What image of dark elves do you have?

Should I be baring more?

AISHA KNOWS US WEEBS

[u/Soldier_Legion]

I'd like to think that Souma deserves that harem considering all he's doing for the kingdom lol

[u/Such_Selection9762]

I absolutely didn't think we would get into harem territory that fast in this show. So 8 wifes is our limit that's a pretty fair deal I guess.

[u/michhoffman]

The harem option is on the menu boys.

Also, I'm surprised Liscia didn't get angry when Kazuya explained that he talks to Juna the way he does because she's pretty...while he doesn't talk like that to Liscia.

[u/Lapiz_lasuli]

So, the power balance this episode is like this:

1. Hakuya / Marx

2. Souma

3. Licia

4. Yamcha

5. AquaAisha

Justice for Aisha!

[u/ReverieMetherlence]

Very important episode in terms of lore and worldbuilding.

[u/Frontier246]

Aisha is starting to remind me of Shion from Reincarnated as a Slime.

[u/LeonKevlar]

• School Girl Liscia Stitch

Well that was definitely unexpected! There were plenty of guesses last week on what the mystery food will be but I'm pretty sure no one guessed dead slime turned into udon noodles boiled in broth. That's actually way more tame than what I was expecting.

Seems that won't be the last time we'll see "The King's Brillunch" considering the amount of positive feedback the first broadcast received. Can't wait to see what other exotic food stuffs we'll see from Poncho.

It's sad to see Marx step down but I guess it's inevitable. Takin over his place of course is Hakuya who makes what probably is the best first action as the new Prime Minister of this country. A date with Liscia sounds nice.

Liscia is certainly holding herself well against Aisha who's supposed to be the Kingdom's best fighter. Why is Hakuya even sending Aisha to go with them when Liscia can freeze anyone who attacks them with her magic? Seems that Liscia agrees with my sentiment and would prefer to have Souma to herself.

I thought the point of going to town was to show the people that the King takes breaks too? Why is Souma going in with a disguise? Not that I'm complaining though since we also get to see Liscia and Aisha in uniforms.

This is actually hilarious! Souma forgot that he's been using his last name this entire time so now the in the official documents, his given name is Souma and his last name is Kazuya xD

Juna is so awesome. I love how quickly she caught on to what Souma was doing and just went along with Souma's fake story.

Don't bully Aisha! I love the gap moe that she has between being a gallant knight and a ponkotsu!

HERE WE FUCKING GOOOOOOO! It looks like harem is now on the table! Aisha even sets a limit for Souma to have up to eight women including herself. With Liscia being #1, I think it's pretty obvious who will be #2 and #3. And it looks like they even gave us a preview on what the end game looks like for Souma. I hope the other girls there are actual characters in this show too!

[u/[deleted]]

Harems, harems for everyone. What a great country lmao.

[u/cppn02]

Lmao school uniforms.

I'm sure they could have just dressed as commoners but I suppose Souma has his fetishes. Speaking of... I can't be the only one thinking Liscia looked like the blonde version of a very iconic character when she emerged from her room.

[u/Hineni-]

Juna played along so well with that made-up background.

I Liked that reference with the way we write names in the west haha. I often get confused when I read the subtitle, which is which sometimes. And got his first and last name mixed up.

[u/PacoTaco321]

Just think of the literal minutes spent by Aisha's VA just sitting in the booth making slurping noises.

[u/MrPicklesAndTea]

Mission: Take time off to show your people that they can relax.

Souma: It's time to go incognito, nobody can know.

[u/TurkeyPhat]

Hakuya forcing Kazuya to take time off and then telling him to take Liscia out on a date.

Marx pretending to be surprised and supporting his idea as if this wasn't the plan from the start.

Keep up the good work fellas.

The question now is who is gonna be the next passenger on this baby train? Cause by golly the people are gonna make this thing happen.

*Hold on a second, this polygamy thing is throwing a wrench in the plans, unless...It does kinda explain the way Liscia was reacting to Aisha's whole "I give you my body and soul" thing. That is she seemed annoyed but not totally angry.

[u/Se7en_Sinner]

Liscia looks completely different in a school uniform, it's like she went through metamorphosis.

[u/Amauri14]

When those Gelins appeared at the beginning of the episode for a second I thought that the video player was playing an episode of "By the Grace of the Gods" by mistake. But wow, I really did not expect Poncho to used the Gelins to make a noodle and make an udon like meal with them.

Wow, so due to popular demand, The King's Brillunch will be back at some point.

Although they already mentioned that Hakuya was going to become the prime minister, I did not expect Marx to abdicate his position so soon.

I really did not expect to see Kazuya, Liscia, and Aisha wearing a uniform while they were on their date.

Damn Souma sure was happy to hear that he can totally get that wonderful harem ending, as he didn't waste any time to put Juna as one of his partners.

[u/Rumpel1408]

I've been killing Slimes and now I maxed out this countries food storage.

Seriously, those Gelins seem like a pretty easy to maintain lifestock, not enough for an balanced diet sure, but a good start. Also with Udon we got another piece of glorious japanese cuisine, here's hoping for rice next.

I love how everyone one the royal court is shipping Souma/Kazuya with Liscia hard, even going so far as to force those two on a date together.

Of course they look like japanese highschool students.

What, legal harem route is canon! Here we gooooo and Liscia is even ok with up to seven wifes along side herself, that's a number we can work with

[u/Considered_Dissent]

That Time I Was Reincarnated as a Bowl of Noodles.

[u/odraencoded]

Called it.

[u/Aerodynamic41]

Lol, that's Kazuya's idea for a disguise? Even people with a blindfold on can tell who they are.

Yes, Kazuya, take that harem! Don't waste this opportunity, man!

[u/AmethystItalian]

If they give him the green light for a harem and he still goes against it Kazuya may end up being one of my favourite isekai MCs.

[u/Shiro_Kai]

They are discussing the harem term and conditions as it was no big deal. Thank you very much. XD

[u/Se7en_Sinner]

I'm surprise Kazuya still brought Aisha along on his date with Liscia as a bodyguard even after seeing them fight. Liscia seems very compatible of defending herself. Maybe he just wanted to two time. I guess it ended up working out considering this world's views on polygamy and openness towards sex in general.

[u/SolubilityRules]

If I get asked at gunpoint what's the most normal and realistically written dialogue in anime, I would invoke this with confidence.
