| This episode turned from a sea adventure on a pirate ship to some epic battles. Definitely enjoyed this one with Sunraku and his crew fighting off some sea monsters. This new adventure also adds more world lore into itself although the fights they've had so far isn't as impressive yet compared to the first half of the season. Gotta see how much more they plan the rest of the show out. |
 |
| Another banger episode. Seeing some battles at sea was a nice change of pace from the land oriented stuff we normally get. Got some real pirates of the Caribbean vibes from the ghost ships and soldiers. I did feel a little downgrade in the animation, maybe they’re saving up for the big boss at the end of this? Reishi misclicking her status window was hilarious |

| Ehh I can't be the only one who thinks the show is starting to fall off right? ironic how a show about video games continues to undersell the impact of bosses in general. |
| Why did this episode (and in fact, many episodes of this cour) feel so slow? Are they dragging things out? When a season is 25 / 13 episodes you would think that it's because they want fit more things in it, but SLF seems to be doing the opposite(?) I get that they probably want to leave the fight with Ctarnidd for the next season, yet I wouldn't sacrifice the pacing if it wasn't absolutely necessary. I'll hold off on my final judgement until the end of the season, but currently I'm not happy with how they've managed their run time. |
| I love the attention to detail in this, the author is a gamer 100%, i considered that they were summoned there because he forgot to quit the party, it's so freaking realistic, even the pop up when Reishi was about to quit the party but the new window popped up and she misclicked it, that sht happened to me so many times in MMORPG! can relate Also cool new "storm in the sea/pirate" BGM |
| Rei-shi has her own reasons for playing and they all involve our boy Sunraku. I figured they got the call because he never ended the party with them. I like how they add these game elements into the series. I also really like how changing his weapons up gives him different buffs and stats, it's something you do not always take advantage of in games but it's nice to see him doing it here. I really like that the captain has found his resolve. It would have been bad if he didn't take part in the revenge he went to see to achieve. I really enjoyed the character interactions this episode. Rei-shi has been great all season. |

| @Mariklyn This guy is more like a mini-boss. He is like a checkpoint to get them the information they need on the real quest for the Colossi. Call this boss a quest marker. |

| Ah, so that's how Akane and Rei joined the mission, Sunraku forgot to disband the party and they both got delivered by accident. I thought Rei was stalking him but now I rest assured that wasn't the case. Regarding the mission itself well the fight hasn't amount to much yet but I'm hoping that ones the whale shows up things are really going to heat up. Also, I wanna see what the Super Emul Cannon actually is. |

| The two got dragged into it but no one would complain. It's always about Sunraku with Psyger 0 lol. Is that girl a rival or not and so on and I find it amusing. The unique scenario begins with the ghost ship and the group fighting. It'll be a while before we get to the end of this arc but I'm sure looking forward to it. |
 |
| This whole ship setting reminded me of Monster Hunter, heh. Well until the flying dutchman appeared from the depths lol. Great episode. |
| Good to see them not beat around da bush. I'm guessing they are in another fight that isn't the actual boss. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| These NPCs really take their jobs seriously - they literally traveled from city to city just to carry Psyger-0 in a barrel. 😂 The pacing and animation dropped a bit in this episode, probably because they're saving up for a bigger, more important battle. When the action starts, it'll be worth it! |
 |
| I knew that Psyger-0 and Akane were still in the party hence why they got invited. At least they are proving themselves useful even if Psyger-0 is still recovering from using her special attack against Lycagon. With what Sunraku said this fight is basically over with Emul's upcoming cannon attack which I'm very curious to see it in action as I recall it was recently used but Emul didn't remember anything haha. |
| A good episode for plot progression. But the animation quality keeps dropping the last few episodes, where it's getting annoying, especially once the fight started. Speaking of annoying, while Psyger-0 is very cool, I am geting so tired of ditzy love-lorn schoolgirl Saiga Rei. What a SQUEEE! girl. Can the devs ban her already? |

I just mean in general tho. Before he fought the wolf. They showed how he researched and knew how to make light work of the trash boss. Yet, here we are now. conviently forgetting to leave the party. Even though he is trying to keep this secret quest under wraps... |

I kinda wish they made the other games an ova and strictly focused on the shangri-la game only. All the stupid filler is getting annoying. |

| @Mariklyn I thought it was a good way of showing the mechanic. It is actually pretty believable since he was caught off guard by the Sage of Awakening, was up against a time limit for meeting with Rust and Mold, and went back to Rabituza to repair his gear and test out the time limit on his armor due to the curse mark. So, in his excitement he forgot to end the party, it might be a plot convenience but it's believable given the context of everything that is happening. When they showed up and he asked what they were doing there, I said "oh shit...they never left the party." So good on the write for this one imo. |

| @Mariklyn If they did not do the actual world building of his real world and other games it would just be an Isekai story wouldn't it? |

| Lol how Rein and the other one got forced to accept the quest since they were still in Sunraku's group from last time ahah, anyway now it's even more fun and we're getting some pretty intense fight on the boat already! |
 |
| We're finally in the battle. Looks like both Akitsuakane and Rei accepted the mission by mistake. LOL. But, they're gonna be a huge help in this battle. Everybody's playing their part and Sunraku is about to face the Boss of the Ship. |
 |
| Oh, so that's why Akitsuakane and Rei-shi randomly appeared at the pier. Sunraku forgot to disband the party after the Lycaon fight. Now that makes sense. Also, Super Emul Cannon hype is real! Looking forward to next episode. By the way, kinda curious to know what Rei-shi was about to do to compensate for her debuffed stats. |
| starts the special scenary and the party continues with 2 new memberst!!!! kekeke |
| Rust is cute as hell |
| Lol, She accidentally clicked yes on the event XD |

| Why is the title info card for the Frilled Shark Zombie upside down and in reverse? Other than that there was nothing mind blowing about this episode, except the serendipitous and split-second appearance of the accept quest button over the leave party button. |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| It's a bit of a weak episode. The start with Rei and Akitsuakane being delivered was funny but I don't care much for the battle against the fish people. |
 |
| Those two joining this quest turned out to be a blessing huh |
 |
| LOL, Ninja girl accepted cause she found it fun. Stalker girl accepted by mistake cause it poped out right as she was about to leave the party, LOL. . Tho... LOL @ the Pirate Delivery NPC... it looks like they have admin powers to force anyone into the barrel to be transported... cause I am sure not many could grab and toss Stalker girl into a barrel that easy, and the other guild members couldn't stop them from leaving. . also, that "Fool" card... previously I thought it would mean he only get the double stat buff when he's not in a party... But looks like I was wrong, it's actually in fact, he gets double stat buff, while all other party members gets half stat debuff. Interesting... so it's a card that makes Sun a Carry, since he has to, as the other party members are now weaker. |
| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| Rei, Akitsuakane and Ceecrue coincidentally meeting Sunraku and getting the same Unique Scenario, though it's because they're still in the same party since the Lycagon fight, and Sunraku basically forgetting to disband the party thereafter. Rei only got lucky because she second-guessed...or rather, got the scenario as well before she could cancel her way out of his party. So it is then, a gung-ho party that Sunraku has for allies, and ready to take on Ctarnidd of the Abyss onboard the Scarlet White ship, triggered by a cloud of lightning to reveal the Ghost Ship. The Pirates of the Caribbean feeling of the battle between the two ships may not be as engaging production-wise, but there's still a feasible amount of action that Sunraku and the gang need to deal with, and the battle's just beginning. |
