| Everyone seems to be getting brainwashed by that Bara Suishou >_> |

| It is interesting to think of Rozen Maiden as a sort of analogy to God/humans; we were created perfect, but fell short of His expectations. Although of course, I'm not saying the analogy holds well, since God did not order us to play some sort of "Alice Game". Instead, He sent His Son Jesus to die in place of us, allowing us to have a relationship with Him again. Also, none of the dolls remember clearly what "Otou-san" looks like, but they all picture him as a being enveloped in light. I really wonder what's going to happen next; will one doll vanquish the others and become the perfect Alice? Or will the show end with them becoming friends and not completing the Alice game? I find it strange that Bara Suishou is still in communication will the doll-shop owner and Rozen. |

| Finally the plot is starting to move along. I have a ton of questions that need to be answered. |
| Why do i have a feeling that Barasuishou is making everything so that she wins easy .. Rozen is a bit*h and the dolls need to realize that ... |
| Poor Souseiseki being manipulated like that. =[ |
| I want the fight now!! |

| I think that there may be some non-lethal way to become Alice. Like, they all lend their Roza Mystica to Shinku and she becomes a perfect being and heals Suigin Tou's sick girl. |

| There is like 2 weeks delay in my recent reading list I randomly bought discount/second hand manga with cute/mysterious cover.  Use Personal Blacklist extension in Chrome if you just want to Google for a series synopsis, without google slapping MAL score in it. 3/1 |
| That glass guy in the doll shop is the real culprit. |

| Souseiseki is epic i loved her darkness... its sad though if she ends up losing... X{ anyway i loved the epi |
 |
| Good episode. Maybe some of them will die. |
 |
| I don't know if they did this on purpose but the version I watched had two endings. |
| I like Hentai, you like real life. Instead of complaining about my tastes, be grateful you now don't have to compete against me. |
| Drop/On Hold for now |

| 5/5 Episode wonderful, we proceed on the right foot. Dark clouds are gathering on the future of the seven sorelle.Bara manages to cleverly circumvent the hearts and minds of those who are in a panic and doubt. Fabulous plot, if you can read between the lines, dark storytelling and loads of feeling, there is also so much a slice of life. I like it too! : D Drawing very well finished. Growth of the collective palpable and well illustrated. These last few episodes will be superb! * _ * This Träumend is much higher than the first season. |

| I find it really creepy on how you make dolls. Souseiseki makes her decision that she will take part of the Alice Games. Alright episode. |
| Noooo Souseiseki D: I emer what this plan Bara-suishou and the doll guy have... |

| that scene where Father was telling Jun about what happens to dolls when you stop loving them is the scene that inspired the Nier series no doubt about it |
| There's something about 2000s storytelling that I like. I'm not that well versed in literary analysis so I couldn't exactly pinpoint what I mean, but this episode - in particular the conversation between the puppetmaker and Jun - is a great example of what I'm saying I like. Granted, it's not as if I watch a lot of post 2020 anime, so maybe the judgement that said type of storytelling is less common nowadays is an erroneous one. The plot thickens even more. If this goes as I expect it to, I'd think the Alice Game will develop with just 2-3 big battles, it'll be over quick. As always I liked Shinku's characterization here, I'd like to highlight her reaction to Souseiseki's announcement. Same goes for Jun, actually, you can tell what he said was developed based on his conversation with the puppetmaker and with what has happened in the entire plot of Rozen Maiden thus far. I wonder what the answers of the mysteries the series has laid out are. |
