andrea24770★★★★☆VerifiedEP 13This last episode is actually not the true end, just the animated one and I think this was real good in the sense in had emotion and got even more interesting, shame it ended up like that but is amazing anyways.
andrea24770★★★★☆VerifiedEP 12This episode was dinamic and good, showing the closer idea of Shuri and Tatara discovering each other´s identity was exciting, this was great to see:)
andrea24770★★★★☆VerifiedEP 11The episode is pretty much of the same and does not give important information to the story, however, is quite emotional and explains why some characters are that way:)
andrea24770★★★★☆VerifiedEP 10Here we start seeing the inding of some parts and how Tatara gets closer to the main problem, this episode was way better than the last one.
andrea24770★★★★☆EP 9I think this episode has no actual value in the plot and was weird to see, felt a bit forced on some parts, tha visuals and soundtrack were good.
andrea24770★★★★☆VerifiedEP 8Here we can see how Tatara actually has to make hard decisions and how everyone despite all decides to keep fighting, is actually a tense episode.
andrea24770★★★★☆EP 7This ep had sense and a lot of things clicked in place from what we were told before, the animation downgraded just a bit, in general in good but not so memorable.
andrea24770★★★★☆EP 6This episode is more focused on the character´s feelings but without leaving aside the main story, it was real dramatic in a good way:)
andrea24770★★★★☆EP 5This episode does not give much apart from showing certain characters, was usual and the only thing I´ll probably remember is Ageha being loyal to Tatara.
andrea24770★★★★☆VerifiedEP 4They are deepening back stories and characters without making it boring or difficult to understand, the music is great and I wonder how the story will keep on by all the things that cam happen in just one episode.
andrea24770★★★★☆EP 3I think the story is getting faster, has reliable argument and includes characters without feeling forced, the same as the tension grows by since everything that happens adds to Sarasa´s motivation.
andrea24770★★★★☆VerifiedEP 2Well, this was an episode with a plot twist, I liked the context and details like the Red King being cannibal and I´m sure the dinamic presented on this will bring interesting situations.
andrea24770★★★★★VerifiedEP 1This first episode was one of the best I´ve seen, it has a lot of emotion and all kind of drama on it, for the year in was made in is real good and other things like the soundtrack or voice acting make this enjoyable.
usanggracious★★★★☆VerifiedEP 13Such a cliff hanger this series ended with. It was one hell of a ride though, no dull moments. I really wish they'd pick up on this eventually. I might even go back to the manga just to see what happens. Beautiful finale
usanggracious★★★★☆VerifiedEP 12The stakes are at its peak, two lovers who don't know they're enemies embark on covert missions to the same place, facing challenges together. I love how the penultimate episode concludes building one up for the finale
usanggracious★★★★☆VerifiedEP 11I really liked shido as a character, very well written. This episode was very touching. We see shido having some form of conflict of interest, slightly questioning his beliefs.
usanggracious★★★★☆VerifiedEP 10So Sarasa has a lot of plot armour... starting with the prophecy lol, so somehow there's always a way out of impossible situations. It's incredible the challenges she intentionally puts herself in...the episode ending was such a cliff hanger setting the right mood for the next episode
usanggracious★★★★☆EP 9Amidst all the chaos, the love between shuri and Sarasa grows slowly. We also see some intense sea battles here. So far the tension is high up there leaving you wanting for more
usanggracious★★★★☆VerifiedEP 8I love how every situation sarasa finds herself is always very risky and dangerous. You won't be able to take your eyes off the show, it has been very engaging so far. There are no dull moments with this anime so far. The animation is beautiful for its time and all the characters are well written.
