They changed the OP and ED, and I regret to say that the previous versions are better than the current ones. Still, they're good songs. The fight scenes in this episode were so-so, I don't even think you can call it a fight scene because of how one-sided it is. The plot is finally progressing, and I hope that my questions about certain characters' identities will be explained soon.

Un episodio en el que se desarrollan subtramas y dedicado a preparar las cosas para lo que está por venir.

It was only a one-week break, but I already missed this series. 😆 Things are getting really interesting, and I liked how this episode was structured. It was clearly setting up something REALLY good, and I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes next.

After a week without an episode, this really felt like the beginning of a new chapter for the series. It started off steadily and ended with a tension-filled atmosphere that left me wanting more. I liked the progress so far, and it definitely kept the excitement alive.

I didn't expect this episode to be a little funny because things had been pretty tense from the start. But I liked how they balanced the humor with the serious moments, lol. This was such a good episode and a strong return after the break.

New chapter starts. The fake asa finally moves, and story starts to become interesting.

Not really interested in how the kidnapping went down in detail, most of the conversation couldve been shown after during the confrontation. Not really emotionally affected by the Shaman's death, abit wasted, might be abit too early for this, don't think they really setup anything to make it emotional as well.

An episode without the main character in action is abit awful tbhk, especially as the start of the 2nd arc. This is the this 2 episodes has been a real slow down compared to the 1st half of the anime.

It was great to finally see what Ivan can do. His presence injects a lot of tension into the story, putting some real pressure on our main characters. The stakes are clearly rising, and the absolute bloodbath in this episode made it an incredible watch.

The first bit being a recap was really helpful now that we're midway into the season! Much of the following scenes here were intense - but I feel like that slight one week break in between 12 and this episode kinda dampens the intensity of it all. Still, a very well done episode if you ask me! I love how we see how no-nonsense Ivan is when it comes to what he does, and that there's more trouble coming Yuru's way once again.

Very brutal and gory scene. Too much blood. It made us angry because it was such a one-sided fight. That anger makes us eager to watch the next episode! It ends with a cliffhanger and gives us a glimpse of a big fight coming up.

Episode ini menjadi rangkuman untuk cour pertama, untuk yang lupa semuanya dalam jeda dua minggu. Opening barunya juga bagus, tapi menurutkan masih lebih bagus yang g pertama. Ceritanya kembali berfokus pada desa, dan aku tidak menyangka Asa palsu akan kembali muncul dan mulai terlibat dalam cerita. Seperti biasa, kualitas animasinya tetap bagus, dan kekuatan yang diperlihatkan di episode ini juga terlihat unik dan menarik.

EPISODE CONTEXT

Episode 13 is the literal halfway point of a 24-episode season, making it a natural pivot in the overarching story. What the first 12 episodes established — in terms of world rules, character allegiances, and central conflicts — now faces its first major structural test. This episode bridges the setup half of the season with the escalation half, and the direction it points will shape the back 11 episodes considerably.
