| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Kazuya Souma is sitting there on that throne chair like a boss. I see this episode properly introduced most of the main cast now including Juna. Not a fan of her anime character design but whatever. At least they made her character very graceful. This episode had a very diverse range of characters in both personalities and races. I think it's a decent way as they can all pour creative ideas together to help the nation. Tbh, I consider this episode to be the real take off the show, with the first two being more like introductory episodes. |
 |
| The most importuned thing that should be mentioned for this episode, Tomoe needs more screen time!! Now we meet the characters that will help out the question is what will their influence be, so for they have only been introduced. Souma also started using the announcement system for other things than what it was used for which is of course nice for the population, getting more information. I have to say this was nicely animated so far. |
| Dude, his name is "Kwonmin" ... thats literally Kongming lmao. Whos Guan Yu in this ? They were not joking with the Three Kingdoms references lol. |
 |
| This was the whole introduction to the cast of the show. I love how calm Kazuya is as a king of a country. He's willing to help every one of them and his own country by any means. Takes a lot of knowledge and skill to run a country like that. Liscia gets jealous a little bit of that beautiful singer girl. LOL. Kazuya is such a great king in my eyes. I like his character and his approach towards the matter on his hands. Also, his remotely reading skill looks pretty handy. Overall, another nice episode. |
 |
| Hmm, new characters... They are interesting, but nothing remarkable at first glance I'd say... A whole episode to introduce 5 people, idk but it was quite tedious for me Well, from now on, with everything already presented, we can finally start the interesting stuff <(￣︶￣)> |
| A little jealous of Liscia was sooooo cute. Kazuya's poltergeist hand, surely, is a very handy skill. |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
| Aww, I wanted to see the "audition" of all the contestants. Must be nice being able to remote read. Imagine having that during an exam and you can just look up the answers without getting caught, easy. |
 |
| Great presentation for all the new workers, they don't look incredible but I swear they are (especially Aisha for me) Quite the cliffhanger with what Tomoe said to Souma, the current situation is definitely interesting! |
 |
| They really named a character, "Poncho Pannacotta" huh... |
| This episode went by with the introduction of the gathered talents. The dark elf is ready to become his concubine and watching Liscia getting jealous was cute. Also I wonder what Tomoe said to Soma at the end there, he had a very shocked look on his face. |
 |
| Having only one language in the world though sure will be useful. Given how useful Souma's been as a king so far Liscia wanting to keep him there is understandable. From the get go Aisha's attitude sure stood out as did her race's rep for being powerful warriors. Juna while certainly pretty also had one hell of a singing voice as well. To think that Pancho will be the one that Souma needed the most. I suppose a gourmet will be the best to tell you if a specific food type is worth keeping. Hayuya's test while simple in theory sure was a well thought out plan. Overall an excellent ep that while hinting at the changes that Liscia is going through did an excellent job at showcasing the new talent that will be joining the ranks to aid Souma's rebuild of the kingdom. Im quite curious at what role Tomoe will get though considering her talent. Vet maybe. While too soon to tell i think Hayuya will be someone that can be relied upon to keep things honest in the government. |

Check out my channel @Criticiza on Youtube to watch my vids ;) |
| "Slayers Next" opening took me out of guard. |
| It was a good episode overall, it gave me a smartphone isekai vibe though. |
I am a useless student of society. Tests are my body and Grades are my blood. I have done over a thousand assignments. Unseen by teachers, nor done properly. Yet, those hands shall never hold an outstanding grade. So, as I pray... Unlimited Homeworks. |
| Slayers Next opening was fire. Pity that they didn't cast Megumi Hayashibara as Doma but Reina did great job too. Hope that means we will get new Slayers anime :D |
| Ugh, LN level of writing is showing. That kind of active way of maintaining a forest applies to artificial forests, not natural ones where old trees fall and make space for saplings waiting in the undergrowth. Putting that aside, I'm pretty damn sure elves living in a forest know more about it than a high schooler from country that has close to no natural woodlands anymore. Another thing, shouldn't fat twat be recognized for being a gourmet, instead of a glutton? Being a hog doesn't mean someone if actually knowledgeable in regards to food anyway. The whole selection was pretty dumb as well. Why would he learn about gathered talents only the moment he meets the people and need to decide where to appoint them? Shouldn't he first receive a report of all talents, decide which are useful and only then held an audience to appoint chosen ones? I know isekai pretty much equals bad writing but country building series can't be as lazy as every other. Oh ye, one more thing, if everyone lives in the same small kingdom and speaks the same language, why are names so absurdly different? Reason other than usual lack of creativity and coherence. |

Ii tenki desu ne... |
| For a show that is full of plot holes, it sure loves to "explain" things using unnecessary narrations. I don't even understand the purpose of the avant part about the languages. The dark elf part was sort of odd too. She starts out refusing to bow because she only bows to her master, but then the MC reads a Wikipedia page on "Thinning" and the next thing she is on her knees. Nothing interesting happens in rest of introductions to the other characters. At least it ended on a cliffhanger, but I don't think I'll be tuning in for episode 4. |
| A lot of new characters. All 5 of them have something special. Hakuya was the most interesting one. Later he became Souma's right hand. Can't wait to see more of that. And that cliffhanger, ffs.. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| The recruit by Kazuya seemed to have been a success. He was so satisfied with Poncho. Maybe Kazuya just wants to eat other countries food or use Poncho's knowledge to improve the food of the country. Hakuya seemed like a badass I can't wait to see more of him. |

betaweeb said: in what is basically a middle ages level society? come on bro i know this is a petty nitpick, but no matter how convenient magic is this is just ridiculous. It was simply not used until now. |
AntonKutovoi said: "Slayers Next" opening took me out of guard. I was also very surprised. |
| It was interesting, I expected more action, but is Ok, let´s see what happen in next episode. I still don´t figure out how Souma will use Poncho´s talent.  |
| Kazuya acts like a king all right wow! Tomoe is too cute I love fox girls :3 |
 |
| Bro im so curious what tomoe said to kazuya in the end-.- Btw kazuya poltergeist technique is nice. Overall nice episode they introduced all 5 characters in 1 episode. |
P O S I T I V E V I B E Sシ  |
| Well okay then.. Not much of a selection happening here for the viewers, they already picked everyone. Even though they were hyping up a big talent showing. The ending was a real tease, PauseChamp moment. |
| Give it another few weeks and I will call Kazuya's poltergeist hand, Master Hand lol. So the selection was exactly the few characters highlighted in the last episode. I am surprised about Poncho's talent. When I read "eating", I was like That's it?! But it seem Kazuya seems to see something in that talent that I don't see. But who knows we might explore that a little more later. When it comes to the girls, they are all really cute. That Lorelei descendant and her signing voice is godlike! She put the best impression on me. I don't know what it is... I am curious to know what Komoe said to Kazuya. Now it's only a matter of time for the final girl to join the harem some time soon (I hope) |
 |
| Great episode. Souma gets some useful talents of people. The whole scene of it is just nice. Looks like the story is taking its time to move which is good for this type of show. Overall best episode yet |
 |
Isshin said: I recognized it immediately and said out loud "No fu**ing way. Slayers?" xDSlayers Next opening was fire. Pity that they didn't cast Megumi Hayashibara as Doma but Reina did great job too. And yes, it was fire and she did great job. Isshin said: I would love to see that, but it seems unlikely, if not impossible, right now :/Hope that means we will get new Slayers anime :D |
 |
| Why do I feel like that song bit, is going to be used in an anime meme somewhere, and someone is gonna replace the song with a Rick roll, or something really out of place lmao. |
| very interesting skill, just like having a google in your head :) |
 |
| Damn,quite a bit was missing from the LN,but the main points were got across I suppose. Nice to see Tomoe as cute as described,and Juna as beautiful as well. Good to see they kept the scene with Souma's meeting with Poncho,and Hakuya's response to that. And Souma's use of his poltergeist skill is top level already :) |
 |
CeddyyBearr said: Well,Souma's reason for welcoming Poncho so exuberantly will hopefully be clear pretty soon,and as for the "final"girl in the harem,hmmmmm,maybe ;)So the selection was exactly the few characters highlighted in the last episode. I am surprised about Poncho's talent. When I read "eating", I was like That's it?! But it seem Kazuya seems to see something in that talent that I don't see. But who knows we might explore that a little more later. Now it's only a matter of time for the final girl to join the harem some time soon (I hope) |
|
| So yeah, it was a talent show episode. I'm interested in some skills, besides this kingdom is also lacking in extraordinary talents. |
| As Stark said above, this episode felt like the actual start of the show. It made the anime a little bit more interesting, I just hope that the next one has some action in it because it would probably end up being boring otherwise. |
