dude is wholly against slavery. but then the slave trader tells him "it's not slavery. think of it as someone who is contractually obligated to do what you tell them to do. they are prisoners of war, or individuals who were illegally kidnapped, criminals, or people who can't pay back their debts"

in other words, they're the literal definition of SLAVE

but what does mc do? he says, "oh, that's not bad at all. that's not what i thought a slave was"

then he says "Don't call me master", and they go on to call him master non-stop...

jesus. fucking. christ. quite literally some of the dumbest shit i've ever seen in anime (and probably al tv/movies regardless of medium/genre)

When I saw the amount of comments I thought the show was being quite liked, only to find that many of the comments were about the slavery part... classic xD.

Anyway, I finally decided to watch it and catch up and I must say I am really enjoying this show. It's a fun and nice watch.

Sora Amamiya, Ai Kayano, Nao Touyama... Not gonna lie, they were the ones that drew me to watch the show in the first place haha.

I really like the goddess, I love her design and she is very cute. I love Sora Amamiya voicing her and how she is the complete opposite of Aqua haha.

It's always great to hear more from Ai Kayano, especially with a more main role. I'm happy for that.

And of course, I'm so damn weak to Nao Touyama's voice <3. I can't help it, she sounds so damn cute! I think Maria is going to be my best girl if she isn't already.

Looking forward to more!

@SkyLETV Indeed. It seems very few understand that it's simply a harem shortcut that doesn't mean real slavery - you don't see them having lumberjack slaves, or something.

Though that would actually be interesting. An actual adult anime. Where both sides of a war hold captives from the other side as slaves. They could have had that in Berserk.

The one show that treats slavery realistically, and not just like "oh there's slavery we must spend the story on ending this," was the TV series Rome from 2005, a show that was awesome in every aspect, with the world's largest set piece, the buildings and streets made to depict ancient Rome. One of the main characters, Pullo, is the son of slaves, which is just treated as matter of fact. He was in the legions and helped capture slaves in Gaul. Everyone knew that the slaves came from societies where their people also had slaves, and former slaves owned slaves themselves.

(So it was on every continent on Earth, among all tribes and then nations. Arabs, Africans, Turks, Indians, etc. Starting with that you wouldn't just kill your enemies in combat, but if you let them live what would you do with them? Not lock them up in a building and just pay for their food forever, without having them do work, that's for sure.)

I don’t know if it’s the fact I have been reading a lot of other mangas but this series is incredibly boring and bland. Feels like a filler ankme for this season
