THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
It looks like Rio decided to enroll at a school and he cleaned himself up quite nicely.

Too bad not many people like him there except for Celia. This episode is quite an important one for Rio's life development. Not only does he get the chance to develop his skills further but he can also make new friends. His kendo skills is quite something.

Rio got his entrance into the Kingdom of Bertram in fashion, though a slave whose entrance is secured by saving Flora, and with all the stares of royalty. Still though, the 12-year-old Celia is a patient teacher to the illerate Rio who still requires personal tuition.

Shouldn't be a surprise Rio that his former life as a kendo martial artist helped him in his swordsmanship as well. But everything else is attributed to the bullying subjectivity between the royalty (who are literate ass-wipes from young) and someone like Rio who works hard to prove his worth. Not hard to see the possible romance brewing between him and Celia,

With a bit of a timeskip of 5 years, the kids have grown into teenagers, and Alphonse and the other royalty are still a pain in the butt. I literally forgot that Eromanga-sensei's main sibling VAs are also voicing both Rio and Celia, so that connection just makes it all the more fun...with the flirting and all between student and teacher about a small gap in age.

The meeting of his former prison interrogation toturer, and Rio has the cheek to taunt, much less easily triumphing over Charles with a straight face. The presence of former enemies will have a stark turn of a story going forward.

WOW, that fast and Rio already has admirers...so that is the start of the harem?

Still a very fast pacing on an obliterating level, what is the director thinking of speed-running the show to?

Celia really is cute in this episode!!! >.< I really love her character and her VA was really good at characterizing/portraying her.
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.

What did I just witness. It went from isekai to saviour to knocking him out and now we're at school and its been 1 and a bit episodes? The we have a time skip of 5 years, training montage, and a tournament? Break neck speeds, lets see if this is only for the start or not since my head is already hurting from the lack of information.

On the plus side, celia and rio's relationship did develop, but since this is a harem not expectation much past the oh i have a crush on him but he doesnt realise it phase, I really want to be surprised though!

I gotta say the girls in this show are really cute. Rio has made quite an impression on everyone because of the fact that the king allowed him to enroll in the Royal Academy. Everyone is giving him eyes and since he tops the class, everyone is jealous of him. Only Celia is the one who cares about him.

Celia is really cute. I love her. She's caring. Rio also showed his remarkable sword style. And, they grew up really quickly. LOL. It was an alright episode imo. The pacing was really fast. Like 5 years just went by in a flash.

Good on Rio for showing up Charles after all that shit he was talking. This show is deceptively good so far. Wasn’t expecting to get a really good isekai like this. Liking the character designs and Rio’s split personality type set up with his isekai personality and his original self is cool.

Celia is adorable.

This has taken an unexpected turn, I was expecting more battles, but in the end it's just a school harem...

ASDKS, the time-skip is up my ass wtf, it was the most random I've seen 0-0

Mmm, I liked the revenge. Here begins the romance, at this rate I bet on more than 5

The first episode served to explain the situation and setting, this episode serves to present a few more characters.

Some people are saying the show feels way too fast-paced but I haven't particularly felt that yet. Judging from the OP, there'll be a lot of characters too, so I understand trying to fit a lot of things into a few episodes.

Celia is very cute.

The anime's art style looks off sometimes, but overall it seems pretty good so far.

Rio enrolls in a royal academy, just like every other Isekai. Gets hated by the royals.
Professor Celia is the cutest, she's actually damn smart lol. 12 and already a tutor.

Rio's movements and sword ability are good because he did it in his previous life. Which gives him an avantage now.

A 5 year timeskip? Pacing is a little bit too fast.. but whatever

And he meets the torture guy again, defeats him in a second, gets a side hoe.

5 years timecap are to much so I give thos ep 3 of 5

I love relationship but the thing She is in love with him but he is not showing her same feelings. And why she was a teacher in such young age are therefore she is a half elf called here as a human elf. But I dont stand the princess cold feeling against him not thankful what he did 7 years ago. Also to say this anime is a typical Isekai isn't right. And someone says its harem. Also another funny thing about the harem genre are that the most of harem amines isn't real harems.

Harem are like this a guy as became together with 2 or more girls and not as get the girls to love him when he not loving them back.

I have seen much animes as are in the harem genre as not are real harems.

But wish this anime get som good love sceens may between Rio and his childhood firend as I readed in fandom will show up later in the ln but I dont kknow how much matreal as are taken in the 12 eps as we gona to get.

Much better episode than last one.

One thing though, Celia had balls to ask if Rio faced any problems during his 1st day even though she witnessed one of her students taunting Rio openly and simply ignored it. That was infuriating. If you are ignoring his problems, please ignore them don't show half-assed consideration.

Yeah the pacing is ridiculously fast. That goes to show the plot probably won't be able to stand on its own so they are rushing to tell the story. This will likely be a one cour show with no season 2.

For Celia, yeah, she's that character trope that keep looking like little girls. She has a complex about it as you can see.

For Rio and the other kids tho, they were 7, they are only 12 now, so it makes sense they still look like children.

Of course there's royalty looking down upon commoners. Shock.. Atleast Rio showed them what he is made off to the students and to the prick in the tournament.

Good episode, but incredibly fast. I didn't expect that 5 year time skip in the middle. Celia still small while Rio grew taller than her. Poor thing, she's still so adorable though. She get jealous cause Rio is about to get confessed to by a letter, so pure.

A nice character development episode with our MC being quite likeable. He tends to keep his thoughts to himself, doesn't display a lot of negative emotion when confronted by adversaries, and is thoughtful about his only friend. A pleasant anime to watch so far!

Was sceptical about this being another generic Isekai but damn this episode made it clear it ain't just your usual truck-kun anime, they did a hella good job portraying Rio as a wise and likeable character whilst Celia is just so damn cute. Just hope that they add some harder to guess plot later on for a season 2 if s1 turns out well.

I'm quite worried about how fast the story develops though, it might have been better if it was slowed down a notch, even so, the plot flows almost smoothly. I hope it slows down later on and doesn't have too many generic tropes.

This episode was enjoyable, simply because Celia is so cute. Fujita really does a good job voicing her and in overall, I really like the character designs for this show.

Other than that, the story was generic, but watchable. Still don't really care about Diet Kirito or all the other characters.

That timeskip was kind of sudden and too random to me but oh well. I like his new design and hopefully his classmates will get proven wrong about rio's abilities.

I liked it much more than the first episode

I'm liking the story so far. It just goes to show that if you have to be isekai'd, it would be best done to someone who has experienced/finished university and can retain their memories (incl. muscle memory) after the transport. All of that is helping MC in the new world.

I like how Celia is kinda like an oneesan-type figure to MC. She's really cute as well. (That was so slick how MC considered her as a "friend", hehe.)

I'm wondering if that bully classmate (and his sidekick) will end up becoming his friend. Also, those other two girls seemed to be intrigued by MC ...his recent academic successes is creating an air of mystery about him (and might get one of those girls attracted to him, hah!)

That sudden timeskip a little bit past the halfway point of the episode caught me off guard lol. At least MC is in a better position to court/flirt with Celia! :)

I like how that knight instructor was impartial to Rio's background and chose him for the tournament/exhibition match based on personal merit alone.

That was a nice surprise ending! Celia better try harder...

This Rio, boy! I'm in love with this guy, there's no way he could have been even more badass than by doing his best, using his experience from the past to crush his enemies today xD And in the most silent and badass way ever!

There was simply no way that everyone would hate him, he's way too good to simply ignore him lmao
And the way that he defeated that guy who tortured him, such a great moment!


Also, the romance is slowly starting to build up, which is great, and with that ending, it's time for Celia to catch the train while she still can xD
Can't wait for the next episodes man!

this show feels so lifeless. Rio is an emotionless protagonist and it really doesn't help the story in any way. The plot of a peasant entering into a magic school is so done to death at this point there's nothing really new to see here. I'm glad the primary school arc looks like it's just for this episode.

I know that split personality is a cliche in and of itself, but I honestly think separating Rio and the MC highschooler (whose name escapes me) would make for some more interesting characters and moments. Imagine if Rio and MC were separate characters in Rio's head and had different motivations. It would change the entire dynamic of the series. Thus far everyone is so flat. The show is fine. But nothing beyond fine because of the empty characters.

Everyone is saying that the pacing is fast but to me it just looks like a try to get to the main story as soon as possible cuz there r guys out there who just don't lose any opportunity to say "and here it begins the generic isekai ..how a mc is beating the bad kids at school and getting a harem"
It's not like he would set to destroy the demon army or whoever is the antagonist in this story at that age

Surprisingly really enjoying the show! I like Rio and how he doesn't get provoked by his classmates, he's just a calm boy. I honestly like the pacing, it feels slow in a good way but also pretty fast lmao. Also, Ciel is best fucking girl so far.

So Ayase disappeared after the last time Haruto saw her, I am guessing she got sent to that world also for some reason we don't know yet, maybe she also died or something.

The moment I saw that Charles is Rio's opponent, I knew he was getting clapped lmao, that was satisfying. C'mon Celia, don't let your boy get away, looking forward to the next episode.

I see that Rio growing fast like, damn, its fast! However, at the same time, the interaction with 'sensei' felt so good. Idk why, mostly its because of sensei was so nice, and, cute. Goddamned that's true! The story actually make its sense with the flows. So i don't see any problems with the narration, and so far, undeniably, its enjoyable. I like how everyone slowly recognized Rio's greatness. However, Rio, as op as the other protag exist before, hope to get more proper challenges in the future, and more girls incoming, ofc. So lets see them all progresses....
