Pretty standard strategy of divide and conquer. This episode had all the RPG elements you can fit into the show based on the events taking place in-game.

I have to say though, Maple, Sally and the others have been efficient. Not going to lie, I do like the cute cartoony moments in this episode/show.

Great episode as usual.

I always love these armors and skills in this show. They look awesome.

Yui and May are so cute. :3

Cool snake riding.

Lol at Maple's facial expression.

Hehe. Yui beat her in a card game.

Well this event was easier for the guild than expected all they have to do is rebuilt their dungeon and wait i am wondering if they have to use those canons at all.
Still the girls seem to be heaving fun which is what matters.

Trust Maple to go for the highest difficulty from the get go. Quite the welcome party they ended up getting. First time i seen a giant snake being ridden though. Slime monsters huh tricky opponents that they found underground. Nice moment for the twins to shine though. Iz sure likes to use flashy explosives when she can thats for sure. Using a cave as their base though was a great idea. Iz really outdid herself with the furniture though. The defences that they erected sure were no joke though. Looking forward to seeing how this event plays out.

The 8th Event's main event finally begins, and the monsters are definitely no pushovers coming from the highest difficulty, because Maple Tree could do together in one go. But the rewards this time are much harder to achieve, and spliting up this time is essential as Maple tags with Sally, May and Yui. Both sisters annihilating the slime monsters are just about the same level as Maple on her own, but whatever, they earned their 1st medal.

AS per usual, Maple clears the monsters and obstacles quick, and Iz sets up traps like usual to mark their base. The monsters reappear...but the traps were so thorough that not even flying monsters are able to make through it alive. With everyone's support, Maple Tree is just playing for time forming a trap dungeon that's even stronger than what the game devs made.

Well that's Day 1, this is just the beginning. Let's see on the remaining 2 days.

It's very handy that the main event uses the same map layout as the preliminary round, so Sally's scouting for locations that look suspicious has worked out really well. Getting two silver coins already is a nice achievement, as was seeing the strategies that they came up with.

After that, it was time for them to make a base and a complex dummy dungeon was a perfect location for them to fortify their defenses while thanks to Iz, making the main part of the base look very relaxing and cosy. Maple had me chuckling with her ways of setting up a trap in one part of the dungeon before walking into another area and completely setting off another trap. XD

The result of their traps paid off greatly, as they could reap in the many item drops from the fallen enemies, including the so called "tough" enemies, while also playing cards to pass the time.

Overall, this episode made good progress into the event, but it also felt relaxing with how much fun Maple and her friends had with their base for the event. =)

The main portion of the Eight event begins. We saw the preliminary portion in the last episode with everyone going off on their own with their monsters. Now with the goal changed to collecting these silver medals splitting up only two groups makes more sense they individually splitting up. Sally had good foresight to mark the preliminary map with places that looked suspicious. Each team following the markers to find a monster spawning there. The different monsters in this event are supposed to be tough but for the members of Maple Tree they're not much to deal with. Really cool seeing everyone right alongside their unique monsters. May and Yui with their bears combo double strikes using their hammers. Kasumi snake paralyzing poison. Kanade slime blob mimicking party members. Lots of interesting displays of the party's monsters. Them setting up deep inside a fake dungeon is genius, they can fortify it forever and let monsters trigger their traps over and over until the event is over.

they kinda went a bit overboard with setting up their traps, BUT the sign Sally and the others put up sure warded off any unsuspecting players - except for those monsters who couldn't read lol whether they're playing individually or as a group, they are still strong with a buncha crazy members (I didn't think Iz would be so into setting things off and watch chaos ensues courtesy of the stuff she created lol)

Everything just moves a little too quickly for my liking, and it's lost a bit of it's appeal in this 2nd season. It's a decent sequel.

I like how they can still clear the mission by setting traps to beat the bosses, it's both funny and relatable for some reason, feels like auto mode in mobile games.

One day I hope they animate one of the commenters. It would have been funny if we saw someone or a shadow running from the cave after reading the warning to coincide with the comment at the end.

You can tell that the people who make this really understand what a lot of people actually do when they play video games. Got strong flashbacks of playing Terraria and other games where you hole up and survive by building bases.

Easiest dungeon clear by far lol. Man, Maple and the gang are just too strong for the devs to balance, hopefully a tougher challenge awaits them in the next episode!

Nice episode! I liked the battles the two groups had, especially the second as it had a real cool soundtrack. I wonder what the season finale will be because I don't think the event will last 3 more episode

This episode covers the first part of volume 9, with the volume itself covering the entire 8th Event.

There's a lot to be covered in the 8th Event.

The 8th event begins and some awesome fights have already taken place. 2 medals already obtained. Oh and they've already turned this event into a tower defense game. Every monster that tries to attack gets blown up before they can even get close.

The game devs probably weren't expecting that to happen.

Two medals on the first day, seems like 5 medals in three days will be no problem.
