Is this anime like the Momotaro and his animal friends Dog, Monkey and Pheasant from the usual folklore, will we see the monkey and pheasant? And it seems like they are diverging quite a bit from the lesson you get out of Momotaro where working together can make the impossible happen but at this point MC 1 slash enemy, plop enemy ded. But its interesting to see how Frau will play a part in the story since in the Chinese astrology rabbit is the opposite of Pheasant(JP)/Rooster(CN) and the one that was tamed with food was Frau instead of the usual dog, monkey or pheasant. Interesting story, me like.
Hhhmmmmmm.......

Just from casual browsing, I am getting the impression that Western audiences are really disliking that the episodes are being released out of chronological order.
Personally, it wasn't a big problem with the first two episodes, but this latest episode is really jarring so I am putting it on hold until I can binge watch it in the proper order.

For those who adhere to the 3-episode rule, are you going to keep watching this or will you drop it? Why?

I like the art style but do we really need three lolis, a trap and a furry? Why couldn’t the hot purple haired one stay an adult 😭

Came to the forum the second I got confused, I knew it was already out of order from the start but now it truly feels out of order. Still interested to see how it goes despite being very lost...

Jucerino is adorable, but I am very surprised that he was behind the destruction of the hawthorn empire, although I believe it was instigated by the sumeragi

didn't even watch this 'cause of what people are saying about the time jumping. gonna wait until the whole show's done airing and watch the episodes in the order the story's actually supposed to be in instead of the mess this director's going with.

I felt like I missed an episode and had to check the episode number. This show is a real mess and leaves me more confused the more I watch it. Lack of backstory for anything is hurting it for me.

After last episode's ending, this one starting off on a completely unrelated note was definitely odd. As expected a lot of stuff was skipped. Not everything has to air in a scrambled order, the director should have just kept it the same as the manga 🤦‍♂️
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

I’m pretty disappointed in hearing they skipped so much manga content this episode, it did feel a bit odd they barely mentioned the city getting destroyed and how Sally happened to run into Mikoto this soon. I really felt the first two episodes were very solid but this one isn’t looking too good. That aside, I did enjoy the episode, we got insight on the side of the Ogres, and introduced to a lot of new characters. Sumeragi is definitely not to be trusted, hopefully Sally picks Mikoto over him, and Juselino was very cute, reminds me of Rika from Higurashi.

The chronological ordering is really started to get to me. I have no idea what's going on anymore and it's not the good kind of feeling.

I didn't really like this much but oh well, I'm interested in how the rest of the series will play out

This whole decision to air episodes in a seemingly random order actually pisses me off.

Was looking forward to watching this series, but if they don't know how to count to 10, I'ma head out.

All they've done is confuse the shit out of people. Completely idiotic decision, and whoever made it should get fired.

I'm utterly confused XD
Just when the episode started I was like “What the heck is going on....?” I felt like I skipped 2 episodes or something.

So, which episode is it supposed to be chronologically?

It would've been better if they at least did an introduction of that sister tagging along with Mikoto.

Good that Sally has a change of clothes. This one is better than the previous one.

More heart conversation...it's weird if you watch this after Edens Zero.


Imagine this thing actually walked instead of teleporting after saying that 🗿

I can understand most of you all not liking this, I too think this order is messing everything up but I think this is what makes it pretty interesting. It kinda falls under “so badly done that I'm curious how it'll continue” though it's not really badly done, everything is fine in terms of animation and story. They just messed up the sequence of episodes. I think if they went with the correct order it would've been really boring and generic that I might've dropped it.

Yes I too would be torn between someone I've seemingly known for a long time and a complete stranger wearing a priests robe, who happens to be a part of a race that wants the destruction of humans. Tbh I don't really enjoy forced dilemmas like that.

Between the shitty episode airing order, the overall quality of the show and the idiotic "dilemma" at the end of this episode.. It's time to call upon the 'three episode rule'

Honestly, if you haven't read the manga, it'd feel like they skipped an episode or something. I understand they wanting to have the broadcast order being different from the chronological one, but honestly it's a bad choice considering that most people watching this haven't read the manga. It would have been better that they stick to the chronological order and give us an ending with cliffhangers. At least we'd still anticipate for a second season and I know I'd be happier with it being that way. Nonetheless, it was another good but confusing episode overall.


Yeah plus not seeing the character development happen of the ogre girl all of a sudden not hating humans is weird. I have no idea what to think of these characters that there's apparently been developments in that I have no idea what they are. It's not fun to watch like this.

Peach Boy Riverside TV has SHUFFLED timeline order.
In D Anime Store site, the series is broadcasted in correct order.
My source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AakEwXMxG0

It's not like they TV won't broadcast the missing episodes, but... yeah, this is indeed very confusing.
Monogatari series, we can enjoy it even though there are so many inserted stories between previous releases.
Princess Principal, the "Case Number" wasn't in order, but the series is still pretty solid and enjoyable as a show.

My conclusion: Maybe they wanted to have people visit the site and pay for the correct order, and the target audience is mainly Japanese.

Thanks for the info, was trying to dive deep into the anime production side of things.

I can understand Haruhi, Monogatari or even Princess Principal doing this manner because the replayability is high for a shuffled order. But this show doing this MAKES ZERO SENSE at all.

Your answer guess is as good as mine.

Poor Hawthorn. Not even his companions care :D

Um, what kind of timeskip are we looking at, here?! They just rescued her and she's already changing that much?!! Kind of sad to see that ogre world seems to basically be: be strong,
kill the weak, to the point that nothing else even occurs to them. Actually, I guess not that surprising :P

I wonder how the ogre would react if she saw Mikoto again.

How ridiculously mouthy and entitled. Eats him out of all his money and thinks he should be grateful for it xD
Sister Millia's got some moves :O
Lul wat. What, Mikoto is out collecting ogre lolis now..

What the heck is up with these ogre females xD
Wow. How quickly he reduced their influence to a fraction of its former strength. They'll be wiped out in short order if they don't figure something out.
Interesting gathering of ogres. All grunts with the generic ogre look, with the strongest among them having a unique look. Priest-ish and old sawtooth gentleman.
Not just lolis, but shotas, too. Ok, author.
I had Sumeragi pegged as the mastermind baddie, but is he actually a good-ish guy?! Either that or it's plots in plots.
Yup, he da baddie.

Good thing she's the god of masks, or asking strange men to pick her up would be dangerous xD This should be hilarious.
Look at this guy over here, flicking and lecturing loli gods. Better be careful, or she's going to make him her pet.
Sumeragi, you sick sadist :p

Meh, don't pick either. One dude is incredibly shady, and the other has chosen the path of hatred. That's a lose/lose. Well, except for the females he strips of powers and collects :p

Weird episode. I feel like they skipped a whole lot of development, and/or are jamming a lot of stuff together.

End of Episode 2: HUGE life shattering shocker, character motivations are unclear, mysteries are set up, one character in particular is traumatized.

Start of Episode 3: We are in a tournament now. Different City, different time. All Trauma is resolved. No explanation whatsoever. Events of last episode are mentioned in one passing sentence.

Is the word "neither" in Sally's vocabulary? Might be an additional answer to that question she asked herself :P
