Diablo and company arrive at the royal capital. Alicia the Imperial Knight helps Lumachina collect evidence against the Church’s corrupt officials.
Episode 8 – “Visit to the Royal Capital”
Hmm.
I had hoped that when Demon Lord Ω’s story came closer to Lumachina confronting the sinful Church officials, the story would explain who’s in charge. Lumachina is the Head Priest, the one who leads the Church. The Cardinals answer to the Head Priest and run the administration and bureaucracy of the Church. Among the regular faithful, Lumachina appeared to be popular and beloved, yet they quickly turned on her at the command of the Head Cardinal Vishos. How did that happen? Demon Lord Ω gave us a big hint at the end of the last episode, with the image of a chained-up snake-type monster, but provided no answers this week.
That answer will be dark, and its revelation will happen during high drama. It’s too soon for those plot developments after the main characters just arrived in town for the final act. There are only two more episodes after this one, so we don’t have much time to work in fun moments either. Thankfully, the anime decided to give the audience a big dose of fanservice during Alicia’s reunion with Diablo and Rose’s need for Master’s “juice” to recharge her. Demon Lord Ω chose wisely in pairing these two for Diablo’s attention because they are the ones most devoted to the Demon Lord in a subservient way.
Heh.
I love this. Recurring jokes about Rem’s motion sickness are always welcome. There’s the royal city. What’s that spinning cloud up there? Ah. Not a friendly welcome from the Imperial Knights. There’s a difference between paranoia and cautiousness. What’s going on in the capital? Yay! Those guys gave up quickly after Alicia showed up. Rem is a smart cat girl. She wrote ahead to Alicia.
Alicia put Diablo and friends in a five-star hotel. Just how wealthy is Alicia? Ha! Diablo asked the same question. Uh oh. Rose activated her jealousy circuits. Crisis averted. These two are equally crazy about Diablo. Fun! And funny. Demon Lord Ω called back to Rem’s “death” in the covered wagon. Hahaha! Look at Horn’s belly! Let’s fire up all those pregnancy doujins… Shera ate until she was full! Has that ever happened before? Rem explains that Horn is forever young. Just look at Sylvie the Adventurer’s Guild Master. Horn is too young for a servant collar, Rose. Har. She only put it away because Diablo might need to “take responsibility” for three wives. Two is more than enough!
Oho. Time for nighttime shenanigans in Demon Lord Ω. Did Alicia get “bigger” since the last time we saw her? Or did her armor merely hide her endowments? Alicia is under house arrest, which explains why she’s not dressed up in armor. Diablo fears her the most as a “virgin killer.” She’s giving him the girlfriend experience like in a hostess bar. Meanwhile, the other girls want to sleep with each other. Their rooms are too large!
Hilarious. The Head Cardinal is vicious, er, Vishos. Alicia warns Diablo that the Knights have no authority over the Church’s internal actions. Even if she uncovers embezzlement and other crimes, the Kingdom can’t submit them to justice. Oh, right. Alicia worships demon lords so they can exterminate the mortal races when they return. Get to killing, Diablo!
Here we go! Time for Demon Lord Ω’s ACTION scene. The other girls are asleep, so that leaves Rose! Aha. Rose needs Diablo to recharge her. Rose is a smartphone with passive charging! But it only works when Diablo is awake. There’s always high-speed charging, though. Here comes the kinky stuff. Those holes in Rose’s back look like the right place, but what do you plug in there? Thirty minutes’ worth of vigorous action tops her up. Rose is unsure of the mechanics. Who’s the virgin killer now, Diablo?
Does Rose need to take off all her clothes? The correct holes are already out in the open. She must be thinking about some other holes… Diablo’s nose bleeds buckets. Clumsy fumbling for the right hole… Diablo did that on purpose! Of course, he didn’t. Right. Time for Diablo to “pour his magic” into Rose’s hole. That worked. We just saw Rose’s ahegao face… So, that’s what those holes are for. Way to go, Diablo. He filled Rose up to 120%.
That’s enough PLOT from Demon Lord Ω. Back to the plot. Alicia uncovered a wagonload of financial records showing bribery and embezzlement. Worse, she found records of ordered assassinations. Lumachina insists on excommunicating Vishos and his corrupt cardinals before Diablo removes them forcibly. That won’t end well.
Aha. That floating thing above the city is the Cathedral. Will Diablo make that thing fall in the endgame? Let’s see how Demon Lord Ω gets us there. Ugh. These praying people will become human shields. There’s Vishos and his crew. This guy will just lie straight through his teeth. There’s no point in this. Lumachina is too idealistic. Unfortunately, her faithful act more like brainwashed zombies. Still, Lumachina managed her arrest without anyone suffering an injury. That’s a miracle too. Horn escaped. It’s a key plot point here. Look! A magic elevator.
Next time, something with big teeth breaks its chains.
Artist 40原 (40hara pronounced shimahara) has Alicia showing her boy shorts with a teasing face in the end card. That’s not the disgusted face I’m accustomed to seeing, but it does match one of the faces his cute girl cat makes.
