I kinda liked the drama of this episode. Otherwise, lol @ this:


Oh I see that guy with the hat and black clothes back. He seems to have a scythe with him as well this time ;o Oh, it's that Sarue guy from SFC. I'm not surprised though.

Looks like shit got real this episode.

Really poor Ashiya. Wow@gore. She has such a dark & bloody past. Suzuno had a point: he may change as people change and power may make him blind.

It was a drama-driven episode.

Actually I like her just fine, she is exactly as she should be. Emilia fought on the front lines, leading the humans against the demons, but behind the front lines you would have had the humans who would have sold their fellows humans out for their personal gain, Shizuno took care of those people. She was the shadow to Emilia's light.

Of course now that the greatest threat has been removed, the other threats are rising to the surface, the factions in the Church can now fight among themselves. Shizuno who had moral certainty for so long would be loathed to lose it. Having invested so much of herself into the cause, having bloodied her hands so much to support the Church during the war, it would be extremely difficult for her to let go of her faith. To let it go would be to acknowledge that what she did previously could have been evil, that she was actually merely a pawn instead of the independent agent she thought she was. Tough thing to let go without it threatening one's grasp on reality.

Otherwise, very good episode, great development as we approach the conclusion of this season. Pity we can't see Emi finally have full power (though I think that is coming in the last episode) and as such a relatively weak fight, but that I believe will lead up to the conclusion as well. Looking forward to it.

Things really ramped up this episode, good on Chi-chan calling out Suzuno on her lack of resolve whether to go through with her plan even if she doesn't want to kill people. Though Maou is good now that doesn't erase what he did in Ente Isla. However, this is anime and not something like Django Unchained where the bounties ran away and became "good people" similar to Maou so I find it highly unlikely Maou will die by the end. It is a light hearted comedy after all

I thought Olba was crushed by Maou at the last battle but I guess he just fell down? It wasn't really clear then if he died or not until now

Looks like shits about to go down again. This episode made me like Suzuno even more tbh. It was nice to see her finally speaking out like that and learn more about what she's gone through. I can totally understand where her reasons are coming from too. And I am starting to find Chii-chan a little annoying.

Lmao at that little girly shriek from Maou when Chii-chan's mom called him.

She's not quiet to the point of dislike yet for me but it feels like she goes into that mode cuz she's trying to justify the way she has lived her life up till now and when Emi was refusing to make sacrifices for peace it directly denied the way she had lived her life with the inquisition, the constant killing for so call peace,and that being said no matter how Suzuno may try to justify her past with the church being corrupt it isn't going to work out as pretty as she may have hoped.

Yeah, I'm hoping that's the case too. Hard to tell what happened there. (-_-)

By far the most interesting episode in this series, looking forward to see where it goes the next episode.

Wow things are sure moving along. Nice learning more about Suzuno's background. I'm sure somewhere deep down she realizes that Maou isn't as horrible as she thinks she is, but when talking to someone like Chiho who keeps praising him, Suzuno isn't going to back down. But good going Emi, telling both of them to calm down :) She's the only one seeing both sides of the picture.

Oh and good going too, Lucifer, I was thinking of the same thing, that if Ashiya is that incredibly sick, he should go to the hospital ><

I dislike how Crestia Bell tries to justify her actions, TBT she killed fellow humans (which might not have been goody goody, but didn't deserve death just because they were not dog's of the church) for the net gain of the church, but she has make herself believe it was for the greater good. Someone made the analogy (taken from Naruto's Sarutobi/Danzo) that she was the shadow that let Emilia's light thrive, but both were mere power grabs, not advancing the cause of good one inch, as she herself realizes when she says it was the Hero (who no longer was part of the church) who defeated the Dark Lord (Orba just played along to later on kill Emilia too as we now know). Sadly I can see many people attempt to justify their actions just like her in real life.

Some long-awaited drama in this episode and what a cliffhanger! We get to see Suzuno's agenda and her dark background as an assassin. The church people are a shady bunch, I never really trusted them to begin with. Poor Ashiya sounds like he's about to die - he should have stop being so stubborn and have gone to the hospital five episodes ago. I think it's possible to assume that Suzuno poisoned the food they ate, and getting rid of the dark lord's servant first seems like a good strategy.

The quarrel between the girls did mention lots of stuff from previous episodes, which is clever, because it shortly retold happenings in a subtle way. It's noticeable how Emi seem to have changed, she's more collected than usual and might even see Maou differently at this point.

Urushihara makes me laugh, and good idea with those tracking devises. Must be something he purchased from jungle.com, sneaky little bastard xD

Well, this episode is quite interesting. This series shine when the plot progress IMO. Comedy alone isn't enough to make it great.

I for one agree with what Suzuno said about what Maou has done in the past, surely you can't just forget about it like it never happened.

What's with the orange spot around James's left eye? Guess he's wearing that weird glasses to hide that.

Nice that we're getting some development here. I'm a little worried about the ending though. I'm guessing it's going to be some kind of "to be continued" ending maybe. Does anyone know how far along in the novels the anime is?
