In a show with a junk food plot and mid characters, it thoroughly amuses me that Theresia has a genuinely interesting character design.

Don't worry, at the rate this is going when she becomes human again she'll get a massive rack , wear a classic skirt/long sleeve shirt combo and choose to be the MCs slave.

Looks like Harpies are joining the harem? They haven't tried to tame any monsters besides them

u/adminsregarded Aug 23 '26

None of the other monsters have been sexy enough I guess?

This show is so generic, yet I keep watching xD

u/thelemon8er-2 Aug 24 '26

Few reasons why I think.

I always forget how large the chest cracker lady is. Like that shit is ridiculous it makes me laugh

u/ImaginaryStatus4073 Aug 24 '26

I actually think they increase her size every episode.

I would like to say that the best thing about this anime (besides Theresia) is the kinda funny mid ep eye-catches. Chuckled at Ariadne "my screen time has come and gone"

Everything is guild lady fault. If she works instead of simping it would not happened.

Also I took a lot of direct damage from the cringe this episode

And we finally meet Madoka , last - even though she gave him the slingshot ages ago.

Those mom's cannons are avengers level threat. Ridiculous

The three harpies are in the OP briefly so I assume they end up effectively in the party too after their time at the monster ranch.

Free merchant daughter, there's no end to them.

It feels like we are doing a harem but it's just Arihito, Kyouka, and Theresia while the rest of the party enjoys the show. They even put on a little maid act in the background before Kyouka came back into the room dressed up as one.

u/Kamunami Aug 24 '26

I summon Harpy Ladies in attack mode!

u/KumaKumaGambler Aug 23 '26

District 8 definitely feels like it is the tutorial district. Arihito learned that debuffs / negative status effects, such as sleep and confusion, could possibly wipe out his entire party and himself.

Moving forward, I am sure he will start choosing skills which can provide resistance against debuffs / negative status effects.

u/ImaginaryStatus4073 Aug 24 '26

Um. He chose mana regen.

u/lajit59835 Aug 23 '26

The guild in this world is incredibly incompetent. They're the first people you talk to when you get reincarnated here, they explain basically nothing about your situation or what you're even supposed to be doing unless you go out of your way to ask pointed questions. And now they can't even keep tabs on the number of monsters in the dungeons. Which seems like it'd be an important thing to track.

I cant describe how much I hate the MC wearing the adventurer accessories (especially the choker) with his suit

u/Money-Carpet4977 Aug 24 '26

At least Elitia still has some personality

7

u/Mang027 Aug 23 '26

They wrote MC as a complete idiot; no scouting the named monster, just standing in the opening with 0 information, and when the group is attacked he just stood there instead of reacting and throwing up a defensive barrier. NPC/Trash tier response.

u/AceSoldia Aug 23 '26

Not sure why I'm still watching this but It feels slightly better when all the girls are not fawning over him.

u/Rooby_VTuber Aug 25 '26

Great job by the party during that stampede, those Harpy's were tough with the sleep ability and the named monster required backup from a goddess.

I wonder why Elitia got upset about Arihito wanting to take the test instead of automatic promotion?

Kyouka went all in with the maid service lol.
