THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
The demons have caught wind of Rin, the 800-year old Idaten still alive, so what better way than to exterminate the weak ones first, yet some don't realize that Ysley, more than an acting Idaten, is a spy as well.

Same goes with Rin, where the knowledge of the Zoble Empire is made known to her. And it's off for Ysley and Paula to do their own research while dragging the dismembered Hayato along...while the world monitor Prontea participates in Tamiya car races to kill off time. Love the art aesthetic creativity of those scenes though.

Hotaena, the human land of freedom where everything is typical for everyone enjoying the free real estate, and getting some infodump on the magic through Prontea and Ysley's research. Hah, not even Prontea can escape from the nightmare that is Rin, the master and apprenticeship kinda funnily warped though. But there's a need of necessity to train both Hayato and Paula to prepare for the impending battle, and Prontea indeed has skill to back him up.

So Ysley was the one who kept the demon specimens for his research, once thhe beast Gyudo, and now with Nickel's head. Piscalat brings the fight to Ysley within a small confined space, while Hayato still contends with Prontea's training, and man, Prontea is another monster like Rin, he's well taught.

Piscalat vs. Ysley, Neput vs. Prontea, and Cory vs. Hayato and Paula...let the demons vs. Idaten 3-on-3 battle begin!

Nice set up episode for next week which should be awesome with the matchups we’ve got. Prontea is pretty funny, he and Hayato’s banter was great. I’m still kinda wondering if the nun from the first two eps made it out alive. She’s in the OP so I feel like she’ll be back at some point.

Can’t get over how much the OP and ED slap.

Pretty enjoyable episode. Hayato screaming granny as usual. And we've finally met Prontea, he's a pretty strong guy. And a scaredy cat for Rin xD

I wonder how Ysley will deal with Piscalat, being such a weak deity he's made out to be, at least compared to Hayato, Rin and Prontea. I can only hope he has some plan.

The wait for this show every week seems so long, much longer than every other show this season. This episode left me hype for next week once again.

Another banger episode but im not sure the logic always follows...

Yesly doesn't want to destroy Zoble because the other world powers (hoetana & another unnamed country) would likely duke it out for supremacy i guess that makes sense but I'm pretty sure yesly & prontea could force the unnamed power to surrender pretty much by themselves

Also the demons automatically believe the idaten are allied with humans to study demons which while true there isn't evidence to reach that conclusion much less zero onto one specific country especially when we know there is at least one other major world power.

Why did ysley go to hoetana under water if not to throw off Zoble/demons? If that was the purpose why did he believe the demons knew what country they were in to zero into prontea training hayato?

This episode felt like 5 minutes. I know I am saying this every episode but this keeps getting better with each passing episode. Next episode is looking to be extremely hype. Ysley's fight would probably be the most interesting one.

Prontea seems to be a strong a very strong Idaten in his own right despite being traumatized by Rin's training. Although Prontea may not be as strong as Rin physically, he has some powerful magic attacks. However, the demons are staying away from Rin for now and have decided to target Ysley, Paula, and Hayato instead. Next episode will be a mini battle between Idaen and Demons and I can't wait to see that.

These demons are honestly pretty quick with moving on with their plans, even after getting one of their guys utterly destroyed by Rin. Especially now they have to deal with Prontea, one of Rin's older students. He seems like a cool kid. Love how Hayato is the complete opposite of him, Hayato just doesn't stay down for Rin, while Prontea is completely traumatized by her.

Looking forward to the Ysley vs Piscalat battle! Looks to be the most interesting setup for next week.

Ysley seems to be the most interesting character so far. I wonder who is the protagonist. My guess would be Rin or Hayato, I hope it's not the latter since he just seems like a generic shounen protagonist so far. Or at least I hope there is more to him.

Another great episode, hyped for next week!

Yesly figured they would know were they went due to a scene cut from the anime. Namely while travelling under water they stumble into Cory the young demon while he was eating fish, which cause them to run from each other (Yesly and Paula cause Hyato is out and they can’t handle him, and Cory cause he is afraid Rin is with them.) Cory’s reports allows the Demon Lord and Piscala to figure where they are going.

Pretty sure the nun will play an important role, as you said she was in the OP. Honestly want her to get revenge but we'll see what the show does.

Well, never expect another fights happening soon, not even need a dragging out 3 to 4 episodes of setting up, like one seasonal show i watch. They only need half episode for the real set thing up, and then the other half used to matching up their own opponents. Direct hit. Nice.

The interesting part surely goes to Yssley and Prontea. Since this two might've lead and show some good shit against their own demon opponents. Prontea also an interesting kind of Idaten. Introduced as some ex traumatic dude, expected under Rin's direct sadist teaching, he unexpectedly quite cool while moving around. His battle will be nice, but the spotlight shall be change to the last three of the younger Idaten; Hayato, Paula, and Yssley. My take fall to the last one, the glasses boy surely had a plan against that careless demon chick. She is obviously choosing the wrong target, battling someone under their own domain, alone. You trapped him? Looks like you are the one that trapped there. So, take a good care of her, Yssley. Kek.

This is just a straight-up fun anime to watch. Nothing too complex going on, doesn’t take itself too seriously, and has a very uncommon presentation style. It would benefit a lot from even better animation, but that would probably be asking too much for a project like this given how it is already above-average in quality. Certainly an AOTS contender.

While the demons were talking about the Idatens not killing humans all that, all I was thinking was that they don't give a fuck about that and then next thing you know Rin was getting ready to massacre a whole country lmao.

Prontea with that Ronald Mcdonald looking ass. He's really cool though, just don't mention Rin when he's in close proximity, he might be scared shitless but his training definitely paid off.

Piscalat is fucked in the head (well all the demons are), but can't deny that she is hot as hell. The manga of this is definitely high up my priority list now, I'll start reading it once I get through some other mangas. Looking forward to the next episode.

Pretty sure the nun will play an important role, as you said she was in the OP. Honestly want her to get revenge but we'll see what the show does.


I looked into the manga online and the way the rape was handled in that medium makes me doubt that the nun was anything other than fodder for the point Ysley was making in episode 2 about the Idaten not getting involved with human problems.

In other words, I hope you are right and I am wrong but an overwhelming amount of manga and anime tend to turn to rape for (1) shock (2) yuck, titillation or (3) smfh, both.

Of course, there's context for it here (wartime atrocity in this one, revenge in Redo of Healer, Goblins Goblin-ing in Goblin Slayer etc) but the way and reason why it's presented is what I'm getting at.

I'm digressing, forgive me.

Would be really interesting and BOLD if the nun does show up as part of the main cast, in my opinion, though if handled wrong (her being hell-bent on revenge / her being a forgiving saint) she may become a hated / unrealistic character.

the match-up on the last part was pretty intense!
Ysley versus Piscalat
Prontea versus Neput
Cory versus Hayato & Paula
well i guess Neput is gonna have a hard time against Prontea since Prontea is like playing game with Hayato!
Ysley on the otherhand might be interesting.
And Hayato might have some fun messing with Cory!
5/5.

Just read the manga it’s only up to chapter 39 atm. Chapter 16 has all the answers for those 3 questions. They’re skipping quite a bit of context which I makes the story a bit difficult to grasp around.
