A mind-blowing, jaw-dropping conclusion to the prologue arc is being shown in the episode. The graphics were on top, featuring a blinding flash of pure, localised spatial distortion during the climactic spellblade manifestation, drastically shifting the show's underlying tone.

It was like a revelation with a flashback that just boosted all that anger. On top of that, it showed a sequence of the first-ever fight scene being executed. The lightning animation and the sound effects lined up very well with the action it was just pure intensity.

This labyrinth that the school has sure is a convenient plot hole device considering they don't scrutinize what happens in there. Some nice animation during Nanao's fight, it looked great. Yet somehow it was topped by revealing so much all at once. I wasn't expecting Oliver to have that much of a gruesome backstory but I'm all for it. A show stopper kind of episode.
