Ugh, that transformation is disgusting

Otherwise, we get ...Mio/Maria/Yui x Basara time but with the shitty KEEP OUT censors. Oh wait, they are just illusions. Poor Mio though and lol, Maria's mother showed up.

Well Takigawa sure was helpful this week saving Maria's mom and confronting Zolgia. Despite her emotional outburst Mio seemed pretty much in control against Zolgia while talking with Basars. Things appear to be wrapping up nicely. Now they just need to erase this creature's core and share the night the next episode title mentions...humorously censored no doubt. :D

Reaction for the Episode:

Damn it I wanna punch and beat that fucking old geezer Zolgia to death!
Fuck that censors it's really ruining the good parts! (Well that's the way they sell this things)
And shit why another cliffhanger after another. Well I guess it can't be helped since it's gonna end.
I wonder what will happen in the next episode next week? I wish it's gonna be good.

Well, Basara was pretty damn ineffectual this episode. And for all he knows, Mio killing Zolgia will give her a memory she will cherish for the rest of her life and he just deprived her of that. People are different.

He better get his act in gear next episode, or he'll no longer be worthy of the status of harem master.

Well I expected Basara to do something cool in this episode but I'm more than happy to see that it came from Mio instead. I wish that they let her kill Zolgia thougj, and I really want to see more of Mio using that power

I didn't expect to see that Maria's mom was a loli thought lol and damn that hallucination that Basara had was hot. I'm glad to see that is friend is alive too :)

LOL!!! Okay i'm I the only one who was laughing at the censorships? But what really may me laugh was the part when Basara saw Maria's mother Shella, Kurumi, and Chisato in his orgy imagination. I was like damn Basara? I understand of you having that kind of fantasy with Mio, Yuki, and Maria but with Kurumi, Chisato, and Maria's mother too? Also I knew that Lars was not dead because that will be way too easy and he's too cool to be killed. Anyway next week is the final episode and I'll be looking forward to it along with Trinity Seven OVA! This was a decent episode.

I thought it was self-evident. If Mio avenges the brutal murder of her parents, then perhaps the memory that she has done so will give her some comfort later in life.

Only 1 episode left.....Huh Man i havent felt so good watching a new Harem, Ecchi series as it aired since DXD..... It is really one of the better one that have come out in recent years and considering how much this genre is so overused and so much cliched in these modern times that is saying something.

If it wasn't for the censors it would be fantastic,,,well at least u can give them credit for trying different approaches to cover each scene and not always use the light of god or just cutting it otu and when the blu ray come out ,,,it would be worth re-watching,,,so it has rewatch value also....:)...it seems strange nobody has licensed the show isn't it when other lesser show have already. Hope for a S2 in the future...at least there is the ova to look forward too for now once it finishes.

Agree this anime is one of the better harem/ecchi animes I've seen because this one keeps me entertain. While this anime is keeping me interested other harem/ecchi animes like Absolute Duo and World Break Aria of Curse for a Holy Swordsman are kind of keeping me less interested.

I felt that it was awkward for Zest to all of a sudden be helping the gang (like how she was carrying Basara). I mean sure she was being treated poorly by Zolgia, but she was still an enemy of the gang and got beaten by them and almost got punished for it (although she was saved by Basara twice). I would at least expect there to be more emotional development or issues/hesitance with her as a result, before she started helping. For her to just get up (after being freed form her shackels) and start helping the gang like the snap of the finger felt too unnatural.

Basara couldn't do much against Zolgia after all. Instead, he was forced to hallucinate about having a sevensome. (Lol. is that even a word? If not, it is now). XD

That demonic aura of Mio was awesome though! Zolgia was probably pissing his pants when she glared at him. XD

Lars' demon form was awesome! Loved how he explained his ruses he pulled and baffled Zolgia. This guy is better than Basara, in some ways.

Zest sure is being helpful. Too bad, we probably won't see her having some sexy time with Basara..

Decent episode. So, who'll be the final boss? The creature they're inside now? O.o

Lol at Basara being completely overwhelmed and played with by Zolgia. He should just be grateful to Zolgia for letting him into a group sex hallucination.

Seriosly Takigawa is better character than Basara at all.

It's very rare to see a show where a loli has noticeably growing boobs, and even more rare to see that the mother actually has smaller tits than the daughter. Usually it goes wow...look at that daughter wonder what her mom looks like....BAM HOT DAMN!! Also kind of surprised Maria's mom is shit useless too and not super strong like her daughter.

Lars is the unkillable master. Can use puppet dummies, and outwits everyone. What a champ.

Well it's a good thing you said that.

In case anyone hasn't heard yet...Shinmai Testament is getting a second season in October 2015!!!! Not too surprising though, since preorders for this show were like, really fucking good. Like, wayyyyy better than anyone predicted.

What I really liked about this announcement, is the time gap. It's not a split cour like a bunch of shows are doing lately (Fate UBW, Aldnoah, Owari no Seraph), but it's an actual gap with an actual second season, not a cour. And the other good thing is, the season is coming out in less than a year. Which means less wait time, but long enough for the studio to produce something high quality and not something rushed to shit.

Haven't read the LNs, but from what I've seen online, what I'm looking forward to in S2 is:

It will actually do the opposite.
Nothing come out of vengeance other than hatred. Hatred from the people you exercised vengeance upon or hatred coming from their peers, it might also become self-hatred. I know this sound cheesy but in the end it is how it is.

Revenge give you a great feeling at first, especially if you believe it was deserved. Still, unless it is something trivial it is something you will likely remember for life. It is something you will reflect upon whether in a desire to make sure you were right or to try to understand how your actions might have affected innocents people negatively. No matter how justified something is, when it is done in the name of vengeance it loses it's meaning. Revenge does not liberate you from something, it binds you to it.

Great episode, and also fast, Basara suffering quite, Mio arousing her powers, and some new points in the plot that have left the story even better

I found a bit forced the beast appear at the end for changing the plot again, but I also like how the plot surprises me, leaves a good anxiety for the final episode

I'm liking the anime, and I hope the end is also the height, well, the manga and the LN sure I'll continue reading ..

The lewdness was so overwhelming, that even Basara couldn't handle it. And he has to do something similar every other day.

I can't really tell if I was expecting Maria's to be a loli as well or not... I feel like I wasn't until I saw her silhouette...

Well, I can't wait to see how things wrap up next week. Hopefully they all get out safely... And hopefully Lars can go ahead and kill Zolgia.

Well, to be fair, his deal with Lars stated that he would let him kill Zolgia. So it may have been a roundabout way of saying, 'Sorry, I've promised him to another man.'

A lot of BASARAAAA! yelling this episode. Damn mind control! Or hooray mind control for that orgy scene ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I don't really get Zolgea's plan.... so he was expecting Basara to come into the mansion with the help of Lars to rescue Mio and be subsequently captured by him? So was he expecting Lars to join forces and eventually kill him? Then why not make better preparations (like hiding Maria's mother better) in the first place?
Or did he just want his harem of Mio and Maria (seeing that Yuki only infiltrated later with Basara's gang)?

And was his initial plan to just rape Mio and make her spill Wilberts power out? But in that case, wouldn't it have been more effective if he'd just traumatized her by gibbing Maria's mother from the start, like even before the Demon Lord called him up? I mean, in the end that was what he mentioned as "his plan to make her release her power all along", right? Then he would have gone over to find the Demon Lord when he was already infinitely more powerful than him and could have taken over his position as the new Demon Lord, right?

Seriously, that part really didn't make much sense. It's not like he couldn't do the power transfer first before he left right?

And yes Basara was plenty useless this episode. In fact, if Lars hadn't had his own hidden agenda (which Basara knew nothing about, so he couldn't use that to convince Lars to help him), then Basara would have never had the opportunity to save Mio at all. And to put up such a pitiful display facing the pervert was hard on my eyes. I doubt it was his own plan to get his ass kicked and to fall under hypnosis, so I guess he thought he was better than Zolgear from the start...
I was expecting some sort of special trick from his Banishing Shift, or maybe Papa Basara to come in and save the day somehow, but in the end it was all Lars' puppeteering skills and the surprise of Mio's innate powers that actually saved the day.

He better get his shit together before the second season. I felt like they sorta billed him as the second coming of Jesus-Tatsuya when the show started, so to see him get his ass kicked to the point where he was hypnotized and put under some spell (which he got out only because Zolgear spent all his powers containing Wilbert + Mio's power, and then got burned by Super-Mio), was really disappointing.

One more episode, an OVA in June, and then then the best birthday present of a Season 2. Can't wait!
