Ohh so Emi is finally changing how she sees Maou. Thanks Suzuno.
I think she changed her opinion of him back in episode 5, she just never had any reason to be verbal about it until now

I don't think that Emi has changed her position yet. Maou hasn't given Emi a reason to kill him, and being a "hero", revenge isn't in Emi's playbook. Whereas the Church has given Emi a reason to begin to doubt what she has been told, both in five and when she was initially attacked outside the convenience store (that her sacred magic was cancelled told her that "her" side was at it again).

Emi is in a wait and see mode. She isn't going to move until she knows she can move with justice.

I never expected the plot to get so intense, and it doesn't feel silly at all.
I guess this is the start of the oh-so-epic finale that needs to rack up sales of the BDs, I'm looking forward to it.

THANKYOUUUUU CHIHO FOR STANDING UP FOR MAOU.
Emilia just annoyed me with her unrealistic crap,,,god, and then she say's what's got to be the worst justification ever..."this is the path I must tread. Because I'm a hero"
Then Suzuno asks, "So you don't intend to kill the Dark Lord?"
Emi answers "not just yet"
wtf?
Didn't you just say... ugh,, I'm just going to stop trying to make sense of her words...
btw does anyone know if Maou really subconsciously used magic to attract customers that one time? Or was Suzuno just interpreting things wrongly...
Also, Suzono experienced firsthand that sometimes sacrifices have to be made, like Takuan_Soho said up there^^^ Emilia fought on the front lines, as the HERO, but while she took all the credit, there were others who did the dirty work, like Suzono,
And Emilia's oblivious to it all, which we can't blame her for, but imagine how much Suzuno is hurting when Emilia says those things,,, she's basically saying everything Suzuno did was unnecessary,
Anyways, I'm wondering how all this will be resolved,,, hope they leave it open-ended so there's a possibility for a second season ~~2 more episodes to go, I'm going to wait for episode 13 to get out, so I can watch both of them back to back,,,,

Ugh... for some reason I found Chiho to be annoying in this episode.
I don't blame her though for trying to defend Maou since the current Maou is the only one she knows. But I hated how she didn't try to understand Suzuno's point of view and why she has to take that 'certain' action against him. Full telling her off that she doesn't understand. What does Chiho know. She doesn't understand what Suzuno and Ente Isla went through because of Maou.
Although there is the debate that technically Maou was just oblivious and didn't understand any better, but we don't know if that is true or not. He could really just have been evil at the time.

All comes down to initial impressions. When they first showed Chiho everyone assumed she was only going to be the "big breasted loli", and they will keep that impression regardless of how she develops as a character.


That's a really good point. I've also noticed that people say she's annoying, but never explain why.

alright then ill explain

Shes annoying cause shes a 1 track character that only every talks about maou, she doesnt change up anything and also has no chemistry with any character, jokes with her are rarely if ever funny, and she just generally brings the show down from how much of a waste of space she is, her cutsy bullshit may get to the hearts of those that prefer cutesy imagery to actual writing but to people that actually look for what the character brings to the table she only subtracts from the overall quality. Suzuno for example has been in the show for half the time chi has and already she has way more personality, development, and chemistry with all the characters than chi has. And even with characters like lucifer that pretty much dont have a relationship with anyone but maou and ashiya he still is leagues better than her cause things he does is actually funny and his personality is not as obvious from his first appearance.

Also her voice is kind of aggravating but thats the least of the characters problems. So there happy? If anything id argue the people who like the character cant come up with reasons why without mentioning cuteness.

She's also the only character in the show so far who we know is exactly whom she appears to be: a high school girl who has a crush/has fallen in love with her good looking immediate supervisor who is a couple of years older, kind to her, and enjoys hanging out with her. As far as the citizens of this world go, she's our only representative and voice. I prefer Emi as the love interest, but I think Chiho has a big role to play as well.

So we see a bit more into Suzuno's past ... wow, an executioner for the church huh? Sounds pretty rough ... and she gets into an argument with Chiho about having to kill Maou. Obviously they'd feel pretty differently, but I like how Emi stood for her beliefs about not going about bringing peace the way Suzuno wants to. Good for her! :P
So that sketchy manager IS an angel after all ... and he wants to take Emilia's powers back?! :O This show continues to surprise me with some unexpected twists ... like Olba waking up! I'd pretty much forgotten about him ... dun dun dun! Looks like we're gonna get the final battle soon :D

Oh, everything's kicking into high gear now. Things have come to a head with Suzuno Kamazuki a.k.a. Crestia Bell and Chiho Sasaki's competing philosophies on how to deal with the Dark Lord of Ente Isla.

For Crestia's part, she's become too jaded by her bloody past to even try to believe in change, unlike Emilia who as befitting of a hero would prefer a more moderate approach - they are in fact the opposite faces of the human effort to defeat the demons in Ente Isla. One is a hero who embodied the light that inspired and unified the humans, the other an assassin representing the shadow that destroyed dissidents who would otherwise splinter the human effort to prevail.

As for "James", I'd like to know exactly which side he was on during the war in Ente Isla, and whether he has any connection to the fallen angel and demon general Lucifer, who has similarly colored eyes and abilities. Even Olba has a part in all this, he isn't a traitor just for kicks.

tl;dr We'll see.

from what ive seen concerning the "dark lord is a massacring monster" discussion. (and i do keep in mind that young peasant girl in the 1st episode who was horribly slaughtered by that imp demon) Non of the factions are clean. They're all just currupt leaders with armies, assassins and elites in different garb and beliefs, committing atrocities or letting them be committed. Just that the demons had no pretenses while the others did in one form or another.

They're just showing their truer colors now that the "obvious" enemy is out of the way.

Suzu had a close personal look at this. realizing that her bosses are no different from the very men she assassinates and many of their decisions too cause just as much thoughtless sacrifice and death.

Great episode! Lots of things happened. I'm glad Chiho stood up Maou. I hope Suzuno didn't erase Chiho's memories. I'm going to lose my shit if she did that. Maou to the rescue? Where are they headed? The hospital? Cueball is there and so is Ashiya. Hope Ashiya gets well before the upcoming battle that is to come. Looks like James is out to kill Emi. Suzuno is going to help in the killing? She appears conflicted.

So, random question, but what happened to the apartment owner's stuff? Their is now noone at the place now, or did they sell it all, or is it just a trusted place and nobody will steal? Anyways, me thinks that Maou should have saved up some of his power, going to fight an angel and some crazy Suzuno with just a broom seems difficult. Although, that angel seems to have a very crappy special power, since it nullifies holy magic, not sure how good that will fair against a demon. Also, poor Ashiya, probably gonna have to fight his way out of the hospital with something 10 times worse than food poisoning.

That's not really what the show is about, though.

Gah, so much drama in this episode. Both parties have a really good point.

Looks like Sadao is about to go all Maou in the next episode. And poor Ashiya, still sick from all that Udon. I hope he gets some serious screentime before the season ends.

I hope Suzuno didn't erase Chiho's memory though.... That would suck.
So, Suzuno was an inquisitor or something... The one who gets her hands dirty... I see her point though.
And that SFC guy and the mysterious guy are the same (that was predictable).
I wonder what's gonna happen next. The ending of the episode was a total mess; Suzuno is flying, we doen't know what happenned to Emi or Chiho, Olba wakes up.... Such mess.
Well, bring on the next one!!

If Lucifer was treated like that in their world then I am not surprised anymore he rebelled against Maou :o
