The whole castle raid was way more badass in the novels. Kazuma rubbing his back on Chris chest (which lead to them getting discovered) was really stupid but acceptable. In the novel, Kazuma and Chris succesfully infiltrate the castle, they get discovered afterwards. Kazuma and Chris entered a treasure room. Before going for the necklace, Chris wanted to find the other divine item (remember it was two items that Chris was looking for, and she thought the other one could be there). Once inside the treasure room, Kazuma notices a hentai magazine. He grabs it... and that triggers the alarm. During the fight, Kazuma uses the skill 'Bind' a lot against the guards (the ropes made by 'Bind' are not just regular ropes, they are magical ropes which are more durable. They are strong enough to restrain monsters). Once the guards are tied up, he uses 'Drain Touch' on them. Kazuma also uses 'Create Earth' and 'Create Wind' combo (two skills he has in novels that are never shown in the anime). Chris role was definitely minimized in the anime. She helps dealing with the guards that are mages and slows down the guards while Kazuma is doing the close quarter combat. They were both pretty well balanced for this mission. Kazuma also froze Mitsurugi's throat after choking him with water. It was almost flat out murder. Kazuma said to Claire that he "probably" won’t die if they tend to him immediately. Kazuma stated that defeating Mitsurugi would lower the moral of the guards, and he was right... The guards were understimating him at first, after beating Mitsurugi, the guards started to fear him. There was a moment when Rain was about to attack Kazuma with a spell by using her staff, but Kazuma uses his 'Snipe' skill and destroys the orb in her staff (rendering it useless). Finally, the reason Kazuma did a 180 in this episode is because of the Vanir mask which gives him increased stats and durability under the full moon. He even starts speaking like Vanir after he beats Claire and feeds off of negative emotions when he waterboards Mitsubishi.
This anime mostly about comedy my guy ,the changes already clear when season 1 got announced. We have some badass moment here and there so dont take it to heart. Beside, this is an anime and it purpose is always promote the source material You want more plot then read the source!
Not to mention in the light novel the shit talking and trash treatment Kazuma took for failing on the demon lord attack and catching the noble thief feels so much worse than on the anime so him being so badass in the castle infiltration is a much needed payoff.
The mask doesn't seem like it actually does anything, it seems like a placebo affect. Kazuma doesn't do anything he can't normally do, he just actually had the confidence to use his abilities.
The author said if it wasn't for Aqua, Kazuma would've defeated the Demon King within a few months, glad to see the serious side of him this episode (even with the mask buff)
I don't remember that happening in the novels though... Kazuma's buffs were implied to come from all the vitality he'd drained from all the soldiers, if I remember right. And also, his M.O. in then novels was: Cast Bind on soldier (which consumed most of his mana), drain the bound enemy to replenish the lost mana. Rinse and repeat.
the mask doesn't any big buff, it just sligtly ups confidences and gives better skin care routine under the moonlight just the little boost in confidence is enought to make kazuma lock in
Did anyone forget Chris is Eris goddess in disguise, and Eris is the Goddess of luck, thats why Kazuma Lost in rock paper scissors against her, no matter how great luck has Kazuma, Eris controla the world Luck You can't win against that
@@vegassincity702 Well Iris confess to Kazuma and Kazuma told her, she will always be like a little sister to him, Darkness almost raped Kazuma and Kazuma didn't really want to break Megumin's heart, and we'll Megumin is the winner on this ship war.

Probably changed it because if you include those scenes it would be more or less than 30mins.

In the manga was also epic, kazuma not just drain touch Chris, he overpowerd her and Mitsurugi

Kazuma got nerf by his party😂😂😂😂
love to see Kazuma turn into *_Stylish Bandit Slayer_* with that evil laugh 🤣
Kazuma is the original, Shadow is the copy
@@michiorarimsama7179 the laugh was animated first though
Here it is. Kazuma showing how amazing he actually is. Funnily enough if he went solo he'd be a top tier adventurer for sure
anime did him dirty in this episode, in LN he literally toyed the whole castle
Iris is too precious she must be protected hope we see more of her in the future
iris is that silver thief tho
@@fahrulbaidavi4025 thats Eris
The fact is she is one of the strongest in this story too..........
She's like the most wholesome character in the anime.
she will be in 5 season
Thank god there's actually someone that realized vanir's mask gave kazuma buffs
when someone also watches konosuba for the plot:

Actually I’m pretty sure it was stated to only give him more confidence not a buff, although it’s kinda a buff but not a buff in his power
the mask doesn't any big buff, it just sligtly ups confidences and gives better skin care routine under the moonlight
just the little boost in confidence is enought to make kazuma lock in
I love the upload time keep it up I love your vids
For a second, i thought kazuma was about to show his serious side but well still kazuma-san😂
Did anyone forget Chris is Eris goddess in disguise, and Eris is the Goddess of luck, thats why Kazuma Lost in rock paper scissors against her, no matter how great luck has Kazuma, Eris controla the world Luck You can't win against that
thanks for reminding, forgot about that part
I just googled pictures of both of them and I feel dumb that I never noticed the resemblance .
So many people forgot about drain touch
Kazuma was on fire in this episode, he is truly on his top condition 🔥
does this mean kazuma and iris will be together?
i actually thought he will end up with either megumin, dustiness, or eris
You want some spoiler I hear from a comment?
The closest to a couple Kazuma have is Megumin>Iris>Darkness
Though the LN is on an open ending about the relationship
@@locatabor3682 go ahead
