Tbh, I'm glad Chiho is becoming more and more important this season. Even though she ran into trouble against a Demon, she faced the danger head on.

It was still great to see her friends and allies stand together. Emi isn't there but we knew she had something important to take of.

0:02 It says 昭和五十七年寄贈 - Year Showa 57 (1982) donation
4:16 Google says "Alla" means “ascend” or “to go up”. 翼 (tsubasa) means "wing".
Suzuki suddenly started speaking in her accent lol. Seeing everything being revealed to her is exciting.
Why would they be after Ashiya tho? I feel like this is misdirection
Amane at the end!
This is getting better!

Odd place to run into the younger sister of Alas Ramus. Not to mention Nord as well. Still like her sister Acieth isn't shy when it comes to action. A human interrogating a demon general has to be the funniest sight ever. Bell and Lucifer sure arrived in the nick of time. This storm is being used as cover for a lot of the enemies moves. But also one for reunions with past allies as well looks like.

Chiho's school becomes a center for the Malebranche demons to act, as Acieth "Tsubasa" Alla reveals that she is like Alas Ramus, a shard of Yesod as her younger sis, escorted by Sato. Turns out, he too is concerned about Emilia being connected to her as her father Nord. The SOS from Chiho is transferred to Maou via Suzuno, and they need all the help they can get to teleport to Chiho's school ASAP. Chiho can only act as a decoy to hold one of Malebranche's leaders of demon Libicocco back while the others race to her school. Rika demands an explanation from Ashiya about the weird things she saw with Suzuno and Urushihara, though the truth will set her back a tough one while Tsubasa carries Maou to Chiho's school.

Both Ashiya and Nord talking in their own language to clear whilst keeping Rika in the dark, and he finally lets her in on the truth, though it's up to her if she chooses to believe what she saw or not.
With Libicocco coming to rampage where he was being dropped at, Suzuno made it to save Chiho, and even worse, the Inlaid Azure Scarves coming to get both Ashiya and Nord, they're surrounded with no area of escape.

The school being a diversion, the act of demons and traitors are coming to get those defected to Earth. Not good...

I love how they kept the Libicoco jokes. Pretty funny down the line.

And here we finally see the tension start rising up. 
Emilia gone and the different factions are starting to appear and push the plot forward.
Next episodes gonna be interesting

Lol one of the best parts of watching seasonals is seeing how you wrong you were with your weekly predictions from week to week. I was so off with Emi’s dad and Acieth story after last week.

I thought Acieth was a time dilated Alas Ramus who had somehow got lost crossing between worlds 😂 turns out it’s just Alas’ older(?) sister. Bigger than her because anime logic. At least I got the guy being Emi’s dad right!

Chiho almost getting killed for not saying the demon’s name right is hilarious. Libicocco’s “I came to rampage” line also might be the hardest thing anyone in this series has ever said. Can’t really blame him for being upset about these new “great generals”

Rikka actually handled learning about Maou and Ashiya better than most. Still took her till the end of the episode to fully accept it, but mad respect for her staying around and doing her best to help out. That’s a ton of information to drop on anyone.

The attack on Chiho’s school being a misdirect is interesting. Getting everyone away from the house to attack Ashiya.. why? And Amane is here! This was a great episode.

This episode packs a substantial amount of plot development to process.

We witness Maou's encounter with Emilia's father, along with the introduction of Alas Ramus's surprisingly younger sister, Acieth Alla (also known as Tsubasa). Emilia's father later visits Maou's place, where Ashiya struggles to elucidate the perplexing situation to an increasingly bewildered Rika.

Adding to the complexity, the demon Libicoco boldly appears near Chiho's school, intentionally creating a diversion to aid unknown soldiers in capturing Ashiya.

Thankfully, the enigmatic beach house owner, Amane, makes a return, suggesting potential assistance for Maou and his companions in this intricate predicament.

This is probably the best episode of this season of Devil is a Part Timer with how the plot of the story is developing. =)

My guess last week on who Tsubasa is was incorrect. Tsubasa's true name is Acieth Alla, younger sister to Alas Ramus. I don't blame Maou from being confused, considering that Alas Ramus is like a toddler and Acieth looking similar to a young teenager, but those questions of his had to be put on hold due to Chiho's school being in danger.

That danger was the appearance of a demon, Libicocco. I did laugh a bit when Chiho struggled to pronounce his name correctly, but his rampage of setting part of the neighbourhood on fire means that he needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.

Acieth dropped off Emilia's father, Nord, at Maou's apartment, which added to Rikka's confusion about what was happening, but I do respect her for listening to Nord and Ashiya's sides of the story about Emilia's true identity and the current situation at hand. Sadly, it seems that Libicocco causing a rampage was actually a diversion for a small army too appear at the apartment, with the intention of taking Ashiya.

With the late returning appearance of Amane from the previous season arriving, this has be pretty excited for the latter half of this season. Here's hoping Amane plays a good part in helping Maou, Ashiya and everyone else in this predicament.

So Tsubasa isn’t some future version of Alas Ramus but instead her “younger” sister, she’s definitely the bigger sister tho that’s for sure lol, and the dude with her is Emi Yusa’s dad which makes things even more weird, where the hell is Emi then lol, we’ll definitely find out but with the current situation it might be a bit before that happens.

Poor Suzuki is confused as hell too with all the insane shit happening around her, definitely feel bad for her but it is also pretty funny lol. And now there’s not only a demon lurking at the school but also soldiers after Ashiya, the demon is at least being currently dealt with but Ashiya is in trouble with no way to fend off that many soldiers, it’ll be interesting to see how they get out of this, if they do. Also ngl that demon guy “Libicocco” looks more goofy than threatening to me but he at least has cool powers to make up for it lol.

While I am glad that plot is progressing they are taking their time with it.
We are already at half the season and only now is it getting more serious. 
Moreover, they are not even trying to hide their true nature anymore to anyone.
I do hope the rest 6 episodes will be nothing than intriguing battles that will take us all the way to Ente Isla.

Time for Rika to learn the truth but well it's hard for her to believe it, can't blame her though. That kid was related to Alas Ramus, I mean they look almost the same so it was obvious. The man with her though, Emi's father eh. Also the enemy was after Ashiya? Why? And look who's back, it's Amane.

The whole idea link thing when they just send a message on the phone makes no sense lol. Just send a normal message i you're in the same world and you gonna contact a phone xD I have no clue how the author wants to make me believe that Chiho is so important in all of this. She just talks to every crazy strong demon or angel and everything turns out fine in the newer seasons. Or she can magically use magic etc.... I just wanna know what exactly happened to Emi at this point.

Not having a full understanding of the Ente Isla lore makes some of this just overall less significant. For example, I have no clue what the Malebranche is.

Regardless, it seems that something big is going down. So we learn that Tsubasa is actually Alas Ramas’ YOUNGER sister, Acieth Alla and her “father” is actually Emilia’s father, Nord Justina.

So a lot is going on. A Malebranche demon known as Libicocco is attacking Chiho’s school, Ashiya is busy trying to tell Rika about what’s going on and at the end of the episode they get jumped. Along with that, the chick that Mao and his friends worked for on the beach is in town, and I’m assuming that’s not a coincidence.

I might need to scroll through some episodes to get some of the lore. If anyone has any recommendations for specific episodes that give the necessary information to follow along with the coming episodes I would really appreciate it if you let me know.

Rika is such a simple cutie. Landlady's hot babe niece is back! Ashiya is the most useless with fighting in the show. I like how Chico puts a Japanese pronunciation on all the demon names!



Enjoying all the episodes so far. I like how the show goes between human episodes and monster episodes.

What's the logic behind Acieth being the younger sister.?
I thought Maou would pass Tsubasa off as the relative he's taking care of Alas Ramus for since that was the excuse Emi made to Rika (to deny her and Maou behaving like a married couple).
Ashiya spills the details of who they are to Rika, who witnessed them floating and flying twice, now. Nord Justina is alive, if Emilia returns, how will she react when she finds out that her father is not only alive but is not at odds with the person she thought had killed him?

There's no point in getting surprised over the fact that Emi or any of them aren't normal humans.. I mean Rika, you just saw two people flying with all their might, right in front of your very eyes just a few minutes ago lol.

Not sure who's planning what, but Chiho should've remained on the sidelines honestly. Would've helped people a lot.
