Oh boy, a clash of egos and ideals in this episode. Emotions running wild and Togo is caught in the middle.

Too many goofy moments between Arvoln and Tougo still. They just had to do the bath walk in scene cause it would've eventually happened anyway. Jokes aside, I guess they wanted to build more into their relationship. The most fan service based episode for sure lmao

tbh, at this point, Shauha and Dariel are very sus.
btw, the Networking King monsters' seiyuu is Kinjo Yamato(Kyoryu Blue), another sentai alumni. He was also a Kamen Rider as well, Kamen Rider Shirowe.

Yknow,Shauha is kinda psychotic but dont seem like shes that bad after all.Times needed to change and just did what needs to be done,not out of personal gains or power trip.Tipped the scale too much to the opposite,but looks like shes willing to hear Yihdra out.

Honestly great directing on this one,some moments was done real well like Shauhas head turn and Reds switch up.Got to meet the royal family,brothers a dick but i def dont trust that Lowji lookalike.More info on Teltinas past and how her brothers death changed her.Still kinda confused what did they do if it wasnt "bond merging"? 🤔

There are actually many big reveals on Red
- He's not gonna let the misunderstanding happen
- He can understand some complicated stuffs like politics or technology, and can even make a good advise.
- He's not oblivious to romantic feeling (but despite the locked door night I don't think "bond merger" happen)
- He hides some secrets

You know your bond with someone is especially strong when you have a falling out from a misunderstanding, immediately resolve it, and BOND MERGER all in one night.

Also, destroying relationships through ruining internet connections is simultaneously the dumbest and most ingenius idea from the Breakup Forces ever. The LAN dude was lowkey cooking.

The depiction of the Emergency Teleport was hilarious, especially with Yellow still holding her food and Blue still on the phone.

Home base in season one??? Jesus, they get right down to business, fast. The censorship audio being "BOND MERGER" was also pretty funny. This show's general approach to being silly is pretty fresh.

Given how all the other shows are on a downhill trend I am enjoying this more and more. Just look at those exterior shots of the castle and town, those are usually generic horribly drawn shots that a lot of the time weren't even drawn by someone who knows about perspective let alone architecture. This was detailed right down to the grating in the windows, then even redid it covered in snow. They must have outsourced it to one of those animation studios that specialize in backgrounds, add that to the CGI and this show has quite the budget. Not only that but this show actually has a coherent plot and non generic villains and protagonists. Plus Yihdra and Red's little romance is actually cute.

Sounded like Red was speaking from experience when he suggested there was a benefit to magic being regulated.

Yihdra flies away on her broom, upset Red didn't stand by to back her up. He goes after her and suggests working together with Shau'ha.

Being taken up into space aboard Maximum Kizuna Kaiser really made an impact on Lowji. Red is going to be responsible for some massive paradigm shifts in this other world.

I like that they took the trope of rangers suddenly teleporting into battle, and gave Yihdra and Red a bathroom encounter with it

Bond energy in Red's world and mana in Yihdra's world are one and the same? That gives her all the more reason to "study" him
The word sex getting swapped for the announcer's BANSOU GATTAI 😂

Shau'ha is more of an anti-villain or anti-hero than. She believes in security over Yihdra and her father's idealistic freedom. But she also upholds the nobility. If Teltina's relatives tell her to militarize magic, she'll comply.

Seems Shau'ha has sent the adventurers on a difficult side quest in the desert. Will Yihdra be able to get on her good side and reform the restrictions she considers too harsh?

Red and Yihdra ship has legs finally 🙏🏾 all my ships are winning this weekend I love it. Great way to end the day. Yihdra finally being honest with herself about having feelings for him and I can’t say I blame her after his comments about supporting her dream. He’s such a naturally kind and sweet person.

I actually liked the philosophical argument about the regulation of the magical tools. Yihdra heart is in the right place with getting everyone able to use magic and improving their lives, but you need to have some rules in place to prevent abuse and keep people safe. Compromise is key!

Only issue is I don’t trust who they’re compromising with at all. The first prince and Shen’uah or however her name is spelt are definitely up to no good. Nothing good can come from them having control of the seeds. They need to be destroyed, not applied militarily. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Lmao at Teltiana instantly knowing something was up with Red and Yihdra after all their flirting and their bath tub rendezvous 😂 I love this cast sm. Great episode

Kinda weak episode. Pacing and scenes were a mess.
The scepter had a point though, more logical than Yidrah's one (except for the peasants overthrowing a noble with magic weapons, I don't see the problem in there).

Congrats Red and Yidrah for taking less than 5 minutes before realizing feelings to fucking, that's kinda refreshing in a shonen.

I have a bad feeling about Dariel.

The way Shau'ha touches Yihdra's cleavage is such a fanservice, then they added more.

They also teased us with their Bonding, but I doubt dude got laid.

Oi, oi oiii... They crank their "bond" up to 11. By that "Bond Merger"

Hmm, maybe those demons are intentionally letting Princess Taitana absorb those demonic seeds so she can be use as an avatar for the demon queen..?

Princess Taitana's brother really does have a dangerous ambitions...

This episode was an improvement. The already amusing Sentai out of Water with a voluptuous mage has added power politics to the story. One dimensional characters are showing some new depth. This anime may yet have some serious drama to show us.

That flying chase, mid-air tackle and snow kabodon scene was hilarious, and Yihdra's proportions were pretty wildly inconsistent during the bath scene. The overhead view with tub-filling hips made me lol, some artist had too much fun. This show never ceases to amaze and amuse me.

Epic first half, character development, and with some fan service... 😳🫣

Yihdra leaving the tower because of misunderstanding. Red chasing after her... and going into weird positions... my mind can't take it.... 😭😭😭 ( especially, the bath scene..)

The story is getting a good kind of development, and also, some terrible things. Another exciting episode, in all kinds of ways.

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

besides being a control freak, Shau'ha does not seem like a bad person.

that guy Dariel is clearly evil.. power hungry people like him will do all kinds of things to gain more power.

Lowji is amazed on the beauty of space. Well, I just hope he don't come across religious fanatics who believe in those angels beyond the blue. Would certainly be a lot of arguments if he comes across people like that.

well, this is another good episode. Looking forward to next week! :)

The bond merger bit was hilarious. So the collection of mana seeds proposed by Dariel will most likely lead to the Demon Queen making a comeback.

So the bond merger did happen right..
From the wording it seemed very very likely with those "seeing" & "exposing". Even if it's not imma believe it did.

Yihdra is one of the best girls of the season.
And Teltina not far behind.

This is genuinely one of the best Isekais to come out in last year or so..

After a brief misunderstanding between Red and Yihdra, the two of them realized their feelings for each other which lead to an intense bonding merger session after some spicy moments with them in the bath. Whether they actually did or not remains a mystery and left to ones interpretation(I don't think they did the nasty because they're awkward teenagers although the bond merger pun was funny). Shau'ha doesn't seem like a bad person just a bit of a control freak. Something tells me that something bad happened to Telitina's brother that involved the mana seeds that caused her to go destroy the mana seeds on her own and its obvious that her older brother wants to use the mana seeds to control the world. Now Red and the others are on a quest to gather the mana seeds.

This is lowkey the best isekai of the season.

ANN is doing a three part series on the History of Saban Entertainment, the company who brought us Power Rangers and to some extent anime in the early 90s that never really blew up in the West.

Wasn't very fond of the fan service in this episode ngl. I get it's a hot take for a lot but this show can do a lot without relying on that. Kinda makes this series leans on the ecchi trash isekai series than a parody on sentai/Rangers.

@Misterelist that's the thing it's not just an isekai trope but also a sentai trope. Sentai has more than its fair share of fanservice/ecchi elements despite it being a morning kids show - it's not exactly a taboo for them to do so. For example here are some bath scenes from sentai (Boukenger, Dekaranger, ToQger):







Here's a Blue ranger getting his face rubbed into Yellow Ranger's boobs in battle and gets smacked as a joke:


Here's Goseiger doing your stereotypical fanservice anime "oh no they lost their bikini top!" joke


Here's one of the more famous "sexy villaness" Zonnette from Car-ranger, note how sexualise this entire scene is:


This is why the parody sentai series Akibaranger had to make their Blue Ranger flash her panties and the villaness doing all sorts of fanservice/ecchi stuff in that show because it's a deeply ingrained sentai trope in itself - that many young boys' hormones got unknowingly awaken by watching sentai on Sunday morning cos the producers sneaked in fanservices into the show.

I absolutely love the "VERY BAD" they do every time there's a fan service scene it turns it from something meh that is already everywhere to something absolutely hilarious! Also "BOND MERGER" caught me totally off guard, sometimes censoring the swear words is actually better than saying them.

"Just don't do anything like that again." Red has a scary side.

I wasn't expecting Shau'ha to explain why she's so restrictive with magic items. The downsides that came with Yihdra's dad running things as royal scepter makes her viewpoint much more reasonable.

That bond merger gag was great. I should have known a warrior of bonds would give us such quick relationship progression.

It's interesting to see how different both Yihdra and Shau'ha's ideals are... and sometime it feels like she's shady as well.

Kizuna warp sending Tougo to Yihdra bathing and him pinning her was funny. So Tougo and Yihdra did Bond Merger last night!? And whole night at that, that Tougo couldn't sleep?

This was hiralious and um... good for eyes aswell.
