Nice to hear the first OP again. Now that the pope is dead can we turn our attention to kicking Myne's ass?

Slowly getting more faith in the other heroes, working together they can accomplish so much more. The pope finally hit the dust, not quite in a way that I expected. That Blood Sacrifice took me by surprise. Naofumi got saved by his friends again from letting his anger consume him.

The Queen to the rescue!

Damn that Pope, he even sacrificed the lives of his believers. But oh well, Naofumi almost consumed by that rage skill good thing the girls were able to stop him. Although him and the heroes helped each other, I still don't trust them. Queen looks so strong

Everything about this episode was amazing, especially the part with Blood Sacrifice. I seriously hope that Naofumi won't ever use that again. I really doubt that he's going to die but that's just too much blood for one attack. I'm glad it worked though...

And finally the hot Queen appears... better late than never, I guess but now, I just want to know what the hell she was doing during these last 19 eps. I honestly hope the show can give me a satisfactory reason but based on how things has been so far regarding explanations... yeah, I don't really expect much.

That aside, the episode was... still mediocre but at least, a bit better than the horrendous previous one.

The fight as a whole was decent but it also had its absurd and nonsensical moments. The fact that the pontiff was just standing there while Naofumi was struggling with his inner demons to be later saved by his team members made the whole scene feel really awkward. Not to mention that seeing Melty acting as if she were part of the group since ages was cringey as hell.

Well, I guess this arc will fully conclude in the next episode. That said, let's see what else this show has to offer with just 5 eps. remaining.

P.S.: I know it wasn't the intention but seeing the Queen introducing herself while Naofumi was fucking dying in the floor from blood lost made me laugh real hard xD

Oh man this episode was by the book...

Hidden power like (Kyubi power- Naruto), (Hollow Mask - Bleach), (SSJ - DBZ), (Full Demon Form - Inuyasha), (Berserk Armor - Berserk) and the list goes on.

Overcoming some force because "feelings"? Then gaining a powerup because of that.

Monologuing by the bad guy instead of attacking.

Also why did they not simply destroy the ground under the pope/barrier and the large group?

Don't curses simply do nothing in the barrier?

Again the "Shield" has an offensive ability.

I wonder how much the Spirit Bombs cost them.

Oh ya... Berserk wants its Berserk Armor back.

Hm so our heros worked together to bring the pope down. I don't like the fact Naofumi had to say please and those 3 acted like they deserved this word....

How ever I liked some of the combination attacks. But even with that the pope didn't want to go down. We also got to see how he used Itsukis bow + an ilusion. The queen looked so good in that outfit. I didn't expect her to be so strong.

And again Naofumi used his wrath shield and again he almost lost complete control over himself. Without Raphtalia, Filo and Melty who knows what could had happened. His blood sacrifice looked scary. He lost so much blood. Even when he killed the pope with it, I don't think he should use that ever again. Fitoria was definitely right about it.

With the appearance of the queen I just hope some people get what they deserve. All this shit around Naofumi goes on for way to long.

The whole "hatred" schtick is really a joke at this point. Yeah sure, go reconcile with them (bc apparently you're "mature") even though it seems you still haven't gotten over what happened.

Honestly, out of the four of them, the katana guy is probably the best. He gets character development plus he's voiced by Matsuoka. Sadly, he of course has to get pushed to the sides to further fuel mc-kun's ego.

Hey guys, remember that thing you liked about this anime? Watch me defile it again, this time in even more detail! Don't worry. The pittance I'll give you for it won't even come close to making you feel better. But this is episode 20, and I know you'll watch the last 4 anyway. Have fun!

Naofumi needs to learn a new power that won't hurt him :/ Blood Sacrifice was cool and all, but he can't keep relying on the Rage Shield and dragon power v__v if he dies in this world, who knows if he'll get to return to his home world :/

ok that was pretty good, seeing the heroes all fight together for once was pretty interesting, Naofumi sticking in the guy with a heavily upgraded Rage shield and some help from his good old friend zombified dragon. I'm pretty sure some of the things the pope was doing, were not approved by the Vatican but oh well.

Queens pretty neat, she knows whats good and has her priority straight, unlike her corrupt psycho husband or eldest daughter, very thankful about that. Seems like she took the fight to them near the end, lmao she had enough waiting and said "fuck it, imma head out myself" thank god she did

4 heroes fighting together was ok, see Motoyasu can be a average guy, working together and keeping moral high suits his character more, not being a pedal stool for Malty to sit on. So he is capable of cooperating and working with the other 3, but that still won't clean his disgusting image he has.

Naofumi had some pretty stellar moments this ep as well, got that 1 up from zombie dragon bro and i'm guessing has a full set of rage armour now? His rage sequence felt ehhhhh at best, but i got the gist of it and i guess it was warrented with showing him he's stronger with the new armour and new rage shield look. Small question as well, does the rage shield and curse skills, does it's power scale by his level? Or does it scale by something completely different (most likely his rage) Since Naofumi is technically softlocked at lvl40, but after pulling it out he was on equal grounds with the other 3 heroes (even though they weren't efficiently using their skills) so just how strong is it really?

Pope was going sicko mode cannot lie, some hall of mirrors shit and full counter move, but Naofumi's 'Blood Sacrifice' was fucking hardcore on god, like didn't expect it, that is probably one of the coolest things to date i've seen him do, he might of lost about a few gallons of blood, but hay might as well look cool if so. Summoning a massive blood letting spring trap mechanism to crunch the pope till he's only blood, was definietly not on my list of different ways this could of ended, not saying i'm complaining, that 3 seconds of seeing him mangled was good, just wish the rest of this anime had this much gore.

Queen seems about to give Naofumi special treatment for putting up with her family's shit and the entire mess that followed, really hoping we see more of her, she seems chill.

Ngl, these was the best episode, and a decent one after having a complete shit several episode back on. I can't blame myself for not shitting Penkin's backsound. Its really good, and finally the Queen made a move after having such a long wait from a several episodes back on. Okay, then, i admit it. It was shit and good, a great combination to closed this power-fantasy story with a lot of heavy drama. I hope its stay adorable. Alas, its not even the end. So, lets see whats next .... 5 more.

Queen seems good and actually refershing in the series where someone has a brain for once, didn't like the fight at all and hated how the Rage Shield was used yet again as well as the Blood Sacrifice too to get a very corny and terribly written Pope here. At least there's some promise now for Naofumi now that the Queen is here, since she ain't like Malty and the King when it comes to how she perceived Naofumi, and actually relied on him, and willing to save him too.

It was really cool to see the 4 heroes fighting together really united! Hope we get more opportunity to see scenes like this.
This attack by Naofumi was very dangerous, however, it was very strong, leaving the enemy practically without reaction.
Luckily, the queen will probably be able to heal Naofumi without him having any permanent damage to his health.

A lot of potential here but this all came off as pretty bland and generic to me. Didn't care for any of this conflict. Didn't like how they teamed up (nothing special) and the antagonist was dumpster juice; he was just a generic cult leader who wanted power because...reasons...

I hope Melty is not a permanent member of the Shield Hero party...I still don't like her. It was better when it was just 3 of them.

Man that fight with OP1 playing was pure hype.

Queen = Mommy. THe beginning scene proved that. Give us more milfs, seriously tired of all the loli's.

Naofumi was almost consumed in the rage, glad that Raphtalia, Filo and Melty stopped him, they again suffered those curse burns. And Filo is too cute man.

That blood thingy attack was scary man, felt like it back fired or something. That dragon/worm out of metals was unexpected, the pope fucker met his end in the most guresome way possible ~ best way for him, he fully deserved it, still queen came in the end and saved the day.

No way Naofumi's dying man. Great episode. This episode just further established the fact that our Naofumi is the most OP hero right now and the other 3 have to accept that fact too.

Judging by how the queen said, "just hang on a little more shield hero and Melty" in the beginning, I think it's safe to assume she doesn't give a shit about Malty lmao.

Also seeing the title of next episode makes me happy.

5/5 episode.

My tears dropped when the first OP played, what a goosebumps was that. Not expected the final blow of Naofumi took that much of blood, it was the most gore thing ever happened in this anime imo. Satisfied of that pope got crushed into "human juice" as he deserved.

Indeed, anger is, at times, merely a defense mechanism.
“Why does an apple fall when it is ripe? Is it brought down by the force of gravity? Is it because its stalk withers? Because it is dried by the sun, because it grows too heavy, or because the boy standing under the tree wants to eat it? None of these is the cause.... Every action of theirs, that seems to them an act of their own free will is in the historical sense not free at all but is bound up with the whole course of history and preordained from all eternity.”

That was one rather intense fight, with quite the ending with Naofumi using blood sacrifice like that, definitely wasn't expecting him to use curse magic like that especially after him meeting Fitoria not too long ago and what she said about it.

Oh and Naofumi finally meets the queen, we haven't really seen much of her up until now, mainly just her shadows.

The animation in this episode was very good, other than the cgi used for the blood sacrifice monster.

Naofumi's practically a summoner at this point. Iron Maiden is one thing, but Blood Sacrifice creates some sort of underworld chain serpent that dishes out gory deaths, as the pope experienced. Summoning it incapacitated him, so I suppose it isn't going to be a first option often.

Fantastic episode with the fighting and especially the blood sacrifice was deadly enough that it almost killed Naofumi, but the church's pope guy definitely got what's coming for him.
In the next episode ig it's time for Naofumi's name to be cleared up from all the framing and etc by the Queen Mirelia.
