| So last week's cliffhanger was quite literally pointless in every way imaginable, while the rest of the episode was pretty good, even if it did repeat the show's formula again (and the problem with that is that I'm not really concerned at all, as we know she'll end up surviving like nothing ever happened (remember when she got stabbed in the chest, for instance?)). |
| That was literally the best story about a succubus that I have ever seen anywhere (granted that's not a lot of stuff, but still) Absolutely beautiful, the feels are real. |
 |
| Eh, they really shouldn't rely on cliffhangers if they are gonna be solved in the first 5 minutes of the next episode. Episode was okay but I can't say I felt much |
| Baby, daijobanai... |
| The whole episode was boring and then there's a new cliffhanger.... I'm starting to like less this show |
 |
| Next episode is going to be hugeeeeeee |
| Gosh, I'm such a crybaby. I can't, these feelings... And next is judgment day for Chise, lol. |
MomoSinX said: Welp, sadly it didn't have much of an impact compared to the manga. They really should have done this with 2 episodes imo. I really don't get the director, the previous 2 episodes (before this) were too drawn out and this one just rushed things. The pacing from 1-11 was pretty good but it's all over the place now. Oh well, next ep will treat us to something happy at least. Oh man yeah I really agree with you there! I haven’t seen anyone talk about the pacing though but I’ve felt such a difference recently. The fox Chise plot seemed so much more interesting to me than the rest of this episode which I just didn’t feel that much for. At least I’m excited for the next one. Still, Chise committing taboo and dying for an old dude to see some tiddies is a bit much haha |

| To sums up this episode. Lol I'm fox. <5 secs later> Fuck it. Im going back. xD RIP Joel. |

| idk about you guys but Redcurrant is the hottest character ever to be in highly revealing clothes. Usually such characters aren't my type but she is an exception. I still would like more of her in the future, good emotional episode. And I am worried for Chise now. |
 |
| It was a nice and beautiful (and oh so very sad) episode. I do get fed up however with the constant "We're on the end of the episode so something terrible happens with Chise". |
| Although Chise in her fox form looked really beautiful, it didn't last long as she did a quick U-turn and decided to stay with Elias. She might passed the test by the hooded guy, but it did feel a little lackluster. Joel's death was pretty emotional, as Chise made fairy ointment that helped him she the Sidhe. The insert song helped to make the scene even more powerful on the feels-o-meter. T_T However, making the ointment definitely took a toll on Chise as after giving the ointment to Oberon, she coughed up blood. I hope she'll get better next time, although the preview for the next episode looks pretty tense though. |
| For those wondering, the first part of the episode was kinda pointless, yes, but the fox's skin is going to be used again later so it's good that she has it. This episode was definitely stronger than the chapter with the music... |
 |
| Damn she dead. It's over guys. Can't say I care for Chise that much, tbh. She's very.. plain? And then they use her backstory to get you to like her repeatedly. I'm not saying I "dislike" her. But I also don't "like" her. |
 Three things cannot be long hidden.. ...the s u n, the m oo n, and the tr u th. |
| That's so sad episode, its worth waiting for the second half of the leanan sidhe and joel story animated. Again a cliffhanger, this show really loves cliffhanger. |
 |
| What an emotional episode, I cried. It was so sweeet and so warm. Oh god. Since I was so lost for why Redcurrant was being blame by Elias for Joel-san's death. I just googled what on earth "leánnan sídhe" is and apparently it's a type of fairy also vampires that take on a humanoid appearance that consumes the blood of human and in return grants them great talent. I guess in the case of Joel-san, what she gave him is the "planting whatchamacallit". Life Draining: As a price for their inspirational presence, leannán sídhe drink the blood of their lovers, granting them great artistic ability but also slowly killing them. Leannán sídhe have no control over this ability and spending too much time with a mortal will slowly drain him/her of their lifeforce, whether she is aware or not. Goddamn. Just the whole interaction between Redcurrant and Joel-san, maaan. I ship them two so much and it hurts me that they'll never be together. Waaaah. But headcanon that once Redcurrant pass on (if she will), Joel-san will meet her then they'll live happily ever after. Hahaha. ;-; Goddamn. I want to see Elias' reaction when Chise coughed out blood. Waaah. Oberon, what the fuck? But yeah it was a taboo for a human to create/make such magic. I mean Elias warned Chise. Still want to see his reaction. Great episode yet again. 5/5. <3 FrozenRaider said: To sums up this episode. Lol I'm fox. <5 secs later> Fuck it. Im going back. xD Ohmygod literally me throughout that scene like what the fuck? That was it? Hahaha. |

| Simply magical and beautiful, this episode goes right into the list among the best episodes I've ever seen. The scene where the song plays in the background was very touching, it's been a while I've felt such a strong emotion in anime before. |
 |
| Redcurrant is so beautiful, I pity her, for spend eternity waiting for your loved one that will probably never return. It's an interesting emotional episode that impressed me. The scenes with Chise in fox form were very beautiful. |
 |
| A very emotionally poignant episode. The garden scene right before Joel's passing was breathtakingly beautiful, and the insert song that was paired along with it really drove the scene home. The simplicity and innocence of the love story was also executed delicately without any unnecessary contrivances. I felt like this episode was as much about Joel and Redcurrant as it is about Chise and Elias' blooming relationship. I am glad that this show finally managed to stand back on its feet after a past couple of episodes of slow-paced burn. Look forward to next week's episode.  This would make a great signature. |

Username23489023 said: Same setup as the cat/black goo arc. Chise finds unhappy couple Chise does something OP Chise makes couple happy Chise gets sick Elias takes care of Chise. I’d wish they’d move on with her character and not repeat the same plot devices over and over again. I’ll give it a few more episodes. god i agree hope they change it up though |
 |
| I don't know how I'm supposed feel something for what's basically a succubus dressed in skimpy lingerie and some old dude. |
 |
| This was so rushed that I was confused about what was going on at all. Characters are introduced and disappear just like that. I mean, come on. What happened to the awesomeness of the first half of the show? |
| Damn it, this episode ;__;.... |
  |
| That was a pretty sad episode, the end has me really worried for chise. I hope everything will turn out alright. |
 |
| I take back that the OP song is just okay. It's pretty good. I just wish they didn't compile clips from the show to make the animation for it. I know last week's cliffhanger was resolved really soon, but this one looks pretty serious. Poor Chise :( |
| That was some ending god damn it. |
 |
| What an emotional episode especially for Redcurrant. oh noes, bad thing happened again to Chise!? what's with the black vomit thing that Chise let out!?!? 5/5. |
 |
| Amazing episode! The feels has infected me and I think I would live to next episode :() |

| Great episode but that cliffhanger... |
 |
| Despite a decent episode I'm rapidly losing interest on this, I may even drop this shortly. Heart of the problem is that none of the characters are really appealing for me |
| I had already imagined before watching this episode, but despite this, the tears came out the same, this anime is terrifying, in a good way. Pleasant narration, even this time manages to get excited and be unpredictable at the same time. interesting references in the magic field. Who knows what happens now to poor Chise. Excellent soundtrack. Welcome to the club! :D |
 |
| Good riddance to that awkward love between Joel and that vampire. I hope they won't show them again, more like her since she remained there. |

| Damn...what a sad love story. RIP Joel. Chise will now have to pay for what she did? |

| I bawled during the Redcurrant and Joel scene whoops |
| I cried so much my sweater sleeves got soggy. OH MY GOD. ughhh!!!! I love this series so much, it's gorgeous and everything I've been looking for in a new anime!! |

| >People thought Redcurrant was just fanservice back when she first appeared. >Her story made people cry. That's the beauty of this anime. You never know what to expect from a character. |
 |
| Joel & the Leanan Sidhe's story was sad. I really felt for them. |
| That went from uncontrollable tears to "OH SHIT" really quick. The farewell scene was really beautiful. And he knew what she was the whole time! ;~; |
| I was thinking Chise would go away for a bit, but no. It was sad to see Joel die... |
