I would think that most of the issues raised here would be addressed in the upcoming episodes.
Although I would have to say, the Demon Queen isn't the only one well versed in the workings of economic warfare.

Remember, this is a BIG problem, both in terms of difficulty and sheer scale. It involves literally every sentient creature on the planet. Just because you can see what's going on doesn't mean you can come up with way to fix it. |

I'm finding episode 2 to be kind of terrible. It completely fails to attempt the first step of storytelling, which is to make the audience care. Seems like "a series of events" with no thematic or emotional connection. Quite disappointing after the skillfully crafted first episode.

Enjoying life in the countryside.
Hero and Maou relationship seems to be progressing nicely too. She was pretty awkward and girl around him when they were alone. It was nice they took in those two girls. Pretty relaxing episode.

Episode 2:
Ehehe, love how willing The Hero was to lay on the Kings lap I've seen main characters overreact way too many times when asked to do something like that but the hero just dives right on it! Kinda ironic that the maid herself said "No one in this world hates maids" and yet i'm not particularly fond of her myself Her words are true though...maids are nice That little girl is pretty cute, but I think I was drawn away from her cuteness when out of nowhere a huge freaking boar is dead behind them

Well since Horo and Lawerence is in the anime, it's all good!
This time it's about war economics eh? This ought to be interesting as war is an interesting topic for me be it the actual war or the war time era.

Seeing the second episode, I'm seeing glimpses of the various adaptations, romantic interactions, humorous boar, and serious talk about serfs and involuntary servitude.
Overall a nice and relaxing pace.

I was hoping for some teasing by Head Maid on DQ's useless meat, but we didn't get any of that sadly. Oh well. Everything was handled well enough, but I was expecting a lot more out of the introductions for Big Sis Maid and Lil Sis Maid. That particular scene was one of the most important highlights of the chapter, but the execution was rather uninspired and executed in a very stiff manner.

I would strongly disagree, especially since I had previously been re-watching Spice and Wolf II. There's a couple of moments where it's similar, sure, but most of the time it is rather distinct. In fact, I would say there's enough of a difference, in a positive manner, since just repeating the same performance would be inappropriate when the characters aren't supposed to be practically the same.
That said, I'll try to get back to commenting a little more about the actual contents once I finish with episode 2. |
