----------------------------------------
Princess Tutu really didn't have to worry this episode. Even if Kraehe didn't have a fate to be loved by only 2 people I think Femio is enough of an idiot to still ruin her plans.

Speaking of fate, Mytho's mockery of Rue's effort in the end made me think a bit more about how both sides are at a severe disadvantage now. The only person, other than her father, that Kraehe can be loved by is Mytho. His current 'dark' side's comment certainly doesn't instill any confidence that he'd ever really love her. Mytho's real self is in love with Tutu so she can't have him that way. On the other hand Tutu can't say she loves Mytho at all. So even if she gets him his heart and true personality back she's still stuck.

The looks on Kraehe and Tutu's faces when Femio said he couldn't do it were hilarious xD

Fakir was cute at the end

Go Femio! Fight the powa! I'm glad somebody finally saw through the "hate all other things" gimmick.

What an upset for Kraehe that was! :D and Heaven finally punished Femio for his crimes! LOL!

Even though she's only a side character, I'm liking the innocent and naive but curious Uzura more and more! Cute! :)
You see there's no need to wonder where your god is,
Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy.

I don't know why they make such a fuss over Kraehe's "loss". Femio is so self-centered he wouldn't fall for anyone, even for Mytho or Raven himself, for God's sake!

Uh, so Kraehe and Tutu don't need to have a dance off, and Femio gets trampled by a stampede of bulls. Okay

I wonder why those pages are ripped out in the back of the books though. And who was that guy in the window at the library? Story please get deeper!

Always go full Utena.
Always.

Finally an episode somewhat free of all the predictability of the show. Femio, an utterly bonkers of a character provided some life in the show which to be honest, was getting a tad stale in the previous couple of episodes.
Kraehe/Rue's position is probably the most fragile, given how the dark Mytho disregards her at times. Also I rarely go for shippings, but I wouldn't mind Fakir and Ahiru ending up together.
But that wouldn't be destiny, would it now?

Why do I feel the pity even more than before to our 'antagonist', Kraehe now?

Anyways combining the Habanera piece with the funny thing of that 'Prince' is quite neat.

Well, I don't care much for Femio, but the results of this episode were great. It's not often in these types of shows where the 'villain' is foiled without the intervention of the hero, which makes it remarkable in itself. But then the continuing introspection going on within Rue's head makes her a very interesting character.

Interesting knowing that about Fakir. He is the descendant of Drosselmeyer... I wonder how the story will be finished now

I agree with the comments here. This episode was a breath of fresh air. More introspection on Rue, and the guy rescuing himself. You gotta feel for Rue, but that's how Shoujo is. That's why the show is meta. No matter what Rue does, no guy will ever fully commit to her. No matter what Duck does, she seems to have people falling for her.
