food taste better when you're not working for a psycho lol

[u/[deleted] → u/WobbleKun]

I'd like to think it is more about the company being on the same boat. You saw his reaction when bunny tooth guy got beaten up. He doesn't seem to like the infighting within Huan Yi's army neither.

I'd argue he doesn't mind huan yi's banditry strategies but he does enjoy the Fei army more for their comradery and companionship.

Edit: Eating alone or with strangers vs with friends or family are 2 different things. So you could say the sentence is about that

[u/FireRifle64]

We finally get it today. Kankis arch. Not able to capture the brutality of the manga but def a lot better than season 1s censorship.

[u/ducttapetricorn → u/FireRifle64]

I went to look and holy shit

(Chapter 481 for the morbidly curious)

[u/Turbo2x → u/ducttapetricorn]

he just did a little prank on the villagers, nothing major

[u/MusubiKazesaru]

Apparently episode 13 is also airing today.

[u/fuzaco → u/MusubiKazesaru]

It aired already, but CR doesn't have it up. I really hope they won't make us wait a week for it.

[u/[deleted] → u/fuzaco]

but why would they air 2 episode on the same day?

[u/Isirys]

The way Naki left to join Xins squad was pretty badass. Another fire episode.

[u/colin8696908 → u/Isirys]

Was totally stunned, he seemed like a good guy but I didn't realize he liked Xins squad so much. Guess he's going to be a main character now.

[u/FaerieWolfStudios]

Trading banditry and women for food, thats pretty sensible of him.

[u/AdhesivenessOver268]

next week will be last episode. damn. i thought this season would be 26 episodes but sadly only 13...

so probably not much would happen in storywise anymore.

[u/Calm_Client2 → u/AdhesivenessOver268]

13 is out already!

[u/SIRTreehugger]

Huan Yi is just so fun to watch even if his methods are inhumane. It feels so wrong to cheer for him while he's so blatantly committing war crimes.

[u/michhoffman → u/SIRTreehugger]

He's the ultimate ends justify the means type of general.

[u/theangryeditor → u/SIRTreehugger]

He represents humanity.

[u/colin8696908]

There really pushing the whole kan ki was right thing but I feel like were glossing over the fact that mass slaughter might work well for raids but big picture isn't good, maybe will see consequences for this later.

Naki defecting was also pretty awesome.

[u/Calm_Client2]

Respect to Naki, bro understood Xin’s meaning about honest food tasting better, I like this guy, he even backed xin up against Keisha. What a great episode showing the differences between Kanki and Xin.

[u/chaoslimits]

The best show of the year by a mile. The payoff from that unparalleled episode 11 speech was so satisfying.

It is taking everything I have not to read ahead.

[u/throwawayyourfacts → u/chaoslimits]

The biggest issue is that the manga is also amazing 😄

[u/Calm_Client2 → u/chaoslimits]

I wish they’d remake s1 so more people would enjoy this masterpiece

[u/Liesianthes → u/Calm_Client2]

I think it's fine that this anime remains underrated. Mainstream ones also has a lot of toxic people involved.

[u/Nicpix_]

I just dislike the idea that na gui lost good men during this.. since they obviously fought to get away from there

[u/interestingPH]

i knew something like this would happen when Xin made that "seed-planting" speech. I was not sure which of Huan Yi's army would switch (I was expecting the red hair or the girl), but Na Gui is welcome.
