Damn it, negative feelings in this show really can really a Reflector mad.

Tbh, Shino has became a legit threat in this show with the way she operates her intentions. Out of all the characters, she just does what she wants and how she wants to, regardless what the risks are.

GOSH DARN ABOUT TIME the plot made a significant move right in the exact end of the 1st half.

Shino is the true epitome of evil Reflectors, and I can understand why Masochist Uta still stood by her side, but Niina, you've gotta change your sense of direction to side with Hiori and the others. You're absentmindedly blinded by the feelings of adoration...but there's no changing her anymore, only except if the innocent Hiori can change her from the inside out to get those feelings across against the passive good and the aggressive evil.

Shino does have a point to her evil antagonist role, so that at least keeps the plot "interesting" for the Reflectors to fight back with all their feelings.

What a slog to finally finish the 1st half of this snoozefest, but at least this is one remarkable episode out of the 12 episodes. Gonna suffer for the 2nd half for another 3 months more.

Not a bad climax, hoping for more fights in the next cour.

She switched sides more or less anyway, plus someone is needed to replace Momo, it is not known if she will be able to fight after this.

Terribly episode, Yuri is useless, she can just summon Hinako to kill Shino right now,but no, she choose to stay and say i don't understand anything a real regress to her character from the game. About Shino being a main enemy of entire 24 ep is really bad idea, she is just some whinny girl with a big ego and only thing she deserved and i hope she will get, is death by the hands of either sephira or Hinako, it will be good if she just dies next ep and the sephira took they rightful place as main villains. Really unsatisfied by the end of first half of season, only good parts were Miyako and Niina. 3/10
Talking about second half i hope that Yuri returns to AASA and Hinako and co finally makes they move,since current reflectors are so weak and Momo in comatose state now,the only who can train them is game reflectors - Hinako or Mao.We need many answers about what happened to Hinako,what is AASA, why is there still sephiras.

Its now episode 12 and its really good.. feelings doesnt have a form, no one can touch them, yet fully understand all of them.. but nevertheless, we strive to understand them, and even protect them.. feelings are like a seed, we dont fully know our own feelings, only until we would survive the test of time to see it bloom into the flower it will become.. as the episode this time talks more about the feelings of love for each other, that they care so much, that it ended up making them suffer in a way.. well, i guess nina will probably now join them on the next battle.. as they will now join forces to save mio from everything.. anyways, i rate the episode a 9.5 of 10, 9.5 for both story and art.. :)

Woah! What a way to end the first half.
I think is the best episode aired in this last week of the season.
I feel that a very good climax was achieved and this work has taken an important step. This anime has given us the best antagonist of this season, since her speech said several things that I felt correct, obviously her speech does not make her acting correct, however it makes it coherent and that leaves me with a feeling of satisfaction to achieve her triumph, so to speak.
Interesting things should be noted, like the turn of Nina, that the group of protagonists have left her in the church, just as I think they are going to go for her, since between the two they could only take Momo, I suppose. I hope good episodes in the second half.

Batteru!

I was expecting the first half of this series to end with an apocalypse but I guess the world is still ''safe'' for now.
New characters should join the cast starting from the next episode, I hope they will make up for the possible future lack of Momo's action.

Decent episode, though this anime is a bit of a slow burn I hope the second half has better pacing as its starting to get to me now. Its like they wrote a plot, were given 24 episodes but then realized that they didn't have as much plot to fill it so they stretch it which just leads to it dragging out.

I think my favorite character at this point might be Niina followed by Momo not that I don't like Ruka or Hiori they're just okay at best.
I'm a little worried how this all ties with the game we know Yuzu and Lime are involved as well as Saiki Yuri but where is Hinako?
This might as well be its own thing with some cameo's...
I am looking forward to the second half and I really hope they're gonna tell us what's really going on, I like that they give us drive to watch the next ep
but whether this is building up to something interesting or mediocre remains to be seen.

Lots of seiyuu from Asterisk in here, but it’s extremely painful to see Izawa as Shino, from the last episode it’s clear that she’s the main antagonist.

what was that?

Like, her onee-chan was there in a comatose state;

Then she suddenly stops the loli.

When we think onee-chan would help she is suddenly kissed by the loli, and now onee-chan has an outfit similar to loli.

Then they just leave like that.

That was "what the fuck?" lol

--

These last episodes were kinda of... >.<

I was also getting tired of the same story "protect feelings" and etc etc

Let´s see how will it go, the 2nd half.

Blue Reflection Ray review. A fascinating show. The surface story is a well designed and plotted magical girl show where the protagonists try to protect other girls' negative feelings from being "consumed" by the antagonists for their own use.

But the show subverts anime tropes to create a sense of foreboding, and way the show plays with the characters' perception of reality makes the viewer question everything they see. The theme of hundreds of girls and women living with social anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome and other mental health problems is a dark commentary on the mores and structures in modern society.

An excellent Anime that is worth bing watching. It has 24 Episodes. + 24 OVA Mini Chibi Episodes all worth watching.

Storyline: 9/10
Art style: 10/10
Music: 9/10
Fight scenes: 9/10
Overall Enjoyment: 9/10

This is one of the best Magical Girl Anime and Video games I have ever watched and played. Some of the characters in the franchise. Hiori Hirahara, Mio Hirahara, Yuzu & Lime Shijō Yuzuki, Shijō Raimu, Ruka Hanari, Shino Mizusaki, Uta Kamogawa, Nina Yamada, Saiki Yuri, Yukiko Takaoka. Gust Koei Tecmo DMM Pictures Games and Anime. Reflector battles.Blue Reflection Ray is a really good Anime. You should watch it if you haven't yet. The music is beautiful, characters are lovable, gameplay is really good. Also the storyline is very enjoyable. I recommend em to everyone who is either into Anime. Or just wants a fun Magical Girl Anime to watch. The transformations are similar to Sailor Moon and Madoka Magica in a way. Some of the art style reminds me of Yuki Yuna is a Hero. Like the color schemes in some scenarios. Ruka Hanari looks similar to Sailor Mars Rei Heino in a way. This has one of the best Anime OST BGM soundtracks I have ever heard hands down. If you have not played Blue Reflection, Tie/Second or even watched the Blue Reflection Ray Anime. Than your missing out. This series is quite enjoyable and lovable. Blue Reflection Ray that takes place between the first and second game that is a must watch. Really enjoyed it a lot. Blue Reflection Sword other the girl who dances in illusions. Blue Reflection Tie.

I love Mel Kishida's art style. It's very pretty. The Anime as a whole is perfect. It may not be the cream of the crop, but it's still really fun. And really enjoyable.
