I didn't like the first half of this episode. We already know Myne is an arse hole, and seeing her more and more was starting to get annoying.

Towards the end, this got good. Myne was betrayed and they used her own trick against her. That is the right way to teach someone a lesson. Plus, being defended by Naofumi adds to the humiliation.

Hope the two other heroes come back soon. I heard they don't really die.

I don't want Myne to die. She does not deserve such an easy end. She needs to suffer worse than all the other characters.

I mean this is a good point in the story now.
If naofumi is correct about ren and itsuki's body not found yet and the next episode entitled "The four cardinal Heroes", they could be very much alive.
And now they can unite to fight a common enemy for once and might set their differences apart like Fitoria wanted. -
Myne and Spear hero are like Team rocket of the show, appear out of nowhere and then sent away flying later xD

Malty : "A damned demi human thinks she can strike me not once, but twice?"

Whoever wrote these dialogues should retire from the anime industry.
I am not going to complain what went wrong in this episode. It would be too long. But I have never seen an anime that had so much promise in the beginning and fell from grace so hard..:(

After looking back.

I seriously think this series would been MUCH better if it focused on the 4 heroes and their struggle as whole instead of just Naofumi and his loli harem everyday adventure. If you look more carefully, all the 4 heroes are just a bunch of amateur kids who still have a long way to go before they grow into actual heroes, the series handle Naofumi early on and in a good way but, the other 3 heroes are just left in the dust and just annoying than anything

The priest action actually makes sense within the setting, they 4 heroes are a bunch of idiots so they try to get rid of them to get other heroes before the shit hit the fans and everything is doomed

my god the spear hero is as dumb as always... of course he would think Naofumi killed the other 2 smh and of course that red haired bitch would try to make things worst good thing her and spear hero ain't that good when it comes to fighting

but it was nice to see Naofumi and his group completely beat them like that not to mention the combo moves was a nice touch

but then of course somebody else causing more problems shows up with that kind of power thank god for Naofumi and his group for being able to stop it now we'll see how the spear hero and his group feels from here

also i feel for sure that the other heros are still alive i really doubt they would kill them off this quickly

anyway looking forward to the next ep

The real plot twist here was that something evil happened and Myne wasn't behind it lol.

Is this your doing Megumin?

But seriously; This was some serious power. To do this much damage in that world, only the likes of Naofumi can survive it. Unless Itsuki and Ren have something similar to Shield Hero's tanking ability then they are certainly dead.
Unless



I thought blood was about to come out of her neck but Raphtalia struck her somewhere else. A wise man who's now dead once said "You should have gone for the head."

I'm guessing Fitoria is coming to save them or Ren and Itsuki survived the blast to help save them too. Either one could happen or there's something I haven't anticipated yet. I'm hyped for the next episode.

Another baffling observation. Presumably the church has been around since the last dust-up - how comes Fitora knows so much but she doesn't warn them about the church? Even if she didn't know what they were up to in the present, it seems plausible that she would at least be aware of the possibly of running afoul of their doctrines. Especially when you consider that this church is literally supposed to worship the four heroes.

They are both ordinary guys from Japan. Why would Motoyasu so easily think that Naofumi is evil from the very beginning?

This was one of my main issues even in the first epsisode. It made no sense for the other heroes to be so against Naofumi right from the beginning.

Not enough characterization or setup to explain motivations.
isnt the opposite the same too? It makes no sence for them to defend naofumi, and the guards did came and claimed that they found myne lingerie in his room.

In my opinion i kinda like this about the spear and naofumi keep doing the same dance over and over. Thats one of the things that i dint like about shows like index anime where mc beats the bad guy then all the sudden the bad guy becomes a good guy.

It wouldn't have made sense for Motoyasu to just go about face in his attitude towards Naofumi. His dislike against Naofumi is merely a symptom of a greater issue: (1) He's still in LARPing mode and (2) Still convinced that the world runs exactly according to his game's mechanics (like with Ren and Itsuki).

This was literally the worst animated episode of the entire season. The lighting was awful, the fighting animations were stiff, and there were some frames that were reused while others were just blatantly left out. Not sure if the studio is running low on the budget or this episode was rushed but either way, the visuals were appalling.

As for the episode itself, it wasn't bad. I recall this part of the story very vividly from the sauce. We are now at a point where the lying and the manipulation throughout the story comes to a head with the massive power struggle that was apparently going on in the background. Kinda sad how ignorant the Spear Hero is but he's a fuckboy so what can you expect?
Don't believe the hype.

If the index was not enough to show us how the church is always evil and secretly conspires against the government with its evil nuns and crazy pope, Shield hero it comes with its cheap spin to show us how these idiots want to die, betray the heroes who should save them, no matter the reason, someone with a little brain would have done it from the beginning when they had their confidence and not now where they are stronger.

but isnt what the pope was trying to say? That this 3 heroes they love so much that started a religion out of them are actualy going around messing everything up while the shield the devil of they religion is going around helping people. So the pope is like yeah this arent the 3 heroes that we worthship, they are fakes and we must kill them so new ones can be summon.

I don't know, why don't you tell me? This show is obviously supposed to appeal to that narrative, so I guess you can interpret it how you want.

From a storytelling perspective, having the three heroe's monolithically condemn Naofumi without any prior characterization is too convenient. I would have to go over their dialogue in more detail to prove my point, and I can't be bothered. We're talking about something that happend 18 episodes ago.

fix something that they themselves caused, you do not stop saying that the 3 heroes are exactly like that because they consented to everything and became arrogant fools, while the fittest left it aside, fragmenting the group was a bad idea, the chicken queen a character away from this whole thing but if know, because everyone in that world is absolutely so inept? I already know that the MC will prove to be the superior hero and be the one who saves everyone.

Good episode, but with a very predictable turn. It feels like recently the plot has fallen into the Bleach loop, where it keeps on repeating the same stuff that you'd think would change the whole story in what people call “development”, but no. Hye everybody, let's hate on the devil's shield for no reason, and it keeps going from there, like if they were having a contest of hate.
I knew something very bad happened to the other two heroes, I hope they are not out of the picture yet. Maybe the spear hero will finally lend a listening ear to Naofumi after this. You'd think that the problem would be coming from the royal family, seems like the church is the big boy in the hood in charge of everything from the shadows.

Why can't Motoyasu use his brain for once and think, "If the Shield hero has a brain washing shield, how come he hasn't used it on everybody, let alone Myne?" Why does Raphtalia do almost nothing despite being Naofumi's "sword"? In the majority of these squabbles she just stands their as a cheerleader and does one attack. Not surprised about the church, it feels like the church is always evil in fantasy settings. I will say I did enjoy this episode a lot more than the episodes that have been coming out as of late. I just hope that Naofumi actually proves his innocence instead of, "well he helped us defeat the evil church so let's brush everything else under the rug".

The show has gotten insultingly poor. Most of us now are just watching for watching sake.

First, where did Myne suddenly get her 'impenetrable super lightning barrier deus ex power up'?!?!?!, why didn't she use that when they all tried to capture the shield hero and the princess!!!?? 😂

It would be a lot better if they gave an ACTUAL reason for the spear hero to hate the shield hero aka hes an asshole regardless of the false rape claim, and any reason to hate him even more is fine with him even if he knows its wrong/untrue. GIVE US THAT, not forced stupidity for the sake of 18episodes so that we can get to this point where the pope as antagonist resolves it.... WTF.

Needless to say the animation and fight scenes were trash and only went to animate that god beam.

Man I just couldn't help but roll my eyes at another pointless spear hero fight, but hey, religion is the cancer of this world as well lmao. Even more so than Myne apparently. Still have no idea what the church gains from shitting on the shield hero. Still this means the bow and sword might really be dead.

Guessing either Queen ninjas, sword and bow, or ostrich queen will jump in to save em. At this point I'd say there's a 50% chance Spear man has enough brain cells to comprehend that Naofumi isn't the back guy after this.

With the difference that AoT has always been humans vs humans, which was made clear enough since S2 and S3 Part 1.

in my opinion it would be far more tedious if AOT continued to focus on titan, and would be far more alive if there were conflicts between humans, because that would make much more sense with the civilization that occurred at that time

Someone hit Motoyasu until he finally learns that they are using him, how can someone be such a douchebag?
Motoyasu's level of manipulation is absurd, he believes all the stupidities that Mal-bitch tells him, of course this puppet believed when she told him that Naofumi killed Itsuki and Ren, it is incredible how Mal-bitch plays with the brain of This arrogant and unpleasant bastard.
Firo's power up proved to be very useful, she gave Motoyasu a hard time
Melty turned out to be the best counter for the magic of Mal-bitch and the other two sluts.
Motoyasu and his sluts have a combined attack, hahaha what a sad joke, how a group in which their union is based on a false companionship achieved that?
Raphtalia stood out with that surprise attack to Mal-bitch and the new combined attack of her and Naofumi was a success, the same with the attack of Firo and Melty.
Naofumi endured the attack of the high priest as a champion thanks to the timely warning of Firo, although I still find a waste that he save Motoyasu and his sluts.
I laughed out loud when Motoyasu and Mal-bitch were betrayed by the high priest, hahahah duo of idiots, they felt the same thing that Naofumi felt.
I am disgusted by the hypocrisy of the church of the three heroes (it reminds me very much to the real religions)
I laughed a lot when the high priest treated Ren, Itsuki and Motoyasu as impostors, the pathetic face of Motoyasu was pure gold and this improved when the old man revealed that he was the one who killed them and blamed Naofumi.
The high priest gave his final verdict and he sentenced Naofumi and his group with the group of Motoyasu to be purified (die), that sword that he held only means that there will be more problems (I think that sword is the one that summoned that huge attack they received)

It's official, Motoyasu is undoubtedly the most pathetic character in history.
By the name of the next episode I can assume that for the first time (and perhaps the last) the four heroes will unite to defeat the real enemy.

Not only is the pope tired of Ren, Itsuki, Motoyasu, and Naofumi hurting the religion's credibility (in different ways), but he also wants to replace the monarchy. The king's toothlessness hurts the Church's public image, too. Every attempt the king made to screw Naofumi over grew progressively weaker:

(1) He framed Naofumi for a false rape crime. Successfully kept him weak for some amount of time.

(2) Tried to take Raphtalia away, but she was defiant. Ren and Itsuki called his daughter out for cheating as the pope saw it happen.

(3) He tried to force Naofumi to give information about his methodology after the 2nd wave. Naofumi told him to fuck off.

Wow and I thought this anime couldn't get dumber...
"Doubting everything that you take on... That is very important. Open your own eyes, clear out your ears, and look and listen to the world... And think using your own brain. After you've doubted everything, there is a possibility of something real to believe in. To believe in something, doubt everything."
