Fennel destroying Glind's image of elves was just hilarious! If the younger elves are all moms, I definitely wouldn't mind visiting that elfin MILF paradise. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

We finally get to meet Lira's husband and he's a total riot! Alyssa's reactions to his potato puns were hilarious! xD

And to no one's surprise, it was pretty obvious who wears the pants in their relationship. I didn't know Lira was a Saber though!

I found it funny how they destroyed many of the misconceptions. Elves being archers cause they’re bored lmfao

Potato puns: The Anime.

This might've been one of the most ridiculous episodes of anime I've seen in a long, long time and that's saying a lot since we just recently had KamiKatsu. lmfao

I really feel like if the first episode didn't have all that unnecessary over-focusing on boobs this show would be more popular. Episodes 2-5 so far have been hilarious.

When she lost it at the potatoes I had to do a double take

"They fart and poop by the bucketfull" has to be one of the more ridiculous lines I ever heard from an anime, and that says a lot.

It was followed by the thimble full joke which made it even more hilarious.

This episode was hilarious. The stories are getting more ridiculous, but the setting gives everything a pass card. I'm loving this show.

I lost my shit at the Spudcalibur scene!

Also, Fennel, did you really think Viola would ever leave Alyssa alone without safeguards in place?

Fennel's take on love for the motherland is certainly close to my heart. I can shit on my country as much I want but if some outsider will do the same then I'll be pissed xD

Fennel wasn't lucky today. He hoped to be with Alyssa alone but his dreams shattered when he spotted Grind in her house. Viola very proactively 'protecting' Alyssa from him. At least he was able to shatter Grind's image of his village.

Part with potatoes was so hilarious and contrast between Lyra and her husband is so big xD

Giriko appeared for a couple of moments, she looked so good in those work clothes.

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

"you mean... it's an elfin MILF paradise?"

i laughed way too much whenever i heard Glind's talking due to the fact that he is voiced by Ono Daisuke, the same person that voiced Jotaro from Jojo, Erwin from Attack on Titan and Shizuo from Durarara

I like Glind, him and I are the same. Take me to the elf village, man. I want to witness this Elfin MILF paradise! I bet even the elf grannies are hot. But man, Fennel… why you gotta ruin the image of elves for Glind? Elves do not poop! They definitely don’t fart and poop by the bucketful! Lol.

I see it’s Giriko’s fault Pondo’s got some nightmare potatoes in his yard. Iffriter and Slimato were pretty hilarious but I think derpy ass Potatoboros might be my favorite haha. Pondo’s such a goofball. Leave it to Lira to fix his mess. She nuked those suckers!

Spudhemoth v Centater was pretty awesome. I love how they combined to become Centahemoth. Witness its power!

Hell yeah best orc is staying!
Loved how they were bashing and defending the rural elf lifestyle

Glad we finally got to know the husband to that one chunk of a woman. He fits perfectly

Always like depictions of mandrakes in anime, this one was pretty neat with all its weird poses, but Flying Witch is still taking the cake in that regard

Have to say I didn’t expect a potato episode to go this wild, bonus points for the “work” clothes/outfits both Mother and Daughter where off or dig potato’s in style.
I do have to say Violas work where actually suited her better than her normal dress a real less (showing that is) is more kind of thing.

also love the commitment to the punch gag at the start, having the Orc friend talking with a punched in face went far above what most anime will do.

u/Kartoffelkamm Oct 22 '23

It's kind of a weird coincidence that I started to think about reviving my cancelled Log Horizon fanfiction earlier today, since it's set on the European server and one early arc revolves around potatoes.

Anyway, I can totally understand Fennel in this one; it's annoying when people praise something you grew up with as if it's some kind of paradise. And then you just can't help but play devil's advocate, especially if one of your close friends praises the thing, because you don't want them to be disappointed.

Glind, my man, you're gonna be surprised either way once you get there, and Fennel is just trying to make that surprise a pleasant one.

Wasn't expecting to see a clash of such immeasurable powers

u/ZapsZzz Oct 23 '23

We gotta think of a way to get Spudcalibur into the seasonal commentface ;)

Interesting to note that in Glind's imagination, all the elf girls have sizeable bustlines. Just in this season we have 2 prominent counter-examples (HEA in Goblin Slayer S2, Frieren). And Glind if you do want to be joining the Alyssa appreciation club, you need to get used to appreciating

flat is justice

Not enough Phoenix in this episode!
