English Dub Review: Combatants Will Be Dispatched! “How to Defeat an Evil Leader!”
Overview:
Six is given a dangerous mission by the totally not evil general. His group gets sent on what is essentially a suicide mission. Everyone gets a task to handle (except Grimm who is asleep?) and Six has to fight a giant golem. To buy time for Alice to “order” C-4 he releases the limiters on his suit. Six wins and uses a pretty *ahem* “unique” way to demoralize Heine the demon lord. Snow overhears something interesting from Six and Alice that could have huge implications down the road.
Our Take:
So I know this show can do comedy but in this case, it can even do action remarkably well. I felt actually hyped watching Six take on the golem. He already seemed pretty strong but the limiters on his suit gave him super-strength. I love that this show can handle the action scenes as well, definitely bodes well for the rest of the series.
Six humiliates Heine by making her do sexy poses and takes photos of her. She THOUGHT she would be getting her magic stone back but apparently, that was never part of the deal. Six just keeps raking in the evil points, so he shouldn’t run out anytime soon. Then again he doesn’t seem to have the best financial mind so who knows at this point.
Score
Summary
This will be a bit of a spoiler for the end of the episode but it bears mentioning cause it could have huge implications on the story. So, read at your own risk.
SPOILER
Snow overhears Six and Alice talking about their spy mission because Six was wisely not speaking Japanese. Seriously, how can he be so dumb? The episode ends with Snow opening the door and dropping the gold she was bringing them. What will this mean in future episodes? I don't know about you but I think it will be interesting. This show has been pretty cleverly written so far.
