Oh so that cowgirl Mei-tan wasn't gone after all, not completely on screen anyways. Kinda figured since the show pulled off a trick similar to this already.

Nyaa-tan seriously needs to be careful with she brings home though lol. I guess the show is preparing for its final with the buildup this episode. I mean, it makes sense that Chuu-tan will be the final boss...

Mo-tan ;-;

Finally, Nya-tan's memories are back, but it feels incomplete. I hope they'll fill it up next week. And can't wait for the final battle.
The world shall know the truth soon.

So, what I got from that was that Chu-tan's Sol/Lull got corrupted due to her obsession with perfect balance and due to everyone relying on her way too much and not even trying to solve their own problems. Other than that, it's good that Nya-tan finally got her memories back, and I'm sure that will have a major bearing on what goes down in the final battle.

Also, how did none of the Eto-shin anticipate their Sol/Lull being overwhelmed by Chu-tan's negative Sol/Lull like that? hat was such an obvious outcome that saying that they didn't even consider it as a possibility is absurd.

I kinda wonder if a residual (barely alive) Moo-tan can bring Nyaa-tan's memories back so easily, why couldn't she have done this sooner before Chuu-tan went all mad/crazy in this episode? Could've spare her from being destroyed as well.

Then again, judging from the last episode, they (the zodiac) probably didn't know the source of Nyaa-tan's amnesia until Chuu-tan revealed that Kagura Senguu technique (thus allowing Moo-tan to figure out what to do to bring Nyaa-tan's memories back).

There are a couple of things that come to mind:

1.There is the possibility of them (The Zodiac) not thinking of the outcome because of the pressure of the issue made them desperate to find a solution until Nyaa-tan's memories return (otherwise Chuu-tan could've gone berserk before Nyaa-tan's recovery).

It's like a feeling on what immediate decisions need to be make during a war or a serious situation.

2. The method was working initially with only Moo-tan's residual Sol/Lull. If it worked with only a fraction of one Eto-Shin's Sol/Lull, why not the rest of them (Zodiac)?

3. Combining (1.) and (2.):
The rest of the Zodiac was desperate to find a solution until Nyaa-tan's memory recovered, so they decide to use the method that was currently working (at the time before it stop working) which was using the Eto-Shins' Sol/Lull to suppress Chuu-tan's negativity (something that was working with only a fragment of Moo-tan's Sol/Lull).

4. In a way, the method in (2.) was like a unique battle of 11 vs. 1. So it was sort of at their favor initially (it was initially working with only a part of one Eto-shin's Sol/Lull).

-Plus this advice did come from an medical-expert Eto-shin (Mei-tan).

Nya-tan's pre-amnesia personality while almost the same was pretty damn cool. It's like she had the mysterious BA vibe to her.

So Mo-tan comes back for a final goodbye ... :( Dang, seems like Chu-tan and Nya-tan have quite the past eh? She was the reliable leader and she was the wandering journeyer ... or something XD Anyway, too bad Mei-tan's plan to heal Chu-tan backfired when she started stealing all their energy instead >_< Finally Nya-tan's memories are back though! Final battle incoming?!

Well this episode confirmed that Mo-tan can't reincarnate anymore however I suspect that if she does come back (which I'm half expecting) then it will be because Chu-tan used the Etotama Kagura Senguu to recreate her (it's the destroyer and creator of Etotama).

Also we find out a bit more about Nya-tan and Chu-tan's past, from the ED you can suspect that they used to be close but something(s) happened and now Chu-tan resents Nya-tan. I initially guessed that Chu-tan was possessed or under the influence of some other force making her act the way she is but apparently her Etotama is making her Sol/Lull into negative energy (close enough) which actually makes sense since Sol/Lull is an energy made of emotions, as to why Chu-tan's Etotama is that way I guess we'll find out in the next episode

This anime...

It's mainly 7/10 so far. And it's mainly agreed upon that it's 7/10.

It has no upskirt panty shots, but the shounen lead actually has a spine in him.

So why does the Wapanese watchers of this show rank it so low?

Chu-tan is really really unlikeable, even in the flashbacks.

This episode had great great parts and slightly cringeworthy parts together, 7/10 overall.

Appreciable overall the episode, which shows all projected towards the final battle between Chu-tan-tan and Nya, the story shows the last flashback useful to understand the current situation. Drawings and animations of good quality, I now awaits only the final episode, I hope will be up to it.

Yay Nya-tan got her memories and powers back! Although she really needs to be careful about what she brings back lol. So Chu-tan was super good at one point after all.

But man that episode was confusing. The transitions between scenes and past/present were not smooth at all...

Looking forward to the final battle!

Their plan backfiring wasn't really a surprise tbh, it probably made Chu-tan even stronger. Next episode we'll finally get the flashback which explains why Chu-tan is so mad and Nya-tan beating Chu-tan.

Backstory finally dropped hard here.

From what i understand:

Nya-tan kind of the strong eto-musume and had a habit to can't stand to idle protecting one country, or even worst, just one region. So she decided to ignore the first festival created by Gods and not becoming an eto-shin. Chu-tan covered that up as 'she tricked her'.

At first Chu-tan can stand the situation as the leader of those eto-shin and return back all girls shenanigans with smiles. But for a long run, she can't hold back anymore, and decided to fight Nya-tan as a result to her frustration being ignored by Nya-tan for a so long time.

60 years prior she manage to defeat Nya-tan and her late realization of Chu-tan frustration. Chu-tan at that point already strong enough with all the negative emotions and manage to make Nya-tan in reincarnation circle. Still Chu-tan etotama deep down have a feel toward Nya-tan. So Chu-tan even if she manages to defeat her, deep down there's a needs to protect Nya-tan. In a result, Chu-tan unable to destroy Nya-tan etotama.

Back to present, Chu-tan negative Sol/lull manages to fully control hers. As a result of these episodes, Nya-tan return fully as her origin needs to find a way to get everything normal. The power of Takeru might be the key, so its a good idea Nya-tan brings him on her side....


Alright, enough of my recapping lol. So far this is a good series. Quite enjoying this, even if the gag humour kind of a let down. I can see myself giving this a good score.

Let's see the final.
