No Game No Life - ep10

Now that Sora's game with Kurami has concluded they move on to the filler episode where we get to learn more about Fil and Kurami. What is interesting with Fil and Kurami joining the group is we learn about the Elf's social structure. That their society use slave labor and this gets to Fil and Kurami's relationship. It seems that Kurami's family has served the Nilvalen clan for generation, and this is how she got to know Fil who was the heiress of the clan at the time and now is it leader. However Fil loves Kurami and hates how her friend is demeaned by the current social structure. This pains her with how they can only act as they wish in private, that she must treat her dear friend as a slave in public. This means that she is fine with anything that Sora is planning as long as nothing he does harms Kurami.

With this out in the open it reveals a bit of the bad blood between Fil and Jibril. It seems when the war was still going on the elves caused Jibril to fall out of the sky and bump her head because of an anti-flying seal that was place of one of their cities. Then in retaliation for this indignity Jibril wipe the city off the map, and it seems that Fil still bears a grudge against Jibril for this insistence. Then as penance Jibril has to lick Fil feet while apologizing. Now that everyone is good to go the fun and games continue with Sora starting the obligatory bathing scene. That it is just more fun and games as things build up to the next event the actual start of inanity's game against the Warbeast.

It seems that through the starting of these game we get to see some of the motive behind Sora's action. First is why he need Kurami and Fil on his side is because he need a way to prevent the Warbeast from overtly using magic. Then there is the spurning of his citizens he wants them to be suspicious of him and the possibility that he might throw the game because he is work for the Warbeasts. Now with thousands of eyes watching them this will make cheat far more difficult for them but as Sora has stated before as long as it is not impossible to win then Kuuhaku will not lose. Now as the game starts Sora and Shiro fall apart with finding themselves in a world remarkably similar to Tokyo. It will be interesting to see what the rules of this game are and how Kuuhaku will pull themselves together.
