| love this episode sooo muuuch |
 |
| Beatrix Vs Slayer! kekeke |
| Holy fucking p e a k. But man, I feel so bad for Iris, Mundane Mann was so raw that one little twitch from him is equal to death in her mind. She has my eternal respect if she manages to bounce back from this humiliation. "Hashtag elegant breakfast with the princess!" fucking killed me. Cid's mob character self getting exposed will never not be funny. LET'S GO ROSE! Though I should not be celebrating, cause she just killed her father. Aye, on the bright side, time to join Shadow Garden. Sty- I mean, Shadow vs Beatrix, can't fucking wait, but fuck, it's the last episode. They better announce that second season asap. |
 |
Iris's battle was awsome. Shadow's entrance, Rose's determination... Every piece in this episode was so good. I dont want to believe that this season will end next week. |
 |
| What Cid did to Iris during the match was ruthless. It will be hard for her to get up from that. It is good seeing Rose's determination but it's tragic to see her kill her father. Hope she takes down Perv Asshat herself. Hyped for Shadow vs Beatrix. It's unfair they had to end it on that cliffhanger. I hope to see a second season announcement soon. |
 |
| Love it! It was great from beginning to end. I would want to argue that it was the best episode till now. Looking forward to the last one next week. |

GerHelfen said: The Light Novel is really good, and this adaptation is great. This show is a clear example of cases when the Anime is better than the Manga, comedy and action wise, Episode 19 is a great example because we come holding our laughter because we already know Cid is gonna steamroll over Iris but daaaaamn, seeing her life and all the expectations people have of her turn thing into horror AND THEY STILL PULL OUT A PERFECT JOKE with Stylish Badit Killer. But that been said I don´t know how does stand compare to the LN, maybe is a 1 to 1 adaption (minus the choice of episode 1 which is from Volume 4) and that is why is so perfect They really did justice to the original LN with it. |

VadInfluenz said: astralkill00 said: What happened on that fight that you mention was that when you reach a certain fighting level you develop like a fighter instinct that you can perceive things you wouldn't be able to see as a novice and she actually mentions it, the simple fact that he's doing those slight movements with his wrist or the position of his body, let's her know by instinct how he's going to attack, but at the same time feeling that he's way to powerful, so as to not be able to counter his attack or evade, that's why we see these "hallucinations" she's having, actually I think you could call them almost like premonitions and it happened also on the episode against the Golden boy don't remember the name.I would call this an EPIC episode. Cid is still running away from his big sis, lol, condolences to her. There were a few cute moments of Iris trying out milked coffee which was really enjoyable, what's more enjoyable is how fearful she is from Cid's tactics... which I have no clue what happened but it was still intriguing to watch Iris battling Cid as... (forgot the name...) I guess the last episode would be more epic than this, I hope so and I can't wait... but at the same time, saddened, for this series' adaptation will come to an end after episode 20. The only thing I can do is to look forward to a future sequel. And the alias is Mundane Mann. oh... intriguing, thanks! >.< |
| 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. |
| Cid's psychological pressure on Iris during the fight was incredible xD And now that Rose is getting freed we had Cid's badass appearance that is leading to more fight and I'm curious to how the fight against Beatrix will turn out, things are so tense right now |
 |
| I'ma score this 10/10 when it ends. I don't give a shit what anyone else says. The light novel is amazing, the manga is funny as hell and this adaption is spot on... almost. But still an amazing adaption and great action + comedy. Those who can't find the comedy in this must have something wrong with their brains. Also the cliffhangers makes this series even better. |
| Today, I may be a weak little bug that gets tossed in the wind, washed away by the currents, and drowns, but tomorrow, I may become the butterfly that spreads its colossal wings and flies the open skies! ~ Oe Kintaro |
| Gonna be one hell of a fight, mundane mann reveals himself! Awesome |
 |
| This and blue block are the hype anime's for me rn |
| Bro, the way Shadow blocked Beatrix's attack, dude was making a fcking pose! and with that smooth ass BGM!!! holy fck that was one of the most hyped ending to an episode this series has done. The way he was also just smiling, I cannot wait for another season! the anime has done the source justice!!! |
  |
| For how much I don't really care about the main plot at this point, I did care about the main battle, Rose's return and the upcoming battle between Shadow and Beatrix. Also, what a way to ruin a revelation with a dumb name XD |

| I'm really hoping this wasn't just some advertisement for the LN and the mobile game Crunchyroll released a few months ago. At the very least, it'd be reassuring to know of there's gonna be a sequel at some point. |

| DAMN, this episode is lit. Can't wait for cid vs beatrix next!! |

Marinate1016 said: While the direction has been great i cant say the same for the animation... not even the important fights 1-19 had any fluid animation or some kind of sakuga.NEXUS GOAT NEXUS GOAT NEXUS GOAT. Last 5 minutes or so legit gave me goosebumps. Amazing job adapting the hype at parts of volume 2, wow. Rose casting aside everything and continuing the fight even at the cost of her father’s life, mad respect. That moment was very emotional and they did a great job of showing rose’s conviction and why she’s best girl. Am I tripping or did the anime imply she’d been working with shadow garden prior to the end of volume 2? Did they arrive to the stadium together or? That’s anime original IIRC Cid and Beatrix crossing swords was so hype man this finale is going to be insane I promise you. i'm hoping for episode 20 but i don't have high expectations animation wise. i'm not asking for mappa or ufotable levels of animation but at least something better than the slideshow we had in episodes 1-19 (there were a few 1-3 seconds fluid scenes but nothing impressive) |
