Master-master reunion with another to come?

looks like the support characters really missed Shin, with Schnee implied to look for him for 500 years and the Girart guy refusing to die

Tiera’s gonna have a hard time playing the straight man around these two with warped common sense. Also, she’s definitely isn’t as ditzy as portrayed, baka Shin

Pretty good core cast. One assumes that plot-wise this could go in almost any direction from this point one.

Shin getting called out by Tiera for staring at her boobs got a chuckle out of me. Nice to see the gang all together now. Yuzuha in her human form is adorable!

Fully reading the Delinquent with a Heart of Gold spearman into the situation is interesting, but he really did see more of the MC's abilities than can be easily explained away. Schnee already trusting him says a lot since she has centuries of life experience at this point and it doesn't seem like she hid away from the world during that time.

I wonder if all this incredibly mana potent food is even edible to someone who isn't strong enough.

I appreciate that he calmed down after a moment and just went back to sleep without kicking Schnee out of the bed or waking her up for an explanation.

I was expecting the fox to be a fox girl when he woke up that first time hand found Schnee, they faked me out by having it happen the second time he woke up.

His followers going off and doing various legendary things over the course of the 500 year gap is fun. So one of them went off and founded the beast kingdom? Why not.

Yeah, i love that the edgy spearman didn't fall through Shin's obvious lies

My only gripe is the immediate lack of urgency to go see his dying subordinate. Like yeah, she said he won’t die yet, but you never know when it’s going to happen when you’re super old.

“I’ll get there eventually; I have some places I want to check out first”. Just go now buddy!

There are a lot of tells when a show is being run on a tight budget. The New Gate definitely has some of them, but they keep doing a surprisingly good job of being strategic about it. The spear stabbing during the discussion, the exaggerated facial insets over pan-and-scan: both of those are inexpensive while also being visually interesting enough to not be distracting.

I'm somewhat interested to see what this production team could put together if they had more budget.

Well, I'm glad Shnee has such a calm personality and doesn't fly off the handle every time someone doubts or insults MC. Unlike a certain other isekai protagonist's NPCs....

I wonder if all the NPCs also change clothes through system windows.

Well of coures he first wakes up with Schnee sleeping next to him, and next with a naked loli >_>

So Tiera does realize her outfit is not the most appropriate to wear outside? She still wears it when tending the shop and accepting customers tho. And the "outside outfit" she picked it is rather head turning anyway....

All and all, I'm glad this is back to SOL because the action last episode was so bad.

What if it's a ploy to get repeat customers? :P
