| Another rescue operation to save elves...at this point, it's like a loop. Elves in this show gets treated like trash. Ariane seems to also trust Arc more and more with each episode. Interestingly enough, Arc also declares that he can never remove his armor. At least she knows what she looks like under the helmet. Not really much development this episode..and imo, felt boring. The only slightly interesting part is showing scenes from the Rhoden Kingdom and their princess. Ariane confirmed to like cute creatures though lol.. |
 |
| It's back to more elf saving...and the so-called infamous SAO "elf rape", really going extreme there. In the town of Diento, after Udolan's failed attempt, it's Lord Tryton's turn to be turned on from his infatuation with elves. Arc literally giving Udolan a forceful kabedon that reveals a hidden room while the elves tortures the Lord all the way through, even Ponta is scared lols. It's a treasure trove of real deep gold to haul, and Arc wants all the money by himself, and more by tricking Ariane into it. The contract between both is done, but the elf kidnapping isn't stopping, so Arc finds a good proposition to go to the elf lands and meet the top brass...that is, if he's willing to show his real unhead skeleton head that Ariane will not turn away from, and he did for a reason (but of course not telling the whole Isekai reincarnation thing). With that, there's common interest and that contract is officially renewed into a bond companionship. It's definitely an uproar in the Rhoden Kingdom, and this is just the terrifying start between the king and his children (older brother Sekt, younger brother Dakares and daughter Yuriarna). The elven settlement of Lalatoya is still aways away, and Ariane getting all fluffed up about Ponta, that's a side that he certainly wasn't expecting to see to tease her. One start leads to another, progression. |
 |
| The CG scenes can be quite bothersome, but at least it isn't as prominent as Ex-Arm so it's fine. |
 |
| Sigh, another rape-y noble. This is what made me not pick up more of the LN tbh. I don’t mind it when it’s there to legitimately advance the story but sometimes shit’s just gratuitous and lazy writing to vilify people. Rest of the episode was decent, nice way to set up the power dynamic in the royal family. Looking forward to next week |

Looking forward to next week Considering the point of showing it, is to show the Nobles aren't just selling the Elves, but also partaking in their you know what. I'd say it does advance the story. Well that’s good for you innit. |

kriissyy12 said: This reply just makes it seem as if, you're just upset over the dark scenes in the show. You couldn't care less about whether they're apart of the story or not, you just don't want to see them. If that's the case, then drop the Anime and move onto to a more lighthearted show. Not reading that sadly, but glad that happened to you, or sorry that happened |
|
| Didn't expect the reveal to be this early tbh, and to be all nonchalant but I guess it wasn't bad either. If anything it just speaks to the honesty and good girl that is Ariane by not being judgmental. There could've been more funny scenes and moments by Arc trying to avoid being caught but at the same time you could say that it would've gotten overused overtime, so maybe this is beneficial as it gives more hope for further character development. I wonder how the negotiations will go down between the elves and royalty, and which of course, will have Ariane and Arc involved one way or another. It could turn to all out war, who knows. I also wonder when we will see Lauren again. and one last thing.... Ariane look cute as hell playing with Ponta haha. |
| Don't worry Ariane, we didn't see what happened. |
 |
| He he, LOOT!!!! I had a great laugh when Ariane officially joined Arc party, if Arc was bad, I guess he could ask " You know the US Plains or the icy Greenland?" . I mean, she is technically canadian. That was a normal reaction to seeing a fluffy animal, so you don't need to change to the "ara, ara" language. |
 |
| I think the world would be a better place if we all Ponta fuzziness to partake in! |

| Something tells me that Prince Dakares is the one behind the elf kidnappings and not Prince Sekt. |
| "You talk too much. Think too much." "I don't care how justified you think your reasons are. I won't tolerate liars or thieves." "If you're not going to be nice to me, don't expect me to be nice to you." "I'm a soldier, not a superhero. Don't ever think of me as one." "The world doesn't revolve around you. Get that through your thick skull." "People who live by their emotions go nowhere in their lives. They only find misery. "If you don't like the way your life is than do something about it instead of sitting there feeling sorry for yourself." "You want something go get it. Period." |

Stop yourself, we've only really had a couple of eps with the elves. And there relationship growth and trust in each other has been nice. If your just going to post negative show titles can we have your boss remove you as its getting boring. |

Maybe stop watching a show you don't like and save everyone the trouble, including yourself All you do is spam every post I make with your comments like I care bro, I promise I do not. Ignore or block. Simple. And if you were able to read, you’d see I never once said I didn’t like the show, not liking a certain aspect of a show doesn’t mean you don’t like it. Again, stop whinging and just block. |

| There were a lot of great moments in this episode, Arc blending in with the armor not so well but I didn’t notice him until the screen shifted lol, Ariane giving the lord the hickory nut crunch, Arc disguising his robbery as preventing the organization from being reestablished, and my favorite moment was when Ariane couldn’t resist Ponta’s fluff lol, perfect showing of the cute side of Ariane. And thankfully Arc can finally show his skeleton face to someone, being Ariane. I figured at some point he’d be able to show it to her giving how much he’s helped her already. And lastly, even though it was brief, really liked the fishing bit lol, I’ve been doing some fishing myself lately and seeing it in my anime is always nice. |
| The elves are important but they can be kidnapped if their pact is in danger, at least Arc has revealed his secret and so, in order to help them, he has already started his journey, let's see what he will meet when he enters his village. |
| Great episode! I’m glad to see Ariane being fine when she saw Arc’s face xD. And Arc sure did get a lot of good… Looking forward to the next episode! |
| AISHITERU...REM! |
| We got to see the royalty this episode, and it seems like there's a bad egg among them. Arc is as boisterous as always. The ED still slaps. Definitely one of the best this season. |

| This is so dumb and lame that it's funny again, lol. But I swear, some genuinely fucked up shit instead of the vanilla beating around the bush would make the show legit. It's supposedly R rated and yet I've seen kids shows which had more "action" than this 💀 |

| Dance Dance Danseur's bullying scenes felt way more darker than this. Setting that aside, the mini-plot of "save the elves" seems to be part of a larger plot of kingdoms, slavery and stuff. The power dynamics of the royal family also does seem pretty interesting. Good set-up; hopefully it pays off. Also, just me or was Ariane also CGI at times? |
 |
| I don't really get all the rape-y scenes, feels more like the author has a fetish than these having any actual significance to the story. It's really not that dark of a story, and these scenes aren't really presented in a way that should be particularly disturbing, if anything there's a clear suggestive quality to them, but at the same time they're pretty tame. I don't know, it's just one of those shows where it feels like the tone is all over the fucking place. |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |
| Heh should've been burn that shitty cunt cartoonish noble into crisp for real, or just showing me what those elf women did to him and it will be much better. Need more violence than that xd. Though by how Arc collecting the noble stashes actually some kind of a nice way to put an end to his shitty takes. Hopefully its the end of the deal, but i am afraid its may continue to another messed up moment for Arc, and Ponta. Then that's it, moment of truth, Arc revealed his skeleton identity! But, Ariane reaction truly was not what i think before. At least the bond already forged quite nicely there! Alright, getting some world building expansion plot, by how they introduced the western kingdom name and then with king himself and all of his child. I suppose to believe that they may be meeting with Arc and Ariane, sooner or later, either its means good or not for the skeleton knight. but from now on, with Ariane moment for not able to resist Ponta cute and fluffiness kinda be a fine note near the end. Lets see what kind of darkness they get in store on the next episode.... |

Lazy_watcher said: DirectorK said: Something tells me that Prince Dakares is the one behind the elf kidnappings and not Prince Sekt. I don't think so, from some of the scenes you can see Sekt is the cunning type, Dakares is the arrogant noble classist type. Dakares might only see ok someone attack and hurt his country noble aka an attack to the ruling class so he riled up and he seem like the type who is an idiot and racist. Sekt for me is the type who will do anything to achieve his goal, the more dangerous type. by hunting the elves, they push themself into risk of hurting the relationship with the world cause Elves seem to have the monopoly over magical item and crops improvement rune, and that will hurt the position of the first successor in line the most. Also, with the relation with the elves broken, the country will need something else to replace it as its shield from other countries, I think there is a bigger party playing a part here and work with Sekt. My bad, I got the names mixed up. I thought Sekt was the second prince and not the first. You share the same view as I do, but I like to add a few things myself. 1. You're correct about Dakares. Arrogant? Yes. A racist? Maybe. A kidnapper and a rapist? No. I just don't see that from him. His arrogance can be described as stubborn pride for the noble class. His prejudice against the elves could be described as youthful ignorance. 2. Sekt is indeed more cunning and the more dangerous type. The fact that he gives a smug smile not once but twice in that scene seems to prove it. That's the look of someone who's plotting and thinking, "Everything is going as planned.". It honestly feels as though Sekt wants to start some kind of conflict with the elves in order to gain more power. I also think he wants to remove anyone who can challenge him to the throne so he can have all the power himself once the King dies. If he's the one behind the kidnappings he could set up Dakares. He knows that his younger brother is arrogant, impulsive, and seems to greatly dislike elves, and he could use that as a way to get rid of Dakares. And who would question him? Probably not his father and definitely not his sister, who shares the same opinion but is blind by loyalty. Sekt the heir after all. He's the very image of a noble prince, whereas Dakares is not. 3. When Princess Yuriarna's maid says, "Once Prince Dakares is cast down, the throne will eventually be yours or Prince Sekt's." notice her body behavior. She appears excited, even eager. Yuriarna of course brushes if off a careless remark but if you really thought about it the maid looks as though she's hoping it will happen. Wants it to happen. Expects it to happen. Makes you wonder if she might actually be a spy working for Prince Sekt. Could even be his secret lover for all we know. |

| Arc was like, I'm going to steal all your stuff and was quickly sugarcoating it. Not that he's wrong. It was obvious that Ariane wouldn't be able to resist Ponta. But who could blame her? |

| Damn I almost ejaculated from some elf rape but it wasn't long enough, was hoping to see those elves cry and weep from their shameful rape. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I don't wanna be THAT guy but I'm kinda sick of the elf rape... That aside good episode. Also like how the marquis got his just desserts and a lowkey S&M from him and Ariane that was also impressive. Lastly Ariane is becoming waifu of the season (yes I said it folks a seasonal waifu) |
| The way they "punish" these rapists is reaching Shield Hero levels of silliness. They behave like criminals, yet are treated like naughty children that have yet to mature. It's like the story doesn't know what it wants to accomplish in terms of tone with these scenes. I'd rather see the author go balls to the wall with the dark fantasy stuff. Otherwise, just stick to the typical fantasy stuff instead. That's better than attemping to be edgy to raise the stakes, just to play it off as a joke. That's the difference between good "edge" like Berserk and... looking merely goofy and chuuni. Which might work with some other elements of the story, but not this one in particular imo. When it comes to everything else though, thankfully I'm pretty happy. While it's not a revolutionary story by any means, the execution overall is pretty good and that's what counts most. |
| Solid episode, Ariane cuddle ponta is so wholesome scene, and again "almost r*pe scene" again, ah man, i think its h genre but nah also cant wait to see Princess that arc save at first episode, she probably help arc in negotiate with 3rd princess. cant wait next week! |
| You gotta wonder how many people are actually upset about the near rape scenes or are just virtue signaling for some clout. People in high power doing shitty things, color me surprised. And this talk about "not moving the plot forward", cool, you read that somewhere online and took that stance for yourself lol, as if that now makes rape/near rape scenes alright or not. I'm sure you could argue almost every rape scene "moves the plot forward" in some way, like somebody already has in this thread. It's a scummy fantasy world and has disclaimers at the beginning of each episode, the moaning every episode is pretty funny. We need more scenes like this in anime, that portrays brutality in all it's glory. |
| LMAO Arc tries to justify robbing the gold and Ariane actually believes it! I also like how Ariane just can't resist Ponta's cuteness. |
| What would be just another iseaki is saved by Arc's true intentions and his character. This man is hard carrying this show like a Fornite sweat. Also, the whole rape thing is getting boring now. Can we knock it off with the shock value? |
| I haven't updated in years but now I have changed that. I'll be free soon. |
| Jesus, this show really cannot go through one episode without a rape scene lmao. I really liked that Arc revealed his face just like that, no bullshit, just trust. Ariane and Ponta were super adorable. I too want to partake in Ponta's fuzziness. |
 |
| Looking at a cute girl flirting with a fluffy animal is a feast for our eyes. But we would recoil at the sight of her taking a deep sniff at it. |
