I adored this episode, I really did. Probably because of the ending and all the fluff that Romeo didn't know about till the end. XD I squealed in this one... Anyway, I must say it was awesome how Romeo saved Juliet from the fire by actually stepping on it. Also, Benvolio gets points for caring about his friend. Can't wait for the next episode!

Yeah, I liked this episode, too. I believe they even used a line from the real deal in the translation. So yeah, for above stated reasons, good episode.

Also, yay for bug fixes.

Ah, yes, I noticed that too. "If this flower had no name, it would still smell as sweet." I was actually too thrilled to hear it. xD

The series is just "ok" for me. I dunno... maybe it's because of my love of the original work... **sigh**. This was a good episode, and I'm anxious to see what happens next... but at this point, I'm not sure I'm gonna continue watching this 'till the end. Like I said, I think I'm just biased.

I loved this episode. But something bugged me. I love romance, but it's kind of irritating when all the characters are too shy and all the do is blush, stutter and be embarassed by anything. LOL maybe it's just my opinion.

Yeahhhh I loved this episode. XD The translated line and the fluff at the end... wewt.

I feel kind of bad for the people who get apprehended for no reason, just 'cause someone said they might be the Red Whirlwind. All the peasants should start pointing fingers at each other... Maybe then the guard people/"police" won't know where to turn?

the only quibble I had is this: that much hair does not fit under that kind of wig without some kind of dimensional portal.

For some reason it seemed really glaring today.

I thought the same about the hidden hair! Definitely loving the series. I did think the bishie romance with Odin/Romeo was a little odd. As far as he knew, Odin was a guy..

lol, ya. I thought the same thing. Romeo is a nice guy, but inviting some guy he just met to go flying with him? Oh well. :) It was still cute.

I'm watching this dubbed, cracks me up that I am watching a show that was translated from Old English, into Japanese and back into English. It's a plus that I get to watch it in English because of all the quotes from Shakespeare's original works that they keep throwing in.

The "Why? It's nothing I've never seen before" line cracked me up. Romeo had no idea.

This episode was just too awkward for me. The way Romeo treated Odin just felt weird and I felt that a great opportunity was missed. I don’t care who you are, if someone offers you a chance to ride with them on a flying horse you will except so I’m cool with that part, but the conversation just didn’t seem to go anywhere. It would have been hilarious if Romeo asked Odin for advice concerning love or something like that. At least that cat is out of the bag so there shouldn’t be any more situations like that again.

Romeo told a guy (as far as he knew) that he liked how he smelled? Not gay at all...
But I am finally starting to like this anime. During the previous episodes, I just felt like it was something which has been done again and again. But now, I'm left wondering if it will actually end as the tragic love story which Romeo and Juliet is known to be. Anything could happen at this point and I am more and more suprised as the anime furthers. There is no relationship to reconcile over Romeo and Juliet's death because the Capulets have been killed.
Also, Juliet is kickass.

I thought since he figured out Odin smelled of Iris's and so did the red whirlwind or whatever and Juliet that he'd worked out they were all one in the same ... until the end of the episode when it's clear, he's not so bright lol.

It was a super cute episode though!

I can't believe she nearly fell in the fire! but at least he saved her and ended up on top of her after, awkward lol. But totally adorable indeed! <3

I can't wait to see next one <3 :3

If I was Juliet when she was on the dragon steed, one of the things I would be wondering is if Romeo was into guys because let a stranger ride on his steed, while he was basically hugging the "guy." Also he seemed to complement him on his smell, so Juliet knows he smells guys. At least he wasn't embarrassed to be changing next to a dude.
I liked the episode, especially the ending, but if I was Juliet it would have raised some red flags. I guess a girl in love wouldn't be thinking like that though.

FUCK
It was for a split second but I think I saw a huge spoiler today while browsing.

Also Romeo acting a little too close & personal with a boy (even though it was Juliet). I don't know what Juliet was expecting when she was changing, taking her sweet ass time when Romeo is just out the door.

PS: This shit reminds of the Fire Emblem games. It just lacks dragons lmao

Huh. They flipped the "a flower by any other name" line. Rather than having Romeo say it to Juliet, it's Juliet saying it to Romeo. And, rather than a courting line, appearing to have Romeo proclaim his love regardless of their families, it's Juliet begrudging Romeo's name, wishing that he were born into another family so their bloodlines wouldn't be as conflicted. It's a different interpretation of the line, and I never would have thought to apply the line in such a way.

I really love trying to explain Romeo not recognizing Odin/Juliet. Perhaps Juliet’s impressively hair-concealing wig has some magical, Clark Kent glasses-esque ability to disguise her? More likely, Romeo has only ever seen Juliet (at least sans mask) twice before this (and rather briefly both times).

True love at its finest.

That’s the core of Romeo and Juliet, after all. Two naive teenagers who know nothing of love, who are smitten at first sight, who know very little of one another, and yet each believe they cannot live without the other. The foolishness of young love, of simple infatuation.

I’m torn between wanting some actual development in the romance and feeling like the current lack of any fits the source well. It at least feels a little lacking to have Juliet obsess over Romeo, yet be incapable of having ANY conversation with him without trying to keep herself distant (especially with how she keeps trying to run away).

Phewww what an episode! that last bit was absolutely adorable, I wonder where it will lead to.
Kinda did suspect the Father was not so holy, I'm guessing he is exchanging Information for his own protection. typical.
Also very cute moment that he pegasus? either recognised Juliet or likes the smell or Irises...I wonder why...

Next Episode really looks intense....

I'm also loving that it does not follow the Original Play that much but that so far it just seems to be loosely based off on it. But that they still keep certain aspects/ "lines" here and now.

So you are telling Romero was trying to get it on with a boy, if he didn't know it was Juliet? Well this was Italy the middle ages lol Romero was offly close to a person he thought was a guy.
