It would be nice.. but who knows lol - Noblesse Oblige - And I'm saying a prayer for the desperate heart's tonight |

Actually the most recent VN that came out this last weekend is an arc that won't appear till Umineko's second season. And the next VN comes out right around the time first season ends, so VN readers will still be ahead. |

This episode disappointed me. I figured the reason that DEEN was rushing through the previous scenes was so that they would have time to do the meta battles well. But I felt that this episodes emphasis was on the Kanon fight and not the meta battle, which I think is wrong. It just felt like it had none of the impact that it should have. With that aside the rest of the episode was decent. I have no problems with the censorship, and the Kanon fight scene managed to be pretty dramatic even with me knowing what was going to happen. I just wish they didn't have to sacrifice the meta battle for it.  |

Let's hope the meta scenes in the next episode have a lot more screen time.  |

The anime really starts to grow on me! I love this Phoenix Wright feeling. I love riddles and especially things that remind me of Phoenix Wright. But come on, the first "riddle" was way to simple. Since it is obvious that she won't make it too easy, he should have known the answer much earlier. After this episode, I'm pretty sure this will be the best anime in summer 2009 for me. By the way, I want to beat the fucking shit out of Maria so badly everytime I see her, she's driving me nuts. Modified by Zilpzalp, 08-20-09, 4:11 PM |

Lol, don't fuck with mad rabbits. Fighting between Kanon and Beatrice's furnitures was pretty well done. Somehow even it was a bit exciting. :del And I like when randomly Beatrice and Battler appears to solve the mystery who was right, magic or = anti magic. Anyway, once again great episode imo. I just wish episodes would be longer, somehow ~23 minutes isn't enough. Always when episode ends I want more. ;-; Well, its really pain in the ass to wait week for new episode. Especially when its your favorite anime of season. |

I noticed us VN readers are the ones moping and groping on this episode, while the anime only watchers are the ones that enjoyed the episode a lot. *sigh* Maybe the VN shouldn't have been translated until the anime was over. Maybe then we wouldn't be so nitpicky. Modified by HaiShang, 08-20-09, 4:43 PM |

Man my head hurts after this one, but can't wait for the conclusion I am the light and the darkness tossed away by fate. I am hope and despair needed by all and to none. I am CuresDestiny. Fear me or Not it is all the same to me. <insert maniacal laughter here>  |

Things to think about. if Kanon had the power to use a magic sword like that, then why didn't he do it in the first arc? He was by himself confronting Beatrice and he used a billhook instead. If the culprit for the first twilight was the witch Beatrice then why would she have to go through the trouble of retrieving the key from Maria? She could just use magic to open the lock. |
