A brief recap of Konosuba season 3 episode 7

The episode began with Kazuma being rewarded for his contribution as an adventurer. Just when fans thought he’d show his humility, he decided to flaunt his money and arrogantly bought everyone a round of their favorite alcoholic beverage. Kazuma and Aqua seemed to enjoy a lavish lifestyle.

However, their happiness turned into horror when they entered the house as they saw their friends partake in what looked like a masochistic activity catered to Darkness.

Megumin cleared up the misunderstanding by commenting that Darkness was training for an endurance competition. Darkness also mentioned that her father was not doing well and that she wanted to visit him.

Soon, she accepted a bounty that involved killing a Hydra, something that was incredibly dangerous. At first, Kazuma objected, but Darkenss’s ability to persuade was better than his self-control.

The group traveled to the spot where the Hydra resided, and Aqua purified the water body in the hopes of drawing the Hydra out. The only issue was that it worked too well, and Aqua was caught by the Hydra. The episode ended on a cliffhanger, with Kazuma screaming in fear.

What to expect in Konosuba season 3 episode 8?

Konosuba season 3 episode 8 is titled An Eternal Rest For The Master of This Lake. The preview of this episode was narrated by Verdia, who appeared in the previous episode, calling Wiz from the afterlife. According to the preview trailer, the fight with the Hydra could only last a few minutes because of Megumin's Explosion.

Moreover, the preview trailer also saw the return of Yunyun, so fans can expect the return of the Crimson Demon in Konosuba season 3 episode 8. The preview trailer also saw Aqua getting scolded by some guild adventurers. This could be because she purified the lake where the Hydra was, and as revealed by Darkness, the monsters don't live in pure water. So, this could have scared all the monsters from the lake, thus robbing some adventurers of their quests.
