Does it got a new OP & ED?

[Algent]

So after Krusty sister-zoning a princess, Rudy got dog-zoned ?

Also, murlocs invasion, seriously ? Dammit I didn't knew this F** existed in EQ


edit: A friend just pointed me something I missed in the op, damn him.

[Eclipze]

Ho ho...

Spoiler:

This confirms what we knew from last week. I just hope he survives the fishmen invasion.

Those are sahuagins, they appears as early as D&D.



Also, this is the song that played in my head during the invasion.

...Well, that looks like an Event™. As odd as it is to say, it's actually a good thing the training camp was there. Normally the first time adventurers in a game would hear about something like this would be when NPCs would start saying stuff like "Did you hear that an army of Sahaugins has attacked some of our towns along the coast? They're moving inland and killing everything they encounter! Rumor has it they're being lead by (insert cause of invasion here). If only someone could stop them!" That would be bad in Elder Tale, given that the NPCs here are actually, you know, alive.

Same thing, Warcraft just changes some common monster names.
Like traditional Owlbear = Moonkins
Sahuagin = murloc

Animation sucks balls in this one

Spoiler for This episode:

Finally, made it through the latest episode after some delays with 13 and 14.

So the Scrub Team clears as far into the dungeon as possible and a band of friends is born. However, the rules of the world continue to rear its ugly head, not only in the side of Rudy (cannot be added to the Friends List) but also in the side of Shiroe (Regan's Spirit Theory). Fortunately, all Shiroe needs to relieve himself of his stress is news of Minori's success and having fun while in the training camp.

Meanwhile, misfortune shows up in Marielle's front when a buttload of Sahuagin crept up into the shoreline. (That's what you get for cooking that much crab! )

[Daisu]

I enjoyed the episode, I do not think it an event but what might happen if you farm for days at the same spot, kinda like how giant boar shown up.

That was a diplomatic incident!

Watch the preview. It's an event. Or a massive alteration of the world's systems causing demihumans to gather and attack in armies on multiple fronts. I'm betting on event.

Technically it is an event that will be explanined next ep but giant board is just a rare mob boss that appear in fixed rate

[Estavali]

Didn't notice this until someone pointed it out in another forum:

I was thinking of an event because "Return of the Goblin King" doesn't sound like a rare monster just appearing. It sounds more like a quest event from an RPG. Poor Rudy. He's made friends, but he doesn't want others to know he's one of the People of the Land.

these dues look more like kuo-toa then Sahuagins.

IIRC WoW renamed them to avoid copyright lawsuits.

DnD can be quite aggressive regarding its copyrights.

Not sure if "Sahuagin" is public domain or if it's owned like "Beholder" though

No, NHK just about never changes OPs and EDs for their shows.

Spoiler for episode live reactions:

The times I put down might be different from your players'.

00:13 Looks like Kawara's there

00:16 Cat-samurai-guy from Black Sword Knights is there, too. According to the JP Wiki, he has a name, but I can't tell what it is.

02:00 Wow, they actually made it look like there were a lot of Sahuagin. This is why I hate water.

03:12 Minori. -_-

03:44 When Minori said that she wanted to learn everything, I could only think about the one scene from the movie The Goonies where a guy tells everything, starting from the day of his birth.

09:19 Lightning Chamber looks pretty cool

10:07 Oh hey, they did the skeletons-reflecting-in-katana thing from the LN picture.

10:19 Oy, Touya, don't turn your back to the enemy after you've aggro'd them!

that Sahuagin so happy.

12:39 Hmm hmm, "Just being able to write with it isn't enough."

19:32 Rudy likes those hot sandwiches.

19:47 Discussions about food are the best.

21:22 Aww, no war horse for Shoryuu. I wanted to see a war horse.

Next ep preview:

24:17 Looks like Souji (and the WWB, considering Isami's there and the OP shows the entire group fighting) arrived at the Palace.
