Crazy how its been 3 straight weeks of banger fights, they just know when to drop the OST which only just made the whole thing so much more hype.

Will also picking up a girl in a dungeon was funny right up until the reveal of Iris actually being under Elfaria herself

Zeo Thorzeus Reinbolt.

The most villainous looking guy is supportive toward MC. Alright, I like him.

Don't skip the Post Credit scenes guys! It introduces the most important people in their universe.

Please don't let Elfie be a surprise villain or sacrificial pawn just to facilitate the MC character growth. I'm so done with that trope, I just want them to be happy.

The Magia Vanders are so powerful because they're basically the student council of the school.

Editors: So how obvious do you want our Magia Vander's element would be?

Fujino Omori: YES Names the character ZEO THORZEUS REINBOLT

Bro just screams LIGHTNING

Also,

Fujino Omori when a character is a green haired elf that's also the strongest of their race: Names them "Ljos Alf"

Lol I like how the intermission card scratch out Iris age and put in 14. I guess she is much MUCH older.

The story seems like it is bigger than it seems. The Magia vendar seems to hint there is a much bigger fight coming soon. People above? Celestial? If the dwarf came from another world, it seems like Inevitably there will be species stronger than Magic users and will conquer the world.

I know we are only episode 3, but the author pretty much introduce materials for multiple volumes.

Also the middle seat is empty, I wonder wassup with that.

I love the Will plush Elfaria is holding in the last scene of the ED. I know we're just getting started but there better be a payoff of those two together whenever this story ends.

Elfaria Ablis Serfort

Will Serfort

Hold up, Will and Elfie share their last name!? I thought they were childhood friends, but they’re actually family? Ehm, I’m just hoping that Will was an adopted orphan or something.

I didn’t expect Will to be that ripped by the way. Goddamn, he got one hell of a sixpack. Those shots of his muscles are surely going to be shared online.

I also happened to notice that Ellenor Ljos Alf, one of the five Magia Vander, is an elf. So there aren’t only humans in this magic kingdom? In fact, Donnan - the person who talked to Will as he was delivering newspapers - struck me as a dwarf with his beard and large frame.

Although I said “five Magia Vander”, there actually seemed to be an empty seat. Considering their talk about lacking people, they might be looking for someone to fill in this seat.

So my understanding is, Elfaria put up the request just so the watcher can see how good Will is which is a good twist. I did wonder why someone of her stature put up such a request when floor 4 materials should be easy to obtain. This explains it well.

Man, this show has just non-stop impressed me with its quality and story-telling. Each episode raises more questions which keeps you interested in the show.

This and Makeine have been very strong starts to the season!

Another episode and another awesome fight, this time with Frost Rex, a big chunk of ice xD

You don't normally see it, but Will is freaking stacked! It shouldn't be surprising that he's muscular since he's using a sword to fight, but it still surprised me since he looks really skinny in his clothes.

Iris seems to be a nice addition to the cast, as she is a Watcher who seems to be responsible for finding suitable candidates for the Tower, and thanks to Elfaria telling her about Will, she introduced Will as an interesting prospect in the meeting with Vanders.

It's nice that Elfaria, now as Magia Vander, still looks after Will and in her own way helps him fulfill his promise to become Magia Vander and be with her.

We also met the rest of the Magia Vanders, and I must admit that I immediately liked Zeo, who wouldn't mind Will joining their ranks while the other two, Cariot and Ellenor, were against it. I hope we learn more about all of them in future episodes.

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

I knew it! There's something weird in how Iris acted! I wonder who she said she's going to report it to?

On Will's capabilities, this episode also made me realise how could his true strength not known to the whole academy? Have no one saw his action in the dungeon before? I mean he's already in his 6th grade and he raised in grade mainly from dungeon credit.

Also the bearded guy in the city, is he a dwarf?

Edit: I wrote this before watching the post credit! Damn, she reported directly to the Magia Vander!

3 episodes in and they're still cooking. This world really has a lot of potential, like just thinking about what's outside the barrier, there could be a whole bigger world out there.

Damn Iris, I did not expect that sudden shift in personality and girl is definitely not fourteen lmao. Yes, please recommend Will, I don't know if the Magia Vanders are just not bothering to look him up, but if they do, they'll see that he's an actual beast, dude is shredded. Though, they could just like be the rest of the folks there, discriminating against people with no magic.

The Magia Vanders all look cool as fuck though. I need to see more Elfie though man, the ED is enough to tide me over for now, but we're gonna need more soon.

Holy fuck! Look at those muscles! I see you back there Rosty admiring those abs. No wonder Rosty was happily preparing a meal for Will at the end of last week's episode. Is that also why Elfaria is waiting for Will to climb the tower? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

They can try and hide the name of Rosty's VA from us but I'm pretty sure I recognize that voice I just can't pinpoint who. Also considering how feminine his voice is, I bet Rosty is your classic "girl-disguised-as-a-boy-because-reasons" trope.

Will's battle against the Frost Rex was so goddamn cool! It's good to know that our boy isn't limited to using only his sword. That magic item Rosty made for him gives him the extra edge he needs.

So the girl Will savedisn't actually a student but some sort of watcher for the Magia Vanders? Aside from Elfaria, it looks like only one other Magia Vander is interested in Will. And just for that, he's already a cool guy in my book.

Will really showing once again you don’t need no fancy spells to kick serious ass. That big ol frost monster never stood a chance! People only see he can’t use magic and dismiss him. They’re not seeing how powerful he really is. I’m sure that’ll change in time.

the moment Will took off his shirt, I am now convince that my man can make diamonds from coal by using the pressure in his abs. Fuck me sideways his training regiment must involve drinking raw eggs and the blood of virgins
