Taking the power of gluttony is not just a responsibility but also a huge risk for Fate. On the positive, he admires Roxy so the relationship seems to be positive. Speaking of Roxy, it seems she has a big responsibility to as a head family member.

Seems they're building their relationship one step at a time. Somewhat slow pacing but probably for the better since that's a core part of the show.

Even in a decrepit state, skills are what makes a person, and Holy Laplace's teaching may seem innocuous, but it's literally their fate, as per the kidnapped orphan of Sahara.

Of course, how could Fate wrangle his way through a serial kidnapper while protecting Sahara, and Greed helps in navigating Fate out of trouble. And Fate managed to get the answer he wanted, which the Vlerick family is still to blame. No matter, Fate rescuing Sahara out to have a meal, then sending her back to the orphanage where she came from, something which he had learnt from his father. Fate is still underdressed to work at the Hart family, though rumors have speculated that the noble family is not what it seems.

The Hart family seems nice from the outside, as do Roxy, and she brought him to her father's grave to greet him, he being downed by a Divine Dragon in Galia. But Fate could not touch Roxy for his Telepathy skill would activate, and Fate's work is quite the norm, other than his Gluttony skill always constantly making his stomach hungrier. Roxy vowed that Fate's addition to the family would help change the family manor's situation, though he's always on a ticking time bomb for his life: to be hungry or be hungried. To be fed more souls from killing monsters, the devouring grows stronger the more Fate kills, thanks to his Hunger Boost ability. If the hobgoblins didn't help, then a goblin king would do, again increasing Greed's level as an offering from Fate's stats.

It's a tit-for-tat exchange from Fate's stats to Greed's new powers unlocked, and hopefully for the better.

In a world where children are abandoned for lacking impressive skills, it's a harsh reality. It seems that without the protection of the Goddess Laplace, one's skill level dictates their fate, at least if you buy into the myths.

Fortunately, Fate intervened to rescue Sahara, with Greed expertly dismantling the bandit's sword. On one hand, the Gluttony Skill proves to be remarkably practical, albeit at the cost of consuming the souls of the living and appropriating their abilities. Otherwise, Fate is left with an unquenchable hunger only sated by killing. And it's possible this craving will intensify as his strength grows.

So, as Greed levels up, he can assume a different form, while Fate allocates all his stat points to him. These two share a symbiotic relationship of give and take, although forfeiting those stats might be a small price to pay for the formidable ranged weapon that Greed's new magical bow form offers.

I'm a little bit nervous when Fate give Greed all of his stats. What if Fate lose his sword? What if Greed want to be owned by another person and left Fate?

Fate getting a crash course in what having the gluttony skill is all about. He rescued that little girl very well at the beginning of the episode. Rushing to save her after hearing her thoughts with telepathy, we see that the little girl is from a nearby orphanage and has been taken by guys working for the so called Holy Knights to be their plaything. It's really disturbing and shows what a cruel world we're dealing with here. Fate listening to his sword of when to attack this kidnapper and kill him easily. Showing that girl a little joy before taking her back to the orphanage. Fate now officially working for the Hart family and closely with Roxy herself. It's nice that Fate has a new job other than being the gate guard and kicked around by those tower Holy Knights. Roxy definitely likes him and their close working relationship could blossom into something more. Fate however right now has to deal with his gluttony skill acting up, it's hungry for souls now that he's gotten a few already. Needing more and more to be satisfied and not attack anyone on sight. Fate venturing out to kill some goblins, leading to that goblin King that gave Fate the health regeneration skill. Now with his stats being able to give them to his sword to unlock a new form, a wicked bow that finds its target no matter what. I'm very interested to see this new bow in action more and seeing Fate try to control his gluttony.

Well as I said in the episode 1 discussion, Fate is starting to become an op-character.
He is starting to realise the true nature of his Gluttony skill and starts to hunt down all the goblins and hobgoblins he sees and now he has another op-skill in the form of his partner 'Greed'.
Now Fate has 'Gluttony' and 'Greed', 2 of the 7 deadly sins, he sure going to be an unbeatable person.

So Greed gets stronger by stealing stats, Fate will have to restart again but should be easy with his skills and greed. Roxy's father died which will now probably lead to trouble with the knights.

Little sidestory saving a little kid and getting a technique out of it. Well, he managed to get closer with Roxy and the Hart Family. But, one thing is messing with him. His skill which needs to eat. I liked the sharing part with his weapon greed. The power system is fun, but hopefully the animation takes a turn.

Significantly weaker second episode than first. Bunch of exposition combined with poor animation and bunch of static shots is starting to become very noticeable and jarring. Even when there's action going on it's so hard to figure out what's going on. Just bunch of flashes and lines.

Nice, we are going somewhere with this series.

Roxy looks unnatural for some reason. Her movements seem unnatural.

Most characters are good looking for some reason. 🤔
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.

if it wasn't for the talking sword and the possibility of him attacking Roxy there'd be nothing interesting that we havent seen 100x in the last 5-8 years and the talking sword isn't even necessarily creative

Nothing incredibly special but a very solid entry for the already overflowing genre that it is. Besides a good animation, it's still very early to say if it will be a success or a failure.

Another great episode! So we get to see more of what makes this world different from traditional OP power fantasies. Fate having to basically constantly go on killing sprees to keep his hunger at bay is interesting. I wonder what types of changes his personality will undergo as a result of that.

Surely constantly hunting and killing will cause even someone as kind as Fate to change.

Not to mention having to give all his skills to Greed. That creates more of a symbiotic relationship between the two. Guess the sword really is living up to its name. But if you get a super strong weapon out of it guess it’s worth it.

Some nice backstory with Roxy as well. Losing her father that way had to have been really difficult. It’s cool that she and fate who are both from radically different backgrounds can find common ground and relate.

In a world where everyone is so obsessed with skill levels and even kids have their worth determined by it, it’s good to see there are a few people who can judge people on who they are as people.

Solid world building episode, excited for next week!

Greed hard carrying the show for me atm.

Fate's gluttony powers are kinda interesting but it just really depends how much an ACTUAL problem him needing to go on killing sprees becomes. It'll be pretty disappointing if it just becomes not a big deal later on.

The "Greed" dynamic of the sword is interesting, and the fight with the goblins was cool.

Generally not a fan of the romance stuff since it feels pretty unrealistic or wish-fulfilment but it's not terrible either (the bits where the main character is really awkward and embarrassed in front of the Lady character are kind of 🙃 though).

Oh damn i was wrong that Fate could just gets more hungry and can be fine on food he legit has to keep killing and it creates a vicious cycle. That is an interesting drawback. Makes it so he really has to pace himself otherwise he would be left having to kill people all the time too if not outright commit mass genocides.

While a nice gesture it was kind of hilarious thinking about someone dropping ears off at the door of an orphanage.

Fay is really a good boy. I like the episode, Fay's sword (Greed) now more powerful. And also when Fay get hunger he becomes very wild, I think that's very cool. And that telepathy skill also interesting. Can't wait the next ep about.

the autor show that he know nothing about RPG.
a normal character have 1 point in each atribute, and in the second episode he has 40k and no diference is noted? Seems like he throw a buntch of numbers just to impress the public.
I'm not that dumb!
would be mutch more inteligent to just triple or so his numbers starting at a hundred.
I like overpowered protagonists, but in a belivable way.
And that sword who knows everything? wtf.... no explanation gonna be good enough for me. Even if that sword was in posession of the previous Gluttony, I hate that coincidence and small world excuse!

Sucks that Roxy's father passed away as I'm thinking that the Vlerick family may cause more trouble in the city. Plus if the Vlericks find out that Fate was behind the rescue of the orphan girl then I think there will be even more trouble for Roxy since she's employed Fate.

Btw, it's interesting how the sword Greed turned into a bow with heat-seeking type ability after the stat boost. I wonder what other forms it can take.

This episode was rly good, normally I don't really like these types of shows but its really drawing me in. I think the power/skill system is really interesting, and I can't wait for Fate and Roxy to defeat the corrupt Holy Knights. Also, I wonder if Greed may have any ulterior motives, but he's a sword so idrk what the plan would be..

The details we learned about Fate's gluttony skill (specifically the fact that if he doesn't consume enough souls, he will go on a rampage and attack people indiscriminately) make me curious to see what will happen next. I feel like the Vlerick's may arrest Fate for saving that girl/defeating the guy they hired, so I wonder what would happen if he was locked in a cell until he reached that point.

Well, Fate can grow infinitely if he dedicates himself to hunting monsters, literally nothing stops him besides the possible extinction of bugs to hunt. On the other hand, thank goodness that to satisfy his hunger it helps him to kill monsters and not just humans, this would have become a spin-off of Tokyo Ghoul quite quickly if the second option was the one they presented. See you next week to see how it goes with Roxy.
