Episode 2

Everyone's Reactions

The title says they're starting to conquer the fortress, but seeing the village burning made me go, "Wait, really?" I was expecting something a bit more peaceful. Romelia-chan's speech was lovely, with Motone-san's crisp voice really shining through. But then she acted a little spoiled in front of the old lady, which made me feel a bit complicated—maybe she can say that because she knows deep down she won't be going back? Al's attitude was seriously annoying, and Ogawara-san's blunt acting style fit perfectly. It really showed how much a character's impression can change depending on the voice actor's approach. Anyway, shower time! The "change your clothes" comment is kind of a classic trope, but it's reassuring that she's wearing armor with high defense and not showing too much skin. Also, that "release date TBD" notice looks kinda scary when you think about it in the context of this anime... I look forward to the fantastic ED song every episode, and I really want to see more!
