I was hoping for that Cranberry vs Ripple/Snow White matchup. It sounds like the LN elaborates a lot more on things than the anime does? If so, I wouldn't mind giving it a read.

Clamberry would have won extremely easily that fight, and the result would have been Clamberry surviving, so no story to tell there. Like I said, there was no other choice nor possibility.

Well I would have been fine with that too. If Cranberry can make a goof against Swim Swim and Tama, then I'm sure it would have been possible against Ripple and Snow White. Especially seeing that Cranberry probably views Snow White the same as Tama, very inferior. All in all it was interesting, I just hate how Swim Swim got off easy against her lol

A transformation sequence? Nostalgic, but this late in the series? lol I never know what to expect in this damn show.

Her death could only be anticlimatic. If she didn't die this time, the story wouldn't be about this time, and if she died, that couldn't be after an epic fight, because she 100% win those against any of the first arc magical girls.

You know, I really liked that Tama was the one to kill Cranberry, but I still call BS on that fight with La Pucelle. He chopped right through her neck. She doesn't have magical invulnerablility like Swim and Alice, that should've been the end of her.

Huh, that was unexpected ... so Cranberry figures out Swim's weakness, light and sound and how convenient, she can manipulate sound :P Too bad she gets too focused on her and forgets about Tama, who digs a hole into her body ... LOL that was unexpected! Unfortunately she also happens to see Swim's real identity, so she has to kill her in response. She ends up being the new "Master" huh ... interesting! With her new powers she should easily be able to kill Ripple though. Nice to see Ruler taking the time to go through stuff with Tama too lol, I guess she has a nice side to her. Ripple remembering Top Speed ... aww man :( Seems like she's going after Swim so they'll cut the remaining 3 down to 2 ... well obviously one of them will die, then what happens to Snow White? Not to mention we get a transformation sequence?! That was unexpected XD Oh and also the bit at the beginning - so Fav just kind of "accidentally" let a demon go wild at a Magical Girl examination ...? LOL, interesting XD

Hmm that wasn't the neck at all, that was her torso/stomach. And La pucelle's sword wasn't able to deeply cut, unfortunately. saw how she was blocking La pucelle's sword with her bare arms earlier? yeah, she's quite tanky.
The amount of blood was very exaggerated too, I guess they wanted to make the viewer believe that La Pucelle actually won.

Not really possible. Clamberry NEEDS to die during this battle royale (she's actually the only one that 100% needs to die for the story to start) and SW's power doesn't have the ability to kill her at all contrary to Tama's ability.

she actually doesn't have to. It's only forbidden to have a normal person witness your transformations, not another magical girl or anyone already involved with the land of magic. SwimSwim here once again misinterpret and twist Ruler's word of advice (which was a good one : don't let anyone see you transform is indeed a good advice for many reasons) by resolving the problem by killing. SwimSwim has been doing that for a while now. if "there 's a problem, kill it".
"I can become a princess/ruler". But problem, I can't as long as Ruler is here -> solves the problem by killing her.
"I want to prove I surpassed ruler". But problem, Calamity Mary who was superior to Ruler doesn't come. Solution -> Kill Winterprison instead.
In a general way, SwimSwim's response to any problem and any teaching from Ruler or Nemurin is "kill/assassinate". I see a lot of peoples saying that poor swimswim isn't at fault and that she got twisted by Ruler. That's kind of wrong, as she's the one twisting Ruler's teachings. Ruler never taught her to kill someone in any of those situations.

The "if you can' t win fairly, don't play fair" was never supposed to be translated as "assassinate".

I kept thinking Cranberry wasn't dead, because when she was hit by Tama she didn't revert back to a human form. Maybe she did and I missed it.

Relying on something that give random luck to solve everything is an awful deus ex machina. + the rabbit foot isn't anything that powerful, to.

That is kinda what it's there for... to give luck to its owner when he/she is in a pinch.... So if Snow White was in a pinch, I don't think the writers would forget about their convenient plot device that they put into the LN or anime in the first place lol. And idk about you but i think a fight with Cranberry MIGHT possibly be considered a pinch for Snow White who doesn't have anything but said rabbit foot to protect her. I also don't really see where you get off saying it isn't that powerful... It may be bad writing to use something like that, but that's what it is in the show for.

No. When you put that kind of thing, you need to avoid making that luck to impactful to save the day in the story or this is just a deus ex machina, and therefore not an interesting way to use it for the reader, like I said before.

You are making things up now lol.

Idk what you are even trying to prove. That Tama was the only one who could defeat Cranberry?

All I wanted was Cranberry to destroy Swim Swim, whether you say it was possible or inpossible doesn't matter. I'll stop discussing this now since ep 12 is out and I don't want to spoil anything on here

OMG! the slaughterfest continues!
Who would have thought that the most useless Tama would be the one to kill the Overpowered Cranberry! Tama's hole ground digging is one of the most leathal ones. Too bad!
But Damn! This is what I don't like! Tama getting her throat slit by Swim Swim! damn you bitch! I hope Ripple KILLS you in the most satisfying torturing way!!!
I really didn't want the poor Tama to die. She's such a cutesy shy low self-esteem dog.
Looks like Fav even has trouble dealing with new "Master" since Swim Swim wouldn't listen to Fav.
Damn you Snow White Koyuki! Why are stopping Ripple on killing Swim Swim!?!? That the most right thing to do because she's the most collateral damage that has done to all other magical girls! Let Ripple KILL SwimSwim in order to avenge Top Speed!
The preview was creepy, the chime sounds suddenly break!
5/5!

Ruler was tyranical but backstory adds how caring she's to her subjects. Earlier as OL she had lots of passion to improve work, but blocked by her boss. She gets somewhat likeable even after death.
#Tamadidnothingwrong, expected but cruel to see it happen with 0 hesitation from Swim. Swim's messed up how she felt bad for Ruler & Tama death, but follows rules to a T (no Nemurin only suggested being princess, but all the rules she followed & quoted were thanks to Ruler. And she somehow equates princess to unique leader when they're quite different positions, and both are quite different from a mass killer).
Why bringing more feels reminding of Nemurin via Topspeed... nice moment Ripple bringing her home.
Swim needs to die but don't think Ripple avenging like that is a good idea. Agree with Snowwhite tho she's kinda useless so far. Surprising Cranberry's large shockwave didn't kill, then how can Ripple use "light & sound" stronger than that?

--edited--

It down to 3 because of uneccessary kill (Tama).

1. Nemurin
2. Ruler
3. La Pucelle
4. Magicaroid 44
5. Yunaelle
6. Winterprison
7. Calamity Mary
8. Top Speed
9. Sister Nana
10. Alice
11. Minaelle
12. Cranberry
13. Tama

Cranberry shouldn't have hesitated. It sucks, that she was killed by the dumbest character.

Swim Swim sure is ruthless.

Ripple is ready for revenge and Fav reveals Swim's weakness, because she doesn't play by the rules.

YES TAMA, YOU GOT CRANBERRY!!! Made a little scratch but that lead to a huge hole in her body like damn nice job Tama lol. I was super pleased when I thought Swim-Swim was defeated too (because she was untransformed), but then she turned out not to be dead and killed Tama because her identity was revealed??? WTF I was not expecting that o.o I was kinda indifferent towards Tama in the beginning, but after seeing her backstory I really felt for her :(

GO RIPPLE YOU CAN BEAT SWIM-SWIM!!! Although it looks like light and sound only untransform her, then you have to kill her. Will Ripple be able to kill a small child?

Wonder why we've only gotten transformation sequences for Snow White and Ripple. I think it would have been really cool to see all the other transformation sequences.

Cranberry can only sit down after being blown apart by Tama. Finally, her madness has ended. Good riddance.

although the death of Tama is very sad.. Swim does not know that she does not have to kill Tama. :=_=;:

Ripple seems to be able to talk with Top Speed spirit, before she went to the afterlife.

this final showdown is really not necessary. Ripple is like a soldier still trying to make war when peace is already achieved.. and Swim is not really a threat to civilians.
