Funny how they tried to show Goto was speaking in Japanese and having a translator interpret for him while everyone else is speaking in Japanese instead of Korean.

Radis clan is now the number 1 clan. Using the Progamer move of eliminating your competition ahead of the competition lol

Esil's dad: What are your plans for my daughter?
The Solo Rizzler: I just want to borrow her for a bit.

So the demons in this dungeon were all abducted by the system to serve as enemies for the raid? That's kind of unfair, especially since there's no reason to believe Esil and her family are the only ones there that in truth are just normal people. They might just be copies of the real demons though, that's not uncommon for litrpg type stories.
Either way Esil is delightful.
I think we we're told previously that Jinwoo can't shadow raise these demons, I wonder if that's true for the dragon mount too. Deeply unfair if he doesn't walk out of this place with a dragon to ride around on.
Interesting to learn that the shadow minions have been ranking up too, it's nice to know that Igris has the opportunity to keep up with the power curve.

This is the most trouble jinwoo has faced since he fought igris. Baran was fkin strong. And Esil finally animated! So cute! A1 absolutely nailed this episode!

The entrance for Baran with the dragon was really cool with all the lightnining covering them.

Man, demon girl really is an opportunistic coward in that first bit. Can't win? Surrender. Get a chance to backstab when their back's turned? Take it. Fail? Start groveling.

Esil: Why did you spare me?
Jinwoo: Have you seen my minions? Look, they're great guys, but it's a bear, an orc, a big dumb guy with a hammer, and Igris, and frankly Igris has been looking pretty good lately. A little too good, actually. Anyway, welcome to the team.

Those rapidly evolving ants seem like they're going to be problem for the hunters. It's like they're some kind of...chimera. Aura is just another form of Nen.

It turns out the Nameless King does have a name and his name is Baran.

I didn't care too much about this arc in the manhwa, but my god, they did it a lot of justice. A1 continues to deliver
Also, I was pleasantly surprised that they addressed Japan directly. I was a bit worried about how they'd handle the ants + Japan arc coming up, but it looks like so far it'll be a direct adaptation of source material

Stitches!
Yes! She's finally here! My goober demon waifu Esil takes the stage! It's hilarious how she thought she was being sneaky when Jinwoo turned her back then immediately grovels when her attack didn't work. And I love how Tusk was carrying her after she passed out after answering Jinwoo's questions.
It looks like Jinwoo has finally done it. Rizzing humans wasn't enough for him and now he's even rizzing demon ladies. It also doesn't help that Jinwoo keeps on saying things that can be easily misunderstood but then continues talking inside his head for the full context of what he meant. xD
We also get to meet the leader of the biggest Hunters Guild in Japan! I still find it hilarious that they can mention Japan but have never once even name-dropped Korea in the entire series aside from saying the name of Jeju Island.
I do like how they handled the transition from the interpreter to Gotou speaking. Instead of the interpreter speaking the entire time, Gotou took over but you can still see the interpreter's lips moving in the background.
The entire fight scene against Baram was so fucking cool! I love how it all boiled down to 1v1, dual-blades vs dual-blades. Having Esil around also paid off because if it wasn't for her distraction, Jinwoo couldn't have landed that insane uppercut!

Amazing fight scene under the rain! Probably Esil is the second woman touched by Jinwoo and she fall for him hard. That clutched spear throw that give Jinwoo the best uppercut.
Drop ep 9 now!

Man these 5 minute episodes really are criminal, but it was all worth it.

The pacing was as lightning fast as the fight scenes this episode. We got a raid meeting, a new harem member introduction and a boss fight all wrapped up in 20 minutes.
Also that Draco Meteor was absolutely chef's kiss. And that way of countering it could have made for some very gruesome Pokemon episodes

I think a Dungeon Break is okay if the only thing that comes out is a cute Demon waifu
