Wow, so many connections are finally coming to the surface. I guess it’s just like real life, the world really is smaller than it seems. We’re seeing both sides of the story unfold now, which gives us a much better understanding of this arc and its characters. There’s so much happening emotionally that it’s hard to even process everything. What an incredibly strong cliffhanger.

Another lore-heavy episode, and not just for Emilia but for the other characters as well. This episode completely changed the way I view Betelgeuse and made me reconsider my perception of him as a character. I went through so many emotions while watching this episode, and for me, it was nothing short of a masterclass.

I'm weak to sacrificial moments like this yo, I learned to hate Geuse from the previous season and now suddenly I'm his biggest oshi, bro deserved better. That aside, there's so many new variables introduced into the lore, including the existance of other Archbishop and the fact perhaps the cult itself is not solid and has their own factions warring against each other.
