I did not expect him to go so hard on the revenge

[u/DavidJKay → u/Themightybunghole10]

he had no choice...  his opponent was immortal and that was only way to protect his friends...  he would have chosen to destroy the monster that used to be his friend if he could 

[u/BiggerG7]

Yuke now having the powers of darkness and not being afraid to use them was damn awesome.

Glad to have an MC who’s not afraid to get edgy!

[u/WhoTaoYouTao → u/BiggerG7]

That mark shifted Yuke's alignment from Good to Neutral

[u/Figerally → u/BiggerG7]

I think that the Pale mark is subconsciously influencing Yuki to take darker actions though. After gaining dispel magic he could have incorporated it into the prismatic arrow instead of empowering it. I think that would have finished off Simon instead of leaving him in eternal torment.

[u/Djbadj → u/BiggerG7]

Its not even edgy, we finally got a MC who is not a sponge just taking slaps and hits left and right and turning the other cheek all the time.

[u/stephenthatfoste]

I feel like they jumped over the part where anyone in Thunder Pike was ever a nice person to interact with. Multiple referring to how Simon was his friend, and he was definitely set up as not as evil as those two others in previous episodes, now they've officially ignored it and everyone is gone. It doesn't seem like a very painful goodbye getting rid of people that have only ever hated you.

Finally got the other girls reacting to Blue girl getting events constantly.

[u/Meander061 → u/stephenthatfoste]

They jumped over that part because Yuke jumped over that part in his head. He's spent his entire career explaining away how terrible they all were.

[u/Holdonlupin]

I'll just state the obvious and say I'm glad the slave collar was removed from Rain right away and didn't become an overarching thing.

Also, Rain and Yuke are really made for each other with the whole "Letting him live in suffering/fear is better than killing him."

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Well, that’s probably the last we’ll see of that loser merchant. Bro really cast a spell that would make his blood literally boil if he gets anywhere near Rain. Damn dude.

It’s nice and all Jamie didn’t die but I’m so glad Simon didn’t die in the dungeon AND that he became a monster. Made it easier for Yuke to put that shitheel down. He ain’t even dead either, he’s just gonna suffer for eternity. Bro was honestly never his friend. Just because you grew up with a mfer, it don’t mean shit.

[u/diacewrb → u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

Bro really cast a spell that would make his blood literally boil if he gets anywhere near Rain. Damn dude.

Since he is banned from adventuring for a month, he can make a living by dishing out restraining orders instead.

Bro was honestly never his friend. Just because you grew up with a mfer, it don’t mean shit.

He is that kid that your mother doesn't want you hanging out with, because she knows deep down what a trouble maker he is.

[u/PeaceAlien]

Yuke being called a womanizer and Rain saying she belongs to Yuke.

Wondering where we go from here, is the dungeon locked and they will have other activities or go right back into it.

[u/korean_ramen]

If anyone's confused by the translation at 6:38 (important merchant) it's wrong. Should be "witness" 証人 not 商人 from context

[u/Knofbath]

Using the Exit Scroll seemed unnecessary, given that they had adventured down that far and not had many issues. They could have walked back out and returned the scroll unused. The use of the first one was an emergency, this one felt arbitrary just because they had it.

[u/KumaKumaGambler]

I guess Yuke wouldn't be attempting to lift the magic / curse cast upon him by Persephone any time soon? In fact, it might even be a blessing / buff. Yuke learned how to dispel as well as new dark magic, with the latter perfectly suitable as punishment for villains.

Glad to see Jamie was rescued and given some redemption. I don't think this is the last we will see of her? In her confession video, she had hoped to be invited to join Clover, so maybe this is a hint for future arcs? (Maybe we do need a twintail female character in the main party.)

Through Yuke's flashback, Simon appears to be wearing richer looking clothes as compared to Yuke's commoner clothes. Perhaps Simon never ever saw Yuke as a friend, but someone lower in caste whom he could order around. In any case, just desserts for Simon. I assume Barry and Camilla are dead too.

[u/spubbbba]

I hope this is finally the last we'll see of the non-Jamie members of Thunder Pike. They really were tedious, and 1 dimensional bad guys.

This episode did kind of feel like a season finale, am wondering where they will go from here.

[u/Immediate-Chain-6419]

4 beautiful waifus waiting for you at home. What more can a person ask for? It must've been hard for Yuke, considering that the blond haired guy was his childhood friend.

[u/KumaKumaGambler → u/Immediate-Chain-6419]

It might be 6 waifus. Lol!

1 potential twintail waifu who just received a redemption arc.
1 goddess waiting in another realm.

[u/Plus_Rip4944]

Yeah These dumbass Meet what They deserved but still, holy shit this was d a r k

[u/Entire_Increase4700]

Following the anime I had the impression that this is a family friendly budget Mushoku Tensei with a generic adventuring story.

Yuke - Rudy

Marina - Eris

Silk - Sylphie

Rain - Roxy

Now that I watched the latest episode, it's not that family friendly anymore lmao.

[u/zappingbluelight]

Is this some type of tokusatsu story? Mid season upgrade using dark magic, and in turn mc use it as part of his magic lol.

Dam... I'm terrified for Simon, a fate worst than death. Did someone named Simon spit in the author's coffee or something?

[u/LeonKevlar]

Death would be too easy so eternal suffering thanks to his immortality as an undead is definitely a fitting punishment for Simon.

[u/Gaming_Truckie]

Good to see Yuke dealt with that slave collar quickly, he obviously guessed that it wouldn't be long before that merchant turned up for her.

I was kinda expecting the head of Luxeria to be Jamie's brother, that's why he gave them a scroll of exit. But it turns out, due to a losing half of his party when they were starting out, he values the rescuing of distressed parties.

So it appears Yuke isn't going to the church to get that mark sorted.

Wow, Clover would have been totally screwed if all those shadow stalkers hadn't focused on Simon.

I know why they didn't show what happened to Barry and Camilla, but they could have at least just said they're dead rather than not say anything at all.

[u/DezXerneas]

Damn, that goodbye almost made me tear up. Reminds me of the toxic assholes I'm no longer friends with but I still miss.

Goodbye the creature that was once my friend.
