^ i laughed at that.

Looks like the finale is fast approaching, the biggest and last case. Although they didn't say what it was exactly O.o did they?

All the background of Cordelia has been given now too.

Just wondering, if Cordelia is aware of whats going to happen, why not just run away with Victorique? Is getting revenge that important to her? more than her daughter's safety
Also, I guess when they refer to second storm is something different to WWI as it would be 15 years to early.Which make sense as they will try to stop it and it would be too unrealistic for two kids to prevent WWII from happening O_o
^Cordelia mentioned she believed in Victorique's power to defeat them. She's not a good mother if you ask me but at least she loves her and she's confident about her strength. I also agree with your second statement. WWII is inevitable XDD I guess that would be the time their future will come true :( that would be a sad ending or bittersweet perhaps.
I think Cordelia is as good of mother as she could in her circumstances. I think it's admirable that she loves her daughter despite all that happened to her just for the sake of Victorique's birth. And she's watching over her. I like to believe that at least.

As for the WWII, I agree that it is gonna happen. Perhaps they'll be able to delay it for 15 years? If that is so, this is not the time they'll be separated. Besides, the old man in the village said "many years from now" anyway so I'm not too worried.

I still don't get what Marquis wanted Victorique for. It has been hinted she's a tool he wants to use for the "second storm". Although I have no idea what that means. Of course it's related to her intelligence but I still can't seem to figure it out. But I wonder... Were his plans simply based on what Leviathan said to him? About siring "a woman of extraordinary ability". Since Leviathan was a fake alchemist... did he know what he was talking about when he said that? Then again, he was dying so he didn't have reasons to make things up...

The Marquis just became my favourite character, right next to Grevil. Pouring alcohol on a screaming woman giving birth to a rape babby, can this show even do anything more to be great?


Wtf. Just Wtf.


My reaction... fkkk that! Your just wrong...
Cordelia had such a sad past, performing as a ..ugh. being in a brothel? and then being raped by that ugly sick shit and then being in pain and humiliation while giving birth to Victorique. T_T
That Brain Rosco is my favorite character next to Victorique

So if we recap everything we know.
The second "storm" is coming (WWII), Kujoe is from Japan and is most likely goign to be called home to fend for his homeland.

Victorique have to prove her strenght, her intelligence that is, in order to survive, according to her mom.
Im imagining something like this, Victorique is forced into cooperating with the allied forces, and in the end she will end the war by helping the americans construct the atomic bomb using her intelligence.

Kujoe's hometown is still unknown if I remember correctly, so there's a possibility that he's from Nagasaki or Hiroshima that end up getting blown by Vic's bomb.

Possiblity?

Something about a Queen, what's with Cordelia calling Victorica her "soul"? Is this some kind of Gray Wolf thing? Yea ... obviously I'm paying lots of attention here :S

Don't even get me started on that scene. Talk about killing the mood. :P


I was like 0_o when i heard those lines. She's dirty? WTF? Stupid phrasing there.

I really liked this episode. Maybe the best for me. It was nice seeing and learning a little about the past.
So Victorique's father is a complete crazy fuck. Yeah it looks like no good end will come if he doesn't die. So cruel to share half your DNA with that guy.
It's good that her mother didn't turn out to hate her daughter because of what she had been threw.

I loved this episode. Cordelia is now one of my favourite characters. She's been through so much but she's still so strong-willed and the way she's moved by her love towards te daughter she gave birth to unwillingly... it's just beautiful. And I loved her story with Brian!

Worst lines ever.

That Marquis guy really need to be dead by the end of this series. He raped Cordelia, locked her for a year, separating a mother and her daughter and sent her to some psychiatric hospital....He is even worst than Kujo!

Going that far just because he wanted to mix their bloodlines? Marquis, you total a-hole.

On a side note, I wonder if the grey wolves are people with a genetic disposition to very high IQ (like some cases of Asperger's Syndrome) o.o

Marquis. GO. TO. HELL. Raping a woman and then stealing her kid? Asssssss. >:(

5/5 for this episode because I loved the flashback part from Cordelia. I'm starting to wonder if I would enjoy this series if it was Cord and Brian instead of our current two main characters. I SHIP THEM OKAY. Cord and Brian are at least both equally strong and smart. LOL

I agree with everone else. The academy has pretty much idiots studying there, minus Cecile, Avril and Kujo obviously.

If i was there, I would torture the Marquis to absolute despair before killing him off with the bloodiest way imaginable. That SOB deserves more than simply death. Never had I seen a character that revolting to me to this day, a year after watching this.

I have to praise Cordelia for her strong will, despite the hard labor she went through to give birth to Victorique and being separated for this long. Kudos to such strong woman.

The Marquis turned out to be an absolute asshole who is even worse than I imagined. What a tragedy they all went through because of his insanity.
Indeed... I thought he had somehow maliciously seduced her but he didn't even bothered with such pleasantries. He abducted, raped, confined, separated her from her daughter and disposed of her to a sanatorium... he definitely earned a horrible karmic death.

My bet is Grevil will be the carrier of that judgement. He'll continue to obey his father to betray him at the most critical point. I can't see him agreeing with his father's ways... besides, he said it himself, the hair drill is nothing, he knows that what he owes Victorique is worth a lot more than that.


Don't you mean that

his drill will break through the heavens?

Sorry. I had to.

But yeah. That so called father is a big ass, and needs to get drilled.

Argh, that father of hers is despicable. You'd have to see the episode to believe it because words cannot describe it here.

Now I can see why Cordelia and Brian Roscoe want revenge on that sleazeball so badly. I hope Kujo finds and frees Victorique soon.

But really, stone slab? Chains? Wtf? It's like he's trying so hard to be a bad guy here. There's not really any need to chain a woman in labor. It's not like she's going anywhere, seriously.

I agree with you, that was a little bit over the top, causing the anime to become more melodramatic than it normally would. Maybe some screaming at her with her legs and arms maybe TIED up not CHAINED UP to a stone slab. Maybe a bed to increase a successful baby delivery? A bit unrealistic because it was exaggerated.

So Albert de Blois kidnapped and raped Cordelia. What a huge cunt.
What an awful life Cordelia had. But now, Brian role and why he's so cold toward Victorique is more clear. He loved Cordelia and Victorique represent Cordelia suffering and his own failures.

Cecile attempt to protect Victorique was cute :P
But in the end, Victorique is taken away, again, and Kujo wasn't there to protect her, again.

All those soldiers must mean that a war is coming. But I don't get it, since the war started late 1939 and the story is happening in 1924. Does that mean that they will create a fictive World War setting? A World War that never happened?

The dance perfomance was quite cheerful :D

Cordelia had to endure something horrible, but even something terrible as that brought forth her daughter, who is beloved by her despite what happened. The whole circumstances make it really touching for me.

So in the end the prophecy occured and Victorique and Kujou were seperated, but I hope not permanent.

Until now I was thinking that they had a relationship or something like that...but after this episode it's clear, he is a soab, I hope he dies...he raped her, kept her captive in a jail.

Well, there goes any sympathy I have reserved for Marquis Blois out the window. I’ll always wait and see what the antagonists have to say before passing any judgment but how could you excuse raping a woman just to have a child for your deluded dreams. It’s very clear now Blois sees Victorique as a tool and a weapon but what I’m afraid is how Victorique at some level seem to buy the fact that she can’t loved and isn’t loved.
