| Damn, Adonis and Dorotha's emotions were all over the place this episode. They somehow managed to add in some comedic material among all the serious drama, thanks to Dorotha and her bike riding skills. Pretty sure this episode was trying to build more of Adonis and Dorotha's relationship since it's been rather rocky. I don't think they hate each other but the pair seems rather depressing to watch. |
 |
| So Adonis orchestrated the attraction of humans as a ploy to return to Earth. His disdain for witches, shared by Chloe, does not extend to her, as he harbors a unique fondness for her. Adonis and Droka descended from the moon's surface to the Earth. Droka, unable to accept Adonis's willingness to sacrifice anything, including himself, for revenge, desperately tries to find a way to stop the cycle of negativity. As their emotions run parallel, a mysterious group begins to close in on the two. Alright, so the main objective was to exact revenge on the witches who attempted to manipulate Chloe. Her demise occurred because she was banished to the witches' kingdom, and no one came to her aid. As a gesture of gratitude for Doroka's information about the witches' plan involving Chloe, Adonis revived Doroka. Using a tracking device, he manipulated humans to carry out the task, leveraging their technology for a return to Earth. Additionally, it seems they were already contaminated, as evidenced by patches on their skin from consuming contaminated food before Adonis arrived. Considering Adonis effectively eliminates all of Chloe's friends, it's surprising to see her cheerful and smiling just one episode later. At this point, I'm continuing to watch for the overall vibes. |

| Ah, characters exploration. Doroka naivety and Adonis insanity starts to be explain and proper relationship dynamics starts to build up. The subversions are pretty amusing, tho if it not been the case, it would made the whole situation more complex.  |
| Much to the National Science Agency's dismay, Adonis changed his transfer coordinates so that both he and Doroka get transported elsewhere. Certainly, both the witch's apprentice and witch reached Earth, but on a different place, starting small to conquer Redia. But Doroka refused to tag with Adonis, which he reminds her once again that there is no reconciliation between witches and humans, of which he was supposed to be her beacon of light when Chloe chose him. Doroka may have ben ostracized by her own kin, but Adonis will not stand for all that he's lost, because revenge is all that matters for Chloe, till his death. A motorcycle gang lead by the Wastelands ringleader Punch, Doroka requested help that got them both saved and into the Wasteland settlement made up of vagrants from the Redia Empire. Adonis got patched up, while Doroka...was having fun being made a joker on riding a motorcycle. At the very least, both Doroka and Adonis tending to their own arguments, the motorcycle gang noticed and Doroka has to hide their true motives, being more a joker than ever. Obviously, it's easy to manipulate the surroundings, at least for Adonis, but he spares the vagrants since it's not worth killing them, nor Doroka, who has a fundamental sight that's different from him. Even Punch can sympathize with her somehow, though this journey is only for Adonis himself. And no one better than Punch knew him from the days that he was saved by both him and Chloe, though revenge is Adonis's only motive now, and Doroka has to make a choice for herself.,,which pursues her to find Adonis. In the end, they need each other, both Adonis and Doroka, standing by each other. |

| The sudden shift in the “mood” is off putting. I’m not the biggest fan of the jokes or “comedic reliefs” of this episode, it’s hard to enjoy the fun moments after all that’s happened so far. |
| Series did take a big left turn and have a marvels style dump on whats the point in watching this moment. Maybe next week it will get better? |

| @William_Patrioty Please explain yourself. Ive not complained any episode, but this one was shit. The first one that was shit, but you are already here making excuses. Explain yourself. |

| I wish the MCs swapped genders, I love mentally unstable girl MCs but Adonis is just downright annoying |
| Really can’t decide between this and Ragna Crimson as my top 1 this season, just goes back and forth depending on the day of the week lol. What a great episode. Loved Doroka and Adonis’ interactions and arguments this week. He’s been such a vengeful and edgy protagonist who only cares about one thing. Looks like Doroka finally got him changing his mind, or at least being more receptive to changing his mind. “Vengeance won’t heal your wounds” nor would it be what Chloe would really want. Ngl I was a little worried about the biker gang, especially with how dark this show has been, but I’m glad they subverted expectations and had them be totally normal. No rape or attempted rape scene, just Doroka trying to tame a motorcycle lmao. It’s cool that’s the group from the first episode who were in the desert when Chloe and Adonis made it show. Love a full circle moment. Doroka is really the perfect person to travel along with Adonis as she brings out that inner child in him that he’s had to repress because of his journey for revenge. That pure smile at the end was nice. Can’t wait for more of this! |

"Hey remember when you led on purpose special forces to the Moon and had all my people slaughtered with 0 mercy? Yeah me neither, take this doll and let's be friends!"
| @Nitens Didn't you hear Doroka say at the end: "He's actually a very gentle person". So the huge piles of corpses he leaves behind himself don't matter, it's all good :D |
| To be fair he wasn't interested in killing people who weren't from Redia so it's not really a genocide of the human race he wants, although he knows what he's doing isn't right or going to make him feel better anyways. I think the series will continue to have very dark moments but now that Adonis has a positive influence I think there will be more regularly occurring wholesome moments in the show which would have to happen to change Adonis' mindset regardless as it seems the story starts off edgelord but gets less edgey as it goes on and he finds a different reason to live |

| it was a good episode with almost no blood.... |

Finally some actual decent human beings in this damn anime lol. Biker gang chill af.
| @Phlaryx At last the author it seems remembered that there are some decent human beings in this world. I suspected the worst when the bikers showed up. If they had been doing what I suspected them to be doing that would been the straw that broke the camels back for me so having them being a bunch of chill dudes at the edge society was quite the curveball for me. |

| A lot of character progression here; I hope we see punch again. All those guys seemed like really good people. |
 |
| she was riding a bike, that's one of the weirdest baits i've ever seen and i can't even find it in me to laugh with the way this shows been, but eh W for not letting anything happen to her ig. |
 |
| Biker gang just chill like that |
| Decent episode except the scenes of "comedy" didn't really hit as they just survived a witch genocide and are in desert wasteland. At least the biker gang was actually chill although that may be because the leader got saved by Chloe years ago and he recognized Adonis as her apprentice. Doroka seems to be too forgiving but that may help calm down Adonis a bit, hopefully. |
| I seriously loved this episode, we finally Start to get to know Adonis more deeply, I also really liked the part where Doroka and Adonis start to get to know the gang of cyclists, I also liked that the leader of the gang even knowing the true identity of Adonis did not "banish" him from the camp |
 |
| Finally it will going to something after this episode, the last episodes for me feel like prologue tbh |
  What Does Pot of Greed do?  |
| Maybe Doroka would have got through to Adonis more if she pointed out he's been acting no different than the humans that killed Chloe. That would have hit a nerve. Doroka is kinda cute actually. Chibified jokes didnt really feel in place but the old man pulling a "im old i dont know what im doing" kind of gag was kinda funny ryzxgum said: she was riding a bike, that's one of the weirdest baits i've ever seen and i can't even find it in me to laugh with the way this shows been, but eh W for not letting anything happen to her ig. I had a feeling it was going to be a fakeout. Seemed obvious from how laid back, generous and friendly the fat guy was but not really being concerned for her which told us she's not really necessarily in any danger. LucenProject said: Adonis heard Doroka screaming, jumped off the first roof with no shoes on. jumped off the second roof WITH shoes on, landed on the sand without shoes on. Weird animation error but not worst ive seen in a show. LucenProject said: Why did he have to tranq everyone to just leave? instead of... just leaving? He's injured still for one thing. So he wouldnt have to kill them if they follow him and so they cant betray him by telling others where he was headed probably. They are outcasts of the kingdom he hates so he doesnt really have an interest in going after them. Probably is slowly realizing his hatred isnt for all humanity. |

| Why these slapstick humor scenes? If you want to develop your relationship better, there are less silly ways to do it.. 😞 |
𝕄𝕪 𝕔𝕒𝕟𝕕𝕚𝕖𝕤:       |
| OMG Doroka has the attention span of a goldfish while Adonis wants to be next Eren Yeager so bad. I can't believe I'm watching this to be honest, and I'll probably finish this series just to see the punchline. Don't get me wrong, I'm entertained alright. |

| Seriously? This show does realize that Adonis is just as responsible for killing the witches on the moon as the human strike team yes? He burned the tree and got them up there but anime has Doroka ignoring this. Her attitude right now is absurd beyond belief but not unexpected in this stupid show. This shift in tone is strange certainly, Adonis is snapped of his edgy kill everything in sight attitude (for the moment anyway) but even if he mellows it is far far far too late for me to care. Would be better have him remain a dick than to try some redemption nonsense. |
 |
| Might be the only one, but I kept thinking about borderlands while watching this episode |
 |
| Adonis: I lured humans to the moon so they would kill witches Also Adonis: You should hate humans because they are killing witches. Seriously, this guy.... |
 |
| I. HATE. ADONIS. I thought I was going to really like this show. Redo of Healer was better. He slaughters Doroka's family, mocks her about it until she cries, then berates her for crying. Then, when she is laughing to hide her severe trauma, he again eviscerates her for that. It's the mental abuse for me. He is psychologically torturing her. She has done nothing to deserve the treatment she is getting. I enjoy a good revenge story as much as the next guy, but ffs why is Doroka the only one getting revenged on. It's not even like Adonis isn't justified in going against humanity. Why isn't the show about that. I'll go so far as to say that I disagree with Doroka trying to stop Adonis, but I will defend her when it's been nothing but friendly fire since she met him. And now she's just expected to be bubbly, and happy, and support him. F-ck that. F-ck Adonis. #JusticeForDoroka |

| Ah what a chill episode, very much needed after all that gore I guess this is where Adonis and Doroka adventure truly begins |
| Worst ep so far The comedy aspect torally ruin the overall tone of the show. |
| "The greatest happiness a man can know is having something worth fighting against the wolrd for" |
| It was nice to end on a lighter note than the previous episodes |
| Mannn Doroka's motive seems to be all over the place. She hates violence and wants peace so he's gonna protect Adonis? Who, let me remind you, plans to genocide the whole of humanity?? Maybe what she meant is she'll try changing Adonis's mind from wiping out all humans. Also, the way she forgave Adonis so quickly feels weird. He did just summon those humans to your home on the moon to wipe out all your friends and even acknowledges that your friends were good smokescreen.... Doroka is too fucking naive honestly and hopefully she gets to build up her spine a bit and at least get mad because this is too unreal and unrealistic. |
