| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- The reunion! Lol, that was priceless although kinda what I had expected. I like how confident Etoile has become over these years. Kinda felt bad for him though since his friends were killed. I also think that book he handed over to Arslan will be useful in the future. Good buildup overall with the Emperor and character building. Narsus is also such a badass. Same with Silvermask. His brief fight with Daryun is definitely worth watching.  |
 |
| Convert to Yaldabaoth eh. Good to see Etoile at least and they'll probably be glad to have that book in the future. |

| The fanaticism of the Lusitanians knows no bounds. Only the most extreme and ignorant of societies burns books and culture like that. We're close to catching up to the manga. |
| "Perhaps there is a universal, absolute truth. Perhaps it justifies every question. But that's beyond the reach of these small hands."

| I hope that king disappears ASAP. He just a bad character.Typical fat bad kibg blablabla. Otherwise, enjoyed the episode :) |
| Arslan and Etoile meeting again. I was waiting for this moment. This anime never fail to disappoint me. |
| Woah! Silver Mask is stronger than Daryun? Even when Daryun was pissed from finding out he's the killer of Vahriz :O From what Daryun told Narsus, he would've been in trouble had he not come to help. Didn't expect that one. Silver Mask's face looks pretty different from what I imagined. He looks pretty cool. He looks like a young Bradley for some reason :P Lol'd at Narsus's reason for getting pissed XD Being called an inept painter XD Didn't expect Arslan to meet Etoile that quickly too. I wonder how Etoile's reaction will be after finding out that's Arslan. For some reason I'm liking the Lustania king lol XD The archpriest however needs to DIE ASAP!! What a loser burning all that knowledge <_< |
 |
| Oh religion how i hate it burning knowledge. All men arel equal but if you don't follow our god we will kill you |
 |
| Arslan and Etoile's ate full reunion went a pot better than I thought it would =o Glad to see that there was no hostility between them because Etoile is starting to grow on me and is in fact a nice kid who's just misguided by that warped religion I lol'd at how the Lustanian King can't even get Tahamenay to give him the time of day xD At this rate I doubt that she's going to marry him and that priest surely won't have it either (That cunt needs to die painfully) whom in himself is a complete dumbass for doing what he did Daryun vs Silver Mask was epic and worth the hype but dang, I did not expect to see that he had the upper hand....I guess one could argue that Daryun didn't have his true weapon on him but you can't take anything away from Mask since he was holding his own when Narsus came for the double team Overall good episode and Gieves you aren't worthy to court Falangies bro....Please stahp >.< |
| That lord arch-bishop guy (Bodin?) looks like a maniac. Arslan is still trying to make friends with people his own age.:/ |

| Zuko vs Daryun + Narsus was awesome! Didn't expect Arslan to reunite with Etoile so soon. I'm expecting that Arslan will be studying that book. |
 |
| Thus, the first novel has ended. Alfreed is finally going to appear soon. Fight between Slivermarsk and Daryun and Narsus was good. Still, a lot of derpy faces. It's not that bad to start botherng me yet, but I hope that at least it won't become worse. Anyway, it was a pretty good adaptation of "The Capital Ablaze" (there was a few changes here and there, though), now it's time for "The Two Princes", which isn't translated yet. |
| Daryun vs. Silvermask was amazing! :o Also Arslan and Etoile see each other again (Etoile still doesn't know that he is Arslan) Much derping though in this episode lol |
| I hope they take out that bastard bodin. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| good episode. and lusitanians are super religious fanatics. |
| Is Etoile a woman? D: |
| The text above may contain errors. |
| So besides wearing a mask Hermes has his own agenda, is a fallen prince, is related to one of the main characters and is impossibly badass for someone so young. That's it. He is officially a Char Clone. |

| Best episode so far. The battle among the great swordsmen was great. I like Narsus more than Daryun for his personality |
 |
| That fight was GOOD :O But Daryun didn't have his preferred weapon, so he would have lost eventually. Mroujeee said: Oh religion how i hate it burning knowledge. All men arel equal but if you don't follow our god we will kill you If you think all religion is like that, then your even more retarded than that bastard bodin. |

If you think that use of 'retarded' is acceptable then I think you need to look inside yourself and start questioning. |
| 眠れないのは君のせい |
| I want to know more about Tahaminay's "beauty". We got to see again how manipulative and oppressive the Faith of Yaldabaoth is. Étoile doesn't even think outside the box, he's so narrow-minded that he doesn't want to accept other views. The mask is down! I want to know who he is, maybe he is a relative of Andragoras or something like that. |
 |
| I have a feeling the book Etoile gave Arslan will be important at some point. Gieve's interactions with Falangies are always so funny haha. And that fight between Daryun and Narsus vs. Silver Mask was pretty good, despite how short it was. I'm sure we'll get an explanation eventually about how Silver Mask got that burn mark. And let's not forget Daryun's face when Narsus complained about Silver Mask insulting him........priceless lol. Not sure if it's just me but it still sounds like Yuki Kaji is trying too hard to force his voice to sound menacing as Silver Mask. Maybe because he's so used to voicing teenage characters. He's still doing a good job, but I feel like Daisuke Ono's voice would be a better fit |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| The sword fight was actually really long if we are going be realistic standards. |
Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| Oh the hypocrisy of Yaldabaoth. Silver Mask vs. Daryun was beautiful. Clearly one of the better animes of this season, if not the best. Lichtspiel said: The mask is down! I want to know who he is, maybe he is a relative of Andragoras or something like that. |
| Great episode. I hate seeing religious fanaticism and burning of texts with historical and cultural value, but it fit the show and gave it a sense of realism, especially with what is happening even nowadays. Arslan and Etoile's reunion was also nicely done, so was the fight scene. And Narsus was awesome as always. |
| Arslan finally meet Etoile. Lusitania say that what Pars do is not correct, but the way they burn, kill, looting, and taking others daughter is just inhuman or even worst. Also the way Lusitania push their religion onto other is inhuman and just because they don't believe in the same thing as you, you kill them off. This is off topic but the way Lusitania push their belief on other is just like Christian (Don't get me wrong, but it is the true). Hopefully, Arslan and his men kill all those Lusitania. |
 |
| In a way, Innocentis VII and Gieve are facing the same struggle, trying to court the woman of their interest but failing all the same. The latter is preferably a bit more comical. Bodin pisses me off big time! I hope this son of a bitch dies a painful death. Better make it happen, Narsus. Etoile appears to have been blinded by the hypocritical religion of Yaldabaoth. Otherwise, he was rather gentle for the most part, considering he's a Lusitanian commander now. Narsus was so badass; owning two men at once! Those sword movements of his were swift as F! Silver Mask vs. Daryun was pretty awesome too, although Hermes seemed to have the upper hand, even when facing two opponents. The upcoming battles against him would be epic! Decent episode. From the PV, Lord Master of Kashan Fortress sounds kinda shady.. O.o |

Barion-Zara said: Woah! Silver Mask is stronger than Daryun? Even when Daryun was pissed from finding out he's the killer of Vahriz :O I wouldn't say he's stronger - more like he emotionally manipulated Daryun to make him lose his cool and succeeded. Luckily, Narsus was there. This kick below the belt that Silvermask used is only good once, so next time we will see a much more even battle between him and Daryun. Tokoya said: Overall good episode and Gieves you aren't worthy to court Falangies bro....Please stahp >.< Persistence pays off when courting women...keep trying Gieve, my man :) Overall a nice episode with some intense fight scenes. I only hated the parts with the fat king trying to woo the queen - really, how can one be so dumb and still be king. |
| Really good episode, and I loved the fight, though brief, between Daryun and Silvermask. I really want to know where they're gonna take the story of that Lustanian kid. Also, I really hope I'm not the only one who likes the animation of this show. |
"You either die an Ashita no Joe, or you live long enough to see yourself become a Naruto."  |
| the fuck why burn those texts what the hell man |
 |
| Solid episode as usual. The reunion was cool. Kinda pitiful to see his mind has been corrupted by those extreme beliefs. |
| What a great fight! LOL Narsus mad coz he was called unable painter. |
 |
| Well Arslan is definitely one of the best anime series this season. And this episode is a prime example of it. The art, the battles. EVERYTHING IS AWESOME. |
| Another well done episode, as well as the last fight scene - it was impressive. |
| Epic episode, silver mask guy is a bad ass, but I'm actually glad that Daryun did not over power him. The reunion left a nasty taste, don't read the book Arslan!!! The king of Lusitania, god his voice is so annoying. Also seeing them burning the text, destroying both history and a culture, made me think of Qin Shi Huang during the Qin dynasty. |
| The king does not look happy... Inb4hegoesmad. |
| Even when I was in crowd, I was always alone |
| Good episode. I'm liking Arslan's wanting to help others even though he's incapable sometimes. And he and Étoile meet again on a more awkward note than expected. The battle with Silvermask vs. Daryun and Narsus was nice. |
 |
| So it would seem Prince Zuko has made his way onto Arslan Senki lol |

I know, the art in the 2v1 between Hermes and Daryun and Narsus was nice but the lighting was too dark for me. I at least think that they should keep the art consistent. |
