Panties in This Right Hand! (この
Synopsis[]
A low-grade goddess turned arch priest who works hard to acquire party trick skills, a dissapointing arch wizard who can only unleash explosion magic once per day, and Kazuma himself, whose only redeeming quality is his good luck. Kazuma despairs over the completely useless party that's been formed.
Plot[]
Kazuma notices Darkness being turned on over how he supposedly ravaged Aqua and Megumin with slimy play, listens to her tell him that though she is strong and tough she cannot hit her targets, and tries to turn her away. However, Darkness is even more determined to join when hearing about the awful things his party may go through.
Arriving at the Adventurer Guild the next day to see Aqua showing off her Nature's Beauty skill, Kazuma dismisses it as a party trick. He hears he can learn skills after they are demonstrated by other people from Megumin, before she gets upset when he calls her a loli girl. Darkness approaches with a Thief named Chris, who offers to teach Kazuma Thief skills in exchange for bubbly. The three of them go out on the streets, where Chris takes Kazuma's purse during the demonstration of Steal. She challenges Kazuma to steal either her dagger or the purse back from her once he learns Steal, holding two handfuls of rocks in order to make it more challenging to steal a desirable target. He instead inadvertently steals her panties, which he excitedly waves around, to Chris' embarrassment and Darkness' awe.
They return to the Guild, where a tearful Chris recounts how Kazuma bargained for his purse and her valuables in exchange for her panties, damaging Kazuma's reputation. Kazuma then demonstrates Steal only to take Megumin's panties. Darkness again declares her desire to join, and feels pleasure at being rejected once more. With his companions agreeing to let Darkness join, Kazuma tries to scare her, Megumin, and Chris off by saying that his party will go fight the Devil King, only to spur Darkness and Megumin into sticking with him.
Luna broadcasts an emergency quest, which sends townsfolk hiding in panic while all adventurers head outside the city gates. Following along with his party, Kazuma is dumbfounded to find out that their quest is to capture a swarm of flying Cabbages heading towards Axel. The adventurers scramble to harvest the valuable vegetables. Darkness cannot hit any with her broadsword, and instead shields other adventurers injured by the Cabbages, even when her armour and clothing are torn up in the process. While the adventurers admire Darkness for her noble hardiness, which Kazuma identifies as masochistic enjoyment, Megumin blasts the swarm with an Explosion that takes them all out and throws the adventurers about.
Kazuma Steals plenty of the cabbages, but is put out after Aqua uses the Nature's Beauty skill which he dismissed as useless to both preserve the cabbages with clean water and heal the injured. That night, everybody enjoys fried cabbages, and Darkness officially joins Kazuma's party, to his discomfort.

Differences to other versions[]
- In the light novel, Aqua explicitly taught Kazuma her party trick skill Nature's Beauty, while Kazuma only saw Aqua performing the skill in the Anime. In both instances though, Kazuma decided NOT to learn the skill due to the high skill point cost and the useless nature of the skills.
- Chris also taught Kazuma the thief skills "Lurk" and "Detect Enemy," but that is not as obvious in the anime.
- Kazuma did not do the victory swings with Chris' panty in light novel. However, the LN version is not much better off, as Kazuma still threaten to make the panty a family heirloom and swindled all Chris' money.
- Kazuma's threat is a reference to the Mushoku Tensei franchise, which the main character turns his master's panty he stole into a family heirloom.
- In the light novel, Chris originally wore skirts, and ultimately decided to switch to shorts after the panty instance. In the Anime, Chris always wore shorts and did not do any outfit change.
