EPISODE REVIEWS

I found it admirable how Magna and Asta didn't take their match personally. It speaks way more about their relationship than any character exposition. The thing with the flower guy and Sol was inspiring as well. God tier episode!

I found Sol a little hot-headed and unlikeable before her backstory, but her (sometimes extreme) admiration for Charlotte is so well explained. Charlotte is so charismatic! It makes sense she's a captain of such a successful magic knights crew.

The animation feels like it's improved by a ton! Compared to the arc with the Witch Queen, the battles between characters feel much more dynamic and in turn, immersive. Sol and Mimosa's confrontation was unexpectedly fire!

The way Mimosa outsmarted Sol by hiding a seed in that dirt monster made me realize she is way more than just a healer and her brain is actually her best weapon in these fights

Asta had to work so hard to get close to Magna and that annihilation fireball spell is no joke since it actually forced the kid to adapt his movement mid air

Langris looks like he is about to snap, and you can tell Finral is in for a rough time after seeing that dark look on his brother's face during the bracket reveal

That ending theme change with Noelle is kind of weird and the older version was definitely better because the coloring looked more natural before they messed with her outfit design

I really did not think Sol would get a whole backstory today but seeing Charlotte save her village when those guys just stood there explained so much about her personality and why she is so protective of her sis

Seeing a young Charlotte step up and save Sol when the men were useless gave so much weight to why Sol is the way she is and her devotion to her captain makes total sense now

Kirsch is so annoying with the flower petals and the peasant talk but you can tell even he was impressed by how hard Asta and Magna were going at each other by the end

Magna actually using his head with those timed fireballs to keep Asta away was such a cool way to see his progress and it shows he can keep up even without massive mana reserves

I actually felt kind of bad for Magna because he has to work ten times harder than everyone else just to stay relevant, but his duel with Asta was incredible. Seeing him land those shots and force Asta to think fast made me respect him way more. Also Mimosa planting that seed in Sol's golem was a total sleeper play for the win

Finral looking all serious about facing Langris has me nervous because his brother seems like a literal psychopath and the tension between them is way higher than any other match so far

Asta just keeps pushing through and that part where he smashed the crystal after Magna got taken out by the trap was a great way to end the match
