That art was..........although i knew that they must have a reason,that may have entered into a book of art or something like that(lol).but in the end it returned to normal.i don't know how i watched this episode thoroughly but in the end it went well due to Dalian's help..it was ok i guess this episode i mean 2.5/5

Probably the best episode of the series so far, nice to see some GAINAX creativity, them going inside the book was a spectacular twist. I still wonder how the series will finish and what will conclude from it all, but I'm interested. 4 more episodes :)

Yeah was so so. You're right, it felt Nausica like with Ira's art, and then destructive bugs. I am not exactly sure how or what type of books they were entering.

Awesome, I wish they'd animated it this way from the start. But I guess then they'd have to find another different style for this episode. Either way, it's easily my favourite episode.

I really adored the art change from the start, it had a nostalgic feel to me. I wish more anime had art styles like that, it's so creative and nice to look at.
Woah, I didn't realize that Huey was so tolerant of Dalian until now. She insults him and he just calmly replies with "Yeah, yeah."
No Flam this episode, again. D:

Not a bad episode, the art change was a bit hard to get used to but was interesting.

Well, it was not a great episode...

I feel like this show would be a lot better if the episodes were longer.

The whole show feels so rushed to me.

Rushed? I don't think it's rushed, 'til now i really don't see a real story for this anime to at least say it's being rushed. Everyone somehow know the Biblioteca Mistica, which i think it's weird since i thought no one believed in it's existence.
Every episode already starts with Dalian and Huey searching for some book - maybe this can be called rushed, but i believe that if they really wanted and if the show really had a story, the anime would flow much better. 'Til now they didn't even say anything about Huey's grandfather and that pink haired girl that appears sometimes with a blonde boy that looks like Huey or maybe is his grandfather.
The only good thing until now was Flamberge and Hal.
Well, that's just my opinion.

Boring episode as always.

It didn't feel rushed but....WTH was that?! Ugh that was too painful!!! Please don't EVER do that again!!!...EVER.

Art was cool.

Again, a very interesting episode. Those who find this series boring should pay more attention to the details and the wonderful references behind the Gensho.

People who complains about the art: I'm sorry but this is far from being called "bad" art. It was clearly intentional in this case (they were smart enough to integrate it within the story).

Oh look, the art style changed in a way that makes it seem as if it downgraded, but it was still better.

Art is subjective. Everything was less detailed, felt washed out, and had lots of QUALITY scenes. T o me, that was bad. Maybe you liked it, but nobody is really right or wrong when it comes to debating art. Some people think that blobs of paint on a canvas is good art, after all!

*raises hand* I liked it (the art, I mean)~

Fun Fact: I remember this art from episode five (technically, ten) of Panty and Stocking. Point being--that was my favorite episode.

Don't know why people are complaining about the art for, I thought it was unique.
Episode was alright though.

I knew I wasn't alone in thinking that she looked somewhat like Nausicaa.

Really bad episode. Strange change of style, and the story wasn't anything special either.

I mean, it just seems to me that when a problem has risen, it is solved immediately and the episode is over.

I'm just comparing it to other episodic shows too much.

The art was completly different. It was okay, I didn't really hated it. But I prefer the normal art.

I really enjoyed the art in this episode, as I think the rest of the show looks "too standard" in my eyes. A unique flair to the art almost always helps a series, and I kinda wish every episode would look like this. Maybe the characters movements could have been better, but otherwise? I'm sold!
