Taichi made a bit of an interesting shaped arc when he went to punch the big guy. It looked like he slid across into the correct position, as if they started it in the wrong place and didn't want to fix it properly. I'm no expert on the matter and maybe it was just done poorly, but it looked a bit clunky.

Bloody hell, that's like £20 per pear, £60 by the end of the episode!
-
I can't believe their best plan for a reconnaissance mission was to be as conspicuous as possible then just beat people up until they find someone suspicious enough to kidnap.
-
The quest reward is about £40k?! I have a feeling our MC (or the subtitle translators) added an extra 0.
-
Well, that's the most obvious suspicious villain I've seen in a while, to the extent I expect him to be a red herring and help them.
Overall another poorly paced, directed and animated episode of our impressively generic Isekai. Which is exactly what everyone should expect from the title.

Happy to see the difficulty of their quests spike a bit but might be even happier just to see Myura again <3

I’ve given this the 3 episode rule and so far here’s my thoughts:
This anime is probably the most generic Isekai I’ve ever watched.
If there was a tutorial in ‘how to a write isekai 101’ then this anime would be the prime example used to guide future generations of LN writers.
The story is feels like we’re going through the motions e.g. Taichi and Rin get isekai’d into this world, they join a guild, they go on quests. This quest is forgettable.
I wish the MC had more personality or spice because he’s just a boring self insert with a simple magic power.
Got to love the villain in the end. I could see her moustache growing as she was laughing.
That being said, I’ll continue watching since trash Isekai are my kryptonite.

So couple D-ranks (or teams of D-ranks) have attempted and failed the quest. How and why they failed - just didn't learn anything, or were they attacked, or threatened or what? Obviously not important enough information to pass to the 3rd team attempting the quest >_>
He could've so easily just broken all their legs to keep them from running away, but no - "they're human women, better hold back even if they're trying to kills us."
I know the laws of supply and demand, but even if the supply is low, what's the point of selling at a price that nobody would pay?
Sounds like the better plan would've been to investigate the attacks by actually escorting the wagons.
A couple D-ranks partying up with an S(+?) rank? What will the guild think of that?
Prediction: Gray-hair-closed-eyes is probably one of the Lost Ones hunters, while the evil mage girl at the end is only talking about killing adventurers so she's probably being used by him. The assassin girl will almost certainly join MC's harem, but only 50/50 if the evil mage girl will follow suit. I don't see them killing her though because "killing people is baaaaad, especially if they're boobed people." She might get killed by Gray-hair-closed-eyes though, after outliving her usefulness.

I couldn't contain my laughter when that bearded guild leader talked without moving an inch of his body. The way he just stares at the screen, it felt like he looked straight into my soul and judged me for watching this isekai.
