High risk deserves high rewards tbh. If Takumi really wants to improve his gear, he should be more prepared to take on higher level monsters in their world.

This episode still has comedic moments that I can't take it seriously at times. Sofia is probably the only character that I can kinda take seriously.

Sofia is my favourite character so far I just love how protective she is of Takumi even if it was a misunderstanding this time.

Iron Ore mined ✅ moles exterminated ✅ new armor acquired for the girls ✅ perfect time too because this might be the last peaceful episode we get before Takumi and the girls having to fight Yamato and Akira. I’m guessing they’re the reason the goddess sent him into the past so he could prepare for this battle

Sofia as usual was great in this ep, I love how protective she is of Takumi, kinda gives Raphtalia vibes.

Should be a nice bit of passive income for Takumi to be able to sell the toilets as well.

The war will happen because of toilet, yes, it's the story of this anime. But to be fair I might start a war too if I don't have toilet.

Those refrigerators aren't insulated, they're just metal boxes, which dramatically harms their efficiency. If you wanted to say that the ice magic is strong enough to compensate, then you have the problem of it cooling the entire room.

It's pretty common knowledge that you need to insulate things to keep them cold effectively. Insulated lunchbags, insulated water bottles, etc. This anime/the source manga were never that serious or realistic in the first place, but still.

They're really making the pace faster than ever, and even gave us a glimpse of the year to come... I'm looking forward to it!
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.

Did we even have any doubts he will master everything, surprise everyone, scream constantly, prove he's untouchable, come up with even more magically unbelievable things... Majority of episode is him talking about things he's about to do. Then all of those things either happen off screen or are done and dusted in about three seconds flat.

Within Sidonia, it seems that Akira and Yamato are being used as pawns to advance Sidonia’s agenda, with the two not understanding that Sidonia are the aggressors and the wrongdoers in these conflicts (from the impression I’ve gotten at least). It seems they are travelling to the Kingdom of Samandor and in the future, they will shed a lot of blood. Will Takumi get mixed into this?

Getting back to Takumi, it seems that he’s invented refrigeration in this world (and also Stainless Steel). He has a new product that will be in high demand, and due to the popularity of his toilets, Sidonia has taken note. I do wonder if they will find out that magic comes from Iruma specifically, or if they’ll go through the lengths to hunt him down and find out.

Since Iruma wanted some Mithril and Adamantite, he’s killing 3 birds with one stone, and with ease might I add. Without Sofia, Iruma wouldn’t have the necessary knowledge to accomplish these quests, so it’s good that he recruited her. With this new gear, the group has a lot of potential for even better things.

I wonder if Sofia is gonna try to get another slave to be Iruma’s assistant… I’m looking forward to see what Iruma has up his sleeve next and whether he’ll cross paths with Akira, Yamato, or Akane.

This was more of a build up episode with Takumi improving both the gear and the quality of life for his maids. The summoned heroes are looking a bit eviler since we've last seen them. I wonder if it's brainwashing. Well whatever it is, they're certainly in for a surprise if they tried to attack our MC.

Also Takumi's high speed slip up making him spindash is too funny.

their weakness made them corrupt, i wonder what happened to the female since she was nowhere to be found.
takumi's doing all right with his companions & building so many convenient stuff for them to use.

pretty laid back show but the "action" scenes are probably some of the worst I've seen animation wise. Stand, point, limbs fall off. No real movement just a slide show of tree limbs/roots falling off while the protagonists pose. Tbh the whole show has some lackluster animation that's predominantly still images and slides. At least it's not purposefully a "combat" focused series, it's got more of a "slice of life/comedy" vibe going for it. So at least it has that going for it. Definitely a 6/10 overall tho.

@anh0516 Did you HONESTLY expect logic & facts in a Fantasy Anime'? I'm not sure which was more unrealistic here! LOL

@LeenPhoenixRae Damn, I'm glad the girl kept out of it, because the Empress has DEFINITELY twisted the other two classmates. They look downright bloodthirsty near the end here.

@Sheol01 You said it! I expected them to buff up from all those training, but not to the point they ended up looking feral & close to unhinged and bloodthirsty as you mentioned. If they face off against Takumi & his party, I doubt they'll have an easy time defeating them, but we'll see.

More good times with Takumi and his babe trio, not for Riell tho lol, bro is offered to hang at Takumi’s place but was met with a swift kick in the face, and then upon arriving to the house he was rejected by all three girls, Maple remembered her distaste for him and the two slaves have decided to devote their lives to Takumi despite not being in a relationship with him, real sad boy hours for Riell lol, at least he got a bath.

And ngl the action scenes against those tree monsters didn’t look too hot, it was decent but there was very minimal animation happening, thankfully this doesn’t seem to be an action focused series so it’s not a big deal, but I’m wondering if these “heroes” will make for a difficult battle, hopefully that’ll look better if Takumi and his harem doesn’t wipe the floor with them immediately, would be a shame if so but it would also be kinda funny if after all this buildup they’re total pushovers lol, guess we’ll find out soon.

This anime has some sensible ideas in some places. For example, refrigerators and toilets are a common thing in modern times, but in a low-tech world, they're a gimmick. BUT. A toilet doesn't work without plumbing. Water has to flow. Even purified water. Also, in this anime, they use bardiche (it's some kind of hybrid, you can call it a halberd and a glaive, I've seen them in catalogs, but I forget the name of the types), but they call them spears... they're definitely not spears. And then he makes spears for his maidens. They really are spears. And it's rare. But armor... What's the problem with making armor instead of just clothes? There's a bath for fan service and a house. You can draw it however you want. Or an explanation like in the "Reincarnated as a Sword" where the power of the armor is all in the enchantment. And if the enchantment is broken, no steel can withstand such a blow.
All in all, it's just an ordinary kind of folly with terrible animation. There are good moments, but they do not correct the overall situation. However, the author sometimes comes up with interesting moves. It's worth a look. I also want to see the spider-girl in the next form.

Yup! So far, the story has done a terrible job of portraying the time skip. It’s all over the place, and I, for one, couldn’t tell whether it had been a few months since the MC arrived or an entire year.

LOL! They skipped so much this episode compared to the manga.

Forest arc was non-existent, the mining was just a side note, the friendship with the dwarf... just happened, the sword was no challenge at all, the ninster horse was just a regular one, no new companion, ...

This is only EP5 and they did about Ch25-Ch35 with a lot of omissions, slide shows and side notes.

This is getting worse by the episode.

I don't think this episode was useless because some important things indeed happens, but it was only till the last few seconds that I felt that the story was truly moving fowrard. The Empire is probably gonna engage in a campaign of aggression against neighboring kingdoms and obviously Takumi will have to get involved in some way.

@TheMageDalamar I think I'm a Noble on the Brink of Ruin, So I Might as Well Try Mastering Magic is worse because it plays its tropes straight and doesn't make fun of itself as much as this one. This is still a 6 at best, though.

Sofia presumably is 80 years old but behaves like an idiot 🤦‍♀️ Not charming or funny at all.

Premise of story is quite interesting but execution is poor. I'm not sure if it's anime or source material fault.

"Tsukimichi - Moonlit Fantasy" shares with "Izure..." many tropes, but with much more better storytelling.

Took me 5 episodes to realize the spider's name is Kaede not Maple. Things that in translations truly annoy me.
