THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Taunt skill...sounds weak to me.

I like how they discuss a variety of skills and spells. OST is pretty awesome this episode and matches the intensity I guess. Really nice to see the team work together with the elemental skills and healers. Nice.

Great episode again. Dat friend list. Rudy is so silly this episode though. Shame he couldn't be added to Isuzu's friend list...shame.

To get to know each other first and rest before continuing (or rather understand each other's skills and discussing about it before fighting effectively). The girl being the strategist, instead of one of the healers. They beat it finally. She went ahead and report that to the main guy. lol @ Kakkii's character as the dog, though that girl cannot add him to friend list (that seems suspicious. Is there a secret why?).

Pretty sure it had something to do with the database issue. Anyways, that was volume 3's ending. I hope they air some files or some sort of way to present all the monsters' statistics soon in a way in the future.

Now I feel like this is a copy cat of light novel, feel like it move the same as it did on light novel.
I guess it just because I recently start reading on light novel.
This expecting were the same from LN.

It's all nice to see Minori take the courage to tell them all this, she will become a good tactic as she admire Shirou.
Everything got all real and we haven't forgot about our adorable Lennesia, wasn't so much of a screentime but she was there.

This episode feel like a great progress for Minori and rest of party member.

Really nice episode.

The first half with how they discussed their skills together and became a true team finally beating those skeletons was really enjoyable. Awesome team work.

Minori reporting to Shiroe about their adventure and his reactions was a really nice scene. I felt like he was laughing out of Nostalgia for the old days when he used to conquer dungeons with the Tea party and went through all those different experiences :D

Lol'd at how they keep talking bad about Rudy and about how he's an idiot handsome lame guy XD...Isuzu thinking he's a Golden retriever was funny XD

I'm not an LN reader but I guess he's already lost his memories of being an adventurer and thinks he's a person of the land. But I was pretty surprised that just thinking u're a person of the land will block u from the Database?? This is if my theory is correct though ^^;...If not then there's something I'm missing.

Glad to see Dere Lenessia "Do as u like" even if for a bit <3

The end was intense as hell!! I wonder what caused all those Demi-Human fish to attack like that O_O?? No matter how OP u may be I don't think beating them will be an easy task with those numbers. (Lol'd at the Asura fish in the in-between of the ep XD)

Can't wait for nxt ep. This is gonna get good :D

Rudy the dog. I wonder what was with him in that last scene.

Although an army of monsters suddenly surging in from the sea might stop us from finding out.

LMAO I'm dying here. So that's why I feel like I want to pat Rudy's head whenever I see him...he's a dog! AHAHAHAHAHA! Wow that makes sense now. What an elegant dog XD

Oho...can't add him to the friends list? Cat (or should I say dog) is almost out of the bag Rudy :p

"We just need to talk to one another and work things out."
See this is why random PUGs almost never work out well. They don't want to talk nor listen. In the end, the kids figured out how to work as a unit. Random PUGs no more :)

Support ftw. Bards unite. Serara with a cat plushie was so adorable :D

I haven't played an MMO in a while so when Shiroe said "pulling", my heart skipped a beat. Oh how I love that term.

The first 18 or so minutes of this episode was calm...and then boom! There's the storm. Fish dudes invasion. Reminds me of that one arc in Freezing.

I didn't like this episode very much. All those kids talking about skills was boring. Skipped those parts. All in all there wasn't much new to learn from this episode just towards the end it picks things up again. Next Ep is going to be awesome for sure.

I love that scene when they were learning each other's skills... thats basic and essential in a party.. damn this anime brings out the gamer in me...

I do not support romance between side characters... and because this is not a harem, when it comes to romance I only want to see Shiroe X Akatsuki.

Why can't that girl add Rudy to her friend's list?? well its either his friends list was full or..... hes an NPC!

dat another cliffhanger ending..

I think first of all, people should stray away with the idea that Players become People of the Land if they lose their memories. That's clearly not how it works.

When a player dies, some parts of information from his Anima (in this case, his EXP which also equals his memories) are not perfectly recovered. That's the "penalty" concept of the game which has sadly become a drawback after the third World Fraction. However, I believe that's all there is to it- just a penalty.

An Adventurer no matter how many times he dies and EXP he loses, wouldn't suddenly have his/her character type demoted into a People of the Land. Well for now, the only types of characters that were introduced are Adventurer, People of the Land, Precursor, Demi-human, Monster (not really sure if they're also demi-humans, but this could include Dragons, etc.), and animals (not sure if they're considered monsters such as the deer that they hunted before, but there are also those horses and griffons that are called by flute). Even People of the Land have their own memories and they were clearly in the game even before the players arrived. Same goes for the precursors (they were there even before the 2nd World Fraction). Hence, it's clear the People of the Land do not originate from players.

The pace is just right.

I'm glad Minori decided to stand up, say what she needed to and get to know everyone's spells and skills. I really like Rudy, he might be stupid but at least he is quite funny and isn't completely arrogant.

My guess is that it's a database issue that's why Rudy can't be added to Usuzu's friend list. I doubt Rudy will go from adventurer to People of the Land, even if his name Randaul Haus sounds like People of the Land. If Rudy's friend list was full why didn't it say friend list full, assuming there's a limit to how many friends you can have. I haven't read the VN, but I think not being able to add friends and fish army appearing are somehow connected.

No Akatsuki this episode, that's a bummer. Well at least Minori and the group got past the dungeon, but now they have to be on alert.

i guess rundel haus can't be added since he's neither an adventurer or one of the people from the land, but a sorcerer like it was shown last episode. dang we have to wait another week to find out :<
and a huge fight is coming.
the part with rudy as a dog was hilarious.

Could Rudy be a Data Anomaly or program like Aura ( .hack//series) ?? Maybe AIDA (.hack//games)

Maybe a glitch in the system of Elder Tale??

Izusu could not add him to her friend list. Plus their was a glitch.

About the debate is rundel haus a person of the land or not, my guess is : if he got xp from killing monsters ( and I think the team would have noticed that he didn't level up ) then for me the theory that when you die too much you turn as a hybrid between adventurer and person of the land : you can still xp, learn new skills etc but since you don't have memories, you can't use the UI and thus can't be added to the FL.

If he didn't get xp, he is a person of the land from scratch IMO.

Taunt skill...sounds weak to me.



NO. Its very Effective.......

If you played most MMORPG's with a role of a Tanker or Warrior Class......

I believe taunting skills are very effective in dungeoning and party raids...

For Example.

Ragnarok Online's Knights/Crusaders use the skill called "PROVOKE" which is a TAUNT SKILL with no damage but pure provocation.

But it decreases enemy's defense which is very useful in any kind of battles.....

I wonder why Rudy can't be added to the friends list. I hope their not gonna say something like people of the land are starting to become adventurers(cause you probably can't add people of the land to your friends list) or Rudy is the side effect of the Apocalypse. IDK, you can ignore my suggestion just now, I actually don't think it'll be something like that, I just really think this friends list thing is a big plot development like the memory thing. I also think that it would be interesting if Rudy was a humanoid boss in a dugeon that was gonna come out in the Northsphere(thats what its called right?) thing and he like the people of the land also has feeling and stuff and left the dungeon and joined the adventurers. I just think thats a fun idea.

With how low hp the monsters in them dungeons seem to have it would be more efficient to stack classes like the sorcerer. And sorcerers can even freeze enemies, so you could easily keep anything locked down while doing massive damage to them with a few sorcerers rotating their spells. : |

Either that or Isuzu's friend list is full and she just needs to pay 123456789 gold to expand her list.

That huge wave of fish monsters! Epic fight on the way.
I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN
