2. Zenshu Episode 2 Recap
Episode 2 of Zenshu started out with Natsuko’s awakening three days after her fight against the voids. She woke up in Luke’s place, where Luke almost immediately greeted her with a ton of questions about her identity, her powers, and a lot more. On hearing her stomach rumble, he made her some food, which she munched on with a satisfied face. Memmeln, Unio, and QJ walked in after this and informed Luke that the village leader asked to see them and wanted Natsuko to be taken along with them.
At the leader, Baobab’s place, Natsuko was asked to join the Nine Heroes, as she was deemed to be worthy of the title. Luke was against the notion and strongly vocalized it, telling Natsuko that women shouldn’t be heroes for several reasons that seemed too personal. Natsuko disagreed with his reasons but also let them know that she wouldn’t be joining the Nine Heroes, as it seemed to be too much of a pain. She then revealed that it would be exceptionally annoying since a lot of flying voids would be attacking them soon, which had everyone shocked.
Luke tried to get every bit of information about the upcoming attack from Natsuko, who had also gotten to terms with the fact that she couldn’t leave the new world so easily. So she agreed to join The Nine Heroes and also gave them the information they needed about the flying voids with the help of some illustrations. Three days after this, the flying voids attacked just as Natsuko had predicted, and the village’s existing forces weren’t able to fend off the imminent threat.
It would seem Natsuko’s powers start working when there’s a threat around Luke because when Luke seemed to be losing, her power and inspiration kicked in, and she drew to her heart’s content. From her files, numerous missiles were launched against the voids, and in just a matter of seconds, all the voids that the entire village was struggling to fight were eradicated with no trace. Right after this massive feat, Natsuko collapsed again as she did in the previous episode.
3. What To Expect In Episode 3 of Zenshu
Since Episode 2 of Zenshu ended with Natsuko’s amazing victory, we will likely see Natsuko being welcomed into The Nine Heroes in the next episode. With this, she’ll get the perks of unlimited food and drinks as she had wanted. There aren’t any hints about her going back to her original world, so there isn’t much that can be predicted about that.
It is worth noting that Natsuko’s presence in this world is surely causing drastic changes in the world. Unio was destined to die at the beginning of the story, and the invasion of the flying voids would cause all livestock to perish causing famines. While this was thwarted, the butterfly effect caused by her actions shouldn’t be ignored. Natsuko may be able to predict the future in the present, but from a logical perspective, she wouldn’t be able to keep doing this for too long as her existence has influenced the story too much.
