Finally, about time this season gives more time for Emi and Maou to catchup and develop their relationship further. Plus, they took Alas Ramus with them. Tbh, they kind of look like a married couple with that kid together LOL

But seriously, it's great to see them catch up without all the yelling and drama. They needed this breath of fresh air. Alas Ramus also seems very happy with the pair, eating happily and smiling.

The topic of allowing Alas Ramus a bed, it's a critical question.

Enough with the Ente Isla stuff for an episode, both Maou and Emilia focus on Alas Ramus on getting a bed for her on their off day, though still fixated on the distance between supposed mother and child. With the 3 of them together, they look like a complete family together of a married couple and the adopted kid. Emilia just looks so dead by hearing "family" each and every time, and Bel passes her beloved udon back to Ashiya.

Family shopping is a new experience for Emilia, though they came far from the first time they met each other. And since eating in a restaurant is that expensive, a cheap-out family picnic is more appropriate since they can have more interaction with each other, and Ashiya is desperate to save costs once again. Chiho meets them along the way, and Alas Ramus spoke words that shooketh her so bad, like falling out of love immediately lels. With Ashiya losing contact on Bel, she's weeping because of the crocodile curry that splashed on her favourite kimono, and it's not a big deal actually.

Welp, the futon shopping will have to be delayed, and Emilia...may need time to sort her feelings more than most.

That would be quite the sight seeing them take the items from the modern world back to their own world. Damm kid futons sure are pricey these days. Emi freezing every time they do something family like was amusing. But their little day trip really was cute. As was Chi's overreaction. Going back home i think would be a good thing for Emi as it would allow her to sort out her life direction. Overall a fun ep that featured some pretty sweet bonding moments between Alas Ramus and the family while also expanding upon the doubts that Emi is having.

i love seeing maou with alas ramus. he does such a good job taking on the role of a dad, it's so sweet. and with emi they really do look like a family. i just wish emi would let maou spend more time with her and alas ramus. i get they're not her actual parents and that emi can't really be away from alas ramus for long since she merged with the sword, but i just think it's annoying she doesn't let alas ramus spend time with her dad. also if she has such an issue with alas ramus staying at maou's house, why doesn't she just invite maou over to her place instead?

A simple trip to get a futon for Alas Ramus turned out to have a lot of heartfelt moments. Maou and Emi definitely gave off married couple with their kid vibes during this shopping trip. Maou wanting Alas Ramus to stay the night at his apartment is so sweet, of course he would want some daddy daughter sleepovers. They just need to grab her a little kid futon. Emi offering to help pay for the futon was nice of her. Going along with Maou and Alas Ramus to pick out hee futon. It was very funny seeing Emi stiffen up every time she thought of them three as a family. Maou is perfectly content being a dad instead of a demon king. Or rather its that he sees both those priorities as one in the same unlike Emi who can't decide between hero or mom. Their back and forth switching from serious talk about where to eat lunch and what their priorities are. Very good dialogue and it made them even more like a real married couple. Emi being upset at the end over Maou falling asleep on her during the train ride back was funny. I'm sure many people thought them to be married during that. Emi is still confused about what she wants to do and now maybe heading back to Enta Isla to clear her head.

Meh, they’re trying to push Emi and Maou as a ship but it’s clearly too late. Taken 30+ episodes. Chiho is clear I’m afraid.

But the episode was very cute. The picnic was a really fun outing. They both have really settled into life in Japan and are content with leaving the ente isla stuff behind. Alas Ramus has been one of the best parts of this series and a great catalyst for development of the main cast.

Through the majority of the episode, my initial impression was that Bel had experienced a change of heart and spent the entire day searching for various types of curry.

I understand Emi's perspective, yet it might be beneficial for her to remain calm. Not due to an overreaction on her part, but rather because she's now unable to end Maou's life. After all, Ramus has become her protector, making it improbable for Emi to envision a scenario where they would engage in combat.

Speaking of Ramus, her adorableness was on full display in this episode! Despite her limited vocabulary, her repeated utterances of "Ai!" were utterly endearing.

Additionally, it's worth noting that the quality of facial expressions seemed to have been elevated in this particular episode.

For someone as calm and composed as Bel, seeing herself curled up in a ball and refusing any doorbell rings due to her curry udon leaving an unfortunate splash stain on her favourite kimono was surprising, but also pretty funny at the same time. XD

This episode itself was very chill, though. Emi and Maou enjoyed themselves during the shopping trip with Alas Ramus in search of a suitable child's futon and also having a nice little picnic in a nearby park. It has left Emi rather conflicted on what to do next, so maybe her suggestion about having a break herself by going back to Ente Isla might do her some good.

I hope there's more fun episodes in this season which gives off the same relaxing vibes as this one did. =)

I think this may have been my favorite episode so far this season, Maou and Emi Yusa just had so many cute and hilarious moments while shopping with Alas Ramus, and it was pretty wholesome too when they had lunch on the bench and took care of her together.

And it seemed there was something going on with Suzuno behind the scenes, I knew it had to do with the curry she made but I thought maybe it was so good she couldn’t go back to regular curry, but no she just stained her favorite Kimono lol, I’d hate if my favorite band shirt got stained so I kinda get it. And now it looks like Emi Yusa might go back to Ente Isla for a bit, that oughta be interesting.

I'm getting kinda sick of them saying "Alas Ramus" every damn time they talk about, or to, the damn child, dumbass longass fkng name lol
I like Emi a lot, but everytime she and Maou talk they say the same shit over and over again. And I hate to see Chiho suffering because of that damn fake relationship they have just because of that damn child I swear that baby is the worst thing this plot has added so far, so fkng annoying and stupid.
Chiho >>>>>>>>>> Emi
Also Bel is great but she is so underused, I wanna see more of her uwu
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~

Ok so sadly not another sleepover with Emi and Maou but we got some cute moments I guess. I still feel liek Chi is more and more out of place. Even if you have a crush on someone why would you faint if they say they'll sleep together.... Also they at least come from the same World, which they plan to return to in the future so Chi honey there never was a chance for you... The most ineteresting part of teh story is yet to come! I just feel like the newer seasons weren't that well executed, so they are less funny and more boring.

More of the episode is focusing on regular lively stuff, with a little Ente Isla stuff going on.

I understand why Emi wouldn’t want Alas Ramas to stay over with Mao. I mean, the group can barely afford to take care of themselves. They’re so behind on rent that they’re doing favors for the landlord to take money off of it (like cleaning up the yard in the previous episode). I’m surprised that all Emi cares about is a futon for Alas to sleep on. But alas, the journey begins.

Mao and Emi are acting like a family and I guess it makes Emi more confused about herself than ever. Does she try to take Mao out for good or take her focus somewhere else? And all this drama surrounding Bell about her Udon was just because she spilled some curry?! DID IT TASTE GOOD OR DID IT SPILL ALL OF IT?! Damn, now I’m riddled with questions.

Looking forward to more!

Satan and Emi are on a family shopping trip and a picnic with Alas Ramus. Emi's outbreaks just make them look more like parents.

Suzuno needs a hug...

Emi's so hot. She and Maou look great together. Tsunderes for life. Loved the shopping and picnic date.

Liking the show very much so far. I guess it's not for everyone.

They look more like a couple than some actual couples do xD 

Also, I really do wonder if these people who constantly pass their unneeded compliment about how couple-like Emi and Maou look have really nothing better to do?

Well at least this was one of the better episodes, including season 2 part 1. The SoL/comedy episodes are at least watchable, they should just skip on the main plot completely.
