Synopsis
Caiman returned to the world of sorcerers to get more information. Meanwhile, En was thrilled to know someone has the power to control time.
Story
Right after the episode has ended, I've noticed a flaw, and that's Nikaido not running instantly after Caiman.
She knows how powerful En's group was, didn't she think Caiman alone won't be able to handle them? She'll probably go in the next episode, but I think that would have been already out of her character.
And we've learned a special event called the Blue Night, where mages try to acquire a partner, in a forceful and brutal method. In a way, it's like
Battle Royale.
Characters
There were two members in En's family who I didn't recognize... the one with a bandage on his face and the guy with a chicken mask.
Speaking of En, he indeed doesn't have a partner, and surprisingly the mage he was looking for all this time was actually Nikaido. So I guess, there's no more major character who we don't know the ability.
I'm also looking forward to the role of Aikawa (Risu's partner)... guess we'll just have to see in the upcoming episodes.
And props to Ebisu for providing the comedy once again.
Writing / Storyboarding
Eight episodes have passed, and the storyboarding never failed in this anime. Most of the scenes will make sure there's something that you shouldn't miss. And it's just really a combination of great thinking and writing.
Artwork / Animation
The art department has once again delivered their best. From the costume designs, I think En's matching fashion with Kikurage was really cute and gorgeous.
Here take a look at the ship, you'll see a letter Q in the middle which is a symbol for
Q Hayashida:
And if you notice the background art, you'll see the famous painting '
The Scream':
Music / Sound
We've got another new (fun) ending song. So, that's already three in just eight episodes. I won't be surprised anymore if there'll be a new one.
