| Episode 1 This season there will be not one but two fantasy shows about eating monster with this and Campfire Cooking in Another World. This time, the one eating the monsters is none other than a noble lady nicknamed the Voracious Villainess, Melphiera. It's unbefitting for a noble lady, but Mel loves the taste of monster meat and won't mind getting her dress dirty to do so. And then there's Galbraith, who Mel meets after he slays a backhorn monster for Mel to indulge on, and from there they start a romantic relationship. Pretty amusing start here as these two out to be an interesting, odd couple, all while Mel's appetite is really something. |
| That was some silly fun. The cutesy moments didn't feel forced or undeserved. |

| This one is a little weird, guess we'll be getting some more background eventually, like why is this noble girl eating something everyone thinks is poisonous. I would guess it has something to do with her mother. How does her step mother think she can send her to a convent when her dad doesn't seem amenable to that |
| So a man who likes to hunt monsters for the challenge and a girl who likes to cook monster meat. Both looked on as weird by polite society, brought together by their mutual hobbies. Pretty simple set up but looks like it will be a fun ride |
| It needs more magic. Or better humor. It's almost there, but I have a hard time relating to a character who is obsessed with exotic meats. I'll consider giving it a couple more episodes to win me over. |
| Episode 2 And just like that, Melphiera and Aristide are a couple, tied together with their taste buds. Ari was so excited to hunt down a giant golden goat that he had to come over to see her, especially since winter starts sooner where she lives. And he made quite the entrance there on a dragon, and that giant goat is valued for its fur while its meat gets tossed away. Of course, it's something that Melphy would love to devour herself. But there's one catch in that the goat they brought over is still alive. Quite an odd couple they have become, but they certainly have one thing they can count on. |
So on the same day we have shows about a monster who wants to eat a girl, and a girl who wants to eat monsters. If only we could get these two together. |

marklebid said: The scene with the king was '10 days ago' and they gave the king's very long full name, along with that he was the 29th king. We've reverted to the bad old days of anime where they don't bother translating on screen text. Maybe I need to go to the local flea market to look for bootleg VHS tapes too. Obviously poor little Sony doesn't have the money to spend on translation after spending over a billion dollars on Crunchyroll. |
| Episode 3 Now with a moodle in hand, Ari has his guys cut its fur off, and then the Duke cuts off its head to allow Melphie remove the magic energy to make it edible using a spell she learned from her mother and refined through research, though for an animal like this it required two flasks rather than the usual one. After that, they make skewers out of the moodle's meat with the Duke providing the seasonings he swiped from the chef's kitchen. And these skewers are a big hit with the soldiers as they were barbecued to perfection. After that, Melphie takes the Duke to her room that's a giant laboratory, and then she explains her family's history. She acquired her love for monster meat from her mother, who resorted to eating that because she had to live through a famine, and her research was a life-saver, and Melphie's homeland frowns upon eating monster meat, which has her becoming an outsider even though she's a noble. That's all about to change now that she's entering into a romantic relationship with somebody who's just as crude, at least by this land's standards. That was some backstory there that I hope to learn some more about as that's how Melphie got to be so resourceful. |
| "You realize you have enough concentrated magic here to blow up a country right" "Huh??" "Never you mind, lets cook some kabobs." |
| Episode 4 And with that, Melphie has left her homeland to become a noble of Galbraith. Seeing that she's determined to continue her mother's research on monsterology that she will have that opportunity being married to Ari. She left behind quite a lot there as her stepmother Celia is quite critical of her birth mother Elise, while her stepbrother Louis will ascend to the throne someday, but Melphie doesn't care about what she's leaving behind. And then having copied all her mother's research material, she burns what remains of it as she leaves. This goes to show that Melphie is determined to make sure that she can carry on her late mother's research, something that she can do in Galbraith, and not so much in Marchalrayd. |
| So her dad spread the nasty rumours about her to keep the ambitious away from those vials of concentrated magic.. Dad recognized the danger of that stuff even if she didn't |

That plus the nasty woman he married makes me question how much he was actually protecting her. |

| @HOOfan_1 With the things the wicked stepmom was saying I have to wonder how much he protected his late wife. |

| Episode 5 Melphie and Ari are on their way to Galbraith, but before that they take a quick stop for the night where they find a place to stay at Fort Ritterd. Seeing that Melphie would rather stay in a place that looks like her research facility that she spends the night in a humble room in the fort. And there, she has some moodle meat for everybody to enjoy. Then at the campfire, Melphie and Ari decide to call each other by name. Then Melphie recalls how her mother died as Elise was poisoned by monster meat as while she had the tolerance for eating the stuff, she hadn't figured out how to eat it safely without being poisoned by its toxins. Good to see those two getting close as this was all about understanding each other and supporting Melphie for what she wants to do with this relationship and with monster meat. |
| Episode 6 This time, Melphie is cooking up some seafood as they caught a big one from the river, a gigantic fish called a zanas. Just like with the moodle, a lot of preparation is needed as first it needs to be slain and beheaded. Then Melphie draws out the blood, while the retainers gut out its organs. It was a lot of work, but they did it. And then Melphie makes fried fish out of the zanas, and once again it's a hit with everybody. So after cooking some mutton, and now some fresh seafood from the deep fryer, it's off to Galbraith where Melphie is going to be living from hereon out. |
| Episode 7 Aristide's background is explained just as Melphie and the gang approach Galbraith. Aristide is the second prince and the country is in a famine due to an extreme drought with the previous duke dying from starvation. A succession battle was about to break out, but Aristide agreed to give Maxim the throne, while Aristide becomes the duke instead as he wants to do whatever he can to keep the kingdom fed in light of this drought. It turns out that Aristide wields a dangerous power in his eyes which he couldn't control as a kid, but has better control of it today. So after all that, they arrive in the woods just outside Galbraith, but they get attacked by a flock of man-eating birds who normally don't go after groups, and Aristide uses his eyes to accelerate, but they are about to crash on the ground. It's no wonder why Aristide was so attracted to Melphie as they hope that her research on eating monsters will save the country that is short on food. |
