All things considered, that huge display of power went better for her than I expected. Rather than turn the country against her in fear, they roll out the red carpet.

Such a shame to see Sein leave. I look forward to what the payoff of Gorilla's story is going to end up being wherever the group meets up with Sein again.

I look forward to meeting a brand new and colorful cast of characters at this kingdom, learning their goals and dreams and then having them die in 0.5 seconds when they try to fight any of our protagonists.

Good luck to them trying to hit gold twice. One Piece felt like a miracle of an adaptation that should not have worked, but did so well.

Nice, I've heard really good things about this movie.

She can't risk Aura resisting and trying anything. The safest thing to do when she took control is immediately give an order and have Aura remove herself. It was a very cold and calculated move that I greatly respect from a storytelling perspective.

Yeah, you wouldn't want it directly into the bloodstream, you'd get a hell of a spike in T levels, and it would then dissipate much faster, which you also don't want.

Nice work of Rae to turn that damsel event into a Claire opportunity. Having her pull a Pikachu and ignore type advantages.

The way the demons are in this series, it almost feels at odds with how relaxed the characters are. It's a calm, soothing world as long as you don't mind the monsters wearing a human face while talking sweet words, out to eat you.

Those tend to be racism allegories, which is definitely not the case here.

I wasn't expecting them to cover so much of the series. Frieren fans will be dining well for the next half year.
