Ha, that Delta girl can be a bit silly but still strong among Shadow Garden.

Seems Cid can't catch a break in this show as he's again attacked in the sanctuary. This trial arc really put pressure on him and his group. Still, this episode didn't feel that special compared to the others. Delta is no joke though.

Shadow Garden may be separated in the Sanctuary, but don't underestimate each of their powers, especially Delta, in the face of Archibshop Nelson, the 11th member of the Rounds of the Knight.

Cid and Aurora arriving at this zombie battlefield, and Epsilon with her crew on the fly to get as much intel as they can in their investigation. As they get closer to the Sanctuary's epicenter, more magic is sucked away, and this is definitely the case for her shadow-made boobs which fell off and re-attached again, trusting that everyone just took it as if it never happened. Delta's a force to be reckoned with, and no matter what Nelson can muster of his power, Delta trumps them all.

The epicenter of the Sanctuary with a sword that Cid cannot eject out of but only by direct descendants, both him and Aurora can't exactly do anything. Lots of fanservice shots with Delta, but her breaking without a sweat, is a feat enough. Nelson reviving the Hero Olivier, but this is in vain for Shadow Garden has deduced the Sanctuary's inner defenses, and their work is officially done. All that's left is for Cid and Aurora to await Nelson and Olivier's arrival, and the face-off between Olivier and Cid is something to behold.

While Cid is frustrated enough of Nelson's exposition and Aurora giving into his demand, getting Olivier to attack him is just the right call to activate his power. Can't wait for Cid to release unhinged.

That was a wonderful episode, I really like the normal paced animation and it focused more on the characters' perspectives instead of just animating it... lol the cliffhanger lmao

Unfortunately, we didn't get much monologues from Cid which I really am fond of but I still enjoyed this episode nonetheless.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Ok that "Caught you" at the end was really cool. They really know how to make cool one liners like with that Atomic in a previous episode. 

Also I love how chill he always is in every situation. 

Seeing Delta go absolute crazy was great to see too. She's one of my favourites.

That eye glowup in the end.. not even once in the history of anime someone lost after achieving this feat. Just the kind of cliffhanger they would've left this year with.

I SWEAR TO GOD THIS DIRECTOR, I HATE AND LOVE HIM AT THE SAME TIME. WATCHING THIS WEEKLY IS SO FRUSTRATING WHEN THEY CREATE SUCH SUSPENSE AT THE END OF EACH EPISODE. To be fair this is some of the best anime I've watched in a while. Always keeping you on your toes. God I can't wait for next episode.

Today's episode was awesome,
at the event of the Sanctuary, The Shadow Garden was split into two group due to the memory space accident, while fighting with the scientist.
Delta when berserk at the point where she is in her muscle head mode. meanwhile cid enjoy's his journey towards the core the Sanctuary like a man.
I can't wait to  see  cid  for the next week episode.

Another week, another great episode of the Eminence in Rizz or is it the Rizz in Shadow? Either way, I love this series and can't get enough of it. Delta finally gets her share of the spotlight and she was just uff yes. This show is really making me want to read the light novels (which of course is currently licensed by Yen Press).
Don't believe the hype.

Delta is really a force to be reckon with. The way she killed those clones. She’s like a dorodere. Look Cid was in trouble but as we seen this guy is unhinged. Can’t wait to see what he does in the next episode.

Nelson's mutated form vs Delta and Alpha huh. But Nelson's ploy did narrow the odds more to his favor than anything. Aurora though is pretty interesting as a character. Pretty interesting analogy in using zombies as the security program and Cid and Aurora as the virus. The sanctuary's magic absorption field won't be as effective if its target had excellent close combat skills by default lol. The clones were strong I give them that but not strong enough. But leaving just when you pushed the enemy to the brink really was a crafty move. Love how Nelson just got retconned into becoming the Baldy. Olivier is damm strong though but looks like Cid's chance to get even is finally here. Overall a fun ep that combined some nice action via Alpha/Delta's bout with Baldy and Cid's fight with Olivier. Aurora though is proving to be quite the enigma that the series is doing well to gradually expand upon.

Don't know what I can add to the consensus Re: Delta & that fabulous cliffhanger, as I feel quite the same.

The dialogue between Aurora and Cid was a delight to behold, so laid back and chill.

I loved everything about this episode and I'm thankful the show isn't over.

Delta is a beast, well she is beastkin, so it's expected but sure enough, she is pure violence and the only ones that can keep her in check are Alpha and Cid.

Deltas transitions from a beast let out of her cage to a scared little puppy when reprimanded by Alpha are a sight to behold.

Delta is best girl of this series and I will fight you for it.

The "Rolapoid" cameras gave me a nice chuckle as Shadow Garden/Mitsugoshi continue to rip off Cids knowledge from his original life.

Next episode looks to let Cid out of his cage a bit as well, so I can't wait!

Damn Delta really went psycho this episode and her attire throughout the ep was very intriguing to say the least.

I was wondering why Cid had his right eye closed the whole time but it seemed like he had anticipated that he would need a mass amount of magic and in that cliffhanger it seems like he will be letting it all loose

I don`t get how Cid is not counted among direct decendents, considering his sister was suffering from posession at one point. Was it because his ancestor was among Oliviers fellow test subjects, because he is not female or simply because he wanted to pretend that he is not not the MC of this show?
