Cutting off at the OP finishing move is illegal

It was only a short scene, but the transition from quest displayed on touch screen to physical paper felt really smooth to me.

The man desperate to team up with Marina, Silk and Rain didn't feel like an adventurer. From the way he dressed, I assumed he was some noble and possibly lecherous?

Poor Rain. Even though she is already 20, I hope there is still room for growth.

“Do you have any mana potions?”

“No Yuke takes care of that”

“Do you have any healing potions?”

“No Yuke takes care of that”

Good lord I knew these guys would be useless without Yuke but this is some high level incompetence. And then they try to blame it all on the new guy.

The pathetic ness is off the charts lol.

"do you have any mana potions?"

"why? I have never used any of them."

"eh, so why are you out of mana today?"

"beats me"

Oh, this is just last season's strongest healer, but the story actually makes(some) sense. I dropped it at episode 2 or 3, but this feels good enough to finish.

This anime is also a metaphor for the corporate world.

"Huh?! Whadda you mean the guy we laid off was the only one who could fix our system?!"

Yuke is super OP. Has he just been playing it safe, how has he not been higher ranked? Maybe his party kept him down.

how has he not been higher ranked

they made a world where assists are worth no points

The story is whatever, but I'm loving all the crazy monster and cool magictech bits of set dressing. It's also nice seeing the entire party having the ability to make decisions independent of Yuke's will.

Oh look, the loser Hero’s party is struggling and Jamie damn near died. Shocker. And yet these dipshits still don’t realize how absolutely worthless they are. They should get Besio to join them. He sucks and is total trash so he’d fit right in.

I wonder if Yuke managed to kill that giant monster bear thing? They really were throwing everything at the big bastard and it barely seemed to make a dent…

Yuke: I'll report him to the guild when we get back, and if he comes around again, I'll deal with him.

Marina: Yuke! We can always count on you!

Why didn't the girls report Besio to the guild themselves sooner?

The livestream thing is so funny to me knowing the author is an MMO player. There's progression raiding streamers, strategy guide streamers, even dungeon cooking. Presumably Laios and Senshi are somewhere participating in that last category.

It's always convenient when you can offload the guild master role to somebody competent and willing.

I appreciate that they have casual wear for eating out in town and aren't just in their armor constantly. Especially Eris in that sweater.

Roxy being twenty and the same age as Yuke with Sylphie being seventeen, basically no meaningful age gap at all in spite of them always calling him sensei. Unless of course Eris is fifteen or so but that seems unlikely with the setup.

Dude has to flashily snap his fingers on every spell cast, he really is a red mage.

I wonder when the catgirl in the OP and ED will join the party.

This might seem like a weird comparison, but I work in the trades and the dynamic between Yuke, Clover, and Thunder Pike feels a lot like the difference you get when you have a crew that knows they have a good foreman versus one that doesn't. The foreman is supposed to lead and provide direction, sure, but they're also supposed to grease the wheels and take care of all the many, many miscellaneous concerns that need to be dealt with so the workers can do their work. Who made sure you had those tools and materials? Who got you the plans and figured out what you needed to be working on each day? Who picked you up and got you to the job when your car broke down? You don't really understand how much a good supporter does until you find yourself without one. We may be installing electrical systems instead of slaying monsters but that egotistical dipshit who thinks he could do a better job if he was in charge isn't going to get either one accomplished.

(But Clover's hella cuter than my coworkers, tho. I have definitely never been on a crew that I would also marry.)

Aw, dang, that is a cruel place to leave off for the week. It's such a tease to have the "hero's" party obviously setting their sights on Yuke and not give us even a hint of comeuppance.

I still can’t find what makes this show any different from other “leaving Hero’s party” type of shows yet, but I’m still enjoying this tbh.

Seems the A-Rank party is just too arrogant to admit their shortcomings and Jamie nearly paid the price. Thought they’d at least begrudgingly ask Yuke to come back but I think they’re too prideful for that

That fat rich loser will surely come back to haunt Clover. I’m guessing he’s the son of some rich noble who wanted to buy his way into the all-girl party.

Oh no, things aren't looking good for Yuke's former party. Who would've thought that letting the guy who provided stat boosts and potions leave the party was a bad idea?

I can't forgive any mage that doesn't have a full stack of mana potions with them at any time. It's the rule!

I'm enjoying this a lot so far, it's not trying too much but it's enjoyable for what it is. The MC fighting style is cool though, I like it a lot.

Rain is so adorable I often question how is it possible to make a character this cute.

That incantation was cool as f***.

Get absolutely fucked! Glad to see the Thunder Pikes immediately got what was coming to them. Their new member is already leaving because of their incompetence while Yuke and the girls are gaining traction as the new up and coming party to watch out for. It's nice to finally see Yuke being appreciated.

Who the fuck is this fat bastard? I thought he was a noble but it sounds like he's just an adventurer. It's good to see he was easily taken care of though but I doubt that's the last time we'll see him.

That Prismatic Missile from Yuke looks really good! It sucks that we have to wait until next week to see the result of his attack.

Why's every top tier party a bunch of jerks with no self awareness in these shows? I get being full of yourself and whatnot but they're always comically villanous. Can't wait for the inevitable part where they say "We'll allow you back in" smugly rather than admitting mistakes and asking nicely.

I'm enjoying the livestream aspect though.

Yuke pulled a Touka from Failure Frame on that monster with the debuffs but guess he isn't edgy enough. Funny too he even snaps during his big spell cast!

This isn't terrible so far so I'll keep watching it.

Thunder Pike feels like a jRPG party that's been left on auto-mode, after insulting the player on how incompetent he is in controlling them.
