English Dub Review: The Aristocrat’s Otherworldly Adventure: Serving Gods Who Go Too Far “Omen of an Onslaught”

Overview:

Aaron begins to unleash his onslaught and Cain is ready to protect his home.

Our Take:

Cain’s class learns the art of summoning magic and forming contracts with familiars. Cain summons a powerful demon named Seth and forms a contract with him. When the king finds out, he promotes Cain to Viscount and gives him his own town. The king says Cain isn’t worth of being a noble if he can’t protect a town.

Cain soon has a chance to prove that he can because Aaron is making his presence known. He unleashes a hoard of strong monsters. Cain and his new allies fend them off, but the town is still in danger. He entrusts the town’s safety to Claude and the others while he prepares for his battle with Aaron.

This episode does a fine job at setting up for the final battle. That being said, it’s a run of the mill episode. It has some funny moments, especially the post-credits scene. I also find Seth fearing Cain to be funny given his rank.

I’m getting tired of Cain’s lack of self-awareness. He even tells Seth to show some self-awareness in this episode, which is very hypocritical. I know it’s supposed to be funny, but I don’t find Cain to be charming so the joke is lost on me. I feel like he should know better at this point, especially given how powerful he is now.

Regardless, I’m curious to see how this final battle will go. We haven’t seen too much of Aaron, so it could be interesting to see how he faces off against our overpowered protagonist.
