Even after watching this episode I'm still stumped by how there is almost no new information revealed about the story. It feels like a rehash of details that were already introduced and I still don't understand why the arc is called the Elf Speeder Arc. As for the highly anticipated fight between Raishin and Charlotte, it would have been more satisfying if there were some explanation of what those glowing effects actually do to Yaya (yes, there is still no information about them so just go the link in my review on ep 7 to find learn about them). To be honest, the animation quality also became noticeably weaker. It feels like the studio tried to hide the rough animation by lowering the brightness and using faster sequences but it only made the issues more noticeable.
