Called it. Noel totally recruited Leon.
He also pulled all the strings from the specific monster they were going to fight to forcing the Winged Knights to disband. I also figured he was going to change their name, since Blue Beyond was the party he basically sold into slavery. Wild Tempest wasn’t something I expected though. Sounds like something you’d see in Slime Isekai.
As a fan of the show, I’m always surprised by how bunny girl never gets cold.
Loner Life Isekai
I just binged this. It was better than I expected but that’s only because I wasn’t expecting much. I think I agree that it doesn’t really deserve a Season 2. Not because it was bad but because by the end of Season 1 it’s no longer Loner Life. Like the whole premise is that he has trash skills and is a loner. By the end he’s OP and not a loner. And they’ve exhausted a lot of the unique story elements such as the wall of skills and the cheat skills so moving forward it would just be generic isekai.
Oh yeah. It starts out very dark and then it’s all sunshine and laughter afterwards. Makes you wonder why they dropped to that tone in the first place.
Now that the 86 is powered up with a Turbo we’re given another weakness: the gearbox. Paddle shifters are just superior, which allows Sawatari to best Kanata’s time, but only barely. He’s none-too-happy about that.
Seeing all these smaller, less powerful, more agile cars doing well in MFG, Yanagida switches from the M6 to an M4.
The Supra also qualifies for the main race. In predictable fashion, Beckenbaur then ones again breaks the course record and takes pole.
Then the drama happens. Rei buys Kanata a traffic safety charm but then gets jealous when she sees the charm Nozomi got him. They get in a fight and she runs off but collapses onto the train tracks from exhaustion. Kanata dives in to save her but injures his left elbow in the process.
Shifting was already going to be a weakness with the 86 but now it’s going to be even worse!
Eurobeat Track: The Snake - Freedom Ride (Eurobeat Version)
Damn, what a cool episode. Sure, most of it was just Rei being a shy adorable girl in Psyger-0’s body, but that sudden reveal at the end… I didn’t expect a rematch with Lycagon so soon! Knowing Pencilgon, she did this knowing full well that Animalia would hunt down Lycagon’s whereabouts for them.
I enjoyed season 1 even if some parts were cliche
Same. it was fun
Not too much happens this episode except some explanation of the McGuffins they’re searching for. I think the most interesting thing is that Hizuki’s Heterochromia seems to have some kind of effect on her. Like with voices and pain.
And then, in true Demon Lord 2099 fashion, we get blindsided by a silly joke at the end.
Oh! That makes sense so…
Green obviously has to be the forest elf.
Pink will be the Kingdom’s princess.
Yellow will be a beastman catgirl.
And Blue… a fairy!
What… what was in the 4th chapter?
I mean, the PV teases that there’s a “steam removed” version of the PV coming soon so… probably ecchi
lol. But look! He clearly turns into Voltron!
Green, Yellow, Blue, Pink and Red combine
Okay, so this looks adorable. I’m definitely going to give it a try.
It’s literally a Power Rangers isekai. How does he transform into Voltron if he’s the only one that got isekai’d though?
Right? Whether her brainwashing is intentional or not has been a question from the start. Sounds like we might finally get some answers.
Oh, I just realized something. Liz is the golden rose. Duke is the blue rose. I suspect Alicia is the black rose. Since both Duke and Alicia seem capable of breaking Liz’s hold on people, I bet that has something to do with it.
After the lackluster episode last week, we finally get another pretty good episode. It’s got all the things we want! Cool Villainess moments! Liz’s followers being big meanies! Prince Duke being creepy! Mel doting on Ali-Ali! Oh, and plot. That’s right, the plot actually moves a few steps.
We get reminded that Laval has been doing… SOMETHING in the background to antagonize the kingdom. Seriously, for some kind of maleficent nation their schemes are as deep as TPing a house. And of course it all comes back to Roana. It’s like all of the world’s problems have to end up there or something.
Then we see Liz use both her light and dark side powers to manipulate Gill and Ms. Freckles, respectively. Ms. Freckles decides to cut some hair without a license, which is a big no-no. So Alicia steps in and sets the new fashion trend.
I found this interesting because Alicia’s really cool Villainess moment there actually served to gain her supporters and loosen Liz’s stranglehold on the students. We also see Duke able to pull Gill out of the brainwashing. It really makes me wonder what the special conditions for Liz’s spell actually are.
Speaking of Liz’s spell, we see Mel at the end discovering just what ability Liz has been using this entire time!
And then of course the episode ends. I’m really looking forward to the reveal next week!
I hate the boys and girls can’t be friends trope that pops up in media.
Same. I think if the title was just “Can Friendship Between Men and Women Exist?” it would be fine since it’s leaving it open, but the “(No, it doesn’t!)” answer spoils it.
Also, I feel like the characters look just like characters from another anime. Or it could just be that they’re so generic as to be indistinguishable from other blue-hair anime girls/black hair anime boy.
Oh geez. Definitely NOT the episode I was expecting. Rather than coming to a resolution, everything becomes far more convoluted.
Seems Liz was completely unaware of her Charm ability. Due to Liz’s mixed emotions in trying to be the ideal Saint, the Charm effect went haywire. It definitely makes it seem like Liz was a tragic figure. But what was with the ancient book changing once Liz possessed it?
@rikka@ani.social
Liz was so quick to dismiss her feelings for Duke despite the fact she was so distraught it made her golden rose wilt.
And right when Alicia is ready to express how she feels for the Prince…
For once, the Prince isn’t acting creepy… and yet it’s still creepy that he doesn’t remember Alicia.
I suspect the book changed when Liz received it to reveal more Saintly secrets and Liz is now using that power to win Duke by making him forget about Alicia but that’s really all conjecture on my part. I really wasn’t expecting this turn of events.
