I cannot believe this show made me laugh at a man punching someone so hard they exploded and then cry twenty minutes later when the little sister got dropped out of the sky. Bonifatius going full grandfather juggernaut while the guards just stood there was everything and also nothing. That window scene with Damuel is gonna haunt him for the rest of the series

Rozemyne seeing her commoner family in the audience and almost blowing up the whole ceremony with her mana is such a her thing to do. Sweet and terrifying at the same time. Then the episode ends with her drugged and dragged off somewhere and now I have to wait a week to find out if she is alive. This show really said enjoy the grandfather punching people because we are about to make you suffer. The masked guy mocking her saint status before poisoning her was cold. That whole last stretch had me stressed

Honestly the pacing felt off during the attack. Everyone just kind of waited their turn while the attackers did their thing. The Bonifatius payoff carried the whole back half for me
