Gah! Bal Masque always ruined the most crucial moments. And who ever saw it coming? Yuji is becoming a nii-san. It could have been Yuji going to Shana's place and Yoshida accepts Ike who's now serious. (; >ω<)

Gah, why do you have to appear now, Hecate?! Horrible timing. But more importantly, she was able to extract the reiji maigo. O_o

Shana was so cute in this episode, the twin tails were awesome! Dang cliffhangers.


I love how they keep the background story going with Yuji becoming an older brother and Ike confessing his feelings to Kazumi after listing the way everyone has grown the past 22 episodes for the ones that don't know what character development is. :D

Yeah, Shana was so cute in this episode. The part where she asks on how to make babies, was really funny xD
Why did Hecate had to ruin everything! Also, I can't believe she removed the Reiji Maigo so easily D:
Can't wait for the next episode.

I wonder what Bal Masque has achieved thanks to Sabrac? maybe because of his actions removing Reiji Maigo from Yuji was such a damn easy thing to do for Hecate? unlikely I guess, but who knows.

Yeah, I thought the same exactly thing..

Oh god...Shana with twin tails = luv
This scene was so fucking awesome xDD

Can't wait to see which cliffhanger they will deliver us for the ending of this season :D

Very cute episode, but Hecate couldn't have had worse timing. Yuji didn't even hint at which direction he was going to go :(

I also really liked the second eye catch for some reason, with Shana and Yoshida making a snowman ^_^

Shana with 2 tails = Wang liu mei from Gundam 00??

This episode has really good character development. They should have eliminated a LOT of the episodes in the first half of the series to get them replace by a FEW of these. That would be more balanced.... Now, it's the end and I hope things don't finish off too fast or rushed.....
bla bla bla
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.

I excpected the interruption from the moment Shana and Kazumi made the plan.
Of course how would you expect it to go?
They still need the Fan Service!

But still, Shana's 'making babies' part was probably the most hilarious thing she ever said in both Season 1 & 2 as far as I remember.

Another great episode. I was beginning to think the Joint opening with Ike when it was snowing was just a little tease. Hecate really did appear at a bad time. I was really curious on which place Yuji would end going. It looks like Yoshida might just use the Hougu now, since she is outside the barrier.

I really can't wait for the next episode, but with only two episodes left. They better not give us a non ending, I would rather have a cliffhanger if the third season is indeed coming.

one question goes through my head now:
When the fuck did Sakai's dad impregnate Chigusa!?
while being abroad for such a long time

nah, cyruz has a point.. *stareup*

This episode was really amazing. Great coming to a head situation with including the whole thinks that came from the earlier episodes so now Ike does not leave the screen as a supernumerary.
And even including some thinks no one really had expected again.

Did anyone else get the feeling that Yuji's dad might be Sabrac the sword guy that they just fought? As soon as I saw him in this ep his hair looked painfully similar to Sabrac's. It would also make sense to why Yuji's dad is never around. Why he would be fighting his own son is up in the air though.

Also another interesting thing is that Yuji is the second son. The first was died and if you think about it Yuji is dead too...so I wonder if the third will come out living or like Yuji. It would be a shocker if Yuji saw his mom holding the baby and him noticing it having one of those blue glowing things in it.

I don't think so, although the whole "san" thing is a little unnerving. They are husband and wife for goodness sake. Also, Sabrac is alive !!! They better give some explanation here, aisde from the fact he was just too awesome to ditch him so quickly.

That said, he did in one-two nights what he couldn't in 16 years. Quite convenient (reminds me of Goku of DB/DBZ).

BTW, I seem to remember something about the Reiji Maigo having been sealed by Sabrac, hence why Pheles couldn't take it out. Last time, Hecate's "shadow" did "something" to the Reiji Maigo, which could explain how Hecate could take it out so easily.

Now, I'm curious as to how things will develop. With the Reiji Maigo out of him, Yuji is in danger of fading away (although not insantly, since he has A LOT of Power of Existence) and Shana sure as hell won't let that happen. If Pheles comes she will want to take it for herself (and Johan) which will of course make her an enemy again. Two episodes to go, and many possibilities.

Now that would be interesting. It's just the motive for fighting Yuji would be a stretch.

Very nice episode, can't wait for the next. Lots of great moments (Ike getting pwnd, Yuji's discussion with his dad, Sabrac still being alive, baby making...), really all of it was enjoyable. Then the weird "twist" at the end with Hecate taking out Reiji Maigo like it's nothing... The final 2 episodes should be awesome.

This episode reminded me that i also have an older brother who died at birth... I had just about the same reaction as Yuji when i was told years ago.

Not bad, not bad. Shana asking about babies really was priceless.

If only Yoshida had gone with Ike, though! Not like I expected it to happen at all, but at least the conflict would be resolved and I wouldn't wish death upon Yoshida anymore. Also, why didn't the two girls just confess their love in the letters? Make Yuuji choose after knowing what they had to say rather than before?

Remember, Sabrac put an unrestricted spell on it last time when he almost killed Yohan!
So this time he probably showed up to remove it during the fight, when he was holding him!

I guess you have watched too much anime to tell what's normal and what isn't anymore.

I only check Jason's blog for pics these days, what he's been writing this year was nothing but bullshit.

Sabrac was not that much of a surprise - the timing was just not right for his death. (Yeah, too much meta-thinking here...) But the rest of the episode. Just amazing. With this even I agree that the second season is finally up to the first one's greatness.

As everyone else, loved the baby question! :D

Another great episode but I wish the interruptions would stop happening. We all knew it was going to happen but still. I think everyone is ready for the love triangle to be over. I hate it when you get so much progression and then they do something to keep things from being resolved. Hopefully the season will end with Yuji finally realizing that Shana loves him and vice versa. That way, even if it's a cliff hanger we can have something to make us smile. Note that I harbor no ill will towards Kazumi and I actually like her, but she just isn't the one for Yuji.

I would have felt bad for Ike if she did pick him, at least right now. She obviously loves Yuuji, so if she said yes to Ike, I think he would know she was just 'settling' for him and that he is just a rebound guy. Ike will probably end up with the female clone of him from the school festival, lol. I think he should join Outlaw, given his organizational skills. :D
