EPISODE REVIEWS

I was not prepared for this episode. At all. Shin and Leno's story is one of the most heartbreaking things this show has done. Returning to the present with everyone in tears felt completely earned. The name carved on the cradle destroyed me.

This episode is filled with emotion and sudden twists that reveal answers to the mysteries. Nicely written story, and the animation style is unexpectedly good.

The title says it all someone has been holding something precious for two thousand years just hoping it reaches the right person at the right time. Erdomaid's role in the past is getting more layered with every episode and this one adds a side to him you wouldn't have expected. The quieter moments in this episode land harder than any fight scene could. The show is clearly building toward something and the patience here makes it feel earned.
