I wonder what took Commie so long. (I see they were inactive for a while).
I watched a speedsubs some time ago that was pretty bad so I didn't bother posting about it.
I can't quite remember what happened, but I remember thinking that it wouldn't have been too bad if we dwelled on Roland's takeover a bit more and went back to treasure hunting a bit later.
I find Ferris' "Because I'm beautiful" lines pretty funny.
They're funny cuz they're true.

Saw a stream of ep 6.... Tsundere!!!
Yeah, I find her character design really successful, too. Her personality is anything but beautiful, though.Originally Posted by Buffalobiian
Episode 6v2 - Derp

The politics are starting to get really dirty in this show. And I love it! Kind of reminds me of Guin. Too bad we didn't actually learn whether Shion also wanted Toaru dead. In any case an especially funny was how Froaude ended up fighting Ryner and Ferris. Good thing his ring's significance was revealed already because I was getting sick of the scenes purposefully showing him blinking it.
Ryner is too good a fellow for not claiming a little payback when Ferris fell unconscious in his arms. You'd think after all that abuse he would bear even a tiny grudge.
Ferris is turning out be too much of an annoying cunt for me to bear, i hope they redeem her character soon

It's just too troublesome for him. He wanted to get some sleep as soon as possible.
Ferris is one tough broad. I thought she was gonna be down for a while with that back wound, but she was back up in no time. I was hoping to see Ryner and Froaude go at it one on one while she was down, but it didn't happen. I would love to see Ryner snap and kill him with the Alpha Stigma.

What makes you so sure that Ryner didn't do anything when he was treating her wound?
Peace.
Because we didn't see anything, nothing was suggested, and everything was as usual afterwards.
Unless a doujin depicting the whole treatment is released, it's safer to assume nothing happened. Like Marik said, it would have been too troublesome for him. The first instance his laziness annoyed me, haha.
For the sole reason that I'm enjoying Ferris' appearance and receiving zero punishment from her personality, I love watching her, particularly the scenes where she appears slimmer with her armour off.
I thought it was exceptionally funny how the first thing she did after she got back up was punch Ryner in the face.
I agree with you about the politics and the Guin comparison - and this time we don't have to start with a pussy of a prince.
It seemed a tad strange that Alpha Stigma would hurt when Froaude was casting, but didn't hurt later when he was simply observing. One would expect the effect to be consistent.
Sion might really turn out to be the antagonist of this series if he keeps up his "I can't be wrong" mentality. Not that I'd mind it too much.

His eyes were probably just not used to it the first time.
I wasn't serious about Ryner doing anything to Ferris.
Peace.
Ferris is mad hot but I'm have trouble taking her seriously with the way her 'personality' has been displayed. All I've seen her show any passion for is dumplings, screwing with Ryner, and obeying her brother. She goes well out of her way with respect to the first two which makes me wonder if she's compensating for something or if she's just that vapid and uncaring by nature.
This episode had a glimmer of hope for me near the end when Ferris looked like she might possibly intimate that she somewhat appreciated Ryner not leaving her to bleed to death in the middle of that field. But Ryner, being the ultimate ladies man that he is, seemed to perceive this, acknowledge it with a look of his own, and diffuse the tension of the situation effortlessly. I think this left the proud and stubborn Ferris little cause to reflect on the way she behaves and perhaps develop some more normal social skills with him. While I applaud Ryner for deftly handling the situation without inflicting any overt harm to her ego I didn't like how it strengthened the image of Ferris as being too emotionally weak to openly admit gratitude or give any respect to Ryner despite him earning at least some. That said I suppose it would be somewhat different if she really did have little to no development over the course of the story and continued to simply be self-absorbed and violent for no reason beyond a lack of empathy or compassion.
Episode 7 - Derp

A somewhat comedic episode, all in all. Though naturally mixing bloodier elements in as is this show's nature. The whole hunt for the legendary artefact has so far been so... unimpressive that it's hard to view it as a major part of this show. Sion's politics and troubles with the country seem much more meaningful. Especially with Ryner being so lazy he wouldn't want to do anything at all and Ferris being so sadistic she wouldn't want to do anything but torment Ryner.
Hard to see where this show is going if it continues like this for too long.

Episode 8 - Derp
If Taka is indeed doing the series, then it means there's at last a version worth archiving. Derp is barely good enough for watching.

No worries. That much energy is spent quickly in beating Ryner. I'd be more worried about Ryner's finances: He owns nothing but the clothes he's wearing yet he's supposed to pay for a truckload of dango?
This episode also verified (as if it needed such) that Iris is just as crazy as her older sister and brother. The family must have accumulated some really bad genes as well in addition to the good ones that allow them to fight like devils.
The entire time they were calling Lucile "scary", he was probably watching (and smiling.. always smiling).
I was under the impression that Ryner's expenses were coming from Sion. There's no way someone liked him worked up any savings.

I'd be tempted to wonder how long Sion is going to be financing the lazy escapades of those two, but I guess when he received the dagger report, he thought they might still be worth it. Even if he needs to tell them to actually go and secure the dagger, not just throw it away and escape.
The foolishness and comedy surrounding everything Ryner and Ferris do is truly in stark contrast with all the morbid politics going on elsewhere. Maybe that's actually why Sion keeps funding them: Reading their reports (drawn by Iris) must be a real breather compared to the oft vile decisions he must otherwise endure all the time.
It seemed to me like the audio and video were a little desynced in the episode.
Otherwise it was certainly interesting. Those pink siblings were quite mofos after all, already possessing relics and looking for more, plus knowing full well how to use them. But of course they were entirely unprepared for the power of Ryner's apocalypse mode.
Now I'm looking forward to the next episode to see if Ferris starts to treat Ryner any differently after witnessing first hand how dangerous he can become. To be entirely honest Ferris's fighting skills against the relic wielding chick disappointed me. She seemed quite powerful based on the earlier fights but clearly she needs a relic weapon of her own to power up.
