Welp, this episode confirms that Akutsu truly cares about Lily as he went berserk and took down Zwei. Who can blame him though? Zwei has such an ergo that he deserved it. I hated how Zwei treated others.

The only unfortunate part is Akutsu can't control himself until his senses came back. By far the most emotional episode for Akutsu yet.

Aw shit, Masatora's gone full devil mode.

Lily sheds tears after being hurt by Zwei. Witnessing her in that state, Masatora reaches the peak of his anger, awakening the power of the devil within him. With his overwhelming power, he overwhelms Zwei, moments away from delivering the final blow when Lily stands in his way. However, consumed by rage, Masatora even begins to attack Lily. While trying to make Masatora regain his sanity, Lily realizes that he's not responding to the collar even though it's active, but not working. It was then that Lily and Zwei realized the truth: Masatora possessed five wings, suggesting they operated similarly to their own, but with a distinct essence.

Seriously bruh, Zwei gets nothing out of embarrassing Lily in front of Masatora, so why do it. Lily does NOT deserve this. When Masatora went full devil mode and started laying the smackdown on those clones and then straight up punched Zwei? That was epic. And he didn't stop with just one punch, he kept going, delivering multiple beatdowns. The animation was surprisingly good for a show like this. But the best part was when Masatora saved Lily and put Zwei in his place. Way to go, Masatora.

I can't help but wonder if what Lillia said was true. If it is, I hope Masatora can be there for Lily and support her through it all.

Rad episode. Once in a while it's nice to see Akutsu in a seriously powerful mode. He can be totally submissive and totally dominative, why does this sound so dirty?

I feel like one could say this about many anime, but seriously, what even is this show? The transition from the dumb, broad comedy of the first few episodes, to a more traditional rom-com, to hints of a larger, more intricate plot amidst large action set pieces: calling this a tonal shift is a bit of an understatement.

And I’m not even complaining. Has been a strange but pleasant surprise.

Akutsu going berserk was awesome to see, the fight with Zwei felt like an obliteration where I saw some satisfying punches. Although he was probably still not at 100 % since those were not all his wings.

Amane claims Zwei never physically harmed her, but still fuck him for that humiliation, no need to go that far.

Its nice that we got to see the other end of the convo that he had before moving to aid Lily. That sure was one hell of a power up sequence though. Beserker Akutsu would be a very apt term for this form of his. And man that battle sure did escalate. In the end im glad that Lily was able to bring him back to his senses through the memories they had together. It must had been pretty frustrating for Lilia to see her master in peril and be unable to help her though. The insight into Lily's upbringing was nice though. And while Zwei might have shown his true form im curious at what Lily's other sis is like.

I think this show does not know what it wants to be. Emotional, funny, serious ? It is simply not good in anything.

Still don’t get how this show could possibly be scored this low on MAL. Awesome episode, Lily brother got exactly the type of ass whooping he deserved. Been waiting on this ever since last week’s ep

Akutsu powered up form is so cool, the black wings are dope and a nice nod to the shit Zwei was talking last week about Lily not having wings. And that’s not even Masatora’s full power. Pretty sure he’d have a whole other set of wings too. Just totally outclassed that bum and the studio as usual cooked with the action scenes.

Zwei lucky Lily decided to take pity on him and save him cause Masatora was going to send his ass back to heaven 💀 She said Zwei never physically abused her but the emotional stuff is just as bad.

Pretty big tonal shift once Akutsu got Amane back home. We get some more of the traditional romcom gags. Sweet ending to the episode between Lilia and Akutsu though. I thought she was actually gonna be upset about him not letting Lily finish off her brother. Way to play with our expectations.

There’s still the older sister to deal with and I doubt she’ll take this well, but it’ll be interesting to see how it ends next week

Absolutely epic episode. While reading the manga this was one of the chapters I mostly looked forward to be animated.
Really liked how the dynamic movements at the fight were animated at some point. Reading the manga before, you'll really get to appreciate the studio's work and how they transpose the fight in animated form.
And yeah, Lily being the one calming down Akutsu shows once more, that he really cares about her. The dynamics of the two is one of the points, which really got me into the series.

So the anime most likely won't catch up to the upcoming arc.
I think episode 12 will most likely adapt chapter 32 - 34, probably chapter 35 - which seems
a nice round way to end the season, but things are just getting started. There is waaaaaaay more to come. Everything we saw with Zwei, Lilys treatment from the heaven's people etc. was more kind of a set-up, of an appetizer, what will happen in the future - which I really hope people can explore in a possible 2nd season.

The reveal of Zwei, and the real Lily as an estranged false Angel, Akutsu definitely is not taking this lightly of his humiliation on her. The Demon with black wings, this is who Akutsu really is, losing his sanity once he becomes a full-fledged demon, and Liz's time has finally come to put one of their plans to use. But a wing's worth of energy enough to pulverize them, there's no way to bring back his sanity, other than to restrain him and to make him expunge his wings, and Lily dealing with the last. A tit-for-tat exchange with Akutsu, and at least he lets Zwei off and thanks him for bringing his senses back.

Akutsu bringing Lily back to his apartment to change clothes, and Liliya wanted to help Lily, but could not help because of her restraints donned from Lily herself. In the midst, Liliya being able to see Akutsu's worst, and in the same way, led to Lily's place lost within the angel world, for good.

In a way, Akutsu isn't the demon here, he's the true angel to Lily who's been a demon towards him from the very start.

After what Zwei did in the previous episode, I really enjoyed seeing him get beat up, even though it turned out he wasn't 'so bad' with Lily. For me, even if he didn't physically harm her, the things he did in the previous episode were definitely worth holding a grudge for. But well, Lily is a being of light.

Now, about Akutsu, I loved seeing him in demon mode, especially because after all the times he's been 'humiliated' or we've seen him limit his power, it was spectacular to see him unleash such a great power for such a noble reason; it was like he was rebelling.

And besides, why not say it, I love it when characters show crazy faces like Akutsu's. I usually prefer it when they're aware, but I still love the expression. It's a strange fetish, I know, but I had to say it haha.

And finally, Lylia's thing kinda threw me off at first, but seeing that 'thank you' at the end made it clear that she really appreciates it haha.

With one episode remaining I doubt that this series will be able to tie up all of the loose ends especially since we haven't met Lily's sister yet and she may be seeking revenge for what happened to her brother. Plus there's Liz that may do something since Akutsu called her to tell her he found an angel, and there's also Lily that is still knocked out.

On that note I'm curious to see how this ends and if a 2nd season/cour will be announced.

NAHHHHH best episode so far man holy shit I was getting goosebumps just seeing Akutsu go rage mode tossing Zwei’s Lily avatars and him just WAILING on him like no tomorrow while Lily was just watching that shit that was so cold bro and Akutsu hitting Lily was something I was NOT expecting I though bro would hold back but nah this nigga is fucking deranged when he’s in rage mode, this episode was simply just amazing man😭😭😭😫

I still can’t believe bro hit Lily…that shit shocked me even though I shouldn’t be surprised since bros going crazily berserker mode but it still got me bc I thought bros love for her would hold him back but nahhhh he smacked THE SHIT outta her to deal with her brother😭😭😭😭

The animation went so hard too like I thought that this show wouldn’t have sakuga moments but ever since that scene with Lily running on the wall and the fight with Lilia, this show has just been putting out amazing quality animation when the time comes for it😩🔥🙌🏽🙌🏽🔥🔥

Lilia thanking Akustu was realy heartfelt I know Lilia hated seeing Lily put up with all the abuse she’s taken over the years I can tell that shit meant a lot to her that Akutsu broke the loop considering the person she wants to protect is a victim of constant emotional abuse☹️

It’s such a shame this show has a score of 6.43 like wtf is this bullshit? This shit is blasphemy ong man I swear ppl just watched episode 1 and thought it was gonna be some ecchi shit and gave it just 1 star and dropped the show🤦🏽‍♂️🙄

I wonder what Liz’s plan is what was she preparing to do? I guess we’ll see in the next episode, speaking of next episode this is gonna be the last episode of the season I’ll miss this shit mannnnnn😭😢😭😭


Lasttttt thing I wanna say is…………I WANTED TO SEE LILY UNDRESSED IN HER BRA MANNNNN🙄🙄 (yes I’m a degenerate and Im not ashamed of it🤣)

I couldn’t agree more. This show doesn’t have a clue what it wants to do. The season has been a rollercoaster ride of comedy, sol, drama, then as soon as the mc’s really start to develop feelings these insane writers have her protect the person who just abused and humiliated her in front of the person she loves and then wraps all that up so nicely by having him punch her in the face.. 🤦🏻‍♂️.. Really? I honestly enjoyed the last 3-4 episodes but you can’t have the male mc literally pimp slap her across the court then turn right around and have them be together.. they hadn’t even shared a kiss yet but their relationship is strong enough to survive him clocking her while she’s holding him begging him to stop?! Oh I’m sure they’ll make it work in some ridiculous way but for me it was honestly the first time I’ve ever rated any episode from any anime I’ve followed on here a 1 lol..

Now that was satisfying to watch. Akutsu went berserk and beat the shit out of him. Btw I think that wasn't even his full power as he only had wings on one side. So only like half of his strength maybe since Amane has sealed his power to half. He'd look cool af with twelve wings at full power. I do wonder what his true identity is though. Demon lord/prince? Or maybe fallen angel?

what a wonderful episode! that powerboost by Akutsu was nice! but he was out of control! i was expecting demon ally reinforcements would arrive to handle the situation but it was not needed and instead they made a wonderful drama about the hardships of Lily and Lili's avatar Lilia was thankful/grateful to Akutsu probably maybe because Lily found true love? is this might be similar to the situation of the parents of Dante & Vergil (DmC) ??? Demon and Angel fall in love with each other....hmmmm...

I'm glad her brother was put into his place. He was being so mean for no damn reason.

I wasn't expecting Liliya to say thank you to Akutso after all of that lol

This is such a weird show. It wasted too much time on romcom hijinks and it basically ran out of episodes. You can see deep down there's good elements to it but overall it's mediocre as a series.

I guess the anime did it's job because I'll transition to the manga. It's just unfortunate the anime teases you with the actual store. It reminds me of More Than a Married Couple, But Not Lovers. That was another anime that squandered it's potential and I switched to the manga to continue.

I'll not take, "brother is actually a nice person inside, but he has his harsh ways" well lol. I mean after whatever he did to Lily, that can't be just ignored by saying he had good intentions behind that.. even though he was hurting her.

Still, the way Akutsu overpowered them all of a sudden did seem rather out of place, despite being cool. I mean if he was this powerful he'd easily escaped whatever submissive spell Lily casted on him lol.

Anyways, this series suffered a lot with direction choices.
