Unecessarily forced edginess/hidden anguish/etc for MCs has become quite common and seeing just a normal dude chilling is cool.

The foreshadowing for what's gonna happen next was intriguing, like it so far but I hope they get the plot actually moving next ep.

My Man Arc, has made friends with Go Green Kurama. The episode was kinda wholesome and the fight felt out of place. Element of suspense is the bracelet in the basilisk's leg which poofed out when it died. It was an okay episode overall.

Averagely decent. I like how they didn't skip this side story and made it a summary...
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.

Ponta acquired. Id been seeing him in the opening eps. Our MC trying to play low key and I enjoy the comedy aspect that he single handily slew a raging basilisk and was like keep quite about it, and the episode close was some kingdom forces clocking up there losses for taking down another one. I'm suspecting hes going to find it harder and harder to keep a low profile :)

Here's the lesson, "if you're going to play a fantasy game in Japan don't choose the skull avatar" otherwise you won't be able to enjoy your Waifu if you end up in an isekai transformed into your character

totally opposite characters and situations though, there only real similarities is skeleton + game.

Another great episode! Arc-kun is really strong!

Marca-chan is a great daughter to care for her mother.

DIALOGUE+ ED song here is really catchy. It's on repeat in my spotify.

The song in the Opening is like a background music. Hehe Im hoping they should fix it or is it already permanently like that? It's good song though.

TBH, I think Arc can do more outrageous things while keeping a low profile.

Reason: If there is no witness then nobody will know Arc did this.

Ah the first job for the wandering skeleton mercenary knight, Arc-sama, began, and its about escorting some little village girl to collect some herbs. Lucky, he also manage to pet some cute little green kitsune, which named Ponta, because its tail looks like a tanpopo. Very well, Arc, good name xd.

Everything else is just the same as usual, Arc showing off his skill to one hit the green salamander with hydra skill into its death. Curious whats that red ring means? Someone might be controlling those monsters into rampage. Though, once again, its a nice episode from the skeleton knight and his low profile journey, with the new pet acquired, Ponta. The oped also slowly grow on me, kinda realizing currently that the ed actually comes from Dialogue+...

Alright, enough with that, and really looking forward for the next week.

PelleK's OP with SFX, not sure if that I like that, but it definitely adds to the already banger of an OP.

Arc's first job of collecting herbs in Rata Village, he has to meet the client: a girl known as Marca because it's a request from her mother Seona, and sure feels like an entry-level quest. It sounds harmless at first, but monsters are on the loose...though Ponta the multiple-tailed fox isn't what they expected to see to heal it after it got injured.

The kobumi tree is their destination, but this basilisk-salamander mix is a deadly monster that Arc has a fair bit of trouble dealing with it, so go ahead with immense caution. SASUGA Ainz Arc-sama to defeat the humongous monster, and the fanged board dealt with as a gift to the village for clearing the monster hide.

That can't be said the same for other knights under an army size's worth to slay a basilisk, and Arc is a god lols to defeat within a single strike.

Now I have another Daddy Bone to deal with: the great OP Arc.

They show him drinking booze in a hot spring with Ponta in the opening credits, and he didn't have any flesh on his torso and arms. So maybe his flesh/organs/blood (excluding his bones) are invisible due to the "curse."
