Finally, the second cour begins! First few minutes had me worried we were getting a recap episode, but thank god that wasn’t the case. Love the new OP, and especially those accompanying visuals!

The developments in the second half of the episode legit had me in awe. I’m not sure why Ouken was seemingly putting up a weak front at first, but holy hell he made quick work of Kingbo when he decided to get serious, and the way he dealt non-lethal injuries and got off to the sight of Kingbo bleeding out was creepy af.

Based on the flashback, Kingbo is apparently the son of the crazed former king Bojji met out in the wilds episodes ago, so I’m glad it appears he isn’t fully dead yet. I need to know more about this guy. I have a feeling he might end up as a potential ally.

Fantastic episode as always!

That recap had everyone second guessing themselves lol

And after seeing his past poor Kingbo T^T

Ngl, They had me in the first half. xD

And the new Opening is Lit 🔥

I wanted to watch the new opening but it seemed to contain spoilers unlike the first one :( should have stuck to my own rule of skipping new openings xD

Those so called spoilers are very hard to understand though, the imagery seems to hint at something, but it's unclear whether it's this way or that way. And there's nothing that hasn't been already somewhat revealed, like Miranjo's past inside the void Daida is in, plus, they're showing a new male character that I can't identify. And I'm saying this from a complete anime-only angle.

I was thinking that maybe the new character is Bojji after they kill the demon and the curse is lifted? Thats only my guess cause of the teaser tho..

That's quite the interesting theory, and his warm but more tempered smile would match; thanks for sharing😊

it does show miranjo and bosse being childhood friends tho

But I saw Miranjo running through the forest hand in hand with a devil child...not Bosse, I think I missed child Bosse altogether.

Besides, such details don't count as spoilers but rather as teasers like in those well made and tasteful trailers they don't quite make anymore. I think many people nowadays can't tell anymore how much information is a hint, and how much a downright spoiler.

In the op i feel like the person child Miranjo is running with is the demon guy not Bosse

Miranjo has the same hair as bojji's mom

Yeah in episode 1-11 some of the characters felt like bad people but is actually a good guys doing human things and there's no villain but here we get to see the action

Out of context spoilers are not spoilers at all imo

i just watch it once and always skip it in the future

I kinda miss the opening 1 already also I thought this episode is a recap so I'm just gonna go to the next episode but then I just read the comment oh the recap is only 5 mins episode 1-11

That new OP was one of the only things I was able to remember watching this episode... It's what I get for talking to two people and reading a Manhwa at the same time I watched the episode😂

about that Kingbo's dad though... is it the crazy guy who dance with Bojji?

o that was the guy

That guy who sat at the king's throne and got tortured by that silent guy had a little flashback knowing that his father destroyed kingdom and this what he become is a little interesting

seems like it

Op Ouken just too Op

I wasn't too worried seeing how fast they were going through the events also since it was told through Kage's point of few. I actually went to check if it would be a longer episode after the recap was done though but unfortunately it wasn't.

they rarely ever do that
the after recap long episodes thing only happens sometimes with certain animes with big budget but i'm glad they got enough budget to make this longer then 12-13 episodes its gonna be straight up fire ahead

I am guessing KingBo actually died cause he got the small cut scene that most side side chara get before death, and probably Miranjo is like doing some zombie shit...

That cutscene can very well be the teaser into what would motivate a heel-face-turn for this character and start explaining his motivation for his past deeds/crimes.
Really curious as to why Ouken's so famous that he has Despa hyped and involved as well.

same but i was bored & lazy to do so i decided to stay & Boy!! am i glad i did :)

Oh yeah now that you mention it I can see the connection, it'll be interesting to see what's the story behind Kingbo and his father and if Kingbo really does become an ally, that little flashback really set a foundation for his character.

Damn, the story is getting better and better in the second half. I so curious to see how it's gonna end....Waiting for a week is very painful T^T lol

He will become Bojji's ally, Im having a strong feeling.
-Tragic past
-Defeated
-Bebin and serpent healing/helping him
All leads to him becoming an ally

not healing bebin straight up said bury him bebin doesn't know that he's alive but aside from the bebin part i agree with all you're saying cause i have the same feeling :)

all kings who reach the highest ranking & Get their wish granted either go mad or disappear from the looks of it it looks like every king kills his country & goes away would be awesome if we could see the story behind the rankings as this is called the ranking of kings lol!!

I can already see some character development incoming...

For a moment I thought it was .5 kun in disguise lol

and yes the concept and animation of this series never fail to disappoint me

I think the knight (Ouken?) has some kind double personality switch or something where One is aggressive super OP and the other is a scaredy cat... seems like a interesting character to me

I just thought he had social /performance anxiety LOL

would be awesome if this turned out to be true!!!

The recap got me like: They had us in the first half not gonna lie

But thankfully it was just a quick 4min recap

Same feeling bro

hahahahaha me too

i always thoguht this series was only gonna be 12 episodes but im glad its longer this series was a bit of a surprise since i think no one knew about it until it aired

I love seeing the opening

fro thinks so too!!!

How rare for you to make a comment this long... I guess it really is a New Year😮

Anyways, thanks for confirming that this is on it's second cour, I was genuinely unsure whether or not it will be having more. But yeah, classic Ousama Ranking giving us a fantastic episode😌

I do long comments on occasion. :p

glad I came to the comments... I was about to skip this episode

happy you didn't :)

Great review!

Suprised you didn't talk about despa's horse, lol. It legit had me laughing
