Urrrrgh, the urge to talk about it! I can’t though - as I’m re-reading the LN right now. At least, until the next episode.
My main account is at /u/[email protected], I use this one mostly for weaboo stuff.

Urrrrgh, the urge to talk about it! I can’t though - as I’m re-reading the LN right now. At least, until the next episode.
It was an OK episode, I guess. A bit unfulfilling as a season ending episode, but I’m glad to see Mireille joining the ranks after showing her value, without lowering the value of the other vassals.
The whole thing feels so awkward, but I’m glad that it does. It would feel really off if either knew exactly what to say, and how to say it.
This has been a long year. And I’m glad to be here.
Keep in mind that the series are only similar when it comes to the protag hating the goddess, but past that they’re really different. Like, Makoto is by no means as sly and deceitful as Touka, while Seras (the deuteragonist elf in the PV) is there for the drama (unlike Tomoe and Mio).
Still, I think that it’s worth checking out.
It was overall a good episode. A nice mix of action, romance, and the marriage to kick in. I guess that the next episode will be their early life as a married couple?
I wasn’t expecting Lavinia to show up though. My sides went into orbit!
She’s half-lying when she says that she’s just there to “take a look at his eccentric bride”; she’s Oscar’s maternal grandmother, it’s literally her grandson’s marriage. I don’t think that Tinasha knows this because of her wondering about “if witches didn’t intervene”, well, then your hubby wouldn’t be born you baka.
This is likely related to why Lavinia cursed the Farsas’ royal family. Her daughter Rosalia (Oscar’s mother) is dead as the series start; she probably cursed her son-in-law Kevin (Oscar’s father, former king) out of sorrow, or Kevin did some major fuckup when treating his wife.
Aah, I really need to read this LN…
Exactly my thought!
It was a decent ride, I guess. Not overly exciting; but I like how ending the season with Gobjii’s death gives it a “book endings” feel, at the start we see a bunch of goblins being born and then one dying, while the others move on with their lives.
And goddammit Aporou, let a dying person talk.
Depending on how they do it, the animation might be really fun. The story has the same “driving force” as Tsukimichi, of a character wanting revenge on the goddess that dumped him in a world; but it’s far more serious, the overpowered skills aren’t as flashy, there’s no “city building” aspect but a lot of “my strategy beats yours”.
And it’s overall a good method. Language learning combos really well with fiction media, there’s lots of room to create simple sentences that still make sense within that work (like they’re doing with the “recipes”), and the series is popular so it’s overall more enjoyable. (A good chunk of language learning is to keep yourself motivated.)
For reference: I’ve learned the basics of Latin through a similar method, but instead of Dungeon Meshi it was Aulularia (a Roman slapstick comedy). More than a decade later and I still have simple sentences from the method stuck in my head.
Pfffffft. Furio and Lys can’t get some privacy, can they? GODDAMMIT AND OF COURSE THE MAOU WOULD FUCK THINGS UP.
(I really liked this episode.)
Sofia’s face when Makoto correctly understood how the Prison of Swords worked, and proceeded to destroy the swords, was amazing!
As well as Makoto’s “sorcerer? close combat fighter? nah, I’m an archer!”. Sofia was having such a hard time with Makoto, only to discover that he wasn’t even playing his strongest cards yet.
If not for Rudeus’ monstruous mana pool they would be all dead. He kept a water wall against three heads dragonbreathing the group.
…hard to talk about this episode without giving spoilers on what comes next. (The LN equivalent is vol12 ch9, by the way.) The fight was exciting, and it ended in such a sorrowful note (Paul is dead, Rudeus lost an arm, there’s something wrong with Zenith). A rollercoaster of emotions, really - and it shows how much Rudeus evolved, from the distance towards his Earth parents to the concern about his new ones.
Poor Rudeus, not being recognised by his shishou. …but on her defence would you? He was a kid back then.
It’s a great way to reset the relationship though - now she doesn’t see him as a brat, but as a man. And she’s clearly into him. (And “curiously” in no moment he mentioned to be married to white mama, at most that he is not married to black mama.)
Telling his own son that it’s totally OK to get a second wife, because they’re different, and that once you get used to this life you won’t be able to go back. With a swords analogy. Got to respect Paul for being scum even inside a labyrinth.
It’s really cute to see how much Lys improved in the kitchen, from “raw meat = ITADAKIMASU!” to fun and delicious dishes with decent plating. And the animation did a good job keeping her consistent between lupine and humanoid forms - you see that big wolf, but you know that it’s Lys, simply by her behaviour towards Flio.
Hibiki has no standing ground to call Makoto’s super awesome armour “weird cosplay”. Just saying~
The episode felt like a warm-up for the next one, I’m mildly excited to see Makoto vs Sofia.
I’ve been watching Shinigami Bocchan s3, and kind of surprised that people aren’t too much into the series. It’s fun, and I’m fairly certain that the story is reaching its conclusion.
Glad to see that the issue was solved in a bloodless way. It might be naive, but it fits rather well the idealism of the series.
Her cats are more well-behaved than mine, who sleeps on my belly. As if it was a mix of pillow, vertical rocking chair (it goes up… down… slowly… on itself!), and heating stone. Specially now in winter.
This pic is a great mix of cute and sexy by the way.
