Man, don't you just hate it that Salmon ain't done being a baddie and now it seems 2 more becomes the baddie. I hope Mashiro doesn't kill Yoshino, and I also hope that a Yoshino and Hakaze arc goes on.

wasn't it a little too convenient for the mage of Exodus to coincidentally meet the mage of Genesis at a train station?

If this were any other anime, I'd say you're right. But it seems like events in this world are more or less directed by the two trees. With the Tree of Exodus now sealed, the Tree of Genesis predominates -- and it might be its will to let them meet, perhaps for the reason that it wants Hakaze to kill off Hanemura. I can absolutely be wrong though.

Anyway, it feels like more and more mysteries are being stockpiled on this series. If Hanemura is the Mage of Exodus, then Yoshino cannot possibly be. Still, it always feels like Yoshino hiding something. Though I can't imagine Yoshino being a final boss or something, there's a lot to be dug out. Great episode overall.

I think that Yoshino can be the Mage of Exodus but I think it's very unlikely that he killed Aika, he really loved her but who knows?! Maybe he had a reason to did it.

LOL Hakaze tsundere mode is really funny and cute at the same time.

And the most interesting thing at this moment is Yoshino's secret about being Aika's boyfriend, the only person who knows this secret is Eva. Who knows what will happen when everyone will find out it?! Damn I can't wait!

Haha, Hakaze's kick on the new mage, she's so protective of Yoshino.
Gah, what's gonna happen when everyone finds out that Aika was Yoshino's girlfriend? :c

Now if i'm the tree of Exodus, I would probably choose a mage of Exodus that is a little more umm well threatening and cut-throat.... but thats just me.. I feel like if he killed a fly he would be sad..

I like the first op better...

Everyone seems to be fond of Hakaze but I really hope it turns out that Samon is actually a woman, because he looks pretty damn attractive with a ponytail. He kinda reminds me of Touko Aozaki from the Kara no Kyoukai movies

...anyway, this episode was okay. As for the OP, I liked the previous one better, but this one is okay too.

So they think Yoshino may be the mage of Exodus? Samon's theory makes sense, but I think that mage they found is actually the one.

The OP was pretty good!

I don't think the new guy is the mage of Exodus, nor even Yoshino. This is just based on the fact that they "figured it out"/discovered it in the way they did. I still wonder if Aika is behind all of it.

How anyone can like the Engrish disasterpiece that is the first OP is beyond me. Yeah the beat is kinda good, but the lyrics, jeeze. A grade schooler could do better. I'd DL an instrumental, though.

But anyways:

Those who are concerned about the costume thingie in the OP, no worries, you'll see why later :D

As others said the Op is clearly worse than the first one.
And wtf was that Power Ranger thing in op? This show is awesome playing with words and mystery psychology and shit better not turn to some overpower fighting ala Bleach with Power Ranger dudes.
So now we have a romantic aspect too. Lol Hakaze worrying about his girlfriend. If she only knew.
So if Yoshiro could be the mage of Exodus then this new guy isn't or was Samons hypothesis about Yoshiro completely wrong?
And the question of who killed Aika still remains. Could Yoshiro or even Mahiro killed her and not remember it?

Man I must be really slow. I'm not catching on even rewatching the end of ep. 12 and OP2...

I personally thought both OPs are pretty great in terms of fitting the tone. OP1 is meant to be more motivational as the two start on their journey whereas OP2 is now taking on a more somber tone because the world's changed and nothing's certain anymore.

But as to the figure you're talking about in OP2, it looks like the guy who comes out of the smoke is the Mage of Exodus because he/she is covered by the red glow. I'm pretty sure this series won't turn into power fighting, although fighting will probably become more regular from now on.

I can assure you that it's not what you're imaging, those fights are part of some scheming and it won't be like your typical shonen fights. They won't even take that much of screen time, after all this is a manga about talking and talking.

A friend who has actually read all the way to the 40's in chapters(he knows Japanese)assured me that wont be the case, according to him some mind fucky shit will be going down in the good way, though i dont know if hes referring to post chapter 22 stuff cause thats as far as this anime will reach

No im with you, i dont know why i just get the feeling this series will not do to well

Who knows maybe fujioshi's while albeit very annoying, may do to this series what they did to tiger and bunny, ship the 2 male leads so much that it attracts a shit ton of them and gets the show extremely popular.

Like thats actually a legit possiblity

Lmao Samon spends a couple of mins explaining his theory on the Mage of Exodus and it gets debunked just like that with a simple phonecall.

Loving this new Hakaze <3. She's being so cute with her crush on Yoshino. Dat jealousy and tsun-ness in that bathroom. I know I am gonna really enjoy watching this relationship grow as the series go on. They look so good together.

I love this new OP as well.

I agree that the mood has now changed... It has become lighter. I think it is the calm before the storm.

I love Hakaze! I would love to see her relationship with Yoshino grow. I think he's too blinded by his lost love that he won't notice for a while if at all.

The OP seems to have replaced Aika with a lot more Hakaze. Also seems like errbody be sporting different looks now.

Lol. I thought Hakaze was a refined, princess type of girl, but she was pretty girly when thinking about Yoshino in the bathroom. A little spiteful too, haha.

Megumu reminds me of Shu right now...which is bad...I hope he turns out to be much better than Shu later on.

Lol'ed when Samon was discussing about the possibility of Yoshino being the mage of Exodus and then getting a call from said person, telling them they found the actual one. Well that fucked up his whole plan that he laid out this whole episode. Lawl.

So Hakaze really fell in love with Yoshino, hope we can see a nice couple here.. Yoshino just has to get over Aika, even if it is hard to get over someone who died while you loved that person..

And I also wonder when Yoshino's secret of being Aika's ex-boyfriend will be exposed and how Mahiro reacts to it.

I wonder if I'm the only one who found Hakaze really annoying this episode. I mean, we knew she had somewhat of an aggressive personality from before but she was coming off as somewhat of a bully here.

Also, don't like the new OP much.
