Arifureta season 3 episode 16, What Makes a Hero, commenced with the fight between Amanogawa and his alter ego. Surprisingly, the hero faced difficulty fighting against his reflection solely due to the mention of Hajime. Due to Amanogawa's jealousy of the male protagonist, he couldn't overpower his alter ego.

Soon, Hajime and Yaegashi also arrived there, and witnessing his crush in the hands of the male protagonist, Amanogawa lost it and tried attacking Hajime. As expected Hajime was surprised by the hero's actions, as was Yaegashi who woke up a few minutes afterwards. Despite Yaegashi's advice to stop acting childish, Amanogawa was adamant that Hajime placed her under a love spell.

Yaegashi then tried fighting Amanogawa's alter ego as Hajime tried knocking some sense into the hero. Unfortunately, Amanogawa branded the same allegations as Yaegashi on Yue and the other girls, which made Hajime's temper boil. So, Hajime was now ready to kill Amanogawa but was stopped by Kouki and Suzu who just arrived alongside the remaining members.

Unfortunately, Amanogawa had lost against his alter ego and there was no chance of him winning. So, Hajime knocked him out. Before progressing to the next stage, Yaegashi confessed her feelings before Hajime's group and claimed to fight for her love. Hajime and the party then reached the end of the Final Labyrinth, the hideout of the Vandre Schnee.

Arifureta season 3 episode 16 is titled The Key To The World. As hinted by the episode's title and the previous episode's climax, the next episode might see Hajime and his party conquer the Final Labyrinth.

This might mean that Hajime and his party might get their hands on the key to the human world. Moreover, as the next season might be the final season, Arifureta season 3 episode 16 might act as a good prequel to the showdown against the final antagonists.
