| The opening for this show is just way too good, best one of the season. And I like how Goku appears out of nowhere lol |

Dukino said: @Cestlavie_ Stop constantly comparing them and treat this like its own thing. Wawawawawa whiners. Author wrote something different and your pea brain can't handle it Don't be idiotic, different works from the same author are always going to be compared,and that's even besides the point, even not comparing it to the author's other work the comedy is still bad. I just made a comparison cause I know the author can write better when it comes to switching from comedy to drama. |
| Not the kind of gathering.. of loyal people that is, I was expecting lol. But that rain animation was chef's kiss. Series truly never missing when it comes to that one "standout" moment every episode. By the way, not to mention that dragon ball reference out of absolutely nowhere lol. Very serious with their comedy as ever. |

@WaterMage_658 That's the point 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️ you're not supposed to know if he's serious or not. But don't act like he didnt get very serious in this episode when stopping the rain and showing Tokiyuki his people
| @Dukino and next moment the people weren't motivated/acting. The character is way too over-dramatic ik that's the point but still it's annoying sometimes. |
| Another great episode a lot of y’all saying it was a slower paced episode like it’s bad not every anime is gonna have action packed pacing type episode yk it’s good to slow down and focus on the characters more like how this episode did nonetheless I loved this episode it was great as usual for me and near the end of the episode was action packed with them killing off the boar🔥 The boar fight was cool the transition from the boar about to get impaled in the stone to Tokiyuki stepping into the hot springs was a really cool way to show us they won the battle😩 I see a lot of y’all complaint about the comedy and tbh I do not see anything wrong with tbh the Spirit Bomb DBZ edit legit made me burst out laughing this show is hilarious to me😭 Ending was ominous as hell I wonder what they’re gonna do to my bro Goj- I mean Yorishige🧐 The rain stopping scene was amazing bro Cloverworks still going crazy with the animation even during slower episodes these guys just keep blessing our eyes man😫🔥 (laughed out loud when Yorishige told the bystanders to go home🤣🤣)     |

| This episode was slower, but I really appreciate that the quality hasn't dropped. Tokiyuki's companions make a good group, and I like that they seem unconditionally loyal to him. It's interesting that it looks like they're going to use Tokiyuki's way of running away as a fighting method. Quite intriguing.  |

| Chiller episodes which I prefer since it helps remedy that tonal whiplash from the earlier episodes + it got me a bit more attached with the main cast. |
 Never watched as much anime as I wanted to |
| I like the artwork a lot, but there too many cost cutting scenes in the animation this episode. I like the MC, and his retainers are pretty cool. But that priest/god might be even more irritating then Zenitsu. Someone slap him, please. This passes the 3 eps test with a B-, but I have some hopes this could move up into the B+ range. So I'll be hanging around for a couple more episodes at least. |
| again, nothing really worth mentioning apart from the visuals. went especially hard during that chase scene. |

| The story feels extremely clunky and unfunny. I was constantly going "???" throughout the episode. Meanwhile, the animation is still so much fun and expressive, even if the art was somewhat simplified during the raindrops and the boar chase sequences. Still really enjoyed them. I'm still not sure if I'm enjoying this overall... |

| I had to laugh at the dragonball reference. The father is a glutton. He is the comic relief. But too bad, his enemies caught on him. I don't think he will be killed because he provides the only comic relief here. It will be such a shame if it happens. |

| @Mei-o_Scarlett ye i worded that wrong i meant to just agree with you on the number of members since im avoiding the character limit lol |

So Clearly there’s gonna be a time skip or something like that based off this episode and past episodes. How long y’all think it’s gonna be? How old will the protagonist and the squad be when this story is finally over?
Random but art style and animation wise this anime is amongst the best in my opinion and can see this being known as one of the best sleeper new gen.
(Please no Manga Spoilers, unless it’s just the age)

| @Zxstu What makes you think that? |
| Honestly I think this was my favorite episode so far, aside from Tokiyuki I didn't vibe with most of the other characters yet but this episode really showed off some great dynamics |
| Read my comic pl0x :D Rockerella meets Merman |
| Tokiyuki being folllowing behind by Yorushige and the kids to his domain of the Suwa Grand Shrine, the Shinto priest sure has lots of jokes and gags prepared for him in the midst of becoming a hero to take back Ashikaga. But being raised as a puppet ruler, it only exacerbates the reason for his elusiveness, and to make things even clearer, Yorushige being a god...just makes sense of the Suwa Sect, the people who believe in such a god like the Shinto priest. In actual fact...it was all an act lols, what a gimp of an impact, I LOLed hard on Yorushige's comedy, which was frankly great. Back to the serious stuff, having Shizuku, Kojiro and Ayako as Tokiyuki's retainers (aside from the hilarious Dragon Ball spirit bomb reference), the kids are truly acting like their age, and even in their hunting, the comedy is infused into it, which is OK, until the Ox Demon Botan shows up, testing the quad's mantle as a party together, which they succeeded. Too bad that Yorushige is being a gluttony of a god. The Elusive Warriors, what a great name for a party. |
 |
| shizuku is reallly cute |
| NGL this was a boring episode. |
| is that a fcking GENKI DAMA?? LMAO |
 |
| The first 10 minutes or so I was surprised Suwa seemed a little less obnoxious and toned down, but he came roaring back in the second half. I did like the gag about use his future sight to dig holes to trap Tokiyuki, though. Some nice animation and I appreciated building a little camaraderie with the retainers. Really piled on the supernatural not just with Suwa's powers but a full on demon. The demon hunt wasn't quite up to the action of past episodes, but was still fun and it was neat to see them apply strategy on the fly to take it out. |

| @MadanielFL I didn't expect to see a reference to Goku lmao  |
| Good job with that retainer girl picking out their name and also great job on the teamwork they did planned by Shizuku to kill the boar although too bad her father ate it lol (did he really eat the whole damn boar??) Also, such a random DB reference that I was not expecting. |
| Nice DB reference, but you know, I was under the assumption this was serious show or whatever. But ig whenever Yorishige is on screen that's out the window. Nice animation as usual. Only saving grace for this tbh. |
 |
| I think this episode was meant to bring us closer to the characters, as not much actually happened. However, it remains visually interesting. |
 |
| Son Goku?? It's you?? |
| Beautiful animation and the name- " The Elusive Warrior" |
