2. Recap of Episode 7 of Arifureta Season 3
In Arifureta Season 3, Episode 7, Hajime stood before the coffins where his teammates slept, each lost in a dream world. He freed Yue first, and they shared a tender moment, enjoying a brief respite. Not long after, Shea stirred awake on her own, followed by Tio and Shizuku.
It was then revealed that each of them had been living out a dream where Hajime was their lover—a revelation that brought a mix of awkwardness and humor. Deciding to let the Hero’s Party rest a little longer, Hajime’s group took a breather.

When they returned, the Hero’s Party still hadn’t woken up. Hajime, not one to waste time, had Shizuku use her magic to pull them out of their dreams. With everyone now back to reality, they resumed their journey into the labyrinth.
Their path led them into a forest, where the skies darkened, and a strange rain began to fall. It wasn’t water but a slime-like substance. Despite Yue’s best efforts to shield everyone, the slime coated them all.
Tio, delighting in the chaos, revealed that the slime was a potent aphrodisiac. Chaos erupted as everyone—except Hajime and Tio—succumbed to its effects. Hajime quickly doused them with a potion, snapping them out of it just in time to avoid further embarrassment.

As they pressed on, Shea heard a strange noise and followed it, only to freeze in terror. Hajime investigated and discovered the source: a massive swarm of flying cockroaches. As the swarm ambushed the group, Yue created a shield to protect them. The swarm eventually passed, but their relief was short-lived—a towering, monstrous cockroach emerged, blocking their path.
As Hajime prepared to confront the beast, a blinding light enveloped them, leaving the group stunned. The episode closed with a frustrated exchange between Hajime and Yue, each playfully claiming they hated the other, setting the stage for the trials still to come. The labyrinth wasn’t letting up, and neither was the chaos.
