With the Deep Dragon's disappearance, Claiomh is assumed to enter the sanctuary through the Ayrmankar Barrier, and lives are at stake.

With Jack Frisbee breathing down on both Orphen and Majic, there is no time but to press on and pass the message. And with Majic gone, Orphen can fight the evil spirit without any restraints, though the latter has always lived for crime and punishment against his oppressors, that's his life. And Corgon speeding up Orphen's process of entering the sanctuary while doing it himself by choosing not to tell him, it's a real mystery.

To enter the sanctuary is to be ready for life's sacrifice...or that may be so to threaten Orphen from entering it. And through the guises of life, all movements from here on are danger zones, with Almagest targeted by the Demon King Corgon and the Thirteen Apostles' Isabella being outgunned at the spot.

For Orphen, there's only one way, but in.

Okay, I thought wrong. Book 20 is not summed down to 2 episodes, maybe 3? I mean, if book 20 gets 3 episodes, the End Of Kiesalhima novel, hinted at the climax pv, will last 1 episode and will be ultra rushed since it has the same(ish) lenght of book 20 (around of 200 pages), so book 20 either has 4 episodes and the closure will be a movie or a special episode or it'll be 1 episode long, and that'll be a shame. Nonetheless, this was a good episode overall, the end of it being this scene:



It's featured in the colored set of pictures in the beginning of the book:



This scene is in the last page of chapter XI:


 
So we'll either get a decent pacing for the finale or we'll get 1 and 1/2 episode for the finale and 1/12 episode for the End of Kiesalhima Novel... or what I stated above. Well, let's see what time will tell us. The adventure is coming to an end, I've been an Orphen fan for some 15 years and I always hoped for it to get new anime or at least, have the novels translated and I got both. Even if it's not the adaptation I'd like to have, and putting aside all my well known criticism towards it here at MAL, it's been fun to discuss this for 2-3 days at every week.

Next week Corgon will finally spill the beans about his strategy to save the continent but I'm already assuming that whatever he's scheming is not going to please Orphen.
I imagine that Azalie and Almagest also don't have the answers that Orphen want to hear.

Looks like Orphen was really prepared to kill or to die.

Unfortunately the actual model of the anime industries have a problem with these 12 episodes cour model, long novels, long mangas and anything that need a very complex construction will be fated to some 6/10 rating anime, because they'll rush and rush, only sometimes will be more than this 6/10 if have a amazing staff with a genious director and series composition.

I'm very happy to watch Orphen, sometimes the story have some little time skip and a lot of things happens in half episode like this one, but they work very well and link everything again to hold all the episode and narrative structure.

That sucks, they could actually make a lot of money with Orphen with proper budget. It's a different fantasy story to this whole lot of isekai, it's a breath of fresh air, although it's nearly 30 years old. I dunno if this is true, but I watched a video of someone saying that Kimetsu manga was going bad and the anime made it skyrocket.

He's Corgon. he's doing whatever he wants, just like he always has. Corgon pretty bad ass atm, not sure if he has a plan or just wild.

Are we nothing more than pebbles...
