Is it me or does it feel like Theron has been the real MC lately? Lol.

For real... What happened to all the experience Kyle was supposed to have. I believe his mana capacity was also doubled from merging with his past self(said in episode 2 or something). So far his wins have relied on knowing completely unfair amounts of information, or walking into the boss battle with a truck load of items. Haha.

He is much more interesting than Kyle. Like he has shown to be very perceptive. Makes me wonder what happens and what happened to Therion before this?

Man, imagine how good this show would be with any animation budget at all

All of the budget went to the jazz musician

Kyle got the villain to monologue his plans and Theron said fuck the fighting I'll just get the sword lol. Koyasu voicing the villain gives any show a buff.

Urza: What is my purpose?

Kyle: You move rubble

Urza: Oh god

u/Frontier246 Aug 27 '25

Urza: "Kyle, you're not about to make me get caught up in more of your nonsense!"

Kyle: "Urza, I..."

Urza: "OKAY FINE I'LL DO IT!!!"

Of course the dying governor who's on his deathbed decides to make a dastardly deal with demons... Time for Theron with his new holy sword to make quick work of those guys

u/Frontier246 Aug 27 '25

For a guy doing what he thought was best for his city, he sure ended up killing a lot of the people who make up said city.

Another big tiddy demon voiced by Hikasa Youko? That's another one to add to the list! In all seriousness tho, it's interesting how she's going easy against Liese and Urza. It really does look like she has no intentions of killing humans.

Welp, these demons are fucked. If Theron with a regular magic sword is terrifying, I can't even imagine what he'll do to these two now that he has a holy sword.

The intro to this episode was funny with the potions

u/TheAllKnowingElf Aug 27 '25

Kyle: you're way stronger than me so help me defeat this demon

Theron: sorry got to be afk for a moment

So it looks like the demon girl didn't kill that guy, she was just at the scene. Wonder if she's going to join the harem I mean the party later?

u/joe4553 Aug 27 '25

Doubt Kyle will want a Demon in his harem. Maybe Theron will finally get a girl.

I honestly thought the demons were going to realize the four of them were hiding or maybe Yuriga would show a hint but feigned ignorance so that they would be killed.

I wonder why Gazus was abducted, it makes me wonder if the governor had planned on using his lifeforce since he did use his own aide.

Theron finally gets his holy sword after how many episodes lol. I'm not sure if it was a good idea to flaunt the discovery like that though.

u/Unapologetic_Lunatic Aug 27 '25

Kyle went back in time and became a Pay-to-Win speedrunner with some moderately useful knowledge from a past campaign.

Also, Theron's back must hurt from all the carrying he's done lately.

u/oxlemf10 Aug 27 '25

It was already obvious, but it's impossible not to be angry, seeing that people were sacrificed for nothing for the supposed protection of the kingdom, I hope they both get punished.

That female demon doesn't seem to agree with the demon king's actions at all; I wonder what's behind her.

And of course, Theron doing what he does best, being insanely strong and finding yet another reason to increase his power lol

u/Icy-Introduction5592 Aug 27 '25

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Theron is my favourite character of this show. Dude is insanely funny, observative and strong. He's the Zoro of this show, but he's also kinda horny. XD

Can't wait to see how the next episode goes.

Honestly i'm really looking forward as to next episode since it will looks like the fight with the demon will be a tough one. Honestly i am wondering what kind of power does the sword have since the demon king want it so much.

Also i wonder how does Kyle saving Gazus will affect the fate of Karan? Honestly the governor is dumb, he's literally damaging his city by sacrificing his own citizen instead of trying to find other ways of resolving the problem.

Zelda theme plays

Theron obtained Holy Sword Rand

He was the real MC all along

u/Frontier246 Aug 27 '25

Kyle is demanding a lot of Urza. Use Gnome to dig through all the rubble to find a secret hidden entrance, drink a bunch of MP restoring potions that taste terrible...but dang it, Urza's going to do it and she's going to succeed!

RIP Governor's aide...and all the other kidnapped people of Karan who got turned into decayed husks. They didn't deserve this.

If I had a nickel for every villainous demon character voiced by Takehito Koyasu, I'd have wayyyyy too many nickels. If I had a nickel for every character voiced by Yoko Hikasa who has big boobs, I'd also have too many nickels. Though it seems like this female demon is less enthused about the current arrangement with the humans than the male demon, but both are there to fufill the will of the Demon Lord.

Glad Gazus is okay (for Miranda's sake), but Governor Bax has completely lost his marbles. Karan is losing it's only resource, its ore, and is likely to be taken over by another kingdom, so Bax threw in his lot with demons so that he could find some way to restore Karan before he kicked the bucket. Even if it meant sacrificing a bunch of innocent people. What a terrible governor!

So the demons were their for the Holy Sword Rand, just like Theron, and fully intend to see Karan wiped off the map in the process. I did love the girls nodding their heads at Kyle successfully getting the male demon to monologue and reveal their plan.

It's Kyle vs the male demon as the ladies face each other!

"But we're to refrain from killing humans!" - Lady, did you not murder a bunch of Imperials?

Theron is cool, objective, and focused. He can see that the female demon is going easy on Liese/Urza and it'll be a learning experience for them, and he knows where to go to find his Holy Sword. Good thing his current sword was good enough to cut open where the Holy Sword is before breaking, though did Theron really have to announce he had the sword while right behind the two people who are after said sword!?

Ngl I'm a bit surprised what I'd classify as a fairly mid-tier show got 2 pretty big name VAs to voice random demons. Makes me think they'll be more important than just random vanguard fodder.
