Rokka no Yuusha: Braves of the Six Flowers

[shinta|hikari]

The fiends that wouldn't have come out if they beat her unconscious while she was tickling her throat?

EDIT: Oh you meant she might eat them? They didn't even know about the fiends at that point.

Your logic about an assassin and the strongest man on earth, who can fight on level ground with an assassin, not being able to knock a person out makes no sense. Knocking people out isn't rocket science. A good punch or a proper sleeper hold (which also prevents her from vomiting minions!) would work.

You guys are providing reasons why they shouldn't knock her out. But stop and think about the reasons why they should've knocked her out/beaten her up/injured her/stopped her somehow. A preemptive strike would've ended the fight already, saving them the trouble and danger they are in now.

But then again, there wouldn't be a fight in the next episode.

They could've easily fixed this oddness by giving Chamo some sort of defense while she is busy summoning creeps, like a barrier, a flash grenade, an invisible fiend guard she always drags around, anything.

That scene was a typical summon/power up/ transformation scene that no one interrupts for the sake of plot.
