| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- NOOOO dammit Noloty ;A; She was my last really favorite character. Though we don't know exactly what happened, that's for next episode... This war thing...man, what a twist. It's really building up to some dramatic stuff now. |
| GOD DAMMIT!!! My favorite character had to get herself killed. At least she'll be in the next episode. |
| Darn it! Why did she have to die? I was pretty ok with Volken dying and all. But why her!? She was so sweet... Ok she was kinda selfish, but her sweetness made up for all that. Hope Enrique does something awesome next ep and Hamutz should at least get one more awesome fight! Pretty |
| "Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise" |
| Well now we finally know that by the time this story ends there won't be anyone else alive. I had a thought. What if the former acting director was the governor of paradise? We newer found out what happened to him and maybe this could explain it. Anyway we will finally find out next weak and I hope Enrique kills him then. |
| The spring I met you, The spring without you. |
| Well, death is really no surprise in this series. It's almost taking a Basilisk like approach - here are your main characters, now watch them all die. I'm not really expecting many survivors by the end - maybe Mirepoc. I'd say she's the most likely to live out of the remaining characters. I just hope the story/plot ends up being satisfying, and not some huge let down after being so mysterious/confusing this whole time. |
 |
| I'm starting to get both excited and pretty affraid here. This episode was great and I'm so happy they take at least 2 episodes to finish volume 6...but it doesn't even look like it will end next episode. After what I know about the novel so far (curse those spoilerific blurbs on the books) Anyway, I'm just praying for an additional 13 episodes because I don't want to see the final 4 volumes pressed into 4 or 5 episodes. |

| Damn Noloty... |
 |
| Why Noloty? T_T |
 |
| The affect of the "dancing puppet(from the last episode)" really amazing.The Niku really got into revolting state. I forgotten what Lascal said, Noloty first die??I tought Milpoc die first,then Noloty ....I think i mistaken ...When i look back to episode 15,Actually lastly who die is Mirepoc and Matt....(it seem my memory ain't reliable at all ^^) The Church gain the upper hand ^^ Hope this time Hami will die ..... |

| Noloty's dead and the world has declared war on Bantorra. They just brought in twists like that so casually. . .I like that the writing is creative, but I wish they'd answer previous questions before going off on different tangents. It's again looking like they may not be able to pull off a smooth conclusion. Lascall dos still sounds like a boy. And called Noloty '-sama,' wat. Noloty drinking that whole thing of disease was badass, as was basically everything else she did this ep. |
| As the saying goes, "Only the good die young, all the evil seem to live forever". Still, after Volken, Noloty, Mirepoc and most probably Matt, I wonder what Hamyuts will do with only secondary characters alive in some episodes. Well, at least I wanted to watch some different this season and I guess I can't really go wrong with Bantorra, it's definitely an unusual - and great - piece of anime. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| And then goes Noloty. Behold, prepare for librarian massacre galore soon! Place your bets on the next deaths (and believe me, there will be legion)... |

| Seriously? You guys liked Noloty? I don't care about this "sweet" bullshit, she was annoying and naive. She's dead, who cares. Everybody is dying. I will place a bet on who will die next: that guy that sees auras, maybe? Or the anime-only characters? I hope it's not Enlike, I want him to stick around a bit longer. Anyway, I'm just watching this now to get a +1 completed series. Only 6 more eps and this shit is over. |

| so they just keep killing off anyone who might be a good protagonist... where will it end? and it looks like the librarians are going to war |

Jure said: First Colio, than Voklen and now Noloty... why are all the good characters getting killed just like that. I just hope Enlike doesn't die. Well maybe they are trying to stay real and show us that even the Oh so good guys die. And are usually the first to go |

Jure said: First Colio, than Voklen and now Noloty... why are all the good characters getting killed just like that. I just hope Enlike doesn't die. Well.. it's becuz they were fools? Coolio foolishly in love with a dead girl. Volken foolishy naive and obsessed with hamy. Noloty foolishy believing in.. the world? |
| Noloty. :< |
| Contrived. Yay, a country we never knew about now wages war on the library without any sense of development on that front. I especially love that Noloty's death is done this way: totally random, and at the beginning of the episode. This show just doesn't know how to make characters feel like anything more than empty vessels: except for maybe Hamyuts (and maybe Matt). People keep talking about the show killing off good protagonists. Correction: the show is killing of stereotypical would-be-protagonists. It seems to me like some people don't know what the function of a protagonist is, otherwise, they'd already know that the person most befitting of that title is Hamyuts. As I've said before, the only interesting thing this show does is how it treats her. Unfortunately, it's executed terribly with superficial pawns rounding out the rest of the cast, but that's how it is nonetheless. Hamyuts is the one person driving the story. She's the person the meats want to kill. She's the person who goaded Volken. She's the one who assigned Noloty to Enlike's case. She's the one who stopped the crazy ant librarian. She's the one who knows everything. How people overlook easily one of the most radical female leads in anime for idiots like Volken, Noloty, or Colio (all apart of the same brainless, cookie-cutter, trope category), and even fault her is far beyond me. |

| Well.. there goes my last favorite character. Was going to pick a new one but he'll just end up dying anyway. Guess I don't really care if the whole world explodes now. They can do whatever they want with this anime for all I care. |

Agreed, though I'll miss Noloty all the same. But, yeah...what a random, stupid death out of nowhere. |
| d'awww ;A; so sad to hear noloty is dead (my favs chara). next episode=moar actions |

| ...::never knows best::... |
| Nooo, Noloty too! I can't believe, my favourite characters die one after another. And I even hoped for some romance between Enlike and her:( |
 |
RinM said: I had a thought. What if the former acting director was the governor of paradise? Yeah, I thought about it too, but he seems a lot older than Photona/Fotona/whatever. And why would they call him Kachua instead of Photona? yamakasi said: Seriously? You guys liked Noloty? I don't care about this "sweet" bullshit, she was annoying and naive. I completely agree. She annoyed me x__X But I'm still kinda sad because I was hoping for Enrique/Enlike (seriously, what's up with the names here? xD) to end up with her. They were cute together. And now he's gonna be even more emo. But if Matt dies, then I'm gonna flip. Stop killing everyone already o.o Killing Mokkania and depriving me of Ishida's voice after...what, two episodes? was just cruel. Then they killed Volken and outed Nakamura Yuichi. What else? Mirepoch dies and Sawashiro goes off the list? ...okay, I just realised I care more for the seiyuu than I do for the characters. SAAAD. -goes to watch ep 21, hoping that they keep Matt alive- |

| N-N-Noloty D: N-noo D: Why'd they have to kill her D: Now I'm mad : | |
| Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile. Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(ﾟДﾟщ) Nope™, probably not. |
| I'm too shock to cry about this... It's too hard for me to swallow... ;_; Coz aside from Hamyuts, Noloty was one of my faves. I was fine with Volken dying...I had foreseen he would...but Noloty? Why? ;A; Well...as long as they don't kill off Hamy or Matt or Enlike, then I guess we're good... But what am I saying? That could be impossible... Well, I'm gonna watch and finish this so I can find out. /crosses fingers |

| I already knew Noloty was gonna die. Anyway I like how this series is not afraid of killing off characters; it's awesome. |

| I didn't expect her to die so soon, she was only an apprentice. Atleast her death gives us PLOT! I'm still waiting to take sides on any of the other characters. |
| Does anybody know who voices the little Girl version of Lascall Othello? |
 |
| This series is not good for my heart. sigh sigh At the end, the world will end. |
| Oh my god!! They killed Noloty!! YOU BASTARDS!!! |
| I have a feeling Enrike's gonna rape everybody's faces and then die in the end. |

Kurini said: This series is not good for my heart. sigh sigh At the end, the world will end. I remember your comment from the last episode. -pats back- There there. It's just going downhill... What happened?? I don't mind that they killed off my favorite character of the show, but... I think the animation changed a bit... the fight between Enlike and Noloty was weird. Noloty lacked awesomeness this episode too for whatever reason. |
| Fast paced episode... but why did they killed µof Noloty so easily and without proper scene... this doesn't follow up at all with the last episode! |
 |
| Everyone is falling one by one and Hamy and Matt conspired to make it happen, and now they are in the middle of a war. Kinda serves them right. |
