EPISODE REVIEWS
This is the episode where the plot machinery kicks in but Krai's solution is just, to run away, and it's hilarious every time. He gets buried under requests a rival family, a shady weapon dealing, a dragon grudge, an invite to a tournament and instead of picking one like a normal party leader, he just declares a vacation. It's a great character beat because it's not laziness exactly, it's pure conflict-avoidance dressed up as decisiveness, and everyone around him treats it like a genius strategic move.
This episode is relatively funny. I just can't help but laugh at how ridiculously good Krai is at causing trouble. The fact that everyone around him thinks it's all part of some deep, elaborate plot makes it even funnier. On another note, though, the story's progression still isn't at its best. It's still pretty slow without much happening, but it's not bad.
It's a very funny episode where Tino, with his crazy antics, steals the show. I found it hilarious when she wears the mask, as it adds a funny touch to the story. I also like Krai's charismatic and laid-back personality when dealing with his problems and coming out on top.
