The zombie-cum-fog-infested village is trouble, and Cayna encounters yet another few Leadale players: the male-voice, female avatar Quolkeh and Tartarus (2nd account Exis, nickname: Xxxxxxxxxxxx) of Cayna's Cream Cheese Guild, and the stranded girl Luka. All 3 of them trapped in the village.

Of course, Tartarus would be surprised of how Cayna has played Leadale for long (at least 20k hours to be exact for a shut-in), and Quolkeh is just seeing things like he believed it the first time around. Cayna summoning the werecat butler Roxilius to take care of Luka while clearing what seems to be the stereotypical easy-clearing quest (if you're OP enough) of a ghost ship with skeletons and pirate boss Terror Skeleton to avenge for Heigl's loss.

After adopting Luka, it's time for Cayna to enter the Palace of the Dragon King deep underwater, which also acts as a Guardian Tower, Skill Master No. 6 Liothek's to be exact. The Guardian though...reeps similarly to the frog in KonoSuba, and as expected, it's an easy job of handling Master duties over to Cayna since her original master isn't around anymore. 3 down, 9 to go.

Sending both Quolkeh and Exis on their way, adopting Luka is another plus moment in Cayna's life. Lots of motherly duties for Cayna, and the girl in the ED credits is now known.

This was one of my favorite episodes so far.

Roxilius is a very interesting character.

Cyana and Luka are so cute together. ^^

Yep Cayna is trying to solve everything by burn down the whole world.
Also, 20,000+ hours = 5 years when playing 12 hours a day everyday.

Damn 5 minute episode.

So the people of the village turned into zombies after coming in contact with the fog, Cayna wasn't affected as she's a player and somehow a little girl was able to survive.

We meet the cross dresser(?) person and another dragoid both of whom we met in some previous episode, they are players as well.

They find the cause of the fog and defeat the skull captain and destroy the ship, that happened quite fast tho ngl.

Cayna took in the little girl, that's great and now she wants to live a calm life with her and Lytt in the village.

Before that Cayna goes looking for another guardian tower and we see the blue water dragon, it looked great to be honest. The frog guardian caught Cayna off-guard as well as me.

Pretty enjoyable episode overall. 5/5.

Quick friendly reminder that Cayna in her previous life (pre-reincarnation) is in severe paralysis state and was hospitalized for years, so VR game is literally all she can do while lying on the bed. So in context 20000 hours definitely aren't as bad as it first sounds

I wish more isekai were like this one, sure have the MC be OP but not necessarily the chosen one, it is a nice change of pace having more ex players / people alongside MC.

So finally, two more recurring characters get introduced, with Ruka and Roxilius. Roxilius is a great addition to the recurring cast imo, and Ruka is cute.

Watching previous episode I thought she said earlier that she can't swim. Now it's confirmed. Why wasn't that a problem in the well?

20k hours doesn't sound that crazy tbh. Even I managed to bank over 5k in a single MMO - and that's as a healthy person during my university days. Someone bedridden can get absurd online time in games.

Supposedly that's why she summoned the water spirits in the well, they were helping her to swim. Though I don't think that came across very well in the animation.

Well that was an anti-climactic fight, it almost might as well have happened off-screen for all the impact it had. And NOW she's a doting mother to this new kid? I guess the MC's personality has been inconsistent the whole show so far so I shouldn't be surprised but it feels like she's just doing whatever the script calls for. Maybe the author was so busy making her OP he forgot to give her personality traits.

The whole purpose of the fight was being anti-climatic though, the anime always throw this kind of unimportant challenges because they are part of the experience of a MMO, you grind a bunch of stuff, end up overleveled, and have to deal with quests that have a ton of build up where you one shot the enemy boss lmao

1. cayna surounded by hundred zombie villagers and got help by that gender bender female players.
2. sad scene where the little girl try to find her parent in her home then crying, also staying there one night with cayna.
3. the ghost ship fight should be take a little bit longger because the soo much villager become zombie and the boss literally spawn villager playing their souls like his toys agains cayna and her friend player there.
4. after the ghost ship defeated the soul of villager fly to heavens also GOT CUT.
5. the boss should be not one shot after xxxxxxxx attack the boss, the boss heal repeatly using villager souls

Continuing where we left off in the Silent Hill meets Resident Evil village, Cayna comes across two adventurers she met earlier in the series who we find out are players, being Exis and Quolkeh, the two of them having some interesting but funny cases, Exis being an alt account and Quolkeh being a guy playing a female character (something I often do lol), I like to see they touched on some gaming aspects like that. Then the three of them take on a Deadhead army on a pirate ship to get rid of the fog, which ends kinda quickly lol, was hoping for more of a fight, but the only survivor, Luka, was saved and is now traveling with Cayna as well as that cat butler, and now Cayna has two new player friends.

Yeeeeeah I figured it was another case where the fight was supposed to be cooler lol, a shame this didn’t get the best adaptation. While I have been enjoying it quite a bit, keeping stuff like this in would have made it better.

This is such a lovely and wonderful episode! 🥰
but to think there was such cut scenes that could've make the series better was remade into something else was kind of disappointing.

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.

at level 630, Tartar Sauce is the strongest player Cayna has encountered so far. It's also fortunate that he's not a bad person at all, seems like he's good friends with Cayna when they still played the game.

pirate skeleton don't stand a chance against OP players.

Cayna gained 1 loli. Just kidding.

looking forward to next week! :)

Really not expecting those genderbender player sounded like a guy. A very creative way to introduced the real identity of those player xd. Idk with the va, really a guy or not, tho. But anyway, its not them whose behind the villager zombie crisis. But a low level boss event along the side sea. Rip to that skeleton boss, too easy for the ex strong player on the previous leadale world under his second avatar to beat it into the dust. Still, its good to see Cayna having another loli under her protection. The maid loli back at Cayna's starting village must be happy having the same age friend like Luka. I am pretty sure it Will be a wholesome view....

Alright, another guardian tower has been activated, and then what's next, Cayna? Also, 10000 hour to get one nice catty butler, sounds like a good deal. But Cayna had two, nice xD.

Impressive alt account name of Exis, must be a pain having to log in by manually typing it though. More than 20.000 hours is quite a lot but knowing Cayna was stuck on lifesupport with nothing else to do makes it understandable and kind of sad.

Oh man, that must be awkward. Imagine getting isekai'd but your main char wasn't your irl gender. Poor dude.

20k hours, aka 2.3 YEARS LOGGED IN. Damn, shut-in is an absolute understatement. She literally lived in that game since she was bedridden it seems.

Wonder how her kids will react to their new adoptive sibling.

I can’t imagine being stuck as a woman for like 2 years lol. The dude trying his hardest to adapt by speaking more feminine was kind of silly.

The lizard dude lucked out since he got stuck as his alt. Just went from a mage to a warrior/tank type. Not so bad.

It’s nice that Cayna took in the kid after that whole ordeal, and she has a new playmate once she goes to the village. Poor kiddo lost her whole family and village because of that zombie fog. The crew taking on those pirates was kind of anticlimactic lol. I guess the difference in levels was too great because that was a 2 second fight haha.

I hope Cayna sees these players again. Always nice to see other players and hear how their story. I’m still kinda curious to learn how everyone got stuck in the game in the first place. What’s happened to their bodies irl? Is it a SAO sitch? I mean Cayna’s body is gone cuz she’s dead, but is everyone else in the same situation or what?

Mirality (above) said that apparently the fish spirits were helping her with that. I guess that would make sense. Though the show didn't really explain this well.

What with the amount of stuff redcobra said was cut, I am actually wondering whether the story plays out with a different feel in the light novels.

That said, I am definitely enjoying this show. I'm not really disappointed by the lack of a fully-described fight with the skeleton pirate captain, for example, because it doesn't seem like that's the focus of the show, and I wasn't hankering for it. The characters are just getting it over with, and the way I feel it is consistent with that.
