The Shy Hero and the Assassin Princesses episode 1: A brief recap

Episode 1 was mostly focused on laying a foundation for the upcoming series to be based on. The episode starts with the introduction of the protagonist, Toto, and the three assassin princesses— Ciel, Anemone, and Gore— who were tasked to kill Toto.

The girls formed a party with Toto at the guild, but were secretly planning the assassination. Throughout the episode, each of them tried to attack and assassinate Toto in their own ways using their powers and abilities, but all failed in the end. On the contrary, Toto saved all of them when their plan failed and put their lives in danger.

By the end of the episode, the girls who were fighting among themselves about who would be the one to kill Toto and claim the reward started bonding over the idea of killing him, while Toto lay on the floor unconscious.

The upcoming The Shy Hero and the Assassin Princesses episode 2 will likely feature Toto and the girls going on an adventure once again, as Toto moves forward with his goal of defeating the Demon Lord, Ciel’s father. Nevertheless, the girls will surely try to assassinate him again, but will likely fail.
