EPISODE REVIEWS

Pure politics and power game in this episode, the part where Bunho was glitching was actualy real funny. So whats next? The destruction of the new heretic sect?

I don't know about this episode. On one hand I really like the flare and drama of the characters, but on the other hand I feel like everything is such a cheap pull. Maybe it won't feel as such if I had watched the first season, but it did, which is disheartening to say the least. And that montage, I swear this anime love montages, but it took too long of a screentime, an if yoi're making it that long , just make an actual scene instead.

Bunho would have been such an interesting character if the animators manage to handle his gag well, otherwise he simply became half-baked. Shushin has continued his life as a prince, but so far, there's little reference to his trauma from a heretic sect outside his complete prejudiced against them. In fact, he becomes much more emotional because of his love life. Would have been a great drama if I actually like Riku as a protagonist.
