There's so much going on in this episode, lots of jokes. I liked the cafe scene with Yanami.
I haven't made a bridge to a VM before today, or made a bridge with Network Manager. That being said, I was able to persuade Network Manger to get a bridge working, and there are a few things I can note:
-
When you setup the bridge, the host network interface should become a slave to the bridge. This means that the physical network interface should not have an IP Address, and your bridge should now be where you configure the host's IP address.
- After you start the VM, you should be able to run
ip link | grep 'master br0'
on the host, and it should display 2 interfaces which are slaves to br0. One for the physical ethernet interface, one for the VM (vnet). And it should only list your ethernet interface when the VM is off.
- After you start the VM, you should be able to run
-
The RedHat tutorial does not show the bridge and the host having different IP addresses, the RedHat tutorial shows the bridge and the guest having different IP addresses. Actually, no, the RedHat tutorial shows the libvirt NAT bridge, not even the bridge that the tutorial describes creating... If you set the IP address of virbr0, I don't know what happens.
-
If your VM's network adapter is connected to the host's bridge, then you should be able to log into your VM and set a static IP address.
I had a lot of problems getting Network Manager to actually use my ethernet interface as a slave for the bridge. Here's what worked for me, though:
nmcli con show
nmcli con down 'Wired Connection 1'
nmcli con modify 'Wired Connection 1' connection.autoconnect no
nmcli con add type bridge con-name br0 ifname br0
nmcli connection add type bridge-slave ifname enp7s0 master br0
nmcli con modify br0 connection.autoconnect yes
nmcli con modify bridge-slave-enp7s0 connection.autoconnect yes
nmcli con modify br0 ipv4.method manual ipv4.addresses 172.16.0.231/24 bridge.stp no
sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager.service
nmcli con show
ip addr
- Instead of enp7s0, you'd use enp1s0 I guess.
- Above, I manually set my bridge IP address to a static address because my ethernet interface is wired directly to another computer, so no DHCP for me. If you have DHCP on your ethernet network, you probably don't need to set "ipv4.method" or "ipv4.addresses".
- I set "bridge.stp" to "no" because my network doesn't have any redundant paths, and the stp process seems to take like 25 seconds before I can use the bridge network.
After that, I can go into "Virtual Machine Manger", set my VM's NIC's Network Source to "Bridge device...", Device name to"br0", boot my VM, login to my VM, configure my VM's ip address. And then I can connect to the VM's IP address from the physical ethernet network.
Ah, friends. Of course. Friends.
looks at the genres on MyAnimeList
Genres: Fantasy, Slice of Life
Little did I expect that this anime is about 2 asexual people becoming friends.
It was great to see he finally getting his moment, to see him pulling that move from the Tokyo Blade manga out of nowhere and making the crowd go wild.
It's always nice to see the underdog succeed with hard work and dedication. And in this case, it's an underdog story for a side-character that began back in the previous season, so it has more impact compared to if Melt was introduced for this arc.
If this was real, Melt's sword kick & flip performance would be absolutely insane to watch, compared to his previous acting. I guess the show shows this with the Sweet Today's author's initial dumbfounded reaction.
I really like the mix and comedy and drama that this anime creates. Somehow the comedy punchlines to the drama scenes make the world feel more grounded.
The way Wolf resolved the situation with Emilia and Tobias, by inviting Dahlia out, felt strange and unnatural to me. Tit-for-tat, I suppose. It did show how Wolf was immediately able to see the twisted game that Emilia was playing and was also immediately able to resolve it, while still getting implicit consent from Dahlia in the process.
And then the follow-up scene where they both geek out about magic tools, establishing that their personalities match quite well.
Oof, the sentimental part at the end hit me. 🥲 Watching again, I think the animators did an excellent job of displaying the emotions here, despite feeling like the animation has a tight budget.
Also, is that meat-wrapped fruit that I spot? I know this is a fantasy world, but even fantasy has its limits... (Allegedly Italians eat melon wrapped with prosciutto, but I refuse to believe this.)
Note that some shows have had their episodes delayed/postponed due to the Olympic broadcasts happening. So, there might be more green on the chart this week than normal due to that.
Notably Wistoria’s Wand and Sword and My Hero Academia Season 7 were delayed. Additionally, Our Last Crusade or the Rise of a New World Season 2 just dropped from 5th to 24th. Altogether leaving 3 spots open in the top 10 this week.
The lightspeed hero has an interesting ability. I wonder how it'll come into play in Tempest. Masayuki doesn't hold any ill-will towards Rimuru, but maybe the "The Chosen One" ability has other plans. It seems like Shion's ability to break rules would be a good match, not that I really understand Shion's ability.
a) Mystery demonkin guy is moved by Noor’s attempt to “save” him from the dragon, and saves him
Perhaps the poison reserve in the dragon has been depleted. This would give a chance for Lynne and Ines to strike down the dragon. Afterwords the demonkin would recover Noor from the poison. This would give an excuse for Ines to not immediately arrest the demonkin. The demonkin is likely to have a way to resist the dragon's poison for personal use. This feels like the traditional fantasy anime answer to this setup.
From Ines' attitude, I don't think Ines or Lynne can save Noor from the poison. So alternatively, maybe Noor uses something like low-recover to recover from the poison. Though I think we've only seen Noor use low-heal, not low-recover.
But what is this show if Noor doesn't parry the poison out of his body? And then downplay his abilities? My vote is C!
Next episode title: I Parry Death.
Noor: "What was with that hooded skeleton with the scythe? Where did he come from and why did he try to come at me? That was pretty rude of him if you ask me, but I guess that's just how some skeletons are."
Oh! I liked this episode quite a bit, which is surprising because I thought the first 3 episodes were bland.
Things just came together in a way that felt satisfying. We have a pretty nicely animated conflict, Sensei being a novelist finally fits into the story, we get to learn about the villain's motivations, and we get the title drop.
