Noor becoming an apprentice seems like a safe way for him to progress his character. He also got challenged to a mock fight this episode but I have a feeling it won't be his last.

Not going to lie, but I'm starting to find Lynne more annoying this episode than the previous two.

After seeing what Lynne is capable of I'm dumbfounded about how she was struggling so much with minotauros in the first episode. Or was she too scared to do anything?

I found the ongoing joke in ep 2 pretty annoying so I thought I wouldn't go past ep 3, but now I will watch on bc it turned out to be a good episode.
The fight with spear guy and his whole thought process were really enjoyable and for the whole running time animation and atmosphere were on point.
MC is quite dense but hopefully his cluelessness will reduce in the next episodes.

I like the lancer guy, no, I LOVE HIM! I want to take on his spear, if you know what I mean.

Now, back to the main guy Noor. At first I was going to get angry at how stupid he is to still not realized that he's strong but this episode actually give me an idea for a very strong theory. What if 6 schools are not reject him but he's just too good to the point that those teachers have nothing to teach anymore, but since Noor's misunderstanding skill is god-tier, he think 6 schools reject him. Though I'm concern that if he's too strong then he might destroy the power scale's balance in this anime as soon as he realized his strength. That's probably why the writer keep postpone the enlighten moment, which is kinda sad and frustrating but necessary to keep the power scale intact.

@phantomfandom Interesting theory, but no, I think they did reject him - LOL. He just brute force trained himself (aka Saitama) since he really didn't have any guidance or anything else to do.

Honestly this "I'm so weak" concept is already getting tiring, when the simple question of why would you want to apprentice under an F rank would clear up everything. I mean he's strong, but the confusion is just drawing the episodes out and doesn't lead anywhere.

Can’t get over how much Lynne reminds me of Menou and also Eydis from the SAO game verse! Think this is the second best episode so far, Gilbert’s backstory and sparring match with Noor was cool and Lynne pleading with Noor to become his page was adorable. Keep it up Lynne!

*Gilbert going all out to try and land a blow on Noor* Noor: “hey can you stop holding back 😭” man I need to see Noor and Ike from Shinmaiossan have a match. The internal monologues they’d both have would be gold.

Gotta be careful what you wish for because Gilbert wanted an opponent who could test him and make his life exciting again and Noor is definitely that.

Can’t get over Noor using the legendary sword as a damn drain cleaner lmao. Imagining himself using it for everything BUT fighting.

Lynne’s divine slash looks a lot like artoria’s Excalibur. Damn with how strong she is, she don’t even need to be a page. I guess the restrainer that they mentioned putting on her last episode is what messed her up against the Minotaur? Because she certainly should’ve been able to beat it

Understandable that she’d want to learn from Noor. He doesn’t get it yet but the heights he’s pushed his body and abilities to with no magical pedigree or formal training is insane. Even Oken’s finger flame spell wasn’t anywhere near his.. I wonder how long he’ll be able to “parry” Lynne before giving in and teaching her some skills.

Good ep

A man who lack general/common knowledge unaware of his strength and a girl who lack life/real world experience overconfident in her abilities, seems like an opportunity to learn from each other or a recipe for disaster.

Noor definitely need to hit up a library.

Just the way I wanted it.
They're not skipping a beat; not skipping the action scenes and fully animating it with high precision which was rather nice to see again. Because of the bad and awful animation these days, as well as bad adaptations, this one is rocking the boat in a good way!

MC's normal and chill misunderstanding is not even at the very least annoying, I don't know about you guys, but he is being adapted like a genuine-to-honest man who only cares to care for other people.

P.S. Lynne's character design is so normal but her character is a bit fun to be with. I honestly can't imagine shipping her to MC, nor do I feel something like that in this series. But I feel like this series is just getting started and I can't wait for more quality episodes.

P.S. #2 The pacing is just perfect. (Read the source if you want but don't ruin our fun)

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

So this Lynneburg chick became Noors page without him even wanting it. Quite bold move of this girl. Demanding of her. Anyways, Noor used that sword to clear shit out of the gutters just as I predicted last episode. That was fun to see.

Definitely the best episode so far.

Noor was recognized by two characters as strong, the way Lynne highlighted Noor's qualities is beautiful, she not only gave reasons to learn from him, but also talked about what how amazing Noor is.

Despite having a generic plot, it's still interesting to follow...

The classic anime “lack of communication leads to misunderstandings”.

The guy felt defeated after their match, but Noor felt like he barely survived.

She used top skills with ease, but she recognized something different and unique in Noor.

He trained his merger skills to the best they could be, which is incredible, but a misunderstanding lead her to believe he was that good in all categories.

Let’s see how this turns out.
Note: I don’t lazily watch 3-5 episodes, biasedly compare to other anime, or unfairly judge by surface level similarities. With every anime I start, I watch the entire series, both Japanese Sub & English Dub, then judge each anime based on what they present, to give an honest and fair rating.

@azl96 lmao yes I rofled so hard when he used the sword to clean the gutter. I was hoping someone from the last episode will witness it and become big mad but maybe it'll just spoil the top-tier comedy so far.

So all the people calling Noor "dense", y'all forgot how he tried his best (in fact, he tried so hard that no one believed it was true) but still got rejected by all 6 academies. So the "I'm a useless piece of s***" image of himself has already rooted so deep in Noor's mind it's just like how everyone knows when an apple leaves the tree it'll fall to the ground. It's just a fact for Noor and he is not even thinking about it one bit.

So, let me get this straight, he has a 'practice match' intended by spearboy to humiliate him, but ends up easily dodging all attacks and casually instigating the guy until he breaks out a flashy move at which point the mc squeals like a little girl and admits defeat... without ever, y'know, actually using the ONE SKILL he's trained to death. Someone might excuse it as using the match as a learning experience but a match like that is only good for anything if both sides use their full abilities within the scope of the contest.

He's too nice a guy to be doing it deliberately to insult spearboy so what, did he forget? No, he absolutely had plenty of leeway throughout to calmly assess his opponent and act accordingly. He just decided to do nothing but dodge for... reasons.

Comedy that's dependent on nothing but a lack of communication and misunderstandings is annoying enough, but coincidental idiocy to further the 'narrative' is another level entirely. Seeing as multiple people have mentioned the continued reliance on that format for the foreseeable, I'm done and dusted for this nonsense.

@ejleon I'm only guessing it's going to be one of those things as long you train the basics naturally you'll get stronger overall type shows. That's why Noor is so strong, and that's what he's eventually going to teach Lynn.

@SnowTV Then they suck at showing this because he seems to have selective low self esteem given how it shows him happy and taking pride in doing the small tasks for the villagers. So how come he can acknowledge praise from villagers for digging mud but can't from anyone fighting? It's just bad

I agree with you. Once they actually clear up how Noor trained, she will take her top skills to the next level. That will be awesome.

This anime has a lot in common with the other anime currently airing right now, about the MC "foolishly thinking he's weak af, but in reality nearly invincible". The only difference is by episode three, the other MC actually starting to realized he's strong, but this MC still acted like he's weak.

I parry everything? No... more like I dodge everything... But seriously what was that? He shouldn't be that battle experienced to dodge every attack from a pretty fast fighter and react to his every movement. That would be totally different if he parried every attack, but he didn't.

...and the episode title is half-lying, he parried all her applications for page, apprentice, etc but she got through in the end...Noor-sensei!

The MC is stupid beyond repair. And it's so bad that it's actually killing the show for me...

And why did she start talking about the talentless boy story, giving the impression she realized it's him, only to then drop it entirely for the little fire story which was completely unrelated... It makes no sense whatsoever.

For those who do not understand how mc-kun power works, the man is so good at parrying that he parries every argument of logic, deduction and common sense, along with greed, he parries every advantage for himself, his prospects and his bright future.
It's a good thing mc-kun is a simple farmworker with no pretensions to high IQ, so you can look at all this with a smile. If he had a different background, the acute vicarious embarrassment would make it physically painful to watch, but as it is, the humour is quite pleasant.
But it's his training that keeps me on my toes. How the hell does he parry just hanging sticks? How did he become such a machine? If you close your eyes to these questions, the title is fantastic.

Noon ended up being called "sensei" by someone he deemed more talented than him, but both Lynne & Gilbert (had to laugh when Noor can't remember his name and called him "Filbert" 😆) know he is someone extraordinary.

And Lynne's definitely strong, her abilities awe-inspiring, but she thinks she lacks the strength Noor possessed when he saved her from the minotaur.

Characters are horrible. The MC in particular. It's so tiring to watch a show where EVERY characters aren't able to communicate properly and where the MC lacks so much awareness. I mean... The way he grew kinda explains why he is like this, but god damn, not that much. I hope next episodes will reduce this aspect.
