Graduated High School in May of 2022. Summer vacation has finally arrived. I have once again regained the power of a new anime fan, being able to watch multiple anime episodes in a day. Time to binge-watch every single anime I can into the night until college arrives. SADGE. SUPER SADGE... College has begun as of Monday, August 30, 2022, so you won't be seeing me much around these parks. See you on weekends, I guess... School me is back. Sigh! I'll at least try for one anime a day with all this course load.

Such high degree of NPCness! Cid continues being hilarious.

Beta is an adorable fangirl with Shadow and I love her for it.

Not surprising that Zenon was the real culprit. Alexia was right about him all along.

Honestly don't get what everyone is angry about.
It's obviously a huge joke that the MC is a fucking idiot who without knowing founds a secret organisation that spans the entire continent.
How everything that he makes up is actually right all along.

That's just humour.

For some reason people really hate this show for that.

evil scientist is shit at his job. noooo you have to sanitize the site first! she's gonna die of sepsis :(

MC gets tortured lmao. continues to larp as a normie. epitome of weird flex but ok. something's deeply wrong with him. <3

shadow harem showed up. boring. at least do something funny! notebook girl was getting there but still. smh.
liked the fellow trapped person freeing alexia. wow just like shiso ymir. go girl kill! #based.

alexia loses to zenon. :( noooo feminism loses :(

I cant let them outshine me.. at beeing a minor character!

I am literally on the floor laughing right now, how is he so obsessed with acting like an NPC?

Alpha is back! And I still cant tell if she is just playing along or not.

Does even Cid himself take himself serious? I just cant tell.

The princess is not looking good at all.

Great episode, though it was pretty obvious that the blonde dude was the baddie. But it's always satisfying to see people like those two knights get what they deserve.

I really hope that Cid will not think the Knights who kidnapped the Princess, including her "betrothed", were all... bandits in disguise.
There is a limit to ignorance and naivety. If something is too risible to assume it is not funny, it is ridiculous.
Btw, Cid's obsession with being an average Joe background character -NPC ideally- is funny but unhealthy. Will the Princess recognize him or will this be a Superman / Clark Kent trope with a hoodie instead of glasses?

Yeah we can expect that someone like Princess Alexia would be targeted like kidnapping and stuff.
But man I gotta give it to Cid because his acting is definitely all around above the world.

This series seems to like abduction, we're just on episode 4 but there have been 3 distinct kidnappings in almost each episode, the first one back in episode 1 got abducted twice already.

Ah there's big sis, at least she's still up and about

So the Knight Order are also shit? They might be or at least a faction of them are working in league with our hypothetical villain organization.
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,

It is starting to be really good ;] I disliked the part with him being tortured, but whatever.. I guess he likes to act weak :D
The best part is that he thinks he made a good lie, but that lie likely became real and the girls know that, but he don't :D

One could possibly ask: Why they didnt do anything to search for her sister? Just wait and see?

Lets see if we can know more about the organization, because he is supposed to be his leader. We will see how they get funds, apart from what he can possibly take.
The demon had a feeling/emotion, cause he liberated the princess. She took the torture very good, i dont know if thats because she knows she can heal herself easily, or her mental health is problematic.

I think besides this chapter things are going to get interesting. Even if he wants to be in the shadows, in order to be like that, u need to have a lot lot lot of resources, just like Batman!!

Cid mobilizes shadow garden with over 100 active personnel. Meanwhile princess Alexia is drained of her royal demon blood.Alexia’s edginess or lack of emotion felt corny, so did Cid but at least his was intentional for a facade. Good to see Cid clean up the corrupt knights though, he needs to get payback for humiliation.

Ahh yes... The classic fiance of a princess who is perfect in every single way but turns out he was an evil mastermind twist!
It's a good thing all Zenon sees in Alexia is a walking, talking royal bloodbag. Nothing more, nothing less... Else, she'd lose a lot more than a few pints of blood.

Whilst Zenon and his goons work diligently undercover, Cid, the leader of an ever more underground organization, simply sit back, relax and let himself be tortured. He is only flinching simply because his interrogator acting better in character than he does. Lmao, never have I seen a character so invested in the roleplay, that he throw himself in the face of shame, ridicule and pain, mind you JUST TO ROLEPLAY! He had his sister busting her ass trying to go save her precious little brother and bro is out here thinking it was business as usual.

To make matters worse he still thinks the Shadow Garden and the Diablos are fairytales. Is this guy schizophrenic or is he so immersed with his roleplay that he's this dissatached to reality, lol. It doesn't help that his followers are so devout in his service.

This guy Cid really doesn't care about human lives, huh? If he wanted, he could've saved Alexia way sooner. Wonder how she'll react if she finds that out. But she was doing surprisingly well after being kidnapped. Maybe it's not her first time lol.

Good to know Claire actually really cares about her brother, even if she sees him as untalented and average. Maybe she's a brocon. I wouldn't put it past this series. Iris should learn something from her.

Cid really decorated his room to look as cool as possible to Beta. This fucking guy lol. Also, seems like Beta is a huge fangirl of Shadow. Inori Minase does a great job playing her. I don't really understand what Cid is trying to achieve by basically committing terrorist acts in the city, even if it's against an evil organization. I thought his whole deal was lurking in the secret? Does he want to be a secret organization that everyone knows? Lol.

So that guy who wanted to marry Alexia was the mastermind behind Alexia's kidnapping. Predictable. I was kinda hoping it wouldn't be the case. It would've been a bit more interesting then. Anyway, Kana Hanazawa is doing incredible work voicing Alexia. Her range is amazing.
