| Yikes, Rose got herself caught into some real messy drama. Like seriously, maybe she should not get herself involved with Cid anymore. Still, I'd say that Rose is also capable of fighting and her skills shouldn't be underestimated. Cid is still on another level though. |
 |
| Alexia and Natsume went to the royal underpass to protect Rose. Rose, guided by the piano, was reunited with Shadow. Gekkou, a stunning piano performance by Epsilon. Rose's father betrays and slanders Rose that her grandfather was killed by her. As a result, Rose is about to be killed by her family. Rose received power from Shadow, did Rose join Shadow Garden? Alexia vs Rose, absolutely amazing. 10/10 for this episode...  |
| Learning Piano and getting good at it just cause it's cool for Eminence in the Shadow...I can respect the dedication. Dude just yoinked the grand piano all the way there for his performance |
 |
| what an a epic episode we got today !! |
| Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, implemented to perfection. I have got to say, this was probably one of the more enjoyable episodes of the show so far, and maybe the piano does have some magical power to make episodes fun. So, it turned out that Rose's stabbing of her fiancé was a bit of a setup, and now she is the target for execution. At this point, I'm still not really sure how to feel about the whole story around Rose, since I haven't really cared about her character a whole lot. Under the moonlight, Shadow made an appearance under the moonlight, to play the piano, and it's quite hilarious that Cid learned to play the piano just so it would look cool for the Eminence in Shadow. Alexia at the end felt betrayed that Rose has chose her own path without telling her and Beta, and that fight was quite something. With Rose's newfound power, how will her enemies stand against her now? |

  |
| And thus, drawn by the beauty of his music, Rose finds Shadow and accepts his gift in order to avenge her kingdom. In any other hands this would be cheesiness of the highest order, and yet... Just somehow, everything that Cid does is an order of magnitude cooler than anything that's come before. And even so, he still couldn't shake his sister off ;-) |
| Quantum ille canis est in fenestra |
| not gonna pretend it doesn't get lame when the characters are so broken you no nothing bad is ever going to happen to them |
   |
| Another splendid episode! Cid will probably get killed by his big sister sooner or later... lmao  |
| 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. |
| We finally got to see Lord Shadow playing piano under the sunlight moonlight. |
| this episode we find out that epsilon is a muscian whos gonna infiltrate the oriana kingdom also the king of the oriana kingdom is crontrolled by the cult of diablous we also learn that rose want revenge |
 |
| this episode showed us again why this show should be rated way higher. it was seriously fabulous episode |
| https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ [WATCH THIS^^^] |
| Now I'm more curious how Cid carried that big ass piano all the way to those underground passages, but yeah assuming him must be one of his alien powers. We got that Rose joined the shadow garden, though does it mean at some point there's a chance she'll know about Shadow's real identity too? I hope so. |
 |
| Another great episode with now Epsilon plagiarizing Beethoven after Gamma and Beta did the same prior with their own businesses lol. So it looks like Rose has now joined Shadow Garden or least accepted power. I kind of feel bad for Alexia for being ignored by Rose and also what Beta said (Beta had subtle trash talk when she told Alexia that her father will ignore the issues with Cult of Diablos as he always has which I interpreted as also ignoring Alexia, then soon after Beta's delayed response of "Don't kill me!" when Alexia jokingly said she'll dispose of her body lol I really like their interactions). There's so much going on that we didn't even see another match with Mundane Mann and I think his next match is with Annerose. Maybe I forgot something but why is Cid's sister looking for him? Looks like she waited all day for him to get back. |
| He got bored and played piano. Gave power to the runaway princess and now gonna die cause it's his sister. His expression was like shimatta, owaridana. |
| great ep as usual, this show should be 8.00+ tbh. cid will most likely get murdered by claire as we saw at the end lmao. [font="\"Proxima Nova Regular\", \"Helvetica Neue\", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"]  [/font] |
[/font]
| That ending lol, Claire is one step ahead of Cid. Rose was pretty epic there, she's gonna join shadow garden? Hopefully. |
 |
| As always, this episode left me hyped for what comes next. Hopefully Rose joins SG after everything. And if in the process she learns of Cid's identity? Now that would be epic. Speaking of epic, he actually stole a piano just to get his cool scene lol. |
| The trash keeps rolling. Lol what a terrible anime |
 |
| bro, kageno got the rizz |
| The Piano scene was pretty cool but did he return it though? XD Now that Rose received power, I wonder how she'll go about confronting the cult. Also, with all his power, Cid is no match for his sister. |
 |
| They did it! They said the thing! Amazing episode. The piano scene with Cid was very well done and the build up to it was great. Rose’s power up was incredible and I can’t wait to see the limits of her new power. They’ve done an awesome job with this adaptation |
 |
| Rose is officially a wanted murderer, and Cid's experience on the piano while training to be the Eminence in Shadow and playing Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, it's a perfect representation of his character. And would ya know it, Epsilon beat him to the punch for using real-life music that's plagiarized for the fantasy world, the same way Beta/Natsume uses real-life stories for her novels. Both Alexia and Beta wandering through the Royal Capital's underground passages looking to find Rose, and it turns out that she was just the victim in the brainwashing affair of the Oriana Kingdom affected by the Cult of Diablos through Perv Asshat. A daughter fighting for her kingdom's peace with her only family of a manipulated father being a pawn in this farce, it all seemed like the end of Rose's kingdom. And there Cid/Shadow was, playing Moonlight Sonata on a grand piano in a grand scale, casually inviting the distraught princess to help her tide over her grim situation. There is no turning back for Rose: this is what she has planned to do, and leaving Alexia out of the friendship equation is an absolute no-no. Even then, this is her steel resolve, and Shadow Garden is more or less the same. Until then, Beta will continue to play babysitting duties, and Claire is always one step ahead. Spectacular. |
 |
| I love how extra he is. Man just steals a piano just to have a cool looking scene lmao. That princess is probably gonna join Shadow Garden at some point soon. Sucks to see we're already almost at the end of series cause this has been something I look forward to every week. It gives the same satisfation as Overlord with the MC just doing whatever he wants and accidentally succeeds doing it. I hope we get a sequel but considering we already got a 20 episode season I doubt we'll get more. |
| Yuritopia FTW!!!!!!!!! BANZAI TO YURI !!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Twas kinda meh, What we really wanted was at the end lolz |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| This episode was actually so good!! Rose might end up joining shadow garden by the end of this now that she has a bit of shadows power. We also got the long awaited return of Cid's sister, god knows where she has been the whole time but she is back! |
 |
| It's getting close to the end of volume 2, so I'm excited for how they will handle the climax, there's still three more episodes after all |

| Shadow is an amazing piano too, damn he's too cool |
 |
| Our lord and savior Cid is indeed a master of all arts. But the whole piano scene was so good! Can't wait for the end of this arc, let's see if we'll have another "I am atomic" lmao |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| each moment looks like the episode is gonna end, but it lasts and lasts hooking much on the edge of frustating of the waiting for the next week. it managed to fool me for about 5 times. great ep. |
