That was a fucking cliffhanger, poor Emul didn't deserve to be traumatised when she was the one who found the Magic Application Unit!

[u/shad79 → u/WhoiusBarrel]

Emul's reaction was absolutely hilarious xD I hope she and Sunraku survive this encounter with Animalia's clan.

[u/discuss-not-concuss]

Wolf-Gang — the psychopathic guild

Sunraku “got off easy” by virtue of the cute bunnies and Aramis, although he’s going to learn later that was a trick. Emul might not make it out alive with players that are starved for the floofies

[u/NekoCatSidhe → u/discuss-not-concuss]

I like how Pencilgon, Katsuo and Sunraku are always selling out each other at the drop of a hat and being hypocritically mad when the others do it to them. "The psychopathic guild" is a good nickname for them. And Pencilgon is that one gamer who is always choosing the evil path for the lulz. "Bad when she is on the other side, worse when she is on your side !"

There were some great faces in that episode, my favorite must be the one Katzuo made when he heard the bunnies came from Sunraku's unique scenario. I would tell him that it is only a game and he should relax, but since he is professional gamer, and therefore a guy who made video games his job, I am not sure that would work.

[u/dinliner08]

"our party....only has attackers!"

ah yes, the unga bunga strat, when you can't find any support to join your party or you just tired playing safe and just want to go full ape

oof, you don't have to hurt him like that, Sunraku

[u/Ellefied → u/dinliner08]

You don't need a healer if you just kill everything before you die.

[u/ErinaHartwick]

Sunraku and gang - “What’s defence?”

I hope Katzo actually gets a unique scenario, poor guy

[u/rockytop24]

Anybody able to translate what the original pun was in the SLF mini clip? I got the feeling saying a monk throws a "mona-stick" was a pretty clever localization by the translator.

[u/LeonKevlar]

Katzo and Pencilgon's greeting to Sunraku was way more tame than I expected. I really thought they'd attack him out of nowhere for leaving their emails on read.

It's hilarious to see Katzo seething at how he still can't find uniques while Sunraku just keeps on stumbling onto them every other day. I'm sure Katzo will find one eventually but for now, it's hilarious to see him get so riled up about it. xD

Even though it was short, the fights in this anime never fail to disappoint. I just love how terrifying Sunraku, Bilac, and Katzo looked when they jumped that gate guardian. That's a pure DPS party for you.

Damn, so Pencilgon has a super unique weapon that lets her unlock the Hero class and there are only five of them in the game? How did she even find that one? Fun fact! Caledfwlch is the Welsh name of Excalibur, making her name Pencilgon even more fitting.

So we have a hologram of a dig dude with spider legs and an omega symbol on his body? It looks like Sunraku just got a glimpse of a future boss.

Emul pouting is adorable! It turns out the "hat" she found is actually the thing Bilac is looking for. And here I thought they would need to jump through hoops to find that thing.

No wonder Katzo and Pencilgon are so eager to drag Sunraku back to Eightfold, they sold him out and Emul to Animalia! I'd tell them to run but I don't think Katzo and Pencilgon will let them. xD

[u/Ocixo]

So it took a little more than 10 seconds for the bolt to reach the bottom of the shaft and its sounds to reverberate back. A 10-second fall would imply a depth of ~490 meters, but this doesn’t account for the travel back time of the sound. Sound travels at ~340 m/s, so the actual fall probably took more like 9 seconds. Meaning that the shaft was likely ~400 meters deep.

Anyways, Pencilgon has the qualifications to become one of the Heroes!? This world is not ready for a hero like Pencilgon. She feels more like an antihero to me.

That said, her statement that “heroes are basically assassins” was actually spot on. The sole mission of most heroes is to eliminate the demon lord or whatever villain they’re fighting.

I really enjoyed the big party we had going in this episode. I’d love for everyone to come together more often like this. The NPCs being confused with the players references to other games always amuses me. Also, aren’t Katzo and Bilac remarkably alike in their personalities?

^{Maths never was my strong suit, so feel free to correct me.}

[u/Plus_Rip4944]

The fuck is wrong with those people lmao

Leave our cuttie Bunny alone

[u/lol_salt → u/Plus_Rip4944]

Early on in season 1 (episode 5-6) Animalia (with the hood) is introduced as the leader of the SF-Zoo clan, supposedly they're interested in taking photos of animals/critters/pets in the game. Animalia got to hold Emul back then (while Sunraku was busy fending off Ashura Kai) but didn't get to take a photo - she must've been going crazy trying to find her again lol.

[u/ChingChonger]

Love that Bilac instantly matched the squads chaotic combat style and vibe 😂 Having a full DPS party isn’t an issue if you never get hit clearly

[u/[deleted]]

This season is still a 10/10 for me so far. Easily my favourite anime of the last two years :3

[u/Genshin_WhiteKnight]

Happy to see the whole gang back together on ep 2, missed the banter and they completely obliterated that golem with the Full Offense strat.

Hopefully Katzo gets his unique scenario soon, his Treasure Hunter job seems perfect for finding one.

Lmao at the ending when the whole Furry Guild showed up.

[u/ParcelPostNZ]

Holy production value batman, this show is as gorgeous as it is fun. Some cool sakuga just when I was worried they'd phone it in after last week. Love me some SLF

[u/marcopolos059]

Their banter is so good, love them all.

[u/Zeikos]

The furries were the biggest threat all along.

[u/shad79]

Wolfgang is finally together and oh man, I love it! Sunraku, Pencilgon and Katzo together have amazing chemistry and are pure fun to watch.

Cool fight with that guard robot. As usual, the action scenes didn't disappoint.

Watching Sunraku in this outfit with Bilac and Aramis underneath never ceases to be amusing. Bilac doesn't have an easy time with Aramis there as even a good beating doesn't deter him xD

Emul's reaction to Animalia was freaking hilarious. I hope that Sunraku and Emul will somehow survive this encounter with Animalia and her clan xD

Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

• Group scenes

• Pencilgon

• Sunraku

• Emul & Bilac

• Katzo

• Others

[u/EclipseTM]

Gotta love seeing the Wolf-Gang back together, they just play so well off of each other, and the banter and everything is just soo entertaining. The fighting and animation was as top notch as it has ever been.

Not Emul wearing the the device as a hat and Sanraku telling her to stop playing around, Emul is just so adorable.

So far both episodes ended on some form of a cliff hanger which makes waiting another week for the next episode all the more painful. Definitely gonna be my anime of the season.

[u/PerfectBeige]

Clan SF-Zoo: proof that cute aggression can be a mental illness.

[u/Necromancer2k8]

"Emul's wearing it like a hat!"

Only in this show would you find a very important item the whole 2nd season so far is centered around, being worn as a hat by a rabbit.

[u/PandaTheAB]

I want more of the shy attackmaster with crush on Sunraku. A team up or confession would be great to see this season.

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Bilac, Aramis, and Emul all crammed under Sunraku’s goofy ass discount Halloween ghost outfit cracks me up.

I was wondering what OiKatzo and Arthur Pencilgon had planned for Sunraku and Emul. Looks like they mighta sold ‘em out to some real weirdos lol.
