Lance n’ Macaques Episode 2: Are you Prepared? — Beeble Reviews



please don't remember her.

MC’s personal battlemaid, lady knight-in-training, and manimal horse have come to crash at Nagi’s mansion! To help make things simpler from here on, the maids shall be known as Maria 1 and Maria 2, in order, and MC has upgraded to Hayate status. Hayate just doesn’t wanna live on Knight Island, and he’s scared Maria 2 will take him back home because she’s strict and mean!


It’s a bad excuse. Nobody could love that goopy face.

HERO WORSHIP: THE ANIMATED SERIES

And thus, they all begin living off of li’l Nagi’s money for free. The end.


I guess that having to stomach her merits some sort of pay, I suppose.

Now that we’ve gotten to meet Maria 2, Hero Worshipper and Horse, Nagi and Hayate go out to hit the town and ask the tough questions.



“Aww shit...I only know about island school. Do I get her a boat...??”

Also, this horse talks like Kirby. Fuck this horse.

MEANWHILE IN THE CITY THERE’S BIG CITY BUSINESS

But juuuust enough to establish that there’s big city business at all.

MEANWHILE MORE, this Maria 1 faces a personal crisis.




“This is SO not fair! Yes, we were allowing the child to be abused, but that doesn’t LEGALLY allow her to fire us all!”

Thankfully for Maria 1, Maria 3 is here to save the day for her paycheck because someone telling her how shitty she is at caring for children made her cry about it.

What a great child-abusing big sister!

Then Hayate does the first real morally positive decision of the episode: He’s going to kindly and softly go to Nagi’s dad and tell him he’s no good, gosh darn it!


Oh well then I'll just take my knight powers and go home. Maybe if I send him an email he might get back to me...

On the other hand he runs into this big business guy in charge of security, Security Guy, an old friend of his dad’s.

There’s...just some wide age ranges this art style is not meant to draw.

From him, Hayate learns that Nagi is scheduled to be sent overseas...sometime, I dunno. But soon! And she’ll be all alone again! But this is because gangsters are trying to get her, so this is actually better than her current situation anyway. But her dad still sucks so he’s gonna go talk to him. IF HE CAN GET PAST SECURITY GUY FIRST!!!

Aww yeah! Kill ‘im! Kill this family friend with your lance!

oh god

no he’s still funny

No! Fuck you, don’t stab him with your 10 ft. spear across this wide-open viridian plane! You can just run to the dad’s room!

“You are some kid with a lot of violence and anger issues, dang son.”

GOOD! THIS KID SHOULDN’T BE REINFORCED BY CHILDREN’S GLEE MAYBE IF HE FIGHTS WITHOUT A LANCE HE’LL HAVE LESS OF A CHANCE OF GORING GUYS

So, some knights get paid to do bad work and they have to do it out of knightly loyalty, that’s really bad and sad. Okay. Back at the ranch...


WOW SHE REALLY BEAT HER WITH THOSE BULLETS FROM HER GUN HUH

This show still doesn’t have any likable AND non-grating characters (MC’s close but his hypocrisy and spinelessness doesn’t sit well, the smart people are assholes and the moe people are too dumb) plus come on now they just literally stole her house, and there was a bath scene I skipped on purpose because that’s distasteful bro. I guess I’ll give it another week because of the fuckin’ “the show doesn’t start until episode 3” rule of anime but really, who could say yes to these vacuous faces?

The longer I stare, the further apart their eyes become.
