Man, this episode is all over the place but I have to say, Saitou should prepare himself better mentally. There were also a few close intimate scenes between him and Raelza.

That awkward bed scene though LOL. Saitou's reactions were gold.

The story between the shadow ninja and the witch was so lovely. I really want to see their story more.

If I ever get Isekai'd I'd want to end up in the same bed as Raelza too lol.

It was nice to see the characters who were introduced in previous episodes come together to tackle the Dungeon at the end.

But what happened to the Witch and the Ninja?!?!?! I thought we would see them but I need more of them now!

Let's not talk about the Mushroom or that Awkward Crystal Ball scene...

GOTTA GET THAT ROOMBA!!!!

This is the weirdest episode so far. The humor reminds me of Monty Python.

Ok, the pacing was very weird but at least all of the side characters' stories seems to collide now on Saitou's tunnel (which sound worng saying out loud but you know what I mean).

Also, that's... definitely a spot you can spawn from another world. Yup

Succubus made a bad move going after Raelza's man. Need more of the ninja and witch. Things got interesting at the end. The characters shown in other stories all gathered in the same place. Start of an arc I suppose.

I don't want to be a broken record but the short segments really do take away from this shows potential, I get it was mainly comedy but the segment with the reality tv Hero was overly trashy and same with the stupid penis drug mushroom, took away from the episode for me. The final segment seems promising though maybe we'll get better episodes now that they have a new area to explore. Morlock said something interesting when Saitou arrived that he might be from another world since he had no magic, him being knowledgeable about it seems to say that others have been transported before between that and the vacuum I'm curious what they'll do from here.

Need to know more context on Ninja so I can decide whether I'll like him or not, like why he randomly killing people, even if death is reversible in this anime.

I was so hyped up just from the first few minutes of the show. There's a marriage consultancy in this world... of course there is! And more women are going out on adventurers? Cool! Economic downturn...oh dammit! And MORLOCK-san is at a marriage agency too?!? Poor guy get's dragged out the agency by what could've been his granddaughter Raelza.

The poor succubus might've had pure intentions based on how scared she looked at mighty berserker Raelza. But Succubus was fine in the end because she's free to accept or decline a magical gentleman's love deceleration.

Raelza looks so good in Saitou's handyman's outfit. Potential tomboy?

the Power Wizard reminds me of an overpowered Dragons Dogma character lol

I like how in this isekai, instead of the MC making the world more like Japan, this world already has similarities to Japanese modern day trends, problems, topics, etc.

Lmaoo dude did they just a dick shaped mushroom? Author def got a thing for dick jokes

The mini skits were pretty good actually really liked the witch and ninja one. That would actually be a cool premise for a show.

Wasn’t expecting to see a robo vacuum, so someone else must be there from the real world or have been at one point, really interesting. It kinda feels like the story is just about to start now. Episode ending felt like a movie.

I disliked this episode to the point of dropping the show.

If not for the last scene, where all other characters that were shown until now gathered, which hints towards a proper arc ahead I would have dropped the show.

I just hope that my intuition isn't wrong here and proper arc start.

This episode was structured very oddly, but some of the jokes were hilarious, especially that certain mushroom one.

Looks like an arc will start next episode, as all the parties have gathered, and Saitou is in search of that Roomba.

Mmmm bad day at C2C? The sequencing of this episode was pretty bad. It reminds me of my papers/presentations I turn out the night before they're due lol.

Content-wise, it was pretty wild but a little bit all over the place. Can't say I enjoyed it much.

. . . Did they really just contradict and create a plot hole with Raelza and Saitou? In a previous ep Raelza was shown being introduced to Saitou in a dungeon and the Fairy and Marlock were the ones who invited her to the party's quest to take ona  dungeon where they introduced her to Saitou. She had NO IDEA who he was, period! Yet this ep has us believing they knew each other from the very moment Saitou arrived in their world? What gives? Why create a plot hole like this and change the story? Further more the story's timeline is all over the place from the very 1st ep, this ep also not helping with that. Was it this way in the manga too for the plot hole and the timeline's story all over the place or did they just screw it up with the anime here?

though there are some interesting mini stories i don't fully understand this type of writing I think jumping around from different parties and characters is preventing from making a bind with any of them I hope in the future either there will be some interactions between the characters or the big party would be created because now it feels kinda like a Mish mash of stories than the handy man story

The mini skits continue and most of them were funny. It's clear that Raelza likes Saitou and still won't admit it but I like how the fairy teases her about it.

The roomba was so random but it looks like an arc may start in the next episode with a new pathway that opened up called "Saitou's Tunnel."

The first drop of the season, the first episode gave a sense of a casual live in an isekai but the second and third episode goes full with random out of place fanservice that makes it hard to watch,and then the MC wants to make a gun but refrains to do it due to the tecnology affecting this world but  we see that they have something like youtube and there is a robotic vacuum sorry but this is as hard to watch as Realist Hero in the way that both series don't make sense with how those worlds work or just add somethings just for the convenience of it.

They.... didn't? I rewatched the beginning of the first episode and they said something like "You wanted a skilled thief, right?". we don't get much info on what happened after the transportation so he could have introduced his skills and they simply took him as a thief because they heard he could pick locks. 

and only morlock said he's not from this world when Saito first arrived. what do you mean they knew each other from the very beginning?

It's sad to see people crying about what little fan service we get nowadays.

And no, ffs. The MC didn't want to introduce guns into this world, not because of the technology or whatever, but simply because they're too violent and do society no good.

There's really no such thing as a fan service anime (except for maybe hard ecchis). Fan service was always something integrated into shows.

The problem is not the fanservice, but how it is being used it feels so out of place.

From 400 Year old Witch who looks good for her age with a shadow that connects to hell, to a False Hero Party that got livestreamed doing the naughty. There were a lot of good segments this episode. My favorite had to have been the suspicious sucking required mushroom that was highly addictive. The tease at the end with all of these characters meeting up to explore Saitou's Tunnel is exciting!

That ninja x witch then the ecchi hero party are truly caught me off guard. I can't believe they also add that here lmao. Power wizard was cool. Matchmaker room also cool. Then the great dwarf blacksmith too, wish to see him more often. Don't forget about Truck-kun become the sole reason Saitou being stranded on those world and loved by those woman warrior, Raelza. Then the tunnel to the new era of adventures. Everyone gathered around and form such a nice end. Ngl this is such an interesting episode. I wish its stay good till the end of season...

I rewatched it too and you're right, I guess it was the impression I got.This is why the time jumping doesn't work, not only did I mistake that but this explains Raelza's reactions with Saitou in the ep, this must've  been soon after Saitou arrived as Raelza was clearly embarrassed/shy about what happened between them but we wouldn't be able to piece that together till 2 eps later... The short ep format can work, I just wish they'd do it in proper order of timeline point a to b.

Normally you save rushing through content to get to a certain point for the end of the season… but I guess nothing is stopping you from doing that at episode 3.
