Season 2 Episode 2:

It was another nice, enjoyable episode, but without any twist at the end of the episode, pacing feels very slow now and I'm reminded of last seasons' Vinland Saga S2. Just nothing happened that's important. And I'm mad that Rudeus spent MONTHS there just waiting to be contacted, like, bitch, GO SEARCH FOR YOUR MOM!

The repeated focus on Roxy's panties really feels out of place at this point in time. He should just fuck Sara to get it out of his system, girl wants his d.

Anyway, only two ways I see this end:
- either "Counter Arrow" is killed next week, giving impetus to Rudeus moving forward (maybe Sara survives?)
- or the get into a big fight with some uber-boss monsters and Rudeus finally reveals to the group just how far above his power level is compared to theirs and that causes him to move on, basically being like "we're on very different points in our journey, I must now proceed my own journey, bye".

Finally, I'd have preferred a slightly longer timeskip so Rudeus at least looked like a young man. He's still looking like a little boy, only with sixpack now lol
