Well, this episode got a bit creepy.
Interesting to see two new characters being introduced into this episode. (voiced by Shuu Uchida and Minami Takahashi)

I got a thrilling vibe from the episode just by the style from the first half. Some of the powers in their world really can be dangerous if not used properly. Those two new characters kinda scare me when they use their powers although it seems that Sana is immune to it.

Sana breaking their power was also an interesting sight to see. Attack of the giant santa XD

New characters! Hattori and Ayumi, with the former able to freeze and manipulate people like her parents. Those 2 are playing a dangerous game abusing such power. The unaffected Sana wasn't having any of their shit! Forget giant Santa, when you make Sana cry she deals with you with her fists! >:(

New characters appeared. Hatori has powers that can manipulate people. She ran away from home with her friend. Her powers can go in a large distance. Sana wasn't affected by it. She got very mad at Hatori. She even undo the magic. This is looking to be very interesting.

That was a surprising turn of events, thought we were going to a more SoL style but it seems I was mistaken.

Anyhow we got 2 new characters with one of them capable of manipulating people in a pretty huge area. Wonder what the range of her power is. Sana unaffected by Hattori's power decides to stand up the two new girls.

I'm guessing just like Sana is the Red Queen, Hattori is the Yellow queen? If so it might make sense why they're abilities were cancelling out I guess.

I'm fairly neutral towards the two new girls and I don't think Hattori is evil or anything considering she often feels guilty, it's probably more along the lines of her misusing her power to make her life easier.

This was a great idea, also shows there is a time that Ichijo would be better equipped to handle the situation than Sana, who just made things worse with her emotional out burst.

So introduced to two new characters Hattori and Ayumi who are probably going to be duel protagonists and antagonists of this arc, well Hattori at least, Ayumi might just be a protagonist. Interesting to see how they handle these characters. Minnie C was suppose to some what sympathetic character, and she ended up a very hated character, so let's see what they do here.

So if you use your people to make everyone a good person, that is good but also taking away their free will, which is kind of evil, so Hattoi is in a no win situation. She is a a young female Lelouch.

This episode in a way does give some credibility to the research facility and their believes. Someone with this power can't just go out freely without any supervision and guidance. I mean I am not saying Hattori should be locked up and put in a prison like they were doing, still a balance.

I wonder how strong Hattori is. she is at a stand still with Sana, which mean Ichijo is way stronger, but how about her and Minnie C, is she on that level at least?

Nope, this is going to a straight bad end, i'm fearing.

The whole magic breaking, Sana forgetting stuff randomly.

Hattori got a power that is insane. She wasn't aware of what it could really cause in the beginning, she's getting it now though when she saw someone unaffected by it and how much pain she caused to that person.

I hope they finally reveal just how it is that certain individuals can come into these powers. For the special agent, it manifested during her nap. For the new girl, it happened when she was praying to god. Does this mean that these powers can be bestowed onto anybody? What are the criteria for attaining them?

This is all so confusing.

Oh and Sana was sooooooo damn cute this episode! I absolutely love her reaction to squishing the green stuff and when she started hitting the new girl with her fists. Adorable!

Whoa, someone that has same or maybe stronger power than queen Sana? And she bring a friend too. But I believe she didn't really mean any harm while using her power at the city. Still, are they gonna be friend or foe?

Pretty interesting, I wasn't at all expecting Hatori's power to be on par with Sana's, makes you wonder what requirements have to be met to get the powers, and what determines the strength of your power. It may be something relating to the wish that caused their powers but I'd imagine Yonaga and Asahi would've had pretty strong wishes too, and they seem to have a lower caliber power since they were affected by Hatori's order.

I'm hoping to see Sana, Ayumi and Hatori get closer, especially Sana and Hatori.

Interesting to see more power users, but the way their abilities just randomly dissipated - cancelling each other out? - definitely seems ominous and can only be bad news going forward, just like the stuff with Sana's memories last week.

So basically how it goes is: Sana is the most powerful, as in she can do everything you could ever imagine, but has no knowledge of how or intention to use her power for good or evil. She just uses i for fun.

I don't think we should look at who is "stronger" as each of them have different magic. Some of them's magic is more suitable for combat such as Ichijo's. And then there is Hattori that could control and manipulate anyone except Alice. The most powerful is obviously Alice since she could basically do anything imaginable while immune to magic like Hattori's.

Gotta wonder about Hattori's power. First she started by speaking her mind, causing ppl to act how she was hoping. Then she switched to commands, stop, walk, etc. Her command power makes ppl vulnerable to others' suggestions as well ("Say something!" "Something" lol), so I wonder what happens if you leave your tv on.... Is it a global power? Does time freeze, or just the ppl she commands? Not rly expecting answers here as the show's focus is on the characters and not their powers. Hattori seems to have a lot more stamina than Sana, as she froze the whole town (I hope nobody was driving) and "fought" Sana, but only Sana collapsed from exhaustion. Maybe shokanjuu Santa costs a lot of mana.

The fairy tale rhyme was pretty good, right? I can't understand it without subs but I heard end-rhyme every other line or something. Looking forward to seeing how the dub pulls this off.

Good episode, but now we must be patient to find out what happens next week.

This brings us back to the "is Sana human question." Hattori is presumably human with human parents, at least as far as we can tell, the twins had a human father so we can gather they likely had a human mom, so why would Sana not be human?

So now we know who the witch is.

I thought it was actually going to be an evil scary woman who would be a new enemy but luckily it just some kids.

Those 2 will be a handful though, they are pretty powerful.

Given that Sana's power is basically the ability to do anything she can imagine, she is absolutely the most powerful. Her limitations right now come from being a child and not really knowing what she's doing or how to fight people. If she were an adult and had trained herself in the most effective uses of her power like Ichijo, she'd be pretty much unbeatable.

Hattori's ability to stop & control people is scary.

Poor Sana seeing Zouroko & everyone not moving must've been scary.
She got furious at Hattori & Ayu. Seems like their powers cancel each other out.

Gosh Sana is just one of the most annoying characters I think I might have ever seen in an Anime. Her inability to work things out in a logical fashion in just completely infuriating, and the times when it seems like she can think through things and when she loses that ability are just completely arbitrary.

These two girls are explaining their situation, and very clearly tell you they can't control their power, and your response is to go full idiot on them?! REALLY?! You know people that could help them.

Very strange change to the plot and it opens up a bunch of unexplained plot points but I enjoyed the story of the new characters and I'm interested to see what type of direction they take this new plot. It feels a little late in the anime to be changing up the story but maybe they will connect it somehow to the first portion of the anime.

Felt bad for Hattori's situation and her family life. I'm curious to see if she'll end up going down a darker route here. Either way, she's an interesting character and a good addition to the cast.

Oh wow, this new plot arc is cool. I was wondering what they were doing with this girl, i thought maybe she was from the past or something, but then bam she's just a new power-user.

I was pretty damn hyped when they ran into Sana... If only Sana wasn't basically anemic and with asthma, she'd have spanked those 2 good.

Powerful and hubristic magic-user thinks they're almighty, then they run into someone who's god-tier, and they don't even know it, ooooh it's so good!

The girl abused her powers and now she's turn into an 'evil' witch. It can't be help given her situation. Such immature kids given a powerful magic is a recipe for disaster.

It was hard for me to watch, Sana going crazy, using her and the other girl's powers in front of live people which should be confidential.

seems like the relaxing SoL part is over.
