| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The episode was really good. The discussion between Xin and Li Mu was epic. The action will be soon. See you next week. |

| Damn, Xin has been proposed to be General! This should be exciting! |
 |
| Boring episode. Too much Xin and his typical nonsense. Need another war asap. |
    |
| That declaration from Xin that he will defeat Li Mu was awesome. |
 |
| ^ Orange haired dude is a girl lol. This episode was an important reminder that Xin still has plenty of growing up to do, and he needs to do it quickly if he's gonna rise to the rank of General in five years. Not that I blame him for being pugnacious towards Li Mu considering how important a mentor Wang Qi was to him. But a lot of people will just see it as him reverting back to his old jackassery. Man, plenty to look forward to with all the stage setting and foreshadowing the last two episodes. Kurogashi said: Only three episodes in man, this was all needed for exposition and plot progression, don't worry the battles will be aplenty. I really hope we get to see Li Mu leading a unit alongside the FeiXin Unit, that would tally a nice headcount. Kinda doubt the alliance will go that far though, I'm sure Zhao simply won't be there to aid Wei when Qin invades. I'd love to see Wei send a large unit to Hangao Castle to seek aid from Zhao, just to be surprised and demolished by the Qin army.Boring episode. Too much Xin and his typical nonsense. Need another war asap. |

| Xin declaring war in astute fashion, fantastic, really loved the part when Kaine stood stunned when Qiang Lei passed her. Xin should become general in 5 years, does this mean another time skip or better yet season 3.... |

| Oh God, the quality of the art is already dropping fast. The characters looked like aliens at times :( Nce episode though, aside from the somewhat silly banquet.

Xin and the king don't even come close to how good as characters Guts and Griffith are. |

I almost found myself wishing for some of the first season's 'clean' CGI. The facial expressions and features, particularily noses, look over-exagerated. At least the story is awesome! |
| Sh!+! This is one hell of an intense banquet. XD *proceeds to watch episode* |
| Can someone please tell me if there is a time skip because of the 5 years until Zheng's crowning? I know it follows the manga exactly so if any manga readers are on this discussion can someone tell me without spoiling anything if it skips or not? |

Currently the translations for the manga are wayyyy behind the raws, anime is further then the translations. So I cannot tell you how many time skips there are, but from what some one told me there are a few time skips. However where the current raw chapters are(chapter 345) and Zheng is still not the King of Qin. dontbashme said: camna said: Can someone please tell me if there is a time skip because of the 5 years until Zheng's crowning?

| Damn it, am so eager to see Xin growing and becoming the power and right arm of the king that i just can't wait for the next episodes. Mubashwer said: Xin's declaration was great! I can't wait when Xin fights as a General under the king. He needs to get stronger and get more powerful allies. Kyou Kai is his biggest asset. I hope that orange-hair dude and the ninja-like guy in the OP joins Feixin unit. and who was that fat-lipped long-haired stalker?.. this anime is really awesome.. Xin and the king's relationship reminds me of Griffith and Guts in the golden age era of berserk... But I was a bit disappointed that Xin didn't insist on introducing Kyou Kai to the king. He should have trusted her... I doubt those other 2 that appear in a trio with Xin in the ED will be part of his unit. They seem like the ambitious type so they would want to be generals themselves. Xin has Qiang Lei as his right arm and awesome warrior. Those guys are probably gonna rise with Xin with their own achievements and become generals in the next few years like him and the three of them will probably forge a great general trio that will give power to Zheng. They seem like Zheng's future generals. razorwire said: StrawHat_ said: Oh God, the quality of the art is already dropping fast.

Yes the art seemed to going all over the place on their faces at times but when the battles begin and you won't have the silly CGi rag-doll movement you'll be grateful for the change. This episode was probably not even given much attention because it was just a building episode for future events. |

| Yeah in the manga i dont member Xin going that crazy. It wasnt that long they shouldnt had spent the whole episode on that. Liesianthes said: First time I saw Xin having interest in girls because of the banquet Overall, love this episode. Also notice that art the change in art and lastly, is it just me or are we seeing more Xin and Qiang Lei moments like hinting of a romance between them. Yeah you can tell they care about each other. While that annoying Daio is left behind and im glad. In the manga i didnt see that person in cloth maybe i dont remember. I think i know who the person in the cloth is though. |

| Jeez! What a tense buffet. It is really astonishing how even two people talking and eating is made awesome by this show and the in-world politics. Really nice to see, that its take more than a kid who smashes everything with strange power and luck to move the world. |
Liesianthes said: Questions that has been left are: The person who is in the dark cloth every once in a while as hinted in the episode The 5 year limit if Sei will be crown when he become 22 and if Xin will become a full general by that time. Things that have notice: First time I saw Xin having interest in girls because of the banquet - The person in the dark cloth is actually a subordinate / spy from Queen Dowager Zhao (Zheng's mother). Not sure if he is the future Zhao Gao though - By history, Xin would be general after 5 years - Nah.. it is because Xin isn't interested in lolis and prefer mature woman lol Too bad, Xin couldn't defeat Li Mu even after he became general |

| Waw! Current raw is up to 345? >___< The translated version is just at c142. minimal but brutal spoilers i see. XD My eyes got hurt a bit. XD |

| That was awesome, with Xin's bold words and then Zheng playing the part of the king without a say so perfectly. |
 |
| good building im sooooo excited now haha |
| Animation got bad. The faces especially, what the heck? Stop ruining the epic parts. OTL. Hopefully action scenes aren't like that. Ah well, this episode was pretty epic. So I guess that 5 years is the timeframe for the story. Spoilers. Everywhere. The temptation. Noooo. |
| Five years of preparation and good rants in this episode. |
 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. |
| Zheng laid down the gauntlet. 5 years is their time limit will they make it? Only time and history books will tell. |
| Take power from Lu Buwei in 5 years Zheng? i think you need to get rid of him before that as in assassinate him! |
 |
| fucking xin, you goddam bonehead. of course he'll be a full general, smh. |
| Man, Xin is so cool I'm glad he say that to that blonde guy I don't like him either or that alliance Though I agree with Xin, he should have died.. in battlefield.. by Xin 5 years that was short Maybe real time? Since long running authors tend to hiatus a lot *cough Berserk cough HxH cough* xD |
"Signature removed"   |
| Only 11 minutes in, why is Shin always so cringy? Why is the art looking so off now? Is the art going through puberty too? Especially the eyes. Ri Boku, don't entertain Shin.. It would've been a cool scene too without the cringe. |
| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| With every frame the characters get uglier and uglier. It's honestly distracting me from just enjoying the series. I understand they got older but LORD |
| That banquet was tense, yikes. |
 |
| Lmao Xin, just saying what he thinks |
 |
| found little so much happened here lol. shin is still hot headed. diao should say she's women alrady. and how lei going without her headband and people doesn't thinks she's women? |
| Shin's speech was heard throughout the whole banquet. Seems like his goal is to hit the rank of a general and Sei has to gain all the powers in Xin. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| ok now i see what they're doing. but man some of those facial expressions were a little over the top. "so i was cooking eggs" INTENSE FACE "and i burnt them" EVEN MORE INTENSE FACE "and as i was cleaning the eggs up i burnt the toast" INTENSE FACE INTO OBLIVION X100 |
 |
| Zheng said he erased his presence but Li Mu still noticed him didn't he? I actually think he's the one Li Mu was referring to when he said he met someone interesting and not Xin. But anyway, another packed episode. It's full of goodness and I love it. |
 |
| The negotiation was so intense that Ri-Boku started to sweat. The fear of death really gave him no other choice but to agree to Ryo-Fui's demand. Very nicely played out in this episode. |
