They won't ever be combat-able if they don't see combat. I guess they finally need to do something do justify their comfortable lifestyle.

Maybe she's secretly a tactician?
Oh, and that floating squid thing that was with Atui was only around for one episode.. it left as quickly as it came. I have no idea what that was even about.

I suppose I don't regularly approve of MC dudes acting in a cowardly manner, but somehow watching Haku in this episode was so funny I couldn't get displeased. It's a strange contrast between the first series where everybody expected things from Hakuoro and he delivered even more, and this second series where for some unfathomable reason people keep relying on this dude who only wants to laze around doing as little as possible. Avoiding danger and trouble is the highest of his priorities, naturally. But then again, he still keeps digging the shit after all this time, so perhaps everybody around him has realised a long time ago that he can be made to do anything, like a decent tool, even if he tries to protest at first. Such a sad fate, really. This way he mostly gets the shit and no reward, unlike someone who has ambition and raises himself to top positions with his work.
The twin priestesses are really handy. Haku was lucky to get them. No wonder the court was so outraged.
Twins FTW.
So, did Haku just acquire a legendary swordsman?
Peace.
I must have looked in the wrong place. I thought he acquired a loli.Originally Posted by shinta|hikari
Entertainment-wise Atui was the bomb, but Kuon was a pretty big surprise. Her martial arts prowess can be expected given her upbringing, but it's still the first time she's done anything beyond tail-strangling.

She hasn't had to. Kuon is crazy strong (including her tail), even by animal people standards, but we also know she isn't Karura's biological daughter.
Maybe she can turn into a god-monster like her father.
Peace.
Episode 17 - HS

The emperor is quite a detestable man. Of course it also makes sense considering he's some kind of an ancient technocrat, but still there's something exceedingly wrong about a dude who can't appreciate all the wonderful animal ears girls around him and only considers them transient placeholders until he manages to resurrect the other scumbags from the time much better long gone. All of this explains more than sufficiently why he doesn't give a shit about these folks dying by the thousands just to set an example. Or why he so easily gave the too cute to be real twin sisters as a gift to Haku. They are mere propery for him, albeit I reckon he finds them interesting as a game.
I get that he thinks of Anju and Honoka as pale reflections of his wife and daughter, but I really wonder how this next bit will play out. The Emperor doesn't seem to realize that Haku doesn't give a shit about whether or not they have animal ears, even with his returning memories. The people are the people to him.
What I'm not sure about is how "the family" will take the imminent hostilities toward Tuskuru. The Emperor wants Hakuoro's hibernating body to end the curse against humanity. Kuon will obviously side with Tuskuru, Nosuri (and Ougi) will agree with Kuon most likely due to her strong sense of JUSTICE, but Atui, Rurutie, and Nekone have allegiance to Yamato. Haku is almost certainly going to vie for peace. I'd hate to see the three Yamato girls forced to choose between family and friends.
I don't know. Nosuri and Ougi (the 'bandit' sister and brother?) are pretty pro-Emperor for now. At least initially they're going to comply with the Emperor's wishes to invade.
The bit about "they're not human" is actually weird. I personally think it's due to circumstance than genetics. The emperor had been around so long and been such a leader that he was a god towards them. It's more a case of "I became so good that I have no friends". No one seems Haku as some walking god (lol). He's been able to form relationships because of mutual reliance.
The Emperor didn't need to be a god, but he played the role for so long that his only option is to revive others.
I'm going to assume that the True Human project was a success and that the Emperor applied it to himself (while somehow leaving Haku trapped somewhere). That's the only way 200 year lifespans make sense. I previously assumed Haku was the only one who got the enhancement, which resulted in his sleeping state till now.

Few of the core people seem like the type to joyously go and fight a pure war of invasion. Some of the powerhouses for sure, but hard to see anyone from Haku's personal harem. Of course they might do it if absolutely commanded, but not with giving it their all. Though after this episode I wouldn't anymore consider it below the emperor the fabricate a reason for it, to make it look all justified.
You sure misspelled, "digging shit out of ditches and being bullied into doing other crappy jobs no one else wanted, and inadvertently flirting with girls (and a few guys too),"
"mutual reliance" and what you meant to spell aren't even on the same row.
The twin girls are pretty much the only people who view Haku as something extra special, probably because they know he is, in that world, even if they can't know more than a little of the truth, I reckon.
Nah, the girls get him out of shit when he's actually deep in it. When he's not that deep, they leave him in there. That's about right. Haku doesn't actually do much otherwise, mind you.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
When, exactly? Aside from the twins. From what I've seen, the girls only serve their own purposes, sometimes dragging Haku in. It doesn't anymore matter if they then help him because it was their matter to begin with. Or a matter shared by Haku and someone else, so it's normal to help him.
But then again, why not. He's paying his own bills with work, even if that work is far below him considering he could fix that mill in a jiffy, for example, when the rest of the village apparently would have waited for craftsmen from the city or something. So, he could have done more decent work if he had had an ounce of ambition.
Wasn't he a researcher too? Maybe he could've created a subspecies of his own if he wanted. But he's lazy.
Peace.
I thought so first too, but when he kept saying "they are so arrogant", "they are up to some really dicey stuff" during the flashback I started thinking he is a hacker/computer-nerd (whatever) that hacked into some file called "iceman project" and his "laziness" and extremely poor condition might actually come from him sitting infront of the PC all day long. Just look at how he trashed all that food there without taking it out, it's... it's like he's ME!
Him actually volunteering to be a test subject ("my life isn't worth much") instead of helping his brother do some real research, might hint at that too.
Btw, why is he checking out his brother's wife like that, not that I mind, because she's *super* hot, but it's weird.

It's not weird. It's normal.
Peace.
Like whenever he was actually physically in trouble, though much of that was early on.
At first I thought Honoka was sister-by-blood. Oh well.

You like incest?
Peace.
