| Vetlol and Machina teaming up :o Felt like a buildup episode but I'm kinda disappointed at the fight in this one. Really one sided and hard to care about the characters. Might be worth keeping an eye on Kinohara. She seems like one of the more clever ones. |
 |
| If Chi was not airing this season, Maou 2099 would be my AOTS! (Old anime are currently excluded but that could change soon!) Most of all I love the characters and their dynamic. Veltol and Gram feel like old best friends that parted ways due to a misunderstanding. (basically what actually happened!) Takahashi and Veltol also feel like the type of friends that always fight with each other, but in reality are great friends. The plot is more nuanced than both a typical fantasy story and a typical cyberpunk story. The animation is above average and the fights feel epic. What's not to love about this series?! |
| We now have the team-up that pretty much all of have been predicting since Gram and Veltol met. Love Machima's fire demon combat form. |

| well if machina gets violated ill fking send it |

| We all knew the team-up was coming, but it feels a little to quick and easy to me. Good banter between the two, though, as they bickered about creating dungeons and beating dungeons. Video-gamey and fun chat. Overall, it's turning out to be a little more generic than it first looked. Hot demon girl, girl gets kidnapped, old enemies join forces (with a literal manly handshake), straight into the dungeon boss after skipping the trash mobs. It's still mostly working for me, but I no longer expect anything special from this show. |
| It’s crazy how this show actually is a top 3-4 one this season. Genuinely amazing watch and one of the best reverse isekai thus far Think I speak for everyone when I say fuck Marcus, disgusting treasonous bitch. Hate when bums like him ruin what should be dope moments. Finally getting to see Machina go all out and her true combat form, just for this dweeb to use his disrupt magic gimmick and ambush her. Coward I can’t lie I got chills when Veltol and Gram finally reached an agreement and set out together to save Machina. I think it’s cool this show has a character with such a flawed past like Veltol truly becoming good and accepting his past deeds but striving to be better. Nothing can bring Gram’s family back, but Veltol was also fighting to defend his own people. War isn’t black and white and Gram just couldn’t resist that earnest plea for help. Times change, heroes never do. Lmfao at Veltol being upset they couldn’t properly tackle the dungeon. They do get a proper dungeon reward in the form of a boss fight tho. Gonna be fun to see them take on Marcus’ assistant next episode. |

@perseii that plot progression to me, and it finally getting to more action when the first 3 episodes of this anime were mostly just building the world and introduction to characters, mc getting stronger, just slice of life type episodes
| @AurasNep To me, the world, the characters and the slice-of-life stuff were the things that made the show interesting. It was kind of unexpected and fun how the demon lord was going around town looking for jobs, building his streaming career and chatting up his old rival. Like it or not, it felt fresh to me. Sure, we have a plot now, but the plot is just... fine. So far. I'd like to see more of the earlier stuff instead, but I also understand most people want a "proper" story. |
| 4/5, him having power over all familia was completely expected since we saw him, but I'm still hoping for Veltol to get some custom familia. I would be shocked if the plan doesn't have something to do with him people put in literally everyones faces, whether it be the robot attack, another thing, or livestream this. Whether it's in good or bad light, he'll get boost, because right now, he's screwed since only had 1m subs and likely people are losing interest, or "faith". So it's assumed from early on, that Veltol might have always been a good guy. My guess is the hero's evil experiences were from Marcus, and Veltol isn't denying it because Marcus was under him and is taking responsibility. However that's my guess. Veltol is truly a Gamer. |
  |
| Machina with read hair looks very beautiful! It seems that Veltol is creating some feelings for her |
 |
| Machina looked like a badass in her demon form. No surprise Marcus had some kind of trick up his sleeve, he runs this place. I like how Veltol was able to get Gram to help him in the end. |

| ROFL @ the Hero and Maou arguing about mapping the dungeon. Maou: "think about the dungeons, the fun of exploring" Hero: "think about the adventurers, the tedious time wasting" . Wonder how they'll fight this dude with the cheat device... Since Maou is like what? 10-20% of his full power? And Hero haven't fought for a long time, which is evidenced by the rusting sword... But the Hero should still have all his power, since his power isn't like Maou that requires "Faith", it's from the Goddess. Tho that's also a question... where is the "Goddess"... is she dead after the world fusion? but if she is, should the Hero's blessing be broken? But since the Hero is still eternal young from her Blessing, that should mean the Goddess is still alive somewhere right? Hmm.... |

| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| Hmm, unless I'm mistaken both Veltol and the hero Gram don't have familias so Marcus shouldn't be able to manipulate them like he did with Machina but Veltol isn't at his full power and I'm assuming the hero is probably rusty so they may be the underdogs. But for now they only have to face Marcus' assistant so she can be a "practice" match to see how they do although I think that they will come out victorious. |
| I forgot that the series is so far at episode 5, which means that a lot more things would happen after the Machina rescue. |

| I can't believe the episode flew by. Some battles, but it's unfortunate their attacks and spells are not memorable. I know Machina is this anime's waifu, but Marcus' secretary is not bad. |

| Dark Lord and the Hero working together in their try to rescue Machina of the Marcus hands!!! kekeke |
| Machina was cool here this ep and kinda sexy Gram is too much a utilitarian to be truly a Hero since he is fine throwing people into a furnace not even considering the kind of person they are, all just for some city which we arent even explained what would happen without it. Just lose electronics or is there something more vital? Veltol comes off more an idealist that actually wants optimum outcomes. |

| Very manly and metal episode. :3 |
 |
| The most pressing discussions of our time. Are those on the topics that men must never waver in their faith. Those that of how to progress through the "level" of a video. While "playing" together and coordinating their start or run for a battle royale or extraction rogue-lite. I felt that. |

| @traed Veltol is a realist. With massive experience in leadership. And constantly gives actual real world genuine examples of it. From his interview session to how he handles everything else. Its exactly the problems we face in transitioning generals from staff to civilian work. At the end of their careers in the Army. So much so its provided as education to even us as children. To assist in that jump. From causing so much obvious harm to have anyone less than a nations leader on the streets with no prospects. While still having led like that. Vels case it works fine. He was that head of state. Doesn't miss a beat. Gram is much more so the lower level who gets crushed. By how everyone moves on without him. Never able to betray his loyalty and despise those who tried to harm him. Enough to work against them. But like passively accepting even without doing anything but waste. As tho that is expected of him. Absolutely the normal state for these types of guys in reality. So from that context they are very well written. |
| |
| Marcus went to the apartment, took Machina, and wanted to throw her in the furnace. He just loves causing shit xD But now, the Vetlol and Yuusha are teamed up to save Machina, giving him something to do besides being lazy. |
 |
| So Marcus is a Sugou wannabe.....lovely. |
 |
| Nothing like a hero and villain team up to defeat a greater evil. Gram might have his hang ups about the whole thing, but his heroic nature can't ignore someone in need. Marcus trying to turn Machina into power plant fuel is definitely worthy of this team up. I'd like to take note of the fact that he put Kinohara at unnecessary risk to toy with Machina. Maybe that'll be a potential "chink in his armor" to use his own phrasing against him. Also Takahashi calling her drone hacking program "Laughing Man" makes all the ghost in the shell binging I've been doing recently feel so much more validated. It's nice to catch references. |
 |
| Been waiting to see Machina in this form ever since I saw it in the op. Didn't think we'd get there so fast though. She was fire. Veltol and Gram working together, been waiting for this ever since the first episode. |
 |
| okay machina better kick some ass sometime soon because her character design (in demon form or whateva) is soooo nice. too nice for her to just lose like that. i can't help but wish that this show would show more of the futuristic city. i want to see more of the setting!! the neon colors!! the lights!!!! ugh maybee i'm too into the cyberpunk aesthetic rn. decent epidode. i'm loving the hero maou teamup....hehehhhee..... |

Reply to phantomfandom
As someone who ship Maou and Hero this episode is gold. Two things I don't know about Hero yet, the first one whether if he use Familia, I'm gonna assume he doesn't. Another question is if whether his strength also rely on his popularity like Maou, because if it is then he could also be a VTuber and does a collab with Maou, that's gonna gather a lot of followers for sure.
| @phantomfandom i thought the same thing about maou and hero... heh. really hoping that the hero doesnt have the familia |
