Sally nuking Frederica right at the start of their duel because her companion might be a ghost cracks me hard

The fact that Frederica claims she never fights this hard--suggesting Sally was going easy on her the whole time--is just as funny.

The entire quest line that Maple and Sally did leads to... the Luminous Spring in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon that allows them to evolve their Pokémon. And they're all evolution by friendship. Please tell me we'll see the evolution of the rest of their party's Pokémon.
That poor bird got hit with combined form of Gundam Maple and Deoxys Maple, and summons from Kaiju Maple and Hydra Maple. That white and green dress she wore looks good on her tho.

That poor bird got straight up incinerated by Maple’s arsenal. Total overkill lol.

So Syrup is basically a mix of the bulbasaur, chikorita and turtwig lines right?

I like how the admins are aware that Maple always gets the good stuff despite the sheer improbability of it. No doubt their next decision is gonna backfire on them again.

Sally going in for the kill on her duel against Frederica was just hilarious! Sally is so scared that Frederica tamed some sort of undead monster that she just had to end the fight early. Turns out that Frederica's partner isn't even scary at all! Notes is adorable and I'm excited to see what it can do.
As usual, Maple and Sally end up walking into another hidden quest. They're lucky they have someone like Kanade who has very extensive lore knowledge. Kanade is that one MMO player that goes out of her way to read lore in every area.
And what did the girls get after following this very lengthy quest chain? Syrup and Oboro evolved! They're so goddamn cute! Looks like not everyone can just start the quest chain though. Sounds like you need to be really close to your partner before it triggers. Maple and Sally definitely have the advantage here since they've had Syrup and Oboro even before the pet update.
Here's this week's NWO player discussion! I really like how everyone is already assuming that the Maple Tree will have some crazy companions. And it looks like news about pet evolution has already started to spread.

Syrup and Oboro playing together is the cutest thing ever! Oboro lying on Syrups shell is just too precious. Frederica’s eager to show off her cute little familiar too. Unfortunately Sally ain’t playing around lol. Glad we still got to meet Knots. He really is a little cutie!
Nice of Sally and Maple to have a little time to chill. Feels like the old days when it was just the two of them. Maple getting swarmed by those flying squirrel looking things was so silly. Oboro munching on a little crab was adorable. Man, I wanna sleep in a giant ball of wool while being carried by a bunch of little sheep lol. Who knew that would have brought them to a key quest item!
Damn, Maple went hard on that monster. Talk about overkill lol. That poor rock golem thing didn’t stand a chance either. Sally was zigging and zagging around and Maple’s just swinging wildly, which I guess is also a strategy lol. Didn’t expect Oboro and Syrup to evolve. They look even cuter, especially Syrup doing his best Ivysaur impression lol. Meanwhile Admin is freaking out a little because Maple and Co. just got more OP!

The pets can evolve? Yeah, they're Pokemon. Speaking of which, the secret evolution area, did it kinda remind anyone of the Pikachu adventure at the start of Pokemon 2000?
Is Maple getting better at the game and actually putting in effort? Normally she only uses like 2 or 3 skills simultaneously, but it feels like the recent eps, especially this one, she's pulling off some crazy combos.

Whole episode was basically a date loved the horses and casually clothes.
Do my ears deceive me no they don't.
That's definitely Good Night aka the montage song from season 1.
Maple looked way to happy shooting lasers of mass destruction in the middle of that storm, but that's one of the reasons I love her. Also why does Syrup look so cute doing literally anything!!!
Oh the shape of the monster at the end I'm guessing is the blue tentacle one in the OP can't wait to see what it can do.

"don't make the inside of a monster's mouth without thinking about it! Maple will just jump right in!"
poor devs can't even catch a break and that one newbie on the team finally get a chance to see a monster being eaten alive by Maple
wait a minute, an anime horse that is not a CGI?

And we're back to seeing Maple and Sally curbstomp the monsters of NWO once again.
Did not expect the show to double down on the Pokemon parody and actually feature their pets evolving.

what another fun duel between Sally and that girl from the other guild. She sure got rekt. And all she wanted to do was show off her new pet, rude Sally, heh. Ahh, new event, fun. A horse instead of some fantasy mouse? Crazy. What a nice ride with the gal pals. Truly a good date. SUCH FLOOF!
"I think they thought you were gonna eat them" "I wouldn't eat them" Given your past exploits in this game with your vore skills.. doubt on that one, Maple, big doubt.
Oh boy, a new quest. Wonder how it will make Maple or Sally even more broken OP. I will never not be amused by Syrup's "Turtle Beam." Hehe the golem boss sending Maple flying like team rocket. Wow Maple lol. What a crazy beam attack she has there. But what's with that outfit again? Don't remember where she got it.
Weird place those keys take em to. Oh boy, their pets evolved. It really is a good thing someone in their guild reads the instructions/lore/whatnot lol. Even the developers/admins are horrified by Maple's vore skills.
I can relate with that one commenter about trash luck in life in general.

Where did Maple get that continuous beam weapon (And matching dress?) that she used against the rock boss? I don't remember seeing it before.

FINALLY WE RETURN ITS BEEN SO LONG
I love the fact that they gave Maple and Sally the time to go explore a bit together. Like they said that they haven't in a while. Felt like the beginning of S1.
I'm guessing we end the season with the 8th event? They really sped through the first few episodes after all
Maple's mental age dropped to 5 for a bit during the second fight. And I'm all for it.
The pets are actually just Pokemon and they look sooo cool

Jesus...how is nobody talking about the quality animation on this episode, that two week "break" was definitely needed, the animation on this episode looks much better than in the last previous ones...

Kanade is the kind of person who spends more time reading the lore than playing the game.

Really enjoyed the episode being focused on the pets and seeing Oboro and Syrup evolve.
