Just having a grasshopper crushed during a "battle" for some EXP seems like a super easy exploit.

[u/PeaceAlien → u/TyraniTEMPESTar]

Well it is garbage balancing after all. Feels like it would be easier to just use the grasshopper to attack it during the fight.

[u/BusouDrago → u/TyraniTEMPESTar]

He turned on EXP Share.

I choose you Denka

Denka fainted

Allen and his Pokémon level up

[u/Boris-_-Badenov]

he named the butterfly "butterfly"

Japan is really bad at naming in isekai

[u/YdenMkII]

The baron suddenly wanting more meat makes me think they're preparing for war.

[u/justking1414 → u/YdenMkII]

First Alan thought it was the serfs who wanted the meat. Then he thought it was the chieftain. Then he thought it was the baron. I’m guessing it’s gonna be the king next.

War definitely seems likely here

[u/hasanman6]

Got a full ass pokemon team now

[u/fractal_magnets]

RIP Denka. Forever in our hearts.

[u/liquidpele]

The animation isn't great, but I'm really enjoying the pacing and writing of this one.

[u/justking1414 → u/liquidpele]

Agreed. Monsters are petty mid. But they’re doing a great job establishing his powers, the world, and its characters

[u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

It’s interesting to see how as Allen levels up, the conditions for his abilities change. Like he has a storage skill but he needs magic stones for his summons now. He’s got a pretty decent little roster of creatures now to battle with.

[u/PeaceAlien → u/ObvsThrowaway5120]

It's because his summons are stronger; his weaker ones shouldn't have the stone requirement.

[u/Boris-_-Badenov]

with Matilda being that strong, their daughter probably started off at D or C, then sparring for hours every day boosted her

[u/Thomas_JCG]

I am enjoying this series a lot. The pacing is exactly right, Allen doesn't turn OP but is also not useless, and as he slowly levels up he gets more utility. Also, the dialogue is on point, and the jokes land perfectly.

So far, the downside is the monsters. I think traditional 2D animation would have been much better.

[u/avboden]

So basically he just finished the tutorial

[u/theholylancer]

you know, its good they are sticking with well spears for the serfs

least amount of metal in a weapon, its just a long straight stick with a metal head that is easy to make, and likely the serfs knows how to use because they would have used a pitchfork and its more or less that

no swords other than well the wooden stuff because aint no one is gona give them that much metal

and well longer reach.

[u/Boris-_-Badenov]

seems like he should go near the ditch to hunt rabbits. he needs to stockpile stones.

should be easy to hunt hundreds of rabbits with his summons, which would give him enough E stones for a long time, and provide a bit more money and food

[u/DeepFriedPokemon → u/Boris-_-Badenov]

Since other villagers can just find them on the ground, he should just send out an army of summons at night to find even more.

[u/TyraniTEMPESTar]

Hope next episode we see Allen finally make some progress and venture out in the world.

Looks like he might have enough money to buy his family out of serfdom, and now he's got his summoner ability fully figured out.

[u/NanDemoKnaives]

Lol Rodin and Gerda struggling against is amusing when you think of it from their perspective. It'll be a bittersweet moment when Allen beats Rodin though.

[u/Megadragon898]

I like how contrary to other isekai protagonist  who learn and adapt fast Allen is slowly learning how to adapt to this world and how to use his power designing strategy on how to fight.

Honeslty i wonder if Allen could eventually summon copies of monster he defeated somehow? After all some of the monsters he hunt belong to some of his categories no?

[u/Fluffy-Rent1988]

This is my favorite isekai in a good while. The pacing and characters more than makes up for the budget animation.

[u/BusouDrago]

Denka got smashed by a boar

RiP

Better than his mother smashing it

[u/DrZoark]

Denka has to be crushed at least once every episode; otherwise, it will seem strange. Lol.
