Touka taking on this expedition mission to the ruins seemed sketchy at first.

This episode in general just had an eerie vibe from the beginning although it looks like Touka isn't intimidated by the guys talking down on him. I guess Touka still has a hard time trusting others although the woman he was working with didn't seem like a bad person.

Nice to see that mc finally teamed up with an elf girl.

Also I like how the animation gets worse and worse each episode. A few more and it will be a full 3D CGI show with some still images here and there.

It can't decide to be 2D or 3D so it end up as a hybrid, but the animation quality is not the worst part of this anime.

Is this author not capable of writing villains who aren’t rapey misogynistic pieces of shit? I know it’s a cheap and easy way to get the audience invested and angry, but it’s just so cheap. I can see doing it once like last week, but running the same gimmick back this week with the dude who tried “exposing” Mist was overdoing it.

That whole scene made me so uncomfortable seeing how easily he degraded someone he doesn’t even know in public like that and then the audacity to get upset when it turns out you had the wrong person 😭 how you gonna blame her for you being wrong.

Glad Momori gave them the exact sort of death they deserved in that dungeon. Wanted to rape a woman and make her monster feed, now you’ll get the pleasure of being monster meal 🤷🏾‍♂️

At least there’s SOME decent people in this world. The Saber Tigers commander ordering a retreat because of how dangerous the ruins turned out being was refreshing. Someone actually valuing peoples’ lives isn’t something we’ve seen a lot in this story.

The direction felt so off during the Toka and Mist convo in the dungeon. Feels like there were some cuts that were happening way too quickly and also Seven Arcs can’t decide if they wanna do 3D or 2D. I still don’t understand why basic ass conversations need to switch to 3D. Just do one or the other 😭 the story is actually interesting but the production values just kill it.

Now that Toka’s partying up with Mist should get interesting. She’s obviously the elf waifu but why’s she hiding and from who? Also if the golden aura thing is a sign of demon king energy, does that mean the golden hero aka Toka’s classmate is being manipulated by it?

This Civit character they teased at the end looks interesting as well. Wonder what Toka’s got himself into by partying up with Mist lol.

This is about just as complete as an Chogakusei's OP can get, when it comes to the visuals.

Touka reaching the Provincial City of Mils for a rest, though it's natural that he takes on an alias name of Hati Skoll to gather information for things like monster enhancement. Not forgetting that the Princess Knight is on the run due to the bounty on her head, and being disguised as an elf really has no incentive, except that she's human, not an elf, as Mist Balukas. The call from the Marquis to eradicate the Mils Ruins, both Touka and Seras Ashrain definitely have their secrets that are well-kept in order not to bring attention to each other, focusing only on the task at hand.

The Mils Ruins being similar with the Ruins of Disposal, Touka has it easy for the time being, much less the self-proclaimed Flash and his mercenaries that Touka honestly need not deal with them, though he does the deed anyways with his Paralyze and Poison on the spot. Reaching the Dragon Eye Chalice is a cinch for Touka, and even doing his skills on the gargoyle being its guardian to kill it, though he really has no need for such contrivances and instead, targets a monster that's just on the way to what he needs, with Seras forming a party with him and not impeding his path while on the way.

PIggymaru takes akin to Seras, but monsters with golden eyes are the only focus that Touka has now.

The production is rather inconsistent with 2D and 3DCG, are they trying to imitate Arifureta down to its animation as well?

Another good episode.

I am glad he made a friend and that they can work together to fight against their foes.

Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

Touka forms a party with Seras even though he still didn't fully trust her. Both of them also have some secrets. I would like to see how this relation will develop in the future.

Weirdest decision to have the MC being CGI while even people in the background in the same shot isn't. Seems less than a budget choice and more like they believe it's actually better.
Also what is up with this wild west/cowboy background music? We had that in previous episode as well.
Just overall weird decision making.

So that blonde girl is indeed the elf Seras as was suspected, and good thing that idiot blonde guy is dead after attempting to pay off a couple of mercenaries to have her raped and killed. Btw I think Touka was going to give them a chance to take back what they were going to do but when they doubled down and threatened to kill him he did what he did without remorse.

With Touka's deadly combo of paralyze and poison it reminds me more and more of "My Instant Death Ability is Overpowered" from this past winter season.

Is it cheaper to use 2D animation? or just lazy? Anyway, I actually enjoyed this episode, maybe because I love to see bad guys been taken care of early on, so no worries later.

I like the story. I know it’s been done before in many ways, but it has enough of a difference to keep me watching. I want to see how he grows and if it’s enough for his revenge(s). What’s driving me nuts is the scene-to-scene animation to 3D cgi and back to animation. They really went overboard with it this episode.

I rarely complain about animation quality, but this was worse than I'm standing on million lives

seems like our generic plot is moving along at least. would be nice to have less overtly terrible and more nuanced villains but seems that's not what this show is about, just generic fun.

Enjoying the story but wow this has to be some of the absolute worst animation I've seen. The drawn animation is somehow as bad if not worse than the poor quality CG. Seriously though is this studio just that mediocre, or did they just have next to no budget for this? Anyway, its still interesting enough to keep watching looking forward to seeing where this all goes. A drastically large amount of sexual predators in this series so far. How that random dude just lost his marbles all because that chick wasn't who he said she was? Talk about insecure and full of themselves, I'm glad the MC doesn't hesitate to kill these types at least. I honestly wonder if they didn't just use some low grade ai to animate this. It's either that or they're genuinely just that bad at their jobs.

Solid episode even with those weird CG usage.
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.

I'm enjoying the story (as another izekai), but as everyone must be saying *this animation is awful* 😂 Makes you want to not support the show given it's so bad.

Even from the very start every background looks terrible and like it's just been dragged and dropped from a collection of cheap backdrops (and that's not getting started on the CG characters).

Touka's standing in his room - 2D. Touka sits down on the bed - 3D. Make it make sense. I don't think I've ever wanted an interview with an anime staff as much as these just so someone can ask them what's up with the random switches. Aside from being ugly it's just bizarre.

Anyway, the reunion was much sooner than I expected. For a gal on the run Seras seems much too generous and accommodating, but it's nice to see Touka make a connection with someone in this world who doesn't betray and/or murder him. I complained in the previous episode it didn't make sense he didn't try to get more information from her, so a plus for him getting to help him out more.

I was surprised when the dudes at the tavern talking about all the powerful groups in the world didn't mention the goddess or anyone serving her. I assumed they'd be at the top or at least get a passing mention. Maybe they were just talking mercenary groups or I missed some other context?

I'd love the pacing if this were a 26 episode season. I'm still enjoying it, but we're a third done and it feels like it's barely even begun scratching the surface.

So they meet again. Another ruin to explore. Another opportunity to level up.

They better tell us another cour in its first season because a single cour wouldn't be enough with wll the world building this anime is doing.
