Episode 1

Hajime's group is traveling to the next Great Labyrinth with Princess Liliana and several of his classmates, but they end up taking a detour when they see some of Shea's friends fighting some soldiers. It turns out Shea's father has been captured, so it's off to the Hoelscher Empire to rescue him.

The group of rabbit beastmen have taken on titles, which kind of aggravates Hajime, even more so when they suggest he take a title himself. Guess even this guy has his limitations on how he wants to convey himself to others.

Episode 1

Where things left off, there are two more labyrinths left to conquer before facing off against Ehit to put an end to this war, and this time he has the teacher and all of his remaining classmates to help him out. But before that, the Haulia tribe comes under attack and while Hajime thinks they can handle themselves, seeing that the enemy can use magic that he decides to step in and help them anyway. There, Shea meets up with her fellow tribemates where they talk about titles and learns that her father and tribe leader Cam has been captured by the Hoelscher Empire, and it looks like he's under the influence of somebody's magic given that sinister smile there at the end.

This season is going to run for 16 episodes and from the look of things, there will be one more season after this to bring the series to the end. There are 13 volumes of the light novel with the first season covering 1-4 and the second covering 5-6. This episode is in volume 7, so it looks like the season covers volume 7-10 with there being one more season after this to cover the last three volumes.

Man, Demon Lord Retry, "Talker" and now this? Is this the season of the edgelord?

I appreciate the recap at the start of the episode. I wish more shows would do that at the beginning of a new season.

Well at least they went with a focus on the best character this season. Thank goodness for the recap it helped me remember everything except his classmate dying and becoming the white haired chick...hmm. So they translate "chunyibou" as edgelord (at least that's what I think I heard), ehh not quite the same thing. Pretty sure you can be chunyi without also being an edgelord.

Episode 2

Hajime puts his plan to rescue Cam into action, and doing so in Sentai style even if Shizuku is none too pleased about going through with this scheme. The other Haulias make it out unscathed, and Hajime hears is straight from Cam as to why the tribe was attacked as the Empire is after their weapons. Now that Hajime knows why the empire is attacking, it's payback time, and once again Hajime has a plan to make quick work of them.

Episode 2

Hajime and Yue break into the palace to rescue the captured Haulia Tribe members, while he has Kouki and his group don Power Ranger masks to create a diversion. Hajime has quite the bit of fun teasing his classmates when he gives them the masks. After rescuing the beastmen, Shea's father Cam tells Hajime that they plan on declaring war on the empire, and Hajime whips them all into a frenzy to eliminate any half-assed feelings in them.

Episode 3

Everyone has an audience with the Emperor, who seems convinced that Hajime was involved with the prison break. But Hajime keeps his cool throughout the meeting, and a celebration party is scheduled for the evening, which will also announce the official engagement between Liliana and the emperor's son Baius. However, Baius is a real scumbag, trying to force himself on Liliana, only to fall unconscious thanks to a tiny metal spider that Hajime made. Now Hajime's group is in formal attire, and the Haulia tribe is moving into position for some real chaos to unfold.

Oh well with a prince (and Emperor, probably not good for him to be making such an overt move for Shea) like that the Empire should get a pretty epic smackdown next ep. Will the princess be joining the harem?

True. Unfortunately that's not too difficult considering how bad the clothing designs are on these characters. The dragon lady is the only one who's normal clothing actually looks good.

Episode 3

Here comes the political marriage from hell as Lilliana is set to marry Baius, and the emperor's son is just a scumbag that no woman should have any business marrying. Baius attempts to rape Lilliana in her room, but Hajime comes to the rescue using a mechanical spider to put him to sleep. While Lilliana is hoping to forge an alliance, the relationship is too lopsided. Hajime is aware of this and has his plan of his own, so it will be interesting to see what comes of this.

Episode 4

The marriage banquet is on and Hajime carries out his scheme, while Lilliana goes through the motions of pretending to get married to Baius. The Haulia tribe has secretly been killing soldiers, and then when the time comes the lights go dark and the rabbits fire arrows at the emperor and his bodyguards. While Shea takes out the lead general, the emperor is struck with paralysis to make him a sitting duck, and Cam places the pendant on Gahard, then blows up various places where soldiers are stationed to get Gahard to submit and forever forbid the enslavement of beastmen. Despite his stance and Baius getting beheaded, Gahard gives into the demands. So with that, the Haulias have been freed thanks to Hajime's clever scheme to play the emperor for a fool.

Episode 4

The Haulia set things up like assassins, and Hajime listens to their every move while he dances with Yue and Lilliana. Then the lights go out and the attack on the emperor begins, while Shea dispatches reinforcements sent to help him, knocking their captain through a skylight. Baius is beheaded, and the emperor is forced to wear a necklace and swear with his very life to treat beastmen more amicably from now on. All in all, the Haulia put on quite the show to win the day.

Episode 5

With all the beastmen freed, it's off to the Sea of Trees to return them home, and Kaori restores all the damage the Empire did to the forest. Cam declines an offer to become a new member of Verbergen's council, and Shea brings Hajime to her mother's grave at the foot of a really tall tree. Next stop is the labyrinth within the Great Tree.

Wait, what is the deal with the after-credits scene, with Hajime in bed looking like he did before coming to this world!?

This show is so hilarious when it tries to be serious. Let me introduce you to my dead mother...I can only imagine her mother thinking "what the hell are you wearing?!"

For him to be so low key and yet have everything else about him (his clothes, ship, his women, etc.) so over the top. It is just so ridiculous. It just screams "overcompensating".

Episode 6

Onto the next labyrinth, and here Yue, Tio, and Ryutaro end up being teleported away while they are replaced with imposters. It turns out that they were transformed into goblins, and while it would have fooled most adventurers, Hajime saw through this trap. And then for the next test Hajime finds himself hallucinating in a dream world back at home where Yue and the others are living with him and going to school. But Hajime saw through this illusion seeing that a world that caters to his every desire doesn't exist. This is quite the tricky labyrinth there, but it's a good thing Hajime is a seasoned veteran who can see through all that smokescreen.

Hajime and Yue open the labyrinth in the Great Tree, but after teleporting in, Hajime realizes that Yue, Tio, and Ryutaro were separated from them and replaced with imposters. It turns out that those three were turned into goblins, but Hajime sees through the illusions easily. In the next part of the labyrinth, Hajime apparently finds himself back in his own world, going to school with Yue and Shea, but deep down he realizes that something is wrong. He soon finds out that this world is an illusion meant to cater to his ideals, and he rejects the illusion and wakes up. But when he comes to, he finds out that everyone else is in a similar fate.

Hilarious that they didn't even bother showing them finding the transformed martial arts guy. It shows just how insignificant of a character he is. Idk why him and the hero are even with them. They're just annoyances to him and the audience.

Have I said how horrible the ED music is yet? Because it's really awful.

Episode 7

The other members of Hajime's group soon awaken from their dream worlds, and after a while Shizuku does as well. But they can't wait any longer, so Kaori forcibly dispels Suzu's, Ryutaro's, and Kouki's illusions. Then everyone is ambushed by slimes, and although they manage to fend them off, all the splatter that gets over their bodies has the effects of an aphrodisiac. Finally, they encounter a massive swarm of cockroaches; who would have thought that Hajime had such a phobia? In fact, not just him, but everyone starts to panic as the swarm gathers together in the formation of a magic circle. Now there's a few giant roach warriors, and evidently Hajime and Yue have become severely antagonistic to each other. This labyrinth must really love to play tricks with the mind.
