man yall made me go back i and check that i felt like i was having a fever dream when she just ended up accepting with that smile but the worse thing ended up happening the crazy bitch got fully pushed to the edge seriously thought someone was gonna die with that axe

i was fully sympathizing with her till the ED cut , constantly being told she won't be good enough and nobody believed in her even her own blood ,from the start we've all seen how angry she is and her hatred has been blown by pure envy

praying her mom ant dead.

Is something seriously the matter with Shingetsu? Why on Earth would she think giving Anna that speech when she was down on her knees in abject horror was a good idea?

Plus she lied to Anna again, by telling her she was going to carry on her wishes, when she's planning on destroying magic altogether.

Same problem as precious episode ,,The mother is really something,, Softly saying her daughters name when she trying to murder people with a axe!!!!!,,,But i liked when Suishou put the crazed redhead female firmly in placed,,,Still 1/10 but im curios if its going to have something lesbian in the remaining episodes!!!

For that Suishou is now consider a lesbian and my waifu!!! Good job Honey!!!,,Love that smile ,,I guess you can have 1 point for that 2/10

Tremendous episode What a shocking final, I knew that the crazy madwoman, Anna, wouldn't give up her crazy obsession and accept the truth so easily. His smile looked so fake. She's a crazy bitch! Did she kill her own mother?! What she has done is unforgivable. Now I hate her more than before.

On the other hand, it bothers me that Mangetsu is so pessimistic, but he is right that she is the only one who does not have a strong desire or reason to enter Granbelm.
It amazes me how Nene took his defeat so calmly and even spoke with Mangetsu. What I don't understand is why Nene is smaller than her sisters, they are supposed to be triplets, Magic? Hahaha.

I hope Anna is defeated once and for all in the next episode.

Its mentioned that some effect of magic is keeping her middle school age despite being an adult. It's hinted that this is true for Suishou too as she looked around the same age in Anna's childhood as she does now.

This is the best episode so far i loved it.At the end when Anna looked so calmed i was like "Lets see, they just told you everything you thought about yourself is a lie and your dream will never be, but you are happy?WTF?" But when the ED was cut i thought there has to be something and daaaaamn that bitch is crazy i didnt expect that.I love this anime

Why does Mangetsu even exist? The dynamic between Shingetsu and Anna is the only thing entertaining in this show and Mangetsu just kind of gets in the way.

Perhaps she wouldn't have such a severe inferiority complex(leading to insanity) if the mother had stopped shitting on her. There's setting realistic goals for your kid, and then there's rubbing salt in the wound constantly. It was almost comical with how much her mom was shitting on her this episode. Jesus...

And why lie to her about that power for years? Should've told her the truth. ALSO THAT AFTER CREDITS SCENE HOLY CRAP. Insanity, indeed.

wtf i was about to comment "oh even with that fake smile, maybe she finally gave up" ... just to see that ending ... holy shit

tbh after all that happened to her recently, hearing that all her life was a lie (at least about her magic power)... i kinda felt bad for Anna for the first time, so that ending is very acceptable to me

I almost dropped it on episode 4, then on episode 5, but this episode was so much better. We finally understand a little more of the fight between the mages. "The Witch". Give me more Madoka vibes!

I... Don't really blame Anna? She thinks her family favoured someone else instead of her. All she wanted to be since she was a kid was a mage, and yet Ernesta and her mom deceived her to believe she may have had the potential for that.

Ernesta is annoying.

Now Anna went and killed? her mom to get the big jewel. Since she doesn't have much magical power she's probably going to get hurt. The cut in the ending scared the shit out of me.

Most of these characters are generally unlikeable. That said, that ending cut really surprised me. I did think it was out of place how easily she accepted things, eerily so.

so anna disliked Ernesta for joining the battle ? or because she was favoured more by her mum or she had better magic power then her

they kept that to themselves a bit too long now, anna has a warped personalty now they should have told her sooner, anna seems to be power crazed and wants to make up for her lack of 'talent'.

but doing that to your mum is uncalled for she had good intentions but she also did keep it a secret for too long , this could have been prevented if she was told sooner but anna was too far gone with only revenge in her mind i guess

WTF... she killed her own MOM...

That's F'd up...

Anna really needs to die... literally kill her, don't just beat her in the magic BR.

(also, I am pretty sure Anna gone crazy the day she noticed Ernesta has better magic control than her... which is actually just days after that flashback in this episode of them doing the fire/ice thing) (cause Anna thought she has the magic power to do what no one else could, but got beat within the year by Ernesta, so she got jealous and shit)

You mean like how EVERY SINGLE PARENT that loves their child has done? by praising them on even the smallest achievements they done?

yea, you should never praise your child, cause you're deceiving them...

Praising your child for the little achievements they get is one thing, making your child believe for their entire life that they have something they don't is just cruel as fuck. Anna is clearly not right in the head, but when she was a child she seemed alright, so I guess all the deceiving is what make her so crazy.

I think she was very reasonable (taking into account that she was lied to her entire life) and well-written, but if the only way you can see her is "she needs to die because she's a jealous bitch" that's on you.

Alright so the drama build up of Shingetsu and Anna finally concludes this episode and... it's fucking good. This wasn't the standard boring copypaste backstory we're used to, it was actually unique and connected to the world of the anime and it was really well done. And then everything gets wrapped up perfectly and the credits roll, amazing epi- wait, what?

yo i wonder what it says about me that i was really pissed for annas sake about the whole sitch,., i probably got some deep rooted inferiority-stemmed-from-superiority complex like anna. i was almost big pissed cause i thought they really had her forgive ernesta,., i was also thinking i would probably kill myself out of spite so i thought that was what she did after the ed but nope

smh i knew that wasnt gonna end well i mean hell she was ready to kill shingetsu with an axe so of course after finding out the truth she was gonna lose her shit as she was already crazy and that just made it go out of control

but yeah it was nice to see her get beat though at first but of course i knew she wouldnt just give up not to mention the blue haired girl she's another one she pretty much edged her on im sure

all in all good ep now things are about to get really crazy

This show's starting to grow on me ! It is flawed, but it is becoming more and more interesting.
I was happy to see Nene again, though disappointed that the consequences of her defeat haven't been properly adressed and that her return has just been played for laugh.
Shuisho's definitely an intriguing character, I can't wait to hear the truth about her. Plus, she's so unpredictable, it makes her very entertaining.
Anna's losing it, it looks like the reveal (that I didn't expect) completely brole her but then she looked calmed down... I wonder if she'll truly do as Shingetsu said.
Mangetsu's growing on me as well. She's stereotypical in almost every department, but at the same time she is pretty undearing. And I love her Madoka-like voice, so soothing. I'm afraid to see how things will play out for her.
I still don't have that much interest in Shingetsu though, Kuon either.

Edit : Wait, after reading the thread, I find out there's actually something after the ED ?! I hate when shows do that, I don't always think about letting the ED play in case something would happen...

Edit 2 : Okay, after watching the scene post-credit, I can confirm we lost Anna's remaining sanity. That was a bit scary actually.

Another normal-life episode. I guess Nene's sisters suddenly came back from Hong Kong (I love how they call her Nene-nee lol)

I was really confused as to how after Shingetsu and Anna's mom totally shat on her that she went from almost killing Ernesta with an axe to “Ganbare Ernesta!!!” but YIKES after the credits I was like okay that was all just a show o_o While she's psycho, I can see why she's upset, but she went WAAAYYY over the top there O_o

Suishou left Anna's side, so she's gonna be solo now? I have a feeling she's a lot stronger than we know yet and she could be a big problem
