Belle, invited by Shelly to the castle’s ball, feels shy in her dress but dances in the grand hall after being asked by Kitty. Meanwhile, Gaff takes Adonis aside and informs him that, during the campaign against Tiziano, he defeated Adonis's father, the caretaker of the catacombs, following the divine decree.

Adonis challenges Gaff to a duel over his father's keepsake sword. Suddenly, someone appeared and attacks both of them. That person, who has lost his sanity and rages like the old Tiziano, moves menacingly towards Belle in the grand hall.

I have a feeling our Belle/Adonis ship has sailed. Minus Adonis, I don't think he will actually go with her now.

The WTF show of the season!
Needs more song and dance!
But still in my top ten for the season.

Still lost in the world itself, but that itself is what makes this series very interesting, as the type who wants to know more about these things. I think it would take a whole ep just to describe the whole world, which in itself, wouldn't be a good idea to publish as a first ep, but useful to slowly reveal overtime just like how Belle thought that Nidhoggs are similar to raven branches. I just wished she voiced her thoughts a bit more but that's a personal take, I think the pacing is great as is.

I felt that one huge stab and slash across Belle's arm. That must've been gruesome. That kind of wound would've made her gush blood like a fire hydrant.

Damn, what a brutal fight that was.
I was looking forward to a fun episode after the way the ball started.

I have ADD, ADHD & AUTISM, but this won't stop me. Let's keep having fun together.

Belle and the gang being invited to the ball by Sherry, the latter putting on a nice singing performance, while the former gets her dance together with Kitty the All. But when Adonis brandishes his sword against Gaff trying to resolve past grievances, Kir comes around being manipulated by a fiendish sword, something which is similar for Tiziano.

As the last duty before she can go journeying, her sword changes shape as the Divine Summons to take down Kir comes around being the Nidhogg around the soilst tree, which does eat away at their divinity.

But after all when is said and done, the journeying must still go on.

Another very good episode!

Do not let Belle's appearance fool you -- the Beauty is the Beast.

I liked the song and seeing her in the dress but still basically nothing explained. Like "the tree only looks at itself"? What in the hell is that supposed to mean? Also what's up with the sudden prophecy and then the glowing green? I swear the author just pulls stuff out of their you know what and doesn't explain it precisely because they don't even know.

The anime would've easily gotten a 9 or even 10 rating if the director put together a more coherent adaptation.

Yeah this might have been good if it made any sense whatsoever. 8 episodes and literally no plot, just random ass occurrences

Here comes the party pooper Kir.

Kevin Penkin OST did it again, his back must been hurt a lot carrying this Anime.

The characters aren't offensively terrible or anything. But I seriously struggle to care about anything.
"Babe let's fuck."
"Maybe later if you convince me."
"That dress it hot let's fuck."
"I'm taking a bath, but don't look (but actually you can fuck me now.)"
"Sorry babe I'm undead or something we can't fuck."

so I'm having a variety of feelings while not really understanding. I will not even ask questions, just say 4/5 this episode.

A very good episode. Another example like Eminence of Shadow where good use of background music elevates the entire show.

Belle looked pretty dressed up. Liked hearing Sherry sing.

So Kir turned to evil after all. I want to know the cause. Is it because his broken sword merged with Tiziano's or is it because of the powder turns them to evil regardless like Adonis was suspecting or is it really simply cause Kir gave into evil?

Interesting bits of info on the tree. It's only looking at itself but sending messege to someone/thing? Is it sending data to the old/other/og world where Belle is from?

Belle's aura change to green and her sword seemed to have powered up. I've been wondering but can it only cut evil or non living things?

Anyway Belle's journey is finally starting next episode. Wonder if Adonis will join or not.

I knew Kir was going to get his sword broken again lol. Still so yeah even though it seemed good at first it does turn you evil or whatever I guess. Honestly though still 8 episodes in and the only good thing about it is the music. The music alone is carrying this show. I'm still just as confused as episode 1

Lovely episode with both girls in beautiful dresses but a corrupted idiot went and destroyed their festivities.

The bunny who stalked Belle is helping her, even if he's somewhat of an assassin for her.

This fallen Kir, scarred Belle's skin!!?
Even tried killing Sherry!? 😤😤😤

Kir got what he deserved, a fulfilled life fighting for his reason for life. lol?

After that...

Belle is lonely, and even gave Adonis permission to sleep with her because of her loneliness...
Belle wants to give birth to him...? Is the subs SUS?

Adonis having problems because he is the cause of the corruption.

This is finally going somewhere, like the rest of the episodes.

P.S. Sherry's cries were amazing.

Belle becomes cool and pretty this episode.

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.
