What to Expect From Sentenced to Be a Hero Episode 3?
Episode 3, titled “Punishment: Leading the Conquest of the Zewan-Gan Mine 2,” will continue the Hero party’s mission to put an end to the demon blight in the mines. In the previous episode, Xylo made a plan to go further down the mines only with the rest of the punishing heroes and ordered Teoritta to stay behind with the Holy Knights.
In the upcoming episode, Xylo and his party will have to fight against the Mushroom Demon King as the synopsis suggests: “Deep inside the mine, what awaited the punished heroes was none other than the Mushroom Castle of the Mushroom Empire, ruled by glowing mushroom people in 255 colours!”

So, gear up for an action-packed episode where not only Xylo, but also other characters such as Norgaelle and Tatsuya are expected to shine in their fight against the demons.
