Edwald is so simple minded, serving as pretty much the muscle among the cast in the show. He and his daugther Jerietta seems to have a somewhat interesting relationship. Compared to him, Jerietta has her warrior mindset as well a heroic-like personality.

If you ask me, Edwald is still a badass, but just way too simple minded.

So Edvard's abilities as a General is only as best as the weakest link: his own moronic mindset of being a sacrifice for the weak demons in his rank. And his daughter Julietta sharing her concerns to Leo, it's honestly quite worrying for such a strength-heavy buffoon like Edvard to not utilize his strength for the better when he's a stoic, stubborn giant.

To make matters worse, Edvard temprarily called it quits when even retraining his soldiers didn't work, to the worry of Queen Echidna whom summoned Leo for help, whom finds an machine golem to reignite his tact...which it may've been too powerful for lackeys to even make a dent on it. It's classic strategy time for Leo and Julietta to intercept that, and it worked...to call on its brethren hiding in the caves, which Echidna and the other generals lend a help of aid.

At the end of the day, it all hinges on Edvard "teach-and-forget" style that needs some criticism from Leo's insult, and Julietta's words also add to the mix to reopen the mindset of the Dragon General into being a good demon general.

Learn from past mistakes and be a better person.

Finally it's DILF Edvard episode, and it has a proper lesson to learn from it. Edvard is basically feature all stereotype of bara character traits, but the end result is very very cute character.

I like how Echidna releases stress by going overkill on the golems! The fact that Edvard struggled with just one while Echidna took on three of them without breaking a sweat really shows that she isn't the Demon Queen for nothing. I'm surprised the whole mine didn't collapse.

I know leo was trying to help edvard grow but damn felt bad for the verbal lashing he was giving him at the end there. Good on Julietta for standing up for her dad. Echidna taking on 3 of the golems easily really just shows the power gap between her and everyone else.

Edvard is quite the idiot, but even he realized what it takes to be a good leader. Better than some store managers I know..

What happened post-credits? Is Leo leaving(?), or was this the past?

I guess that's life lessons for all the generals delivered so we can move on now to look a bit deeper into Leo background.

This has been a nice enough show but it does need to liven up a bit I think.

I think that was their plan to have her defend her father so he understood what needed to be done to fix his issue and Leo lashing out at him was f9r him to see it.

That was another pretty chill, but more thought out episode than the other ones. I liked the approach they took to teach Edwald a lesson on how to be a good leader. Which btw now I'm wondering what that ending was all about. It's pretty interesting tbh.

Now that we've finally gone through every member and their arcs helping them fix their problems and insecurities, I guess is now time we move into another, possibly mainline, topic. Hopefully we can see our main two protagonist interact more as it is the only thing that it's currently lacking right now. But at the same time, all of the previous episodes were kinda necessary to give more personality to the whole cast so they wouldn't just be one dimensional supporting characters.

God damn I saw a lot of my younger self in Edvard in this episode. I used to have the same mindset in Work when I would train new employees and what was so natural to me I thought it was easy. So my mindset used to be "What the hell you can't do this? this is easy!!!" Man this episode was real lol.

I like the development and how each side character will grow after their interaction with Leo but after seeing Echidna fuck shit up I want more of her fighting.

Late realizing it, but goddamn Julietta is actually so cute. A true god bless to this show with their adorable character design such as Shutina, Lily, Echidna, and then her.

Though as expected its needs more than just an extra effort for Knight Onix to solve those general problem. Even need such a good acting too together with those beauty. So, that's how you teach the old man general how to teach your poor underlings. A basic teaching be laid on him and don't forget about a basic insult too xd. Poor those bunch of machine dolls, thou, should've been not waste in vain. But oh well like Mernes said, Queen Echidna need something to blow off her steam for awhile.

I wonder who's that in the end. Leo sister? Masaka...

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.

I find it pretty hard to buy into the premise of human civilization collapsing with this level of technology being around. With technology 100 years more advanced than what we have and the heroes they couldn't defeat a beefed up medieval force with a limited amount of super-capable individuals who are dwarfed by the 12 heroes (from what we've seen)? Also, the demons were powerful enough to destroy human civilization but to weak to stop an organized, medieval version if it from reemerging (or at least destroy it)? Its definitely interesting as a concept, and makes our main character much more interesting, but I still can't buy this set up.

Every genereal had his own problem, but what's wrong with Edwald is, he wanted every one of his subordinates to be as strong as him, but that was too impossible, compared to his subordinates, Edwald had been training for a long time.

”Not trying hard enough, that’s an obnoxious phrase. And most of the time it’s being said by the skilled or powerful. A powerful fighter might’ve been born with a more muscular frame. An intelligent planner might’ve been put through a good school from an early age. They discount all the external factors that played a part in their success.”

Complete B.S. speech to give an excuse to the otakus watching. So they aren’t weak and unemployed because they eat potato chips in front of the computer all day. It’s that others have a MUSCULAR FRAME or WENT TO A BETTER SCHOOL.

What an insult to people who work hard to get where they are. ”You say others aren’t trying hard enough!” Sure, when do they say that? It’s just a way to attack them by claiming they say something bad. Rule number one today, paint yourself as the victim when you attack others.

”Muscular frame” only applies to top athletes, and they still work intensely every single day. (And again, when have you ever heard them say ”others aren’t trying hard enough”?) Everyone else is more or less on the same level, and it’s up to you to go to the gym and lift weights once in a while, or be weak. Don’t blame those who actually got sweaty while you did not.

”A better school” So how do people who went to the same school get such vastly different grades and jobs? In my classes when I grew up there were always lazy kids who refused to do their homework. Later in life there are people who refused to work hard at work. Maybe they can just wave that away by saying ”others do better because they went to better schools and they say I’m not trying hard enough, that makes me a victim!”


On top of that there's an incompetent text writer who has the main character say "Oh, Edward, my sweet, summer child!" That's a phrase used to mock people on Twitter. I'm a translator, and if you inserted your own nonsense like that at my workplace, you'd be fired. So now we can't even trust this translator doing the earlier "it's the strong people's fault!" speech correctly, we don't know what he really said. There are many ways to distort speech by changing nuances and removing or changing a word here and there.

Hmm... those Golems... Machine Age eh?...

I think Machine Age is pretty much "our modern age" with more advanced tech to combat the overwhelming demon invasion from 1000+ years ago in Leo's world.

Interesting how the Golems are still in working condition after that long.

At least Leo is helping on the side, otherwise Edvard and the others would long be dead.

Tho... this also yet again... supported the fact that the previous Human couldn't win against the Demons even with advanced tech and got wiped out and leaving just Leo.

Which also means the previous Demons are WAY more powerful than our current Demons... cause previous Demons were actually able to kill off a couple of "super humans" like Leo. (we've seen in Leo's flashback there was like 10+ Super Humans, but yet only Leo is left, at least that was what Leo told us in a previous episode)

___ ___ ___

BTW... Echidna went to help combat the Golems... but she also knows "Onyx" is already fighting one of them... how did she know? Leo never told her the plan to use the golems... is she spying on Onyx? (she only went out after the Trio told her Onyx has a plan, but they also didn't mention what that plan was)

But that means Echidna knows Onyx's identity cause Leo wasn't disguised and wasn't cloaked, since Leo revealed himself and both Edvard and Juliette can see him while he's flying in the air.

___ ___ ___

Tho while I stated above that Leo's the last super human, maybe not? we got a sneak peak of someone in a Hooded cloak looking at the Demon Castle.

And the next episode title is... literally "Tokyo 2060 AD"... (hey, that's like in 38 years, better get ready for that Demon Invasion)

Every episode, they add more and more of Leo's past (aka Previous Human world) stuff before they got wiped out and become lost knowledge.

what do you mean feels bad?
leo literally did/said to edvard (plus golem) what edvard said to his soldiers (plus quimera) ... exactly so he could feel what the soldiers felt

if using someones speech agains't them is a bad thing... then i also know the "don't do to others what you don't want someone else doing to you" life lesson lol

also i think that Julieta counter attack was planned by her and Leo before

Not trying to annoy anyone by quoting this but I probably will anyway ^_^

I think perhaps MAL would benefit from having a comments section where people can state their thoughts on an episode, but not actually have to discuss them. The main problem with only having a forum, is that the definition of Forum is a place for discussion, and the all episode threads have the word "discussion" in the title, rather than just "comments" or "statements" so it's understandable that people will assume posts are only made in a discussion forum, by someone who actually wants to discuss them

On the other hand I personally enjoy reading statements or comments even if they're not up for discussion, and there's nowhere else to post them. So maybe a non discussion option would also be useful..

I agree some factors add up to people who already "succeeded" in life or something big that they achieved, Melnes that was too far even made Lily cry wtf

How I missed seeing Lily and Shutina/Steina, you need a moe to tend things down a notch, okay now wheres the mech tag

So this was their plan impressive letting Edwald take his own medicine and letting her daughter explain to him, would like to see Echidna can express herself in this series she was having fun back there.
