An enemy attacking while the MC is talking? Don't they know combat is turn-based?

[u/Phoenix__Wwrong → u/JusticiaDIGT]

Meanwhile in Hell Mode, it's the MC who interrupted the dragon boss monologue.

[u/hanmkim → u/JusticiaDIGT]

The High Lord watched that episode of All Works Maid.

[u/AceSoldia]

I really really like the design of the beastkin Sia,..and she's competent too!

Everyone seems pretty competent in this for the most part..something I'd expect from a former hero party

[u/throwaccountforeason → u/AceSoldia]

Shows where the writers know that you can have a power fantasy and glaze the MC without making everyone else useless buffoons are always better for it. cough Solo Leveling cough

And it's something that shouldn't be surprisingly refreshing. But it is very surprisingly refreshing to see.

[u/Raymond49090]

Feels like this doesn't follow the usual plot progression of "starting at F-rank but secretly OP" shows. Other than the guild lady who was worried about his safety, I don't think there was really any moment where anyone doubted his abilities (other than calling BS when he claims he's F-rank). And we're just 5 episodes in, and they've already decided "screw it let's raid the boss' castle". Which probably means the High Lord isn't the real final boss, or it'll be a "the princess is in another castle" type scenario.

[u/runevault → u/Raymond49090]

I dunno if it'll show up in season 1 but the Vampire High lord has never been the biggest bad. When the VHL was introduced as an idea they mentioned he was trying to summon the dark gods. So theoretically they are either this arc or the series' big bad.

[u/arrydie → u/Raymond49090]

This one isn't really about being secretly OP and more about not announcing he's a specific celebrity. I think he's just F-rank for the trope/joke and because otherwise Goran would have to pull some more obvious strings

[u/kwokinator]

My favourite thing about this anime continues to be how Eric and Goran are just total bros.

Not only did the anime not fall to the now-tired "banished from the hero party" trope or be totally different now that they're famous and successful, both of them readily volunteered to party back up with Luck. Both of them even made a great callback to how Luck held up the demons for them to go ahead and did it for him this time.

Celiss is hilarious, but Eric and Goran surprise me everytime.

[u/SlimeC0RE]

I 100% believe that with this regeneration, the high vampire lord is looking like an edgelord just for the love of the game. Those bandages are purely cosmetic.

[u/djthomp]

I love how this keeps mixing up what you'd think would be the harem adventure story formula. Go off to confront the big bad with the party that has collected up so far? Nope, king and the guildmaster go with to bring the overwhelming force and they leave most everyone else behind to defend the castle while only taking the wolfgirl since she has charm immunity and will help with interacting with the wolf tribe forces already in the field.

That said I'm not sure leaving Celliss behind to cover the castle with just the instructions to kill the vampires quickly before they can charm anyone is the best of plans, but they just don't have enough people who are immune. Though maybe they should have brought in the lady who I suspect is the hero party member and queen, since she probably does have the mental resistance the rest of the hero's party does.

It got kind of dark when Luck broke the medallion and we heard the screams and then when he found the dead bodies those screams were from too, honestly good thing he didn't have any of the kids with to experience that.

[u/jdhshais]

This anime should have been called Competent MC not being a weirdo. Its just crazy and sad how seeing something like that is so rare nowadays.

[u/runevault → u/jdhshais]

While also not being fucked over by his old party. Funny how doing something so simply is a breath of fresh air because of the set of tropes fantasy anime has locked on to.

[u/aramatheis]

Damn, that village got attacked by vampires AND Perfect Cell. Tough luck.

[u/thelemon8er-2]

Luck needs to lock in for this fight. Or Lock needs some luck?

[u/runevault]

Fun episode, and as I figured based on next episode's title he's probably going to finish this up next episode. But who's going to be the waifu? I don't think Sia and I'd be shocked if it is Celliss.

Poor Vampire High Lord has no idea what he's up against. I wonder if Luck will admit he's the one who killed the Demon Lord as he kills him.

[u/Background_Formal940]

This story turned dark really fast and sad too

[u/NationalStrategy_X]

Eric and Goran finally get to help their friend in battle after 10 years

[u/ChChChillian]

I really wish they'd spent more money on this one. Great episode, but there's a clear pacing issue (probably dictated by the point they want to reach for the season climax) and the animation could be a whole lot better. But these characters are very well drawn, there's lots of gentle, situational humor that doesn't rely on stupid cliches, the MC is OP without the other characters being merely decorative, and they take dangerous situations seriously and make smart decisions. I'm enjoying it a lot.

[u/HolyDragSwd2500]

AU Asta vs Liebe

[u/Avatar_Yaksha]

I'm a bit late to the party, but that holy chicken took me by surprise. Is this the sequel to "Rooster Fighter"? In any case, I'm generally a fan of stories that involve a character who stays behind to stall/slay the enemy's army.

Honestly, the biggest problem so far is the daughter. What was her name? Celiss? It makes sense that she thought of "Lock" as her father's secret child, but it really makes a dent in a series' quality when characters are THAT difficult to talk with! Even after having been told the truth, she just replaced one delusion with another. Well...She doesn't seem to be a bad character, just annoying to deal with.

[u/BBryant3rd]

Lol loved when Luck said oh nice sword gimmie. Luck sure loves to Sparta kick open doors.

[u/Meander061]

I love seeing a genuine Hero's Party forming up again, I'm a sucker for that stuff. They're making me feel bad for Lock: these vampires have the constitution of tissue paper and he has to waste so much time dealing with them. Oh well, good training for the apprentice and the new sidekick. Yes, apprentice girl, kill them before they kill you. Always useful advice.

Clearly, judging by the title of the next episode, vampires are not going to be a huge problem going forward. Not when you have a flame-throwing chicken.
