The Daily Life of a Middle-aged Online Shopper in Another World episode 2 recap
The Daily Life of a Middle-aged Online Shopper in Another World episode 2 began with Kenichi setting up shop once again. Margaret first came by to buy 100 clothespins, also asking about the jewelry he was selling.
At the end of the day, the beastfolk and Myaley came by after, asking to buy the spices they smelled on him for a culturally significant meal. While Kenichi refused to sell them spices to avoid conflict with syndicates, he cooked a meal for all of them to eat.
The next day, Kenichi set up shop once more, with Margaret and her boss Primula both coming by to buy both 100 clothespins and the necklace Margaret looked at the day before. They then invited him to meet with Primula’s father Mallow, who ran a trading company named after him.
After some negotiating, the two agreed on a contract, which allowed Kenichi to make enough money immediately and long-term to focus on pursuing his quiet life in this new world.
Kenichi likewise began by buying some manual labor power tools to clear an area for a home and farmland within the woods where he first appeared in this world. However, he eventually got sick of manual labor and decided to buy a backhoe to help the process. Focus then briefly shifted to Anemone, who was seemingly sold off to someone who was attacked by bandits after. The episode ended with Kenichi realizing he was now drastically low on funds after his purchases.
What to expect from The Daily Life of a Middle-aged Online Shopper in Another World episode 3 (speculative)
The Daily Life of a Middle-aged Online Shopper in Another World episode 3 should open up with a focus on Kenichi as he works to reclaim the wealth he recently spent. This should involve Mallow and Primula primarily considering his arrangement with the pair is currently his most profitable endeavor.
Episode 3 should also see Kenichi continue to make both new business connections and new friends, many of whom will likely fill both roles. One character who is likely to be the latter only is Anemone, whose continued focus in the second episode is clearly bringing her closer to Kenichi.
