Well that episode was awesome.  Pretty enjoyable fight there, nice to see him hold his own. I hope he keeps using that sword.

Well, someone certainly enjoyed watching that fight. Also seeing Lili next to a tall character was kinda hilarious.

That sword was hefty as all hell and the part where Bell fire blasted the Minrotaur was as all hell. I noticed that after the second fireball the minotaur's hand blew off, a nice touch.

Syr being Freya makes a lot of sense even aside from the name. She specifically made sure that Bell read that grimoire. Freya just dropping it off in a place where Bell might pick it up would have been a pretty lovely plan.

I've got money down on Syr being a 'part' of Freya but gained of enough sentience to rebel once we reach endgame. Like Tenchi in Tokyo only in a better show.

Freya's eyes flash on screen during syr's introduction. My guess is that she's being unwittingly controlled by Freya so we can get a tear jerker "I love him but a god has been manipulating me this whole time" moment. Her being actually Freya is a close 2nd though. http://youtube.com/watch?v=2EaRpoDbwaw http://i.imgur.com/0WJ3gS9.jpg

It could also be that Syr was split off from Freya at some point making Syr her own separate personality and individual, that is still being subtly controlled by Freya.

How do ranks work again? Do they reset when you level up?

doomisland posted:How do ranks work again? Do they reset when you level up? Yes they do, but you retain the amount of said stat. So if you have like 900 str at S rank, it will reset to the lowest rank but stay at 900. Also you get a bit of a boost each level so even though your stats stay the same when you level up, they are more effective.

Yeah, vol 5 is even better. At least as a book. Should be eps 10-13 or so. Vol 6 is probably on par with vol 3 (the Minotaur fight) as well, although it won't be animated this time.

I think the show (and the books) have made it fairly clear that grinding isn't the way to rank up. You need to perform some spectacular task -- which is what Aiz did when she solo'd that Bone Lord on level 37 to make level 6. This episode was an obvious setup for Bell ranking up to level 2. He performed is spectacular task by defeating the trained and armed Minotaur. I expect to see him being praised for making level 2 so quickly in the next episode, etc. Freya's has ownership in Bell -- whether he knows it or not. He's unknowingly partaken of Freya's help for a number of things now. First, she set him up to fight that ape-monster at the festival. Second, she gave him a very pricey book to learn his "firebolta" spell. Now, he's ranked up because of a series of events that lead to his defeating a powerful mob in the dungeon. At some point in the future, Freya is going to come to collect on his "debt". I don't think it will matter that neither he nor Hestia knew that Freya was helping. He owes her regardless. Also, seems like Freya has actually done more for Bell than Hestia except for the knife. In the books, they make it clear that Freya is only interested in Bell because she likes to collect pretty and sparkly things. They keep her interest until she finally acquires them. Then, she'll play with them for a while and then add the sparkly to her collection and slowly forget about it. I don't know what that means, exactly, but it doesn't sound pleasant in the long run. I just wonder how much actual control over where Bell ends up that Bell will actually have. Can one god take another god's familia member against that god's will? Will the things Freya has been doing somehow affect Bell's will in some way beyond his control? I can't imagine Freya's doing all these things on the slim hope that Bell will simply dump Hestia for Freya. There must be some kind of control she's embedded in her acts that are going to eventually ensnare Bell beyond his will. How hard it to change familias?

Volumes 6-7 cover that, but they won't be animated with this season (if ever). Basically you can't change Familia without the permission of the original god, but there are various ways to get that permission.

Myurton posted:You can rank your stats up by grinding cause each stat has a Z to S rank or something like that, but to gain an actual level up you need to do something significant like say soloing a powerful monster. Heck, I could see a whole business being formed from something like that -- just like what Freya's minion did with the Minotaur and Bell. "We'll setup your spectacular level-up adventure for a price." A group goes in, levels up a cow, the adventurer goes in and solo-kills the cow and ding! All for 500,000 whatevers. I remember a guy in Asheron's Call agro'ing a cow and laying down. The cow killed him and leveled. Some poor, unsuspecting player would pick on that cow and ... well, it probably wasn't pretty. Another thing: Aiz Wallenstein seems to be fairly young herself. She can't be past her early twenties at the most. We really need a bit more background on her because she doesn't make a lot of sense either. She's so young and yet the highest level adventurer. Either other's aren't serious or she's been adventuring since she was like 8 or something. Seems odd. She obviously knows what needs to be done to level up too, though. Aiz said she was trying to "catch up" to someone like Bell. If she's the highest level adventurer, then I wonder what that even could mean. I think it would be cool if Lilly was able gain XP while partying with Bell. You'd think the supporter would need some skill -- even if it is for evading. I think the show or book indicated that even the supporters in Loki's familia were level 3 or higher for the high-end adventures.

Aiz is like 16 or 17, her age is stated in the light novels, and yes she started adventuring when she was like 8 or 9, which is also stated. As for who she is trying to "catch up to" I'd bet it's her dad, since her dad who was an adventurer is the one that she admired. This is all in the Sword Orario spin off series and the light novels.

As for poaching members from familia or leaving, it seems like its something hard to do, since Bell probably would have found a way to get Lili out of the literal Drug Cartel familia if he could have done it.

That fight was Dragon Ball Z as all hell, down to the shirt damage. Somehow satisfying to both watch that kid get his rear end kicked *and* watch him kick rear end, although he really shouldn't have that arm anymore. Like, basic physics, it should've gotten torn off when the minotaur held him up.
