| Ok Cecily isn't exactly the best character ever made but she's not even close to some really annoying characters. It's like people decided to hate her from the start and don't change no matter what. Everyone was complaining that Cecily wasn't kicking enough ass and now that she improved people still have a problem because she won. There is no pleasing you. And for those wondering on why they didn't let them have the swords. Well it's very simple. The empire won't like hearing the news that that the princess escaped but if they don't even give them the swords(that they probably want even more than her) then they will really be pissed of and probably attack the city. It was simply politics. By at least giving them the swords they will be more calm and the city will show that it really tried to realize there demands and that the princess escaping wasn't on purpose. |
ShanaFlame said: Zilpzalp said: Yeah, good point there.francismeunier, I think you forgot that the empire would destroy the city if they would let them escape with taking their swords. Luke doesnt seem like someone who would actually volunteer to help until unless forced by cecily... Not that i am saying lukes bad or something , its just that he likes to mind his own business..--this definetly makes him sound awesome!! francismeunier said: It would fantastic if Charlotte had Doris/Margot/Penelope with their demon swords...but now they are defenseless. It will be boring to see no action with those demon swords Fights with the demon sword is going to be shown hence dont worry .{evidence: shown in the opening} Evryone talked alot during this episode Cecily surely talks alot while shes fighting, maybe thats why she doesnt fight that well... God wheres luke?? his fights are something to look forward to but when are they going to show it , in season 2.., because they didnt reveal anything of the plot... |

| Man enough with the damn boob jokes, there is no need for them anymore. Pretty generic episode, says a lot about the series so far, although its still good. The animation during the fights was good, quite a high budget they have for this series I guess. 4 more episodes, I wonder how the plot will progress now that Charlotte is gone, besides we all know who it was at the front of the gates with the silver hair! |
| whaa..! Where did the questing party go?, on another note: we have discovered the source of the Demonsword party favors...Big Bad? ....why does he need Aria if he can give away 4? |

Everyone was complaining that Cecily wasn't kicking enough ass and now that she improved people still have a problem because she won. There is no pleasing you. THIS. I mean Cecily wasn't exactly my fav character either, and while she frustrated me A LOT in parts, I never hated her. And now that she's FINALLY kicked some ass, people are complaining about it? Seriously? xD meh I do agree there needs to be a lot more Luke than there has been, tho. But when I think about it, this is a huge improvement on last week's episode, which quite frankly, bored me to death .__. and lol at the "Cecily: I AM FUCKING STUPID!! O:<" ...even if i somewhat like her character that was hilarious xD |
| No matter how much ass Cecily kicks, I will still be annoyed by her preachy attitude. But at least she can admit that she's fucking stupid. |
 |
| A solid episode! For me, the best so far! |

MILF >>>>>>> **** 'nuff said. The bitch keeps jump in Luke's mouth and blabbering nonsenses about Human Rights and shit w/o giving any convincing arguments. If only Guts' sword can transform into a hairy muscle man and bitch slap her, I'd be happy like hell ;D |
 If he's not with us, he's AGAINST us!!! |
| Why did they call this show "The Sacred Blacksmith"? It's like calling "The Lord of the Rings" something like "The side adventures of Gandalf". Ok, it's a character in there, but the main story is about something else. |

Chimasternmay said: been saying that since... I didn't mean to steal any idea. :) Anyway, I'd actually prefer to watch at boobs for the remaining 4 episodes than seeing a Luke comeback: we had no develpoement of the character whatsoever. We just know that he wants "a sword who can kill god" to do "something". Wow, that's impressively interesting. I demand boobs! |
| Hum... Liked this episode so far... Yes, you can all complaint, that not disturb me from liking this episode. I like Cecilla too. :D |
 |
| Cecilia definitely improved her battle's skill. I'm glad for that. It's my impression or Luke looks less and less a main character? This chapter he gave an advice and received a punch. |
| Pretty good episode. My respect for Cecily went up a bit and I'm pretty glad the four annoying girls finally left. |

 "Only the dead have seen the end of war". ~Plato~ |
| wow when not taken by surprise, cecily is actually good |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
| An okay episode, and Cecily seems to have improved her fighting capabilities much better than before. Nice that the story of the Charlotte and the other are resolved (and a good resolution at that), and they even gave a huge clue as to who is behind all the misfortune (eager to see where this will lead). Curious to see when they are finally going to put Luke back into the story though, seeing as though he is also a main character and his past is yet to be revealed. |
 |
| It's good to see Cecily has levelled up her skills. |
 |
| Cecily is still too much of a softie.... |
 |
| looks like it ended well for those 4 =D |
     |
| The good part is that Cecily improves her skill a lot, and the bad part is that Luke is probably the supporting character because he hardly gets screen time. It was good episode so far. |
| The action, at times, really shines with this show. Too bad everything can't get me excited like the fights. DKJ |
 |
| So Charlotte E. Firobisher died, and at the same time, a new Charlotte was born, lol. Nothing made sense. As usual, I was laughing the entire time they were fighting. First of all, if Cecily let them get the demon swords, why didn't they fight her all together? Second, how did Cecily beat them? I'm assuming it's because of her morning exercise with Aria. You just gotta love the tactics Cecily used. "Oh my wind won't work so I'm going to use the back of the sword to produce wind so that it'll turn me into a rocket." oh my. Also loved how they were all like friends in the end. Yeah just give them apples and everything will be settled, lol. I wonder who Siegfried is. Good or a bad guy? |
| Cecily kicked ass in this episode and the two bad guys from the opening have appeared =o |
 |
yamakasi said: This episode and series really sucks. What the fuck was that at the end? "Oh, btw, some guy called Siegfried planned all this." WHAT? WHAT? I DON'T EVEN. This. Indeed. This show gets moar stupid with every ep. And what was that speech Cecily gave Charlotte? "You have a new family and your mother's dead so forget her". Or "What's wrong with living in shame to the rest of your life?" (or smthing like that). Wtf? She's a goddess of stupidity. Glad she finally admitted that. It saved the day! |
| I knew cicel would win, she totally kicked some ass |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Great episode! I'll say it again, FUNi really out did themselves with this series. This is the best dub I've seen in a while. Cherami Leigh is becoming my favorite female VA if not my fav all together. She was simply perfect this episode, her monologue was epic to say the least. I'll agree that some of the plot points are a little random and maybe even a little illogical. But, I think it fits the flow of the show. I mean, the chick is fighting with a dagger with balls...Ballic Dagger...really? So yeah, imo that pretty much throws a reason out the window. It's supposed to be ridiculous, yet believable. And I think they hit the nail on the head. And FUNi just made it that much better! Urahara Out!! |
 |
| Idk why but I have the sensation this series are going downhill . |
 |
| Seriously, is no one in this show using their brains? They start fighting, then get furious with each other every time they get a little cut... that's the freaking idea with fighting! And their reasoning makes no sense whatsoever, and Cecily's even less so, as she forgives them for every single thing they've done to her and Aria. I just don't get the logic of this show... francismeunier said: Olymunaai said: We almost got to the end without any boob references or jokes etc, then they went and ruined it *facepalm* I agree to that, it did ruin it for me too. Same goes for me. It might be the joke of the series, but it's a rather lame one, and it never fails to make me cringe at its lameness. |
 |
| Really enjoying the swordplay in this, Cecily is starting to think outside of the box using Aria's powers of wind. A nice and emotion packed episode, hoping to see what Siegfried is up to soon. |
 |
| A bit of melodramatic development, but well it wasn't a bad episode in general. Let's see what's next. |
 |
| "What's wrong about living a life in dishonor?" I...well...I like the end result, but the sentiment here probably didn't come across as the show intended. I ended up liking Charlotte and her crew, and I think they have an even more interesting story than the main characters. I mean, imagine a show about a girl and her three servants, whom are as close as family, living on the run from an empire that abandoned them. It would exactly be a slice of life, but a story about defending that life. But hey, that's just what I'd find interesting. As far as Sacred Blacksmith is concerned, I'm unsure of the show's intent, beyond underlying plot threads that are apparently building up to something, but thus far it's just serving as a taste for what's to come in its source material, rather than the anime itself. Nothing wrong with that, but the show itself, while not exactly noteworthy, does feel like it's finding its own flow. It would be a shame for that to be lost to a lack of time and episodes. |
| And this whole episode was just full of Cecile's naive "justice" babbling. This series could be so much better... Only Luke and the older adults, especially the vets from last war, have any common knowledge of how the world works. |
| this must have been said by someone earlier but still....why does a show based exquisitely upon sword/dagger has one with a pair of BALLS on it's hilt and to even worsen the situation it is named Ballock that's what I thought before google searching ....have to be convinced that it's real... now Cecily already proved earlier in her battle of 3 vs. 1 without any prior info about her opponent...why to even challenge her again that too facing her one on one..this fight was good only from Cecily's point of view. |
 |
| she gets always teased about her boobs, can they even do other jokes then boob jokes? 😂😂😂 Lorezhno said: Well at least that's the end of Charlotte. Not sure how Cecily managed to beat the other 3 so easily without inflicting serious wounds, but as we saw last episode they're all significantly weaker than the maid so who cares about their battle anyway. i guess shes better at fighting close quaters/inside rooms then out in the open + she learnd how to deal with their moves |
