Really great episode, i'm really happy with what they've done with Darkness's character, they've fleshed a bit more of her character out besides from her masochist bits and really made her feel more respectable with how she handles her friends and honour (at times).

I was pretty sad how we didn't see the first Hydra fight, but fair enough the one we did see was actually really good. Kazuma when he focuses up, does a very good job at creating a plan on the spot and being a leader, and i'm sure he wanted to help eventually, it's just Darkness's sudden disappearance after her numerous attempts to stop the hydra forced him into action faster but now with Darkness's life on the line as she went first.

Also the bounty on Kazuma i feel like is 100% gonna be a big plot point in a later arc, ain't no way he's evading a 200,000,000 coin bounty, kinda funny as well that a Crimson Demon (maybe Soketto?) further outed his IP, and finally no way did Iris's also let that bounty through. Unless i misunderstood, she definitely seemed to know one of the thieves was Kazuma and she didn't mind but it's still kinda crazy how to let a bounty equivalent to a demon lord be set one him, unless she actually planned for it to give Kazuma the biggest scare of his life as revenge for the body swap incident and when he gets turned in just pardon him at the end.

The ending caught me by surprise, right as i was thinking about how close the team had become Darkness's actually just dips. Was a pretty heart-breaking farewell scene considering all they went through, but i'm sure it'll be an important plot line for later with the Dustiness fate.

For a moment I thought I forgot to watch the first fight against the hydra, but I guess they just skipped it. Was a good episode, but the ending was a bit too serious for KonoSuba standards.

This was the episode to start ruining the season. Kazuma made me absolutely hate him the rest of the season.
Just delete him in future seasons.

Honestly, not sure how they managed to get out of the situation with that hydra, but it was somehow still wholesome.
You could tell something had been eating at Darkness, so not entirely surprised by the ending.
Lets see how Kazuma manages to solve this!

Seriously what is up with Darkness? There's obviously more to that Hydra than just protecting the people

We're in for another trick like, she's going to get married (forced) to I don't know who because there's been manipulation in the family, or something like that?

-_-

Not to be vulgar. But how many people want that poor girl's ass?

I can't go any further. Voice acting in this is horrendous. So much screaming, all the fucking time, my ears hurt. Horrible.

I thought Hydra fight will be challenging. I read this part really detailed seems they remove some part. Not really interesting battle but oke. Darkness leaving party, i know will be another problem coming.

One last GRAND Rain Party with all the adventurers from the Axel Adventurers' Guild!

This episode was a blast! Even when Kazuma doesn't know exactly when Darkness is so eager to slay the hydra by itself, he calls for reinforcement and arguably makes the entire campaign to slay the hydra that much more epic! Especially given the pivotal role she herself plays in this mission and of course, Kazuma's selflessness to fling himself and drain touch the beast from a point-blank range!

Darkness and Kazume themselves got into some intimate-ish situation under the hydra together before being saved by having Dust eat the hydra lol.

All in all a wonderful great victory, there is not one individual there who isn't glad that they joined such a fantastic rain, the spoils of victory are even sweeter when shared with many. Unfortunately, this is also when Darkness departed on her own. I sense an arranged marriage of some kind, she needs to get dragged back to the mansion ASAP. She is not fit to play as the damsel in distress when she already has toned abs!

Darkness really, really, really, REALLY wanted that Hydra killed didn’t she? And because of all the shenanigans in the capital, Kazuma has got a bounty on his head thanks to him being the thief that the guild are talking about and I gotta say Aqua is very devoted to that egg of hers and that singing, oh my god that singing I mean I found it hilarious but suprisingly adorable at the same time. Despite all that Darkness had a lot of determination to the point she wanted to deal with the hydra all by herself.

Of course Kazuma and co couldn’t let that happen so they got the whole guild to help out and it actually paid off for them because they became victorious in the fight but unfortunately at the end, Darkness left the party as a result. I mean my god, man, that broke my heart there. It must be money troubles with her family. Why else would she go back to her home otherwise? One thing’s for sure, Kazuma and the others aren’t giving up on Darkness just yet. It’s certainly been a good way to develop Darkness more as a character I mean as much as I like her antics, she kind of needed a bit more in my opinion anyway. Great episode all around otherwise.
