I enjoyed it.
+ I love Usato. I find him hilarious. His snarkiness and constant commentary are really funny. I also like him as a person too - his determination, his kindness, his desire to do his best and to help others were all great. But mostly I find him hilarious to watch. Him angrily writing in his journal during training, his back-talking Rose - hee.
Rose: Can you even imagine a world where every healer was like me?
Usato: Not if I want to sleep tonight.
+ My favourite relationship is Usato/Rose. "All I ever wanted was to be worthy of your trust. My tormentor and treasured teacher." I found her mentorship of him funny and increasingly touching, and I loved the growth in their relationship and where they ended the season. I love their fighting. I love Usato's backtalk. I love how they slowly end up caring. Usato tearing up both times Rose says something positive to him and Rose's quiet "Thanks for not dying on me." were touching.
+ Felm was great. I loved the reveal that the Black Knight was a woman. I loved the twist of Rose forcible conscripting her into the Rescue Team. I'm excited to see where this goes.
+ I don't really ship anything. Inukami/Usato - meh. I like the friendship but he doesn't seem that interested and her pressing of boundaries while funny in his reactions leave me cold because he doesn't reciprocate ever. Kazuki/Celia - meh. They were super background and I never really felt it.
+ Sadly this far Kazuki is eh, he's there but not much else. I like him fine but I just don't care about him as much. I hope he gets more to do in the next season.
+ Inukami's reaction to learning that they had been brought to this new world to be heroes was hilarious. (Loved Usato's reaction to her.) I love her constant glee and fangirling and just her joy at finding herself in her own isekai story. Relatable!
+ I loved Usato cheering on Inukami during their confrontation with the bandits. "You're like a human stun gun!" Ha!
+ Inukami and Usato's slap fight over petting Blurin was great.
+ I love how the demons consider the Rescue Team to be 'kidnappers' and see them as a great danger.
+ Usato's lack of situational awareness and inability to read a room made me shake my head so hard. Dude! Everyone, including the king, are very worried about your power and immediately jump into talk about hiding you away, are terrified of Rose when she shows up and actively lie to her face -- and somehow he doesn't pick up that he should maybe keep his mouth shut????
