Maxing Defense and the Eighth Event is the eighth episode of the second season of the BOFURI anime series.

Summary[]

Maple and Syrup destroy a few monsters, and Syrup gains a new skill called Red Flower Garden. They're then joined by Misery, Shin, and Marx, who each show their respective tamed monster to Maple. With that done, they take their leave.

Later at the Maple Tree HQ, Dorazou officially announces more details concerning the Eighth Event and further explains the details of the preliminary part of the event. In that part, players must defeat as many monsters as possible while fending off other players. Before it begins, the Maple Tree members train together in preparation for the event.

Eventually, the Eighth Event begins, and the Maple Tree members are teleported to separate locations. At Maple's site, she defeats most of the monsters that encounter her; however, soon, they become fearful when they approach her and flee. Because of this, Maple checks her skills and sees that she has a lot of buff and debuffs. One of them was Gimmick, which repels lower-level monsters. Maple's luck turns around when she finds a trap that lures monsters toward her and uses it to her advantage.

Meanwhile, Mai is accosted by members of the Congregation of the Holy Swords, who are quickly dealt with by Tsukimi. Mai and Tsukimi are soon joined by Yui riding on Yukimi. Yui then shows Mai how swarms of monsters were ambushing Maple via her map. They were going to help Maple, but before they could make a move, Iz contacts them and warns them she's booby-trapped her surrounding area.

As Iz detonates her traps, Chrome is seen with Necro watching from a clifftop at a safe distance, but is then confronted by two Rock Golems. The Rock monsters, just like the other monsters that had appeared before them, were quickly dealt with. Returning to Yui and Mai, they rode on their tamed monsters hoping to assist Maple, but left immediately after seeing Maple handling her situation with no problem. Elsewhere, Dred and Drag face off against Kanade and Sou, who they seemingly defeat; however, it was a feint trick set up by Kanade. In a forest with a dense fog emanating throughout it, Kasumi slays a few players, and her companion Haku kills a Forest Boar.

Doing her personal scouting mission, Sally finds Mii on her map and decides to spy on her. On a hill, at an open field, Iz, Chrome, Mai, and Yui regroup and brief with each other as Maple gets eaten by a Giant Alligator. Switching over to Sally, she witnesses a clash between Mii and Payne, which is interrupted when Maple, inside the mouth of a Giant Alligator, passes by. Sally stops Maple, who excitedly explains how she managed to tame and control the Giant Alligator while the Administrators watch. Sometime after the Preliminary Event, the Maple Tree members all celebrate qualifying for the Main Event.
