Lol, not going to lie, some of the character rivalries in this show can get a bit amusing even if they were meant be taken seriously.

And damn, Tao Ren did not hold back in that fight. He went all out not holding back with an ambition.

The directing of episodes is bad. They jump from one thing to another for no reason. Or they leave you that feeling

It's obviously the manga pacing rushed to oblivion, it's already very clear that the reboot is aiming to finish the manga in one go from start to finish.

Direction and pacing continue to be quite mediocre...

On other news, Hao sure was rocking that white shirt and Pantene hair, huh? Truly fabulous~

It's clear that Hao is out for the killing, but his followers are awfully brainwashed to the point of support.

The last thing I'd expect to see is Yoh having tea with Hao, just plain and simple of brothers' talk. But it's clear that the talk was literally going nowhere, and now it's just taking sides to the Five Warriors vs. Hao, and none the more definite with Tao Ren wanting to win over Yoh with his Talk no Jutsu.

It's time for Team Funbari Obsen vs. Team The Ren, and there's no holding back...except the fact that Yoh had bitter coffee with Hao because he has no friends, it's more a provocative comment to help the enemy, for friends exist as enemies also. And indeed, both Horohoro and Tao Ren came back from Hell re-energized and ready to take any beating, which what Yoh is going through now.

All I want for this point is to finish both the anime and manga the way it should be...more than anything.

No he didn't... he had a sweet latte. He literally thanked Thalim for it (dude was surprised so chances are he made the wrong drink by accident). Hao never realized Yoh wasn't drinking the cappuccino he'd ordered for him, and was probably fooled by other insistent thoughts in Yoh's mind, which he mentions in a later scene.
So yeah, Yoh isn't as much of a child as Hao thinks.

I wonder if Hao just put a shirt to enter the cafe, if so thats some weird moral compass.

Even if is Hao say to a whole audience that he doesn't have friend is too evil.

Ren with all his monolgues not having a real variation is so stagnant.

Surprisingly, only 6 chapters adapted this episode. Usually, they adapt 7 chapters in an episode.

Yeah, apparently there's only one person working on fansubs now, so it's probably gonna be slow from here on out.

and suddenly they are lighting up the pace? it's not that i'm complaining, but i don't understand the nature of this adaption already. it would be better if they would decide how to pace it, but you just can't feel the connection in the story anymore.

as for the yoh vs ren teams fight, i feel i don't believe in this battle system anymore. they aren't caring for deaths anymore, so they just don't care a all. lol
still though, for the little we had here, it was quite enjoyable.
they could spend little more on the animation though. why the only good animated battle so far was the first battle in the tournament? (chocolove first shown battle)

Anna shows the ghosts of the just-massacred Hanagumi what Hao really thinks of them.
Team The Ren. Is completely made up of members who've trained in hell. vs Funbari Onsen's with only Yoh who has done the same. The technique Yoh's developed seems OP, but Ren and Horohoro have control over their actual respective elements, not merely fighting with spirits.
To explain why he had coffee with Hao to all those watching the Shaman Fight, he mentions Hao doesn't have any friends. Is this psychological warfare? A campaign?

Not that hype of a fight. Plus, their oversoul evolve constantly.
