I think there’s gonna be twist at the end where the pope is about to die but turns his weapon into its shield form to save himself . And everyone including the followers are gonna see it, and realize what kind hypocritical asshole their pope is. (They said the weapon was built to mimic the heroes and that includes the shield right? Unless the creators didnt like the shield as well?)
@@rexerator There is one thing known for sure. Pope's not the one to break his own code of honour. You'll see in the next episode :) So, you'll probably already seen it. He could have changed his weapon to Shield and survive Blood Sacrifice, but he didn't since he had his code. He was a vilain, yeah, but damn he was true to his beliefs too :)
Jose Mendoza it is, but that’s why what he’s saying is hollow if that makes sense. Like the fact that they know he doesn’t live by the values he preaches, his words are empty, hollow, not filled with truth.
"I shan't stand for this! You manipulate us for your own selfish goals, and get rid of us as soon as you're done? That's evil, through and through! As a hero, I cannot overlook it!" *looks over at his party and sees Myne is there* Mm-hmm.
@@knju1monsterhunt656 I really didn't want to go there. he's just so bloody dense, probably because all of his blood goes to the same head you mentioned. you opened up a real bag of worms, starting sexual jokes around me.
actually its worse he's straight up delusion. Literally not being able to believe anythingbadof woman and the like it kinda why he got reincarnated there too.
My God what in the world is naofumi's back made out of. Any normal humans should've broken due to the sheer amount of carrying he has to do for every useless character in this show.
I mean if you’ve seen just how much weight people who have to carry a ton of stuff every day can carry on their backs then it’s not that surprising. That being said, said people end up with bone deformations in old age so... lol
That's pretty much the show in a nutshell. All the characters are useless blank slates with no character to make the mc and other two companions look good.
STRIKING GAMER No, this is just you insulting him to distract the rest of us from the fact that you obviously didn’t know what he meant by “sword, lance, arch”.
If Tales of the Abyss has taught me anything it's to be wary when the church has immense power within the state. To remember that the church is run by people just as capable of having agendas just like any politician or king. And to be especially worried when the church has its own standing military.
That applies to nearly every organization of people in the real world too, infiltration exists. Teachers are supposed to teach yet some dont care to, some politicians dont care about serving the people, some cops dont care about protecting the peace, and some citizens dont want to live in peace. An org can have great values and goals but people have to execute them, some do and some do the exact opposite.
They made Naofumi more soft in the anime. In the manga he's more dark, and tells the spear hero in this scene "why should I help you? I see no difference between you and the pope. You can go die, for all I care" with a sinister face with bloodlust background.
@@0Sloppenheimer actually, in his Japan, he also treated girls like being in a dating sim H visual novel. ... Lets say that he should have played School Days...
The point-blank difference is simple: Shield is using his OWN strength - Vs - The "Holy Chump" borrowing/stealing the strength lf his fanatics/zealots.
I still can't believe Filo shares a voice actress with Veronica from Fire Emblem Heroes. She sounded exactly like Veronica this episode whereas normally she is upbeat.
It amazes me how dense one character can be. And to think, HE ACTUALLY GETS DUMBER FROM HERE! That said, I do like what the anime does with Naofumi and his party and makes them pretty much reflect the audience in how they react to Spear idiot and his party at this point: annoyed, tired, and just waiting for them to get what they deserve. Don't get me wrong. I love hating those two and counting down to when they pay for the crap they've caused Naofumi and the kingdom in general.
The pope does realize that the only reason he has that defensive power is because of the “devil of the shield,” right? Correct me civilly if I am wrong!
@@Masra94 as far as I know he can't use the shield because their religion is "The church of the three heros," the artefact or what not, that he wields was made to copy only the sword, bow and spear hero's abilities.
@@Masra94 No, actually it has been stated the Pope could have withstood Blood Sacrifice if he used the shield, and the artefact was created way before the three heroes church, and can mimic the shield. However-the pope has so much of a god complex and is so determined to abolish the shield that he *won't* use the shield, even when he needs it.
I think one of the reasons the other heroes are weaker is due to the fact that they treat this like an RPG game instead of real life, where all you need to get stronger is fight monsters. Naofumi both trains and realizes that there are actually consequences for his actions.
I feel so bad for Naofumi and his party right now. They probably feel like the only normal people here, meanwhile literally everybody else are either diluted or foolish in some way; Motoyasu with his video game Superhero problem, Malty with her 'next Queen' delusion, even the Pope’s anti-Shield-Demon-God complex. There's just so much going on it's almost funny
Form my manga reader's can we all agree that the anime is taking a good turn Adding more actions in the fights than in the manga And Nafomi scolding all the heros and not just the spear hero and being so calm
I seriously love the battle theme. But I guess that's not fair because I read the LN first and never thought they'd use this kind of theme. It's so... middle eastern? And I strangely am in love with it. But to each their own I guess
All I see is a child fighting against a professional fighter... Pro is "what is this child doing..." While the child is trying to punch and knock over the pro.
Oh, ofc they made the Pope evil... what a shocker... Actually I was hoping that for once they wouldn’t do the tired “the Pope is actually evil” cliche but you know, whatever.
@@accelerator8558 Then you should also dislike government, police, military, education, corporations, social work organization, and basically any other big organizations.

Don't tell me the princess is on Naufumi's side now. She is still the one who falsely accused him of raping her. The pope had nothing to do with that. And what's with the heroes getting along like best friends immediately after Naofumi was proven innocent. That takes time. Sorry, that's just bad writing. But it's still better than GOT season 8.
