----------------------------------------
This is another great episode of Liberta x Felicita in the following,

Liberta sure did a nice job of making the landing is nice for Felicita but alas he cold not handle it in the spoiler
he pushes her away of all things. Still I think it was a nice dangerous accident that show more of them being close together than needed.

About the hast giving to the kid, I find that part in the spoiler
was MOE but also a event to get Liberta x Felicita closer. This is whom with her blush after the event.

Come my favorite part of Liberta in the following,

Liberta’s power revealing along with how he got find out in the spoiler
it was sad to see. Him being shackled like that, child slavery being shown and to be hated/disgusted with. Only to rejoice indeed when savior come around to save those kids. As such I am very happy of Liberta’s rescues and disgusted by his treatment by PIG humans to look out for their self interest. It quite piggy to make the innocent suffer indeed. However what really comes of interest is the depiction of making his deal in the spoiler
that I would best assume to be the FOOL himself under that mask hence why any mask of similar appearance would evoke memories.

About thee end, from the looks of the spoiler
Liberta is trying to resolve his internal conflicts while shit goes down with Nova as he confronts him.

About after credits, hilarious joking of Mother/Dante/Jolly on Felicita in the spoiler
Shiny forehead emotional power? Well there is something with bald-heads but I won’t go into it. Just that the appreciation for it was hilarious in this episode when Felicita pears into the heart of Dante.

Another fun episode that fortifies Liberta x Felicita which seems to be heading that way and all points it in this episode.

Oh look, another back story episode.

Well, at least it's dealing with Libertá this time around and is executed better than the previous two.

Poor Libertá though..the things he had to go through in the past.

Mainly about Liberta having alone time with the girl?

Because he was thinking about what he thinks he forgot something (apparently when he was young), they fell on the way, and ended up helping with the sell. And one of the guests were their destination.

Mask has important meaning to Liberta. He got scolded, and decided to become stronger to regain memory. She also saw a vision about his past.

Seems like that masked guy, the guy who scolded him, saved young Liberta from getting treated badly through experiment. That's when his power awake. Kotodama (creates fire), so when Liberta saw fire on the building with other members, he was shocked. His power was sealed by Arcana card, and he needs to be stronger to control his power. He asked her for reading his mind, but she refused. He went to ask that guy personally. Only thing he can do is to become stronger.

Dante got punished by getting heart read by the girl. lol @ almost being enka mood.

Next ep. mainly on Yonaga-san's character?

I don't know, am I the only one who hoped the series will turn out to be better? More action and less this boring crap, like eating, wanting to become stronger, but not doing a shit about it... Considering that there will be only 12eps, I must say - the pace is too slow. Shoujo is shoujo, but this kind of useless story turns (like working at shop or eating pizza's) is kinda annoying.
Though I liked the part of Liberta's childhood, that was what saved this episode.

I didn't mind it being a back story of Liberta. Considering he is growing to be my favourite out of the whole series, any other character & I probably would of been 'Meh' about the whole thing. Though I am starting to want this to go forward towards the Tournament & also wanting to see Liberta gain full control of his powers..

Holy smokes. Liberta is the OP character in this anime.
His powers are just like Eucliwood from Kore Wa Zombie Desu Ka?

Those Italian food look so appetizing.
I think it starts to get better.

I'm glad that this episode focused more on character development and history than the last two. I really enjoyed the dynamics between Dante and Liberta and learning about the past between the two. So did Dante decide to take Liberta in because of his arcana powers?

I don't really mind that the action has taken a backseat since episode 1 but I hope we get a more fleshed out arc soon rather than the more episodic arcs we've been getting so far.

Now that we've learned more about the many quirks and powers of the cast hopefully they all come together soon in preparation for the tournament. I'm looking forward to the next episode though, which seems to be a Nova-centric one!

This ep was so nice! I really wanted to know about Liberta past since I watched 3rd episode. But it was sad and I'm a little sorry for him.
Anyway, I like paring Liberta x Felicita, so I don't mind watching their together in this 4th ep

Although I like Liberta, I wanted the anime to center more around Nova. I know their all important, but I want more Nova, which it seems I will get next episode : )

I'll happily be looking forward to it.
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

I think Liberta and Felicita would make the best couple as well. They seem to get along the best and Felicita always seems to want to hang out with Liberta more so than the other characters (including Nova who is her childhood friend).

I'm pretty sure we needed to get Liberta's backstory first before they start the real deal with training and what not. Now Liberta has more motives for training and becoming stronger other then to just save the princess.

Am I the only one who's enjoying this? The story isn't the best and could be written a LOT better, but I still think it's entertaining. At least now Liberta won't be fighting just to become stronger for the Felicita, but for himself, too.

This was better then the last two episodes. 4/5

Brave yourself, drops are coming.

This episode was boring, more interesting than the past two but still boring. I have to admit that the backstory for libertá was interesting but it doesn't save the rest of the episode. I will give Arcana Famiglia its last chance with episode 5.

I have to say that it looks like all the focus is on Liberta. It may just be that they're slowly showing the past of all the characters, but it's been Liberta who's always with her.

Liberta's power sounds amazingly strong though.

I like the backstory, but considering what happened in the previous episodes, this is pretty random. This episode would have been good if it had been placed somewhere else. It belongs in the series, just not as episode 4.

I think I understand the Fool power.
The Fool Arcana is always the closest Arcana to the Major Arcana of The World.
The Fool Arcana always has infinite powers. Even tho it is The Fool, it is bound to nothing. So it’s practically a free Arcana.

Practically The Fool/World is on first place, follow by Love Arcana, and then Magician Arcana, and then Death and so on.

GRR!! All about Libertá again, if it was a 25 episode thing I could UNDERSTAND how slow this is going and introducing all the characters and there stories, but I am really annoyed since I bet they'll make the duel thing shoved into the last two episodes, and they NEED to stop making it so obvious about Libertá and nova being the main men for the female lead, as well she needs to start talking more!! All random I know x_x;

I enjoyed this episode purely cause I watch this show for Liberta. I can understand the frustration of all the other fans who might be interested for someone else who I doubt will get their deserved screen time. I mean a 12 episodes anime and after 4 episodes barely anything has occurred. With the amount of episodes their working with I don't understand why they bother with the 'slice of life' format they seem to be doing with this show. I mean, clearly all the characters have back stories and such, so why bother with all the "This is what they do in their daily lives" part?

I still like the show - I don't mind back stories. I sort of doubt the 'tournament' is gonna actually be a part of this show (maybe the final episode).

I enjoyed this episode more than prior ones since it gave Liberta's back story and told of how he and Dante met, however, the pace of this anime still worries me if it is to be a one season anime. Since the tournament seems like something that should encompass a great portion of the show and we still haven't seen even the beginnings of it. I will continue to watch it though.
