As a seasoned gamer who has dabbled in the labyrinthine world of DanMachi since its inception, I must say that this week’s episode was nothing short of a rollercoaster ride! The bond between Bell and Syr deepened as they managed to evade the relentless pursuit of the Freya Familia, adding a thrilling layer to their budding relationship.


This section reveals plot details from the third episode of season 5 of “Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?” titled “Odr: Partner”, currently available for streaming on HiDive.

In the past few days, the fifth season of “Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon” has changed its speed and intensified the action. Following Syr’s urgent plea for Bell Cranel to kidnap her, the Freya Familia is on a mission to locate them both. At present, their primary objective is to secure Syr’s release, though it also involves getting rid of Bell Cranel in the process – a daring plan that has been initiated without Freya’s knowledge or approval.

The recent occurrences have added intrigue to the real bond between Syr and the Freya Familia, since it’s quite unusual for the strongest guild in DanMachi to search frantically for a simple tavern owner. Furthermore, hints about Syr’s true character were dropped in the latest episode of Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon, but her divine nature and connection with Freya continue to be shrouded in mystery.

Bell And Syr’s Daring Escape

Bell Sweeps Syr Away From the Freya Familia

Following Syr’s order to abduct her, Bell and Syr cleverly slipped away from the scrutiny of Freya Familia. Although they managed to slip past them and flee into the city, the Freya Familia persistently trailed them. Given their vast number of 150 members, the Freya Familia can sweep across Orario effortlessly. However, Bell Cranel’s skillful evasion techniques underscored his well-deserved nickname, Rabbit’s Foot.

On their romantic outing, Bell and Syra find themselves at a dinner cruise that had earlier been taken over by Hestia and the waitstaff from the local tavern. However, their peaceful evening was disrupted when the Freya Familia intruded. Yet again, they were spotted by the familia, but Bell and Syra skillfully evaded them, leading to a private moment between the two. Although no significant developments have occurred between them thus far, the upcoming episode promises to delve deeper into this private interaction.

DanMachi Expands Its Worldbuilding

The latest Episode Adds on to Orario’s Worldbuilding

As a devoted fan, I must say, this recent episode of DanMachi has significantly broadened the horizons of its world-building! For the past four seasons, Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon mainly focused on the dungeon and the Tower of Babel, leaving much of Orario unexplored. But this latest episode brought a fresh perspective by highlighting some notable city landmarks – something I’ve never seen before in DanMachi!

The first noteworthy location is the Fulland Cathedral, a prominent structure in the city with roots in an epic tale of Orario. Though it’s based on a story rather than a deity – an unusual sight given the city’s abundance of mythical gods and goddesses – the Cathedral holds great significance for the city. The second location is the Heroes Bridge, where numerous hero statues stand, including the one honoring the man who vanquished the dragon from Orario.

According to Syr, there’s a missing statue on the bridge, which is intended for a future hero who will become the main figure and guardian of Orario. Essentially, Syr seems to be suggesting that Bell Cranel might assume this role, implying that in time, his statue could stand next to the one commemorating the warrior who previously saved the city from a dragon.

Syr’s Search for Her Odr

Syr’s Ties to Norse Mythology Further Deepen

In the context of DanMachi, Syr talks about her quest for her equivalent character, ‘Odr,’ which is inspired by Norse mythology. According to Norse tales, Odr symbolizes Freya’s husband who leaves her for extended periods, as tradition suggests. Freya is famed for weeping golden tears while waiting for Odr, demonstrating her deep feelings for him. In other words, Syr refers to her search for a counterpart resembling the DanMachi version of Odr.

I want to meet my Odr.

The idea of discovering one’s Odro is closely associated with the Freya Family, since goddess Freya is on her own quest for her Odro. Currently, Ottar leads the Freya Family, and his character is rooted in Odro mythology. However, the series introduces this concept of a hero independently. Freya thinks that Bell Cranel is meant to be his Odro, and now Syr has echoed this belief.

In the anime titled “Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon“, only Syr and Freya are characters who’ve spoken about needing Odr. This strengthens the connection between Syr and goddess Freya, as well as suggesting that Syr is connected to Norse mythology. Previous theories have suggested that Syr might be a manifestation of Freya, and these recent events make those ideas even more plausible.
