Very nice episode, things are starting to move. I enjoyed the play as well, especially how Willy was acting all the time. Looks like Romeo will join the fun next time.

Good episode. I liked the idea to use the "Red Whirlwind" instead of revenge as a Capulet.

Therer were some major bouts of quality is the first act, other than that a decent ep; really glad to see the ending starting to work itself out.

It was great to see the rebellion finally start. Don't get me wrong I love the relationship building stuff, but been waiting for this for awhile. I really like how they decided on the Red Whirlwind being the head of the rebellion, rather than Capulets.

What a nice episode, it has all romance, drama, actions all packed in an ep.
Indeed it was great to see her came up with a resolution of revolution thru Red Whirlwind rather than being the Capulet's daughter.
Eagerly lookin forward to next ep!

Ah, I really loved this episode. Yay, the Red Whirlwind is back! Heh. I agree with everyone else, that I really like how the revolution has started and how she was leading it as the Red Whirlwind as opposed to it just being a Capulet's revenge kind of thing. I thought this episode was pretty exciting, with the revolution finally getting put into motion.

This ep had a lot of good things about it, some not so good. They packed a lot into it which maybe made different scenes seem a little more rushed than previous eps. Some people may like the fact that the pace is picking up, but it was too quick a change for me. The moments with Romeo and Juliet together were nice. Juliet's decision to put aside the Capulet name and start the rebellion as Crimson Whirlwind was good. However, they seemed to infiltrate and take Neo Verona too easily. I was sitting there thinking, if it was that easy, why hadn't they already done this? So, while there were a lot of good things happening in this ep. it seemed to lack some punch in the end. I could see where I was supposed to feel it, but it just wasn't there. Also, I really don't like the Willy character. That's a bit too presumptuous for me and although this part with using the play as a rallying point for the people was good and his harboring of the Capulets has its place in the story, every time I see Willy my eyes roll...

Great episode, I was kind of hoping she would stay as the red Whirlwind for a bit more, but I suppose the truth had to come out sometime.

Yeah, I thought this was a pretty good episode. :) I don't have much to add to the comments already made, haha. It was cool Juliet led a revolution, rebelling against the Duke's rule in general, rather than some rat-hunt against the Montagues specifically.

Now where is Tybalt, what role will Mercutio play, and how will this battle span out over five more episodes...?

I wasn't too impressed. Actually considering dropping this one. Finally something is happening, but the whole story execution is wishy-washy and rather unintereseting. I am not too pleased. The romance is also sloppy and shallow, in my book, and does nothing to affect me emotionally. It's just...there. I suppose if Romeo had a more likeable personality by not being Mr. Perfect all of the time, it might be better, but eh, he's like cardboard.

Question. How did the people of Neo Verona know about the attack so quickly? Does word of mouth travel faster than dragonhorse? I ask this under the assumption that they left after the play, of course. Unless they wanted the Prince to hear of the attack and mass his soldiers in the wrong area? Also, I'm surprised Romeo and his band of criminal miners aren't in on the attack. I would have thought they'd be chomping at the bit to have Montague overthrown so they could return to their families in Neo Verona.

It was nice. Finally the story is moving forward so I liked it. And I also loved the fact that the Red Whirlwind is back. Well, this thread is full of detailed comments and I agree with most of them so I guess I won't write anything else this time...

Revolution!!
There is like 2 weeks delay in my recent reading list
I randomly bought discount/second hand manga with cute/mysterious cover.

I loved this episode. From the red whirlwind showing up in the play to the start of the revolution. I caught myself grinning when everyone found out the red whirlwind was Juliet lol.

This episode was both good and bad, it’s nice that things are starting to move forward but this episode felt messy; too many things happened so quickly when that last couple episodes had a very lazy pace. The revolution is working out too well for my taste. It took them around 7 minutes to completely defeat the majority of Montague’s army. The revolution could have taken at least an episode to win the battle. But we finally made it to the end game so that’s good. I can’t wait to see the ace Montague is holding up his sleeve.

ohhh, things are happening! :) I was really expecting Antonio to get hit by the arrow that took out her hat, and if it had happened I may have had to drop the show right there. But I am happy, can't wait to see how this turns out.

Finally, Juliet has just learnt from her beloved Romeo that there will be a hope that can be created by her own hands. Anyway, let me recite again the best quote from Juliet or the Red Whirlwind: "The Grand Duke doesn't govern the Neo Verona. The people do." That's one of the best things I've ever heard as far from this episode. :')

I didn't expect her to show up as the Red Whirlwind at the end lol.

I like William in it, he's funny.

This anime is closer to being a Fire Emblem game story than a Romeo & Juliet adaptation
