I'm actually liking this a lot! Didn't expect much but the magic system is interesting and had more thought put into it than the typical "mana is magic".

Rit and Red should just kiss and fuck at this point because the tension is off the roof.

People the find it boring proabably don't like the SoL parts but I expected this to only be SoL, so anything small plot related is just a bonus for me and it helps that I'm enjoying the SoL parts

Red and Rit gives me life. What a chill and cute episode, except for that one scene with the blood covered kids, that was awfully dark lmao. Those blessings are kind of fucked up. Speaking of blessings, Red's mornings are blessed alright, cause ho boy, that's one hell of a beauty to wake up to.

I don't want Red's peaceful life with Rit to be interrupted, but it's gonna be really interesting once they find him. Looking forward to the next episode.

Another episode of Rit and Red's sex life, I mean slow life.

The whole Blessing system sounded really stupid. Bar Brawler's Blessing? Really? I assume Rit has a Prostitute's Blessing then.

I liked the part of mixing drug and food to make a product. Makes a lot of sense from a business stand point.

Wait, wait a second. You can't just slip in "you must battle and slay someone who has a blessing" then go right back to the happy couple life. Do only sentient beings have blessings? Is it common for people to murder each other? How much can you improve without killing? How about our master carpenter elf friend? Has that hammer crushed some skulls? How are we getting a slow life if the world works like that?

Separately, Rit's outfit is such a LN thing. This happened with RokuAka too where it's clear it was picked for a sexy cover and then is really at odds with the tone when you can see it all the time.

I've read the manga. Well they skipped some scenes but I think its not a big deal. Their chemistry is amazing, kind of anime that I need since fantasy romance with no harem are rare these days!

Not doing too bad with this adaption.Red's personality seems the same as the LN,Rit is more or less spot on,and they've managed to keep the slow easiness life pretty much the same so far.Even Ruti seems as scary as she seems in the LN.
Damn good show so far.


as your a LN reader

Can they kill monsters and demon lords army etc to raise their rank cause just killing people seems odd given that didn’t it say that all living beings have a blessing?
Since this might be a bit of a spoiler I'll hide it behind a spoiler button,but this is from the LN,Vol 1

Hope that clears it up as the anime does seem to leave quite a bit out when it comes to explanations.

You can see the bit from the LN in my last post,but basically,all living things have blessings,so to "level up"you have to kill.Simple as that.They don't think much about it since thats how it is,and has been for ages.And yes,it is common for people to kill each other,but then again,the sames true in this world too,we just don't get a level up tone or music when we do it to each other.
Hmmmmm,just a thought,if we did hear that,say,something like the ff7 victory music,I wonder how much unlawful killing would go up by?
And modern battlefields would be a right pain in the ass :)
Though it'd be a bit of a bummer for murderers and serial killers,having that go off just after offing someone and the next thing you know,you're sat in an electric chair :)
On the other hand,bet an Executioner would have stupidly high levels ;)

Okay, so killing beasts is fine for leveling. That takes away most of the worrying societal implications, but then it's a weird aside since that's how leveling works in almost every property. It makes it a moral realization on the level of we kill cows for burgers rather than talent is fueled by murder.

I agree,but then again it's one of the first,maybe the first,that I've watched that treats leveling in this way.Most others(also including games in this)you level up by killing monsters and/or whatever else is "the enemy",but in this(so far anyway)you can level up by killing just about anything that has a blessing,be it a pig,wolf,orc,giant,your uncle etc etc.Its weird and has a lot of implications like you pointed out,murder becomes not a taboo as such,but a means to get stronger.Obviously the act of doing something like killing your uncle would(unless he's an evil SOB)have consequences,but in this world who knows? - I'm only up to Vol 4 of the LN so far :)
Then again,there are parallels in our world,such as some cults.Some of them believe that if you sacrifice or kill someone you gain power from doing so,either from God or from absorbing that persons soul or power.
Our societies tend to rationalize and moralize a lot of things that were once taken to be the way things were done.A feudal knight didn't(probably)moralize killing another knight who was his enemy,yet nowadays if a soldier kills another soldier who is an enemy,more often than not that soldier is looked at as being either a psychopath(if he shows no remorse)or warped by the act of doing so(If he shows remorse or anguish).It's often not the case,a soldier does think about the act of killing another person,but he's trained to "mentally"put it to the side and move on with his/her job.Thats one of the reasons for so many cases of PTSD in combatants.They do what they are trained to do,and then that same society(even though the same society asked them or told them to do it)treats them as "invalids" or "headcases".

Man,that was seriously stressful to think about,I'm gonna go take my pills! :)
Anyways,if you're thinking this much about the show,if you can,try reading the LN,theres a lot in it that explains much better than I can about its world.
And its also a pretty good read as well ;)

Now this was a great episode, the sol is really kicking in and I love it. We also learned more about how blessings work in this world, as well as the situation with the hero’s party, but I’m honestly here for the SoL so I hope they keep it coming from here on out. Also enjoying the budding romance between Rit and Red, it’s very sweet, my lad picked her up, about to take her home just like Rena from Higurashi.

I went into this anime with no expectations and boy am I really enjoying it. Rit and Red's relationship is so cute and wholesome. Personal sleeper pick anime for me.


Something about Ruti is extremely unsettling with the way people in the party straight-up fear her. We will find out soon how bad deep this rabbit hole goes.

This is quite an adorable episode of these two interacting. They should keep the focus on these 2 interacting than having other elements.

I don't know... I could watch an entire series about these two having cute moments. This is when the romance is done right.

That moment when he's spinning her around is so cute.

Chill show, but those two love birds needs to get married already.

Ares is such a douchebag. Seeing the elf girl punch him is so damn satisfying.

Even though Red is enjoying his "slow life" I did like to see him join the Hero's Party again cuz I don't want this to become boring. First making him leave and now searching for him to join again what a waste of time and I think there is a 90 percent he will say no cuz he lost intrest in adventure and he's already doing good enough without them let's see where this show goes

Wow pretty good episode. I am liking the elements here it is just chill all around. Pretty wholesome when Red spun Rit, I want to try that too.

Anyways, now the party out for him again so that will be interesting.

Ruti scares her own party members which I don't find a characteristic of a hero. It shows that Ares made a huge mistake by kicking out Gideon/Red because they haven't accomplished much since he left.

Largely meh. I mean, they're just playing "house" together. It's kind of sappy

But that scene inthe desert at the end was very interesting. Still trying to get a grasp on all the members of that party, but at least we may be taking a leap forward in the plot. That dude who's going to look for him sounds like the same English v.a. as Veldora from Slime. Cool haha

They went to get a permit for their new medicines and bought some furnitures , especially for Rit as she'll be living together wirh Red too now. Some villagers were surprised knowing infamous Rit'll be living together wirh Red, as usual their interaction were adorable and wholesome, tho.. red still embarassed to buy a double bed for him ad Rit together XD.

They meet Tanta's fighting with another kid, when Red realize about the kid had received his blessings, some short explanation about the blessing itself in this series.

After usual lunch together with Rit, Red realized after seeing her delightful expression enjoying his tasty food, he decided to made the usual bitter medicine to be sweet, mixing his ccooking skills and medicine skills. Thanks to this idea and Rit great advertisement in the village the medicines were sold out. Because of this Red subsconciously holding up Rit high as He expressed his happiness of the selling making Rit blushing :D.

Meanwhile, Danan relly unimpressed with how Ares manage the party after Gideon left "kicked" and decided to look for him.

can't wait for the next episode :D

I already knew the show isn't a masterpiece but this episode really disappointed me. The dialogues felt unnatural like an AI or a robot might have come up with them. The story isn't anything special either. The animation is just slightly better than a slideshow. In that regard, at least I can say that it exceeded my expectations.

I'm starting to watch it to connect with its second season which is currently airing.

It was quite interesting the explanation about how blessings work in this anime.

On the other hand, I'm worried about Ruti, she has a bit of a malevolent aura, but she's the hero, so I guess there's nothing to be afraid of.
Anyway, I don't trust Ares, he seems to be up to something.
