One of my most anticipated shows of this fall. I know nothing about the source material but the trailer looks great, and this coming from Shaft is enough to get me hyped

I like the attention to detail, like the fact they all teleported in an order that seems to correspond to how much mana each person has, with Nanahoshi who doesn't have any being first, and Sylphie and Rudeus being last. Also Sylphie looking worried more than anything, and clinging to Rudy's arm, when she's looking down over the edge, because she has a trauma from falling from the sky. Or how Rudy's eye lights up with mana in preparation for a fight when he's asked about man-god.

I wonder what's up with the white glow under the arch because it wasn't just Rudy, Sylphie had it too. Does man-god has some influence over her too? We can see some kind of alien looking figure on the relief. What was his role in the story told on the walls of Chaos Breaker? This episode brought us a lot of new questions.

I certainly didn't expect Nanahoshi's illness to turn so bad so fast. That was a lot of blood. Was it just because of illness? Or some effect flying fortress has on magic? I hope she survives. She's one of the more interesting characters in the whole series.

This is shaping up to be one of the best shows of the season, and maybe even the year. This episode was sorely needed and let us recontextualize Lisa's stance. No wonder she's so hateful to humans. I'd be surprised if she wasn't after all she went through over so many years.

At the end we hear Mari punch someone. Did she just think the last time I punched Lara she grew a pair of legs, let's try again? That'd be so funny

That mana when Rudy was performing the experiment gave me a little scare. Feels like holding a demon core with a screwdriver.

It feels that Perugius is a careful one. Nanahoshi says that there's a limit of 12 guests, and he has 12 servants, probably so that each one can handle a potential enemy or something. Or it was just a joke and Nanahoshi repeated it unknowingly, heh

In the meantime, princess Ariel is casually strengthening ties to the Greyrat family since it looks like an easy way to gain new allies. Rudeus is connected to some ridiculously strong/important people, he just brought a king class mage as his wife, all his friends are some sort of nobles or heroes. And now Ariel is not only friends with his first wife, she is getting closer to Norn too. I wonder what exactly is she scheming

Unfortunately, the visuals in this episode, just as in the previous one, weren't as good as in the first three.

I thought Imoko is always going to play the straight man, but it seems she wasn't spared either. Poor girl had to deal with enough Yaniko's habits that she developed a kink
