You can watch it on YouTube Channel "Ani-One Asia".

Though you might have to use a VPN through Asian route, as it's region locked. VPN through these might work (though don't use Chinese VPN, as you might get Chinese Subs instead)

I binge watched the last 5 eps, and the development in the last 3 have been pretty entertaining. It was kind of obvious as they headed further and further into the snow that he'd "turn" on them, as the dialogue was leading up to such a conclusion. Even though they were a bit slow to come around, I loved the anguish on the generals faces as they come to terms with the situation. They finally steeled themselves to fight, though I wish there was more cohesion between all of them; since some of the generals got the resolve to fight him quicker than others, it ended up being 2 or 1 vs 1 most of the time instead of 5 vs 1. The buildup of emotion displayed by Leo and Echidna as he was sealed felt pretty genuine and relatable, since it was built up well during the course of the story(much better than, say, Tate's recent episodes =0v). Though one can say his "betrayal" was a bit of a heel-turn, I personally liked the direction it took.

Its obvious that he won't die, esp since he just got flesh wounds and not deep stabs in the heart or decapitation of limbs/head, but regardless of how cheesy his comeback/survival is, as the climax of this arc(ep 10/11), I thought was well done. Now just more curious how the stone will be used without killing him.

Power of friendship saves everyone in the end.

Not the greatest series of the season but a pretty fun watch overall. I have mixed feelings on one volume adaptations with anime original padding but it worked really well here. Probably a solid 7/10 or so.

It did hurt to see lily cry like that, but everything ended on a happy note.

7/10.

Started in mostly comedy but by the end became something a bit more existential. Was a nice change of pace from what you'd normally expect out of a 'hero' show.

7/10

edit: looks like we've got more:

Wish Shield Hero Season 2 did something like this, instead of rushing and randomly changing stuff.

I think you might be the only person who wanted an entire season dedicated to Spirit Turtle.

I'm glad HiDive picked up the OVA but it sounds like its basically a fanservice episode. Can't really complain about more Echidna tail porn though.

Not really, but i wanted more explanation, and not the amount of rush they did.
There was no build-up or proper explanation of the characters introduced at the start, and they skipped parts about Naofumi learning new magical skills from other sources.
They even skipped a lot of aspects of the Spirit Tortoise Familiar's (like its parasitic nature, and how it affected few of Naofumi's people).

Well the first ED finally makes sense, walking through a forest with Echidna and the gang all buddy like.

serenade_beta そのおっぱいで13才 Join Date: Dec 2006	Spoiler for final thoughts: 4/10 Dang... That was so boring The content felt like 3 episodes dragged into 1-cour And even though it primarily revolved around the Hero giving advice to the other characters, it never really felt like he was smart, but that everyone else around him was god-dang stupid And the final arc didn't work, since the build-up sure did not make me want to care about his sob story or his traumas or whatever It's not saying much, but the scenes where Echidna blushes was probably more entertaining to watch than everything else combined __________________ -Blog --> http://tdnshumi.blogspot.com/ (Mainly about video games) -R.I.P.
