So as bad as this episode was I will say I did not expect the brutality in the flashback.  That said what a waste.  Why be that brutal at all if you're just going to censor the blood?  Also, no one cares about these characters.  They really should have just done the whole flashback in one episode cause splitting it up the way they did was annoying and gave the audience zero time to care about these characters.  The ending of the flashback was dumb too.  Let's just throw away three more lives instead of regrouping and fighting another day.  Let's just not tell our god anything that happened, hide from them, and ask them to leave so Ryu can go on a revenge murder spree.  The not flashback part was dumb too.  Healing magic exists yet we didn't use it until Bell wanted to take a swim in the Mermaid toilet.

How could they regroup and fight another time if the Juggernaut was still there? Also Ryuu already used all of her magic, it takes time to recover it.

They could've just left.  Just like Ryu did after her wind magic failed to kill the Juggernaut anyway

0 complaints. Amazing episode. Probably the best Danmachi episode ever.

Ryus backstory was perfect.
I even felt a bit scared about her here even though this anime gives me 0 reason to ever question a main characters survival after the revival last season

It just hit me, they probably have to face the juggernaut again at some point, that will be crazy.

Not gonna lie. Despite my general dislike towards this franchise, this episode was indeed almost perfect. And I say "almost" because there were still aspects that brought down the episode's overall quality such as the no explanation of Jura surviving despite Ryuu stabbing to death what was supposed to be his body and of course, the inevitable conclusion with Ryuu falling for white knight Bell after some cliche words.

Those aspects aside, I still found this episode extremely solid. Ryuu's character and backstory are easily peak DanMachi so it sure will be a shame when the spotlight returns to Hestia and co. Hayami Saori did fantastic with the voice acting and I absolutely loved the OST during the "Luminous Wind" scene.

They could've just left.  Just like Ryu did after her wind magic failed to kill the Juggernaut anyway

She left because after her attack the Juggernaut ran away. If they tried to escape the Juggernaut would have killed them like the others.

Ryu finally called Bell by his name, that scene was really tense, emotional and beautiful. Ryu blushing was really cute. Need Ryu x Bell, if they don't end up together after all this then it'll be really disappointing.

As for the backstory, now that was tragic and brutal damn.
Well, the blush is ok since in that moment he picked up (another) girl in the dungeon

Bell's rizz game in on another level, I have to give him credit where credit is due. I've never seen someone flip the atmosphere of near gruesome, very real almost death into "uwu u called me by my name hehe" that quickly. That's a skill

Fujino Omori has recently tweeted that the Juggernaut that spawned during the Astraea Familia destruction is from the 30th Floor. Meaning the backstory in this episode takes place on the 30th Floor. It's a 3 Floor difference compared to the one Bell and Ryuu are facing that spawned on the 27th Floor so it's a little weaker

HOLY SHIT! this episode had me at the edge of my seat. First was we finally got to see the specs of how the Astrea Familia got brutally massacred when they fought the juggernaut and Ryu's life beyond that point. I gotta say, it was pretty tragic. I'd say this has to be my favorite episode so far. Despite being more of a "lore" episode instead of the usual action/fighting episodes, this one gives lots of character depth that I honestly didn't expect much to get.

Also I have to point out that Ryu is the BESTEST girl in this show. When she shows even the slightest bit of emotion is where she gets me, that scene of her blushing is enough to even make Thanos fall to his fucking knees. 

Enough about Ais, Hestia or any other girl in this show, Ryu-san's already got everything.

that's an explanation I can accept...it did indeed seem to me that Ryu and Bell fared better so far against the juggernaut than Ryu's Familia before.  now I'm dying to see how the next 2 eps address this--it kinda looked like the older monster crumbled after a while, unless I misunderstood what I saw in Ryu's recollection.  If Bell and all the others can escape, they may be able to simpley wait out the Juggernaut/dungeon, until the monster crumbles or gets reabsorbed.  

Bell's already fighting on par with level 5's I'd bet....if he manages to kill the Juggernaut, he may end well up the list of most powerful adventurers in Orario

To me, this EP was wild, the details of the deaths at Ryu's party... It was dark, holy ****!!. 

But take away that part, I like the thing going between Bell and Ryu. 
AND I hope that they develop a 1 on 1 love relationship

Holy FUCKKKKKKK this episode was just beautiful and phenomenal J.C Staff really put their heart and soul into this, the art and animation was just so damn beautiful. Now that we saw what Ryu went through I understand why she so scared of the Monster, bc that shit tore apart her party limb from limb LITERALLY🙁

Bell pretending to be knocked out and scaring Ryu was a funny but heartwarming moment🥺😭

This is the best Danmachi I've seen, I even want to think it's better than the first season.
I knew from the beginning that Ryuu is for me the best character in the anime, better than Ais.

Gonna be honest, before this season I didn’t know anything about Lion, in fact I found her to be just a meh character. But the way they’ve adapted the light novel arc and incorporated her into the anime so seamlessly has me blown away by how deep her character is. A lot of anime would’ve tried to skip this part like how Shield Hero did in season 2, just breezing past “boring” parts but I’m glad Danmachi didn’t, and really took the time to explore Lion and her past!

oh shit, this episode's title scares me, i'm not ready lol

starting the episode with a ton of explosions, we all know who did it and what happened because of it lol fucking jura
jura's familia which kept doing bad things vs astraea familia and their justice , who will prevail? (we already know the answer, fml lmao)

just like in present time, so much dungeon destruction spawned the big monster, with all those scary sounds before it even came close to them
it didn't even take a second between it appearing and taking multiple victims, what a terrible sight
we also saw how it used the girls magic agains't them, that's how Ryo knew it in earlier episodes
knowing there's no hope left, the other 3 girls, who are already in a bad shape, decided to sacrifice themselves to save Ryu, who was the only one still with a decent chance of survival
after telling their goodbyes and Kaguya giving her some blades, they went away while Ryu watched them with tearful eyes... time to start chanting her magic
the little blind girl's sacrifice, activated a ton of bombs, while Kaguya managed to hit it with her sword before dying herself ... lastly Alise, used her own time to do some attacks, not even stopping after being hit by the monster's nail, ending up with a big flame... which obviously was partly refleted at her, that must have hurt
finished with her chanting, she used the same spell as last episode, Luminous Wind, scaring the monster away
clearly depressed by the loss of her friends, she managed to escape, but refused to go to their home, it would remind her of the friends and she didn't want to face the goddess either
after a while, she went back to the 30th floor to bury her friends, but the monsters devoured them, bones and all...damn
after somewhat making them a grave, with no corpses, but at least with some of their weapons... Ryu didn't know what to do... her friends wanted her to live, while she wanted to die and join them... tormented by that, she decided to hunt the people who made this happen, jura and his familia ... not for justice, but only for revenge
asking her goddess to let ther leave the city, it was accepted, but she should give up on justice. the goddess didn't remove her from her familia but that might be just an act of pity

acting on her hatred for jura's familia, she destroyed anyone who even had any ties to them, even if they were innocent (?)
no unfair methods were spared, traps, ambushes, working during night, anything went, if it meant killing bad people, not caring about consequences (she wanted to die anyway)
she finally met jura, and we know how she cut his ear and arm, but unfortunately left him alive... which ofc, was not a good thing, sicne he made it happen again
jura's familia God appeared, but Ryu didn't feel like fighting him and left

i don't think her friends left her alive wanted her to end up with such a revenge... but then again, they wanted to beat jura when the dungeon problem happened...
anyway, revenge was done and she again wanted to die... that's when another person came to help her, Syr, and from past episodes, we know Ryu ended up working in the guild with her

back in present day, she was dreaming about her friends, asking them to take her with them... but Bell saved her again, so no death yet lol how many times will she try to die, just to miraculously survive?
Bell attack was so strong that it completely destroyed the collosseum, revealing another passage
Bell carried her, while she kept asking him to let her, a murdered, just die there, in the place her friends also died
despite that, in Bell's perspective, she is an hero who saved him and his friends multiple times, so, it's not his right to judge her for her past crimes... in his eyes, her justice lives on, and that's enough to make her cry ... maybe going home is worth it, as long as Bell is with her

ofc, their happy moment together didn't last long, a barbarian came at them out of nowhere and knocked Bell unconcious
the monster went in to eat Bell, and Ryu went in a spiral of dispair, remembering her friends deaths again... screaming Bell to wake up...
but it was all fake, a trap to lure and kill the monster LOL Ryu's face got so red HAHAHAHA
she made him promise to not do that again, her heart couldn't stand it if he repeated that joke
the found a river, no one ever mentioned that, because everyone stayed away from the colosseum... Bell fainted into the river, and Leon followed him there, before using a heal spell
drinking some water and then giving some to Bell, how cute she looks now lol

after such a hard to watch first half (that we have been antecipating for weeks), the ending of this episode was ridiculously cute, so my heart is healed lol
like people said in other comments, Bell certainly just picked a girl in the dungeon haha
favorite "new girls" from fall 2024 <3 (yeah i didn't watch much in 2025...) ... click sig for older seasons
