A lot of info dump in this episode. At least we know more about the cult. I want to see how the others, like Delta, will fight against their leaders.

This show is turning into such boring garbage. There's literally nothing but infinite waifus doing some OP crap. Which part is supposed to be comedy? That single scene of fake boobs getting sliced? Assuming side effect of drugs was getting bold? Who wrote these jokes, a 10 yo?

A bit lost on this episode due to suddenly being subjected to a LOT of info dumping

I did get the part about the Sanctuary basically being the Cult's fortress but the memories part is damn confusing

It took me a couple of rewatches, but it's worth the effort I think. Plus Delta & Epsilon...

A giant door follows Cid, and he enters it. We finally get to see the story behind the possessed.

I'm a bit surprised by the amount of information we got in this episode.

Aurora is a fun character. I like the interaction between her and Cid.

Wait so… everything that Cid ‘made up’ is true?! He’s either really lucky or there’s something going on with the fact that certain things he says come true.


The sanctuary has piqued my interested not just because of all that was revealed there but because it looks like a modern facility and the workers are wearing modern clothing. I’m wondering that’s going to be important later on

So far the story was pretty simple, but it looks like starting with this episode it will get a bit more complicated. They explained everything quite nicely though. Seems like we'll see Delta in action next time, looking forward to it.

Lookin like it's getting more complex as the show goes on which always makes it interesting. Aurora the witch is a fun character and loved the interaction between her and Cid.
It looks like we'll get to see some Delta action next episode yeesh!

This episode was interesting! The Cult of Diablos seems to had advanced technology and modern clothing and architecture too. They even had floating monitor screens.

Too bad Aurora will disappear soon though

Really great anime, I didn't expect they will show such a deep backstory, it might be perfection, with only few flaws like weak OP/ED songs.

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

so we're finally gonna get some real plot. And yet again as I said before, showing that Alpha is the true leader of shadow garden lol. Diablos is huge

Auroras voice tho, i loooooooooove it. She's almost taking best girl from Alexia 0o Shame shes yet another cup DDDD char^" Too bad yet another amazing girl that's gonna disappear. I guess the only way for our female to actually stay in the show is for her to be completely without any personality

edit: yep episode 13 also showed she's the best girl. She actually has the personality of someone that was stuck for at least Thousand Years I love it. She's actually realistic unlike the others.

Ancient sanctuary it's called but it looks very futuristic. Also poor Nelson, he's supposedly an ageless immortal but he's bald and looks old due to stress lol

Shadow Garden finally show up and they aim for the sanctuary dimension. All I will say is exposing those breast insecurities is a one way ticket to your funeral lol Rose and Alexia join in on the operation in the Sanctuary. They find out that the old man has been distorting the historic hero with a false presentation. The enemies Cid made up are finally coming true and the Shadow Garden shenanigan is becoming more and more of a necessity to create a balance in the dark society. Episode was decent, yet again they find the enemy hiding within.

It seems like they were experimenting with the goal of immortality, the Bead of Diablos being the main ingredient.

This is the biggest lore drop of this show's entirety thus far, I enjoyed this episode a lot!

Having Alexia and Oriana follow along is a great addition, they are the future of two separate kingdoms and having them know the truth of the Sanctuary, the hero Olivier and the objective of the Diablos Cult would be beneficial.

As always Cid is elsewhere NOT with his Shadow Garden subordinates, in fact I'm almost certain he still thinks of the Cult as a made-up fairytale when in reality it's real. I wish he actually attempts to sort out the things he know and didn't know and actually learns of what his subordinates are actively trying to learn.

Cid didn't gave a second thought when it came to freeing someone who's in a restraining jacket for a millenia lul. Beta's acting is as good as Delta getting information :P

Some massive lore drops in this episode. This changes a lot. Tho like Cid, I don't really care about all that. Also, that sanctuary is supposed to be like a modern facility? This show has no consistency. I wish it'd at least try to make the locations look more unique instead of so bland.

I knew Epsilon was insecure about her boobs. But I didn't think she'd be flat lol. She overdid it with the slime. I think she's fine as is.
