Heh, Kizuna brings chemistry into this show that I wasn't expecting.

This episode kinda made her somewhat of a comic relief in the party. Seriously, she needs to think more before charging into a fight. I guess Nick and the party will just have to deal with her, even though she's such an airhead. Also got to see a little bit of Tiana's background and how she views this world.

WHY IS THIS GOING DOWN IN RATINGS BRUH

This is literally a good show with a functioning party and yet its going below the radar. This is why I can't stand most of these fuckers when they complain that shitty isekais are popular and then rate perfectly fine shows like this low. 


Seriously man, fuck this shit

Because it's boring and looks like ass. If it's any consolation, I expect it'll get a small boost when it finishes airing and will end up over 7.00

Sucks to see the MAL scores dropping for this. Definitely one of my faves this season. Idk what it is but just something about the group dynamic in this one and them all being outsiders, swept to the side and taken advantage of that really makes me root for them.

As for today’s ep specifically, glad Claudine won’t be taking advantage of any more downbad mfs. That’s really messed up lying about your mom being sick. I wanna see Curran group get their comeuppance too.

And wtf was up with that awkward laughing scene Lmaoo that was the weirdest scene ever.

Somehow I find this awful animation amusing. Similarly to Kemono Friends, it's almost like it's a charm of this show.

Well it started nice but after ep 2 it's going downhill very fast. Both direction and animation suck now, this ep was the worst, one of the worst I've seen in any anime. Plus Kizuna is annoying as heck.
It started at 8/10 to me but now it's a 5 and falling.

Kizuna brings the bonds to the Survivors, and gets down to business with Nick showing all of the meagre wealth they have, to earn some money for themselves.

Tiana's backstory this time, and the relationship she shared with her teacher-cum-master certainly is weird at best, most inappropriately by the silent laughter. But still, this was how one would've thought if such a world existed just for them. Claudine was definitely a nightmare for Nick via Kizuna's telepathy, which everyone uses generally for communications.

And sure enough, his worst nightmare has come true: through her crocodile tears to once again almost embezzle from an unknowing kid of nobility, Nick is able to stop Claudine, and even with her intentional fraud to run her group the Iron Tigers, he's due on giving back her karma. He's done with all the BS, and to settle this with a Maths Bare Knuckle battle, that's one weird battle.

I really wanted to like this show, but the various directing choices just left me unsatisfied, not to mention the wonky story that still shows potential.

I thought this was a bit better than the last episode but not by much. Kizuna is a bit annoying but at least he can fight, although he takes stamina and strength from Nick. Claudine is definitely a manipulative girl and I'm glad that Nick stopped her but now he willl have a mathematics bare knuckle fight with an Iron Tiger? What the heck, I'm imaging math questions with the loser being punched by bare knuckles.

Firstly that sensei laughing was kinda weird considering how long they dragged it out for.

It was also nice to see Nick getting revenge on Claudine and saving that other dude from getting played.

Also wtf is arithmetic bare knuckle, like are they gonna solve some maths whilst punching one another or what lol. Arithmetic Bare Knuckle

I thought this weeks was better then last weeks episode. We got some of Tiana's backstory which was actually creepy and a little drawn out.
I thought it was nice to show how each of them slept as if they were going to dive deeper into the character development. I mean they still might but with how this anime is going I think I might go on and read the LN.

Like even with Nick and Claudine scene I wanted a sense of relief when Nick helped that kid but it was just kinda over. I was like "Okay?"

I like Nick and Curran a lot but I need more out of all of them.

I thought the show had potential and it was honestly destroyed by the directing.

Easy answer: art and animation do matter in an anime.

The series has a good story with good characters with good design -- Curran is a cutie -- with a bad art and animation.

The group is definitely better with Kizuna, but still feels flat and boring. Honestly they should have allowed the characters to be more distrustful for longer as once you make them friendly there isn’t much there yet. 

I’m curious what the hell they meant for the cliffhanger cause it sounded silly.

First of, we got more Tiana backstory. Second, ok, i have to admit. She's looking pretty beautiful. Her sensei/teacher was... super wierd. 

Bond is like newborn chocobo with his unlimited enthusiasm. And he is pretty strong. I liked how they 'abuse' telepathy to little chit-chat.

After fight Curran, Nick and Bond went to restaurant were they found a mine. Nick's former party member. Tbh, i started sweating harder than ped... ok, nvm, let's cut off that parallel. But gladly Nick handled that encounter damn well. And second aswell. Kazuma and Naofumi would be proud. And speaking of being proud.. Curran, our beloved Vanguard was only one who stand up for Nick.  Of course Nick tried to solve problem himself, what almost he accomplish. But then Curran for second time arrived to save him <3 YEEEEY! GO GET THEM GIRL! ("Can you at least stick to just foods when it comes to eating?" Damn, i adored that line and shot on Curran cold face. she's so hot, brave and adorable. I wish she come to save me Q_Q) But she was't alone, she bring entire (one person) cavarely.

At the end we get teased with 'Arithmetic Bare Knuckle'.. With that name if could be everyting. For example... counting yearly expenses in 5 minutes, withtin ring, fulled with angry Rakshasas xd

I don't get the necessity to introduce Kizuna, it's less annoying than what i thought, but still, feels like he doesn't need to be here at all, and he being OP might be a total nerf for the aventures of this team, they may get pretty boring.

Nick saw his hack of an ex trying to scam so poor kid. Seriously how old is that kid he looks like 10 and she's probably in her 20's. Looks like were getting a duel next week. Wonder if they were saving the budget for next episode. The telepath segment was literally voice over still images. I mean its funny in a cheap sense, but are they really going to do that every episode.

Alright, so the last episode left a bad taste in my mouth, and sadly it looks like this episode does too

Just from the first bit part (before the OP), the animation still feels so off and strange. Like seriously what is up with Kizuna's movement and with that awkward silent pause? Apart from that, I think it's alright? I mean I've seen some people complain how we didn't see them waste all their money, even though we totally did? Like didn't they waste it all on their own hobbies?

After that we then get such a drawn out and awkward scene with Tiana and her former master. Is this meant to be seen as unsettling and weird? If so sure, that's fine I guess, but idk it just doesn't feel right how drawn out it is.

And then pretty much the rest of the episode felt like... nothing. Like they suddenly cut to a dungeon, take down an ogre with some more odd looking animation from Kizuna, and then they're back in town to spend some more money, when Nick finds Claudia or whatever her name was. As it turns out she's been scamming more people except this time Nick stops her. The next day (yes, the next day apparently. That cut felt really strange), Leon comes back from the first episode and starts to threaten Nick only to thank him saying that they no longer need her anymore, and how he assumes Nick is also going to abandon his party to which he immediately folds him.

I am getting so many mixed feelings about this anime now. I was so sure this was going to be great. I was so excited for it but it just feels so off now. The awkward animation and cuts are what mainly kill it for me. This was the first anime I saw for the year and for this season, and these last episodes have been such a disappointment. I'm legit asking myself if I even enjoyed this episode, like at all. Because I think apart from that scene with Claudia, I did not enjoy this. And even then that scene still felt off because of the animation quality. I honestly may end up dropping this one if it doesn't get better :'(

I was honestly really looking forward to this one. It started out great imo but man both this episode and the last have just been downhill. The last episode felt better than this one honestly, but the animation in this episode just feels so awkward and off. The cuts feel so weird too. It seriously depresses me how this anime is going downhill because I really did enjoy the first few episodes :(

that guy who tried to frame Curran for scratching his pendant is back lol
Kizuna is having fun pointing out everything he sees in a poetic version
Kizuna also never gets tired of compliments, they are free anyway

finally time to implement the ... "4 way security?", since all they have left is a few coins lol and with that, time to work

her teacher gave her the igniter as afarewll gift, a teacher she admired, but partly due to her fault, he also lost his chance of being a sage, but he still didn't seem to mind much, because when people don't need him any longer, it means he is finally free
this scene was kinda dumb, but i couldn't stop laughing when the teacher was laughing and Tiana told him just that lol
he stopped for a moment to tell her his last advice "you are what you are, what you learned can't be taken away from you" ... is a cool line... but then he went back to laughing, and i did too LOL

Curran sleeping in the floor looking like that, and with her hands on her horns, interesting,
the rats hiding was funny too
when she got up, she was stretching like a cat, cute
her sleepy face when she was brushing her teeth, oh my, i can't :D

wtf was that dream lol it was partly Kizuna's fault, using telepathy while sleeping

next, an adventure, using telepathy is useful, but Kizuna doesn't care, he is not scared of the monster anyway
by borrowing the rest of the team's magic, he can use kage bushin no jutsu lol and with that, easy win

12:50 - Curran's face when she was confused, oh my lord HAHAHA

time for lunch, or to check on the ladies lol
Kizuna following Nick, and went with the always lovely "urusai urusai urusai", and that echoed in Nick's head, what a powerful attack

time to eat, and they go to the same palce where Claudine was in the dream earlier in the episode... and funny enough... she was there doing the same thing with another kid LOL Nick's face, he couldn't believe his eyes
her face when she was trying to fake cry to get money, but she kept glancing at the boy, dude wtf LOL

oh, wasn't expecting Nick to join, and ofc Claudine was really stressed lmao zama mirou

Claudine is back to pour a drink in Nick's head lols i like how Curran picked her sword but was just standing there, meanwhile the lion was trying to intimidate Nick, but he calmly made both the tiger and Claudine mad LOL Claudine should know that going near Nick could make him expose her more, so i can't understand why she would come again... well she's a baka anyway

Nick and tiger went outside, ready to fight... but it didn't happen
instead the tiger wants to kick Claudine out of the party lol
tho when he asked Nick about tricking his party in the future, he surely can't get away without taking a little beating
so drinks taste better when you are the one working for them? can't say i know, since food has no taste for me lol
the tiger was actually thinking about what Nick said, but there's a magician there to save him
since this happened, i'm expecting the other 4 to come and beat the mage lols
aaaaand, there they are, doing a surprise attack right after the magician said "your fault for eating a surprise attack" LOL zama mirou again

the old lady is here to stop the fight, but she won't stop them if they follow the rules ... next time, a something something knuckle ... let's see what that's all about lol


watching the ed song, the team singing with the idol girl is nice, and ofc, the best part, Curran pretending she ate the butterfly, but then it went past her lol

Finally got around to watching this. The previous episode made me question whether I wanted to, but I decided to give it a chance. I'm glad I gave it that chance, because now I can drop this with no regrets. An interesting premise with poor execution, awful pacing, and mediocre animation. Maybe the source material is better, but I'm not watching the rest of this. There are plenty of better, or at least more entertaining, anime this season.

Kizuna's having lots of fun after finally being freed of the "Guild's Warehouse" for hundreds of years.

___ ___ ___

magic abacus... seriously? with all these modern tech they're showing us... they don't have a fricking CALCULATOR?

Then they showed more of Tiana's past in the form of dreams I guess, everyone was dreaming their past.



Meanwhile... Kizuna goes OP Protag mode and solo'd... and install... yup...

I am convinced that this current world they're in is indeed a degressed world where the previous one from hundreds of years ago reached modern/ future tech that is now mostly lost knowledge.

With only a few leftovers like buildings, clothes and lights.

(this gives me the impression that somehow the world got "reset" maybe by the Demon Lord going rampage and the modern/ future era world lost.)



And Kizuna decided to have everyone go eat at the place where we saw in Nick's dream... and apparently Claudine the skank was still there scamming people, and this time a Shouta...


And Nick went up against Claudine's party and is going to have a duel?... of Math? HUUUUHHHH? Surely they're not going to cheat with that "magic abacus" right? LOL (TBH, I would 100% lost in a math battle)

___ ___ ___

Also, why do I get the strange feeling at the series title "Will Save Humanity"... is literally going to be based on Kizuna some how Fusing everyone into one Godly being at the end?... LOL

The sword guy completely ruined the feeling in the show. And lowered the target age with about ten years. Now it's just about "look what an unexpected goofy comment I'm making!" to contrast with Nick's serious face.

By the way, why did Nick sit with his back to the door - which didn't even have a door leaf - when he had just angered the girl and knew she worked with accomplices? This is supposed to be a warrior? Even I usually don't sit with my back to the door in a coffee shop, and I'm not expecting people with sharp weapons to ambush me.

What the HELL is wrong with the ratings for this?

It's one of the best fantasy anime I've watched this year. Fun characters, interesting plot, nice art, decent animation.

I just don't understand the MAL fanboys, upvoting literal garbage (I'm talking to you KONOSUBA, Season 3) and downvoting this. Did a character say something that "offended" some of them?
