English Dub Review: Beast Tamer “Champion”

Overview

Edgar is possessed by a demon and transforms into a monster, forcing Rein and his party to fight him desperately to protect the city. The members of Arios’ party consider providing aid, but Arios refuses to not expose his involvement with it…

Our Take

The jarge demon’s real target of attacking the city of Horizon, and he gives Rein and his party a run for their money being a battle of ultimate species vs. a strong demon with limitless supply. And when that doesn’t work, the plan to evacuate its citizens takes priority. Also, Arios the Hero can just go to hell with the absurd thinking that the demon that Rein is facing, is cannon fodder, but I think Arios partially did it so he wouldn’t implicate himself for being the “indirect reason the Demon is there”.

With Stella’s help, the evacuation effort is underway, and eventually, the adventurers from the Horizon Guild with Gantz owe them a handful to help them in fending off the demons. And all the while, Nina the demigod hasn’t had a chance to showcase herself, she chooses to help Rein get close to the demon to tame the minions down and force them against it.

Overall this was quite an action-filled episode. Nina’s powers make her a very powerful asset and a great addition to the team. Every setup that culminated from previous episodes has all led to this moment with so many great payoffs in the end. With one episode left, how could they possibly end this?
