What a chiffhanger ending.... At least the next season should be epic since everything's been set up.

In my native tongue we have an idiom that roughly translated to "Thief thinks every man steals" which roughly explains Lili's character.
She was forced into being an awful person and then she thought everyone else without exception were also awful people and to her this somehow justified her tricking them before they could potentially trick her.
But that doesn't actually justify her actions to me, you're never justified in being awful to strangers just because people were awful to you.
That's just being an awful person.

If you like Lili that's fine, but i still feel the story did an absolutely awful job at redeeming her, it was just one sob scene and then everything is supposedly redeemed and forgiven.
I just don't buy that. It felt far too sudden and its suddenness made her backstabbing Bell all the more idiotic imo.

I think i would've liked her as a character if the story had done a good or atleast a better job at redeeming her, although who knows, might just be the anime losing some things in the transition of LN->Anime.

Also honestly i laughed pretty hard when she was buttmad at that guy for dragging a ton of monsters their way and almost getting their party killed, because that was essentially what she herself just recently had done.

MAMAGAHAMA


alright Yui what you doing


in the end Hachiman prevented the supposedly splitting that would happen because of love and now Hachiman is going to the Harem End

overall this episode is nice with all the entertaining exchange banter between characters but in the end NOTHING HAPPENED i mean shit just got postponed which we may never see again cause it'll probably not get any budget and i'd wait for the english translation of the next volumes of the Ln

Most people would never trust her after what she did, which is why i feel her just crying about how sorry she is simply isn't a good way to redeem her character.
What exactly is meant to convince me as a viewer that she's actually serious this time and isn't just once again trying to trick Bell? Because i'm not seeing it. It's essentially the story just saying, well now she's redeemed and she can put all her trauma and her completely lack of trust in anyone behind her and move on because she cried.
I mean i know she wont because of what kind of story it is. But that doesn't to me make it a good transition from her being misguided to her being a trustworthy and loyal person. Hell even having it be a gradual transition would've been something i'd like, with her still having trouble trusting Bell in the following episodes and then eventually having her trust him fully would make me actually believe that she was a changed character.
It was far too sudden for my taste, it just went from one extreme to the other. And that's what causes me to dislike her.

Also i think we might have very different definitions of the word evil, because Lili was far from what i'd call evil. She was just what i'd probably call misguided.

Hmm, I would say no. In Danmachi, leveling up over time is a long endeavor. For most charas, it takes about a year to go from 1 to 2, while it took Bell a month, thanks to Realis Phrase.
That said, the final episode fight against Goliath, best girl Ryuu and Andromeda were level 4. Mikoto who managed to do something useful is also level 2 like Bell but there's still a disparity in their combat abilities. Aizu is 6 and there are several 6s in Loki Familia. + Show Spoiler [Lone level 7 chara] +
