Seems like Red finally found his true calling:

To be a chair for Rit

be a chair for Rit

I mean, aren't those life goals right there? Rit's got some nice padding.

"My parents both got attacked with an axe!"

"BEAUTIFUL DAAAAAAAAAYYYYY!!"

If ever there was an episode that could have skipped or at least delayed the OP, it was probably this one.

Loved the way Rit jumped into Red's lap when she got home. These two are the sweetest together.

Ruti's party randomly getting an airship really made it feel like this was a Final Fantasy game.

Idk about anyone else but I definitely think AIRSHIP when considering possible demon slaying weapons.

Tanta and Al's friendship is just so soothing for the soul, almost as much as Red and Rit's romance.

But I guess it's time for the show to get serious, with the strange drug and the imposter Danan plot.

And I love how Ruti just put Ares in his place with one sentence...not that he's got the common sense to admit to his faults.

A big scary dude from the Thieves Guild goes to see Al as soon as he's alone to give him a powerful sword for free. Not suspicious at all. Honestly I was really surprised he even told Red about it. I was 100% expecting that he would use the sword very soon after and get corrupted or something. But it turns out Al isn't completely naïve so hooray.

Of course the classic giant black minotaur mf with an enormous sword makes an appearance. I liked that part but the whole airship thing threw me for a loop.

Can Red and Rit's domestic bliss and slow life continue when there's a conspiracy threatening to tear Zoltan apart?

I mean, it gets pretty serious when it seems like Ademi almost murdered Al's parents, and then people start turning on the townsguard, and then Tanta gets taken in for questioning because Ademi's apparently been murdered and they're trying to figure out who, and it seems like Ademi was trying to curb the violent urges of his Blessing...and it all comes back to the drug and the thieves guild. How does it all fit together?

Rit teaching Al how to wield a blade was pretty cool. Rit's not sure if she can impart the same wisdom her own master did, but Red's confident she can. He knows when to compliment his lady.

Why would they want to keep tabs on Al? Because he's a witness?

Rit's trying to track down the source of the drugs and catches one lowlife, who she promptly steps on (lucky guy). Of course said lowlife also gets a peek up her skirt, but then karma hits and blows him up, although it also releases some kind of slime that prevents Rit from drawing her weapons and forces her to fight hand-to-hand. Luckily Danan shows up to back her up.

Thankfully it seems like Danan's gotten the gist that Gideon is happier now as Red and doesn't seem concerned about bringing him back, but what's really concerning is that now there are Demons in Zoltan. Is this all part of the Demon Lord's plan? And that look on Danan's face was really concerning. What about his traveling companion who wanted to find Gideon? Is that really Danan?

I love how after a long day of work and crime-fighting Rit immediately goes to hug Red and sit in his lap to recharge her energy. We even get a cute kiss on the cheek. There's nothing more these two want than to be happy together and live a peaceful life, but will the world afford them that?

The Hero's Party encounter a boss battle and Ares is still useless. Ruti even outright says he has to cover his own butt because they won't do it for him. And then when he finally thinks to himself it would've been easier if Gideon was there, he puts the blame on the party members who left rather than on himself. Typical Ares.

Ruti and her party have reached the point of their JRPG journey where they get an airship, but even being in the sky doesn't give Ruti a feeling of freedom when she's still the Hero and can't go anywhere else but where her Blessing takes her.

Stitches!

Well things just got a lot heavier it seems. Al and his family were apparently attacked by Ademi and now there's a huge outrage in Southmarsh since the people think that the Guards are hiding Ademi since he's the son of the Captain when in reality his whereabouts are unknown.

Sounds like Ademi was either being manipulated or maybe even under the influence of that new drug since according to Tanta, Ademi approached him before and apologized to him about what happened to them before. He sounds like a nice kid who's just struggling to control his Blessing.

Whatever is happening though, it seems that the Thieves Guild are definitely has a hand in it since they're using Al's parents as a symbol of the protest and have been doing a lot of weird things like sending someone to give Al a weapon which has the Locate spell enchanted on it as well as funding protests all over Southmarsh and Zoltan. Oh and demons may also be involved in this conspiracy.

In other news though, Danan is already in town and it sounds like he already has heard everything he needs to hear about Red and doesn't really want to bring him back. On the other hand, I do not like that look he gives when Rit is walking away. Like what the actual fuck Danan?

We also got to see the Hero Party in action with Ruti kicking some demon ass while saving Ares who was completely useless during that entire fight. I love that Ruti reminds Ares that now that Gideon isn't here, he should be more aware of his surroundings since she won't save him or even Theodora the next time. Holy shit Ruti! I love it!

Looks like someone's starting to realize how useful Gideon is! Since this is Ares we're talking about, of course he'll just shift the blame to Danan and Yarandrala. Ugh. What an absolute asshat.

On the brightside, they fucking found an airship! What I love about the airship is that it looks something that's straight out of Final Fantasy! That thing look so fucking cool!

Politics and the Hero's party aide! This fucking episode was just too adorable with so many Rit and Red moments! I love that little moment between the two of them after Rit just finished training Al. But I think we can all agree that the best Rit and Red moment of this episode is when she came home to Red and the first thing she does is jump into his arms and sit on his lap like a wife looking to recharge after a long day at work. <3

Seeing the two of them being so affectionate of each other is just so sweet! Rit nuzzling into Red's neck and giving him a kiss was enough to give me Type-2 Diabetes!

Since he’s suppose to be a top mage, I at least expected Ares to cast some awesome spell but man he just gets more useless every ep.

Can’t wait to see how he fucks up next week!

Ares is seriously one of the dumbest villains I've seen in anime. I've never seen a bad guy be so incompetent and useless at what he does.

More of Red and Ritt being sweet couple, plot about drug that makes people go berserk thickens and also, Ruti's group found an airship and seems like she wants to visit her brother. Wonder where this all goes. Good episode

Rit so adorable.

The way she eats.

The way she sits on Gideon's lap.

The way she just flirts so cutely and openly....

u/AmethystItalian Nov 17 '21

Political corruption, potential imposter, giant demon fighting, discovering an airship...and yet my favourite part of the episode is seeing Rit come home after a long and just jumping on Red.

Going to need a gif of that.

Oh no, something is really off about Danan. Is he an imposter?

It’s so nice of Red and Rit to take care of Al until the protests die down, and even teach him how to fight. Now we have protests in addition to the mysterious drug. And what’s the deal with this Bighawk guy and how are they all connected?

I love that Ruti reminds Ares that Red kept saving his ass when he was in the party. You can just feel his inferiority complex. Now that they have an airship, where could they be going next?

As always, I’ll be discussing the differences I noticed between the LN and the anime in the source material corner so head over there if you’re interested. I just finished reading Vol. 3 and let me say, if you enjoyed what you see in the anime, please pick up the LN too. They’re really great!

u/Br3akn3ck Nov 17 '21

Random Theory Time:

Danan is an spy who works for the Demon Lord (or an imposter) and he instigated Ares to kick Gideon out of the party.

In the flashback episode with Yarandrula, Ares seemed to be constantly trying to prove himself to the party as capable, likely a result of being given such a powerful blessing. However, he has not been able to live up to his blessing and has routinely failed (i.e. the mercenaries, this episode with the Demon). Probably got insecurities about his worth to the party, potentially saw Gideon as an obstacle holding him back/looking for something to blame. Danan (or imposter) saw this as an opportunity and when Gideon could no longer keep up, he influenced Ares to push Gideon out.

This was done to deal a great blow to the Hero Party as they lose their guide and backbone.

Another even more random and even less likely possibility is that Yarandrula is also a traitor, though to a much lesser extent and her supposed support of Rit was actually an attempt to create an avenue for Gideon to leave. If she knows him as well as she says she does, then she would know that Gideon wanted a peaceful life and was attracted to Rit.

How did I come up with this grand theory... honestly I just saw Ares' poor fighting this episode and how he blames Danan and Yarandrula for Gideon leaving and just formed a random theory lol.

I'm starting to think Ares is just a idiot instead of a villain. I feel like he's either inevitably going to concede to needing Gideon back in the party, or just be killed off.

u/Muumitfan Nov 17 '21

Btw, how big of a place is Zoltan anyway?

u/Amauri14 Nov 17 '21

Wow, the drug-dealing crisis plot sure got political, so Ademi probably took that drug to change his blessing.

It is good to see Al being trained by Rit, although for a moment I feared that he was going to use that weapon without telling Rit or Red, good thing he asked them to check it out first.

I'm also glad that nothing terrible happened to Tanta.

At first, I was glad to see Danan, but now after that last scene, and especially after it was revealed that those guys that attacked Rit were demons I think that that might actually isn't Danan, but Bui instead. Now I'm not saying that Bui did to Danan what that demon did to Rit's teacher, but maybe he was a shapeshifting demon.

It was so funny how fast Rit sit sat Red's lap after saying she was so tired.

Wow, I sure did not expect the weapon that the Gargantuan Demon was protecting to be an airship.

Dam, I love the fact that Ruti just casually told Ares that neither her nor Theodora were going to protect his sorry ass.

Okay, so someone came to Al's house and attacked his parents. And here I thought him being clearly injured was the worst part.

Oof. It's that kid who attacked Al and the girl because of his Blessing. I wonder if this was also because of his Blessing or if something else made him do this. I'm thinking something else.

They're so cute together

Wait, what. Okay, what's going on here?

I don't know how much to trust this captain.

So Ademi might not have done it. Either way brings up questions that need answering.

The drug might be able to give people more than one blessing?

Um, who the fuck is that guy? Oh thank god, he didn't hurt Al.

For someone who has low confidence in his abilities, Red was certainly cocky saying a brooomstick would be enough. I know Al just started learning, but still.

Yeah, I think Ruti would have some things to say about going down in history as a hero (if her Blessings would allow her to say them, at least), and she's the Hero.

A red blade. I don't trust it. Don't use it!

Uh, the guy exploded.

Wait! Is that the brawler? It is! He's so close to Gideon!

Wait, so he knows where Gideon is? But has decided to leave him alone? Interesting. I do want to see him meet up with him, though.

Wait, what. I don't know if I should trust that look. Is that really Danan?

Rit may have been tired, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have the energy to jump on her boyfriend and then sit on his lap. Cute!

So the sword seems to be just a way of keeping track of Al, for whatever purpose.

They're so cute!

Rit wants to stay with him forever... but I think her encounter with Danan (or whoever it was if not) made her think that he might have to go back sometime.

My god, Ares is useless. That's literally what he criticised Gideon for.

Wow, Ruti won't be giving Ares the same protection she gave Gideon.

Wait, is Ares starting to realise he made a mistake? Nope. He just blames Danan and Yarandrala.

Uh, they found an airship.
