Kaoru taking responsibility to adopt a kid. Wow.

Anyways, I think they deserve their hot bath time to relax themselves. Kaou is such a role model and she continues to play that role throughout this epsiode. Adopting someone does put more responsibility on her shoulders though.

It's so sweet to see Kaoru adopt a child and raise her, It was also great to see her and the gang be able to relax at a hot spring

A hot spring that Kaoru wants to rest in, the rest also wants to experience what Kaoru did back in her past life, though romance talk is out of the question. But several kids hiding around to escort them to their village, it sure looks suspicious that they're inviting them...and Kaoru sure invited herself to a fight, no matter the circumstances. A table full of men, it's not a bachelorette match-making party, but rather something more pressing, like keeping bandits out of the village...which Fran has her warrior game on and exposes their plot, plain and simple.

The truth is that the village is severely underpowered to fight back against anyone retaliating their village, and Kaoru puts her rest on hold for the rest to teach the villagers on combat offense and defense, including traps to stop the bandits, to end it all in a day's work. And once again, a dip back into the hot springs before going back, though Prince Roland and Emil sure got their karma's worth trying to peep on the girls...because, yeah.

The potion shop is next...

As the saying goes, you give a man a fish you feed him for a day, you teach a man to fish, you feed him for life. Kaoru and the group were rightfully upset about the villagers luring them in and tricking them into fighting the thieves. Plus, even if they had beat the thieves for them, they’re not always going to be around to protect the village so it’s essential they learn to defend themselves.

Everything turned out ok in the end with the young kids putting up a good fight, luckily. Francette gave some good advice about martial arts being defensive, not offensive in nature and I think those young kids will be good protectors of the village for a long time to come

Still really cute seeing Kaoru adopt someone and be a mother figure. Still don’t have a husband, but at least she got a kid lmao

Decent episode about standing up for oneself and village against bandits and any other hostilities. Btw it's nice to see Kaoru raising Reyette after adopting her in the last episode.

Way too clean bandits. It's like they wood be villagers themselves.
If they had the gate closed, how did the bandits even get in if they had a hard time with the poisoned gates. Also that knight bitch just took down a tree for no good reason what so ever. Could have whooped that bandits ass.
Man so many weird funny moments that can make you question this series. Haha

There was really no need to initially depict villagers in need of help as some scheming fellows xD

remember, if you one day decide to open a store selling bath tubs, and don’t know which supplier to choose, then just speak out about the size of the goddess’s tits, and you will receive an unlimited supply of goods

With each new series, Francette in my eyes increasingly consolidates the image of a crazy bitch who is excited by mass slaughter

roland and emil will have "battle scars" to show off their bravery of daring to get close to the girls while enjoying their onsen-time lol can't wait to see kaoru's potion shop; what kinda craziness will follow her there?

Since the villagers are too dumb to think for themselves, she could've told them something like, "from now on, do daily practice with wooden swords and bows for women, to fight off future bandits."

That would probably be more helpful than teaching them how to put up silly bucket traps in the trees.

Looks like a weird fan service...
The only thing I liked about this episode would be about strengthening the village's capability against intruders.
The fan service in the hot spring is mediocre.
What are you doing FUNA?! 🥲
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.

This has really fallen off hard. Worst episode yet and each is worse than the last. I'll be dropping it here. I could barely manage to get through this. I thought maybe we'd get away without the horribly cliche guys peek bath scene but nope. Atleast that bit was minimal. Cringed me tf out. That scene used to be in almost every single anime... that and the beach episode. Literal memes at this point. Why anyone would include that stuff in 2023 is beyond me. inb4 this anime has a beach episode -.-.

2003 called. they want their cringe scenes back.

Surely this was kind of a homage to "Shichinin no Samurai" by Kurosawa Akira.
But I have to say, aside from the lacklustre action this episode had, it almost did not have anything to do with potions xD

nice fanservice onsen, but did the guys get to enjoy it in a different time? seems kinda unfair if they didn't lol

the bandits fight was kinda funny but still strange how they use bamboo swords, wtf

I dont remember this from the manga at all. Is it in the novel, or is it anime original episode?

Also, I struggled to watch this episode. Definitely the worst episode so far, and that's from someone who really enjoys the manga.

@DizietSma It's in both the manga and the novel, but it happens later in the story. Late enough that it's after the anime would be done, so they probably pushed it forwards to add some fan service.

I dislike the arc. Kaoru goes in all "we can't save you we need to set it up so you can save yourself" then does all the heavy lifting to save them.

I mean Kaoru could have just as easily used her powers to create "potion bottles" in the shape of washtubs but why do that when you could also get them for free by calling out the goddess's flat chest.

I'm glad the shady mountain village actually had good intentions for once! It made me laugh that Kaoru thought she was being led into a speed dating ritual.

Ah typical beach episode goes wrong, but not actually at a beach but in a hotspring instead.

They saved a village by teaching them how to fight, very good. Also what was funny was Kaoru calling out Celestine's flat chest to get free wash basins instead of just using her powers to make some herself.

Good episode.

I don't know how we got from enjoying the outdoor onsen to defending a village 2 hours walk away from bandits. But I am here for it.
