The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy episode 8 is coming out next week, and the series' lore is expanding now that the most recent episode introduced the concept of demi-humans. This episode highlighted how demi-humans have existed for quite some time since Leonis was aware of them and also how humanity has been treating them as second-class citizens, which is a very interesting plot twist.
In that regard, here is hoping that The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy episode 8 is going to show a lot more focus on the element of the Oni and the demi-humans. It has added another layer to the series' worldbuilding and also showed that there is more to the story beyond the clear elements of fanservice that most Passione anime series have been known for.

The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy episode 7 recap
The bulk of the latest episode was focused on the introduction of demi-humans and their connections with humanity. While it wasn't made very clear, it seems that Leonis was already familiar with the existence of the demi-humans since he wasn't shocked when he met them.
On the other hand, this episode also meant the introduction of Elza, a character who has already generated a lot of positive reactions online. There was also a nice gesture by Leonis: giving Riselia a new keychain, which also represents how much their friendship has evolved thus far this season.
What to expect from episode 8
The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy episode 8, at least based on the preview images, seems to be focusing on the friendship between Riselia and Leonis, although that is up for interpretation. Passione have shown they can drift away from the source material, so here is hoping that the alterations are positive for the series.
