I never paid Autor much mind prior to this episode. I always thought of him as just a filler backround character for when they were in the library. I don't like his attitude but it looks like Fakir will needs his help regardless.

I didn't think the mysterious individual from a few episodes back would turn out to be a whole scheming group of people.

This is the episode where things really start getting good.

Fakir smiling like that in the dream was freaky. He almost hurt that bat thingy. What a meanie D:

en pointe looks pretty painful. I wonder how the ballerinas do it.

I never thought that Autor would be an important character the first time I watched the anime either. But when I was re-watching it, I noticed how much he is around. Like in the Ghost Knight episode, he was right behind Fakir when Ahiru gave him the script and in episode 26, he was at the flower stand with Raetsel and Fakir. Autor is a creepy stalker guy. "You must be completely obedient to all my orders" "Come to my house tomorrow. I'll be waiting, Fakir-kun." It sounds like he's going to rape him or something lol

I liked the beginning of the episode. It was nice seeing them all dancing together. Plus, I danced to the Music of the Dance of the Mirlitons/Reed-Flutes myself. :3 So I enjoyed hearing it again...

I began noticing Autor in the ghost knight episode for the first time, but merely because I thought he had a hard time with Uzura and Ahiru always rampaging around in the library. Wouldn't have thought he'd have a role that important...o.O

I'm dancing en pointe myself. =) It can be painful at times, but with enough practice, you get used to it and it hurts less and less. You just need a lot of strength and balance (which I sometimes lack, I'm afraid v.v) Since the shoes are flattened at the end where the toes are, it's not as impossible as it looks like though. ;) You see, it's not really mysterious. xD
But it's important to keep your legs tense (don't know if that's the right word o.o) at all times, or you risk hurting yourself.

I called it, I knew Autor would have an important role. And that secret organization that takes out the endings of stories is quite mysterious and interesting. Things are getting better.

Ironic that the "useless knight" is Ahiru and Mytho's only hope now.

Definitely a surprising episode. I was a bit taken aback by it seeming to come out of nowhere, but it's an interesting development.

-Celestial-'s and my guess were right on the money, the library guy has an important role to play!

I used to dance en pointe but I stopped like 2 years ago. I keep up with some of my soft shoes stuff though. This episode made me dig out my point shoes and practice again. I need new ones though. These are too small.

I had an inkling that Autor was going to play a bigger role, but totally didn't expect a random secret society to make an entrance.

And I totally aw'd at Ahiru holding Fakir. <3

Actually I think these "secret society" guys have been around for a while. I've seen shadows Fakir and, maybe, Ahiru for several episodes now so it's definitely been foreshadowed that something was up.

A very dramatic episode. So this Aotoa guy knows about the power of Drosselmeyer. I wonder how. Also what is this creepy secret organization thing? Hmm the story is growing deeper!

I forget where I heard this but can't you also put cotton balls in your toe shoes to make it hurt less? Or is that something ballerinas don't do?
