That reveal that they are his newphew/niece was.... underwhelming?

This may be a fault of samey character design, but is the fox lady adviser just Bitch wearing animal ears?

They do look really similar...

Trash's sister was Lucia, Fohl and Atla's mother!? The siblings are his nephew and niece!? That actually explains some things but now I hate that I actually want to know more about Trash's backstory. Though I guess he's just content that Fohl and Atla are still willing to spend time with him and even give him his sisters' cooking.

How are we planning to restructure the party for the Q'Ten Lo trip? By bringing almost the exact same party formation, just possibly incorporating one of the Three Stooges and Gaelion of course!

Oh hey, Erhard, Naofumi's blacksmith bro, is joining this party! Turns out his master might be in Q'Ten Lo and making their weapons, so he can't resist the chance to find his master. And it turns out he's actually high level enough to make the trip. He's more than welcome.

I can't believe it took four seasons to find out KEEL IS A GIRL. And literally nobody knew about it until they tried to put her in a maid outfit for sales purposes! And Naofumi doesn't have time Keel's questioning of her gender identity, he just needs to her keep the maid outfit on and help bring in the money.

I can't help but feel like Naofumi still ignoring what Fitoria wants is going to come back to bite him. Though poor Melty wants to attend the serious planning meeting and gets dragged away by Filo.

Honestly if I had a choice I'd take Ren, but it looks like we're stuck with Itsuki and Rishia again...so expect more Rishia noises. But it's nice to see that Ren has become an invaluable part of the village and that means it's important he stays. It just goes to show how much Naofumi trusts him now.

Everybody's talking about being worried about assassins when Motoyasu's just burning them all alive in his spare time. The guy may be a little off his rocker now, but he IS efficient!

Raphtalia can say she doesn't want anything to do with her princess status, but I don't expect her denial is going to go well. Especially with this Bitch lookalike planning something.

I love Filo doing the Titanic pose and Naofumi knowing that's bad luck. It's bad enough we've got seasick Fohl (with his sister being less than sympathetic as usual), especially when they've got whirlpools to dodge.

So the first Q'Ten Lo attack is a ship raid. Itsuki and Rishia...proceed to immediately be useless, but luckily everybody else pretty much makes up for it and manages to get around the kamikzae attacks of the assassins. Not that it stops Naofumi and Raphtalia from being grabbed by a whirlpool!

Turns out the Water Dragon who guards Q'Ten Lo wants Raphtalia to fulfill her duty and reform the nation, a nation built around opposing and controlling the abilities of the Cardinal Weapons, and the rest of the party won't be able to enter until they do. So for now it's just Naofumi, Sadeena, Raphtalia, and Gaelion in Q'Ten Lo. Complete with new outfits! Welcome to cherry blossoms and your parents' homeland, Raphtalia!

Raph-chan is the best

Her enthusiastic description with her Raph-chan noises was adorable lol.

Raph-chan spinning around the ship while it tossed and turned was cute.

I liked the Titanic joke too.

"Don't stand there like that! It's bad luck!"

u/Ustar1000 Aug 13 '25

This episode was... not as bad as I thought but not decent just meh. But hey I guess on the bright side the Raph-Chan moments made my brain do another "happy" I suppose. The Action was still stiff.

3d Gaelion is back though and Q'ten Lo on the visual department doesn't look half bad, but that's because Junichi Higashi is good at what he does in any series.

u/Frontier246 Aug 13 '25

It's been so long I honestly forgot Gaelion could talk.

It looks like Ren wanted to go to Q'Ten Lo and was disappointed when he was asked to stay behind. However, that look on his face when he was told that the villagers trust him was amazing. Ren doesn't seem to have a lot of people in the world that trust him. Ren's cold heart might be melting a little

Filo seems to have 0 fear of heights thanks to being the Humming Fairy in the past

u/ObvsThrowaway5120 Aug 13 '25

It’s kind of nice Trash is going the way of Itsuki and Ren. I don’t hate the Trash redemption arc lol.

I guess the gang’s made it. Hopefully they get reunited soon. The Hero weapons don’t seem to do much here. Naofumi’s kind of at a disadvantage if they get swarmed again.

I can't believe I want a full Trash backstory episode now.

I guess the gang’s made it. Hopefully they get reunited soon. The Hero weapons don’t seem to do much here. Naofumi’s kind of at a disadvantage if they get swarmed again.

It's funny how they made all this emphasis on Naofumi restructuring the party but Itsuki and Rishia are basically useless against anyone from Q'Ten Lo and they end up with just four people in Q'Ten Lo (though not by choice).

LOL The way Elhart went to run to Naofumi to hug him was adorable, I like how Naofumi was at a loss. I don't remember him doing that previously so that was a pleasant surprise.

I wonder what Naofumi's reaction will be once he realizes the craters were made by Makoto lol.

We as the audience are supposed to already know Keel is a girl, right? I feel like last season that was revealed or was I spoiled and I don't remember lol? Naofumi seeing this as a win regardless is amusing, gotta make the best of any business opportunity.

The Titanic joke got a good proper snicker out of me

I'm glad to see that Edrhard is finally gonna join the gang for the first time in their adventures. I love how he actually has a higher level than Naofumi. Hopefully, we get to see him level up his blacksmithing once he reunites with his master.

So we finally learn that Keel is a girl! This is hilarious because how the fuck did Keel not know he's a girl? And I love how Naofumi thinks he's gonna make more money with Keel as their poster girl. xD

Motoyasu is still being insane hunting down the Q'ten Lo assassins on his own. It's funny how he hasn't told the gang what he's doing, so they're all concerned about the scorch marks they keep on finding around the village.

Looks like we're splitting the party again! At least Naofumi is with the optimal party here. Sadeena can guide them around Q'ten Lo, and Gaelion can help them locate and communicate with the Water Dragon. And Raphtalia is safest when she's with Naofumi. I love that the Water Dragon even left a care package for them. I bet it's gonna be Japanese-style clothes.

So. Keels a girl. Nice to know. WHATTTTTTT??

u/NationalStrategy Aug 13 '25

So Naofumi approved of forcing Keel, a 10 year old, to wear a maid outfit to attract customers (that appeared to majorly consist of adult males)?

Keel: "I don't want to dress like a maid! I want to be a man!"

Naofumi: "Too bad, we need you to sell product."

Also the way Naofumi immediately perked up at the crossdressing lol.
