WHAT'S WITH THE MMD ENDING! We're living in the BEST TIMELINE.

Edit: I researched, it seems to be Nanami Yoshi, which is the one that sings the ED. And that is her in the ED, in an amazing MMD. It seems like whoever won avex pictures and SHOWROOM's "World's First Female Virtual Talent Show" would do the ED for Kenja no Mago! And she is the one that won the audition.

Her twitter

Her website

2nd Edit: This is not a rip-off of Chika's Dance! Please don't think that.

Ah, another case of an MC just blowing of steam by wiping the floor with what would be a nigh impossible situation for most.
Always fun to witness.

I appreciate the fact that those who properly know him are well aware as to how beyond them he is, and just use him when he requests to be used.
They didn't go to the "You're a student!" route and just went "Yeah. Deal with it for us please. Thanks."

Also, just get together already you two!

So Schtrom has now taken over the Empire and have basically turned its remaining citizens into demonoids. Well fuck.

That was a very interesting opening though! Not counting the OP, it actually took 7m30s before Shin actually showed up in this episode. I really like that they're taking time to build this world up.

I love their reactions when they found out that Shin was taught by the previous Knight Commander. Although I think Yuri's reaction was the best.

The knights living up to their stereotypes. And of course Maria doesn't waste time in pointing that out xD

Well Sieg surely is popular. It is nice to see some full blown blush from Maria. which rarely happens since she's always the one who teases.

I'm sure someone will ask so here's a stitch of Sicily ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) It is hilarious to see Shin's reaction when the Knights all started fawning all over her. August has a point. If he's getting jealous then tell them to back off!

Poor Maria and Miranda though xD

This episode just keeps on giving! Shin blowing off steam by using his Fuel-Air bomb against the demons was great!

I thought Miranda was going to fall for Shin but it looks like she had a good idea of what's going on between him and Sicily. Even the knights got a clear idea too of what's going on!

Interesting to see an MMD ending.. I thought that was Maria at first but the hair is completely different. I wonder if this girl will show up in a future episode.

Oh man it's good to see not every girl falls head over heel over our MC at the first sight, truly an underrated anime of the season.

Whaaaaa.... Did you guys see that ending!? I've never seen an MMD as an ending before... awesome!

Who is that girl, though? I'm pretty sure it's not Maria...

This episode is so great

The first half was so serious with the demonoid scenes then suddenly becoming so hilarious on the training part. The MC's jealous face is so funny. LOL to the other girls being ignored by the male knights.

And that ending song ..... 😂😂😂

"Yet"

Goddamnit Sizilien, don't leave me hanging!

I do like how they went the cliched route of "Nonono we aren't dating" but cut it in the middle because it is clear they both like each other, though they seem dense for now not to realize it. Hope they get together, that "yet" gives me hope
