THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I have to admit the fan service in this episode was quite amazing for being on flow with the rest of the action/plot/drama. That was quite a feature. Among it the following,

Along with the spoiler
show perfectly the breast shape and ass of Hakaze more than before. Whom is a better view than any from before as it show more skin to say the least.

While Evangeline in the spoiler
had quite the cleaveage exposition as one can see and in the middle of the fight which I find so far from the start is pretty good service balance. Now Evangeline clash in the following,
http://i1207.photobucket.com/albums/bb480/Yumekichi11/Picture%2039/1354813826155_zps92f49669.jpg
Desires a lot of attention for its SFX/lighting techs however it remains a mystery from the spoiler
if those are censors of some form or a plain censoring to stay.

While Samon's expressions of freaking out were hilarious. I was laughing out my socks for how appears.

Seems at the end the barrel is connected with Hakaze. Anything she does to it appears in the current time frame? CHANCE! Is that it? Could it be the opening clue to save Hakaze? Damn need next episode. It's getting better now.

It looks like Hakaze is finally coming back and also it was good to see Natsumura having his showdown with Evangeline. If you want to see my full impressions the check out my review of the episode below.

3 episodes of nothing but Dialogue, with a fourth on the way it would seem.
And its freaking brilliant.
This show needs to stop blowing my mind.

If you really want to fit in, just put Legend of the Galactic Heroes in your top 5 and have it be the only 10-rated anime in your list.

This episode had me really enthralled. I think sometimes they repeated information unnecessarily but it didn't bother me too much.

I also noticed a lot of Hakaze fanservice, and yeah, it fit in really well. Didn't feel out of place, overdone, or forced at all, so I will certainly welcome more of that in the future ;)

ALL ANIMES! Should be like that if only the industry would be in alliance and not market competition. *sight* rants at money.

But yeah truly a good example here folks of how service should be done so you don't bitch at it. Take it well in this episode.

Wow so Yoshino's plan had a different outcome than what I was expecting. We the audience thought he had some grand master plan to travel through time that he thought of on the spot but it turns out this whole ploy was just a morale boost for Hakaze and a demoralizer for Samon. He was pretty funny this episode with his reations to Yoshino's bullshit. "No you're wrong!!" "What is this nonsense!?" Haha

I'm actually glad Mahiro knew that something was off with Yoshino's theory and wasn't the typical hothead. These debates and theories remind me of Death Note which is always a plus.

Well, Yoshino just has little knowledge about magic. Then he will need Hakaze if he wants to resolve her situation.

Wow way to go Yoshino, though I expected some kind of amazing theory this is fine too. I can't wait to see how they'll get Hakaze back in their time line, maybe it has something to do with the barrel since it's connected or something? I have no idea but I'm looking forward!

I am very curious who'll turn out to be Aika's killer too, I have 2 theories but one of them is a little too obvious and the other one is simply strange. I can't imagine the plot going like either of thoe 2 but I think one of the options will be right.

Oh and am I the only one who's curious about Junichirou's powers? Even though he doesn't have any magic abilities it seems he has some kind of power, I mean 2 episodes ago he beated that spear guy with his bare hands...? :)

The power of her magic is directly related to the level of technology - wooden barrels are low-tech. She needs hi-tech stuff. The higher/more advanced/more complicated the technology the greater Hakaze's power. That's why Samon left her on that island - because she wouldn't find high tech items.

Here's the Wiki note on Ariel:

Poor Samon, his clan has been waiting 60 years to spring this little party, his whole life has been focused on it, against all odds he is standing on the precipice of success, and then his starring role gets completely usurped by complete amateurs while all he can do is to babble like a impotent fool.

Some days just ain't worth waking up for.

Since she looks a little like his Aika I would not be surprised he would accept her. Less Aika is revived somehow. That's how I would see it.

Well that was one incredible episode. Yoshino ftw, usually more in favor of Mahiro, but I think both are definitely equal, and he was even smiling and getting all into his theory.

Poor Samon as he was pushed down and back against the wall panicking. The barrel thing thing was shocking though, mindblown just thinking how its even possible

Anyhow yoshino just got more awesome after this episode, i love having a MC that actually uses his head, like you know its good writing when the MC manages to even fool the audience as well as the "villain"

Also i really give this show props for spending the last 3 episodes focusing on dialogue and developing the lore and plot rather than just throwing in expensive fights, this show comes off more as a seinen than it does a shounen

Fucking yes yes YES! Watching these last few episodes has been so gratifying. While this show has had it's ups and downs. I have been grinning my cheshire grin with great joy over this set of dialogue. It has been nothing short of very amusing indeed.

... I think my leg is a tad sore at slapping it when ever Samon is not getting the turn of events in his favor. Rock on Yoshino and Mihiro!

<3 Aika... oh Aika, what have you done?

*edit* FUCKKKKK!
all you non manga reader do NOT check Aika or Hakaze spoiler tags... Hahahaha spoilers indeed. Time to drink more and forget for next week. XDD

Thank you, as you can see this is what the standards should be for things to be less hectic service wise but alas not much of this is done. Binbougami was the other series that did fine.

Suffice to say I find Hakaze a very refined women and skin wise appealing. Not many girls pull that off and Hakaze's maturity shines nicely too.

Samon did a pretty big mistake.

Samon proved himself that there's time travel and thus made it so that it isn't possible to debate about the matter anymore.
It's not about theorizing anymore, it's about them finding a way to travel time.

Basically he dodged a bullet by jumping off the bridge. Words can't stop them anymore, he can only hope that they won't find the truth before Aika's killer is bring to Mahiro.

He lost his only weapon (words) and is left vulnerable to any whim of the tree of genesis.

I'll say it clear now since the message probably didn't pass well enough here: Hakaze is indeed 2 years in the past.
There's no stupid trick like only the barell is in the past and Hakaze is still in the present. Hakaze is genuinely 2 years into the past and there's no way around it, this should have been clear at this point but it look like some people still doesn't beleive it.

Yoshino is such a badass. Taking Hakaze out of her despair and making Samon all nervous and getting mindfucked by logic. xD These last few episodes with just dialogue have been so good. I also like the fight with Evangeline and the other mage. :D

I lost track of time watching this episode. OMG THE IRONY. I'M SO FUNNY. AHAHAHAHA NOPE.

I think my brain just died. All those mind tricks and everything. Notice how they didn't even move from the spot the ENTIRE EPISODE. Even Hakaze. She like took five steps but that's about it. It's just amazing how they keep us entertained without all the action but just with psychological attacks.

They're really pushing the Hakaze fanservice. I'm kind of surprised as to how those clothes haven't worn out already.

I've got another theory:



Or you know. I could be completely wrong. It could be a totally new dude. But this kind of story doesn't seem to be heading that way since it's all about coincidences that aren't really coincidences and time paradoxes and logical fallacies and all that.

That was a pretty good episode considering that no one moved more than a few steps the entire episode haha. They really did well with all the scenes though. I am not complaining. I really want to see how things get going now. I am hoping that the characters at least move next episode though. I wonder what Junichirou is up to.

I didn't expect Hakaze really is from a different timeline...
But they should have figured this out from the start after learning that!

Hearing her voice through the doll... that means magic can be used to connect her to the current time frame.

Also, Samon isn't a great antagonist. He is just a sore loser.
