Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time episode 3 recap

Expand Tweet

Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time episode 3 began with Papek and Takumi meeting with Mulan, owner of the Mulan Trading Company. After having his concerns quelled by Mulan, Takumi explained what he needs in a slave to her, who suggested he get two slaves— one for housekeeping, and one for fighting.

She likewise first introduced him to Maria, who was confident she could handle the upkeep of his home by herself.

After agreeing to Maria, she suggested Sofia as the other slave, which Mulan shut down by telling her to go pack her things. However, Takumi’s intuition skill told him pursuing Sofia was the right choice, leading him to press the issue.

This prompted Mulan to introduce him to Sofia, who was the elven girl he met at the previous installment's end. Despite having some medical issues that limited her combat prowess, Takumi wanted to take her in and vowed to heal her.

Focus then shifted to the trio settling in at home together, followed by Takumi picking up materials from Papek the next day. On the way home, he went by a church and prayed to Lady Nolyn, who summoned him to explain why she dislikes Sidonia and warned him that his journey would get harder from here on out.

The episode ended with the three heroes Sidonia summoned being formally introduced, as Takumi successfully healed Sofia’s wounds and dispelled her curse.

What to expect from Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time episode 4 (speculative)

Expand Tweet

Possibly the Greatest Alchemist of All Time episode 4 should begin with a continued focus on Maria, Sofia, and Takumi, as they continue to live with each other. More specifically, the episode should highlight how Sofia’s change of heart towards Takumi has affected the trio’s living situation. It’s even possible that Sofia may now have romantic feelings for Takumi.

Episode 4 should also see Lady Nolyn reappear, even if only for a brief moment, given the information she shared at the end of the last episode. Also likely to get a brief focus is the Holy Empire of Sidonia, likely through yet another flash-forward to the time when the summoning ritual was actually used.
