Well, seems Sophie and Sword are getting along better now.

I have to admit, that is one badass Nun. Unfortunately, she got overwhelmed by such a dreadful looking Horror. Ugh. I know Sophie is trying to help but I'm not impressed.

Can't wait to see more Luke in action.

Are they pulling fallout 4? I bet that Sophie's brother is the creator of El Dorado

The plot is picking up. El Dorado has been picking people up and sending them out the city. Sohpie was helpful in this episode again. It's a shame she saw the sister get killed right in front of her. The sister was awesome. She was able to hold her own against a Horror. This Dark Knight guy is strong and needs to be stopped.

Welp, that was sad, RIP Nun... So the plot is moving towards El Dorado now, I wonder who that Dark Knight might be, he seems quite powerful

Another good episode. We finally have the plot steering towards what El Dorado is and in turn the badass nun gets killed, rip. Also that dark knight looking dude seemed like Luke at first but really he just looks like a more buff version of him.

Excited for the next episode.

That was phenomenal, the best episode yet and people need to lay off Sophie, she's an innocent kid caught up in all this madness, we shouldn't be expecting her to suddenly break out some sick moves to use against horrors; that would be dumb and unrealistic, her reactions in this episode felt realistic and very emotional.

Now this is more like it. Finally getting serious here after a few irrelevant horror-centered events in the past episodes that I couldn't care less about.

The nun was awesome. Too bad she died.

From Internet chatter we learn that El Dorado is believed to be a place where happiness can be found. Sword pursues a tip that leads him and Luke to a hideout where numerous people are being held captive, perhaps as food for horrors.

A horror named Pawn, disguised as a kind of representative, offers Sophie's orphanage a deal on a camping trip. The head sister dutifully accepts. Impatient, and apparently hungry, Pawn tries to collect the children sooner than expected, initiating a face off against the sister.

I suspected that Master (or Dark) Knight was the main villain since he was so damn menacing, and yet now we learn that there's someone even above him—his master, the king of El Dorado.

It was sad how brutally the sister was taken out. I would've liked to have seen more of her bad-assery. She was a great character.

5/5

The dark Knight looks suitably badass.

Sexy nun died waay too soon for my liking.

Sad day ;A; The Sister was so friggen BAMF! A shame she had to be taken out like this ;'<

We're finally getting further into the plot...

and is the Dark Knight Luke's dad?
I recall him saying "you can't inherit the armor like this" or whatever in the previous episode so I'm just 8'V

Poor Sophie ;U;...
Can't wait for next week's episode!

I'm pretty sure that not only that Dark Knight is Luke's dad, but he's also already a horror as well, similar to Bernando in the first anime series. Maybe the event from three years ago mindbreak him from overprotecting (his son?). Anyway he's very hot, in his human form at least, as there is no single sexy horror appear in the whole franchise yet.

Looks like things are finally starting to pick up after an episodic beginning. That nun was unexpectedly badass, too bad she was killed. It was impressive how she was able to stand her ground against a Horror.

This Dark Knight guy looks and seems pretty cool tbh. He's a piece of shit for killing the nun, but I bet he's also a badass. I agree with what others are saying here, based off of his looks he's probably Luke's father (or just related to him in some way), and his master, the king of El Dorado, is probably Sophie's missing brother.

Sista!!!!!! ;-; sad times for Sophie...

Even though she lost big time it seems like she's one step closer to finding her brother.
I'm glad sword was able to save her but I wish she could have done something herself to help out Sister.

I hope that Sword realizes Sophie needs combat training if she's going to be in danger this frequently, it would be a shame if she just stands around like a bumbling fool during every action scene.

Ohmygod. How dare they killed the nun? Noooo. Poor Sophie. And the nerve of that guy to named himself after Batman with the "Dark Knight". Lmao. RIP, best nun! Jesus. And idk what's the relationship of that Horror with that 'Dark Knight'; I thought they're working together, but he killed him. Lol.

I wonder what on earth is that El Dorado, and suddenly that Dark Knight talks about his 'Master' which is the King of El Dorado. What if that King of El Dorado is Sophie's brother? Oooohh. Haha.

That Horror is terrifying, btw. The way he ate that lady in the first scene. Damn.

Idk how many times I confused that Dark Knight with Luke. It's the hair, maan. Haha. Gomen!

5/5. <3

"ELDO NET" huh looks like the horrors are going digital this season, maybe el dorado is in cyberspace

Did not expect the nun to die like that, which in my opinion is good writing

also did not expect lukes dad to come as a villain, no wonder luke would rather be an alchemist than a knight,

It also looks like Sophie's time not fully integrated into the world of makai is over, but if her brother is on team bad guy (which i kind of suspected he had a creepy smile when he was talking to her and came off as someone who would try to use the power of darkness to make him and his sister happy) thats going to give her conflicting loyalties

Now we actually get into the plot, in the next few episodes we will know what El Dorado is. Sister, you were brave but you were overwhelmed, rest in peace, you were badass. This Dark Knight is intriguing, I want to know what your relationship with Luke is.
More intriguing is the way Sophie was approached about going to El Dorado instead of being kidnapped like others, she was CALLED and this gives us the margin to speculate (or even affirm) that the King of El Dorado is Sophies's "missing" brother. The things are getting frightening

RIP Nun, she was really badass and tried to protect the children until the end but she was overpowered. Poor Sophie having to witness all of that. The next episode seems promising, I have my suspicions for various things so I hope we get an answer by the next week.

Knight is really awesome and an enemy who doesn't hesistate long,but acts instead.

Definitely the best episode so far and I'm hyped for more.

Fuck yes this was fantastic and what i had been hoping the show would turn into soon. I just really hope this guy isnt a mid boss and will actually be a major to main antagonist going foreword. I highly suspect sophies brother to wind up being the main antagonist overall though.

Well, this was a sad ep. Noo, Sophie's "mother" died. Nooooooo, poop nun. But I got to say she have guts and skills to fight a horror so bad. Expect for Garo knights, nobody have come this close in combat with a horror.


So there are dark knights now too. I think we saw them in the 2nd season too, but I not quite sure. Next ep. will be a bit drama because of the nun's death. I wonder how Sophie will get over it. It must have traumatized her. :(

Yeah, me too actually. But that's not the main boss. I think probably he works for the king of Eldo Rado (which highly possible is Sophie's brother).

yeah it will be, but I like when shows have multiple main antagonists, though this guy will likely be a mid boss or something but who knows maybe he'll be a major threat going foreword.

This episode surprised me. I was not expecting the nun to die. I had a strong suspicion that the nun was actually the villain.

Garo often pulls this plot twist of having a seemingly innocuous recurring character turn out to have been the main villain all along (original series, Yami o Terasu Mono, Zero Dragon Blood), so I have begun to anticipate this kind of thing. I had my scope set on the nun, but evidently I was wrong.

Now, as others have said, I believe the King of El Dorado will turn out to be Sophie's brother.

I hope we find out more about WHY the nun was such a badass fighter, though.
