EPISODE REVIEWS

A much quieter emotional episode. It's a bittersweet ending to the Gévaudan arc. The flowers from when Jeanne and Chloe first met coming back was beautiful.

The Gévaudan arc concludes with a beautiful and emotionally satisfying resolution. While the pacing slows down, it serves an important purpose by focusing on the aftermath and allowing the characters’ relationships to fully settle. Chloe’s renewed will to live alongside Jean provides a heartfelt closure, while the growing bond between Jeanne and Vanitas adds a lighter, more charming touch. There’s still some action present, particularly from Noé’s side, but the real strength of this episode lies in its emotional payoff. Overall, a strong and well-earned conclusion to the arc.

Jeanne’s side gets more attention, and the episode leans into a melancholic tone. Noé observes more than he speaks, which works well. A still, emotional moment says everything.
