| Melty is kind of a background character in this season so far, hardly noticable but it's great that she got some spotlight this time around. Plus, I believe it's about time she finally decided to get stronger. I didn't think she was weak but Melty did need a character improvement. Also, there's some info dump on underground gambling. Not fun seeing Malty again in the show though... |
 |
| So the bow prick is next Good to see one more person being on Naofumi's side regarding Bitch. Really looking forward to Rishia destroying Itsuki next episode. Wonder what's Myne gonna do then with no heroes to manipulate. |
 |
| We finally get to know what's been happening with Itsuki. With Melty wanting to level up and Filo, and Melty having a pile of work, Naofumi instructs Filo to undergo leveling up to compensate for her reduced level, and he also includes Melty in the process. Melty is currently under-leveled because of her responsibilities managing Eclair's territory. In the meantime, S'yne comes back from the underground arena with a story about a strangely familiar newcomer. This fighter, known by the alias Perfect Hidden Justice, wields a bow. Following that, Naofumi discovers that it's none other than Itsuki and decides to approach him. Now, this is what I've been waiting for – Itsuki's shot at redemption. I really hope they don't rush through his redemption arc. You know, this is the guy who told Rishia she was worthless and should die. Resolving that in just two episodes feels like it's not giving the whole matter the serious consideration it deserves. Tbh Rishia does not even need Itsuki. Here’s to hoping that Rishia beats some sense into this guy. |
 |
| This repetitive thing is boring af, so cringe, so naive, so blind and dumb. My expectation for this series is going lower and lower by each episode released. |
 |
| This show feels stuck in a loop. Everything needs to come back to Bitch manipulating one hero. At this point makes everything feel repetitive and no reason to pay attention to what's happening. Is Rishia going to win? That should be stupid but they already played that past season when she was the only one capable of fighting Kyou. |
| Waifus only represent ideals |
| Even back then Itsuki was a jerk. Seems Filo gained a new past time as a result of last arc as well. The fanfare for Melty as she left for the mandated levelling up session was amusing. I mean after being ambushed plenty of times by his sis Fohl gettinf extra training is long overdue. As someone that Bitch harmed with her lies Ren's words carried powerful weight. Too bad Itsuki was just so stubborn and self centered to accept them. Though his own party members conspiring with Bitch was quite the surprise. Overall i have to say i really enjoyed this ep because it had Rishia and her quest to save Itsuki as its focus rather than simply focusing on Naofumi. Being able to see how far the support characters have come is equally important from a narrative POV. Curious to see how her fight fares next ep. |

| Itsuki being stupid as always, can't wait to see what Rishia will do against him |
 |
| Why am I stuck taking care of a girl whose life goal was to get into the Bow Hero’s pants? Bitch has found her way to Itsuki at last. Much like Spear, Bow's allies also came to disrespect him after losing to the Spirit Tortoise, but they keep him around as a useful piggy bank. It seems that Bitch also has a plot to sell Itsuki into slavery and maybe steal some of Naofumi's slaves while she's at it. Fueeeehhhh continues to cement herself as second worst girl by insisting on proving her value to this assclown. He's not worth your effort! We're left on a cliffhanger with Rishia and Itsuki about to fight, but the real burning question is: Who is Bitch going to run to once she's exhausted all the heroes? |

| And the award for worst written anime villain of all time goes to Bitch, like how the fuck does she keep on getting away with it? How did Bow Hero not think "hold on, she claims the Shield Hero, the Spear Hero and the Sword Hero all raped her but I've been with 2 of those people and it doesn't seem likely at all"? Does Bitch have some kind of hypnosis magic or something that causes men to lose their braincells around her? |
 My biggest regret: Reading all 200+ chapters of Kanojo, Okarishimasu |
| I love how Naofumi and Ren become good friends and work together and agree each others more. (￣▽￣) Of course Itsuki being a prick as always especially hurt Rishia away like that. (￣□￣」) What's unbelievable is how 'Bitch' and Itsuki's Party decided to work together. (￣ヘ￣) Can't wait for the next episode for Rishia going to kick Itsuki's butt!  |
 [/url] |
| An enjoyable episode, and it ended with a good cliffhanger too! It's a shame that Season 2 looked so bad, considering how crucial the Spirit Tortoise arc was in kick-starting the character development for the other three heroes. I still find it unbelievable how everyone falls for that manipulative princess's lies, especially after witnessing the trial firsthand. How do all three heroes still buy into her deceitful tactics? It boggles my mind. She essentially seduces and manipulates them with sweet words, uses them dry, and then discards them. I haven't disliked a character this much since Iriza from Candy Candy... and that's saying a lot XD |
 |
| Welp, this season's gone down the drain too. Still not as bad as 2 but its really trying to catch up... Or catch down? |
| It was okay. Thats it. Clifffhanger was good tho. |

| I wish Rishia would stop her obsession with the bow dude already. |
| you are saying heros who have higher rank than royalty and all four of them got/getting swindled by a mere ex princess and the queen is still not sending an army not just that this is an international problem what the heck are the other countries doing this is no longer a national issue like all four heros were victim if they spare malty this time ill be dammed |
 |
| Time for Rishia to get her shine. Itsuki saved her life back in the day and it’s time to repay the favour. Everything she’s been working on mentally and physically has been leading up to this moment. Really crazy how Malty is just playing each hero like a fiddle one by one.. she knows just what to say to appeal to each of them. Kind of a chill set up episode. Excited for these next couple of eps Rishia trying to avoid slipping back into her usual manner of speech was cute! |

| So we finally meet the Bow hero once again and he's definitely going to get his ass kicked in the next episode. Hopefully with smooth fighting animation like the last episode, because episode 10 has a shoe string budget. I hate bitch not because she's a bad character but because she's such a poorly written character. There is no way no matter how low someone is to be able to trust this woman. Everyone has to have the intelligence of an infant and the memory of an Alzheimer's patient. I also thought Itsuki's party had left him but NO apparently they're in on screwing him over for money too. Like wtf he acted like he they abandoned him and he never wanted to see them again. By far the worst of the trash heroes pity party sad backstory. Also why did Nafumi bring a bunch of kid's along? What was the point to make money or something. Because haha Naofumi is greedy haha. How pointless its just more characters for the poor animators to draw. |
| I'm honestly fed-up with these heroes at this point, or more like this same rinse repeat approach. Okay we know they've fallen, but do they need to meet Malty and get manipulated by her in the EXACT SAME WAY the last one got????? No, right? Not sure for how long we'd have to suffer with Malty in this series, as I mean her deal got stale back in the first season itself, but somehow the author has managed to keep her relevant in the story even after coming this far smh. |
 |
| I've finally realised that this is one of those shows that should've stopped at season one. Why tf are we re-doing the Bitch "manipulation" plot for a 4th time... It's just bad writing at this point. She's a boring antagonist. The trial wasn't enough? The Queen denouncing her wasn't enough? Betraying the Spear Hero? The Sword Hero falling for her was a bad enough joke, but we're seriously doing it a 4th time with the Bow Hero... Waste of another episode. |
| bruh... the author literally had Malty/Bitch trick 2 heroes in a short spam, considering that besides Naofumi she already tricked the Spear hero as well. That's so boring, ngl I was reading the manga and I was so excited with the whole tournament and Sadeena becoming a part of the crew, but the story became so bad. I understand Rishia's appeal, but the way she reverences the Bow hero is so pathetic for her. |
| Is every Hero really that dense against manipulative women, even after every Hero telling them to stay away from her? One dude saying I can get why they would have doubts, but all 3 of the Heroes told him to stay away from the harlot. At this point just end her, she is actively making things worse everywhere, but I guess the show will be devoid of despicable antagonists to keep it up. If they dont end Bitch, Im seriously thinking of dropping the entire show. Its constantly stuck in repetitive plots and characters that overstay their welcome, while completely ignoring the larger world plot (or executing it badly). |

| Oh wow, the studio remembered that Keel is a girl! The big reveal happened off-screen, as usual... |

My Candies :  |
| All 4 of those heros are just so dumb but got to hand it to Malty for destroying all 4 of them |
 |
| of course i gotta wait a week to see rishia and baka-itsuki face off. but damn, somebody reign in Bitch coz she is completely off her rockers now. but i have a feeling Bow Hero will be won over and she is yet again without a hero to manipulate. unless Spear Hero is still as gullible as ever and come crawling back to her and do her every bidding. but i wanna see Rishia teach baka-itsuki a lesson and show off how much she has grown since joining Shield Hero's party! |
       |
| Fucking hell. They seriously copied the same storyline for Sword Hero from 3-4 episodes ago but with Rishia taking Eclair's place. This show's writing is reaching new lows I didn't think were imaginable... christ. |
| I will laugh if after this arc, the other Heros get sucked into following bitch again. This might be the poorest story writing regarding a villain I have ever seen. But I have to give this show some credit, when I thought they wouldn't dare repeat a Season 1 Arc 3 times in this season but then it gets revealed that they have done so, I laughed harder than I had for any Anime this year. |

What the hell is going on with the art this episode?  |
| Heck yeah let's go I hope Rishia tears the bow guy to shreds |

| So the bow hero is the next to be taken in by Princess ... Bitch. Geez she's so easy to hate, I think S3 is only better because she's such a great villain. |
 |
| I see the cry babies are still out in force. Human garbage at its finest. |
