We’ve come to the end of The World’s Finest Assassin, with his life threatened by the man who surely has to be the hero due to the way he is presented.
Tasked with preventing an international incident, while protecting Dia, Lugh seemingly will follow in his father’s footsteps for love.
Though Lugh has proclaimed his love for Dia to his father, he gets the chance to show rather than tell as they go on a date in this episode.
As Lugh is prepping for his first assassination, without his father’s guidance, he is also tasked with tapping into his emotions and thinking about his future family.
With his two-year term coming to a close, Lugh is presented a notable ultimatum and he announces one of his plans for the future.
As Lugh, I mean Illig, settles into his life as a merchant and naturally excels, he finds himself dealing with something he didn’t quite plan for.
Rather than focus on Lugh’s early days as a member of the Balor family, we focus on the newest member of his crew and their traumatic origins.
Lugh faces two notable tests required for him to become an assassin, and we get to meet the members of the Tuatha Dé family.
We focus on Lugh’s life from ten to his mid-teens as he continues to prep to kill the Hero and recruits someone to help him do the job.
The show with an overly long title continues to bolster wonderful relationship developments and intrigue as we come to understand how magic works.
Episode 2 focuses on world-building and fleshes out the family the now named Lugh is born into.
You may think this is yet another reborn into a fantasy world anime, and you’d be right. However, this one has a far more interesting protagonist than most.
