No, Rimuru-sama get slaughtered and became the noodles! F for that.
In fact that they just cliffhanged me previously to watch slime edible to be easten as a soup noodles. I can't help but feels hunger after then.

Once again, that old prime minister proved to be an interesting character, resigning himself and let the young soul took the position. After that, they took a coalition to made Souma dating the princess, at last. Well done job and reasoning, you both!

As the result, ofc the girls will talk about the marriage ideas. Eight every week? I think Souma can handle more than that! I can't help chuckling when Juna and Aisha chit-chat about that imagination in front of Souma. Girls really like to flirt there, eh? Then, boom, that's the harem for you, Kazuya. Take it easy, cos the girls granted everything by their own will!

You do realize that said characters live in a world where polygamy is considered normal (at least for the upper class), right?

Liscia's main goal is to keep Souma on throne. Souma keeps saying he's going to hand the throne back to Liscia in a few years and peace out at this point. Part of the reason she's interested in keeping him on the thronewas cut from the anime during the date. There's more improvements going on in kingdom than what's been shown in the anime.


Something being considered "normal" does not mean that jealousy immediately ceases to exist. Although I suppose since she fell in love with him so easily I shouldn't be expecting her to behave like a human being whose emotions make sense.

And if there really just IS no jealousy, this is just another example of how the characters in this series don't feel real, more like convenient constructs. Just because there's a textual reason for it doesn't change that fact.


Thats why I liked harem in "Hachi-nan tte, Sore wa Nai deshou!". It was bad adaptation but there was always logical reason why each woman would want to marry MC and not by just being in love.

This became a happy-go-lucky plot. Its kinda boring that they are so peaceful. Maybe there are some bang crackers in the future episodes. Aisha just reminds me of Touka from Date a Live.

Liscia isn't in love with Souma yet.
Nor is Souma in love with anyone yet.
Souma won't be the one deciding who he marries.


And Souma isn't the only one who will end up with a harem.

As "logical" as the above might be in theory, nothing in the series has suggested it at all. So no, it's not a valid theory if there's nothing to base it on, everything we have seen has implied nothing other than she's suddenly fallen for this guy she barely knows.


Can you point out those"everything we have seen has implied" moments? Where and what episode does it show Liscia has fallen for Kazuya? That being said, I base my logic on simply the mindset of being pressured into a political marriage.

Beginning of episode 3, Lischia directly stated that the country needs Souma and that if she becomes his fiance, it would anchor him in this world. That is reasoning enough for her to appeal to Souma's good side because from her perspective, the needs of her country comes first.

If anything, from the first five episodes, I have not seen definitive proof that Liscia has fallen for Souma. Even on their date, they never even held hands or kissed. They seem more like they are in a CEO/Vice President type relationship where they are running a country.


How about the amount of luminescent blushes she has around him?

I didn't expect Aisha to become this kind of character. I don't mind tho, it's much better than "gallant warrior".

So harem ending possible, eh? Good, good.

I'm just here to say that I'm going to drop this anime.
Because I actually dropped it in a dating episode, which is prob a first to me. (and I thought I've seen horrible dating episodes, in the past).

We have specific anime discussing multiple romantic relationships at once this season, in Kanojo mo Kanojo. While I have my issue regarding the protag there, I respect how they see the issue of polygamy, and how they depict it.
This one is just plain horrible.
First thing first: It makes light of Liscia's issue of not actually loving the MC. All this time, she's just entertaining the idea of marriage bcs she's a princess and this one is a hero, and the country has a lack of an outstanding male figure among the nobility. Hell, the writer actually tries hard to try to show us that Liscia pity the hero's og premise (about not having anyone else in his own world), it looks more like Liscia is trying hard to pity the hero's situation and fall in love with him. Her condition rn to me looks more like she's accepting her fate and trying to enjoy it, rather than wanting to be with the hero.
The MC, too, doesn't actually love Liscia. He's just attracted to her physically, bcs she's cute as f.
This issue prob will "get solved" in a simplifying manner later down the line (like how they're simplifying the relationship of these two, rn) so unless they're a nitpick like me, most people would still be able to understand and accept it.
But I know I won't. That's why I drop it.

And oh yeah Hakuu powerplay,
Also: The middle-class economy imagination of the complicated relation between macro and micro economy is fun if you keep in mind that that's not how it's supposed to work, so you can just have a laugh together with the writer as he trolled the f out of unknowing readers while he does world-building.




Or well, could be anime just suck and paced too fast, that that's the impression I got about the story. I actually suspect that there's quite a lot of indirect 4th-wall between the writer and readers who understand. There's prob a reason why the LN of this thing is popular, after all. Anime just failed to depict it.

you are right, most of the slice of life in this series are happy-go-lucky plots and yeah there is indeed an actual plot later though idk how it will be in the anime. Said plots included scheming, political fights, and military warfare; Mc's role (along with Hakuya) is a tactician similiar to lelouch's role in code geass anime. As far as I remember.

I am actually surprised that it took 5 eps just to reach chapter 4 of volume 1 of the light novel even though there are some cutted scenes here and there. I'm just hoping they won't rush the later episodes that much, since everything concluded at around vol 3 or 4 for the first big arc

Now this is a harem I can get with. They are all so cute & likeable♡ I love how no one is too annoyingly over the top/unbearable.

Omg they looked so great in the school uniforms. Liscia & Souma are so cute tgt!!!!! And Souma has some great calves( ˘ ³˘)♥︎

I want to see more of Hakuya!!!!!!!







but i’ll probably remember over and over again

God School Girl Aisha is best Aisha. Al thought I do not know why Souma was ripping her this entire episode. She looked sexy AF in that School Uniform...but i guess his definition of Dark Elves is different lol.

Pretty good episode overall. Polygamy? Harem? We're in boys

Look at that, now they have noodles on the menu.

One thing this show can't do right -from this episode, at least- is action scenes. It wasn't that great.

Kazuya just got a thumbs up to start a harem. Yikes.

I don't get it, the previous king's daughter is Liscia's mother? Who is the previous king? Isn't Kazuya the current king?
So hopefully when they said previous king they meant the king before Elfrieden(King from ep1) cuz if Elfrieden's daughter is Liscia's mother then that would mean incest.

Aisha doesn't deserve getting bullied like that. Everyone has a soft side that's different from your first impressions of them.

I'm more shocked about the 8 days a week thing tbh. Where does that come from? It's like the author wanted 8 girls inside the harem so he introduced this BS about 8 days in a week dialogue by Liscia.
Ofc this show has harem elements, but at least there's no one single 'be-all end-all' ship anymore which can get annoying.

"One flower in each hand" :p
Hakyua is such a sly fox. I thought the show was going to turn into a harem show all of a sudden and what do you know.. I just found out that among its themes here the word 'Harem' is included!
I strongly doubt little Tomoe is going to be a contender (at least I hope not; you never know with the Japanese..), so Princess Liscia and Aisha will apparently compete for the heart of Souma.. No wait, there is also Juna!

I strongly suspect the quality of the show will devolve due to that rivalry.. Btw, I've mentioned it again, in other anime, but it does not hurt to say it one more time: Ueda Reina (Juna's VA) has such an adorably sweet voice doesn't she? :)

Kazuya is acting king so its kind of like trial and king could take the throne back any time he wants, that is until he becomes officially king

I thought that slime was going to be like gelatin but turned into noodles isn't that like accessible since I assumed they would have bread by now

Asking Kazuya to have a day off seems oddly suspicious coming from the smartest guy probably in the world, But that's a date and I know Kazuya's going to take it any day

This thread just reminded me of the worst memory that I had from Liscia's military uniform It's too vague, But at least they had a bit of fun and I guess the harem is here I didn't even know it'll happen.

when Hakuya recomedned to take Aisha as escort and said said: flower in each hand..., it was clear hes pushing him in to harem, others knew its OK in their world, hes only1 who didn't

Polygamy is norm in this world.. Well.. Understandable, why not.. It really is a matter of agreement of the nation and people in it..
Liscia is ok with 8 girls harem, including herself.. Interesting number.. Well, it's for days in the week, hm.. Well, Souma has as potential members of harem so far.. Liscia, Tomoe, Aisha, Juna.. So half of harem.. Maybe we'll meet 4 more of girls later.. If there will be harem, of course..

Man, They really are just bashing Aisha this episode. I mean, if anyone deserves criticism on this date it's Kazuya for bringing another girl to guard them during their date. Aisha didn't warrent all of their jabs, what the hell.

Tbh this show doesn't feel like it's a harem setup judging by the past 4 episodes, and now theres a confirmed harem, it just feels random. As if the author just wants to insert a harem for the sake of it. And that 8 days a week is ridiculous 💀.
