More of a proper adventure episodes rather than the usual duel shit we've seen so much of this season.

However, this anime still seems to have characters with strange personalities and even perverted ones. I mean, seriously, I don't expct much from this show at ths point. At least Rick has a party this episode to deal with the latest monster.

Of course the strongest party should live in a luxury castle, even if from the outside it looks like demon lord castle LOL

I'm glad that Rick's skill can only be activated under special circumstance because it means most of the time that Rick fight, it's his actual stength without being enhanced by skill.

Look like the tournament arc is coming, when there's a colosseum, there's a tournament arc. At this pace the anime might end at tournament arc, but I want to see more!

Now that we're past the testing arc, we can get to the more interesting parts of the story - actually getting to where they are going to go after Kaiser Alsapiet.

And even though Rick is only level 'E', the fact that he was able to block that attack by Alicerette, as well as kill the Red Wyvern I think has proven that rank for him is meaningless. That being said, Rick brings another advantage to the table, and that's all his contacts and inside information of the Guild he has from working as a receptionist for like 15+ years.

Hopefully the story will continue to improve, and maybe even something fun happens with Rick and Reanette

The best part of this anime is still the opening. I dig the salaryman singing karaoke vibe. Its a welcomed treat from the constant stream of little girls sucking on helium you usually get.

I'm kind of confused how the story has jumped from the MC at the hero testing/academy to them suddenly hunting for these crystals (and I couldn't tell if it was a flash-back at first).

I'm enjoying the humour though, and I loved when the lady freaked out over the wyverns 😂

Rick inviting Laurotte over is like a kid inviting their school friend over and having to deal with your batshit crazy family. It’s a miracle he made it out of there alive. Well I guess technically he DID die with Broughtson’s impromptu training and just revived 😂

2 things of note came out of that. Laurotte finally got Rick thinking that Reanette might not be out of his league. Both consenting adults, what’s a little age gap but some spice lol? The other thing is the infinity stones being needed to access Alsapiet’s lair. Plot feels like it went forward fast af from the flashback ep last week lol. We finally have a proper story on our hands though which is nice. Show felt a little aimless at the start.

Poor Rei got roped into a wyvern hunt with Rick, one things for sure she won’t be judging someone by their age again. Rick made quick work of that wyvern, now she looks up to him 😂. Also Rick finally realises he’s strong? we might actually be getting somewhere with this show now.

Angelica coming back next week with a new outfit too?? My interest is piqued now.

After 4 episode threads full of people complaining about the MC being stupid for not realising how strong he is, we finally get the golden moment. Punching the head off a red wyvern must be quite satisfying! Now let’s hope the Parrying MC of this season’s other such show figures it out soon too…

Well, CR was late with it. But I must say I enjoyed this one. Of course they live in some Demon Lord's castle, they probably offed the poor SOB and took it over. The inside looked pretty nice BTW. Feels like the real story is now starting & we got a clue to Rick's Ability also.

Laurotte is a real homie trying to be a wingman for Rick. So his skill can only be activated under special conditions, expected something like that but still doesn't fix the mess last week's ep caused.

"I really am strong!" our MC FINALLY realized he's strong, I hope the parry show MC can do the same.

I'm a bit confused; if the most powerful monster, 'Kaiser Alsapiet,' is in the last floor of a distant dungeon that only opens using the six gems, then it doesn't pose a threat. I thought they wanted to defeat it because it would come back or something.

Anyway, it was a good episode. Though now that I know Reanette is not older than 18, it's strange to see Rick trying to get closer to her. And the age difference between Laurotte and his wife left me stupefied.

Another fun and solid episode.

Btw, an elf trying to flip another elf's skirt....lol?

New episode looks like will include the TWIN-TAIL blonde-girl!!!? OwO
I can't wait... 😭😭😭
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.

The first Jewel has been found and a new party member has arrived!
Rei pose as a good party member, being a F-rank adventurer. She was impressed by Rick and others’s adventurer abilities. Thanks to Crimson Jewel, they can use Nature Compose Magic to find the remaining five jewels. I expect a huge battle between Orichalcum Fist and Kaiser Alsapiet in the Demon Lord’s castle.

My favorite characters so far are Reannette Elfelt and Rick Gladiatol. With much training, Laurotte-san can prove effective in Orichalcum Fist party.

Opening theme is somehow like Re:Monster opening, but the ending theme is original and I love it as much as OP theme.

Laurotte being invited by Rick to the mansion of Orichalcum Fist, there's a lot of eccentricity going on around the place that he's seeing for the first time, even being attempted training from Broughston so much so that he can't quite escape out of it. But at least if there's something that the friend is good at, is being a wingman for Rick to get closer to Reanette. And said friend of Rick's getting briefed by Orichalcum Fist on Kaiser Alsapiet's plot with the 6 Jewels, he is a viable asset to help them investigate on his end.

Broughtston, Alicerette and Rick going on a dangerous quest, and they need a party, so Rei Lucas on her derelict duty in the adventurer's guild, is tasked by the gulidmaster to join them. While Mizett gets stupidly busy trying to see Reanette's panties, with a one-up on her stealth to destroy his plaything, the buik of wyverns being cleared by both Alice and Broughs is nothing to be surprised at, much less Rick being One Punch Ossan that Rei didn't even need to lift a finger against the creatures.

Anyways, the first of the 6 Jewels of Cherry Blossom is retrieved, and the next...is in an arena.

The story finally gets going, though how will it take us, remains to be seen.

Yeah, the monster is just chilling in their home and they want to kill it just because of some legend

Honestly, Laurotte's wife might be the older of the two. A forty year old guy pulling young tail like that when he's just a clerk is... unlikely.

For the girls it feels deliberate. They just make every single one of them absolutely insufferable to make Alisa and Reanette look even better by contrast

I loved last episode, though parts were super cringey. This one was less cringey, and I appreciate that, but it didn't engage me as much as some previous eps have.

Meh, that's normal for a series. Some episodes are mostly setup for later developments.

Wait, im hoping my math is off but isnt Laurotte the same age as Rick? Which would be 32 so if his wife is 20 years younger than him she's 12? I know it's anime but holy shit. Other than that this was a good episode. It was funny to see another normal human experience the S rank training regiment

the humor in this show is incredible, the characters are well thought out

the girls are adorable, especially alicerette, she's hilarious just firing off magic at laurotte like that. The orc telling a wyvern to "move out of the way" was hilarious and Rick just constantly being underrated has been funny as hell.

Reanette with a pony tail is unbelievably peak.

it's just a fun easy watch. 5/5

Decent episode although not as good as some past ones. Rick's fellow geezer adventurer getting put through the paces by Orihalcon Fis and then being Rick's wingman were amusing. Rick getting to show off a little confidence and obliterate that wyvern was great. Kind of iffy on the prospect of a tournament, with the way his rank test was that felt sort of like a mini-tournie going up against successively stronger opponents even if they were no match for him. I'd rather he go on some missions with his party. Hopefully there are some S-rank tier enemies at the tournament at least.

Me: I really don't like that they craft automatic guns in a fantasy setting, but I guess I can roll with--

Elf Hero: Anyway, so here's how you aim and fire this RPG!

Just have to laugh at it getting that dumb. Although the elf's attempts at being a perv fall flat. I don't say that as a prude, it's just kind of lame and unfunny. Weakest character of the group for me.

Okay, Rick has confirmed his strength. Now he needs to go monster hunting so he can get some actual fighting experience. Overwhelming strength is moot if you don't know how to properly use it. As various anime has demonstrated to us time and again.

Have you ever considered that his wife could be 52?
