    Wouldn't it actually be praise for the show in this case? If people didn't care for it, no one would even discuss anything.

    Wasn't their official plan to lure the dragon in with the jets, bombard it with tanks while it's flying low and rain arty on it when it's on the ground and finish it off with c4?

    Just to add something to the discussion.
    You could say these missles were supposed to get it's attention.

    btw i have to thank this anime. When I learned kanji for my Japanese test today, I chose to get the kanji for "itami" (pain) down. No idea if thatīs the kanji for Itamiīs name, probably not, but it motivated me to learn it, and it came up in the test

    Episode 18 - HS



    - - - - -



    Just who is in charge of that place? Certainly it didn't seem to be the emperor, nor the incompetent crown prince. Is it a slave girl raped every night, with her underling of an orc who somehow is allowed to freely roam the place and even access the emperor's drinks? But then again, from a modern perspective all that sort of stuff looks silly, but in reality it's not only technology and science that develop over the centuries, common sense itself does as well.

    Aside from how useless the empire is made to look, this was quite an amusing episode. I gladly welcome Lelei character development for sure. She's cute. Sugawara's suffering was also comedic to watch.

    Weren't poison testers standard for royalty in these settings?

    The smart twelve-year-old girl development was hard to believe. Why? Because she was dumb enough to fall for Sugawara and his pearls in the first place. It makes no sense for her to suddenly be smart and mature now. Writing this kind of character twists requires proper foreshadowing and logical consistency. This has none of those.

    That green pig makes no sense. Don't they have guards in that place?

    Pina's intelligence is so hard to gauge because it fluctuates too much. One moment she's cunning and perceptive, the other she's as dumb as bricks.

    I like the fact that the crown prince "claims" to have not fought back against Master Jedi Shino, but we all know that even if he did, the force would not be with him.

    Sigh. Watching this has become really hard. I could stop every single minute and write a complaint. Iīll focus on one, though:

    Could these idiots PLEASE stop calling this "peace talks"?! It is not! The moment the Empire decided to not obeye the JSDFīs demands, the JSDF would forcibly make their ways. Nothing about this is peace, nothing about it is "talks". Itīs villainous occupation, covered behind lots of smiles.
    Now, I could understand all the high-up people involved her doing that intentionally to keep their pride in face of the common folks. But we clearly see Pina, the king and others to honestly believe that these are "peace talks".

    On to happier topics: I loved everything involving the prince! He doesnīt have this typical aura of a dumb loser surrounding him (yet), so thereīs potential for him to become a true threat to the JSF. I loved how he honestly cared about the return of his men - means that heīs not some 2dimensional hateface. And the look on his face when his father died, showed that he had no involvement in the poisoning, yet instantly realized the arrising opportunity.
    It all depends on his general awareness now. Can he realize what his hot cumdump is up to? Is he capable of clever plans by himself? And what about his personal ability? Again, there is a lot of potential for him, but he has to be careful.

    Btw what was that shit when Itamiīs superior told him he got some girl as a reward? All of sudden, Japanīs superior laws donīt matter anymore? Aha.

    And lol @ the 12-year old bride. Anime gonna anime.

    The way he delivered that line felt so confident, it honestly made me confused. Iīm 95% sure that he couldnīt have fought back even if he tried to, but the way he said/thought that ... I dunno. And oh god, itīd feel so satisfying if the prince at some point got to punch the shit out of Jedi girl.

    Of course they are proper peace talks. In that world peace normally meant one side of the war had burned down, enslaved, and robbed blind the other side. Just like what happened to the bunny people. Now the empire, however, has a chance to get out of the war they started but practically lost by only paying compensation money, which is also open to negotiations. Japan can't very well follow the traditions of that world since the Japanese voters wouldn't approve of razing the empire to the ground and dispersing the people (since Japanese laws don't allow slavery).

    The prince is a muscle brained idiot who actually wants to continue the war against the Japanese. The same idiot who leaves the bitter slave bunny princess to her own devices and even allows the bunny ex-princess to have that ugly orc as her servant. A bloody slave possessing an assassin servant. That's the kind of idiot the prince is. I hope he dies soon. It's a small miracle he has managed to stay alive for so long. Pina should get rid of her and make herself an empress. She might be able to save her hopeless people.

    Itami's superior told Itami that the dark elf tribe had given the chick to Itami. It has nothing to do with the Japanese, who certainly won't acknowledge the ownership, which is why the generalissimo told Itami not to do anything illegal.

    You don't anymore even watch the same show as the rest of us with your hate filter glasses on.

    The prince is an idiot for continuing the war against the Japanese? How so?! It is only reasonable to not give up in the appearance of an evil foe. From their perspective, the prince is the hero of this show, a rebel giving his all to win against an evil enemy that is all-powerful and without mercy for those that oppose them. I donīt see ANY wrong with fighting against this. And the prince seems smart enough to not just attack "Sugawara-sama" out of blind hatred. Actually, the whole way he interacts with his men made him look truely sympathetic. I cannot wait for his future course of action and I hope heīs at least semi-successfuly, because goddam the JSDF deserves something bad happening to them.

    I'm stuck here figuring out whether you're referring to this episode, or MFauli.

    I can't come to an answer!

    So, youīre resorting to ad homines instead of engaging in discussion. Okay.

    I've been asking people to do that for ages. Finally, they listen.

    I want to know what Krayz33 meant.

    Discuss away. This is entertaining. I'm waiting to see if the prince can pull off as much as he thinks he can.

    Well, I'm catching up with this series now.

    Just finished episode 14 and went to look at the impressions in this thread.

    Good job guys ruining what has been one of the most awesome scene in this series so far, with some sort of fantasy of how war works nonsense.

    It certainly proved that I don't want to watch any kind of movie with you guys, so he has a point .

    I wonder if I should answer Buff's question, hmmmm.
