I’ve to say I am shocked at how straight this episode was. It has been some time since we had one KONOSUBA episode that targeted much less on the over-the-top parody and extra on simply the easy fantasy. We nonetheless had many KONOSUBA staples like the short cuts and out-of-pocket moments, however the bulk of this episode can merely be summed up in everybody coming collectively to take down an enormous monster. They do, after which the episode ends on a cliffhanger.
Just like the heist episode, this one reveals how a lot I like Kazuma as a personality, even when he is not written as an unapologetic letch. He may be perverted and sarcastic, however he has an honest head on his shoulders. You may see on this episode how a lot he tries to take care of the Darkness with out invading her privateness an excessive amount of. He had each proper to ask her why she was so obsessive about this hydra scenario, however the purpose did not matter, he did not need her to get harm and was keen to place himself within the line of fireplace to cease her . This episode additionally reveals how far Kazuma and the crew have come to the purpose the place the adventurers’ guild was roughly keen to assist them in such a loopy scenario. Sure, you may argue that the crew has constructed up a adequate fame from their earlier achievements, however there was an actual sense of camaraderie right here. It was nice to see everybody come collectively to take down this creature with a authentic plan.
This episode made me smile from begin to end as an alternative of constructing me snicker out loud. The joke that resonated with me probably the most was the random joke within the background the place Aqua sang a lullaby to her dragon egg, and for no purpose threw in a line about Eris having a flat chest. I can not await the egg joke to backfire in her face in the direction of the top of the season. The most important query is why Darkness was so pushed to handle the scenario. If I needed to guess, her household might be struggling and wishes the cash to regain their political standing. I assume subsequent week’s episode will get to the guts of all the things. We’d have an episode with out Darkness as Kazuma and everybody attempt to determine the scenario. I assume it is proof that I actually really feel unhealthy to see Darkness go away after this emotional episode about how nice everyone seems to be once they come collectively.
