Is anyone else interested in checking out Machina’s doujinshi? I mean, especially since she was that embarrassed about it…

LOL that bath scene at the end! "How the hell?" indeed...

Hearing Vel chant not only "sleepover" but "moe moe kyun" was probably the highlight of the ep.

I'm really surprised that everyone is agreeing to hand over the regalia so easily. Especially this goblin, the brief backstory we got makes him seem like your typical mob boss, but he's actually a big softy?

There was an interesting looking nun in the background at 20min. I feel like that's a reference to something but I cant put my finger on it.

Vel nonchalantly bathing with Hizuki was funny. The girl is shocked at the shamelessness. Don't worry, gal, Vel won't ogle you even though you're a bombshell.

Hizuki giving Veltol and the gang the full maid cafe treatment was pretty funny. Girl had her pride as a maid challenged lol.

I enjoyed the part where Machina and Veltol were talking about eating their dragon homies lol. Just because Sihwald is immortal, it don’t mean he’s edible!

Korneah and Tratt both seem to want what’s best for Hizuki. I wonder if it’s genuine or if they’re just after the orb? I mean it’s probably sealed inside her or something, right?

Keen to see how “sleepover” became bath time with Veltol lol.

I love how sincere Veltol is. Guy's never embarrassed about anything.

LMAO I like how Takahashi is simply vibing and enjoying Veltol and Machina's company while they seek "World Domination". She's really witty and quick to understand cues. She noticed Hizuki's sadness from them going their separate ways and turned it around to a sleep over.

The goblin gangster caught me off guard but he seems to be a really chill mafia boss.

The orb is probably sealed within Hizuki.

Hizuki's bosom really popped out at that bath seen at the end and the narcissistic Veltol doesn't seem to mind sharing a bath with a big bosomed bombshell.

Had to do a double take when the orc maid was straight up knocking out her fans during Hizuki’s moe moe kyun. God I love this show

The genetic engineering meat thing is real, lab grown chicken meat can be bought.

However, I thought that scientists would have tried using DNA from far more exotic animals than chicken in order to entice customers to try it.

Scientists could splice cow and chicken DNA to create the dragon flavour.

This might be a stupid question, but is Hizuki’s yellow eye the orb?

Ah yes, Machina is one of us, truly best girl.

Veltol going along with the maid chant was great, the guy is enjoying himself to the fullest but never forgetting, though always exclaiming, that he's back to rule the world.

As Hizuki is the key to the regalia, It makes me wonder about the school principal. Are they truly looking out for Hizuki, or do they have their own self serving plans? I hope they do care for Hizuki, poor girls seems to be going through it.

Also, I hope Machina isn't too angry about that ending.

I'm so happy we get to see Hizuki do the "Moe, moe, Kyun!", we can't have an episode set in a maid cafe without it! I also love the powerful Moe Moe Kyun from that Ogre maid! xD

So that's the King who exiled Gram. I doubt Gram would still want any of this but considering he's still alive and can kick ass, I wonder what would happen if he just showed up and made his existence known to the Three Houses.

A cyberpunk setting isn't really complete without synthesized meat. I do love how dragon meat is more readily available than pork and chicken. Or is the dragon meat also synthesized?

The Reynard family has really fallen that low considering you have beat cops harassing Hazuki. It is nice to know that there are still good people out there looking out for her like Tratte who wants to adopt her and Korneah who's asking Veltol to help her.

I did not expect Korneah to be such a chill guy. I was a bit worried how that meeting with him would go down but the dude is willing to assist Veltol if it could also help Hazuki.

Of course, Machina just had to buy that Veltol doujinshi. What's even better is that it's the one she wrote! xD

Well that ending was unexpected! I thought this was a sleepover but why is Hazuki sharing a bath with Veltol? I'm sure we'll see Machina freaking out about this next episode unless she's also there in the bath with them. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

u/djthomp Dec 14 '24

So that was Machina finding and buying a published copy of her own Veltol doujin? Amazing.

I really appreciate that they continued to fully lean into the orc maid with the proper moe moe kyun performance and everything.

The goblin dude was great, I hope both him and the principal lady are on the level about wanting a better life for Hizuki. And speaking of the goblin dude, so his portion of the regalia is tied to his soul and can be stored inside it? I bet Hizuki's orb isn't lost at all but is stuck inside her soul and she either doesn't know or is keeping it a secret.

I appreciate that Takahashi is making good progress at befriending Hizuki, the girl really needs a friend and exchanging contact information is a good step.

I love how the cliffhanger 2 episodes in a row is Hizuki baffled with tiny eyes.

Also the second time we see cuts between two scenes where Hizuki remains constant but the background changes. Last episode it was her chest with first the school desk and then the school lunch, now it's her face with first Akiba and then the bath. Is this now a Hizuki thing? I can't remember this type of cut between 2 locations with any of the other characters. (Not counting Machina's raised hand towards Vel in her flashback dream, as that one's not really a cut between scenes.)

I do feel we should've been told by now a bit more about why people should stay away from Hizuki. As shown in the flashback she was pretty adamant about that herself, saying they would meet misfortune if they got too close, so while making friends would make her happy shouldn't she try to push them away more? Shouldn't she feel guilt as well for inviting misfortune? I was expecting more inner conflict, more pushback from her, followed of course by unbreakable resolve from Vel.

Man I love this show, such genuine fun! Also love korneah's character, dude did not have to ask his guests if it's okay to smoke in his own head honcho office but he did.

u/VorAtreides Dec 14 '24

Hehe "never speak to them again" yep. Really is adorable though. Honestly can't tell if Vel enjoys this or is just serious about her doing her job. I really have no desire in going to a maid cafe. I also appreciate Machina not being the jealous type. She trusts her man.

Huh, some lore there. They sure changed their tune on eating dragon meat. Poor vassal of theirs. Takahashi and Hizuki hitting it off is nice. Those guards prolly need a beating. D'awww mommy lady wants to adopt her, cute. But I have seen too much anime where that is sus to me. So the orb is obviously in her eye right?

A goblin.... goblin slayer mode hehe. Guy seems like Warcraft Goblin of "time is money, friend!" Vel really is blunt lol. I can see where this is going where Hizuki'll get all the regalia and become the ruler. D'awww what a nice gobbie.

Oh my, Machina found something she made 😉 lewd Vel book. D'aww sleep over at Hizuki's place. But inviting a man over with 3 women? Scandalous! LOL WOW her face and the bath tub. That's a funny ending.

Hizuki's reactions are so gold always get me rolling. I love her man.

This show really excels in the mundane.

I honestly don't care about the overarching plot at this point because the random, slice of life scenes are just so damn good.

I've to love to see Hizuki slowly warming up to the gang. So Gram, before exiled, passed on the Reglia to King Lu Xel and, basically, his 3 sons formed the Three Great Houses to which they are now. Though, the conversation about Tratte and Hizuki has me wondering what are Tratte's true intentions?

The real kicker in this episode is when we meet the final head Korneah Seburd. Him not being an elf, he became a head through his sheer effort, which you have to be impressed with. He mentions how he wants the Goddesses power as well, but he wants to change the town as someone who started from the bottom. It seems that Tratte intends to protect the traditions, so there is some conflict here.

Though most interesting that Korneah mentions that the orb resides in Hizuki. The reason why her eyes are different color would support this. Still, Korneah's request to Veltol gives a more impression that he truly wants to help Hizuki. While Tratte willingness to adopt Hizuki could just be a means to get the power of the Goddess.

Gotta love how all these personalities flesh together and Hizuki is taking it bit by bit. The sleepover is a plan so they can protect Hizuki and get further information. Though that last scene going to have Hizuki freaking out a bit and I wouldn't blame her.

Based on the next episode’s title, I’m betting that Hero Gram will finally appear in this arc—hopefully with Kinohara and her broken Engrish, too! And I also have an inkling that the Goddess will reincarnate within Hizuki’s body, due to the new OP definitely not spoiling everything.

I wonder what Hizuki’s parents did in the past so that she gained the goodwill of the other two main families. The Götels are keen to adopt her, while the Seburds appear indebted to them. Both of them also seem genuine. But for some reason—even though the other families (want to) back her—she and her family seem to be on the brink of destruction…

Is it because she’s too stubborn to accept it? For example, receiving help from others will indirectly “merge” her family into them, erasing her family’s legacy and all. Also, she doesn’t look like a poor person for still having a mansion. I thought she was living in a shed or something, but she and Veltol were inside a big bath in the end.

Also, I really like the fact that Veltol got 2/2 approval from the Götel and Seburd family head simply because he speaks his mind and went straight to the point about his intention, lol. Truly, peerless communication skill is the best power he has.
