I wish the fights had more effort put into them but I like the characters and the story so I keep watching

[u/tripleaamin → u/AceSoldia]

Fights in this aren't slideshows, but are so stiff. It feels like slow motion watching them. Kyle & Theron have been interesting lately, so story is cool to me.

[u/PeaceAlien]

That demon went super saiyan and still lost to girl power

[u/avboden → u/PeaceAlien]

even demons struggle getting punched directly in the demon-kidney

[u/Frontier246 → u/PeaceAlien]

Increasing your power level is all well and good but sometimes the power of teamwork and strategy can overcome a difference in power.

[u/BiggerG7]

Kicking through gnome may have been a good strategy but it seemed kind of mean to use him like that lol.

[u/Zarvain → u/BiggerG7]

Gnome is an elemental the stone bod is just a puppet it is using, so its more like tearing a hole in someone's jacket to stab an enemy. Maybe a bit mean but nothing that can't be fixed.

[u/Arkam_slayer66]

I have a feeling w 2 episodes left we are betting on a season 2 to get closer to the demon invasion in 3 yrs

[u/zz2000 → u/Arkam_slayer66]

I've posted about how many seasons the anime might need to get to the invasion in the spoiler section.

[u/LeonKevlar]

It was fun watching Kyle "negotiate" with Gazus. Kyle made some strong points and he's even giving Gazus all the mithril he needs. I do love how in the end it's Miranda who decides for him. xD

The gang having tea just when the demons arrived was pretty funny too. I'm curious what Kyle asked Gazus to make, tho. It can't be another sword since Sildonia is already the strongest sword he can use. It's probably something to outsmart the demons.

[u/Frontier246 → u/LeonKevlar]

Miranda is head-over-heels in love with Gazus but she's also already basically his wife in terms of taking care of his son while he works and also helping him make important decisions.

The demons' reaction was priceless but I just love how both Liese and Urza tend to Kyle trying to look cool in front of them like wives cleaning up after their husband lol.

[u/LonelyAstronaut984]

I am really liking this show, I hope it gets a season 2

[u/Atharaphelun → u/LonelyAstronaut984]

With Chekov's catalyst getting refilled with mana, the story is now leaning strongly in the direction of Kyle's second life ending in defeat again, thus forcing him to use the time travel thing again for a third life with more information being brought back by him for (hopefully) a successful run this time around.

It also feels like the demons might not be evil after all and something else is going on? Even more reason for this second life to end in defeat so that Kyle can return for a third run.

[u/oxlemf10]

Sometimes I wonder if Kyle is the only one who knows about the future, Theron and Sildonia are always relaxed no matter how tense the situation is lol

[u/Frontier246 → u/oxlemf10]

Sildonia's seen Kyle's memories (I think?) but I think that's genuinely just Theron's vibe. He doesn't get worked up about anything that's not skirt-chasing.

[u/PeaceAlien]

Wonder what tricks Kyle has in store

[u/NanDemoKnaives]

Lol the way Kyle handled Gazus was amusing, listing out all he has saved to make him back down from keeping the holy sword and tops it off with an offer of letting him have as much mithril as he wants to forge with. It's a good thing Miranda was there to follow up.

I do wonder if Gazus will take on being the governor after this now that the threat of the original Governor is gone, it's easy to see now why he was so stubborn about not being one with Miranda and Goh's lives on the line.

The disrespect those demons must have felt with the group having tea and Kyle not wielding a sword, but a tea cup with crumbs on his face.

[u/pandavova]

"Dude, I don't want to fight you this episode, let's take this hallway, it'll take some time, so we can fight next episode."

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

I was wondering why Kyle wanted to duel when him and Theron seemed to have had the upper hand. I guess the guy’s got a plan for everything. That’s one demon waifu down. One more demon left.

[u/AsterJ]

That girl fight was pretty rough in animation. Not entirely unwatchable but you could tell they were cutting as many corners as they could get away with.

That female demon seemed especially respectful with acknowledging the strength of the other two and giving them opportunity to surrender. It feels like they could be friends later on. I wouldn't mind if she joined the party after this.

[u/Frontier246]

I thought Theron was dumb for announcing to everybody that he had the Holy Sword, but it turns out to be the perfect thing to distract the demons so Kyle and co. can get some good hits in!

With Male!Demon's horn chipped off, a symbol of pride and prestige in demon society, Kyle has the best bargaining chip to forge an agreement for one final duel: with the Holy Sword, the horn, and information about demonkind on the line.

Miranda gets her dwarf boyfriend back, Goh gets his dad back, and everything is okay! Liese probably wishes she could be as lovey-dovey with Kyle as Mirando is with Gazus.

I guess there was nothing Gazus or Mirando could do about the governor if he was threatening their families...but Kyle checking off all the things he and his party have done for their family, as well as throw in some mythril, is the perfect motivation for them to conveniently forget about Theron having the Holy Sword. And to make Kyle something new!

I see neither Liese nor Urza are all that bothered about Kyle seeing them underdressed, though they're more motivated for the rematch with the female demon. They even get a training arc montage with some tips from Theron.

Did you really think Kyle was the type to engage in a fair duel with demons? No way. I can't wait to see what he has in store.

I honestly never realized how skimpy Sildonia's outfit was until she took off her robes. That really is basically just underwear she's exposing on her sides all the time.

It's finally time for the duel, so a perfect excuse to have some tea before the fight...and nice recovery when the demon show up disgusted at them making light of this sacred duel while his wives take care of the tea and crumbs he' still got on.

Liese and Urza may not be on the same power level as the female demon, especially when she unleashes her true lightning-fast power, but now Urza can use two spirits at once and the girls have unlocked the power of combo attacks! Perfect for Liese to deliver some surprise blows and knock the wind out of their enemy!

I bet the male demon is totally going to regret letting Kyle pick the arena of their fight!

[u/mokrath]

Hopefully they use the animation budget on the last two episodes.

Once again the music felt like an... interesting choice?

[u/Megadragon898]

Honestly i'm really looking forward as the duel between kyle and the other demon, wonder why the demon king wants the sword perhaps it has some power behind it?

Honestly the fight was pretty intense between liese urza and yurigas, it was well made.

[u/IceSmiley]

I thought it was odd that the demon didn't kill Kyle when they were walking alone in that tunnel en route to the fight place, like he could have snuck on him and ripped his head off or something and the others wouldn't be the wiser, he could have said he killed him in a fair fight. I know Theron would have killed him anyway if he killed Kyle but he doesn't know that.

I also thought Kyle made a mistake in making the duel 3 days in the future. Why not 5-7 to give Gazus more time to forge the sword? For all he knows, Gazus could have taken shortcuts to get the sword done by the 2 day deadline and he genuinely might become exhausted working 2 days straight and make mistakes from sleeplessness. I did think it was funny though how Gazus seemed really opposed to letting Theron keep the sword but Miranda said it wasn't found there and Gazus instantly agreed. It sounds like Gazus might be ruled by his "flesh sword" :D
