I’m actually fine with Welkin and Alicia having hurdles in the development of their relationship. But for Welkin to return to Isara is unexpected because I don't think the story is going in that direction. If anything, It almost give an indication that Welkin won’t take any immediate action to save his relationship with Alicia because he has Isara there with him which is frustrating.

the song at the background of the last part ("No Matter The Distance..." by JUJU, original game opening) is enough to make this 10/10

I really wanted that Welkin confessed properly. It's kinda frustrating XD He can't make the same mistake as Largo!! x3 And Faldio is kina annoying me.. but that's my opinion. Welkin doesn't have to be such a good guy that he gives Alicia to Faldio! Even though Faldio is a really good guy.

There is the possibility that Faldio is not truly interested in Alicia, but is just trying to speed up things between her and Welkin. It might be the only way to make Welkin
realize his feelings for Alicia.

Doing something like that during war time seems wrong somehow. Might get you killed, although Welkin is cruising for a bruising right now.

lol..that was funny when Largo accidentally said Varrot's name. Varrot actually looked pretty good when she was younger. Really didn't expect Isara to be a tease. Her personality is a little different from the game. The anime is making Alicia's relationship problem much more complicated than in the game. Well i'm interested in how this show will take things...I'm still enjoying it so far..even with the differences from the game.

Good episode. I seriously banged my head on my desk when Welkin decided to swallow his pride and basically "give" Alicia to Faldio at this point. Its a little frustrating now, but it is good to see their development a little bit at least.

We do need more war. But I wonder if that's why they are doing all this now.

If I was Alicia I would have went running to Faldio and said fine i'll go out with you because Welkin has no interest in me, only bugs and animals, eww, jk.

I'm hoping they can at least keep their cool on the battlefield. It doesn't seem like the Alicia/Welkin thing was cleared up at all. At least Alicia knows Welkin doesn't hate her.

Awww...Welkin..you...you...It's Frustating..Jeezz

Well at least we know how much alicia love him..n we know how Welkin felt about Alicia..

It's really Funny watching Largo n Welkin Chat in Bathroom..especially when Largo is Blushing...What Largo mention is "try to not make the same mistake as i did"..but instead Welkin do the opposite...Poor Alicia..

Giving up Alicia to Faldio is NOT a good solutions eventhough it may sound heroic by sacrificing yourself for your friend's sake, i think Welkin is not weak he is just being selfish. ^^

Well i hope Welkin make a come back for the next episode..Sometimes love is a selfish being right mate?

Isara is such a MOE don't you agree??

I agree with you..Isara is the key..since she is the only girl (right now) that can Support Welkin whenever he feels down.. i think Isara is the key for Alicia n Welkin Relations..

Welkin just reversed the Alicia Social Link. He's gonna have to work hard to get that patched up.

Is that the Marberry Shore battle in the next episode? We're getting close, aren't we?

Also, LOL to the report at 7:50 through the episode.

I could see the episode ending there on a sort of cliffhanger, maybe. Another option is putting it halfway through 18 and having the second half of 18 be the aftermath.

that f**** up the whole series. I don't want to see that ever again. Maybe I should skip that episode and ignore the fact that it happened. Last time it did I punched the wall out of frustration.

No seriously, this is turning into a romance series. We need more action.

I think that this is most likely going to happen. Or they have the instant aftermath in the same episode, maybe skip the ED and have some insert song or something instead.

As long as they don't just leave it with it happening and a few scenes, and then move on to another location/plot arc in the next episode, it'll work.

In any case, the only reason this was a good episode was because of Largo in the bath. :3

Aside from that, they're spending waaaay too much time messing around with that stupid love triangle.

Too. Much. Romance. But we finally get back to the war...on the beach...it's gonna happen soon...

Did anyone else notice that when Selvaria was a little girl, Maximillian looked EXACTLY the same as he does in the present? Creepy o_O
And wasn't Largo's best friend supposed to be Varrot's brother in the game?

Consequentially you can't compare this to the game because it is based on the manga and not the game. So no one can really make a comparison.

But I will agree with others in that I do like the game better.

I'm glad Welkin didn't dish his heart out. He may seem "stupid" and "air-headed" now, but-- if the anime does it right-- it'll be well worth it later on. Trust me. Hell, one of my favorite parts in the game.

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.
Exactly how old are Maximilian and Selvaria?
They talked about him as though he is this young guy, but there is clearly a large gap between his and Selvaria's ages...and Selvaria has to be at least 18 (though before this I though she was in her late 20s to early 30s). That's not how I thought the gap would go.

Besides that, I liked the episode a little, even though it was quite slow and full of cliches.

Hmm, I've never played the game nor read the manga, so I dunno about that. And I don't wanna know abt that from any of you, thanks.

Even though I saw it coming, I still got pretty worked up when Welkin gave Alicia up. It's way too early for the I-love-you-you-love-me-too-let's-live-happily-ever-after to happen. But having given up a girl before (and not even to a friend, to a stranger! yeah, i have self-confidence issues), it's hard to keep my cool when I see other people, even virtual people, make the same mistake.

I think any girl will find it hard to not tease Ramal. :)
