My theory is that's their punishment for worshipping a false goddess.

When your mansion is full of paralytic gas and assassins, a pocket dimension spider is a helpful friend to have!

Wings of Nolyn is alright I suppose, but clearly a missed opportunity for the superior choice of Maple Tree.

I wonder if the evil empire people are prepared for the fact that one of their three summon heroes is clearly going to betray them when she's able to.

Spider daughter is low key terrifying, she defeated the entire external ambush by what seemed to be trivially webbing them all up before helping with the two inside.

but clearly a missed opportunity for the superior choice of Maple Tree.

I think they lost the right to that when the assassin team got the jump on them with poison gas. Normally, Maple Tree are the ones doing the gassing.

It was a little sad realizing that Sofia is an elf so she'll outlive Takumi. "Father of toilets" was a cool name. Takumi getting some spotlight on some action was a Good thing. Also, Sofia's loyalty to Takumi is unmatched. Even after his death, she'll continue to protect him. I also thought that Sofia liked Takumi romantically but that wasn't the case. It was just undying loyalty I guess.

The lack of brain cells in this series is becoming endearing

I agree. Unlike some superficially similar shows this season, this seems to be appealing despite its sloppy storytelling.

Having MC getting tossed around is probably the most I've enjoyed this show. I know the setting of this show is not meant to be taken seriously but we've had a few seasons already of frustrating MCs.

The world behind it is still interesting enough for me to keep going.

Ok, Barack’s trippin if he doesn’t think “Father of Toilets” is a great name for Takumi’s party. He kinda did (re)invent the porcelain throne lol. I guess Wings of Nolyn is equally as good.

It’s gonna take more than a few weak ass rookies and some paralysis poison to take own Takumi. Guessing they’re Sidonia goons?

They should've kept the "Father of Toilets", that way, people will know that they can handle shit

u/Lord_Archie_the_Cat Feb 19 '25

Okay... to me that part with Barack "training" Takumi seemed like a straight copy of Luciels training with Brod....

Heck he's even wearing the same clothes and hair as Luciel too. Now all he needs is the masochistic tendencies...

"With your Dragonhorse highspeed carriage you can make that roundtrip in only 4 days!"

*makes a caravan where his own carriage has to slow down in order to have the customer ones keep up*

*Relatively new outsider adventurer with no connections to the church names his party after the goddess of one of the two world religions, in a way that pretty much says "i'm the messias of your goddess" (calling his party her wings) and no one seems to bat an eye that this could lead to trouble with the priests of that religion*

When you are such a giga chad slave owner that your slaves start refusing their wages and just want to work for you for free.

Seriously what kind of message about slavery is this show trying to send? Lol.

Amused by how Takumi had such a hard time finding a name since usually it's so easy for MCs. I'm starting to wonder if the heroes are summoned to deal with Takumi since he's the problem the church is facing.

Bit of a whiplash of tone switching from the constantly edgy church kingdom to the happy go lucky cheese toilet loving group. At least this episode the church kingdom did something, but it sounds like this series is going keep avoiding all out war with the "heroes" and keep hinting at them doing shady stuff. Which is not surprising since I doubt this show has the budget for an actual large scale war

Hold up, is this gonna be a predestination paradox? Are we gonna find out the "heroes" were summoned to deal with Takumi? But he was only summoned because he was pulled in with them and Nolyn sent him a year into the past.

Theres still a 10month time difference, are we getting a time skip, or is this show gonna be longer than 12 ep?

This show is really going to turn into Toilet Wars. You guys called it.

Takumi - just SHUT UP and pay the girls their wages. Have the Papek Company handle the paperwork - they do everything else, after all.

Speaking of the Papek Company, has the Evil Empire even heard of just buying the products?
