LMAO..... Kelvin really wants to fight those yuusha. He even acted like a villain for convincing them that he is a real bad guy.

Bandit episode.

Kelvin cleaning up the mess in order to pave way for the heroes to take credit.

Guess he's only interested in strong enemies.

We finally got to see a glimpse of Sera's power. Kelvin got himself into presumably a bit of a mess with some heroes, purely because he just can't help his obsession. We'll see how the whole situation progresses in the next episode, hopefully this stunt won't leave Kelvin to deal with some unforseen consequences.

Victor's loss, and Sera's inclusion into Kelvin's party as the newest member is a huge help.

And here, it starts Sera's journey venturing to the outside world, and Kelvin's obsession for rice as they descend into the Water Country of Toraj...not without some trouble from the state's infamous band of "Black Wind" bandits. That, Sera can easily handle on her own, and seems like their boss is the only worth of interest between the strong members.

Trycen's Christoph being a national icon to take down the Black Wind (and then become its leader), and since the heroes are nearby, they might as well take...or be given all the credit thanks to guildmaster Mist (from Kelvin) and Melfina's information, just because he didn't want to fight mere enemies, but clearing off strong ones and leave just enough for the heroes.

The un-acquainted Summoner being the villain, Kelvin really likes the villain life.

I think this is the best episode yet.

First of all, the two guys that are boss of the bandit gang are hot, too bad one of them doesn't take off his mask (but he shows nice muscle anyway). I know I shouldn't praise bad guys who kidnap and traffic human (or elves) but it's a fiction so let me have my guilty pleasure.

Second, I love that Kelvin is strong enough to NOT kill his enemies. I think it's actually a responsibility of any overpowered protagonists to defeat enemies alive. I'm still mad that Kelvin didn't save Victor even though Victor didn't ask for a help, but keeping Victor has more pros than cons to me.

Third, yes, a showdown between hero group and Kelvin group, I already said that it looks like Kelvin is walking forward to the path of being a demon lord himself, so this is interesting. Melfina doesn't want those two group to meet, maybe because the stage hasn't set up yet. She might want them to be in a final battle, in an ultimate showdown style, but Kelvin is not gonna wait, he want to have fun. In fact, it might do good to hero group too when they realized that they're too weak, they're gonna try harder, much more harder to catch up with Kelvin.

Finally, I love hero group, they're interesting enough to be protagonist, but keeping them as side characters work as well. And the leader hero is hot in a traditionally sense, brave, fearless, borderline stupid, and has a conservative way of thinking like girls should be on the back, not on the front of the battle. I've to admit that the trend of isekai anime right now is a twist, psycho, mindbroke, betrayed hero, but this hero seems innocent and virgin...

PS. the power of rice! Even though Kelvin forget his previous life, he still has an urge to eat rice!

Lmao kelvin really chopping at the bit to fight the hero’s party. Pretty clever way to trick them. I’m glad sera is settling in nicely too. Last week was actually pretty sad to see victor die, but she’s in good hands now.

Well overal the episode was a good depiction of what happend in the manga with some minor details changed that does not matte. Still the anime misses somthing that im not shure how to describe. Well i try. Its sad that the anime doesnt try to add more eye jewelery and basicly just focuses on story it self.

The show was fun to begin with but the addition of Sera just made it way more fun. She's basically a female Kelvin with the same urge to fight strong opponents.

Interesting to see what Kelvin has up his sleeve for the hero party.

Man I want to see what Melfina looks like.

Everyone’s got fresh gear! Sera looks very cool in Queen’s Terror and Arondight is pretty sick (RIP to my guy Victor). Gerard’s Dáinsleif looks sweet too! But Poor Kelvin, he was so tired he passed out on Clotho lol. I bet sleeping on Clotho would be like sleeping on a waterbed or something haha.

Melfina better come back with that avatar (very excited to see what she looks like) before Sera and Efil make their move lol. Gerard and Clotho know what’s up! Anyways, I’m glad Sera got to see the ocean but I’m sad Victor couldn’t see it with her.

I figured those Black Wind goons wouldn’t be shit. Sera tipped that big fella’s hammer over and crushed him with it haha. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised Christoph was their boss, he was suppose to have taken them out in the first place. Christoph and his goons would be a problem for the Heroes but luckily Kelvin got to ‘em first. That wasn’t even a fight, that was just an ass whoopin lol.

It looks like there’s a Hero who’s a tamer too. Maybe Clotho can make a new friend! But it seems Kelvin’s got something planned for these guys. I guess they’re gonna be the “Black Wind” and just test them? Though if they’re all around lvl 50ish, they’re still not gonna be shit compared to Kelvin and the gang.

Edit: Summoner and Tamer are different! My bad haha

Kelvin is such a fresh air for an isekai protag. Unlike 99% of other OP characters, he's excited to fight. He doesn't second guess his power or anything, he just wants to beat ass and take names. And I love every minute of it.

This anime is such a dark horse of this season. I had little hopes for it, but every episode it gets better and better. New girl is adorable as hell, the slime is cool, gerard is an awesome character, efil may be a token elf (and her name is Life backwards LoL) and sure they pulled a konosuba in taking the goddess, but this anime is fantastic as far as isekai is considered.

The CGI doesn't bother me as much as it may bother others (I'm more appalled by hataraku maou sama's new animation style). And the animation outside of the cgi is smooth enough for me to enjoy

9.5/10. Cannot wait for the next episode. Only reason it's not a 10 is because i want the next episode now!

Censoring everything not "family friend" is not a way to be true to the source material.
Almost everyone that died in the source material didn't die in the anime, the scene between the MC and the elf was totally cut.
I don't know about the LN but atleast in the manga the characters are 1000000000000x more expressive than the anime, the most critical character trait of the protagonist was cut or badly adaptated (his battle maniac attitude) this was what made him a more interesting character than other isekai's MC and the anime destroyed it.
This is not a good adaptation by any means.

Kelvin forgot the details of his previous life; he retains the generic memories of a reincarnated Japanese, including the instinctual yearning for rice!

Many years ago [back in the 1980s] I got a badge at a convention that reads "Lawful Good does too mean stupid."
Enter the Hero, stage right.
Someone has to give Kelvin a decent fight, and someone needs to get a tad less cocky; why not take care of both in one sitting?

What I'm enjoying immensely in this show, including the fight junkie attitude of the MC and that he's not some crazed sekz maniac like someone else this season, is the character design.

Every main enemy, from bandit group in ep2, bandit group of this ep, Victor (especialy cool, he was very likeable, to bad).... had awesome design. It begs for their stories to be told.
Main group too. Some very cool armor and toys to bash skulls with.

Lots of efford for a single episode characters of seasonal isekai and I apretiate it.

This is my first time coming back to discuss an ep in over 5 years.
And this episode feels extremely rushed, and is missing fight scenes.

I like the show and the concept a lot, but this episode rubbed me wrong because it feels like the ones making it are skipping fight scenes to save on budget.
I have read the LN and the Manga for this, and even the manga had better fight scenes. The novel went a little too much into the fight scenes but the point is that the MC is supposed to be a battle maniac. The bandit scene panned away from the fight and just shows them flying off by example, in other media it detailed how sara would fight and how she dealt with the pair that attacked her and how they were supposed to be a coordinated pair. This is supposed to go down over a bit more time with the "boss" of the group realizing they F'ed up as it happens. Then it goes to the interrogation, which was skipped when it is sara using dark magic to interrogate them. Then further up they obviously skipped how sick that one guy is and what he really does to the captives, like I wanted to kill him from the novels. Then we get to the fight against black wind, and they skip over how his party splits up the work and works them over.

I am trying to love this anime as much as I loved the books but wow they are glossing over the fight scenes and character development, I am hoping they at least cover whats coming better.

Well this episode was crap. Tired of that rice crave isekai stereotype. Whats the point of having equipment if you dont even use it? I like that Sena kinda has her own backstory but its rushed. Why tf does she know about boats and oceans but not about fishing? The mc's plans are messed up too. The fuck you thinking when you're trying to fight the hero party but act like you're trying to keep a low profile? Not to mention the "main" villain in this is level 70 while apparently the hero party is around level 50.

I don't care about spoilers, but I will respect those who don't. I've read the following story and I won't watch the next chapters, for a few simple reasons. I don't like dissimulation, I don't like farce and I hate lies. As an author, I would never make my main character resort to this to have a simple fight. The reaction of the hero and his group didn't please me either. I would never make them bow their heads to a liar, I would make them stronger to the point of humiliating the disgusting deceiver. Kelvin turned into a bad character and I lost a lot of my interest in the series after I watched this fight.

Wow what a surprise to see that Kelvin wanted to kill two birds with one stone. They attacked the bandits from black wind while they were on their way to the place that has rice - Kelvin was craving for. They got to the blackwind headquarters and eliminated all the members while setting up an attack on the heroes who were meant to help clean up. That's how you know MC is a real battle junkie : I also like that he isn't that typical hero trope that is all righteous and unwavering in self confidence. Seems like this series isn't all copy paste.
