Well, technically acts of greed should also raise his demonic power, not just lust as has been focused on so far. I guess the priority makes sense given his age, but they have really left gluttony and greed languishing so far. Wonder if winning a copious amount of money will raise his power when it's going to the cleric? Probably not, more's the pity.
The premise of this show is kind of horrible, but it has surprisingly some heartwarming moments and likable characters, and evidently most of the truly indecent stuff is left to the viewer's imagination, if any. So there is that. |

When the fate of a noble girl's life rests on a Harem rating game/showcase .
Jeez, a lot of guys in this city seem to have Harems, unless they just found a bunch of girls to pose the part for them. Although I feel bad for the women that they were so criticized and yelled at for their looks. They didn't deserve that . When the audience in-universe realizes how much of a Best Girl Emma is! Her undeniable cuteness, spunk, and empathy manages to win the crowd over! Of course, her big boobs helped too, and I love how Luna was trying to jiggle her boobs too (without much success) . The Harem really came together for such spontaneous moments to appeal to their shared love interest, like they've been a well-oiled Harem dynamic all along despite the fact that they only just came together relatively recently. And, of course, Noir gets to enjoy all the perks . Boob warming, quality intimate care, and as a showstopper, a three-in-one kiss! Great job, girls . Seems like something bad went down with that nobleman's wife and daughter that caused him to become so anti-women and Harem... I would say after all the effort Noir went through to save Maria, he more than earned that kiss . So +1 Maria to the Harem, and even Luna admits she's fallen for Noir, so this Harem is slowly building itself up, much to Emma and Lola's frustration that they have more rivals to deal with . Heck, even Olivia throws herself into the ring (well, as much as she is able to) and shows some jealously at all the attention Noir is getting from girls, to where she asks him to properly kiss her. I mean, after all she's done for him, I think she deserved it and it wasn't an issue of consent...although with how her body is, I'm kind of not surprised he didn't go through with it . Alice our "well-adjusted" girl lusting after her brother once again gets her own corner at the end this week as her brother senses tingle at all the kisses Noir got that night. I wonder what's up with that sword though . That endcard of Luna and Emma in bikini's! I wouldn't mind a beach episode .

If this wasn't a Harem show, it would turn out like:
All the other girls have no choice but accept their fate and forget about Noir, as the almost highest Noble will insist on theirs being more important than theirs, not considering either Noir's nor the other cast's feelings, causing misery for everyone in the process... Just thought I should leave the realistic version of this situation here for a moment .

So I understand that Noir needed to boost his LP; hence, the harem event. However, I felt that the money could have easily been requested from the Duke to save his daughter. Then he could have boosted his LP in other ways. Well, at least it was an entertaining episode.

Surprised Olivia didn't bring up bringing the cleric that can break curses with just money to the dungeon with supper high levels of loot to have a look at her curse. Even if the amount is astronomical it might still be do able.

to be honest that harem event was more funny than I thought it would be, those guys remind of the FFF-klan from baka to test, it was hilarious.
because the opening I didn't thought another girl would join the harem, or maybe we won't see maria anymore and only occasionally. |

Especially because the suffering wouldn't necessarily be a consequence of something she does, but from social pressure. Even Noir should know that Maria can't be easily refused. That being said, her Parents would also not let her marry below her own standing so, I kinda raised a moot point here.

Emma has a future in mind of her and Noir running a shop together, probably in the most romantic way possible, but of course the rest of the Harem want in. And then Noir just bows out of the Harem's little spat because he knows there's no winning that one .
I was kind of feeling bad for Noir's dad until they reveal that he apparently gambles away most of their money. No wonder no one in his family seems to respect him to the point where not even his own daughter trusts him with their finances . I'm betting Olivia wouldn't have minded if he felt her up a little more than that . So Noir gains dungeon fast-travel, the ability to blind enemies, night-vision, and even cures a zombie! Not too shabby for one dungeon crawl . Who would have expected in this Harem adventure show we'd get such a heartfelt story between an elf and his best friend, a lion named Tigerson with a tulip on his head? Noir reuniting them and their subsequent parting was a sight to see, and in the end Noir did not only a good deed today but gained a loyal new friend in Tigerson, giving Tigerson a new friend to make up for parting from Vashelle . I hope Vashelle's love really did wait for him in those 300 years...especially if going back to her was worth leaving Tigerson . I love how the dad is freaking out but Noir's mom and Alice are so non-plussed by Tigerson. They're just cool with whatever Noir does at this point . So Tigerson's tulip is...definitely a sensitive area. And considering Noir's dad compared it to something he does with his wife, and Tigerson got all hot and bothered by Alice rubbing it, doesn't take too much to guess what it's supposed to represent . Alice sure takes care of her big brother...and has some lewd thoughts about his earwax . "The Receptionist Ranking" - Ooh! A Lola focused episode ?

However the story isn't nearly as heartfelt as you think. The actual story is much worse but they changed it

Did the elf end up dead originally? Because I see no reason to just walk away from Tigerson at the end. |

Dat tulip scene though.
I think this series needs to look up subtlety as it's clearly never heard of it lol. Isn't it sad Alice? You'll never amount to anything in the Noir races. You'll forever be a post credits scene! Well the episode was heartwarming in broad strokes, there isn't many who'd stay in a monster filled dungeon for you non stop for 350 years living off the monsters they kill to wait for their friend. Say what you want about the Tiger, but when he gives his word he keeps it. Quote:
I'm amazed Vashalle's gear is even intact after 350 years of no maintenance. But I suppose it's convenience hand waiving.
