NoHead17152026-01-22 04:05

she can become a sand-bender next

Boris-_-Badenov2026-01-21 16:01

then Anya gets one, probably fire or earth... and they can do feeble combos

ObvsThrowaway51202026-01-21 14:26

at that, there’s two pint sized little goobers getting eaten by slime lol. Nice Rirui has a new little friend. Maybe rival. Definitely friend though lol

Man, I was not expecting Totoro to show up in that trial. Wild they got a Ghibli collab. And look! They got that giant tortoise from Shield Hero too lol. Seems Rirui’s a water bender now. She can make it drizzle water on slimes like some Aqua level magic lol.

mekerpan2026-01-21 15:47

That Totoro cameo was pretty funny.

Now our hero has 2 kidlings to contend with -- and the ED makes it look like he is destined to get another. He may be 29 NOW, but he is going to ***feel*** a lot older soon.

NoHead17152026-01-22 04:04

\> That Totoro cameo was pretty funny

Truly! And they made him do the scariest of glares, I was bursting out laughing.

ShodanW2026-01-22 15:27

considering that big tentacle, hes more like TotoCthulu

djthomp2026-01-21 14:37

Not a sign of adult Rirui anywhere, and we still got a cameo from hot purple lady anyway. Rirui getting that water spirit blessing and the focus on her and her new friend Anya, lots more development for her kid self too. Considering the egg they bought and the dragon she's riding in the OP she's probably going to hatch a dragon companion as well, INB4 this is a secret story of her becoming the hero and it's not really about Hajime.

It's always a bit funny when you have these very Catholic coded churches and nuns and then they're spirit shamans when you see the magic.

treert2026-01-21 22:45

The egg is deff that round yellow bird in the op

PeaceAlien2026-01-21 15:26

Cute episode overall

mekerpan2026-01-21 15:49

I think this has now established itself as a keeper -- unless it takes a seriously wrong turn (which it still could -- given the succubus angle).

Mission-Spread52252026-01-21 17:31

It’s already taking a turn it’s like all they have to do is make these type of anime’s wholesome but for some reason they always have to add some weird scenes just for the sake of it😂

WINSTON9132026-01-22 05:33

I feel you. I nope'd out after the "friends dont steal from each other" possessive line and giving the new child the "I'm in love" blush. It's just over the line for me and not entertaining enough elsewhere for me to endure it.

Demon kings daughter will be my wholesome cute show for this season. Maybe I'll rewatch Too Cute Crisis on HiDive

hammile2026-01-21 15:33

I like how slimes are animated here.

mekerpan2026-01-21 15:48

The water spell rainbow didn't do much to help Rirui avoid being slime-gobbled....

Boris-_-Badenov2026-01-21 16:04

she's still not scared of them!

she'll murder them!

mekerpan2026-01-21 16:17

Maybe even murderize them.... ;-) (though I think Daffy Duck's variant was "murdalize").

NoHead17152026-01-22 04:04

Removing their eyeballs to kill them is pretty unique take as well.

Shmappii2026-01-21 15:39

Anya's first appearance cracked me up! Coming in from the corner of the frame with the impact and "byaugh" reaction was super cute, great way to introduce a new character.

aramatheis2026-01-21 20:48

That, the egg eyes, and the slime's squinty eyes after being sprayed with water lol. All great little moments

BiggerG72026-01-21 15:49

For a minute there I thought Hajime really did eat her egg lol.

Missingnoleader2026-01-21 16:02

I love how eyes just became eggs right there.

A-really-bad-time2026-01-21 15:51

Riuri: *gremlin noises*

The spirit turtle: "this strange creature amuses me..."

Riuri: *one media medium away from challenging the sun*

The spirit turtle: "I think i have taken a liking to it"

Boris-_-Badenov2026-01-21 16:00

this show is hilarious.

hopefully they don't do much with the succubus stuff

zool7142026-01-21 16:07

Really love Rirui’s gremlin energy. Kinda reminds me of Anya (SxF) at times.

Since Hajime is adopting another daughter

Missingnoleader2026-01-21 16:28

I continue to love the various expressions of the characters, especially when Rurui's eyes turned into eggs. Poor Hajime never found a spirit in all the times he's entered that door, which probably cost him a lot of money. Also we get the first confirmed slime death by our children cast. Turns out you need a sneak attack to deal massive damage while at low levels.

AnimeHoarder2026-01-21 21:10

>which probably cost him a lot of money

If Hajime and Rirui had listened to the nun's story, maybe the fee for Rirui would have been less.

GloriousNipOnSteel2026-01-21 16:52

Slightly bothered that they didn't explain what you're supposed to do after entering the trial door, she was just randomly wandering around and picking ~~flights~~ fights. :/

Also after exiting, the nun's like *congrats yer a water wizard!* but fails to elaborate any further? So she confirmed some level of affinity for magic, and our MC was fine with going straight to the dungeon without any magic lessons or training from someone knowledgeable?

Missingnoleader2026-01-21 17:06

MC in all his 29 years of existance hasn't really gotten an encounter for a proper spirit, so he'd have no clue either about the magic stuff, just that you could get one using this scenario. Though it is a problem that he probably can't teach her that either. If only there was someone who could use magic in the town right now...

GloriousNipOnSteel2026-01-21 17:17

That's what I'm saying. He already established that he knows next to nothing about magic, you'd think the nun would have more basic knowledge since she's the one with the key to opening the portal. Even if she's just a gatekeeper and also have no understanding of magic, there's bound to be someone they can consult with in the village first before jumping into the dungeon blind right?

Missingnoleader2026-01-21 17:48

This is an outskirts rural town after all, so the likelihood of any other spirit magic users would have to be another adventurer. It'd be convenient if he knew a spirits arts user of some kind, but that'd be reliant on luck of the draw. She does have the basic steps down of casting, power is an entirely other story that might just come from experience. Or worse this could be a magic system of personal magic where you gotta grind your own spells.

NoHead17152026-01-22 04:09

Knowledge is power. Power costs money. The nun had already said as much. If they actually listened to her sun story, she might give a discount.

thekuj12026-01-21 17:22

I can accept anachronisms in my fantasy anime, but Hajime smoking FILTERED CIGARETTES takes me out of it.

The animators could have drawn medieval tobacco pipes or even cigars (created by ancient Mayans), but they were just too lazy.

Also Rirui looks like a blonder Katyusha.

CuriousBroccolli2026-01-22 00:44

>Also Rirui looks like a blonder Katyusha.

Damn

Now that you mentioned it. xD

tripleaamin2026-01-21 17:48

Rirui having a friend in Anya is really wholesome. Though both need Hajime to babysit them. Still good to see Rirui can use water spirit magic. It might be a while until she figures out how to make it work.

I did find Rirui's dream sequence funny. Though she better take better care of her egg.

MayonakaMadaraka2026-01-21 17:51

If that egg doesn’t get broken I wonder if it’ll hatch a wee dragon lass. Three’s company and all that.

heimdal772026-01-21 17:53

She entered Pal World.

NationalStrategy2026-01-21 18:18

I was definitely not expecting to see mutated Totoro in this episode

Megadragon8982026-01-21 18:56

Hajime is really good at taking care of Kids, he should have been a baby sitter lol.

Rirui being an over possessive daughter and Hajime an over father is hilarious. Nice that she made a friend, want to see Anya more, i like the little serious moments every now and then for example when Anya said she wished to be a blacksmith before her grandma died.

mlcarson2026-01-21 19:46

I'm really liking this anime. Riuri is just hilarious with her talking of herself in the third person, her complete incompetence in the dungeon, and her reaction when she thinks that her precious egg has become the breakfast meal. That gave me memories of the chicken incident in Summer Pockets...

Gloryblackjack2026-01-21 19:55

I literally went "OH ITS TOTOR-oh" when that thing popped up and I think that describes my opinion in the episode

aramatheis2026-01-21 20:47

This is getting out of hand. Now there are two of them!

Muffin-zetta2026-01-21 20:54

Bet a third daughter is going hatch from that egg

Korynaut2026-01-21 21:08

From the game Stardew Valley I know that there are rare and precious eggs becoming little dragons which grow up amongst the chicken and ducklings. Poor Hajime, happy Riuri!

redlaWw2026-01-21 22:23

Watching the OP, I was thinking they were going to take the Outbreak Company approach to dwarves, but no, it looks like Hajime has picked himself up a second daughter.

AceSoldia2026-01-21 22:35

It's such a cute show just gotta remember to ignore the succubus part 😂

IceSmiley2026-01-22 01:15

The weird forest Rurui went to seemed like she wandered into One Piece with all the strange animals and giant sea turtle. It looked fun and I wish the show took place there.

Rurui looked like she wasn't friends with Anya anymore when Hajime hugged her. I thought Anya was really in danger! I also wonder if Rurui produced a cold effect or if they were just doing a visual representation of getting a figurative cold stare.

It seems Anya more wants to be a forger/metal worker than an adventurer. If she wants to start working young, it would seem better if she maybe got an apprenticeship with an elf metal worker.

oneevilchicken2026-01-22 02:01

Fantasy spy x family but the friends name is Anya now.

The friend even in love with the dad character now.

SYZekrom2026-01-22 02:43

Surprisingly whimsical realm in that door

CrasianLe2026-01-22 03:12

Rirui is sooooo cute as a kid, like so cute I can't stand it, and how dhe talks too is soooo adorable! Its just a plus that she turns into a fully grown well endowed adult. Now, he "adopted" another sweet cute kid. How she got jealous of Anya when Hajime saved her was too cute too. Even the way they get eaten by a smile is cute. I am genuinely enjoying this anime

Fools_Requiem2026-01-22 03:29

The second she said she wanted something that explodes, I knew they were just going to give her water. Love that her power currently amounts to plant watering.

IntroductionRare52712026-01-22 03:47

This series should just be called adventurer kindergarten for how it's going down lol. Dude is going to have like 30 village kids to babysit by the end of this

NoHead17152026-01-22 04:12

This is the daily grind of babysitting. The grannies in this show are pretty quick to talk money. Rirui continues to be the precious little gremlin. And now we have two of 'em.

Very enjoyable series so far.

fuzzynyanko2026-01-22 05:31

I was getting nervous about the end of episode 1, but I'm glad that this ended up being a really cute show

Dry_Faithlessness3082026-01-22 09:52

When I saw the premise for this show I knew it was gonna be either a really bad fetish fantasy or a super wholesome slice of life.

I am so happy its wholesome, its nice to see an actual father daughter relationship between the two and we actually get an ADULT mc with other ADULT women, they don't all look like theyre 12.

Just nice to see an escape from the normal copy and paste high-school isekai fetishized fantasy bs they pump out every year.

DrZoark2026-01-22 09:56

Ha ha, it was a fun episode.

Muted-Ambassador-3752026-01-23 10:12

I loved how here the kids have to go through an enchanted Fay Forest until they naturally come across their element or, if they are lucky, even a spirit. This is so much better than touching a crystal for the 100th time.
