| This episode had elements of both escort and defense for Desir and his party. It was also the chance for the party to test their skills, and honestly, there was no doubt it's a tough mission. Pram actually performed really well for the amount of skills he displayed. Desir did his usual thing but I was bored with it. He didn't really wow me and his expressions seemed on auto-pilot. |
 |
| The raid on the Magical Tower, aside from the rather clunky 3DCG mix, is led under Kraiken to steal the magic gem: Tear of Regernel, which thanks to Desir's warning, the guards and the single rankers face a rather strong group of Outers. Pram alone is not enough, and Romantica also did her best, though in hindsight of Kraiken's powers, they were not able to overcome. That essentially transfers the next sequence to Desir, the one clothed in rags and one with the bread. Obviously, Desir is much stronger, and he's the only one who can bring this case to a close. Talk about leveraging both training and time travel together. |

| Sadly no Azest this week 😢 Damn no messing around in this ep, just straight action. Really cool seeing Pram get so much love in this one. Of course even with all the training from Desir, he alone was no match for Kreiken. Even when romantica showed up it wasn’t enough to take him down. Action was a little bit better than normal in this one. Still not the best, but serviceable. Thanks to the warning that Desir gave, there was a plan in place for the situation that Kreiken escaped with the tear and Desir showed up right on time. Assuming everything goes well, I wonder how Desir’s accurate prediction will be received by the higher ups. One last ep :/ |

| This episode sucked ass! They've been trying this whole time to fight together and Romantica waits until Pram is almost fucked to step in and then Desir lets them lose only to step in after that.......just dumb. This show was boring AF for the first 4 episodes, got better for the next 5 and now last episode and this one was boring and dumb. I don't know how this has a 7, must be all the LN/Webtoon readers slobing Prams knob and rating it a 10! I should have dropped it 9 episodes ago.....and that CG.....  |

| Pretty much just action this episode. Both Pram and Romantica fought well. Just one more episode to go. Hopefully s2 announcement will follow. |

| I thought this week's episode was a little off. The animation felt laggy and the choreography felt questionable. Even though fights with pauses and such can have good choreography, I'm not sure the choices the animators made for the characters' movements would've been the choices made by the characters. I did appreciate the way they started the episode but I kept expecting something bigger or smoother. Interested to see how they wrap it up next week as I still feel like there should be more story progression before the season ends. |
| So in this episode of JoJo, desperate hooded kid is running with a bag of bread and slams into this big ugly dude out in the small hours of the night. The dude helps him up but then threatens him and dumps the bread on the ground. Evil! Bad! Bad man! But then his cgi drones all appear, and they are these identical undead-looking zombie guys with skull masks and they walk toward a dark castle.... Maybe I'm blind, but I don't believe this castle has been shown before at least not in this lighting, in this kind of scene, as the bad guys launch their attack. It looks like another generic fantasy dark castle scene from another anime (probably is) The leader guy dons this idiotic looking mask.. I'm sorry, if you have to disguise yourself, that was the best you could come up with? Geezus It's all just magic circles and fluorescent color attacks until Pram shows up and is a total surprise with his now-stockings-improved shorts uniform and he challenges the understandably confused zombie guys. But Pram's entrance changes the dynamic at least..... magic circles +people standing firing green light at each other IS NOT EXCITING. There's no tension. Pram moves all over the screen- even though the animation tries to economize as much as possible, the way he darts around screen dodging horrible-looking magic attacks that for some reason turn into throwing giant boulders at him, is fun to watch. It's just a shame there was this dark filter covering everything. Not a very good episode. I really thought this anime was going to finish on a high note for its 1st season but this is really a disappointment. Since the next episode will just conclude this terrible battle scene, not much to look forward to. The only thing that made me smile (apart from Pram) this episode was the ED. I'll never get tired of that song^_^ |

| Pacing Is No Where Near As Good As It Was In Manga . Just Adapt Panel To Panel If U Don't Know How To Make It Better . Tsk , 1.5x to the rescue. |
