I have to admit, Enchu is a bit of a strange kid but at least he has good intentions for studying.

Not bad for an episode that deals with more supernatural context and introducing a character that's different than some of the ones we've seen so far in the show.

Inchu seems to be just using Muhyo as the focus of his misfortune in a mix of envy and anger.

I guess from the preview and the previous episodes that the purpose to Nana stay in the story will be only fan service and to be the girl who scream. Lame.

This was a weak episode.

Enchu's motivation to be the villain was not good enough. Someone, who goes through heartbreak, is more likely to be compassionate than evil.

The spirits won't even touch Rouji and the girl, as if to buy time for Muhyo.

The train pointlessly moved around the sky, even when all the spirits were taken care of, only to go into the ground!

Yoichi telling Rouji to go to Muhyo took an unnecessarily long time, with very unconvincing arguments.

I kinda felt Enchu's back story, but he didn't have to react that way when Muhyo was made the executor. I understand that he wanted to be one for his mother but he didn't have to succumb to jealousy.

But that hell train Muhyo summoned was awesome, too bad those villagers wanted to ban him.

It was okay. I mean it wasn't boring at all, and there was some interesting concepts and potential story showcased here, but the execution of the backstory and the motives were rough.

Muhyo was awesome here tho so atleast that saves it some face.

Neat episode and got to see some backstories. The average execution has been problem from this show since the first ep but enjoying the character chemistry so far. The concept of magick has been most highlight and the creative thing of the show for me notably the hell train was awesome to watch!

It's kind underwhelming that Kamiyan is voicing Enchu a bonjin (ordinary executor) who doesn't stand a chance against our talented genius Muhyo!
At least Muhyo cares about his assistant Roji (jiro)...
4/5.

Roji was really awesome this episode! I hope he'll continue to grow throughout the show.

Here we have our big meeting with the main villain, and it's... not very interesting. This worked basically the same as every other encounter, and it doesn't seem like the fights will ever be more than pad until Muhyo summons some overwhelming force. I just wanted a classic brains off shounen from this show, but it doesn't even deliver on that front

I like how after Enchu watching from afar at the end of last episode this one starts off with "Hey, look at that guy over there."

Holy cow that episode went fast, I really don't get the peps that looks like they are struggling with this anime, but well, different tastes I guess.

Train to hell was interesting, has been some time since I saw a Demon Eye like that xD

I find it pretty difficult to decide which of those two terrible main characters is more insufferable...

Enchû is bad but he has a really harsh background :/
Muhyou's train to hell was really great to be honest, he's really powerful

I felt bad for Enchu with her mom and got dumped by his friends that knewing nothing about his feeling. In the end, when he fall down to the darkness it felt understandable. Muhyo reaction was not so good on this. His annoyance level suddenly increased. And Roji sudden hero tap made everything just goes strange into the extreme one. I even really liked to knewing Muhyo and Roji first met. Why Muhyo had so much trust with that low level member like him. And once again, every people were just a complete dull. I mean, there were another executor and judge. But their reaction were too useless slow like a snail and couldn't do much. Was that real? Or just making Muhyo characterization felt too centre for the show? Whatever. Lets just continued....

Weird how they have a rule where only one student can become an executor considering the growing scale of spirits. Also disappointing to see how a town full of magic law students and teachers are incapable of dealing with the floating hats with Muhyo having to save their asses. Glad that Rouji managed to do something.
