I've said this in every anime I've reviewed, but I really like when a story expanded to their side characters as well, giving us glimpse of their lives. We get to see another side of Krusty in this episode, as he gained a "shield" from the NPC nobles. We also learned the nobles opinion on the adventurers, with a little request put out there also. I wanted to see more of the low leveled players, I hope they're okay. But I have a bad feeling, I think something ominous is approaching, after that beach scene and that ending.
