I meant to watch this when I woke up, but totally forgot and watched Mashoiroiro Symphony instead...

Now I have to go to work. Will have to watch when I get home, no doubt.

Home now, watched it.

I don't know if I'd go so far as to say it put the last one to shame, but it certainly was even better. Can't wait to see Shana really let loose now.

But yeah, that scene there - that does indeed blow anything else in the series thus far out of the water.

*Recalls the Conservation of Ninjutsu* This could be trouble... but I am interested in seeing the named characters finally *do* something. Especially Sophie.

If I remember correctly, Sophie acts as a trump card until a bit later on. However, she will do "something" later on. If memory serves, this is the midpoint, which also happens to be the start of the war between the Bal Masque and Flame Haze, which was also stated a few episodes back.

Don't quote me on that though, since my memory is a little hazy.

It's not exactly a spoiler, since her actions give this away.

I am only going by what is happening in the anime, since it is deviating a bit, and leaving out a few minor details. I'm not exactly sure if she will or not hence "If I remember correctly", when it comes to anime I don't remember much at all anymore.

I never say direct spoilers unless in a spoiler tag; as I know the basis of the whole plot this season, I would only say something like that if it's not signifigcantly important to the plot.

But since you looked at that post like they were spoiler, then I am sorry about that. I'll edit it with a spoiler tag, and only discuss the plot in spoiler tags from now on.

Edit: For lack of a better term, I used "Flame Haze War" to reference the fight between the Tomogara and flame haze, as the Flame Haze are the ones who have instigated it. I don't particularly like to think the Bal Masque 'wanted' a war to break out, but the Flame Haze, as always have decided to come up against them.

Being ready to fight =/= starting a fight

Spoiler:
That means there is no revolt or dissension among the Flame Haze's ranks... as far as I know, that is.


If anyone wants to come up with a better term for the current 'war', so there will be no confusion in referring to it, please do so and I will use it instead, from this point onward.

And towards something not being important to the plot, I was referring to Sophie. Since the plot generally revolves around Shana and Yuji, I don't see her having a HUGE part for the majority of the show.

But from now on I will just comment on each individual episode instead of pointlessly explaining things, I'll let the story do that instead.

Just watched episode ten, it was great ~
Spoiler:
First and foremost... Keisaku and Margery had sex, no I am not trolling, they literally had sex.
Sophie did 'something', which I wasn't expecting, but it was EPIC. Decarabia also did something as well, and it was epic.

Next episode marks the beginning of the EPIC fights that are in this season!

What's first?
Sabrac of course!


Can't wait for the next episode, seriously, just can't ~

So I'm only 1 minute into the episode and I'm already confused (about something unimportant)
Spoiler:
Last ep the assault begins in a dry, almost desert-looking place. They built the little fort out of sand and rock anyway. And now all of a sudden there's a blizzard? lol


Chalk it up to Flame Haze and/or Tomogara powers I suppose.

Think this is gonna turn in to a running commentary as I watch.
Spoiler:
Sophia makes it seem just as important that Shana is gone as the Trinity.

Keisaku is the man. Finally got through to his stone hard woman.

Decarabia fights, sure doesn't last long Sophia is apparently a badass, but funny looking on the attack.

And up next: Sabrac... again. Thought he died in S2? I'm guessing that would be another JC Staff failure.

THUNDER NUN DROP KIIIIIIIICK!!!

They've got enough unagi to fuel this siege for years now.

Gotta say, if the slow start and all the setup leads to consecutive doses of epic, I can accept that.

That was pretty rocking. XD Decarabia was bigger than I thought, but I enjoyed watching what happened to him.


But yeah, seriously; if the show can actually KEEP GOING with the action parts and not continue to have half-episodes of very little happening, I'll be quite happy. XD;

Spoiler:
Sabrac never died, in season II he was always with the Bal Masque, even when he assaulted them at Misaki City. He was using his clones, via that spell of tying his existence to the city. This was actually explained in Season II, when he was talking to the Trinity and Dantalion as they were working on the Silver.

This is the real Sabrac, so this fight should be rather enjoyable ~

Spoiler:
That attack was TTGL quality, and I don't remember her going and doing that in the novels, so JC STAFF WIN! LOL

The snow... ehh, I always thought in the novels that since it was the mountains it was a time skip. But, no that I think about it the Seireiden is enormous in size, so it could have still taken a while for Shana and company to make their way out.

There might be a slight drop to light action for a bit, because of a few back stories that I doubt they'd leave out. But other than that, it should keep up the pace all season long...
Spoiler:
well until the end.

Since with all conflict, this does come to an end.

I am multitasking so hard, frame-stepping in MPC while grinding Orthogalaxen floor 7 for the Adventurer Ending in Rorona lol.

Here's the preliminary version. It's like 8.5MB, so I'll just put a link here haha. 380 frames overall, I cut 150 of Decarabia imploding out, as well as the obligatory post-ultimate move pose of nobility.
