What exactly is Pandemonium?


She is one of the Lost Ones that appeared a thousand years ago and one of the Four Human Errors. Technically, Pandemonium is the name of the fog where she is sealed, that isn't her real name when she came from Japan.

rasterman7 said:
How does the Pure Concept actually work?


Pure Concepts basically work by making a conceptual phenomenon, they are attached to the soul of the Lost One. Basically something conceptual powers, however the downside to that is that it can make the person who uses it to start to get their soul and previous memories devoured while being attracted to the idea of the concept they have in them.

Where did that move Menou and the princess did against Pandemonium come from?


From the scriptures, that one is the strongest spell that Menou has, it is a church made of light that compresses the body and soul of everything that is inside of it. However due to Pandemonium's immortality what Menou did was to create a closed circuit between the Earthly Vein and the Heavenly Vein to be able to keep the spell indefinitely and seal Pandemonium in an improvised way (althought, obviously Menou didn't take into account Pandemonium being able to summon a monster the size of a continent).

And what is Human Error in this context?


A Human Error is a catasthrophe caused by a Lost One. It is basically the name given to them after they lost themselves in their Pure Concept.

Since Flare seems to have access to the Astral Archive, she must have some sort of authority over the concept of Fate, which allows her to ”neutralize” the consequences made by manipulating Time. Would it mean that the Concepts are not limited to otherworlders? If that’s the case, why discriminately kill them if even the Faust themselves could be as guilty?


Nah, she doesn't have authority over fate. I mean, the source of the Astral Veins are concepts and it flows in every corner of the planet, Pure Concepts are things only otherworlders can use, no one in that world can use concepts in the same way as Lost Ones. Also the reason to kill them is for them to not turn into Human Errors.

Oh, that made things a lot more clear. I'm still iffy about the spell but the rest does line up with previous episodes. Thank you so much :D

Connecting to Astral Archive is like four dimension being watching over three dimension world. Even after the 3d world was regressed, 4d being will just see it as the world was reorganized to match the state at some point in time.
Just like when someone said you can't actually un-boil a boiled egg. Even if you can revert coagulated protein in boiled egg to look like raw egg. but the process to "revert" it introduce more "chaos" or entropy thus making it not the same egg even though it may look exactly the same. Connecting to Astral Archive may just like keeping record of entropy of every atom in the world.
Whoa..

this is the kind of comment that shows that people still haven't been able to get over Mitsuki's death (aka the guy who ruined the anime even though he only appeared for about 10 minutes)

Pandemonium giving Akari the low down was actually pleasing. She's always smirk and spouting nonsense, I'm glad she got wiped.

Pandemonium is probably not the sort of loli you want to be giving head pats to.. lol

but she does seem to still have a little good in her. She showed concern about Momo getting poisoned in the episode before this one. Maybe because Momo showed real kindness to her, when she rescued her from the torture device.

I would still head pats her
and die in peace

I think its just a sarcasm,

she's clearly the one who poisoned momo yet she showed "concern" about her?

lol everything about pandemonium screams SUS
I mean she's been trying to break everyone the whole time,
fortunately menou and ashuna are pretty durable. its a B-movie where protagonists and monsters die

oh nice! pretty intense episode!
Pandæmonium told Akari there's a way to return back from Japan? or maybe that's just fabrication since Pandæmonium will do anything to break from that seal (partially fault by Akari's powers)

This is ridiculous! Only a pinky does this much damage and she's the weakest of the four!
I'm intrigued how Flare acquired such OP power. I doubt this will get season 2 though, so we'll likely never find out.

After our budding loli director has been onscreen for a whole episode I can't believe we're still getting this question. I mean, from an ethical standpoint there's the possibility that, like Mamon's mom, they won't use their Pure Concept and go crazy, but the answer to "why" is "everything Pandemonium has said or done."

I should note that the fact that Human Errors are a real thing and this is what Pandemonium's pinky finger is doing does not preclude the small possibility that a western style church in anime may be somewhat shady.

Weird, because his death is actually what ignited my interest into this anime^^ In a way, it kinda reminded me of Talentless Nana, where for the first episode I was about to give up already, thinking like:

"Oh look, yet another <No-power-but-can-negate-other-powers> wannabe hero - do I need to be reminded of A Certain Magical Index once again?"

and then, after a few mins

"... Oh. Okay, now I'm interested" :-D

Sometimes I feel like some people truly enjoy boring bogus normal stuff (and main characters), and get testy when an anime takes a shot at that boringness... literally^^

I cant put into words how much I love this show. This setting is just soo interesting. Something about the supposedly all mighty time powers beeing too weak to change fate *because someone actively prevents it* just gets me.

This ep was great again. Pandaemonium is actually creepy and not just cringy like many crazy anime characters.

Most importantly the Momo-Ashuna ship is about to set sail.

Seriously how is this rated below 7? The production quality is great! Are people really this salty about the generic male self insert getting killed off in ep1? Looking at the stats really makes it look like this is getting score bombed.

due to Akari keeps on rewinding the time for numerous times, they left cracks in space and time

one of em is on the fog's wall thats sealed pandemonium

its similar to when you use mods too much, you will eventually break the game, glitches and the likes popping up everywhere

TBH, I kinda like Pandemonium.

If she wasn't totally crazy, it feels like she could be a fun girl to hang around with, LOL.

___ ___ ___

So... apparently not only does the "time rewinds" breaks Human Error's seals slowly.

But somehow the Human Errors inside the seals are not affected by the "time rewinds". (as Pandemonium mentioned she could see/ sense the world being rewinded and still keeps her memories of it happening)

Interestingly... doesn't this just mean Menou could just "seal" Akari like Human Errors... cause her "time rewind" wouldn't work if she's sealed.

Also, the "Astral Archive"... so somehow Flare is that strong cause she can literally use "god's power"... and use it so she could kill Menou in all past futures that Akari tries to rewinds to...

I wonder if this time will be different as Akari affected the future differently and Pandemonium was able to escape the seal, even if only a tiny bit.

___ ___ ___

Which makes me think as Akari uses her power more and more, she'll end up unsealing all the other Human Errors and the combined might, might be able to defeat Flare and her "god power" to save Menou.

Tho it also means as this episode hints, Akari will lose all her past memories and go crazy like Pandemonium, LOL

Would she still end up as Shoujo-ai for Menou, or would she decide to rewind the world so much, it goes back to the beginning of time and destroys the entire world. (tho I think Akari can only rewind time back to when she was first summoned)

(not to mention if the other Human Errors are unseals (if they're not dead), would end up actually destroying the world...)

___ ___ ___

With how Pandemonium is, I am actually interested in seeing the other Human Errors.

Everything about Pandemonium is pretty unsettling, so I'll give her that.

I was about to be disappointed if they beat her that easily though. I'm glad this ass-pull big church attack didn't going according to keikaku.

Otherwise, looks like Flare has a bigger role than we've been led to expect. I have to wonder how much Menou is tied into that. At some point, Akari and Menou are going to have to start comparing notes. @_@

Is this a manga or a light novel? I'll have to look into that. This could be worth reading the source material.

Akari doesn't believe she'll become a human error, but overuse of her pure concept has already erroded he personality and made her a yandere for Menou. Very interesting I'll have to read the LN!

This episode was exciting, finally a true challenge for both Menou and Akari! Pandemonium indeed added something interesting to this series.
And it seems that Flare tried is again involved in all of this, next episode will be the epic ending of all this.

So, as Pendemonium said, there is a way to get back to Earth, to get back to Japan!? So, by doing that, does that mean they will get to keep their Pure Concept and use it there? Or does a God on Earth prevent the humans from using it? :ehh: I really want to know more about guidance/MA Energy on this series.

Also, that's what she said

Things took an interesting turn, even more plot revelations and this chibi horror is doing some cool stuff, it’s kinda amazing that what we’re seeing is just a fraction of her power, kinda like the shaggy meme lol, but then I gotta wonder what even the point to her escaping was. And it was kinda disappointing the squid monster was so short lived but now we got a freaky CGI centipede monster to deal with so that oughta be fun.

And once again I hate that it took me so long to finish this lol, I actually really like this show and I’m sad I only got one episode left now that I got in a groove of watching it.
