Plot convenience - The animation. Half of the episode has been just him not using the sword that cuts space and time, before he realizes he can cut space and time. Did japan get new fetish going on recently towards impossibly stupid main characters.

Trapped girl is a threat? On no account should security system try to kill her, naah, try to capture her from an angle where MC can see everything. Good thing MC got the most powerful sword for no other reason than it's the plot and that is just the right thing that can defeat this daemon who doesn't know how angles works. Oh, what's that sword cut through space giving them chance to escape. Good thing it did that only the second time and not the first. MC doesn't know where they are located, ah, good thing his truck is parked just outside.

Imagine having ability to do spells which melt stone and at the same time begin stupid enough not to realize you can warm up water. Oh what's that monsters are attacking, good thing they repelled them all in two moves, while they stupidly observe that they can't believe humanity has been pushed this far by demons.

Incredibly stupid plot line.
@MeanEYE The show has a number of issues so far... But to address some of your points since I don't think it is entirely fair

1) He doesn't really know how to use the sword's super powers nor that it can cut space and time. That's because the weapon based on the voice severes fate. So probably more like changing the future. What that really means, we are all clueless about and so is the MC

2) Not sure what you even mean about the second part. What security system? And what capture 'her'? Also trapped girl wasn't a threat? At least the MC didn't deem her so considering she's unconscious and trapped...

3) The space cutting thing likely isn't space cutting? Once again we don't know what the sword's power is. But if its fate manipulation, then it likely wasn't spacetime cutting and just changed their fate so they can escape which is consistent with it canceling Rinne's spell. The sword is a deus ex machina though, just that its power so far isn't provably inconsistent.

4) He drove there last episode so of course the truck is outside... You did watch last episode right?

This doesn't seem to be going in the direction I hoped. I found this episode a lot more boring than the last one, and I'm not excited by the new character, Rinne. We'll see if the next ep can impress me.

2. The monster that appeared from the rift said "Fate singularity entity ????? has awakened. Threat level to new world determined as "worst". Commence removal of Last Risers seal". To me that sounds like a robot and automated system, hence me calling it security system since it activated the moment she was free;

4. I have watched the episode and I also noticed that he had no clue where he was. He also cut a rift open with his sword through which they passed. He was also teleported up the spire and he had no clue where he was there either. It's silly to assume passing to portal does nothing other than put you on the other side of the wall. Therefore I claimed it's convenient that car was just right there after being teleported so many times.

And I also find extremely stupid the idea of her being able to hide her wings and in previous episode being tied to them. Why not just hide and show and voila, no more chains on wings. It's also extremely stupid that only wings can be hidden. Why not arms as well. There are too may flaws to count and point out. Whole thing barely holds together.

I'm having trouble with this series so far. There are a lot of interesting concepts being thrown out there, but it also feels like this adaptation is skipping a lot of the source material and leaving gigantic plot and/or logic holes in its wake.

There's just a bunch of stuff that feels like the explanations were left on the cutting room floor, or else things that are plain stupid.

1. Jeanne is a woman passing as a man: putting character design that isn't fooling anyone aside, why does that even matter? Why are they making a point of it? Why is protag-kun so worked up over it?

2. Our MC shows up out of nowhere, no one has any idea who he is, and he's carrying weapons that very clearly don't exist in this world. There's no interrogation, there's no effort to confirm his story; they just give him a room and suddenly he's out on patrol with his two friends from the original world who have no idea who he is.

3. The MC shows up with a woman who is abnormally skittish around everyone. There's no question who she is, they just let her bunk with the MC as if this is an everyday occurrence.

4. After what appears to be years of living in peace (one would assume, due the level of development of the underground city) demons just happen to find the place like two days after these two strangers roll into town, and the MC and wing woman (I haven't bothered learning their names yet) are somehow not immediately suspected as being spies? Instead, the leader of these people reveals her "super secret" (which again, character design that ain't fooling anyone aside, why is it a secret?) and says "hey, let's work together!" It's as if these underground humans have zero survival instinct.

And don't even get me started on how they pound the same plot points over and over and over again, just in case the audience wasn't paying attention to the last 17 times it was pointed out.

It does seem like there's an intriguing mystery here (this is either a multiversal story where the MC is this universe's Sid; or it's a time travel story and he actually is Sid), but the execution is really rushed and sloppy. I'm hoping the next couple of episodes slow down to give us some explanations, but I'm on the verge of dropping this one.

Rinne is a waifu. Looks like it'll be one race, one arc type of thing.

If I had a nickel for every crossdresser in this season, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but weird that it's happened twice.

Um... what? LOL?

MC un-chained the angel-girl that was asking for help... immediately 3 sec later she starts blasting at MC... what? (is she NA cop trained?)

.

Yea, I really think this whole thing is more or less a "memory change" instead of a full "time rewind" that changed History.

Since there are bunch of things from the "old timeline" that still exists in this "new timeline" when they really shouldn't. (including flash-memories and conditioned habits)

Sid isn't here, cause he's already dead a long time ago back in the OG timeline. (such as the angel-girl sorta remembers the OG history with a human hero arriving, seems like she was captured right before Sid went ham on the other races, so angel-girl didn't know what happened to the world below or the "change" afterwards)

.

This episode is the weakest link of the season (for now). They don't even have a proper OP, just using images of episode 1 for the intro.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I hope there is a reason for this
@FukaTouki ... Wait you're right LOL I didn't even notice that when I watched because I just zoned out while watching it.

Tbh, I zoned out through the entire episode 😅 I think I'm going to drop this one here

After finding Sid's sword, Code Holder, for some reason he moved to another place (or even dimension). There he met Rinne, a creature that looked like a human but had wings. Rinne was tied with chains to a wall so Kai released her.

Then, they met a creature that seemed to be one of the strong demons. They were forced to fight him, but then decided to run away. With the power of Sid's sword, Kai and Rinne moved again to the place/dimension where Kai found Sid's sword.

Kai and Rinne return to the city of the human race. Suddenly, their city was attacked by demons from various directions, which caused all humans to evacuate. Of course, because he is a member of the rebel (defense) army, Kai joined in fighting the attacking demons. Seeing Kai joining the war, Rinne decided to help too.

The "small war" was won by the human race because the number of demons wasn't too many. Then, Jeanne and Falin talked about strategies to defeat the demons with Kai and Rinne. Kai and Rinne decided to take on The Dark Empress Vanessa, the hero of the demons themselves. Let's see how the two of them do that...

I don't get it ... Jeanne being a girl was supposed to be a secret? Like, her walking around like she did in episode 1 and 2 was ... tricking people? :/ And "Jeanne", a 100% female name? wat

If you haven't watched "Fantastic Children", don't talk about "best anime". Thank you.

I like Rinne already, she's ditzy but she's not stupid. I hope she is as strong as she says or this plan is screwed.

Rinne's cute, she already warmed upto Kai. Jeanne from this timeline is gonna fall for him too? Don't like how they are saying they will reclaim the palace when Kai and Rinne will do the work.

Bit confused as to why she needs to pretend to be a man to be the commander in this anime. Second, not liking that all the battle harden women including Rinne seem to turn into wimpy and incompetent the moment Kai shows up. Rinne has faced down Vanessa and a host of demons but the moment she meets Kai she is all scared and need protection. Hurts my head.
