| Dat cliffhanger was like "F*** U ALL" lol Adlet's teamwork with Fremy was awesome. Loved how she really held it down protecting him. U'd think with that kind of gun she can't fight that well in fights needing fast reactions but she's good. The way Adlet took the stab from Nachetania and kicked her in the face was BA! I was "GET REKT BITCH" to Maura and Nashetania when Hans appeared :D So satisfying Loved how Adlet broke the theory down. Science BITCHES!! :D Gotta hand it to Adlet having survived his fight against all 6 and revealing the way all this BS happened. Calling himself The worlds strongest isn't far fetched 4real. |

| SO. FUCKING. INTENSE. AND THAT FUCKING CLIFFHANGER ARRRGHHHHrhrhrhgfohoduhbfinkbsdbvknc I can't believe I have to wait one more week for direct confirmation for who the 7th is. I'm still betting on Mora TBH. I'm not really sure what Adlet's top tier analysis is connected with who the 7th must be. |

| It's so obvious who the seventh is. There are only 2 people who fucked around with the altar. |
| WORST CLIFFHANGER EVER.... my god... I felt liked flipping a table seriously. I have tears running down my eyes how angry I am at this.... urgh! 7 days... 7 freaking days to wait! anyway AOTS |
| Watch Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha, you wont be disappointed. http://q.pokefarm.org/user/Uran10 Check out My Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEz0PrV3Vh-ksW0mzOWnnSQ  |
| god damn it that cliffhanger lmao Well that explained the setup but still don't know who was culprit e_E Though i think i have a good guess at who it is |

Spoiler-free excerpt from the LN if anyone wants to read it: Beautiful. I wish he'd kicked her twice like in the novel, but what we saw was still pretty damn satisfying. |
| Perfect cliffhanger. God, this wait is going to feel so long. Anyways, I called it, sweet. So the fog was in fact due to Riura's powers, and her corpse was hidden within the body of a fiend. I wonder if there's going to be any talk about how the barrier was activated or that Nashetania was the one that reminded Adlet to go to the temple. |

apokaliz500 said: Equitum said: Why do you think it's Goldof? Given the revealed way of creating fog, it could be either Goldof or Nashetania. And Nashetania had her sweet time alone with Adlet this episode, was practically about to kill him. Would he keep her act that he's the seventh? I honesly think she's genuine by now. I don't know about that. I think she always believed that Adlet didn't do it, but then lost her mind when Maura lied. So once she snapped out of it she was back to being like oh he didn't do it. |

| Great episode, I only have a bone to pick with the animation. I didn't mind the first half but the latter half had terrible far-away shots and ugly faces. After this series ends one of these two things has to happen, I don't mind either: A. The LNs get licensed for English release, by Yenpress maybe. B. Passione or (more unlikely) another studio pick this gem of a show up, and make a second season. Otherwise, this series feels like its going into the pile of adaptations that are left incomplete when it doesn't deserve to be in it. |
| It's probably Nashetania. Bitch has a crazed look to her Goldov is a lap dog, and he did propose to not kill him and extract information from him. For a person that loathes Adlet, he acted pretty calmly after pinning Adlet. |
"The seventh... The seventh is..." ENDS THE EPISODE. (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ Holy fck! That's one of the worst cliffhangers of the season. I'm glad Adlet has proven his innocence but I just want the damn answer. Seeing Adlet & Fremy protecting each other during the fight was great.  Maura looks the most suspicious now but it could still be someone else. Seeing Goldov & Fremy against each other though was nice bec I've always thought the way they dress is so similar.  |

| If only the animation and art consistency held up. I cri evrytiem. |

apokaliz500 said: darboux said: If it was goldof he would not say : ''lets keep him alive so he can talk about his plans'' or something like that (dun remember excact line) Maura and Nashetania INSISTED on goldof killing him.If he was the 7th he would have killed him without second thought.Then everyone would jump on Maura or whoever else without him been suspected. Its damn obvious now its the bunny girl. If he's that eager to listen to Adlet's plans now, why wasn't he when he attacked him in the episode 5? You think he throwed that big, sharp weapon at him to, what, make him unconscious? Adlet was incapacitated by his many wounds and effectively captured. There was no need to attack/kill him right away, like Maura and Nachetanya wanted to. |
Obligatory meme In honor of Adlet; |

| HAHAHAHA. That's probably the CLIFFHANGER OF THE YEAR. GOD I KNEW IT WILL END LIKE THAT. I AM PISSED. I tried to search over the internet who the fake is, and there is no ANSWER ANYWHERE. |

Of all of the series that premiered this season, Rokka is one of which that absolutely deserves a sequel. And if the LN was to get licensed, I'd prefer Yenpress to pick it up as well. |

I tried to search over the internet who the fake is, and there is no ANSWER ANYWHERE. just go read the LN if you are interested there's translations beyond what the anime is going to cover I have not checked it out myself but will probably do so after the anime concludes. https://rokkathetranslation.wordpress.com/ |
| 10/10 god tier episode. I would rate it 10 anyway ONLY for that kick. Take that bunny hime! Good job Adlet. Someone knows thermodynamics |

Rage cliff hanger but we all know who it is now anyway so yeah. Awesome action although the faces where occasionally off model but oh well. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| I don't think I can wait a week so I'm going to speed through the rest of the LN now. |

| Interesting even if a bit convulted scheme but it makes sense. Either way time to go report the pretend-speculator poster who "speculated" about the Private who told about b arrier being in league with the seventh. Fucking spoilers everywhere veiled as pretend-speculations. This is why I avoid MAL episode threads as much as I can. Anyway great and tense episode, with only one downside - they keep heavy-handedly trying to show Fremy caring for Adlet, etc and it just brings out of the overall great tension and atmosphere of the episode. Really wish the "romance"(if you can call it that) aspect was not there because of how forced, fake and out of nowhere it feels - really takes us out of the tense and thrilling mystery/detective the show's narrative is weaving. Also out of entire cast, Fremy seems to be most one-dimensional rightnow with her only traits being her "i trust nobody" persona and her "I like adlet" nonsense. I am intrigued by all the other braves except her so far so I hope the narrative will surprise me and she has more going for her than that. Anyway can't wait for final episode. I wonder who seventh is. |

| Just me or is this mystery breaking a bit too many of Van Dine's 20 Rules? I don't really find it satisfactory |

| Best girl Fremy. And uhh... feels like Adlet pulled that straight out of his ass but at this point I'm sick of Maura bullheadedly insisting he's the 7th. Next week last episode?! |

Pknoctis said: Best girl Fremy. And uhh... feels like Adlet pulled that straight out of his ass but at this point I'm sick of Maura bullheadedly insisting he's the 7th. Next week last episode?! It's just because the clues have been spread out through a few months. Also it's just a bit of lateral thinking on Adlet's part which you would expect if he was the strongest in the world. |
Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| A cliffhanger was inevitable. But still...damn you cliffhanger!! I thoroughly enjoyed Adlet kicking Nashetania in the face, after letting his own hands be stabbed to stop the finishing strike, like boss--on top of breaking her main weapon. Take that, crazy ass bitch! Eat dirt from the dirty boot! I loved it when Fremy is all like "I'll be taking my gun back, thank you very much" silently from Mora, when Mora's lies were exposed. Now everything she says from now on won't be able to hold any weight, and all her decisions can be vetoed as they can be invalidated by her rash untrusting nature. Her ability to lead the 6 braves will be called into question, as she is seen unfit for the role. |

HaXXspetten said: Just me or is this mystery breaking a bit too many of Van Dine's 20 Rules? I don't really find it satisfactory Yeah I felt it relied too much on things the viewer had no way of knowing(fake barriers, seventh having an acomplice, half the rules we knew being fake, etc). I mean it all fits together nicely and all but If there's one thing disappointing about this mystery it is the fact that there's no way a viewer could have put it all together on their own. If I were to do this story I would have made Adlet and everyone else a lot more ambiguous and Adlet's rants and "theories" a lot more crazy and persecution-complex-like so the whole psychological warfare aspect works better. Right now the whole mystery aspect is shaky - after all this show is at its best when you DO NOT know who to trust(including MC himself). And it is at its lowest when "teamwork and trust", forced romance and "Mc explaining convulted theories" happens. Really leaves a kind of unpolished jewel impression so far. |

| How come Chamot was ok with leaving the temple with Hans? Anyways, I really liked the explanations of why the fog appeared, it was pretty clever. Other than that, though, this episode was the ugliest by far. The running animation for Adlet during the fight was ridiculously bad and most of the scenes in the second half looked like I drew them. Hint, I can't draw for shit. So yeah, a bit disappointing Passione seems to be running out of budget now, hopefully next episode looks better. |
| 5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |
CookingPriest said: Yeah exactly. You should absolutely be able to figure out the whole truth yourself before it is revealed in the story or it's not a good mystery. Now I'm not saying that it was impossible to do so in this case but really Adlet's "solution" here felt way too far-fetched. You should at least be given clear clues to work with. It's like being given a puzzle where someone has hidden half the pieces. Of course there's no fun in trying to lay that :sHaXXspetten said: Just me or is this mystery breaking a bit too many of Van Dine's 20 Rules?

| Rokka no Yuusha just keeps getting better with its timing o/ makes me feel like all my past theories were worthless 5/5 |

| It's not that the explanation was BS it's just that people weren't paying attention to the right details XD. (well I wasn't either). |
