A king of Demon fresh from the lottery; Dragon goes house hunting episode 6 impression
Sunday was nearly over in my place and yup another dragon house hunting episode finally came out so after finding time to watch, lets take a look on what is the latest episode about. The scene started with Letty made a serious note that he was having a big trouble. Turns out, he was flat broke after spending his money for importing ice for Pip and buying cold medicine. So Dearia told him with a plain face.. from this moment we will use this 23 minutes or so for you to work and get some earning xD. Ok so that's basically the premise of this episode, unlike the episodes before, the six episode of Dragon goes house hunting became Dragon goes job hunting yay :D. Ehem sorry for my senile old man joke haha just for this episode, the orcs out of nowhere change the initial title from "A dragon in trouble" into "baito suru(バイトする)". After a bit of google searching "baito" mean job and "suru" is kind of "doing" so it just say "Dragon doing work"
Come on worrywart show your worth at least once xD |
Dearia warped Letty and Pip to a trade market in a town called Pecunia. He explained that the town was a place where many creatures from monsters to human can met and trade valuables without worry. Now Letty like usual being a worrywart and thinking that the human would only tried to obtain his hide and claws. He even tried to walk away slowly just after Dearia agreed that the place might be full with vile human. Letty and company then went to an owl like creature named Amon. The first job that he gave to Letty was producing block material from the woods. The block materials itself was used to make a lego like building for adventurer and it was in high demand at the moment. So, after a real hard work, the pay was very small and despite Letty's protest, Amon said that his work was shoddy and not efficient enough to get better payment. The second job was as a hotel receptionist in Pecunia hotel. However, since he was a dragon, most of the costumers ran away when they saw him. Talk about bad luck and irony lol. He was scared to heroes or hunters but the kind and ordinary folks were afraid to his look.
I don't know which was funnier. Letty's expression or Dearia behind him creating smoke for his entrance |
His next available job was to help Harry Potter ..I mean a summoner to help him appear in front of his "friends". It seems that he want to prove that he can summon a red dragon. Although by end, the summoning was actually a failure because he was not scary at all xD. Fortunately, little Pip saved the day using his extra loud screaming; which made all of the human shocked and passed out and it made him looks menacing for the other human. After getting some money, Letty took another job as a magician spell target..Well the funny thing is the magician was trying to check whether his new spell could pierce a dragon skin and Letty just realized it a bit too late xD
My curiosity makes me unable to sleep xD |
While waiting for Letty finishing his "work", a lilith (a succubus like lady) came to Dearia. Just for a refresher, Dearia was not just a home architect. He also had a side job as a Demon lord. If we think about Demon lord; which usually related to the big bad of demon's clan, the ruler of the evil, we will think that Dearia was so powerful and had millions of demon as his henchmen. The fact was he never wanted to be one and he did become one via a random roulette prize while searching for a certain book explaining about how dramatic a ratatosk's bite can be xD. What I love was not only the current episode explained about Dearia past as a demon lord, but it also make fun of it. It was so laughable that demon lord title means nothing more than a title you won at a lottery lol. In fact he just walk away from his inauguration. Ahem.. I wont spoil the last part of the episode but I'll make sure to write about it directly in the next week review :)
He looks menacing and bigger :D definitely not Letty |
Episode review
This episode was different in focus like the last episode. It branches to other territory than searching house and since there were still more episode to be covered, it possible that the writer of the show tried to made the plot longer. I am not saying it was all bad thou. For example, the part where Letty first summoned by Harry ..I mean the summoner; was enough to make me smile at least. Also the way they created the back story for Dearia was kind of hilarious too. I thought being a demon king was a big thing in Letty's worlds but in this episode, we realize that the Demon Lord himself have zero interest to become one. To make it funnier, it was like a title that he won through lottery and he got it by a very random chance; which make a title of Demon Lord was not frightening at all lol. Although deviated from the usual formula, I can say that it was better than earlier episode. So I have a big hope they can made the plot even funnier for next episode
