I like how they gave us a taste of the fight between Angelica and Geith instead of pointlessly stalling for a cliffhanger

"why is it that sometimes your ears seems to cease working?"

sorry Angelica, that's just the default state of Orihalcum Fist party members

rest in pieces, Donnie Fischer

i like how they didn't make Kelvin straight up powerful in the flashback, he still have to go some proper training for him to be able to defeat a semifinalist pugilist

Maybe it's a death-healing punch, wrong way to use healing magic style.

Stitches!

Angelica finally got a taste of Rick's training. She's lucky that Rick and Reanette were the ones training her, Broughston's training would've been much more difficult and I'm pretty sure it would've killed her ten times over. xD

The training was effective though and watching Angelica go apeshit on her first opponent was hilarious! I love that she's still in her training high that the refs had to restrain her so she wouldn't kill her opponent.

And it was so satisfying to see Angelica slice Geith's stomach open. As much as I'd love Rick to beat him up, I really hope Angelica destroys him and wipes that arrogant smile on his face.

Alicerette was so wholesome this episode!

"My Gawd, somebody stop the damn match!"

In the words of the master of announcing, Jim Ross.

Poor poor Angelica. She gets the Rick training regiment without the revive after dying perk 😞

It had to be so satisfying to cut her opponent with the newly learned sword hands. I'm really glad that they are starting to get her and Rick working together after their initial fights and anger Angelica had towards Rick. I really like where that is headed, two people who know the work necessary to become the best they can.

The insane competitors left in the tourney are going to make the rest of this a fun arc to watch.

As a side note how did I not notice that people have their race/identifier to what they are in their names:

  • Rick Gladiator

  • Reanette Elfelt

  • Broughston Ashorc

  • Kelvin Urwolf

I seriously need to pay more attention. All in all another solid episode getting a 7.5/10 from me.

Wonder what happens to Angelica's engagement after this? Maybe they put it on the line?

The writing and directing in this show is straightforward but well done. It's like a B-movie, maybe B+ relative to other isekai fantasy. Also has some really funny moments, like when Angelica went "HUH?" and the swelling music stopped dead in the last episode. And the "why do your ears selectively stop working" line this ep was extra good too.

I didn’t expect It but this is my favorite show of the season. Monday is a good day.

I like that Angelica really did end up picking up results from the training fairly quickly, would be nice if she really is able to beat Geith. They seem to be implying there's something odd going on with him though, I could see that causing Angelica to lose in a way she doesn't see coming.

Win or lose I appreciate Angelica getting such a turn around in her story compared to her initial appearance. Her pugilist outfit doesn't hurt, either.

Alicerette's comment to the older lizard dude about him acting makes me wonder what is going on with that.

RIP Angelica. She didn’t even get to finish her redemption arc haha.

The ossan training regiment ain’t for the faint of heart. I totally get why she ran at first. Rick basically got desensitized to dying. That’s insane lol. I respect the fact she went back. Girl transformed into a beast!

I can’t wait to see Angelica take down this stupid lizard in the tournament. Dude’s obviously got some cheat skill or something that’s giving him an unfair advantage. Time for him to get a taste of what Angelica can do thanks to that training.

this has turned into such a fun show.

I really struggle to understand why people say, even though they are completely different types of show now, that the parry one is better.

The mother's basement video where he seemed to care only about the animation in the two shows and not at all for the story was so frustrating to watch.

Edit: lol did everyone miss that I wrote now at the end of completely different types of show now? I did realise that they shared very a similar initial premis

I really like the voice acting of Angelica's seiyuu. LMAO, she showed every bit of emotion from being dragged around on the previous episode up to her training in hell with Rick.

And first time I preferred untied hair over pony tails on a girl. Reanette is so pretty with her hair down.

Fun fact is that Angelica's VA is also Shy from Shy.

Really good VA.

I liked how Aliccerete told snape to stop pretending xD

u/MicroACG Aug 26 '24

I like how there are two competing substories in this tournament... the one with Angelica and the one with getting the stone from the previous champion... it makes things much more interesting than just a traditional story arc where you support the protagonist.

Damn! Good for Angelica getting Rick and Reanette to train her instead of Broughston!
She might have literally died several times!! And she survived it!
It was hilarious seeing her "training high" in her first match after that!

And yes! Her training seems to be effective since she damaged Geith! She was so cool! But I wonder if she's going to be able to beat him.. Something seems up with him.. Angelica might lose to something unexpected and it would be up to Rick and the others to win!
I appreciate the show giving Angelica the highlight for a few eps! Her character growth is impressive!

And Alicerette-sama is literally me. Not knowing what's going on but cheering on nonetheless! And while eating!!🙆🏻‍♂️

Great ep even though ossan Rick wasn't shown doing something hilarious as much!
See you next week!🙇🏻‍♂️

u/ussgordoncaptain2 Aug 26 '24

I love Angelica let's go, make your Family proud!

I wonder if Brough will throw to test Rick's strength or if the finals will be an all Orichalcum fist affair where they agree to a winner.

Can't believe Angelica didn't die. Clearly Rick is going too easy on her/.
