The fight scene was awesome ngl , but at the end of the episod, it made me feel thet the serie lost it´s north, this thing of the new sect to save the village scalated out of proportion in my opinion, and im starting to dislike i.
I feel like praise is due on the right place, and I do find the fights fun here and there, especially when they are fighting not just for the sake of it, like Ouriku here, because he has something at stake, even his believe is there. But again, the pacing is as bad as ever, with them showing a minute of montage of the villagers building, the same exact one that I had complained about previously, which is quite funny actually lol.
The episode began to fully explore Riku's mindset during a climatic battle. I cannot say it's a mindset I agree with but it is something I can understand. The writing failed to make me invested on the village's growth as they are more of a fodder to the plot. Both an obstacle and asset that a story revolving around them makes it lackluster. The pacing was rush and so the conclusion barely made a dent to me, emotionally.
