At this point, Maple is already an ANOMALY!
She's definitely an IRREGULAR!
5/5.

I should also make not of the parallels between the demon thingy and Shingeki no Kyojin. Both in acquisition of said form (Maple gets swallowed, destroys the demon from inside instead of being digested, gets ability to use demon form) and in its use (outer shell with its own stats, returning to normal form voluntarily or when the shell is killed).

Their entire party is stacked. Not even the best of the best of players can defeat them, not even that guy who moves once every 9 secs and lags a lot can beat them one on one

Maple, Sally, and Kasumi looked pretty cute with the wool outfit.

LOL! Maple doing Maple things once again.
Beating the strong boss by EATING!
The burp onomatopoeia was adorable.

Jeez. Just when I taught that the [Atrocity] skill was ridiculous, now she has an IS.
But that burst scene reminded me of Freedom Gundam with the METEOR Unit though.

Bit by bit, Maple is reaching new levels of ridiculousness. As if her [Atrocity] (what an appropriate name) were not enough, she became mecha.

Maple's sincerity is still priceless.

That mecha suit really showed that Maple not only has great hips, but she also has an ideal hourglass figure. It was mentioned in a past forum and you can kind of see it in her normal outfit but now it's clear. And the suit she turned into was really cool looking.
I haven't read any of the light novels but I can clearly see that important information about the skills she gets is either skipped or barely mentioned. That would really help show that she is not as OP as one might think. I think it needs to do a better job of that.

This show keeps finding new and creative ways to disappoint me with each passing episode. It's like it wants me to hate it. Maple doesn't work for anything, she doesn't earn anything, she just keeps getting everything she needs on a silver platter. Her supreme protagonist power just got even more ridiculous with this episode, and this time, the show's production values weren't enough to save it. They often say that a pretty face can be ruined by an ugly personality and this rings true for Bofuri. This show is nothing more than excuse to create an awesome protagonist that everyone will love. I think I'm gonna start hate-watching this show from now on. It might seem harsh, but my patience has officially reached its limits.

You are the one assuming. I said "probably". If I had assumed, I would have said "You remember her..."

LOL, at the beginning of the episode, the Twins in the background, did their hammer grew in size?

Also.... Maple being cute in a ball of Wool while firing off a Turtle Beam Cannon... OP AF.

And then she gets eaten... or the monster gets eaten instead... from the inside out... why does this remind me of DBZ? Then she gone Predator on us...


She's now a "Maneating Toxic Angelic Demon Stratos" (infinite stratos machine suits)


Now... if she somehow combines and use multiple powers at same time... oh god.... She's got Tank, Damage, and Range all in one... literal God.

They didn't need to.
Sally and the others worked hard and reached the highest reward. The pig-head thing that was added to the wall inside their guild was the highest-tier reward available. The pig head grants all members of the guild STR+3% as long as it is on their guild wall.

Do you:
A: Reach the best reward and then go have fun.
B: Reach the highest reward, then spend another 10 years trying to rank 1st for no added benefit.

Furthermore, Maple Tree has 8 members, 4 of which won't affect the results. (3 0-AGI, 1 crafter (-50% or more damage to monsters))
Maple Tree has a maximum size of 50, and that is still classified as a small guild. From this, Medium is probably ~200 max. Large guilds would probably be around 500 max. Other guilds actively invite people, meaning you can expect around 120 in a large guild.
This means, 5 people would need to hunt enough to equal 60x. Keep in mind that the cows were spread out and you needed to actively pick up the loot.

Finally, although the anime makes it look like only Flame Emperors and the Order of the Holy Sword are the only large guilds, there are at least 10 large guilds, and the bigger medium guilds definitely exist. Plus, there are large and medium guilds that are sub-guilds for the large guilds that have reached their player-cap.

Having an OP MC is fine and all but the meta commentary of the admins/devs makes it cringe. We get it. Maple is OP. No need to talk about it from some outside perspective and the end messages as well.

She uses skills which you put in the game. The fuck is wrong with you.

Having an absurd amount of BS skills is also fine. But atleast make them actually do what they say they do. Atrocity didnt just give her 50 strength and 50 agility and 1k HP, it turned her into some demon monster which could soolo the boss again. Like, sure, make her a demon. Give the skill a proper description though. That str and agi is nothing noteworthy really, thats probably what normal players have.

Lvl 3 is a steampunk world which is nice.

aaand she turns into a gundam. Sure. Why not.

I imagine as if there was production committee that decides Maple's power. They come every morning to the office and say: "ok guys, we need more ideas on how to break Maple even further". Some employees quit the job because they say she's way too OP and can't think of ways to make her more OP. *sad noises*

Maple is getting so powerful that the admins(?) aren't sure if she hit her limit. Maybe got new forms and Syrup we finally got to see Turtle attack. I wasn't expecting Turtle to become a grass Pokémon like Venusaur or Torterra when using Frenzy Plant and Solarbeam, but Turtle is Maple's pet after all. At this point, I'm like her guildmates, dumbstruck. On a random note, I would like to see Maple recruit someone who maxed out their magic stat.
