Fun Fact: In Japan, there's the saying "a duck coming over, carrying an onion", which is used to describe someone who's just asking to be killed/bullied, an easy target, or a lucky opportunity (because duck and onions go well together). And yes, it's the inspiration behind Pokemon's Farfetch and the "duxions" in Konosuba - in fact, they're both called "Kamonegi" (short form of the saying) in Japanese
I thought the German translation of this was funny cause they named the duck Lauchente (leek duck) which rhymes with Laufente (runnning duck) which is a real duck breed. I was curious what the joke in Japanese would be.
@Redmenort345 Davis There's no need for a Darkness spinoff, I think you're being selfish trying to get what you wanted that's not gonna happen, all we got is Megumin's story, that's it! If we had a Darkness spinoff, that'll be so farfetched, ok? We learned enough about her
100% megumin was justified. She's got a little sister at home that tries to eat stray cats, a cute duck doesn't get to the honor of life at that point 😅
Keep in mind that Megumin knows what it means to go hungry. She only does what she HAS TO to survive. She's not spoiled with the luxury of not slaughtering her own meat like most of us first world-ers. She's not being cruel for cruelty's sake. She's just isn't naive about where food comes from, and isn't afraid to do the dirty work herself as a matter of necessity and survival.
Just so you all know Farfetch'd is based on an old Japanese saying about "a duck comes bearing spring onions" which is a lucky break because you got dinner and the fixings at the same time.
fun fact A ducks p3n1s is spiraled like a corkscrew, can be 7 inches long, has a barbed tip, designed to by pass the females multiple layers of defence to avoid impregnation, and that any males that don't have a mate tend to band together to form r@p3 gangs... and this is true in most male ducks degardless of species
Best part is later in the episode there’s another and yunyun starts saying how she wants to be able to protect them and margin in just walks over and snaps it’s neck

This duck and the Pokemon duck are supposed to be based on a Japanese expression “Kamo ga negi wo shottekuru" it means something like good, lucky, and convenient things will come and happen. Because the duck brought the leek over to for you to eat it with
this actually shows that Megumin is competetive alchemist without investing any points into it, well, Arue helped, but they were able to make restorative potion which would be normally too costly to buy
incorrect, crimson demons are known for being fashionable if it makes them look cool. they would choose the flashy outfits first before thinking about stat boosts. even megumin is no exception.
Which, now that I think about it, they also behave very like her parents. Do you remember when Megumin's parents fought for the given food? IT REALLY sounded like Megumin and Kazuma fighting for stuff like taking a bath, which might also explain why the mom suspected Kazuma wasn't just a friend.
Gained tons of EXP. Ate a very nice gourmet dish. Made Yunyun freak out. That's killing three birds with one stone. No wait, uh... It doesn't spund right when she actually *strangled* the bird instead...

@@Dubanx deeper introspection than I thought id see from this! However I think she mainly killed the duck for more XP so she could get explosion magic faster not because she was starving here. She already had food being made in front of her. She definitely has a mean side lol.
@@ThirdXavier They are making a healing potion actually, for another classmates little brother. But yes, when another duxion shows up it's dinner time! and XP.
@@ThirdXavier Plus in the novels, no mention of it being delicious is mentioned. Yunyun just said it gave good EXP and Megumin pulled the trigger before she could even finish her sentence.

That is also why Farfetch is called that, as a duck coming with an onion "is too good to be true"
And then Farfetch'd smacks you WITH the onion.
thanks for the context, it was quite interesting (though this is coming from someone who listens to the Saga Of Tanya light novel audiobooks)

That's probably the most gamer thing Megumin has ever done.
@Redmenort345 Davis But if you already lost interest why the series being about Darkness would matter?
So far, for all we know...

A sympathetic heart can’t fill your poverty stomach!
And xp farming out saving cute animals, especially if they are delicious 😂
and can't fill your xp bar
You can't spend sympathy points on explosion magic either
the face of betrayal on Yunyun’s face is the best😂
Yeah. The duxions don’t really hurt anyone right?
EXP and a gourmet meal? Yeah, I would have done the same thing as Megumi did without hesitation.
Yeah, it was kinda their fault for even mentioning those facts, so...
Eating the duck alone would have made me do what Megumin did. Large exp as well is a bonus.
Soy ese ❤
Completely Yunyun and Arue’s own fault. At least Megumin put it down quickly.
don’t worry she’s gonna nuke their habitat later 😂
This is why Megumin is my favorite in Konosuba. She’s doesn’t hesitate when achieving her goals.
Aqua also does not hesitate when it is about reaching for alcohol.

She a L tbh
I always wondered if people ate pokemon like we do animals and, i think this anime gave me the answer i was looking for. RIP Farfetch'd 😂
That's why it originally is hard to get one in gen 1 because they're almost extinct from eating too many.
@@Zack_Wildfire look at you coming in with lore. You're definitely not wrong though.
There are some pokedex entries that mention various pokemon used for food.
And with Magikarp being all bones it makes a delicious broth for the farfetch'd to be in
@@Ushio01 I wonder how good they would taste😂😂
That duck was everything megumin needed in that moment... Perfection in storytelling
Megumin used Neck Snap!
Farfetch'd perished!
Megumin gain 175 EXP.
@@songtaowang3603-Megumin had Level up
-Megumin has learned "EXPLOSION!"
If Kazuma gave a lot of xp and was also delicious, Megumin wouldn't hesitate
Pre movie maybe, post movie/vol 5 no.
Canibalism? Megumin?... Maybe :v
I mean I'm sure he's at least one of those things to her
My man is worth 2 whole experience points.
Just so you all know Farfetch'd is based on an old Japanese saying about "a duck comes bearing spring onions" which is a lucky break because you got dinner and the fixings at the same time.
Nice fun fact!
Oh that’s why it’s called that? Neat!
didn’t know Farfetch’d would make a cameo appearance
That doesn’t sound so FARFETCH’D……………….😅
Damn it! I was about to say that
@@Prince_Xingqiu Same; I was about to say it as well.
Duxions aren't the same as Farfetch'd, despite the similarities.
@@blukmage19typeR its called Kamonegi in japanese, thats literally the same name as farfetchs japanese name
Megumin captures a Farfetch'd and with no hesitation kills it for food. RIP Farfetch'd .
Can we all just agree ducks are too cute to be monsters
Try telling that to a Goose
Those things ARE Monsters
Let's see how long that sentiment lasts when you do some research on duck reproductive habits.
Ehhhhhhh... remember, all birds are really mini-dinosaurs.
fun fact
A ducks p3n1s is spiraled like a corkscrew, can be 7 inches long, has a barbed tip, designed to by pass the females multiple layers of defence to avoid impregnation, and that any males that don't have a mate tend to band together to form r@p3 gangs...
and this is true in most male ducks degardless of species
No
Love how it's just a regular duck with an onion tied to it
No hesitation. She went in for that delicious roasted duck.
the face of betrayal on Yunyun is the best😂
Megumin didn't hesitate.
She usually don't.
That's why she is best girl.
I mean, that duck’s fate was sealed at the mention of EXP
Best part is later in the episode there’s another and yunyun starts saying how she wants to be able to protect them and margin in just walks over and snaps it’s neck
Hesitation is defeat
XP dump AND it’s good eating? Yeah, that was a dead duck walking as soon as it came across Megumin
Megumin is a Farfetch'd look-alike killer.
Not just for points but for a nice meal to take home she showed know mercy
know mercy 😬
Megumin used Crunch on Farfetche'd! Critical hit! It's super-effective!! Farfetche'd has fainted. :P
Yeah... Fainted...
But Crunch is Dark Type Moves, while Farfetche'd is Fighting Pokémon. So it's not very effective...

For Megumin to learn how to use Explosion within the shortest time possible, she had to become a true Monster.

Are there any other animes featuring a duck with a green onion?
@@linkskywalker5417 I think not, just pokemon and this anime
In all fairness, they did say it gives huge exp and that it’s edible.
The former to get Explosion magic faster, and the latter for obvious reasons
What gets me isn't that she kills it, its how she does it 😂😂
And that’s when megumin earned the nickname “The duxion slayer”
Better than chicken kicker
I love this anime series. I really hope we get a season three of regular Konosuba
I believe it's in the works right now.
already confirmed B:)
I love that she specifically says "cute life".
this actually shows that Megumin is competetive alchemist without investing any points into it, well, Arue helped, but they were able to make restorative potion which would be normally too costly to buy
Megumin’s the type of gamer to put clown shoes on her armour because it has higher stats.

Me hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaha
1:26 You must never hesitate ~ Sean Connery in The Rock (RIP Bond)
Yun-yun is right! That farfetched is too cute to be eaten.
I want to SEE Rie Takahashi doing that laugh
"Megumin is a menace and must be stopped" - the Duck gang gang
Megumi knows what to do to survive. Savage
This hits different after the first episode of season 3
Megumin’s laugh at the start *chef’s kiss
The sentient tuber that got its root torn off screams sausage party to me.
Yunyun should have foresaw the moment Megumin realize that a duxion is rich flavor and exp the fate of the duck would be decided.
Yunyun:😮😢😢
Megumin:😈😈😈
Megumin: "You're not cute if you're food."
Come on, she considers Chomsuke to be emergency rations. The moment she heard the word delicious...
Now that's ducked up
You could see YunYun’s innocence leaving her eyes as she saw Megumin strangle that poor duck😂
"Dear animal protectors, if animals are not made to be killed, then why do they drop exp? Curious"
-Gamer Megumin
It’s cool that duck had nothing left to live for after they took his onion
So really Megumin did him a favor
He just wanted to become a Sirfetch'd 🤣
And he was just one critical hit away from evolving...
Megumin is like Kazuma.
No wonder they make a good couple…
Which, now that I think about it, they also behave very like her parents. Do you remember when Megumin's parents fought for the given food? IT REALLY sounded like Megumin and Kazuma fighting for stuff like taking a bath, which might also explain why the mom suspected Kazuma wasn't just a friend.
As Thanos once said: The Hardest Choices require the Strongest of Wills."😂
For those not in the know she's poor so if she can get a gourmet food, basically free, she's going to do it
What a brutal monster Megumin is, she does not hesitate in ripping defenseless creatures apart alive 😮
_"I'm gonna do what's called a Pro-Gamer Move"_ - *Megumin*
Duck : that's all folks 😅
A duck with a leek sword?
Seems a bit “Farfetch’d” to me.
😏
Wait until it evolves and the leek sword becomes a leek lance; now that's Sirfetch'd.
IS a Farfetch'd
Farfetch'd never stood a chance.
Went from DuckTales to duck soup for me.
This duck looks like a pokemon with thinner body.
Damn..that got dark quackly...
Le VERITABLE Canarticho!!!!
Gained tons of EXP.
Ate a very nice gourmet dish.
Made Yunyun freak out.
That's killing three birds with one stone.
No wait, uh... It doesn't spund right when she actually *strangled* the bird instead...
Megumin used Strangle. It was super effective!
I don't remember Farfetch'd offering a lot of experience points or being a delicacy... Maybe if Megumin waited for it to evolve into Sirfetch'd...
Btw Kamonegi, or Onion Duck is also the Japanese name of the Pokemon Farfetch'd
bonus fun fact: Kamonegi is also the japanese name for the pokeon Farfetch’d
Anyone else think it’s hilarious how downright evil she is in this episode? 😂🤣

Megumin really wanted to eat that Farfetch'd
Guess you could say Megumin Found the situation a little bit...."Farfetch'd" if you know what I mean
I thought the joke was that the duck would have died from shock by seeing his onion being cut
Same
Megumin wins. DUCKALITY!!!!
0:07 Jeez, cool it down girl
0:26 Farfetch'd?!?!? it's that you my boy?!??!
It's Fartfech'D😮 , from Pokémon
Is that a farfetch'd i see maybe it's a pokemon reference? Because the leak and duck together = farfetch'd
Megumin you fool, without the onion on it's back, it's no longer a duxion, just a regular duck.
Megumin just doesn’t give a duck.
I think Megumin became a duck advocate after enjoying hours of Goose Goose Duck
In that corner does that duck remind you of Farfetch'd from Pokémon?
Don't mess with Yunyun 😔
Megumin and Kazuma would get along fine with Harley Quinn. The three of them are sociopaths.
Eh. Debatable. Even in Harley's case.
This looks like a job for Ducktective.
I don't blame Megumin. Ducks are delicious.
Cameo duck 🦆 Farfetch'd.
I saw the video thumbnail and was like
"Is that a f***ing Farfetch'd" with Cell's voice 😂
Duck with the onion tied to it, duck and green onion is a classic udon combo
Duck: choked
“IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ME!”
That's a Pokémon. Ohhhh myyyy gawd!!!!!!!!!
Reminds me of farfetch'd😊😅
