| I am atomic lol. Proceeds to blow up an entire portion of the city. Alexia just got straight out rejected, but I kind of expected it after seeing how this anime works. But yea we'll what adventure Cid takes next with this new girl who was introduced at the end of the episode. |
 |
| Reminded me of a few other anime: The dark knights with their cape and swords attacking the big monster (that regenerates while generating vapor): Attack on Titan. Cid as mastermind guy with some fancy looking costume: Zero from Code Geass. Though with his super powerful sword fighting ... more like a Kirito. :D When he talked about a guy wanting to be strong enough to fight a nuclear missile ... Baki and Hanma Yujiro came to my mind, lol. But yeah: Fun episode. The "I am atomic" was fun. Also the girl at the end not caring about the blood in his face. + some nice stuff for future development: The older sister princess gathering an investigation team. Shadow Garden then will have to become more careful. |
| Peak episode the humor in this show is so good but its also got pretty great action |
| lmao, this show is hilarious. Another great episode. |
| So how many civilians died in the atomic blast haha |
| "I am atomic"... Proceeds to nuke the city lmao. I expected the monster to turn out to be a girl but not that she was the daughter of the kidnapper from episode 2. I had a feeling we would see her at some point but not that soon. Is she dead though? That was pretty awesome from Alpha btw. Aww Alexia is showing her dere side <3. Too bad she's dealing with Cid. That was hilarious but come on, they had the best interactions so far :/ What could be more romantic than meeting your prince charming covered in blood lol. New girl is so cute. |
| Atomic? Talking about overkill! This is beyond OP. LOL Best episode so far. |
| Wtf, he's only flexing by making an atomic bomb, that's hilarious. A very cool episode to watch. |
| I like everything, ok |
| This was a really good episode, definetly one of the best new animated Isekais this year edit: I just checked what Isekai aired this yeqr and this is prob my fav (not counting Overlord, Mushoku Tensei and Marimashita! Iruma-kun) |

| I AM LEGEND ATOMIC! |
Nyarly-kamin said: Alexia acts a lot more deredere in here than the manga, so i actually felt a bit bad for her being rejected. Scene's even more hilarious though, Cid looks like he's about to accept but then SIKE Can't wait to see Sherry's arc viperhc said: Ok this was over the top but I guess that is how this anime will go. I think Cid could've killed Zenon without that atomic explosion that appeared to have wiped out part of the city (how many innocent bystanders died from that? Yeah I'm probably overthinking that.) Cid can detect other people with magic, so the nuke only killed the Zenon dude and stopped before hitting anyone else, notice how the magic aura stopped right in front of Alexia. He can control the magic so well it only harms who he wants to harm, it's really broken. MCHKenshin said: viperhc said: Ok this was over the top but I guess that is how this anime will go. I think Cid could've killed Zenon without that atomic explosion that appeared to have wiped out part of the city (how many innocent bystanders died from that? Yeah I'm probably overthinking that.) I was a bit surprised that Cid dumped Alexia and I'm guessing that was Cid's blood on the wall? In other words, I'm assuming Alexia got so mad that she attacked Cid and Cid took the hit and maybe healed himself afterwards? I believe it was said that no one was missing so I doubt it was Alexia's blood. It looks like Iris, Alexia's sister, knows that there are some traitors in the school since she had two of her trusted guys join an investigation team. Lastly, Cid needs to get himself cleaned up and I'm curious who the new girl is.  had to go through 5 mins of work just to correct your one point , what is my life coming toThanks, I totally missed that they cleared the residents and that he could control the magic. Still over the top but cool. |
| I don't know what it is about this season, possibly post covid vibes, but there is so many brilliant shows out there and this one definitely ranks up there. Just binged the last two eps and damn, shit is kicking off and people keep throwing shit at the fan! Loved it, next eps pls!! |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
pasanoid said: this shit is so generic, are they even fucking trying Person of curiosity, your tag line on your forum posts gets a top hit in google for a twitter account. I'm not suggesting its you or not, but why post such an inflammatory post going so far as to use expletives unless you are craving attention. Where on episode 5. If you dont like it, then dont watch it. No one is forcing you too, and even if you do watch it and dont like it, take that hate somewhere else, because other people enjoy the show and its tiresome having to read your hate, and tell you about it. |

| Really? Just had to make a crater in the middle of town |

Its just bad writing and over the top execution for no reason and going against what the main character is trying to do. just bad... oh yeah, battle between Mob vs Tsuzuki in MP100 killed many people, destroyed building, throwing the building, workplaces and many more. Ichigo vs Aizen too like that. and many more series like that, why you complain about that just for this series, make your statement in that series too and come here. |

| Why no one hiding their face? Bruh, this is some clark kent level of disguise bs. |

Nope you are not overthinking. It was just very bad writing. extremely over the top and goes against everything the character is said to represent and be. Just very bad. Not hating the series. I like the concept but its just so... bad... It is supposed to be over the top because the mc is a parody character and definitely not a good guy. |
| lol this shit is stupid but in a fun way |
| so far great. I've enjoyed all episodes. |
| Ok, another episode like this and its a drop, the whole episode was delivered with such a straight face it felt like it was taken from any of the hundred of OP protagonist isekai shows out there, the highlight of the episode came a bit too late since I was already half asleep and then the senseless destruction of a good chunk of the city took most out of what was good cringy fun. Was really hoping this show would be a comedy poking fun at isekai and chuunis but at this rate it'll turn into the very thing it set out to poke fun at. |
| ridiculous but in a good way, very fun to watch |
 |
| Cid nuked the cities entire district, Alpha vaporized the monster girl, and the world moves on. Honestly I'd be kind of afraid to live in that city. Another Amazing episode that felt like it flew by once more. |
 |
| they realized that the monster that turned out to be a young woman is the daughter of the one who kidnapped shadow's sister in chapter 2, how sad at least alpha let her rest. |
 |
| That was the weirdest 1st impression ever....he's just walking around with blood all over his one side? really? LOL.... |

Miraikane said: I mean, it's treated exactly the same way n the LN, down to the legend of how there must have been a murder but no body was ever found. Of course, this only makes sense as a joke (which they completely ruined with the thumbs down smh) because it's obviously not believable at all that she would try to kill him over being rejected, even if he had zero chill the way he did it. CrystaLyse said: Did he just killed Alexia. I don't see the reason to... Alexia is angry with Cid because Cid refuses Alexia to continue the relationship, that's why cid got that blood. Anime always presents something too dramatic, for example blood splatter. |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |

Just drop it bro, it's a parody the same way OPM is a parody, a comic relief MC in a serious story. It would never be a full blown comedy. |
