Damn, Yukari is no pushover. Even with the better equipment, she is still someone that hardly a match for Kanami.

I feel like her experience compared to Yume is much bigger than expected and she's someone to never take lightly in any situation. The god of evil speaking to her really triggered sense of uneasiness while it offered for a fusion. Honestly, this episode did feel a bit like a mid-series finale.

Mai and Sayaka's teamwork sure worked well against Yomi though. Nice to see Sayaka make that declaration though. Interesting to see Maki show some doubt on hearing Suzuka's words about Yume. The fight against Yukari though sure was interesting pitting the six of them against her. The fact that Yukari wasn't completely subsumed was interesting though. The revelation about Yukari reason for fusing with the Aradama though was interesting. Kanami being possessed momentarily by her mother though sure was strange but timely. Huh a really action packed episode that was full of interesting revelations. Wonder where the series will go from here.

Well that definitely felt like an ending to me. I mean...it's not...and they're even doing a damn clipshow next week...but it felt like one. The girls seemingly banded together to finally defeat Princess whatever her name was possessing Yukari and saved the day. So as I've been asking for three or four weeks now what the hell are we gonna do with 12 more episodes of this? Will the show suddenly shift genres, or will a new threat pop up out of the blue? Or is it that old chestnut of the enemy still isn't actually gone for good? Might it have something to do with all the noro that was stored over the last 20 years? I dunno, and we'll hafta wait two weeks to find out apparently, but I honestly would have been fine had the series just ended here with an epilogue thirteenth episode next week. And while I can't say for certain yet, I have a very strong feeling when this series finally does end in another three months I'm still gonna think it should have just ended here...but we'll see.

Decent episode with sub-par action. Yume is finally dead, she was a very annoying character. The girls did an okay job to defeat Yukari.

Right that being said, Wow I loved this episode, like really!? it just shows how awesome Kanami is, and with her mom too ??? WOW! Kanami you go girl!!!!! I don't mean to post a ship but Yukari seemed to have a 'crush' on Minato?? I ship it, lol ~ though have to admit, Kanami is exactly like her mom! haha :D :P the only question remains, is where this will go on after this, now that Yukari seems to have been defeated... what happens now??? o.O

Give me back my tears & emotion damn Studio, the last scene of Hiyori plus the background song seriously made me think she is going to be in time space for a long time. But I give my highest praise to Hiyori prepared to seal Aradama.

I just can’t stress enough how good the last Hiyori scene was, pretty good use of song there.

Anyway Kanami’s mother just so op lol, I really enjoyed this episode.

nice episode indeed and it feels like the end of series..
but after the evil god is defeated, what comes next? what kind of plot twist will come next? hopefully next story isn't about go to netherworld to defeat the evil and save yukari
at least it's good to see op character, hail minato..

at least the song at the end was good ...

meh dropped, as i said i would if Yume died, since there's not much i like in this anime anyway.
i'll probably come back if it's proven that she is alive and if the anime gets interesting...cause otherwise, i have too many animes i want to watch lmao

Yume is not dead, they would not do such fool thing as kill one of the best girls in the show when they have already 12 more episodes to go. Also the more they show her the more her merch`s will sale, so is financially impossible to the staff to do so.

Minato was doing batto giri to deflect, and inflicted damage by parry baiting strategy. Orochi main in nutshell

But, it woould've been quite easy to perceive the arc of the swing and allow cutting into a cut work because of its long arms. Otherwise if it were human, she would attack the tsuka or pull off the guard when at the optimum angle without directly hitting the opponent

Yukari too strong for those 2, I had a feeling that would be the case.

Ha take that Yukina, great job by Sayaka & Mai.

Ah so it was the princess after all, amazing by Kanami to figure out how to land an attack on her and even being out the old Yukari for a brief moment.

Wow that is quite the monster she turned into, even all 6 of them are having a really hard time.

Ok so that is what happened in the past.

Wow Midori's spirit took over Kanami and started kicking ass.

Hiyori may have just finished off the princess what that awesome technique.

Like mothers like daughters I guess you could say.

It seems that Minato's spirit was hiding inside Kanamin.
Basically, Kanamin was possessed for that moment.
Minato is stronger than Tagitsu-hime even though it was only a moment of battle.
With this monster gone, what's next? I am curious.

All right, so are the Aradama completly gone since they've defeated Origami Yukari, what will happen to the elite guards? Who will be their next enemy, an evil Toji organization? Are they going to be hailed as heroes after Hiyori did to Origami? So many questions that will be answered next 2 weeks.

By the way I miss Yume why do they need to kill her off?

The end of the 1st cour with the aradama annihilated as Origami Yukari finally goes down for good with the overall action that served as a buildup.

Expect another break here (sorta intermission) before heading into the 2nd cour.

damn that's ice cold they really did kill her not to mention none of them can have a proper burial (seeing as now it looks like the other eites going forward are gonna be on their side it'd be seriously messed up for her to be the only one gone )

thought it was a great semi finale how it shapes up for the rest is hard to see gonna be interested now that were finally hitting the 2nd cour soon.

At the last minutes of the episode, I thought that Hiyori will be swallowed to the netherworld together with Yukari, which makes it a 24 episodes following how the girls will save her. But it didn't happen.

Now I wonder how they'll spend the remaining episodes for.

Also, Yume will turn into Aradama... how sad T^T

This episode kinda felt dull. The fight with Yukari had non-existent stakes and the climax was rushed and had no emotional payoff. Seriously, it just feels as if Kanami and Hiyori only won through plot convenience instead of genuine fighting skill. The supporting characters made almost no contribution to this episodes. To be fair, the episode had some redeeming qualities: I liked how strong and brave Sayaka had become and how the series sets up Yukari to be some kind of tragic heroine when the truth behind her sealing of Princess Tagitsu comes out.

Wow it really felt like this is the end. But still, ain't that supposedly the final boss too weak? Hiyori isn't really that strong but she managed too win. Oh well.

And so the second cour is going back to zero with a new arc huh. Can't wait.

>Yume really died
>A girl dying in this type of anime
oh my, this is not the average "let's make an anime about cute girls fighting monsters"

I hope Kanami and Hiyori didn't cut their lifespan just as their mothers...
because having them dying in their 30's would be too sad for the heroes of the world




I think those are Suzuka and Yomi, they could try to continue Yukari's legacy.
While it's kind of sad to see Yukari dying before the ending, perhaps it was better than making her last for 12 episodes more.

Maki learned the truth for good.

I hope the second part is as good as this one

Yeah, it looked like the end for her.. but Kanami was able to save her in time.

Can't wait for the soundtrack. I want to hear the full version of the song used here.

It's not quite Houseki no Kuni but they're taking advantage of the CG for this so that's good, can't be easy to have so many characters moving on screen at once during a fight. Which was quite a damn good fight, they did good. Twas pretty awesome and a good finale.

Maybe a little dramatically underserved. Will be interesting to see where we'll go from here - I wouldn't be opposed to some light aradama hunting and sparring/tourney shenanigans. Comfy moe blobbing is fine too.

That's the issue with starting with a story arc that seems more like it'd be reserved for a few seasons in, how do you possibly escalate from here with 12 episodes left? I'm interested either way, the acton was pretty well animated considering they had 6 characters going against 1 at one point, that takes skill.

I'm kind of disappointed by Yukari herself. So you're telling me this Toji who is the latest in a long line of strong Toji just so easily let herself be manipulated by the self proclaimed 'god of evil' with barely an argument? That's the motivation for 20 years of a stranglehold on Japan? Seems pretty weak.

What I am interested in now that Tagitsu's gone is the Royal guard. They've all got Aradama in them, so presumably they've all got to go. Hell there should be a lot of arrests pending at the very least.

So Kanami's Limit break is her acting like her mom but her moves greatly surpasses Yukari Origami! but only for a short while maybe 30 seconds?
So Kanami & Hiyori now went to the Netherworlds!? but actually went to a different location holding hands!?

I hope Yume isn't dead, maybe she is sleeping or absorbed by great great grand coined aradama.

What will tell at next 11 episodes? Easy;

An onsen/beach episode, cleanup mission for leftover enemies, some aradama fragments are escaped to some of main characters' mind and body and they will fight each other to save friends, then Yukiko will steal Yume's and Origami Yukari's bodies, she will turn them into aradama possessed ultimate evil but cute bosses, if this is not enough; Yukina and her Sayaka-like army will take over the bad role to annoy main characters.

OK I will shut up!

Nope, Minato(Kanami's mom) actually possess her daughter body, or rather it is the 17 years old clone that Kanami meet in every dream.
