New Saga episode 4 recap

New Saga episode 4, titled The Perfect Start to a Heroic Tale, saw Kyle and his party decide to protect Princess Milena from the Hydra. So, just as Sildonia spotted Milena's drivers attacking her guards, she informed the others. After Kyle and others took out the drivers, their focus switched to the hellhounds and Hydra.

Theron, Liese, and Urza defeated the hellhounds, while Kyle defeated the eight-headed Hydra. Soon after, Kyle reunited with the others at the carriage. After Milena woke up from her slumber, she revealed that the one after her was not Prince Carenas but Zentos. Thus, Milena asked Kyle's party to join her, Arka, and Minos to get away from the area.

What to expect from New Saga episode 5?

New Saga episode 5, titled Reunion at Dawn, will most likely see Kyle face off against Zentos. In the last two episodes, while subtle, the anime hinted that Kyle knew Zentos from his previous timeline. However, in this timeline, the leader of the second battalion was seemingly evil, as he wished to kill Princess Milena.

Therefore, the "reunion" mentioned in the episode title could be referring to Kyle's reunion with Zentos. With that, fans can expect a battle between them. That said, the anime has yet to explore why Zentos wanted to kill Milena in this timeline.
