“My name is Shadow. He who lurks in the shadows in order to hunt the shadows.” Man is a chuunibyou through and through. All he needs to say next is, “I am VENGEANCE.”
Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

Such high degree of NPCness! Cid continues being hilarious.

Beta is an adorable fangirl with Shadow and I love her for it.

Not surprising that Zenon was the real culprit. Alexia was right about him all along.

Honestly don't get what everyone is angry about.
It's obviously a huge joke that the MC is a fucking idiot who without knowing founds a secret organisation that spans the entire continent.
How everything that he makes up is actually right all along.

That's just humour.

For some reason people really hate this show for that.

was chanting zenon evil flag this whole episode. and i was right! #vindication.
evil scientist is shit at his job. noooo you have to sanitize the site first! she's gonna die of sepsis :(

MC gets tortured lmao. continues to larp as a normie. epitome of weird flex but ok. something's deeply wrong with him. <3

shadow harem showed up. boring. at least do something funny! notebook girl was getting there but still. smh.
liked the fellow trapped person freeing alexia. wow just like shiso ymir. go girl kill! #based.

alexia loses to zenon. :( noooo feminism loses :(
let's blame the anemia. bestgirl deserves better than this.

and that's a wrap! just noticed the ed changes each episode. i may be stupid.

Again, I am liking it more now that I am judging it based for what it is trying to do. A chunni that died and becomes OP, living in his own fantasy that happens to match up with reality.

I've come to the conclusion that Eminence in Shadow is just Code Geass if Code Geass was a Gorey self-parody without robots.

I cant let them outshine me.. at beeing a minor character!

I am literally on the floor laughing right now, how is he so obsessed with acting like an NPC?

Alpha is back! And I still cant tell if she is just playing along or not.

Does even Cid himself take himself serious? I just cant tell.

The princess is not looking good at all.

4 episodes in and I still can't say a single flaw about it. Might end up as one of best series I've ever watched. Cid is such a beast

Great episode, though it was pretty obvious that the blonde dude was the baddie. But it's always satisfying to see people like those two knights get what they deserve.

I really hope that Cid will not think the Knights who kidnapped the Princess, including her "betrothed", were all... bandits in disguise.
There is a limit to ignorance and naivety. If something is too risible to assume it is not funny, it is ridiculous.
Btw, Cid's obsession with being an average Joe background character -NPC ideally- is funny but unhealthy. Will the Princess recognize him or will this be a Superman / Clark Kent trope with a hoodie instead of glasses?

Yeah we can expect that someone like Princess Alexia would be targeted like kidnapping and stuff.
But man I gotta give it to Cid because his acting is definitely all around above the world.

This series seems to like abduction, we're just on episode 4 but there have been 3 distinct kidnappings in almost each episode, the first one back in episode 1 got abducted twice already.

Ah there's big sis, at least she's still up and about

So the Knight Order are also shit? They might be or at least a faction of them are working in league with our hypothetical villain organization.
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,

LMAO that interrogation scene, he probably doesn't even feel pain, but what he's competing for is who is being the best background character lmao! I love this guy.
So that Zenon guy was a villain

It is starting to be really good ;] I disliked the part with him being tortured, but whatever.. I guess he likes to act weak :D
The best part is that he thinks he made a good lie, but that lie likely became real and the girls know that, but he don't :D

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

One could possibly ask: Why they didnt do anything to search for her sister? Just wait and see?

Lets see if we can know more about the organization, because he is supposed to be his leader. We will see how they get funds, apart from what he can possibly take.
The demon had a feeling/emotion, cause he liberated the princess. She took the torture very good, i dont know if thats because she knows she can heal herself easily, or her mental health is problematic.

I think besides this chapter things are going to get interesting. Even if he wants to be in the shadows, in order to be like that, u need to have a lot lot lot of resources, just like Batman!!
