Castle siege episode.
>>290691875Get that dumb pinkshit out of the frame.
>>290691947>dark elves depicted as the villains againBoring
>>290691904cute!
>>290692059funny to me how they even have time to spare for sudden dark elf exposition when every battle and fight is ridiculously compressed and sped up already
>>290693042It's an important exposition.
>>290692189this was a big brain moment, i thought he was letting the demon teleport for free
I'm bothered they didn't use Dogora's axe from the manga. He has so much swag imo, and his axe looked cool asf.
>>290692367>>290692399>>290692425Sexy hag uoooooooooooh
Riiight
>>290693393The victors write history after all.
The fuck
>>290693393My feelings when I first read this in the manga.
>>290693552Seriously someone tell us which fucking imbecile is translating this show. Motherfucker deserves death threats.
>>290693042there's always time for racism
>>290693393>remember the kino Milim backstory from Slime Tensei? >yeah, do this flashback in that storybook style as well but make it look like made by a 5-year old who just learned how to use Paint
>>290693552Chuckles McGee sounds fine to me. What's the problem?
>>290693584I liked it...
Stitches.
>>290691815I've been hearing these sounds since last episode, is it just me?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oTUvjgvVWE
I NEED to have sex with the lolibaba erufu.
Last stitch.
I swear these awakened skills always sound ultra broken
>>290693579Even their extra skills are racist
Every time this guy shows up he looks like he's about to betray the entire party
>>290692612Pink's brain working at 200% capacity! She's going to overheat!
>>290694209Isn't that just 50% more damage?
>>290693899>>290693916>notices Allen>understands the situation>prioritizes getting the intel home>gives his life for the cause and completes his objectiveFinally a competent antagonist, I am satisfied
Yuushabros...
Elf incompetence knows no bounds
Not even mad about this
krena is carrying this show
>>290694389enough to fool a demon
>>290694084Shit they baited me with the hair shot, I thought we were getting a sexo evil demon woman
what kind of jobbers are fighting in the actual war if this is how easily he cleans out millions of them?
Cute
>>290693802The audio was super unsynced during the battle today, wasn't it?
>>290694463Elves just aren't very good at critical thinking
Purplewife
>>290694463300K is how many were said to be at that stronghold. I don't deny that's a lot, 6 times their numbers.
QUALITY purplewife
>how would we best organize our defenses of this fortress?>just cover every surface with monsters in square formations and don't have them react to anythingthe demons aren't sending their best
>>290694791>300K is how many were said to be at that stronghold.yeah, and they already killed 400K before.and both of those were basically just exp farming trips so the 1M and 3M armies will most likely suffer the same fate
>>290694463the demons have a bunch of B+ class monsters as we saw in the village it takes a commander type who fought on the frontline to deal with those monsters.
>>290694862>yeah, and they already killed 400K before.Oh, you mean across the war, not in just today's battle. They were able to use petit meteor and more dragons at the time. I think that was over a few days too iirc. Still a huge number though.>the 1M and 3M armies will most likely suffer the same fatePrior to getting deputize I don't think Allen could handle that 1M. Maybe with enough time, but Idk if they have that.
>>290693393>>290693444So there's like an island at the south full of prime dark elf pussy?
>>290694879According to the last thread, a single elven unit was stronger than 99% of the units in the demon army (1on1). How the elves lost is kinda mysterious.
>>290694813Is not like their attack patterns were that good either, demons are playing a game of numbers.
>>290695043>a single elven unit was stronger than 99% of the units in the demon army (1on1)Elven propaganda next they will claim Dark Elves are behind the invasion.
I know I'm a retard for expecting this, but I thought we'd finally get a long and cool siege with proper tactics rooted somewhat in sense or logic. After the school arc started, it was just never going to get better at any point right? What a fucking waste.

In the WN/LN we still haven't really seen them do so yet, though chapter 189 finally explains how Sophie's Spirit Mage class works and shows her stats for the first time. Volmaar's stats and powers were first shown and explained in chapter 186. Neither of them have really done any kind of fighting in the WN/LN yet at this point.Also, the history of the Dark Elves was originally told in chapter 196, the manga moved in to earlier and the anime followed suit. This change doesn't really make much sense, this is the elves' dark history, and Allen had to push really hard to have it explained to him in the WN/LN - here Sophie just spills the beans for no real reason.
>>290695169Sieges never last long when magic is involved. If you wanted a long siege then you'd have to watch/read a medieval anime with no magical powers involved.Also, we learned that Nest is going to get invaded by a million monsters in 3 days so there's no way they had time to take the castle the "right" way.
>>290695194>In the WN/LN we still haven't really seen them do so yet,Huh doesn't she do so all the time in the LN? She's basically just a buffer in the LN anyway with her job being just the dedicated buff stacker.
>>290695169But that's what happened? The siege worked as a distraction while they used the classic "sewer invasion" tactic to get inside and let everyone else in, and I was afraid that they would just solve everything by dropping a nuke.
>>290695271>and I was afraid that they would just solve everything by dropping a nuke.They sort of can't because they needed the castle intact to use it. Eradicating the castle from existence would be awfully stupid of them because it's an Elven castle on Elven country not some demonic stronghold.
>>290695252Nope. First time we see her do anything useful in a fight at all is in chapter 203, when she summons Ifrit to assrape a bunch of monsters.
>>290695337Idk, in the LN she's always buffing the party because she gains very useful skills and extremely important buffs after the rohzenheim arc and she's always shown using the buffs in pretty much every fight ever they're in.
>>290695368But we're still in that arc now.
>>290694366Elixir syndrome ruins another player
>>290693042>>290695194Well that explains it.
>>290695169>but I thought we'd finally get a long and cool siege>>290695271>The siege worked as a distractionJust for clarity, a siege is when you prevent the garrison (those under siege) from being able to enter or leave or to be able to get supplies. You're kinda trying to starve them out or tire them out or something.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SiegeWhen you attack it like they did today, I believe that's an assault. Allen's crew was infiltration.
Nice capital
>>290695414I thought you meant haven't seen her do anything useful in current LN, not at this point in time for the LN. Yeah, this arc is meant to be Sophie's character arc so of course her development and stuff happens here.
>10 billion xp to level upsosoruze, kore wa...
>>290695455Well it took two days, and the objective was to hold them and tire them during that time, I think it counts but I'm not an expert anyways.
>>290695530maplestory probably has worse level requirements to be quite honest
>dark skinned individuals causing problemsoy, this is pretty racist...
>>290695621i bet those heathens have dark skin because their ancestors didn't see the two trees.
>>290695539Tire them out to the point they want to give up or don't have any more resources to fight or defend with. A siege is one of the things one does when fighting them wouldn't work. The kinda thing that might take months or even years.
The war stuff is super interesting to me but its going by so fast on screen. I'm making the jump!
>>290695455>Just for clarityjust for clarity, sieges were a solved game back around vauban's writings. and they involved safely getting close to the walls and overcoming them, not waiting indefinitely.
>>290695982where did those fat elf milkers come from
