Comparisons to manga/LN are fine, such removed scenes, as long as they are under spoiler tags. Discussing future content is not allowed period, even under spoiler tags.

If you’re talking about something I posted, it’s been a long time since I read it but I think it was already mentioned at this point in the LN. if not I’m willing to delete it. Just PM me with the future content and I’ll remove it. Either way my statement holds: rather than complaining about how little sense people think something makes before the arc even concludes it might just be better to sit and wait to see.

And honestly I didn’t get the feeling that the show was bending itself that hard to make Souma look good. He looks good yes, but it’s not THAT bad. And people aren’t just “oh you’re so amazing” all the time. I’d say the Euphoria sisters might be interested in what he has to say, or appreciate his perspective, but I can’t see them just kissing up to him.

Heh, Roroa finally makes an appearance. I can see how they can avoid violating the mankind declaration if Souma decides to marry her.

Honestly can't wait for the next episode

I would like to emphasize that this thread is to discuss the anime not whine about the parts of it that you don’t like. If whining is all you have to bring to this thread, then please take it elsewhere (VM, PM or make a social group).

[belatkuro]

...So what was the story that Souma was referencing about a woman inside a basket of carpets that was the same thing that Roroa did here? I'm not familiar with it.

[Valkyrie29]

This is the story of Cleopatra

[yuiichi9]

Wonder how the countries around elfrieden will react to the merge with amidonia. How souma will resolve the food crisis amidonia have?

I do wonder if Carla, who was initially depicted as a dramatic character who foolishly followed her ideals even to the point of putting her life and title on the line and willing to face execution for her actions...and then getting tasked with being basically the one person Souma trusts to take him out if he goes too far...really deserved getting turned into a comedy relief maid character for fanservice who gets dominated by a sadist maid.

[yuiichi9]

At least carla will be save since she will work as a maid rather than fight in the front lines in the event of a military conflict.

Yeah... I considered bringing up Carla the other day but figured the conversation wouldn't go anywhere particularly good. The series strength is its harem building so I'm going to ignore any aspect that has to do with anything other than adding waifus. Hopefully we get queen #5 before too long.

[Tenzen12]

Harem is pretty much it's weakest part though. While Souma being able solve everything too easily to point it breaks suspension of disbelief, at least other nation politics (especially empires) make more or less sense. Harem shenanigans in other hand don't.

I think the relationship building with Liscia is fine at least.

[Tenzen12]

Sort of, I can certainly believe she fallen for him, but honestly all things considered I am not buying she should be as fine as she is with him taking other wifes and even encouraging him to do so (it's bit of relieve last episode showed she does have some problem with it, but I don't think that's enough), given she herself grew in harmonious monogomaous family and by her own words it was monogamous due her father showing respect to his wife. I would have much less problem with it if her familly circumistancess were different.

The harem isn't justified well but its at least executed fairly well, or at least the wife collecting is. The politics stuff ends up being sort of mindless power fantasy because there's no real stakes - turning Carla into comic relief is pretty indicative of that. It also seems I was mistaken about her becoming a wife but I still think the series is best at being a harem and there's plenty more time to add a No. 5.

[Tenzen12]

That doesn't make any sense. How can it be executed well when it happening isn't believable due flimsy justification?

Well even putting that aside there isn't much chemistry going on. I can believe Juna, there are some good moments and Liscia though while believable is completely uninteresting (so not exactly good execution either).

[Huh...?]

I am not sure, why people are worrying about Harem stuff, when normally even general monogamic relationships are not handled properly in a Shounen Series.

Male-Female character relationships have always been a weak point for a Shounen Series, be it mono or poly, so no need to say whether its weak or unjustified.

You guys are going to get the thread locked again...

Well in shonen romantic relationship make like 1% of story, sometime not even that. That said if it's relevant enough and it's bad, you will still get people complain, that's not really matter of whether there is one waifu or five. What's bad is bad.

As for this show, it's only "bad" in sense that there is no reason to care. No matter who or how many new wifes join , I doubt anyone will give a damn. and if there are some... well, good for them I guess. Personaly I wouldn't care even if they died or divorced and went for someone else.

I think you're misunderstanding something, what I think it "executes well" is basically housewife Pokemon, not romance. In general I wouldn't compare isekai romance to your typical Jump shonen or something either but you guys are getting way off topic.
