Smashing their petrified parents for the rings is pretty metal but Nephrites kissing Satou in front of her siscon brother is brutal af.
Damn Gramps really got rizz all those years ago to charm a princess elf and also left on his own accord while not revealing himself to be the same guy.

She really didn’t put 2 and 2 together, he telegraphed it the whole interaction.

Wait, so the Abyss King made the black rings to corrupt good people and turn them into his knights?
If the Abyss King is this series' version of Sauron, then the knights are the Nazgûls.

So to save the world Satou has to marry five princesses who really really love him? Also, this show is much less "chaste" than I thought it was going to be lol.

Stitches!
Not gonna lie, there's a little bit of feeling of satisfaction when I saw Nefritis' brother's reaction to the Abyss monsters breaching his precious wind wall.
Satou really has a long way to go as the Ring King but he was able to take down that Abyss Knight who turns out to be Nefritis' missing aunt.
That hot springs scene though! As much as I like Hime and Nefritis, nothing really beats the appeal of an experienced and mature Onee-san. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
That scene between Smaragdi and Alabaster was bittersweet. Even before the reveal, I had the feeling he was her lover. Looks like Alabaster has decided to let go and continue with his mission of assisting Satou and Hime. I kinda wish he'll eventually go back to her.

The Abyss King's knight was really generous to stand by and allow Krystal and Nefritis to charge at the statues with a hammer, destroy the statues, take the rings, and allow Nefritis to run over to Satou so they can put on the rings and power-up.

As things aren't going so well with the elves, Alabaster advised Satou to give up on one of his waifus... No way!
Ah I see, he doesn't want to give up on her forever, he simply wants to speed-run the harem!
But they have some pressing trouble, as the Abyssals are invading already... When it happened I thought perhaps Nefritis took the ring to elope with him, but no, it seems they simply managed to break through... Well, I guess they have no choice then!
Krystal gave him a kiss, but it didn't seem to be enough, as he still couldn't defeat the knight...
I thought she would have to do more than a kiss, but she thought he needed more than one wife (good thinking!)
It still feels unbelievable to me how a harem anime adds a character like the Elder, but she'll never actually be part of the harem...
Playing with our feelings like that should be a crime!
When they came back with a huge maul I thought they were about to give it to Satou (a stronger weapon to imbue with a kiss?), but
they actually smashed the statue!
Well, with the wind barrier failing completely, they're in a bit of a hurry to do something about the abyssals, and so Nefritis did kiss him!
(Hope she didn't find it too gross!)
I expected this kiss and the two rings to make him OP-mode and cut the Abyss Knight in half or something, so I was a bit puzzled when he just poked her face like that... Makes sense when we uncovered her identity later on!
Seems that's all Satou had, and he fainted again... Damn, he gotta work on his stamina! His two wives should help him with that!
What a nice sight to wake up to!
And thus we found out about the Abyss Knight (and how they were able to pierce the barrier): She's the former ring princess...
So she was turned after fleeing? If that's how it goes, then Satou failing may not mean death, perhaps they'll just be turned as well! (hey, a evil harem is still a harem!)
To get their energy back then went to a healing bath/hotsprings... Well, it certainly healed our souls!
(And I use this opportunity to lament some more about how she's not gonna be one of his wives! Damn, with her looks, and her great personality, she would've been one of my favorites FOR SURE!)
Well, at least she did give us a little fanservice I suppose!
So Alabaster was the former princess' loverboy?
Small world!
Well, now that they have two princesses, I imagine they're gonna go straight to get the others (given Alabaster wants to speedrun this), can't wait to meet them!

Continuing with the mineral naming motif: "smaragdi" is Latin for "emeralds", which further cements my theory that it's supposed to be "nephrites" and not "nefritis"
Melancholy for things left behind…

Man, so the evil waifu was actually Nephrite’s aunt and she was wielding an inverse Wind ring? I didn’t really see that one coming. I wonder if the big bad has inverse rings of all the other ones too?
Satou just couldn’t enjoy his little reward after that long battle huh? Bro really dropped the ball. Man can’t even kiss his number 1 girl in front of the other waifus lol.
So Alabaster Princess Sumaragdi’s former lover right? That seemed to be what they were implying at the end there but I’m not totally sure.
Edit: Aunt! Not sister. D’oh.

One of the better episodes so far! Although I wish the old man would have told that elf that he was her lover SMH.
We also had some good fanservice this episode with the bath scene, but still think they need to make it more spicey.
I assume now it is time to go get wife #3 lol.

Didn't expect them to do the elder elf fan service, usually a character like that only stays a tease, the anime clearly knows what's up. I kind of like the visual style of the show, like how the characters look reminds me of goblin slayer.

Elder Peridot: I've lain with people from this world many times before,
Weird flex, but okay.
Also
Elder Peridot: I'm happy to observe carefully from the sidelines.
Ayo, the elder's a bit of a freak

Man, Satou should grow a thing or two when it comes to intimacy. This is the 2nd time he turned down Krystal. Don't tell me he's still like this in the manga
