>!After reading the Sentouin Hakenshimasu Mini-Stories, which resolved some plot holes I had noticed, including Princess Tilis's brother and the Demon Lord's 4th General, both of whom disappeared off-screen and were recruited by Kisaragi, it's revealed that they could return home. However, they don't because their life on Earth is far too luxurious in comparison. Why does the Chosen One, the Hero, work for an evil organization? Well, from his perspective, superheroes aren't very different from villains, so it's irrelevant to him that Kisaragi defines itself as an evil organization. Besides, he fell in love with Astaroth. The point is that they both planned to take a griffin with them before leaving, but they learned the hard way that the griffin didn't generate water; rather, the planet is rich in water, and the griffin is merely the final node in the water network. This is funny because while they want to stay, Kisaragi's forces want to invade their planet because Earth doesn't have much time left!<

I don't want to confuse this with segmented or capsule shows like Looney Tunes, The Pink Panther, Animaniacs, or The Twisted Whiskers Show. Because strictly speaking, that format is like a compilation of shows, and I prefer series where they're supposed to be one show with their respective subplots, but THAT SUBPLAT feels like a separate show, given that the characters in that subplot rarely interact or one plot barely impacts the other. And in turn, the main plot is abruptly interrupted to show how the other pseudo-independent plot progresses.

I'll explain with examples:

1. Malcolm in the Middle

It's well known that Malcolm in the Middle, because the actors were minors, could only be on set part-time. To compensate, they created the subplot of Francis at the military academy, Alaska, and the ranch. When the actors were adults, the subplot almost disappeared, and Francis, when he did appear, was as part of the family's storylines, not in his own.

And I want to emphasize that Francis and his brothers had an episode where they interacted, but I don't think I'm the only one who felt that in the early seasons, the Malcolm at Home episodes or the characters going to Francis's place felt like a crossover between two shows. Both storylines rarely had any impact beyond a phone call Francis made to a family member per episode.

2. Excel Saga.

Excel Saga is an episodic comedy series with several interconnected subplots. Depending on the episode, we might see Excel and Hyatt failing in their attempt to conquer the world, their dog Menchi escaping from Excel, or the Power Rangers fighting Excel's threats without acknowledging her as the author or participant.

But in every episode, exclusive to the anime, there's an independent subplot that interrupts the main plot or is introduced when a character makes a Family Guy-esque comment. This subplot focuses on Pedro, Excel's friend (Colombian according to the Latin American dub; I believe the original is Brazilian) who, after dying at Excel's hands, wanders the Earth as a ghost with the help of a deity, trying to reunite with his sexy wife and son.

There's even a recap episode that covers Pedro's entire subplot.

3. Arrow.

The first five seasons of Arrow were divided between the main storyline, whether it was facing Merlin, Deathstroke, Ra's al Ghul, Damian Dath, or Prometus. But in most episodes, that storyline was abruptly cut short to flashbacks of Oliver's five lost years. I know they tried to force the flashbacks to connect with the main plot; Deathstroke is the only one who, at one point, becomes the villain of both the flashback and the present in the same episode. But essentially, the flashbacks are a survival and drama series like Lost, while Arrow gradually sheds its police procedural roots to become a superhero series with full science fiction and even fantasy elements, given that by that point the Arrowverse, which included The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, and other series, was already established.

Have Agent Six and Grimm had sex? Quick answer, no.

Long answer, In Volume 6 Grimm, when Grimm thought that Adelie, the superhero who appeared out of nowhere, wanted to steal Agent Six, he said, and I quote, "You hateful bitch, coming out of nowhere to steal the Commander from me! I mean, the Commander said he'd be willing to do kinky things to me if I wasn't a clingy follower of Zenarith or if I was okay with him not taking any responsibility."

Which seems to me to complement Volume 3 of the Novel and Chapter 28 of the Manga When Grimm asked Agent Six for help. I quote the part of the Novel.

"Please! If you help me, I'll make it worth it! I'll give you all kinds of sexual favors!"

When I turn to leave, Grimm clings to my hips, crying as he begs for help. "Sexual favors? I already sexually harass you as a way of saying hello..."

"It's true! You've hiked up my skirt and all kinds of stuff! If you're not going to help me now, you should take responsibility for what you've already done and support me!"

And now he's trying to blackmail me. "Alright, fine. I'll do you that favor. But keep in mind that we're both adults. If you try to make a kiss a reward like Snow did, nudity will be the least of your worries."

“...Actually, Commander, do you mind if I have a little more time to think about it?”

In certain translations that I found, it is omitted that they are Sexual favors.

In the mini Stories, which take place between Volumes 1 and 2, Grimm invites Agent Six to spend the night with her. But he quickly realizes how it can be misinterpreted and makes it explicit that it was not an invitation to something sexual.

Here's an observation since I reread the novel: Something that's made very explicit in Volume 1 is that Grimm falls asleep during the day but is vigorous at night. It's even clear that Grimm is bothered by sunlight.

But this changes in the rest of the story. It doesn't even change from one volume to the next; in the Extra of Volume 1, where Agent 6 reads Agent 22's report in Konosuba, it explicitly states that Grimm is enjoying the sun. I'll add that this also gives a clue as to Grimm's age. Grimm mentions reading a novel about a 30-year-old woman falling in love with a younger man surrounded by girls.

And I'm not making this up or taking things out of context. In Volume 2, Grimm gets overexcited when she's in the vehicle for the first time before being thrown off by the pothole.

In Volume 3, it's stated more explicitly that the entire festival takes place during the day, and Rokugo is confident that a zombie isn't scary during the day. Reading that last part took me by surprise; I thought the entire festival plot took place at night or at dusk.

In Volume 4, Grimm's participation is limited to one appearance with an ambiguous time and another that occurs at night. She doesn't participate in the battle of that volume because she falls asleep. In Volume 5, it's revisited that Grimm sleeps during the day. Grimm knocks down the Sand King but accidentally commits suicide while trying to kill him, which is why she doesn't participate in the battle of that volume. In Volume 6, her participation is at night. In Volume 7, she doesn't participate because Belial kills her upon arrival.

In Volume 2 itself, beyond Grimm falling into a coma, it's shown that Grimm wakes up during the day while they're in the ruined laboratory, even though he claims to be sleepy. And in Volume 3, the part in the forest and the bar takes place at night. So it seems the author simply ignores Grimm's lethargy whenever he feels like it.

As an extra detail, this official fan art of Grimm at the beach was released in that volume. The characters in the canon have never been to the beach, and it keeps reminding me of that meme where they made fun of a swimming school making Nezuko swim in the sun.
