Stitches!

Miharu is finally here! Man, I forgot how much of a yapper he is when he was first introduced, and the dude has absolutely no filter! I love how he got everyone correct, except for Kan who he thought was a Kappa and for assuming that Moi and Nico are dating.

Both girls look amazing in their swimsuit, but goddamn, Nico! I've read the manga, and even I was caught off guard by that. You really can't blame the boys for being completely stunned after the swimsuit reveals!

So it turns out that dude Nico waved to at the start of the episode was actually a warlock waiting to ambush them. That dude's magic looked very sus that I was worried we'd get some tentacle shenanigans this episode. Drowning Nico isn't better tho.

Can we just take a second to admire the fact that Moi was literally ready to cut off his legs just so he could escape and get to Nico? He was clearly about to do it, if Miharu didn't show up.

Let's fucking go Miharu! The new OP kinda spoils that he's a familiar, but I hope his powers are still a surprise.

I love how this show turns an absolutely brutal scene into something hilarious. I was genuinely laughing out loud at Miharu moaning and lack of phrasing while absorbing Moi's energy. Even Nico realizes how lewd that scene was. xD

And there's the reveal. Anyone who's paying attention in the OP would've already guessed that he's a vampire. But just like the other familiars, Vampires have changed drastically changed, and no longer drinks blood.

Goddamn, Miharu! Can we just chill for a sec? The dude is absolutely ready to kill that Warlock. Thankfully, they managed to figure out a way to neutralize him without killing him thanks to Nico and Nemu's quick thinking.

Just like that other Warlock, it looks like this guy was also pushed to the brink because of his circumstances and was offered salvation by the same shadowy person in exchange for capturing Nico. At least this guy managed to start all over again.

The reveal of what Miharu's dad looked like 5 years ago was hilarious! It turns out he only looked like that because he was siphoning energy from him consistently. Meanwhile, Miharu's mom is completely untouched. xD

There it is! Moi's house still has a couple of empty rooms, so they can totally take Miharu in! That farewell scene with Miharu's parents was pretty hilarious! I did not expect that boar to come out of nowhere!

This series is generally pretty tasteful and wholesome but then you get our two witches in bikini's flaunting so much skin and cleavage and you can't help but be as stunned speechless as the boys. The best part is Nico was so hyped for it and was jealous of them giving Nemu so much panning shots instead of her lol.

My Vampire Femboy can't be this honest, sadistic, and masochistic all at the same time!

Once again a reminder that, as horny as Nico is for Moi, she's just as horny for quality BL involving Moi lol.

I'm curious if Nico will try to redeem/save the Warlock too.

I feel like Miharu revealing that his dad still sees his mom as a woman was code for his parents still having an active sex life despite the dad looking like a silver fox now. Honestly it's refreshing to actually see a two-parent household for once in the show considering all the single dads and moms we've seen up to this point (which I guess means Nico's mom doesn't actually have a Harem of single dads on her speed dial...maybe).

I thought it was cute how Moi wrapped Nico up in a hoodie after pulling her out of the water...and Wolf did nothing for Nemu lol

Nico's mom

My money is on Nico's mom and Moi's dad hooking up still and when the gang winds up going to meet her....they stumble across them on a date....and Nico and Moi's brains explode.

I was genuinely laughing out loud at Miharu moaning and lack of phrasing while absorbing Moi's energy.

It gets even funnier when you see that that is one strategically placed magical glow :D

And it was such a tonal whiplash to go from, "oh shit our friend just got magically impaled!" to "OoOOoO MORIiIIIHIIittooOO!".

From screaming in agony to screaming in ecstasy, everyone must've been soooooooo CONFUSED!

Vampires

Reminds me of that psychic vampire from the show Midnight, Texas.

BUT, and if you were watching during the healing scene, they still need to make contact with pulse points and/or major veins/arteries when draining someone like how Miharu was doing!

It's still pretty cool how they've shown the evolution of all of these various magical species alongside baseline humans.

figure out a way to neutralize him

I wonder if this is the reverse of how the Prime Warlock is actually GIVING people powers?

circumstances

That guy legit when through a shitty life, got preyed upon by a Mr Morden level jackass, and then was used like a disposable pawn.

I kind of feel for him because who hasn't had to deal with similar levels of bullying or times in their lives where they seemed to just keep failing no matter what they did?

It was very nice of Miharu's dad to recognize those circumstances and to offer him a second chance at life, in a much better place where he would be appreciated, and cared for.

I kind of hope we get to see him again at some point because having a former Water Warlock on their side seems to be veeerrry useful IMO.

Dad...Mom...

That just goes to show you how very loving and healthy Miharu's parents are.

His mom probably gave a bit of her life energy bringing him into this world and so I wouldn't be surprised if the way she looks now is actually aged up from how she looked before.

His dad witnessed this happening and then said, "No let me this time" and took it on himself so that she wouldn't have to....but when Miharu's powers spiked exponentially during puberty....he didn't stop at all and stood steadfast in continuing to carry that weight because he wanted to protect his wife AND his son.

And NONE of all of that got in the way of the love that they all had for each other, which is really sweet because most writers would just run with that to screw stuff up even more but they...they stayed strong as a family and that's rather beautiful.

His dad does kill it as a silver fox though and most of the comments here totally agree that Miharu's mom has got it going on.

Boar

Boars are SCARY!

the girls

Yes they were indeed cute and I loved looking at how they drew both them and the boys and how they made them differ in terms of musculature and curves.

Although there were a few frames where Nico's and Nemu's torsos were just copy pasted lol

Plus Nemu seems to have gotten a bit more of a butt than Nico and conversely, Nico was a bit more gifted up top.

It would've been funny if Nemu spontaneously turned into a cat the second Wolf showed up in swim trunks and THAT was how everyone found out.

I refuse to make the innuendo that some of you are expecting because I'm watching Power Rangers right now and my thoughts are nothing but pure.

Also was anyone else reminded of Summer Wars by parts of this episode?

farewell scene

Miharu all but said, "Have fun shagging mom while I'm gone!" just before he got hit by that boar lol

Thanks for the stitches. Although I wish you would have done the other panning shot of Nemu as well.
