Spoiler:
OH HERE WE GO Anyways, this is the beginning of the new arc and it already has a lot of info dump and some important characters introduced. I'm expecting the pacing to be around 2 chapters per episode to wrap it up. |
this was a fast ep. info (and events) was excluded, as per the norm. overall, can't wait for this arc to get rolling.
|
That WAS pretty intense infodump, wasn't it?
Still, not a bad ep on the whole. :) It is nice to see Ichihara getting a chance to shine, too - she did not participate in the NSC if I remember rightly, even though Mayumi wanted her to help out as an engineer several eps back. (Ep 8 or 9, maybe?) |
vague timeskip, and a total change in the student counsel members.
RIP Mayumi and Mari. grr...seeing it more and more, I'm starting to hate Tatsuya's auto-distingrating move on people. Its such a cheater move. I could take his other cheating abilities, but argh. Miyuki cosplaying a lot this episode. Sayuri came and went and was so easily forgotten. |
^^ it's foolish to think a character of mayumi's caliber would be sidelined for long :p fan favorite!
|
This episode was mostly an infodump but that doesn't mean it was bad. I like the way they animated Tatsuya's magic this episode more than the previous ones.

Not sure whether to blame the Engrish on the speaker or the scriptwriter. Pronunciation was better than often happens, but word placement and emphasis needed a bit of work. |

What I wonder about though is whether he is still part of the disciplinary comitee or if he was removed by the new chairmen. :uhoh: - I noticed someone looking similar to Leon being there though and they had a flower on their jacket oO. Yet when we see him later hee is still flowerless. And was what happened with that Bullet just some form of calculation or did he turn back time there oO |

The full explanation of what happened in the 2 months between the 9 schools competition and the present time in the anime is covered in the 5th volume of the light novel (basically a collection of shorter stories focused on the supporting characters, rather than the protagonists all the time). It is not mandatory to understand what is going on, but if you find the time skip without explanation too jarring I would advise checking it out (I particularly like the last chapter of the 5th volume, covering the student council president election...) |

FYI: Any additional discussion of the time skip events should take place in one of the novel forum threads.

Wow, that spoken Engrish was better than the written Engrish in earlier episodes.

Tatsuya at his core is a decomposition magician. He can analyze and break down pretty much...well...he's specialty is pretty unique and reason this arc started with such a request. Any magician of sufficient skill can kill a human with lethal force with a number of options, but Tatsuya as explained through the series...really doesn't have as much options. You can say it's a highly effect attack tatsuya has to use, because he can't do much else on an attack level. |
At this point should an anime-only viewer know who Sayuri is and why the animosity exists between her and Miyuki. Step-mother perhaps? Maybe I should go back and watch the episode again, huh?

Their father married her 6 months after their biological mother died. Miyuki is resentful because she's a kid. That's it for now. |
Thanks! Should I try reading anything in Sayuri transporting a high level relic with military significance without having accompanying guards? Stupid character or stupid writers?
BTW: Thanks to everyone's willingness to fill-in, I am able to mostly follow what is going on. :twitch: I am afraid that I would be lost otherwise. So thanks again. |
Uhm just voted 1 >_< it's bad episode for me :T_T:
|
I got scared when Tatsuya got shot. :eek:
