great episode!

oh and a little something random about our favorite Hero's name:

That's from the actual website a while back. Not sure if they have officially changed is since then but thought I would throw it out there. ;)

Spoiler:
I got worried there for a bit when a demon showed up. Then it turned out he was totally awesome, so it's okay.

I think I already mentioned this, but CR's just using the spelling from the English subs on the Japanese blu-ray release.

The discrepancy is between who initially romanized it and who is romanizing it now. Given that the Japanese don't know how to romanize their own language, I wouldn't be surprised if neither was right. I'm about 99% certain it's not "Sink", though. Shinku, in reference to the color red (crimson, a color most definitely associated with him), or Cinque, as an Italian name (the series having many Italian words, including "biscotti", which originates in Italy and is the name of the kingdom he was summoned to as a hero), would make sense. Sink, as an object found in bathrooms and kitchens, doesn't really work as a name.

I like Cinque, myself. o wo I mean, I don't think he's ethnically Japanese (not totally), so having a non-Japanese name wouldn't be bad at all (see also: Rebecca).

Cinque makes the most sense. He's already said he was half-Japanese I'm pretty sure.

Oh, and I just noticed...

Spoiler:
At the very least, Squirrel-Girl and Cinque were named as "descendants" of the Hero-King. Which means she had to have had a child at some point.

The Hero-King is clearly romantically attached to the Demon Lord (mind you, she's the dominant, but still).

Which makes it entirely possible that said Demon Lord is a distant ancestor of those two. Nevermind that they're apparently related to each other now, Cinque may have the blood of a Demon Lord in him! I wonder if that will be relevant later...? XD Having those sorts of ancestors would explain a lot about his overall ability...

Yeah, that's true
Spoiler:
Would be interesting if Cinque and Courvette were related.

Half-Japanese, half-British, IIRC.

Lulzy episode. = w= b Ones like this occasionally aren't bad at all, though they shouldn't do 'em *too* often.
