Welcome to Japan, Ms. Elf! episode 3 recap
Welcome to Japan, Ms. Elf! episode 3 began with Kazuhiro and Marie already back in Japan. The former returned home from work to find the latter hard at work studying Japanese. They had dinner while discussing magic stones of Marie’s world, with Kazuhiro making his intent to go on an adventure to locate one clear. They then fell asleep in bed together that night and returned to Marie’s world like always, where they awoke in the woods.
The pair then made their way to the Ujah Peak ruins via a long–distance teleportation skill of Kazuhiro’s. When they arrived, the area was clearly inspired by Ancient Egypt, complete with a pyramid in the center that served as the ruins. As they arrived, focus shifted to a young beastfolk boy who was seemingly being abused. However, he also had a stone which glowed blue, presumably being one of the magic stones Kazuhiro and Marie were looking for.
As they made their way deeper into the ruins, they came upon an oasis, where they took a brief rest from the heat of the desert. However, they were then attacked by some monsters, which Kazuhiro took care of. Some bandits then arrived, as well as the beastfolk child, who they ordered to do something to Kazuhiro and Marie. The episode ended with the pair dying to a monster summoned by the boy, waking up in Japan for the weekend ahead.
What to expect from Welcome to Japan, Ms. Elf! episode 4 (speculative)
Welcome to Japan, Ms. Elf! episode 4 should open up with a continued focus on Marie and Kazuhiro exploring Japan. Likewise, with Kazuhiro off work due to it being the weekend, the episode may fully dedicate itself to the pair’s day(s) in Japan before returning to Marie’s world in the next installment.
Episode 4 should also introduce some sort of situation to highlight both how Marie is perceived in Japan, and how well she’s adjusting to the culture in terms of its societal expectations. This likewise could serve as a means of introducing romantic conflict into the series, which has been noticeably absent thus far.
