I would say good action scenes.

They can participate inraids while they're detained
and reduce their sentences!
what world is that fairwhen they roam free!
What's this?
Three billion.

It takes to kill them.
The dungeon stays in the dungeon.
Is this Vegas?

(07:08):
What
is this, the last half?
What is happening?
This is interesting in the beginning?

(07:29):
Oh already went through with it.
It's
no such luck.
'cause I was asked to make yousuffer first as much as I could.

(07:52):
What the hell's going on here?
Ah, seems the paths are connected, soif you are here, I guess that would
be the left path led to the bus there.
Thanks for the direction.
Wow.

(08:13):
Oh, he's gonna kill those two.
That, whoa!
He was only paid to justkill the first three.
But I guess he's tryingto cover his tracks.
Why are you screaming?
You've seen tons of dead people.

(08:34):
Aren't you a hunter?
Wow.
He actually murdered those people.
He wouldn't have had to, actually.

(08:58):
Why do you act like you have aconnection to the people who abandoned
you and told you to fucking die?
Isn't this weird?

(09:22):
I doubt it.
She's a healer.
Bleh.
This person tried to abandon and kill you.
Do you not remember this?
Is he friends with them now?
That's crazy.

(09:58):
I don't understand how this anime decidesto get really good, and then really bad,
and then really good, and then really bad.
Oh, I know.
They must have two different writers.
Why are you killing them?
Cause he doesn't want anyBut they didn't see him.

(10:26):
You know what I'm saying?
I Like, he killed the other twobecause he had to cover his tracks.

(11:11):
No, it's not.
Weren't you just doingthat a few days ago?
Killing the goblins.
Not only that, but he was doing it likewhen he was practicing and he had one
arm and he's Oh, why don't you get soyou've been practicing your sword work.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yes!
Yeah!
Yeah, the thing just got good.
No, what are you doing?

(11:34):
You overrated everything!
My plans!

(11:56):
You're trying to aimfor the girl, remember?
He's on his knees.
She's open.
And she's powerless!
Do it!
Do it.
No!
Not him!
No.
You're wasting time.
I love how the guy who was an S rankand could clearly kill this guy is

(12:18):
just standing by watching him get hurt.
Like, why are you notdoing anything about this?
If he dies, and you justwatched him die, that's intense.
Oh, okay, so now we'reabout to get them fighting.
Okay, but why did you let me get cut8 million times before you did that?
I would be pissed.

(13:10):
You've lived up.
Oh, you know what?
That does explain, maybehis second awakening is No,
it's not a second awakening.
No, not really.
No, because he's just leveling up, right?
Because a reawakening gives youjust a different level, just

(13:31):
not like the willy to upgrade.
I like the face, Ithink that's kinda cool.
You know where else I saw that?
Naruto.
Naruto, yeah.
Yeah, definitely Naruto.
You know where I saw that too?
Naruto.

(13:52):
What's wrong?
You scared?

(14:24):
Oh, so I guess now he's a more powerfulenemy so now he gets points for it.
That's Goku!
Goku did that in the movie!
Hey!
What is going on around here?
That was You know what?
I'm gonna say it was just a reference.
Just a homage.
Then how come I can hear you?
Exactly.
Why can I hear you?

(15:03):
No, do it!
No, Jesus Christ!
That's crazy.

Murderous intent.

You know where I sawGenjutsu like that at?

(16:53):
Never do.
How are you still talking?

(17:13):

That's like fuckingbullshit in this episode.
I'm an edgelord who wantto know what I even do.

powerful to go on the missions Yeah

(19:50):
Oh, he's taking the blame for it.

(20:13):
Oh, yeah.
Didn't you defeat like anS Level demon thing before?
Yeah.

(20:34):
I don't know, man.
There's not a whole lot to make sense.
You went in an S Rank dungeon, remember?
And defeated some of the monsters there?
Yeah.

(21:04):
Oh, whoo!
Oh, thank God.
Oh my goodness.
That's when it got close and intimate.
I thought this episode was a bit boring.
It was good, then really bad, thengood, then really bad, then good.
It was like an emotionalrollercoaster watching this.
Something cool would happenand they say something that's
just so stupid it ruins it.

(21:26):
Kills Slice, the guy, Jank's pose inthe background and he goes, It's hot.
