Even though I’m a Kurumi fan, ofc ima be happy for her return but Tohka’s scenes on this episode really caught my attention and truly think she deserves it more than any other spirit to end up with Shido.

Tohka awakening with her soul intact whereas everyone has their Sephirahs stolen, of which their memories are part of it, which contradicts the entire reason why she is still clearly alive. Her Inverted self clearing things up for the real one, and at least Tohka has a reason to continue to fight back.

Mio wanting to redo her life with Shido (as Shin), even by taking his memories apart, and thankfully Tohka came to the rescue before it could be done, because she doesn't have a name, unlike Kotori and the other Spirits who already had theirs, including Mio for the fact.

Still, to defeat the Spirit of Origin is a huge task for the first Pure Spirit, and being able to have a portion of everyone's power is a huge power boost together with Halhanhelv, especially against the Mother. But within a split second, Mio trapping Tohka within Ein, the Angel of Nothingness, she's close to defeating Mio, but too far when it comes to skill and intellect, leaving Shido to fend for himself. Of course, Kurumi came in at just the right time with her 11th bullet Yod Aleph to send one of her clones to the future, as long as the Spirit Power resides within the bullet is enough to mimic the original...and even that wasn't enough. If anything, both Tohka and Kurumi gave enough morale and power for Shido to finally use Zaphkiel to send himself back to the past and rewrite history.

Excellent episode, it's time to rewrite history with a date with Mio/Reine.

Wow, that was definitely one of the best episode, so many revelations and turns out Tohka is a pure spirit and wasn't human like the others before, and the situation was absolutely desperate but Kurumi managed to send a clone in the future before dying, it just gave Shido the idea to go back in time before it happens and seems like he'll try to seal Mio using the good old date way?

The deaths continue to be sad, it's too much of a tragedy. And of all the ones to not get obliterated by getting donuted, it had to be Tohka. I'm sad that I don't get to hear more Kurumi speaking to herself, but tis the fate of humans with the power.

F Mio. Don't even dare talk about undoing everything from the beginning with your murdering spree. I don't even love Tohka like that like that, but at least she's knocking some sense into Shido.

She even gets to deal some damage to Mio. Props to getting a slash in there I guess, along with the fancy transformation.

Mio'a power is BS. F Mio. All hope was lost, I was in the pits of despair from Kurumi deprivation, and now she comes in to save the day. Thank you Kurumi, for bringing a ray of hope to this otherwise impossible situation.

Why do you do this to me, anime.. you tease me and then you play the no u take back card. Bring home the W Shido. Please.

Tenka making her reappearance for the first time since season 4, but this time it is because Tohka is in dire straits and needs her other half to push her to fight back against Mio. Tohka's efforts push Mio harder than any of the other spirits and her reward is getting erased by Mio's Ein...

Kurumi's 11th bullet, Yod Aleph, allows her to send herself (a clone) an hour into the future, so that Shido can finally use Zafkiel's Vav to go back in time to save all the spirits. It's a huge relief for him to see Tohka once again after losing her in the alternative timeline.

Tenka coming back to save the day, as Tohka is able to stall for Kurumi who then stalls for Shido to finally use Zafkiel!

I almost forgot the main strategy: date them.

What a nice twist.

Time to conquer Mio.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

It's so painful to watch even a clone of Kurumi die... Everyone tried so hard... Stupid Mio, I mean she has her reasons, but for me, they are stupid. Similar like Mukuro, I hated her reasons for messing up too! Thankfully Kurumi reminded Shido that he has zafkiel!!!
