Meh, it's mostly recap this episode with footage from the first few episodes.

Falangies' presence is quite welcoming though...
Looking forward to the next episode. Also Silvermask's face.....


One Light is a nice ED theme though.

Pretty neat for a recap, including the plot points and important scenes from the past 13 episodes. New ED by Kalafina is great too!

Looks like we'll have one more character joining team Arslan sometime soon.

I came only for Kalafina's new song. It was okay i guess. Good to see Arslan's gang are growing in numbers! :D

New ED is nice, though a far cry from the previous one. Still way better than both UBW endings.

Never really missed out a lot so I didn't pay much attention to the recap parts of the latest episodes. New character is a prince; interesting. ED is decent.

Only watched the last part of the recap for the new ED and the preview to next week's episode. I really liked the last ED, but the new one is pretty good.

I've heard Kalafina OPs/EDs from most of the Fate series and a few other shows, but I honestly couldn't really get into any of them - though I liked Magia from Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica.

I've yet to hear this ED though.

Kara no kyoukai has kalafina at it's best. They where initially formed for kara no kyoukai so all the songs are pretty original and awesome.

Anime is good, fucking deal with it.

A standard recap with nothing new except an ed and next episode preview... some of the scenes they choose to show and skip were bad choices as well; as far as recaps go this was a pretty shitty one.

New ED is a bit of a disappointment, doesn't match the quality of the visuals or song of the previous one. Hopefully the next OP is an improvement over the old one, I'm terrified to think of what something worse than that UVERworld song would sound like.

As for the recap, 5/10, it did what it needed to do but that doesn't make it any more entertaining to watch. Having that Kekkai Sensen recap awhile back made this one seem worse in comparison, since that recap actually had a unique framing device.

Even though this ED is not bad the first one was 10x better.

Waited a week for a new episode, got a recap. I am a fan of Kalafina though, and I'm happy about the new ending. I love Eir Aoi too, and I think both songs are great.

I'm looking forward to the new character, and I hope that the opening is good.

Just a recap, at least it's not as bad as Shingeki no Kyojin having multiple recaps and even recaping the same old shit from the first few minutes.

Recaps are recaps, not much else to say really.

It was alright, I guess.

But I can't really remember this scene in the middle of the episode (about 13:30). Where Hermes reveals his identity to Andragoras in the dungeons in the Royal Capital of Ecbatana? When was that shown in the series, which episode?

@Sofie_B98 The scene was in episode 8, after the ED. They put it beetwen the ED and the preview, so if you were skipping EDs you've probably missed the scene.

Why do they keep making this recaps episodes?
I know, I know they (the persons behind every OVA's ever made) have to "milk" the "cow" while they can, but c'mon! Some recaps are useless, like this one. If your going to waste your & time with recaps at least throw in a bone or two (a few bits of new material, not much, just enough to keep our interest alive).
Me every time I hear the word "reparations": 🤣🤣🤣
It’s time to ditch the text file.
