THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
This was a great explanation episode about Valbanill and Lisa Oakwood situation that has even a direct link to Lisa herself. The grave part was very nice of Cecily/Aria/Luke to pay respects to Elsa and her father's death reminded me of the Jack scene with Cecily/Aria after they killed that fire demon. Loved the nice talk of Aria/Cecily on the edge of that cliff about Lisa. Find that the explanation of Valbanill is good in that it shows that the monster somehow spared Lisa Oakwoods' soul and gave her a second chance at the price of a condition (japanese is bad so not sure of that condition). Most surprised that Cecily is not stupid in this episode because she figured out that since Luke did not want Cecily in the conference she would talk to Lisa and find out what she needs....to only convince Luke of her truth and Siegfried to test the sword of Lisa (most surprised that it broke Siegfried's test sword).I find that Siegfried evil side is well shown with his many faces and wanting to kill Cecily/Luke at the end of episode from what I understood. His face is too obvious he is evil=>
Ok that guard of Siegfried finally appears with his big axe to protect him but also shows up with nasty people to attack the city who are probably demon contractors since terrible monsters appear at the end of the episode. I wonder if he is a wizard other than Siegfried's personal guard....
I found myself emotional at Lisa's crying here
...she is just too cute/innocent to not feel for her when she cries. The old man in the council was annoying me with his laugh not to mention his mockery.
Why is there reference to Tolstoy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolstoy) here=>
Obvious method they used to hide Cecily breasts they used on Lisa'a naked goodness but to me I ignore it because I have no interest in lolis of that kind but others might like the DVD version of this.
Finally a interesting comparing pic they put as middle sign of episode....both Lisa's look the same almost......
Guess the final episode will have a epic town fight...let's see how good it can be.

it's gonna end in the next ep right?
my guess is-town fight,then cecily says"i'll protect this city forever"or something,then luke,lisa,aria,cecily smiling at the end...
i hope it's not THAT cliche
I actually like this series,but this ep was a bit confusing(they just dumped all the info),and I'm as shocked as Luke,lol

Well it's setting up to the finale..

Kinda strange those old man and lady listening to Cecily's explanation like a grade schooler..but oh well..

I dunno..i don't really hate Siegfried..perhaps the build up for this antagonist is not enough, instead those old man in conference kinda annoyed me..

Oh well i hope the ending didn't really fall

Lisa sacrificed herself to protect Luke. In other words that other Lisa is kinda the same person, I guess. Just without memories and as a demon.

Yes actually. I noticed it for the first time two episode ago.

Kind of weird they're packing almost the whole story into the last 3 episodes here. Season 2 maybe?

It would be pretty lame/hard to wrap up the whole thing in just one more episode. I don't even really remember the first 6-8 because they had so little to do with the last 2 have discussed, lol.

I thought the whole conference thing was bizzare. It was nice Ceily wasn't retarded for once. But she really needs to learn to reel in her anger. She's a knight, isn't she? She should know you don't talk to politician's like that. The old man didn't annoy me, but I thought it was weird and out of place for those kind of jokes.

I agree with you on the Siegfried, I have no reason to hate or dislike him really. It's more like "Oh hey, guess he's the bad guy heh? Oh okay".
We've seen very little of him, he's done very little "evil" that any of us would really care about. Your right, they should've built him up more to be despicable.

Wow. Cecily really proved herself in this episode and kicked everyone's ass in more ways than one. I'm actually very happy, I feel like she stole Luke's thunder in this episode, and rightly so since he kept telling her to get out everytime she spoke up.

Now everything's out in the open and atleast we know who the bad guys are now, but I wonder about the "man in black", we still don't have a decent synopsis on him yet and this show is almost over, I'm glad for Luke's past being unearthed but what about our villians? o_O;

Oh yeah, and Lisa's giant tears were epic, all big and wide.

It was a ok episode, the first part of the meeting was annoying, every time some says something, Cecily would yell something twice as long. =.=

Until I learned that Lisa was a demon, I thought Lisa was a Demon Sword that is a hammer (the endng song gave me that impression) >.<

With one episode left, does this mean season 2? Or will they jam everything and finish up the series.. that'll be interesting..

Revelations and Cecily being annoying when trying to defend Luke.

I agree with main bad guy about love being all joke.

Burn in hell was lol.

As surprising as the revelations were, the fact that Cecily was the one who put them together was the biggest surprise. Even though she's always been act first, think later (or never), I can buy her explanation since she is similar in many ways to Lisa version 1.0. And they do make sense. Still, all this feels rather rushed and I continue to wonder why they wasted so much time focusing on stupid stuff earlier in the series.

Great episode! Cecily.. stepped up in this one and you know what? I thought she might let her tongue slip and say that she liked Luke in a romantic way! LOL That would make me laugh my ass off til next week episode. She must of found out the truth from Lisa 2.0 and realized that he was a good guy underneath all the stupid stuff and poor decisions he made. Anyway, can't wait til next week... *wonders if we get a confession between Cecily and Luke?* HEHE --- Randy

It dosen't feel right at all....the anime is just going to end in 12 eps? I guess for a storyline like this is freakin' too short!

I also just realised about Luke's eyes when they said about it. It wasn't as fake as the previous episodes..Wadever the case they just squeeze lots into a 24min clip, its proceeding way fast.

I thought they would have set up the Luke-Cecily moments but i guess thats not possible. What Luke thinks of her(Cecily) is pure admiration, and a some what werid relationship.

BUT WHAT YOU SAY THAT WILL FINISH in 12 épisodes ?!
It's a Light Novel !
A light Novel ! So, if the anime is "good", we will have a second season like ZnT, Wolf and Spice and others things !
So for me, it's not the end of the anime, not the end of the Light Novels too. <_<
It's just like the "beginning" for me. Like a "important" plot settled with the first season ! (if we have a second)

Decent, no boob jokes in this one (either that or my brain is programmed to forget them by now).

But honestly, why dump this on the second-to last episode? Pretty meh.

Awful episode. It spammed endless amount of information within a short amount of time. Also, whatever "mystery" Siegfried had in the previous episodes just vanished into thin air, and without further ado, the final battle suddenly appears in front to us.

Would have been a much better anime had they actually cut back on the boob jokes, the annoying Charlotte parts (I mean, how difficult was it to compress that part into 1 epi? Not that difficult if you ask me) and actually made the "mysterious" cloaked man more mysterious. Seriously poor planning. Sums up the 90% of the anime this season. Trash.

Man, I almost puked there. This repetition of "love" is worse than that worm monster coming out from that guy's mouth in the previous episodes ~_~

I just found everything to be awkward, so I'll pretend never hearing that lame conference. Anyway, looking forward to the last episode, hope the fights entertain me.

I keep thinking that the love thing will defeat the demons, also the pact of Luke was another thing...you can make one by having another human and something of a body part to make a contract? That was interesting to understand but then why the father of Luke too?

God , Cecily talks so much , i rather have Luke talk than Cecily talk.

Ending must be Luke fighting with the Holy sword and ofcourse Cecliy accompanying him.

Lookinf forward to Luke fighting , wanted more of Luke fights but the anime failed to provide it.:(

I found it a little annoying for Luke with all the 'get out ' / 'leave' / ' you don't know anything' / ' it's not your business' towards Cecily, he was a little 'too' mean , even for him.I mean , she was only trying to help. >_<

I'm pissed cause only 1 episode left. Better be season 2 fast .

An okay episode and a lot of things were found out as well. Though it mostly consisted of talking, there were some good parts. Lol at Seigfried being unable to break Luke's katana, and seems that due to that he became even more evil at the end of the series. Though I'm more curious as to how they will end the series in the next episode . . .

Cecily you stupid, stupid girl. You made Luke frantic. Shame on you. ಠ_ಠ
Although that's one heck of a top-notch quality katana Luke's made ⊂( ゚ヮ゚)⊃
And then Siegfried says something insightful on the subject 'love' ◕ ◡ ◕
Loldemons attacking town. Shitcrap is too predictable so far ┐(-。ー')┌
