In Blue Dragon Uncut season 1 episode 4, titled "Underwear Is The Trump Card," the story follows a group of young adventurers on a journey to stop an evil force threatening their world. The protagonist, a boy named Shu, possesses a powerful blue dragon that aids him in battle against the forces of darkness. The previous episode saw Shu and his companions defeating one of the ruling generals of the dark army, Zola.
The episode begins with Shu and his group taking some time to relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. However, their peaceful outing is interrupted by a group of bandits who attempt to steal their belongings. Shu and the gang easily overpower the thieves, but they learn that the group's leader is a former comrade of Jiro, one of Shu’s teammates. Jiro had once saved the thief's life, and the latter is willing to repay the debt by joining the group.
As they continue their journey, the team comes across a small town that is being terrorized by a giant worm. The worm is constantly stealing the town's food supply, leaving the residents in a state of starvation. Shu and the gang decide to help the town and track down the worm. In the process, they come across a clothing store, where they meet a woman named Kluke.
Kluke is a talented seamstress who forms an immediate bond with the group, especially Marumaro, a diminutive member of the gang who has a penchant for flirting with women. Kluke helps them sew up new, stylish outfits that are much better suited to their adventures than their old clothes. In the process, Jiro appears to have a growing fondness for Kluke.
The team eventually tracks down the worm, and Shu engages it in battle. However, despite his best efforts, Shu is unable to defeat the creature. In a stroke of luck, Marumaro uses a pair of underpants as a distraction, buying Shu just enough time to deliver the finishing blow. The team is hailed as heroes by the town, and Kluke decides to join them on their journey.
Throughout the episode, we see the dynamics of the group continue to grow and evolve. Shu is still coming to terms with his position as leader and learning how to best utilize the skills of his teammates. Jiro is learning to confront his own past and emotions, particularly in relation to Kluke. Meanwhile, Marumaro continues to be a source of comic relief, always looking for an opportunity to flirt with the ladies.
"Underwear Is The Trump Card" is a lighthearted and fun episode that focuses on the relationships between the characters. While there is action and adventure throughout the episode, it is the quieter moments that stand out. The friendship and camaraderie between the team is heartwarming and adds an extra layer of depth to the characters. The addition of Kluke to the team also opens up new avenues for storytelling and interaction between the characters.
Overall, Blue Dragon Uncut season 1 episode 4 is an enjoyable and engaging episode that showcases the strengths of the series.
