I enjoyed this show, but it was solidly average for me. I think this type of premise needs more intricate character development. While the characters aren't cliches or paper-thin, I still feel like any issue gets resolved immediately without much friction and everyone seems to act purely in service of MC rather than in parallel with their own internal lives

This matched An Archdemon's Dilemma as one of the positive surprises of the season for me, though for wholly different reasons. I've always enjoyed "find the diamond in the rough" stories, and that aspect carried the series for me early on, but as the story progressed I also came to appreciate what Richard describes about Ars learning to be a leader. I'll definitely be back if a second season is animated.

"If"? I think you mean "when"?

Really wasn't expecting to enjoy this but there was just the right amount of sincerity, medieval fantasy world-building, and good direction to make this really enjoyable and make me glad that we're getting another cour right when things were getting good.

Also, Licia is the best.
