Very interesting episode. I don't know how that blood will affect Rentt but it seems to me like it wouldn't be a normal reaction based on the fact he's undead. Let's pray for the best. Also good for him for making friends with another vampire (I assume that's what that girl is). Maybe the flowers can cure vampirism?

inb4: I didn't read the source material.

About "But who tf leaves a golem around without the kill switch lmao. Should’ve definitely given Rentt a heads up that he was anywhere near that. Good thing he’s so OP, that could’ve been fatal for anyone else."

I think she did that on purpose to mess with him/test him.
The timing of them finding the kill switch, just before Rentt destroyed the golem with his ultimate, is too perfect.
Almost like they waited until the last second while already having the kill switch on hand.

And Rentt still getting the vampire blood is also not a coincidence, considering the scene with Laura and her elf underling after Rentt was sent off (kinda proof that they are a vampire and her servant respectively), they definitely, IMO, set up that ruse so they could give him the vampire blood in addition to whatever he chose as an apology, in case he didn't pick the blood in the first place.
@FullyCharged If that was true, this whole ruse could have been ruined 5 minute after coming to storage. If Rentt took drone, that would be end of it...

The maze ended up being more than just a normal maze, and that was because it would teleport you to the beginning lol, when Rentt was told not to look at the sun I was thinking they meant literally but it was actually a hint to look at the sun, cool little reveal there. And upon making it to the mansion Rentt was given the choice of a reward by Laura Latour who I was thinking was the elf guy’s little sister or something but she’s actually the master lol, she’s got a nice design and I like her as a character from what we saw, and after reading some posts in this thread I do like the theory that she is a vampire herself.

And after seeing those magic items they almost remind me of items we have irl, like that remote control airship which acts like a drone at the same time, as well as that bouncy ball. But then you also had the teapot that doesn’t need tea leaves and the giant robot golem so I guess they aren’t all like that lol, and speaking of the golem that was a situation that could have easily been avoided with a little warning or a better placement of the off button but I did enjoy the brief fight Rentt had with it lol. In the end, Rentt ended up choosing the remote control airship and also the vampire’s blood he found at the end, this is definitely leading to Rentt becoming a vampire on the final episode, it’s been a long time coming so I’m looking forward to seeing Rentt’s new look, I’ll miss this one when it’s gone for sure.

@Tenzen12

If you remember, Rentt "leaned by mistake" on a piece of the golem and his magic activated it.

I bet they prepared plenty of pieces of the golem Rentt could have "leaned on by mistake" even if he went straight for the drine xD

i'm guessing that latour family head is a vampire herself, and what will rentt do with the vampire blood? he's definitely tempted to drink it since it's in his nature to do so, but will he or won't he? hmm...

She's definately a vampire, that's how her family became so rich. It's her blood in the vial too... right? Drinking it will make the drinker her minion. This season is gonna end on a cliffhanger :/

Well he's already a ghast so maybe the blood will make him evolve into a proper vampire and hopefully look more human-like and less of a ghoul.
At least from there, he could strive to become the higher forms of a vampire and achieve immunity from sunlight and thirst of blood.

Rentt going to the Latour mansion, only to get lost in the garden labyrinth, he's going to have to take a strategy here.

On the way, stopping at a pavilion, which houses the head of the family, a girl named Laura, for a tea break, Rentt takes the offer. But a teapot which can replicate the taste of tea without tea leaves, it's quite the magic item, one of which attracts her is Rentt's mask which hides his ghastly appearance. Once again, the sun comes up as a hint, though he soon realizes that the sun teleports its way randomly, taking him almost the entire afternoon to figure the maze out. Once he does, he is given a reward to get a magic item from the vast labyrinth collector's storage, some useful and many others useless like toys, one of which is an airship which is a good scouting item that unfortunately burns mana at a quick rate.

However, in the search of a useful item, a mana golem is instead powered up, which disrupts their process. More or less, they do have shutdown devices, but finding one for this is extremely cumbersome, and Laura stopped it with the magical tongue. Going further in, one potion catches Rentt's interest: the blood of a vampire, though it's of quite high value. Instead, the airship is what Rentt chose, plus Isaac granting him the vampire blood potion.

Laura can finally ingest the Dragonblood flower for recovery, and Rentt...will he take the plunge to become a vampire?

A whole episode that felt like a filler.

A tea pot that can replicate any drink it held in the past really sounds like something expensive, but if 1 platinum can make someone's life change, that teapot doesn't worth 300 platinum, you can tell the author didn't think through the economy of this story.

Besides, "sorry I didn't find the key", "no, sorry I didn't stop the golem", "no, sorry I touch your stuff", really?

I really enjoyed this anime when it started, but it turned plain so quickly. I am still curious about the story but is it even doing well enough for a season 2?

Was worried for a second that Rentt ended up NOT taking the vampire blood, in place of that remote controlled airship, just for a gag. This would've been a pretty lame episode (apart from an Echinda tea party) otherwise, because of course we're probably wanting to if Rentt can succeed in becoming a vampire. And besides that, just him discussing with Lorraine whether or not to take it makes for some interesting conversation as well.

Nice episode I love the fantasy aspect in this show it’s so cool seeing these magical items that this world uses and shit it’s really intriguing to me that’s why I love this show it really makes me love the fantasy genre even more

I LOVEEEEE Laura’s design the colour of her hair, the colour of her eyes, the way she smiles like she looks so cute in her outfit and shit and her attitude makes her even 10x better I love everything about her😍🥰😍🥰💜

She’s also a troll who loves seeing Rentt’s reactions to the magical items and him struggling with the golem he was battling like she really had a smile on her face bro was fighting for his life😭😭😭

Like everyone else here is saying I’m pretty sure as well that Laura is a vampire herself and maybe that might be her blood in that vial which she gave to Rentt, I wonder if he does he’d become her familiar or something?🤔

So much to wonder yet there’s only one episode left mannnnnn I’m so sad bc I really love this show and look forward to it every Friday😭☹️😭😭

I love this anime!
The moment he saw that vampire blood, I was like, "Oh shit, there's your ticket to get out of being a ghoul!" The tension went up dramatically when he was contemplating on drinking it. Good writing.

Frieren would definitely love Laura's collection for sure.

I love the music in this show, its like in Skyrim, it just adds so much to the setting and makes it more magical.

Lol he took the drone.

I really hope this gets a second season, I doubt reading the LN would be as good S this show with its great designs.

@LeenPhoenixRae Well vampirism hasn't been described how it works in the anime so i can only say this in spoilers, even though it's technically not a spoiler.

The Latour girl has a mysterious vibe to her, interested to find out more about them. But for now lets see what happens to Rentt. He got a fun toy too.

The maze completion was so disappointing. 10 seconds ago "Do I have to start over again?" and then suddenly he is out of a maze???? Really disappointing, I wanted to see him figuring it out, but it all happened offscreen.

@Hirugiku You seen him to figure it out though. Once Rentt figured trick, there were no reason to drag it out.

LOL @ Rentt doing the maze.

Tho.. we didn't really see him solving the "teleportation"... he figured out it's teleportation, but never explained how he got around it.

.

Hmm... magic collecting little girl... that just collect anything that's infused with magic regardless of their functions.

Kinda blah really... all these interesting things, and all kept underground where no one can see it... should just make a giant museum or something to showcase these magic items.

BTW... DRONES... LOL

.

Also....

"where's the shut down device"

"we put it somewhere separate to be safe"

...

WHAT?... Why would you do that? safety devices should always be near, so it can be SAFE... why separate it?... sounds like you want it to be UNSAFE...

It's like putting a Fire extinguisher in next room from the Kitchen cause "it's safe in a separate room"... LOL

Meanwhile... Rentt is fighting for his Life and the little girl is just... ( ・ᴗ・) "this is interesting"

.

Also... so Rentt took the Drone too... and he's using it to "peek" at Lorraine... hehe, very fun indeed, LOL.

I have a hunch that family might be a vampire clan. judging from the collection, she's been collecting them for a long time.

I think Rentt would actually become part of that family after drinking the blood.
