Mariabelle and Hinata’s former party members come to Japan to drag the dark elf back to their world.
Episode 4 — “Visitors from Another World”
Hmm.
We’ve become familiar with Mariabelle’s jealous possessiveness through three episodes of Yandere Dark Elf. But did this episode introduce another love rival? And one whose love is as over-the-top as Mariabelle’s? Cecil, the priestess in Hinata’s Hero Party, could be just as heavily clingy as the dark elf! How? Three reasons.
First, she followed Hinata to his world, just as Mariabelle did. Do you know what I heard as Cecil explained how the government needed to keep parallel worlds secret? Blah, blah, blah. I bet Cecil lobbied to chase after Mariabelle to stop her from messing with Hinata. If Cecil couldn’t have Hinata, no one should.
Second, Hinata traveled with Cecil and Mei before they rescued Mariabelle from humans sexually harassing her, which the yandere dark elf recounted in episode 3. Was that enough time for the virtuous priestess to fall in love with the pure, pure boy who looks younger than his years suggest? Likely! Who’s to say Mei didn’t develop a crush on the tousled-haired human?
And third, Cecil used holy magic to cock-block Mariabelle. Twice! Suppose Cecil’s story about retrieving Mariabelle was the whole truth. Did she need to blast their feet with a light beam to stop them from kissing? Suspicious! Cecil’s holy chastity belt on Hinata’s crotch naturally flowed from her heavy-handed interruption.
Therefore, Hinata had better prepare himself for more sources of slightly heavy love. The Yandere Dark Elf should have the secondary title, The Yandere Human Priestess Next-Door!
Yandere Dark Elf Makes Me Go Heh.
Did Mariabelle think she could come to Hinata’s world without consequences? I’m sure she had tunnel vision. But Cecil and Mei have orders to return her to protect the secret about parallel worlds. Those two ruined the mood. Unforgivable! Whoa. Those aren’t bloodshot eyes. That’s just blood! Aw. Mei, the cat girl, plays peacekeeper between the dark elf and the tall, blonde priestess. Cecil’s actions caused a scene, so she didn’t keep secrets, did she?
Unwelcome Isekai Reunion in Yandere Dark Elf
Mariabelle is not happy about Cecil and Mei in Hinata’s apartment. It’s their “sacred love nest.” But Cecil and Mei must retrieve Mariabelle before her world collides with Hinata’s. Traveling between worlds is a crime in Yandere Dark Elf’s setting, but Mariabelle would receive a pardon. She won’t go! Hair tentacle yandere mode, activate! Cecil will use force if she must.
Uh oh. Trash-talking before a fight. Mariabelle accuses Cecil of hating dark elves. But Cecil says she likes them for their “virtuous mentality.” That excludes Mariabelle, though. Reeee! Mariabelle insults Cecil’s big ass, while Cecil cracks Mariabelle’s big boobs and even bigger mouth. Mei needs popcorn for this catfight! The familiar scene always ended the same way: Hinata played the peacemaker.
Here’s a naked flashback to Yandere Dark Elf’s first episode. Is there new nudity in this one? Hinata explains that Japanese people are much more accepting of visitors from another world than Cecil had feared. Above the controversy, Hinata likes the idea of Mariabelle staying in his world. He’ll “take responsibility” for anything that goes wrong. Trigger words! Can Cecil deny the Hero’s feelings? That’s it? Cecil and Mei will go home empty-handed? Oh. Cecil left a landmine. What? Good luck, Hinata. Mei knows what’s coming next.
A Yandere Dark Elf Needs Better Luck
Mariabelle unleashes her passion for Hinata. There it is! The yandere dark elf aims to collect his “responsibility.” She’s hungry for shota meat! Mariabelle wears the blue lingerie set she bought with Sakura. But not for long! She aims to go all the way! Blocked! Cecil installed a holy chastity belt! Ohohoho! Hinata’s purity remained, ahem, pure.
Wow. Worse news for Mariabelle. Cecil and Mei are her next-door neighbors! Cecil already knows all the neighborly protocols. The rest of Hinata’s party members will monitor Mariabelle “under government orders.” Stay thirsty, yandere dark elf!
The end credits continue to remove Mariabelle’s clothes. I’m explaining, not complaining!
Yandere Dark Elf: She Chased Me All the Way From Another World! (Chotto dake Ai ga Omoi Dark Elf ga Isekai kara Oikakete Kita) streams on Hidive in the “least censored” web version in Japanese audio and English subtitles. These reviews will rely on the uncensored AnimeFesta versions.
What do you think? Does Mariabelle have valid reasons to suspect Cecil of trying to steal Hinata from her? Or does Mariabelle spray jealousy in all directions indiscriminately? What I know: Cecil is the only one who can access Hinata’s mini-Hinata. How long can Hinata survive the battle between Holy Backstory and Dark Plot?
