Geez, Takumi has the unfortunate honor of having a huge targe on his back. He's not even a famous celebrity in this show but certain people and faction sure doesn't like him.

And it looks like this anime also wants to summon a hero...hmm. Either way, Takumi is lucky to have his party and his own alchemist abilities to protect himself.

Takumi has now got to keep his head on a swivel now that people are after him but am sure that Sofia and everyone will protect him.

Facepalmed by this episode, here's the correct solution regarding slave contract, just cancel it, and sign a new non-slave contract, or even better if there's no contract at all and living together completely by their own free will.

Takumi made the girls cried... you are being stupid, can't you see those girls want to be with you forever?

He made a new contract with a golem and modified to perfection, so now they should be pretty safe

9 episodes in and Takumi hasn’t grown a bit. Lost some respect from me this episode. Why, after everything you’ve been through, would you think Sofia, Maria and Reyva would leave your side?! They’re not being forced to be there and you’re the first true happiness they’ve felt in their lives, cmon now.

Glad they were able to quickly talk him out of disbanding the party and it didn’t drag on. That “I kind of need you to consent to this” annoyed tf outta me! You’re a family now silly.

Iron golem acquired βœ… Titan’s upgraded body and his Gundam big form are dope lol. Definitely should come in handy against those heroes the princess is summoning.

Speaking of which, are they really gonna end up being that strong? Seems like all they do is thirst after girls and BS. Feel sorry for Akane having to put up with those freaks. I reckon she’ll end up turning and helping Takumi

Also the princess is very clearly Anat or possessed by her right? That explains why Nolyn’s assistant feels a stronger presence now.

the writers are doing nothing at all to make the isekai'd male heroes to the other kingdom likeable at all they appeared this episode for like not even a minute and they're even more insufferable than Akira alone last episode, shine shitty chuuni kids πŸ˜‚πŸ’’πŸ’’πŸ’’πŸ’’πŸ’’

tiny titan was really cute thoooooooooooooooooo

I love how one episode it was like here's our party's name and literally an episode later here is like well akchshually β˜πŸ€“, these guys can't get a break 😒
no joke after Maria's comment before she continued crying I thought she was gonna make a toilet comparison again which would've ruined the mood so good thing they didn't πŸ˜‚

Takumi towards the end showcasing Titan, ohhhh mannnnnnn he really let his inner child come out with this one, feels a bit sentai and very mecha too πŸ˜‚


yeh tho this is definitely not a one season feature, they are not resolving all the shitty kingdom issue in 3 episodes and this one will most definitely be scoped for a season 2, wouldn't even be surprised if they announced season 2 around the last episode
heck we haven't even seen this orange ponytail half-beast woman yet either! no way they're making her part of the main group and only have her in for like 10 minutes in total or something, and if it does conclude this season you might as well have Papek there instead πŸ˜‚

It ended up being up a pretty good and emotional episode.
Seems like the end game is near.
The golem is a fun addition to the group.

This is one of those shows you drop, but then skim through to see if it ever gets better. Well it doesn't. Never noticed before, but they got the name wrong- "Someday will I be the greatest alchemist?" literally written in English next to the Japanese title during the intro.

Sometimes I wonder how this show has such a high rating on CR. The MC seems kind of bland, not to mention clueless. Trying to disband your party that have all vowed to fight with & stay with you until death is not only ignorant, its cruel.
I must agree with Akane, your former classmates are just that: SCUMBAGS.
ROFLMAO. He turned that Golem into a transformer!

I’ll give Takumi one thing, I think he’s the first Isekai MC I’ve seen try and get rid of his harem lol, there’s something I respect about that but it did feel like forced drama, I mean didn’t they just come up with a party name? I know this church assassins thing is a big deal but come on my boy, these girls are the definition of ride or die, you’re gonna need the strength to pull out King Arthur’s sword times three before you can even consider getting rid of them lol, but at least this ended with Takumi realizing how dumb that decision was.

And just like that it’s back to goofy shenanigans with Takumi and his golem, I’m ngl I kinda liked it better before he revamped it but his reaction to his combination robot complete with a hangar was pretty funny, the harem did refuse a man joining the party but they didn’t say anything about a gundam lol. And of course there was more stuff with the empire/church, those two male heroes have become completely corrupt but Akane still holds strong, still doubting we actually get to see any confrontation but surely something big will happen as we near the end of the season.

The episode felt really rushed, and why did they have to have that stupid trope of "oh, let me release you so that you'll be safer". Just shows how immature he is.

yeah MC really lost respect there. I can tolerate the typical "I'm a bastion of purity in terms of pure altruism, being super against harming others, and being so chaste the idea of a hug makes my brain explode", that's just standard affairs at this point in anime land

but bro just shat all over the will and feelings of his whole party there. that was just sad. they deserve better than that

takumi's finally got another "man" around lol
but those two summoned heroes are badly corrupted, i can't wait to see their downfall and eventual fall from grace. it shows just how weak-minded they both are from the start to be corrupted that easily. they gave in to their desires so easily.

I really don't understand how the male MC could be so oblivious to there thoughts and feelings, I mean during this entire time they keep showing their undying loyalty to the male MC, but he just continues to ignore everything and to push everyone away, I hope this is the last time we see him do that.

Or else it will just causing them to force him to shut up and let them stay by force.

Hahahahaha! πŸ˜…

@phantomfandom Looks like their contract are treated like somewhat promise ring, it twisted. I quite like plot of this show except harem thing. Unfortunately, it dominates most of the story.

@phantomfandom I don't think Takumi stayed around them without the slave contract. He has a sense of responsibility with them because of it. Since they were attacked at his home, I think once he negated the contracts, he would have run away without them figuring it was the best action. They didn't want that, so that's why they chose to keep their contracts.

@ejleon Takumi panic. They attacked him at his own home, where he thought he was safe. He had never experienced anything like that before. Plus, they were after his life, and seeing a knife next to Sofia neck made him feel extremely helpless. He felt this was his problem, and they got caught in cross-fire. So, he made the decision on what he thought was best at the moment to isolate himself from everyone. He just didn't know how to deal with the emotions he had at the moment. In the end, they accepted what was going on and chose to stay. That is what Takumi needed to hear. That was my take in the situation.

Thank you for explaining.

I understand that is what the anime is using to explain his decision, including him not being a fighter that could protect them like he would want to.

It’s just, after everything that has happened between them, why not ask them what they want to do first and consider their perspectives and mindset, working out everything together?

He is always making decisions first, then the girls have to disagree and insist on this or that, till he finally realizes and recognizes their true feelings and thoughts on the matters at hand.

If things are that bad and he has to put his foot down, then it would be after they discussed the issues and concerns, so that they couldn’t dispute him on his choice.

So as I said before, it seems that Sidonia has caught on to Iruma being responsible for the purification magic, which has taken away some of the money that Sidonia gets (via purifying the water, but since Iruma’s Purification devices prevent the sewers from getting dirty, there is no longer any demand). This attack has motivated Iruma to make some decisions.

Such as, taming Titan to guard himself and his house. Titan seems to have some connection to Nolyn, as he was created to guard the ruins related to Nolyn. Iruma even went all out creating a mecha body for him, which I’ll admit looks pretty cool.

What I didn’t expect was the emotional scene in which Iruma talks about dissolving his contracts with Sofia, Maria, and Reyva, but they express just how hurt they are by this and in the end, they all stay together, and they will likely be together forever.

Nolyn foreshadowed some things that may be in play in the future. Firstly, due to Sidonia’s believers, Anat is being created and might become an evil spirit. Secondly, she mentioned that she gave Iruma Takumi a body meant to stop Sidonia’s antics, meaning that Iruma can’t simply live a peaceful life with Sofia and the others.

Since last week Episode 9 wasn’t released (the English Dub specifically), I’m gonna watch Episode 10 next so for those who are reading this, you’ll see me post my Episode 10 reaction soon…

Takumi caring for the girls well being is understandable, he doesn't want them to get hurt but of course the girls don't want for that to happen. But considering that he wasn't a teen in his previous world, he sure lacs the balls and a certain lever of maturity.

Titan looks cool with it's small and big body, gave Mecha vibes, would be a great asset in future just like the girls.

Was there ever any doubt that Takumi's group would break up? I get that the episode needed some character drama, but it feels a bit contrived and there was no way the group would separate, especially with Reyva having just joined the team.

The Divine Light Squadron targeting Takumi, while the Kingdom of Barcula provides the greatest protection, the town of Bolton still presents a danger, so finding additional people to would help, though it's better to just focus on their efforts for now. With the failure of the Squadron, however, Sidonia has to backtrack prioritizing on summoning its heroes instead, as Takumi readies his magic items to deal with golems, which is quite the distance away from when they faced the Treants.

Finding one golem is beginner's luck, but to face a menace like the one they're facing, and even managing to tame it, Titan would be quite the ally for a Guardian Golem. While Akane repulses from Akira and Yamato indulging in their egos, Takumi managing to tame Titan, but leaving Sofia, Maria and Reyva by dissolving their contracts to avoid putting them in danger, this is blatant disrespect by ignoring their feelings and just regard his own. Man, better humble up and realize that they're part of your party, and for all it's worth, Titan being the mecha that he's been longing for this while, everything is now perfect.

The seeds of war have begun to move, for bad and worse.
