An arm wrestling contest?! I was kinda surprised that Nina was able to win even as she was blindfolded. This girl's got some arm strength! She's got a big appetite too.

Found this episode pretty amusing with the humor. I think for most parts, Nina is really fun to watch with the way she interacts with others.
Oh goodness that cliffhanger D:

The second Nina started talking about her teacher, I instantly knew that it was best boy Favaro lol

The first half was really fun with seeing Nina own all those dudes at arm wrestling, but seeing the king (That was SO him) match her strength was surprising O_O And seeing Gabriel and the others again was nice to see too and now the hype surrounding the kid with Azazel has increased

But that cliffhanger D: and I'm terrified for Azazel too dammit >.<

Favaro got mentioned!! So he is Nina's teacher. I hope we see him soon. She's very strong. She was on a 15 winning streak. Then she arm-wrestled a mysterious guy and he was quite an opponent. It definitely was Charioce. He's strong too. Now Nina is off to save Azazel. That cliffhanger.

FAVAROOOOOOO! Didn't know that a simple name drop could make me hype.

Azazel is fucking awesome in this so far, i seriously hope he doesn't end up dying by the hands of the ruler.

Somehow Nina eating a corn cob made me laugh hard.

The handsome guy who do the arm wrestling is the king himself right? They have the same face but their expression is so different, the king's face always look so mad and evil lol.

Funny episode that ended with a cliffhanger.
Loved how Rita's hand was so happy to see Kaisar
Was that really the king? I wasn't sure, but if it's him, funny as hell! That moment when Nina knocked him to the ground. Interested to know his story as well.
And of course, Favaro when are you coming up!!

EDIT: it's the king!!! :D

Lots of great stuff in this episode.

I wonder if that stranger actually was Charioce or something like a lost twin? Or maybe the real one while the Charioce sitting on the throne is a fake?

Nice to see some more of the higher ups in heaven.

Nice mention of Favaro. Even Rita lost her calm, which rarely happens.

Lost my shit when Rita called Rocky her's and Kaisar's child.

Bacchus saying only gods can wear the bounty hunter bracers. But didn't both Favaro and Kaiser have them in the first season?

Need. Next. Episode. NOW!

Seriously though, I don't know how Nina can cope with that 'condition' of hers, if even thinking of a cute guy can make her transform. She's going to be struggling with Azazel, Kaisar and now the king around.

Nice episode. Funny interaction between Rita, Nina and Bacchus + Hamsa. I knew it was Favaro when she started talking about the teacher.

Nice pacing ... fast and suddenly Kaisar meeting with Rita and Nina when they just talked about him.

About Charioce and the arm wrestling ... we need to pay attention to the rings. He still had some other rings left on the fingers. I doubt both - if they were different characters - would have exactly the same rings. Maybe in the previous episodes the focus was on his hand some time.

The way Nina described her teacher made it pretty obvious it was Favaro, hopefully we'll get to see how they met. I want to see that crazy motherfucker again. The end of this episode was hype, can't wait for next week!

Watched this episode on my TV instead of on my laptop, and that seems to make a big difference for this show. Nina's antics and expressions come out so much better on a larger dedicated viewing screen. Then again, Nina was just great this episode anyway.

Maybe they're going for something of a 'man in the iron mask' setup.

Certainly not convinced that the handsom arm wrestler was the king. I am also still wondering what happened to Jeanne and whether she's somehow related to one of these two (they look alike).

Sury said:

Yup, I suspect a translation error there, and for Bacchus to mean something like that the bracers can only be granted to someone by a god.
Sury said:

So that ship is still going strong too. They also seem to not have forgotten about eachother after all, as the way they greeted eachother made one strongly suspect they at least talked regularly over the last ten years.

STILL can't remember how he lost his hand though.

Still no Favaro in sight ;( Honestly he carried the show for me in s1 and him missing after 3eps is hurting my enjoyement a bit. Still this was a very good episode and Azazel's death flag at the end was rather sad. Hopefully Nina manages to save him.

Well, the boy who accompanies Azazel is looking more like an angel/god with the fact that Gabriel is looking for him and stuff.

I knew even before Nina revealed it herself that Favaro was her master, all that information looked like something he would do. Cannot wait for his actual appearence.
It's nice to see Rita and Kaisar are still in touch. I really thought they distanced themselves considering their differents occupations.

The kind seems to be very reckless, he gave a ring who could actually reveal his identity to an stranger without second thoughts. He was lucky Hamsa wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed.
His battle against Azazel looks hype.

They did a good job covering up the looks of the king disguised as well as his personality, the only reason we can conclude he's the king is that there is no other supporting/main character voice actor that matches the description ^^

Also I noticed FAVAROOOO is listed as Main character on voice actors, so we will definitely get to see him a lot somewhere in the future

Great episode.

That arm wrestling match was fun to watch. Nina barely putting in any effort until that handsome guy showed up.
Nina sure loves to eat. Favaro being her teacher was cool.
LOL Everyone's reaction.

Rita is the best. Always love seeing her on screen.
Azazel going for the kill. This is gonna be a tough battle.

Man this episode was great. We got Nina arm wrestling the shit outta everyone. That was such an awesome scene imo. Tbh though, I was kind of surprised when Nina casually dropped that Favaro was her teacher. I expected it to be someone else given that there's plenty of bounty hunters, unless there aren't.

But shit got real towards the end with the king challenging Azazel. Can't wait for next episode!

Yeah, I love Nina. The greatness of the animation also adds to her likability even further too.

I wonder if that one brief shot of her that was in the last trailer before the season started is current time or from a flashback. In that shot it looked like she was probably still trying to find her way after blaming herself for succumbing to that demon's corruption last season that made her lose control and unwittingly kill all those knights and how that angel she highly respected got killed when he sacrificed himself to save her.

For the longest time I thought that Nina was actually Favaro's little sister or something, but sensei? Ah well, I'll take it.

Azazel's in a bit of a pinch.... And whats with Charioce pretending to be a pheasant? Was he scouting, or just happened to pass by?

Hoping Nina will see him for what he truly is soon though.

Finally, some references to Favaro, even though it surprises me that he was Nina's mentor, especially considering that she's a dragon and all (like, how did that ever happen?). Azazel vs Charioce will be hype for next week though, that's for sure.

So the king Charioce is as strong as Nina? Is he a dragon too? And which grave was it he visited? I'm now even more curious about his past (that wasn't a twin brother since he has the same rings on the left hand when he is on the throne)

I know Azazel is not really kind with humans but the way he looked at the holy child, it was the face of a father gazing at his son, and same remark when he patted his head. I really think they want us to root for him.

And about faces expressions, Nina has quite a bright range, MAPPA is really doing a great job in this regard, with her, Rita and Azazel.
