| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Geez, can't some of the folks get a break from all the chaos in their town? Idk, this episode felt somewhat tense but also contained a lot of the same repetitive storytelling as usual. We got Seth and the crew dealing with the Nemesis threat but also trying to prevent an execution. Doing the "right" thing I guess. |

| This episode was so filled with SJW propaganda, it made decent comedy. |

Piromysl said: This episode was so filled with SJW propaganda, it made decent comedy. Yeah, but it's a real world issue (how immigrants/the other are treated) and art is often a tool used to shine a light on such matters. |

| I dont mind the social aspects. There have been many cases of xenophobic societies, countries, etc. throughout history that treated outsiders poorly or downright hostile so its a pretty normal trope. Now on to more important matters, am I the only one who really wants to yank on Konrads ridiculously long mustache?!? |
| Poor Doc for getting abducted, I guess it's karma for trying to abandon the town in its need. Konrad is sure stirring up the Town's people to hate immigrants, this sounded like our modern reality we live in. Good episode, |

phantomfandom said: I was amazed by the author's ability to erase all his French influence and disguised Radiant as typical shounen genre, until this arc that deal with immigrant issue. Just only with the name and their haircut...i already know this anime using french and middle aged europe reference. - Does Grimm only moves at night? - Why does inquisitor do nothing about the Nemesis? |
| Now Loading..... |
| Okay, this was insufferable. That Konrad is deranged with his unreasonable hate, I wonder who hurt him. And those people too, all too willing to burn a child alive, and to promote a witch-hunt because they are "scared", more like blinded by hate, and stirred by false words without stopping to think about it. At least it's going to be satisfying to watch this Konrad going down. |
 |
| Nothing wrong with a story getting political, but when you depict people against immigration as wanting to burn foreigners alive that's fucking painful to watch. |
| This arc has left me pretty cold. I prefer politics left out of my anime but I know others like a bit of real world problems. The pacing is very slow given how many episodes remain |
| Sometimes, the antagonists can say somethings that are so compelling that I find myself wanting to root for them, until one of the protagonists says something equally or more compelling. I love it when that happens. It shows that the writer has made sure both sides believe they are the heroes to the point that even the audience believes it. This anime doesn't do that. I laughed so hard when the citizens decided to kill all the immigrants without much need for brainwashing. When the people were about to burn the kid, it wasn't hard to guess that they were planning to repeat the scene where Alma saved Seth. The idea wasn't bad, but they could have been more sneaky instead of repeating the scene almost identically. The creatures are too cute to be called nemesis. It makes me want to name a cat Nemesis. In the scene where Seth carried Melie and ran, only his mouth and legs were moving. They completely ignored inertia. Lerche makes fairly decent animations, so I wonder why they became lazy in this anime. |

Just wait for flutist girl to make an "official" appearance :p |

JugoKun said: Kababi said: Born in a poor suburbs btw, where he saw a lot of racism, i advice you to be a little more informed about author's life and the actual French political situation. Tony even quoted some French politics people for the Konrad's speech (cc Manuel Vals), and i doubt you ever gone once in the 93 or in the Nord Pas de Calais, you should think about go there, at least to see how Tony is right about his "SJW propaganda" :pSo? What do his genes have to do with his politics? He was born in France. Whether he is right or not is not the problem. In Radiant, the conflict is too basic for the moment. We have poor, friendly immigrants against the wicked natives. There is no slight difference. :/ |

| Damn! I wanna like Dragunov do something badass! cuz he's a sharp character! our MC is quite incompetent but at least improving slowly. 4/5. |
 |
| Just say immigrant and look at the retards froth at the mouth. |
 |
| Damn Konrd is a bastard... well this was sudden...hmmm |
 |
| Ay lmao, the show went full libtard. Generic villain decided to kill all the immigrants for some reason and generic people listen to him. On the other side, immigrants are so victimized since they showed up to the point that one of them is nearly burned. If the show tried to show the immigrant issue in a fair manner, it failed completely. I can't take this seriously. |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Konrad truly is evil. Seth & Melie have to stop him. |

SeidouTZ said: Don't know why some people were complaining about this episode, afterall discrimination has been a prevalent theme throughout the series. Sorcerer are discriminated, and Seth was also hunted down for being one and discriminated by kids of his age for having horns. Is the way they tacle this type of issues too heavy handed? Perhaps, but is not like anything was subtle beforehand. @Nurguburu i guess ppl see political agenda here but fail to think why jap would care about western politics, by western i mean awrything west from them if it deals with immigrants or immigration it has to be political agenda/propaganda ๐ ppl this days are 2sensitive, awrything is propaganda ๐ we had immigration topics in series way before immigration became issue and issue used in politics its the viewer with politics goggles on who prong politics in to it and not the author |

| Things really got a lot more interesting now that the plot moves with all these different groups: Seth's team, Inquisition (Dragunov and Thaumaturges), the Pied Piper girl (Domitor) with her Nemesis, Grimm, Konrad with riled up people and the immigrants. I like the real world issue they brought into this with people just following Konrad because they fear what they don't understand (immigrants) though I hope they will explain soon why Konrad carries this hate. |
