Oh that is just silly. Kazuhiro thinks that they can actually escape the fantasy world? Not this soon I imagine. Plus, there's a dragon in their world so it's going fantasy for sure.

Kazuhiro and Mariabelle's character chemistry is still the same, not much different from the previous episode and I doubt it will change much either. I bet they'll share the same bed a lot this season.

The answer is always food, guys:





This is elf season in full effect—and also the season where food is the most valuable character. I think this one is clearly an anime to showcase Japan's gastronomy.

"Well at least we can boast about it to our children."
Damn, Kazuhiho is smooth af 😆. I really thought that arcane dragon kinda reminds me alot of Elma from dragon maid lmao. More friends the merrier, the chemistry between the cast is definitely the best part of the show to me.

Mariabelle is who y’all thought Emilia was lol. One of the prettiest designs ever I love her sm already! Another really sweet episode. I love how excited Marie gets about the simplest conveniences on earth. The way she damn near passed out when she saw the bath fill automatically was so cute!

Marie brought up a good point about someone allowing Kazuhiho to go between worlds. It can’t just be a random thing. But who and why? And why put these conditions on his travel, I.e not being able to bring tech that exceeds the level of the fantasy world. Hopefully before the season ends we learn about that! So cute how they had to cuddle up in bed to go back to her world. Whoever made the conditions for travel is clearly a massive Kazuhiho and Marie shipper lol

Bringing the dragon Asahi beer is so real. That’ll convince anyone to be on your side. I should’ve figured when she started talking with a woman’s voice she’d be the other waifu from the key visual! Idk, a beer and bento for an arkdragon blood soaked stone sounds like a good deal lol. This ep went by in a blink

that's quite a grand entrance for introducing new character of an arcane dragon in her human form, i don't know i did misheard of that minor shrieking sound when the dragon want another bento box from Kazuhiho, i hope that was not intended.

and that statement about boasting somehow make Marie blushing, although none of words spoken afterwards.

@lingojk In these kinds of medieval/Victorian era settings herbs and spices are almost exclusively used as a form of currency and medicine. This means that basic things used in the modern kitched; salt, garlic, especially pepper aren't used on food. If you've ever had a meal without spices, including salt, then you'll understand why Maria call that world's food bland and why Wridra gets feisty for a lunchbox. To them it's not just some good food, it's something that doesn't exist anywhere in that world because the food culture is so much lower, a novelty factor.

And this novelty is amplified for entities like Wridra who are supposed to be very long lived because the greatest enemy of the immortal is boredom. So to while to us in the year 2025 a probably cold boxed Katsudon isn't anything special, to a multi hundred year old dragon from a world that doesn't put salt and pepper in the food it is.

Weekly dose of my best girl Marie

The way she obsessed over her bath and bath salt was so sweet. Marie is so damn cute and pretty. As an elf it's given but she will be very top of that list (maybe just behind Sylphiette). Kaede Hondo also doing an fabulous work in making her even more adorable.

So they can switch between worlds through dreaming. That drunk dragon was a hilarious specimen. Seeing one such mysterious thing chowing down certainly an amazing scene. This show is another japanese food propaganda, only though food my bro won in life.

Marie is also all in for living in Japan now. Kazuhiho and Marie such an wholesome couple can't wait to see more of them and more sleeping while hugging.
As I said PEAK male fantasy♥️

Another great episode and I like how they are incorporating Japan Culture into the other world, and vice versa.
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

It's cool they can go between the worlds like that, cross-world isekai is pretty rare nowadays. I didn't expect the dragon to turn human but it's a staple at this point. lol

I’m guessing that Kazuhiho is going to need a bigger bed… Marie, a dragonoid and 3 kids when they hatch all snuggled up with him for visits to Japan! I wonder if magic works in this world, did Marie use any that my brain didn’t notice? If so, things could get rather Kobayashi…

They tamed the Arkdragon, by feeding her! And by giving her a beer or two. But man, I hope he's got a good budget, but being a dragon she has a BIG appetite! LOL

@LacingMaster She is incubating eggs. Quite a different thing. She wouldn't nurse her young, being a reptile. She might guard the while they were small, like crocodiles too ( very good mothers, but then closer to birds than basic reptiles) for a year or two. But yeah, she doesn't go far, she's hungry.

@Pranksteure It is not everyday you happen to bring a promising elf wife-to-be to your world... Mariabelle eats a lot, but I -- and Kazuhiro -- think Marie largely compensates her eating habits... and, being an elf, it is reasonable to state such habits would not harm her health...

The food kind of exceeds that world's tech level though?

Not really because the raw ingredients and compounds for that food exist, they just haven’t been made. Unlike say bringing a cell phone.

The scene with Kazuhiro and Marie cuddling each other to return to her world was cute af! I love this pair.

Man, Marie has such a pretty design and is so cute, Kaede Hondo is doing such a great job voicing her <3. I haven't watched all the shows I want to watch from this season yet but she really is best girl of the season material.

Dragon waifu tho. She's a really fun (and hot) character and from what we see in the ED she will also come with them to Japan... Awesome!

I'm loving the show so far, looking forward to more.

Wow I didn't expect this episode! I thought Mariabelle would be stuck in Japan for most of the show but seeing them be able to go back and forth makes it even more interesting. They are so cute together and seem to be growing even closer together.

I have a feeling something is going to happen to put the dragon in danger and maybe they will save her, and she will owe them a favor. That would be cool to have a dragon owe you one.
