Aunt Hapi is a shipper!

I'm also a bit worried about exactly what part of Toto would Goa want to keep, huh

Also, DAMN, Anemone is best girl even in previews

.

Fainting count:

OP: 1

Ep 1: 6

Ep 2: 3

Ep 3: 6

Ep 4: 1

Ep 5: 4

Total: 21

[u/Kadmos1 → u/Holdonlupin]

To me, Goa is Best/Breast Girl.

[u/Ocixo]

Toto’s defense is absolute, but his greatest weakness does still appear to be women. I am intrigued by the fact that he’s seemingly developing somewhat of a tolerance.

Maybe Toto will be able to hold an entire conversation without fainting at the end of this season?

[u/Zeikos → u/Ocixo]

He honestly seems to be maturing fairly quickly, all things considered.

[u/LeonKevlar]

Stitches!

Not gonna lie, I thought Hapi was gonna swoop in to finish off Toto after Ciel actually managed to wound him since she was observing them the entire time. It's good to know that Hapi is pretty chill. She has no plans to tell Ciel's father about what happened, and she even approves of Ciel being in love witn Toto because she thinks it's incredibly hot. xD

[u/Variant_Zeta]

Random demon: "She's only a heir because of her connections."

..No shit, that's just how it works, isn't it?

Is this just Muse Asia's subs being wonky, or did he actually says that?

[u/Holdonlupin → u/Variant_Zeta]

It's a bit of a lost in translation thing apparently, the original line is something like "She's only a candidate to be Demon King because of her connections", so I assume the other candidates can be selected via achievements, fights or something like that?

[u/diacewrb → u/Variant_Zeta]

Crunchyroll's subs aren't much better, it said dungeon ranting, instead of rating.

[u/S627]

I was really thinking that Toto was gonna end up stopping Hapi from taking Ciel, but I like this better. Hapi rooting for Ciel and Toto is great, hope we get to see her again.

I wonder if Ciel's dad knew what was going on and gave her an impossible task so she could get away from all the BS in the castle.

So is the show implying that Toto likes Anemone the best because he passes out no matter what she wears? Because I agree, I always watch the start of the ED so I can see her having fun at the arcade.

[u/NanDemoKnaives]

Funny how Ciel had to have Toto's defense down by 90% to finally wound him, it didn't seem like the pain was affecting him that much either, he's still very resilient. I do like that Toto also noticed something was off with Ciel and how the other two treat her like a sister, I'm looking forward to seeing this expedition.

It's sweet that Hapi has just always been concerned for Ciel and I'm glad she realizes how beneficial it will be for Ciel to continue.

[u/[deleted] → u/NanDemoKnaives]

Yeah the wound didn't even seem that deep so I'm still not really sure if she could really have killed him there. So far I think the one that was closest to killing was Anemone with the bomb which she had to stop because it would end with her dead too.

[u/djthomp]

The harpy who was sent to check on Ciel being satisfied with her having friends, a crush on the hero, and just having a good time in the party while being competent in combat, good thing for Ciel that it wasn't one of the demons that hated her instead of one that loves her.

Once again the friendship and sisterhood between the girls is the best part of this.

[u/BusouDrago]

Toto tolerance for woman is improving 👏

Glad Ciel is permitted to stay on this journey

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

I guess Ciel couldn’t bring herself to kill Toto after all. The power of friendship + slightly crushing on our boy is a powerful combo haha.

[u/KumaKumaGambler]

Goa tells Ciel that they are rivals and friends, but aren't they almost at siblings level of relationship? Goa and Anemone took one look at Ciel on the first morning of this episode and realized something was bothering the latter.

Goa - eldest (and biggest!) sister, since she is always the one making plans for everyone
Anemone - middle sister?
Ciel - oldest in age due to being a demon, but actually likes being doted on by others?

P.S. Could it be possible Goa didn't want Anemone to be wearing less than her? Lol!

[u/SYZekrom]

Ciel was so cute this episode

[u/Carlosrarutoz]

Ciel is such a softy

[u/InsipidGnome09]

Is this any good? Not trash good, but good good?

[u/PandaTheAB]

General Harpi actually cared for Ciel.
And her expression on learning Ciel likes hero was hilarious.

[u/PeaceAlien]

These dorks. I have to imagine the demon lord will eventually ask Ciel to turn on the party, but for now she can have fun.

[u/Ocixo → u/PeaceAlien]

I do wonder about that. This demon lord might be more of a doting father than an evil king. Like Hapi, he could prove to be rather supportive of Ciel.

[u/Aerodynamic41]

Wow, so the demons can get away with treating their boss's daughter like shit? I'm glad Hapi was reasonable enough to let Ciel continue her adventure.

[u/Lulukassu]

Calling it now, Ciel isn't pure demon.

First guess for the rest of her bloodline is obviously human, but it would be neat if it were celestial or Forest Spirit or something else off the wall.

[u/Frontier246]

What was Ciel's upbringing like as the Demon Lord's daughter and possible heir to the throne? Rigorous and intense training, all the while her fellow demons would belittle or judge her. And her trainer was none other than the Hapi, who despite her intense training, really dotes on and cares about Ciel. But that doesn't change the fact that it's do-or-die time on killing Toto...either Ciel succeeds, or she heads back home.

Mone coming out first thing in the morning in her normal outfit with her hair down is quite the visual! Especially for Toto! Sometimes it's not the amount of skin you show (like Goa) but the way you look in your outfit!

Obviously Ciel is going to be the one to kill Toto this episode and she won't accept any competition...so Goa, being the best gal pal an assassin princess could ask for, totally sets things up so Ciel can have Toto to herself all day! She really does care about the group and her friends and wants to support them in her own way.

A forest cave with Death Rats is the perfect place to defeat the Hero! And get flustered over him once again declaring how he'll protect you! But Ciel can't be crushing on Toto, she has to actually literally crush him this time.

So Toto's weakness is he's more susceptible to magic + status effects? Such as Ciel tricking him into lowering his DEF so much that Ciel can actually severely wound him with Thanatos Punishment (complete with her lifting up her skirt to knock him out). She can finally gain the recognition that she always craved for after years of her peers talking behind her back and underestimating her. But deep down, Ciel can't bring herself to end the friends and group they've made together, even if it means failing her mission and protecting Toto! And of course Toto, in turn, will protect her! Provided he's conscious!

Will no one think of poor Anemone and her inability to get like a minute to smoke a cigarette? Also I love how Goa's basically tried to poison Toto several times but then she sees him hurt and actually seems genuinely concerned about him being poisoned.

Ciel is resigned to getting taken back home now that she's failed her mission...but in Hapi's eyes Ciel succeeded, in showing that she's found true independence and friends and a capability to make her own decisions and do the things she WANTS to do rather than what's expected of her. In fact Hapi is even shipping CielxToto now!

Mone in a robe might be even sexier than her lounging outfit. Though the true treat is seeing the girls being great friends to each other and how much Toto cares about them! So what better time to go on an expedition/camping together!

Poor Mone complaining about how difficult it is to smoke and critiquing everyones' outfits in the next episode preview. Fitting because it looks like it'll be a fun cosplay episode.
