Shangri-La Frontier episode 17 recap
Shangri-La Frontier Episode 17 continued the battle against Wezaemon. In the episode, the battle transitioned to the third phase, and Sunraku’s team orchestrated to take down the monster.
However, the monster’s unexpectedly unique attacks caught Sunraku’s team off-guard. Kirin, Wezaemon’s horse mount golem, turned into a powerful mecha, and the team’s strategies seemed limited in front of this move.
Sunraku decided to put his beetle helmet to use in order to defend himself against the attacks. He also went on to use dual blades to attack the monster back. Finally, Sunraku’s strategy was useful, thereby giving him and his team an edge.
The narrative takes an unexpected turn when the truth behind Sunraku’s necklace comes into the picture. As it turns out, Sunraku’s necklace is associated with Wezaemon’s lore. This ends up in various attacks from the monster.
In the end, Wezaemon launches a deadly attack on Sunraku, but the episode ends before concluding the consequence of the attack.
