New opening sucked especially disliked how they reused shots from the first one but the ending was decent. Mami Kawada!

Lots of setting up in this but I'm fine with that.

Natsume burned that exorcist guy so bad at that start. Damn. New op is alright as I go through another "First OP" is better nostalgia. ED is good. i believe it was Mami Kawada singing and she makes autotune great.

Eh, the OP isn't as good as the first one. Interesting stuff going on story-wise though.

Good episode. I like the new opening, but I didn't like how they reused a lot of scenes from the first opening. Probably budget issues? Anyway great ending theme! Mami Kawada is awesome as always.

Oh man, totally. And the kid with glasses is totally Doman, lol.

This story has such an intricate universe; it's really interesting. I know I'm going to have to watch this again to get things I'm missing this time around.

The new OP and ED is not bad... although they repeated images on the new OP.

I wonder what the role of Suzu and Takiko girl on this point of the story...

Suzu is somehow related to Saotome somehow?


Suzu and Ryou are the same person. Her name is written as "Ryou" and but pronounced as "Suzu".

So Suzuka made an error by reading her name wrong and mistaking her for a guy from it. =p

Holy shit, Douman is still alive, and apparently more childish and unrestrained than before, not only that, but finally digging some secrets and names, Suzu would be the one involucred on Yakou Research such as the Raven Coat eh?

Oh God.....the Syndicate HAS big shots alright...

PS: The new OP sucked, the video was alright. The new ED was fine, same the video.

Next episode is titled Divine Fan (Amami's Divine General Name) so I can see that possibility. I don't want him to die though, I like that old man and he looks a father figure to Ootomo-sensei. :(

I don't think Takiko would just be added out of nowhere, there has got to be a reason for it in the future. Even Suzu is giving me the mysterious vibe.

Still, sad that we didn't get to see scarface in action previously :)

If I drive for you, you get your money. You tell me where we start, where we're going, where we're going afterwards. I give you five minutes when we get there. Anything happens in that five minutes and I'm yours. No matter what. Anything a minute on either side of that and you're on your own. I don't sit in while you're running it down. I don't carry a gun.

5/5

No, I am of the opposite opinion better the previous OP, the ED instead is fine, but also the first ending was cute!
One consideration that I do now, but applies to all series, the abbreviations should be less spoilerose, it's okay to show a renewal not to bore, but blurt out who is going to come in the future, kill a little imagination, a real shame! D:
Drawing down a bit, they should put a piece, if you are not keeping up as Nagi Asukara not, they might lose a bit of fans in this respect.
The scenarios are still good though.
Still too mysterious plot, I still can not follow the thread on certain topics.
For now I will give as voting 5/5 on trust!

Kagami is back! I missed him. He is totally badass.

Ohtomo is badass too. It was not that surprising that he was a General before he became a teacher. He always seemed strong.

Series is really picking up for me. So much plot things that are in need of figuring out. Looking forward to the next ep.

Interesting. So Ryou Saotome and Suzu Saotome are the same person. Then there's that guy with the red glasses who seems to know who Harutora is, and maybe his past as well? So many things going on, this series certainly doesn't disappoint. Just keeps getting better and better.

Anyways, new OP wasn't bad, but I prefer the old one. Same with the ED.

So disappointed with the new OP. To me, it really doesnt fit into the anime. Was even more disappointed with so many reused scenes from the 1st OP. Those scenes were created for the 1st OP so using them for the 2nd OP really puts them out of place, especially considering the different styles of the songs. Felt like they were too lazy to draw new scenes or was prevented due to budgeting. Such a huge disappointment compared to how good the 1st OP was.

Pretty interesting episode, looks like the twin horn syndicate and the agency is going to war soon.

Funnily enough, this whole time (until Harutora introduced her to everyone) I thought Suzu was a male since she's obsessed with little girls. Then right after realizing she's a female, they find out that the girl they thought was a male is actually a female. This has me really curious now to see what kind of role she's going to have in the series.

Edit: Also that kid in the back of the car with Suzu sounds an awful lot like Douman, and it's the same glasses. It would make sense if that's him, since he mentioned a disciple, and Suzu said she's a "disciple" at the end of episode 14.

Not just you. It definitely seems that way. The way he knew them and those red glasses seem to be big hints.

Some new and interesting characters show up in the aftermath of the battle. I feel like stuff got really serious in the second half of the episode, so new arc?. I don't really like the new op, much preferred the old one, but the new ed is ok i guess.

OP1>OP2 The first one was way more catchy.

I like the new ED though.

I wonder who that girl with the red hair really is. She's super suspicious.

Why did Jin-sensei hair turn white? I know it was from the magic he used by why?

Reiji's a bodyguard now. Let's se where this goes.

Also where's the confession?! I didn't forget about it!

Hmmm about the new OP and ED. They're not bad but tbh I preferred the old ones. They fit much more.

At first it looked like Harutora could perform the same spells as Jin. Even if he couldn't manage it I hope he will try it more.

I don't know what I should think about the girl with the red hair. She said she's a student but nobody knows her. Would be interesting to know something more about her.

Douman is alive as it seems (kid with the glasses?). I had to laugh when Suzu grabbed his head and pushed him back when he tryed to say something :D

So they also heard a lot about Othomo sensei and that he was one of the twelve divine generals. I really like his white hair :P

And what the hell is going on with Reji and this other guy Shaver? And now he's the bodyguard of Harutora, Natsume and the other? That will be interesting!

Tbh, these world building episodes would only make more sense when you actually put effort into explaining things in a broader sense, which unfortunately this series hasn't. So whatever, really.

Meh OP and ED. First ones were better.
