| As far as actual events go, it was quite down-to-earth. But still, I was intrigued. Every little movement so telling; every adorable mishap sparks growth! I'm happy that the anime is choosing t hold it's cards close to it's chest instead of spilling everything from the get-go as the manga does. All that out of the way, the use of 3D space was just so mesmerizing...? I don't know for sure but my guess is that the animators used blender for some of the shots. Lots of folks are now using blender for 2D animation to amazing effect. A big focus in Ousama has been scale, and this episode took advantage of that. Some of those angles must've been particularly difficult to work out... The careful, close-ups are my favorites. IDK if it's in blender specifically or something else. It was very experimental. A feast for the heart and a feast for the eyes ^_^ Storytelling through those carefully crafted gestures speak much louder than words. |

MiniFreeza said: Very interesting episode, and well animated as always !! -------------- Theory : What if the Demon we saw coming out of Bosse's body, was linked to Bojji to ensure that, as long as Bojji is alive, Bosse could be reincarnated ? (the Demon acting as a "save" for Bosse's soul) I thought it was weird that Bojji didn't recover his powers after Bosse died, so I'm now thinking that it's possible that the Demon is "sucking out" Bojji's powers 24/7 in order to maintain that reincarnation option for Bosse. About Despa.. The story he gave us of a man that was mocked, that learned from him and then about people gathering around him and building his Kingdom around them.. that sounded a lot like Bosse's story & the flashback we saw in episode 1 ?  Therefore, I believe Despa was his mentor, might be wrong on that, but it sounds too similar to be a coincidence. Finally, if my predictions are right and Bojji's life is needed to ensure the reincarnation of Bosse through the Demon, then Bosse needed another son to be reincarnated in since Miranjo said that the potion would have no use on someone that doesn't share Bosse's blood. When his wife died (if he didn't sacrificed her too), he must've used Queen Hilling for that purpose. Which is also why we never saw Daida with King Bosse, and why he was so tender about Bojji while holding his hand : He doesn't see Daida as his son, more as a way to ensure himself he could ressurect, while Bojji is even more important to him as if he dies, the Demon would vanish and he couldn't be reincarnated as well. -------------- I'm probably a bit wrong, but that's what theories are for, right ? Can't wait for next week ! Just watched eps 8. saw your theory last week. I'm not sure it's a genuine theory or you'd read the manga already. But, on the off chance you didnt read the manga and you did came out with this theory.. Kudos you clairvoyance! hahaha |

| I just noticed (well since the beginning) Hiling's name is spelled in the japanese way the same way as the word healing, and the what makes it even funnier is that she's a healer (as shown in the show) reminded me of tadano hitohito(literally translates to "just a person") from Komi-san can't communicate and that as well was because he is "just a person" cuz he has not special qualities over the regular. |
 |
| It appears that Daida is dead and (apparently) the demon that was in his dad took his place. If that's the case I wonder why his dad designated Bojji as his successor and not Daida like the mirror bitch wanted. Was King Bosse fighting the will of his demon? Since Bojji lacks physical strength most likely he will become strong in using magic. How else could he have cleaved that rock in half? I wonder what kind of weapon he chose.. A wand perhaps? Paying a crapload of coin to Death-Par and on top of that doing all the cleaning and chores of his house was a very good deal for him.. |

Avvenirista said: it's shown in the constellations in the ending at the end too. I'm not sure why but I really like this image of Kage's cooking. On another note: if you feel like ''spoiling'' yourself and see already what Bojji's weapon of choice will be then just check the comic covers of volume 4, 7, 9 and 11. |

me too. when i'd read it last week Im trying hard to discard what I'd read from my brain. lmao |
| @shuffle_017 @davidyodo24 It's better not to read his theory you can't trust anyone. It's not a original anime so I wouldn't be surprised if that guy is posting spoiler in every forum. |

I'll probably hold off for now reading. |
Potkaniak said: he was trying to carry a full bucket of water, which is heavier than you think irlOK we know he is cursed, mentioned by ugly faced Underworld Bro. But to the degree he can not carry bucket of water? His body would die on it's own if he is so weak he can't handle anything. Feels a bit too much. Yet at the same time he had no problem pushing door to his Father room so it's even more strange. I get it he can't generate enough force to really fight, but he should have enough to function like human. Even weak human can carry bucket of water. At least a bit :D But ye that's only nitpick, otherwise really great episode. That new guy was fun, you can expect some things about him but he still surprised. I wonder if our BoyKing got his 5leaf grimoire now :D (I guess he chose magic as his weapon, low STR, max INT) |
| OH SHITTT BOJJI TRAINING ARC AND ITS WORKING REAL GOOD !!! i lovee despa, fun guy daida at the end..? oof. wonder if he's possessed by that red demon thing that came out of the kings' mouth |
| This ep makes me see the similarities between Kage and Calcifer from Howl's Moving Castle. The way they both keep the house running (literally and figuratively) and even the way they both eat is so similar |
| desu desu binches |
| I'm curious to know which weapon Bojji chose and I look forward to seeing him use it. I hope that in the next episode it will be possible to see the results of Bojji's training. |
asdasdsadad |
| Little Bojji is getting stronger, thanks to Despa and we also got to know that he can't cook. But, he's still so precious. Kage is always by his side to cheer him on. That ending tho. |
 |
| The greatest hidden power Bojji has is a friend like Kage <3 |
| Hard training for Boji but seems like it's really working and that he's improving (?) that end though... Bosse is back into Daida's body??? WTF |
 |
| My man Bojji has a lot of hidden power in him, can't wait for the episode to see him fighting with real enemies. Also, don't tell me that King Bosse had this plan all along? To use his kids as reincarnations for himself? No wayyyyyy |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| I had always known that Despa is a nice guy from first glance. What a twist at the end though! |
| August 6th 2023: Biggest upset ever, deception, selfishness, or scammed, manipulated. Heavy damage costs, and more. Days since: 15 Last updated: 8/21/2023 One Piece Episode 1041 & 1042 & 1047 & 1048 & 95.75%/1049 & 1053 were a mistake and Uta brought the salvation -AhriTheS3xyFox |
| wait what?? sacrificed another son?? does that mean bojji father Consciousness got passed on to his lil bro body?? also damn i wonder what kind of training is this and what weapon is bojji using he looks so strong!! |

Kudos you clairvoyance! hahaha holy shit, i hope that guy wasn't post spoiler and label it as theory lol seem like legit theory. since, half of these were wrong, and another half were right based on my watch (22/23) hahahaha if it was indeed legit theory without reading manga. kudos to MiniFreeza said: , noice clairvoyance skill mate~ hahahaha  |
| And so we meet Despa, should be fun! |
| I'm Bruneian and I like anime. And Manchester United. And fat cats. |
| Despa's such a fun character. Bojji's training seems to be going very well, after all he did split that boulder in half! Kage being the best support for best prince! |
| They dragged this episode too much, the most interesting thing happened at the beginning and the end. |
| Did Bojji split that rock? Woa. |
 |
| Bojji split that rock!? Also, I wonder what his weapon is... It seems the King has reincarnated. And Daida is dead. Also, "sacrificed another son"?. Did he do something to Bojji too? Is that the reason Bojji is so weak? |
 |
| Man, I'm so happy Bojji has people besides him for support. |
| First I thought Bojji would get some ranged weapon like a slingshot or something, but maybe he's just using his bare hands? Also it seems like that red demon dude has been living in his "sons" and was sacrificing them to extend his life with the help of the mirror. |
| Absolutely crazy perspectives, this is true power of Goshozono. |
| Huge reveal with the king Also with despa growing as a character |
| Inhales oxygen |
| Bojji didn't actually split that boulder in half did he? Lol |
 |
| Btw nice cliffhanger there. But more importantly, Flippin Bojji spliting that rock?! Wowzer. |
