Yup, that's Kaito in a nutshell. I admire his determination but damn, he really need to know his own limits.

Then again, this is Kaito we're talking about who aims to go for whatever he wants at any cost. Luckily he is saved by his friends and got his first on screen 'kiss' this episode.

Kaito has been hard at work in the dungeon trying to find the elixir for Hikari, and even his friends want to help, but being weaker will only impede his way so keeping her company is only appropriate. Even her learning about Katsuragi's acclaimed father who got lost in the dungeon, her aspirations are many, but getting well is the main point. But back to the dungeons, the deeper Kaito and the gang goes. they're earning more experience as the search for the elixir heats up.

The more Kaito pushes himself, the more he's getting tardy for school, and much less putting his friends and Katsuragi deeply worried for him. Even the summoned lolis agree that Kaito goes overboard, but still, it's his decision to move forward and deeper...igniting his worst enemy yet: a monster stampede that they can't escape out of, barring the lolis to help him out in an effort to subdue the stampede, even when he slips due to his tiredness, leaving Syl, Luce and Bellia to take control. Syl having to do CPR on him with the potions...and both Luce and even Bellia had to do the kisses just because lols.

For the first time in a long while, Kaito got the heebie-jeebies, because he failed to do his job well. What other choice does he have going forward?

Thus it was how Kaito got PTSD and never dared to leave his house again. His grief over ignoring the well meant advice of his friends and retainers made him easy prey for Katsuragi. She moved in to take care of him and eliminated his family so they could stay together for the rest of their lives. The end.

@KANLen09 Technically Luce stopped Bellia before he could drink the potion.

New level up, new skills, and even a new combo. Quite adorable.

and so, the children molestedsaved the MC... what a fan service... 😏

CrazyButNot4USep 7, 10:18 AM
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.

The hunt for the elixir continues, Kaito really went hard on it, so hard he’s been losing sleep and everyone has begun to worry about him, I get it tho, this is a life or death situation for Hikari after all. And finally, we got some unique looking floors, I guess really they still looked kinda plain but I’m just happy to have some variety, I would have liked to see more of that floor they fought the lion monster on but they unfortunately didn’t spend much time there. The next floor being ice themed is pretty cool (see what I did there) but what’s not cool is the encounter they came across with that stampede, it was cute how Kaito was princess carrying Sylphy there as they ran but they couldn’t keep it up and had to stand and fight.

But without a full party, the stampede was too much for Kaito and his fun sized party, that is until Luceria and Sylphy leveled up and used a new attack to keep Kaito safe, and I’m ngl it looked pretty cool actually, the fusion of the attacks together was especially nice. And it looked like Kaito was in a bad state there as they tried to bring him back, but the chibi trio turned it into a comedic scene as they kept going in for kisses, Bellia even nearly joining in before he was stopped lol, cute little scene but the near death experience ended up giving Kaito PTSD, and with one episode left I’m not sure if they’ll manage to find that elixir on time, hopefully the finale will still manage to be fun whether they do or not.

The story is not thought out at all.

There are too many convenient developments.

The story is too scattered.

I thought that episode 11 would continue from episode 10, where they fell into the quicksand, and then there would be a battle.

But it turned into a story from another day. It felt like they didn't think about anything.

As for the story as a whole...

① Do they want to admire the lolis?
② Do they want a serious development?
③ Do they want to create the harem from episode 7?
④ Do they want to advance the love life of the heroine, Katsuragi?

It's too scattered.

As for the serious developments in the story...

① Do they want to advance the matter of Hikarin's elixir?
② Do they want to advance the disappearance of the missing Captain Katsuragi?
③ Do they want to advance the story of the mysterious attack by the enemy camp from episode 8?

It's too scattered.

I don't think it will come together in one more episode...

Even if there is an event in episode 12 where they find Hikarin's elixir,
I don't think there's enough time to give it to Hikarin, have her drink it, recover, and bask in the afterglow.

A terrible work among terrible works... The original author was also worried about the story wrapping up nicely in X.

I thought this was one of the best episode so far.
I really good balance of seriousness and comedy.
I loved the part where Bellia wanted in on that action with Sylphy & Luceria.

I have ADD, ADHD & AUTISM, but this won't stop me. Let's keep having fun together.

@CrazyButNot4U There's nothing Kaito can do, when his summons take advantage of him. Earth laws do not extended into interdimensional dungeons. There's nothing he can do about it.

I would get my affairs in order then proceed to live in the dungeon, where I would have the two lolis summoned all the time, and breed them constantly.

@rarukuansieru This is a pretty good breakdown. I would also add:

-Lackluster/inconsistent animation - they really did Luce dirty this episode with that awkward slide and reusing her animations
-Strange cuts - seriously how many times are we going to spend extra time on the buff song? The second one didn't even have the music.
-Underwhelming sound design - the fight scenes lack impact despite the sound effects because the balance is weird and the OST doesn't fit with what's happening

They are trying to do way too much at once. The main feature in the series is supposed to be the dungeon and yet I find myself much more interested in everything that happens outside it.

Despite having 3 main powerhouses on the team when Kaito is by himself plus a broken as hell magic weapon they're still only on floor 11/12? If he can get here by himself shouldn't the main party be way further? The progression would also add more justification for finding the magic item that supposedly is almsot impossible to find despite people like Captain Katsuragi making it down to at least floor 41. [As an aside, did we really need a scene of Kaito watching the TV show where he had the brilliant realization that rarer items come from lower floors? I know this has been said already.

The lolis kissing Kaito to bring him back to life was funny though. I wish Bellia got to do it too.

Kaito is one lucky sumbitch, not just to be alive, but the way he was revived as well. Sheesh.

Would've been funnier if bellia got to smooch him as well... but Luce wasn't having that haha.

3/5 episode.

Learning how to pace himself and maintain his health for maximum productivity is something he should have learned long before level 12. Well, at least we had some grit in it today once we got beyond the 15-minute exploration of "he's too tired." Glad to see the kids have managed some stat growth, at least.

TBH, skimmed through most of this episode, only watched the cute lolis parts, lol.

(too bad he wasn't awake to enjoy the loli kisses) (does this count as lewding the lolis? even if reversed? lol)

.

BTW... I also just realized this (again, I keep on finding loopholes and controversies in this series every episode)...

But they also have lights set up in deeper dungeon (meaning people have already explored a lot deeper and find more rare loot), so how is it that no one has yet to find a miracle elixir yet?

(remember, they said there was "no cure", meaning they don't have a elixir to cure her illness, whatever it is... since they don't tell you and just say it's a uncureable illness for drama purposes)

(while at it, the elixir is even more rare than Valkyrie and Devil servants... since when MC goes to show the dungeon lady the summon cards, they already have a pricing on it, meaning there are other people with Valkyrie and Devil servants, which these cards by default is suppose to only drop in a lot deeper floors, but even those people with rare cards don't have elixir huh...)

I feel in a better show the PTSD would've been a good plot twist, but in this show, it feels like a box-ticking exercise for tropes.

Syl doing the fluid kiss thing was cute...then it became annoying...and then it became funny.

One more episode.

Why doesn’t this series look as epic as the ending song? I haven’t read the manga or the light novel, but something feels off. It feels like the series is missing something. Some parts just don’t fit, and sometimes the dialogue feels forced :(

There were literally 7 characters in this story who kept telling the MC to calm down and rest. How crazy is that! It seems to be a more futuristic society, so I'm thinking futuristic, they must still have the basics of risk prevention. Well, maybe I'm talking about something I haven't mastered, but I think that at a certain stage of a society, people have to think about their survival sometimes.

After all, the guy didn't even know what taxes were, so I guess he doesn't know what burn out is xD Or stupid actions Counter productive! :3
