I'm glad that Tama didn't leave the party, it would be damn boring without her. (And Sensei's disdain towards Nir's coffin-pulling skills was funny.) The mark of the divine beast felt a bit like a deus ex machina but it worked well in the end.

KS had some impact on me learning Braille. Okay, perhaps not as much as Aldous Huxley saying that it's comfy to read with your head under blankets, but still.
My sides went into orbit as the dwarf was explaining that bikini armour was just the old DM's fetish.
I bet that the boss told Amano that Lu can be resurrected just to be left alone.
This chapter can be summarised with two words: "oh shit".
Odds are that they'll be able to heal Takuto and dispel Atou's mind control. And she'll feel extremely guilty afterwards. (Next time make sure that your cute elf-looking eldritch abominations are resistant against mind attacks!)
Oh, we're moving into the Sweaty Feet Arc! Because, you know, fungal infections in isekai are serious business!
Okay. Serious now. I get that the author wanted to make Dahlia's tools something mundane and relatable. Still fun to watch, and I'm glad that I picked this series up.
The episode also shows Wolf's relationship with his older "girlfriend"; it's clear that she isn't romantically interested on him or vice versa, but they seem close enough. More like friends pretending to be a couple for the convenience of both. I think that "Vee" is Wolf's mother? The fact that his pseudo-girlfriend has a portrait of her shows that they were likely close friends. (She's nice-looking, refined, by the way. But Dahlia is still cuter.)
The runaway bird returns to the cage.
Another great episode. The "random party member with a shady background is actually royalty" plot twist was kind of obvious, but now we got to learn Tama's actual name. Who cares, she's still Tama.
The king seems to be manipulative, but he still cares enough for his daughter to jump into danger for her sake. It looks like overprotection from a distance.
Classical game exploit - tanking framerate on purpose so you have more time to react!
I love the way that it contrasts Übel and ~~Land~~ Four-Eyes thought process: one gives up thinking, another overthinks it, but they reach the same conclusion.
To be frank this episode was a bit of a letdown for me. It does explain why the Emperor wants to see Seras dead, why Civit is so bloodthirsty, why Touka didn't use Pigimaru right off the bat against Civit... but the manga chapters do all of those in a more exciting way, less as "passing comments" and more as part of the plot, you know?
Plus the scene where the Emperor was losing his shite thinking on Seras is way funnier.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still watching it, and I'm enjoying the series. But it could be better.
Of course they'd put Luce on the foreground, with the main character (Elma) on the back. Still, the picture looks really good, and as Phelpssan said the series is solid. I'm going to watch this one for sure!

Episode in a nutshell: a couple horny but clueless bakas.
At least their feelings for each other are a bit better conveyed in the animation than in the manga. In the manga some events feel out of the blue, but here it seems that it's building up nicely.
The coliseum CG is really jarring, but on the lighter side the characters are cuter. For Seras this is a given, but Eve also got prettier, without losing badass vibes:
