She's aliveeeeee. I'm glad Shinku is back to be honest.

For some reason, I feel sorry for Suigintou a bit this episode. Maybe it's because the situation with her master or something. I kinda liked their bonding moment. Oh and I'm glad they wrapped up the play well.

Really glad that the Megu scene seen in last week's preview was just a flashback, and it seems like Episode 13 is the last episode afterall.

The extra scene with Hinaichigo is really cute too.

So earthquake struck Fukushima again !! What a surprise in the trailer.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Didn't imagine Hinaichigo would show up. Glad she was not annoying to my ear. Also didn't imagine Shinku would be revived that way.

Wonder where Suiginto was headed. Looked like Kirakisho was not dead. Looking forward to next episode.

Well yeah, M6 I think. Oh well, they need to seriously get their act together and fix the problems at the plants.

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

It's a shame how little traffic this show gets. It's arguably the best and most faithful adaption of the manga and yet barely anyone bats an eye towards it.

Aw that parting between unwound Jun and everyone :( but at least because of meeting everyone, he's grown through this experience. Suigintou is off to look for Megu while the others went with Jun. Feels really nostalgic to see Jun with so many doll cases in his room, although no Hinaichigo and Souseiseki instead. Lastly, ew, Kirakishou and her thorns, stop! Let's not destroy the peace they finally earned.

It was in a dramatic mode then they cracked a joke... that ruined it for me...

On the other hand I still kinda wished Jun and Saito would just get together already, does look like there is only 1 more episode left anyways.

Nice episode.

Really good conclusion for all these events.
Though it was sad seeing adult Jun being alone from now on. Nice farewell and kiss from Sou ^^
I hope he can at least end up with Saito soon.

Also seeing Kirakishou's thorns...? O_o Will she do something soon?

I wonder if they'll keep focus on adult Jun and if he'll have anything to do with the story from now on or we won't see him much anymore? The pv had him but it seemed like SOL stuff so I'm wondering if Jun (winded) will be the main character again whenever the story is involved now?

Good episode to say that I noticed in ending that after "day&night part" Shinku open her eyes under something looking like water surfence:

Pretty symbolic, I guess it symbolizes time in unwound world (up) and moment when she wake up in wound world (down)(current episode).

Such a great episode~

Looks like the next one is a bit of a cool off episode. Suigintou and Megu's scenes are always so depressing yet uplifting. It's a weird emotion.

It's really sad that Hinaichigo is seemingly gone for good...She was a great character

I really liked the Jun who didn't wind, hopefully he continues to get screentime throughout if another season is allowed to happen. I don't mind if it's just a bit here and there. Though, if there's a sort of conclusion for him, then I'm fine with his screentime ending too.

But, with Kirakisho still up and about, I do wonder if things will stay that simple.

This is sooooo much better than the other anime seasons (though Overture was pretty amazing, but that's probably just because it was Suigintou-centric). And I really really loved the animation/art style they went with~ It's just really really beautiful~

Well, one last episode left...

Question for manga reader.

Will Jun who didn't wind appear again? Gonna miss him.
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Shinku's back! But lol @ her bitchslap. Stay classy.

Suigintou really is the best doll. I loved her flashbacks with Megu. Although it's implied that Kirakishou is not really dead? My best guess is that the Kirakishou that died is the doll in the "Jun who did not wind's" world, and that the original is still alive?

It felt like a last episode to me. The next episode will probably be a filler.

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

Well done. It's a nice episode, especially with Shinku's trademark hairslap.

And, Suigintou realized the true nature of this Alice Game, which is why she didn't take Souseiseki's Rosa Mystica.

And aw... Hinaichigo!! I hate that we don't have enough of her this season.

Who wants to bet that Kirakisho will appear again later on? Be it next season or the last episode.

Anyway, this is probably the most decent episode. Speeches and emotions.

Gonna miss Hinaichigo, though.

The best is not just Shinku coming back, or Suigintou letting Souseiseki be, but also how finally grown-up Jun realizes he does not need a doll or need to make a doll to confirm anything about himself. He is ready to face the world and future with his will and inner strength now .

This is the first Rozen Maiden I've watched, initially mistook it for a remake.
Though, for an alternative, it's actually very accessible for newcomers, so far, it's definitely one of the better alternatives I've seen in general.
Looking forward to the final episode.

I agree. In my opinion Unwound Jun has the most interesting story in the series up to this point. I find Wound Jun too obnoxious (I know, I know, Unwound Jun WAS that Jun at one point), and the Alice Game really makes less sense the more they bring it up, as do all the other supernatural aspects of the series. It feels more realistic when it is grounded in plots like not fitting in or doing your best or something.

Hinaichigo finally got her time in the limelight for Zuruckspulen. Was afraid she'd be limited to no-line cameos from her circumstances. I kinda like how it turned out somehow that young Jun is Suiseiseki's master while adult Jun is Souseiseki's (temporary) master. Parting is always sad, but they both have to return to their respective realities. Would be crazy if both went the wrong way, but that's not gonna happen. Not with one episode left.

An even better surprise is Suigintou "lending" Souseiseki more "time" to remain as she is while she goes off to look for Megu. Gotta love how she never admits the nice things and remains so... tsuntsun. And again how she's far less villainous in this more faithful adaptation.

Looks like I was right about Kirakishou not being finished yet with those white rose vines appearing. Hopefully she gets a nicer end too, if she drops her crazy way of doing things... maybe even end up with adult Jun in the unwound world.

Hina Ichigo's voice! (^_^)

Shinku's second body vanished, but Wound Jun appears with Shinku's original body. Jun and Wound Jun wake up Shinku. And what else could have I expected other than a slap for both Jun and Wound Jun?

Suigintou lets Souseiseki keep her Rosa Mystica after learning more about the Alice Game.

That farewell was too sad. (T_T) I wonder how they'll end this.

Serie anything but evil is not the first impresses the right one.
For those who have not seen and sure to please those who have already seen, it will be an opportunity to review the story from a different perspective! ^ _ ^
Technically well done, perhaps the character design will be a little difficult at first, but eventually becomes enjoyable with the lines of the drawings for parts and never sketched. Costume design much more refined, animation and CG married well.
I hope there are more people in the future who will watch this production, because it deserves much more attention.
Also I want an animated yet another season! : D
I truly felt so much the lack of Hina Ichigo, the only part where we saw was priceless! T_T
