Episode is fine but I can't help but recognize that perhaps any character in this show has their motivations on their goals.

And to be honest, this is one of those episodes where it felt like wizards needs to be on their guard more. At least Arthur is trustworthy enough in this show, at least for now.

They’re all good people one way or the other, but yeah, everyone has their motivations and beliefs. I find that a highlight of the show. In fact, an important part of part 2 is Akira finding a way to lead them without overlooking their unique points.

What moron thought it wise to present half of the episode's dialog in flash cards that appear for less than a second? No human reads that fast, and Crunchyroll lacks any sort of frame skip or slow motion controls. Baka!

I suppose the summon is actually the gacha system.

Ngl I’m really confused by the plot so far. A lot of stuff keeps happening but I’m not following how we keep getting there. Plus the MC has such NPC energy, she really doesn’t do a whole lot so far. The speed at which they flash the screen with words on it is absolutely infuriating

I’m so confused by the plot at this point I’m kinda just watching because of my no drop rule lol. I understand we’re trying to stop the great calamity and the sage is summoning wizards to help to that, but it feels like so much is happening so quick and other times not much is going on. Idk, it is a long running gacha game so that’s just kinda what comes with the territory but man, this is all over the place lol.

Moral of the story, be a cute cat lady and you’ll get isekai’d into a world with hot guys.

Arthur does look pretty cool and the new wizards she summoned are interesting.. feels like a powder keg waiting to explode with all these different cultures and ideas mixed together though. Some of the wizard countries are way more hot headed than the others. A mixer is probably the best way to break the ice with everyone.

Ahh, so the rest of the squad is here~
Now we're really getting started! This episode was really enjoyable for me (Mitile and Rutile appearance?!) and I LOVED seeing them all in action.
I'm glad they explained how Calamity injured each one of the wizards but this makes me wonder if they will explain other very interesting thing! (That'd be a spoiler, so let's just wait and see~)

Overall I'm really pleased with this anime, I adore it so much!
Also it was funny how they used gacha screens from the game (literally, that's the summoning animation) to introduce the characters - it was charming and fitting. <3

WTF is with the subliminal messages? They’re up for a second. I had to rewind several times just to see what was written. Something better happen soon.

Yes, like many of u already pointed out, the story is ok so far, and I'm not really getting much feel from the mc so for, and I would love to think it would improve BUT the flash cards are seriously irritating me SOOO MUCH, even though I'm using an app which can reduce speed, it's taking me 3-4 rewind to pause it and then the next second ANOTHER one appears and I hv to rewind AGAIN. I seriously seriously hope they would at least give one second so ppl can pause to read it. Them reading it like other animes would be much more preferable even if it takes more time.

Although it was boring at the beginning, I liked this episode. At the end it reminds me of our first introduction with Hogwarts when they were floating at the boats and saw lights everywhere.

In general this episode was good. I like all the character designs and I don't understand why the plot is confusing for some people. They're explaining everything very detailed. We know about the calamity and how the calamity influence the wizards who fought against it. We also learned that the different areas south, west, north and the middle have they're individual meanings. We saw an counterattack from the humans who getting an beat up with the new wizards arriving. The MC is very useless so far but she interacts with the different wizards very good. Arthur seems like a very good character who holds the human faction and the wizard faction in harmony.

So I'm really intrigued now and I looking forward to the next episode.

P.S. the translations for the informations were confusing and hard to read.

This is an anime that you have to watch for what it is: a good way to see ikemen and hear good seiyuu. If you start looking for a worked scenario, that's where it gets bad, even if I've seen much worse! I had a good time and that's all that matters.
