Who's willing to bet that he will make an unwelcome return in a later episode?

I sure hope so.

Another good episode. Why did Kally have to go first...I thought it would be Uta.

Animus said earlier that it might end with a JilxFatina pairing instead of a JilxKaaya pairing. As each episode passes, I seem to agree more and more. Especially when I saw the scene when Fatina said goodbye to Jil. Jil was being smitten, and it looks like Fatina is going to be in for a rollercoaster ride now that things have become really serious. I can see her image of Neeba declining in the near-future.

hmm well it was a good episode...the mised up pairing of characters worked well in their development.
and i'm really curious what Jil's fate will be if he conquers the tower and all...doesn't seem to be good...(blue haired girl and kaaya seem to know it all, but aint sharing it)

well i got to agree about the Neeba image, as she doesn't agree on how Neeba accepts Kally's death...the pairing well..i'm not so sure about that, atm it seems Kaaya has Jil wrapped around her finger pretty well

I too liked the mixed pairings, and I kind of wished they had done a little more with it, but either way, it was a good episode.
I can't wait to see Kaaya's betrayal (because that has to come, right?) and what it consists of.

Kally's dead was too sudden! At least I definitely didn't expect that. Plus I think his death was a bit weird because his eyes turned black >.> (or was that his make-up? lol)

I can also sense that Jil will be together with Fatina in the end.

Oh well, as for the plot, there's still a lot left unsaid. x_x

I'm not quite sure how the episode started O_o but yeah...definitely adds to the "kaaya betrayal thing" brought up in the last episode..or atleast I thought that chick was talking about her. My prediction is that Jil's team and Neebas team will join up since Kally died, I mean three people aint gonna make it.

Looks strange to me that Kaaya and Jil hold hands in the opening if they aren't destined to be paired at the end of the series... It would be the only Japanese series to give false information in its opening and it would go against the development of the characters too, so I don't expect a Jil X Neeba pairing personnally.

Same here. I really enjoy anime shows which suprise me and remain unpredictable. And "Tower of Druaga" falls into this genre for me. ^^

From my point of view it can not end with an Jil X Fatina pairing, since the hilarious first episode showed what is NOT going to happen throughout the show!

Well, I have to reconsider this, since Kally was dying after he said he wants to bring wealth to his poor hometown. Also Ahmeys former lover was killed after confessing to her. Both scenes are similar to the parodic "marriage => death" scenes from the first episode. So all in all there are still some cliches in this show ;)

Jil X Neeba? o.O
Well at least it would be quite a surprise!

The reflection in the water was the setup for the fake Kally to attack Neeba and Kaaya.

With Neeba's strength and knowledge of the tower, they could make it. But Jil's team and Neeba's team joining up will probably happen. It will probably set things up for Neeba betraying Jil as one of the 3 betrayals. Which leaves no clues to the the third one.

Though I still think he will come back I don't think it has to do with his reflection... after all that was already explained. Mirrors and reflections crate those reversed evil clone things.

MIght seem silly but Ithink Fatina is the one person Jil can trust, I don't know.

And Kally can't be dead, he lived in the fantasy, he lived.

Fatina's been annoying the whole time but it seemed like she was slightly less annoying this episode. Kally's death was way too sudden, but the fight with Pazuz was pretty cool.

Overall it was better than the last episode, but still meh.

Here is what I think. 1. Kaya should not betray Jil but the illusion is very dirty on her thoughts because of her role and class. Priestess are extremely empathic so illusions with emotional value can be dangerous. In the end Jill might change her perhaps she may betray him three times but the message he got in the 8th episode would mean not to give because in the end Kaya may be his eternal partner even though the betrayals. I still wonder what is in the coffin other than a forbidden weapon? I still think Neeba and Fatina might betray Jill.

Lots of things happening.
I wonder what was so interesting in that coffin that Kally had to die for. Kaaya's mysterious personality shows yet again and some of Ahmeh's past.
All in all it was ok.

Wow, I really like how they portrayed Kally's death. Wasn't drawn out or anything. It just sorta happened. Kinda gives credence to the fact the tower is deadly.

This episode makes it seem like the story will actually get good.

On another note: I always watch the OP in hopes of seeing an anime like it.

Good episode. I agree with unlisted above, loved how Kelly just died without any drama. It was, how should I put this... really realistic. Shame that he died.

The pairing were interesting, their personality was fleshed out more. And of course, I loved Fatina's legs in that scene when she was talking with Jil. What, just stating my opinion :3

Kally :( I'm not sad because the character died. I'm sad because I can't hear Ishida Akira's voice anymore.
