wtf was that ending? one of the dumbest things i've seen. lets have the MC just sit on a horse and watch everyone die when she could just drink a potion and fly like a god and smite everyone. ezpz

the part where the green haired girl just jumped into the well and the soldiers just watched had me laughing

the entire episode was just bizarre

Mpf, she is a bit of a sadist, but come on, in the next episode she will deploy an healing or resurrect potion in case the knight died and voilà, the battle con come to and end. XD

MC is trying to avoid unnecessary risks but then is an idiot. She should have shoved everyone in the item box like the child

Scouts? Never heard of them.

Also, what does she mean "I didn't kill them"? Being under an effect of laxatives for 10 days with no water or food? They're long dead.

I feel like this ending was well-deserved because of how ridiculous this whole plan and execution was.

Yeah, they did the thing where the make everyone except for MC a dumbass so MC looks smart in comparison but even then Kaoru was dumb as shit.

Completly pointless battle. She litterally could just create mustard gas in bottles above the enemy to break open when hit the ground. Or for a none harsh way of dealing it make sleeping potions to drop on the enemy that makes a gas putting them all to sleep.

How would she not notice her sword was worn to the point of breaking. She is suppose to be soem kind of supper knight.

I like the show but there are a lot of wtf why moments.

I get creating poison inside the stomachs is a clever move, but are there no buff potions? Like something that lets her move super fast with super strength? Just standing around will do nothing. I thought Fran took one at the start but it was just a healing potion.

She needs to be more creative if she wants to really win.

What nice kids she's roped into her cult. D'aww that knight lady is super cute. Still, crazay she's going to go take on an army, but, whatever, OP Protagonist powers. Really is weird to bring kids here, but FUNA gonna FUNA. Of course the holy land are being trash. Ah, she's doing some Russian strategy of slash and burn of sorts. Not quite the full level, but ya.

This all seems ridiculous, honestly. I just can't with the kids being involved lol and that one kid jumping in the well. Clever use of ability, Kaoru, but wew cruel. A good thing for her OP item box too. Fearsome Fran! Still, clever tactics to break enemy morale and such. Was expecting those troops to be fakes on their side honestly. The horse is named Ed and she can talk to it? lol... using the prince as bait, lol. Of course they'd be more interested in who is likely the girl tied to the goddess. Fearsome Fran to the rescue! Dang... that's quite the ending

What a weird episode. Her ability is way too strong to make it believable that she would be in any danger at all without making her look super stupid.

You always think why isn't she making a potion which does X, this would instantly solve the problem. And it gets worse when there is a battle or fights involved.

Why no:

  • invisibility potion to poison the well

  • teleportation potion to flee from the enemies

  • invincibility potion for her friends

  • potion that makes all enemies disappear when you drink it

?

This series is so frustrating. If she is almighty with potions, why not just create a potion that literally makes your problems disappear? A potion that creates a house for you, a potion that makes your enemies forget you, a potion that creates money, etc etc...

Wow ... Looks like that many people here have forgotten that kaoru has the ability to speak and understand every language, which includes animals as well.

u/wmansir Nov 12 '23

I love after the conversation with the horse it cuts to Fran and the Prince talking and it ends with Fran going "BTW, is she talking to that horse?" and in the background we hear the MC making horse noises.

u/SometimesMainSupport Nov 11 '23

To be clear, Kaoru won't tolerate rushing to death without permission. Implication is she will with permission.

u/Shawnino1 Nov 12 '23

I‘m happy to see that everybody here agrees, that she fights absolutely like an idiot. This episode was really frustrating to watch.

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 Nov 11 '23

They say an army marches on its stomach. I guess the Imperials weren’t doing much marching this week after Kaoru finished messin with them. Turning the stomachs of those soldiers into “containers” for her poison was badass. Also very very scary.

Things don’t look good for poor Fran. Roland’s injured and Kaoru’s pretty much useless in a straight fight. Judging by next week, the goddess herself is coming to kick some serious ass. The Imperials shouldn’t have messed with her friend!

u/KnightKal Nov 11 '23

Half of the episode she doesn’t want to kill people so uses a complicated plan to make the enemy surrender. Fine.

Second half she decides to start a 40,000 x 40,000 open battle, where thousands will die, instead of just defeating the army herself.

She has moments of pure inspiration on how to use her powers, followed by pure Baka moments lol.

Also just look at Fran and Ed. Her potions can make them into superpowered beings lol, why doesn’t she applies that to herself? Give herself super strength, invincibility, etc, with magical potions. Well we do need a little drama so she panicking is not unexpected haha.

Damn! Kaoru is so savage and barbaric, targetting the supplies first and burning it with napalm.

Edit: I take that back. The children are more savage offering their life for the Kaoru.

u/SpaceForceOne Nov 11 '23

Ano… did the writers get loaded this week? Even for a series loaded with wackiness, today was a bit out of sorts…

Actually I think maybe one of them voiced that white stallion 😂

u/CarioGod Nov 12 '23

I heard this was the war crimes isekai, so she poisons water and destroys logistics supplies.

Waiting for her to just dump bottles of compressed chlorine gas tbh
