THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Tiffa ends up confessing to Saito and they end up kissing. The result of that kiss gives Saito a second rune across his chest. Harem anyone? After a little chase and being cornered, Louise calls out for Saito. They manage to reconnect and Louise opens a portal for escape. Louise is not happy about Saito having a second rune from kissing Tiffa and ends with the usual "Baka inu!" spiel.

Not a whole lot of ecchi. Just mainly shots of Tiffa's nipples poking through her clothes and a quick boob grope during the kiss scene. Getting closer and closer to the end.

This episode is definitely how good stuff should be done. A nice start to only lead into Saito getting jailed for usual misunderstanding and whatnot. Is that like the 3rd time he goes to jail or the second time in all the seasons? Well in any case that kiss in the following,

Grrrrrrr got a little jealous there but it could be helped Saito was a fool who jumped by mistake into that ritual of Tiffa and now he is stuck with her and Louise till he dies. I say he knocks both and everyone is happy. 1/4 elves mini Saitos and normal ones. Sounds about not bad. Considering the house he has and all sure. Loads of kids and a rich land of farming. Sounds to me like a good life. Henrietta and Tabitha are a problem since both are Rulers of a country but so is Tiffa. She is a Princess from Rondo so one day her kingdom may be rebuild. In any case yeah that kiss. Damn can’t do anything about I have nothing against Tiffa but it did not sound right. Then again I am a heavy Louise x Saito shipper and besides that Tiffa could never = to the feelings between the 2. Never ever. That cannot be denied.

About the fan service, taking it in more serious tone one can wonder what can it be with Tiffa’s nipples poking out like that suddenly in the spoiler
much more in this episode as of the fad?
I will at best assume the ritual wanting to be completed is making her sexually aroused. Perhaps that does not apply to all familiar in terms of love bonding and closeness but certainly it can be with a familiar that is human. So basically anyone who does not complete the ritual with a human familiar may be subject to intense side effects of lust. Of course that is just a IMO but what else can it explain it? Nothing other than of course fan service purpose.

The other fan service is in general some breast groping but that’s a long time fad of this series so no surprise just a mention.

Now what I really loved of the episode is all the different character designs of the Elves. Those were quite nice IMO. Loads of different ones. The other thing is the plot. Wonderful betrayal of that lunatic of a person who did. As a result Luctiana and Arie escaped along with Vitartial. Arie was badly wounded despite he makes it back with Luctinana.

I am still WTF at Louise actually doing that portal. Was there no way to do anywhere else? It looked like to me it was possible but they just conveniently made it like that. Anyway the end was hilarious with Louise/Siesta and Tabitha chasing after Saito.

So I guess now is the time to build a huge family and have the power of DFC and Big Breasts. Sounds to me like a nice life if the Peace starts up.

So what can Lifdrasil do? I can't remember. I only know that he is the Heart of God.

Four episodes left to resolve everything. Too short. I'll bet on Harem end.

The anime had finally passed the light novels, which are still at vol 20 and haven't reached the point of Saito and Tifania already been rescued.

Looks like a new arc will start but it's unknown if this arc is supposed to be in the not yet published last 2 volumes. If not then the anime will have an ending different from the light novel series. I think the anime will have a harem ending because the eyecatches since ep 7 showed the girls who are in love with Saito in wedding dresses.

Liked the episode; so does this mean Harem ending? two runes, familiar of two, so does that mean he has two powers; since his rune with Louise allows him mastery over weapons right; so what does the rune with Tiffa allow him to do. Seems like next episode with be mostly fanservice mixed with jealousy; but from the episode title I'm guessing that means Tabitha is becoming queen.

If only there were 24 episodes for the final season :(

This episode deserves a 5/5 since it had a bit of everything :p

Learning abit more about the reasons why the elves were so fearful of the 'devils power' was very interesting and of course Saito got to kiss Tiffania o.O

In terms of looks only Louise probably stands a chance though. It feels like the ending won't end up with Saito with either girl, perhaps some open ended harem type end.

..The first 2-3 seasons were pretty much Saito and Louise getting together. This season is Saito cheating on Louise with -everybody-.

I can't take no more of this shitty season.. I'll pretend it never happened and drop it now. 8 and 9 scores for the first few seasons and 3 for this one.

Saito's Hand Rune: Mastery of weapons
Julio's Rune: Mastery over all creatures.
Sheffield's Rune: Mastery over magical objects.
Saito's Chest Rune: ?

I don't think the novels ever explained what Saito's Chest Rune does(Saito had just become Tifa's familiar at the end of the last novel). It could be some kind of power over people as Saito's Chest Rune did give Louise the energy to hold open the portal.

This episode was more enjoyable than the last episode since there was more of a plot development, though nothing about the jet seemed to arise this episode...

So is there currently no indication on what the 2nd rune is for?
Also, the jet or w/e it was, what was with that? Does that have any more significance later on or no :|?

Plus, doesn't it feel like the episodes aren't 24 minutes long? :<

Also, next episode... hmm

There's only 4 episodes left to the end...

And I'm feeling more and more disapponted. I have not waited 3 or 4 years for the last season, I have just waited 3 months, so, I feel sorry for those who waited that long!

The ending will be stupid, I bet that!

It will have a harem ending, and I liked the possibility that Saito returns to Japan with Louise, but I see that will not happen...

I loved all the seasons, except this one, this is just stupid and annoying, and the plot development is even slower!

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one bored to tears by this season. I used to love, love, love Zero (as evidenced by my Fairy Bustier Louise figure <33), but this season is just pushing it. Practically every episode we have at least one scene where Saito and Louise affirm their "Love" for each other, and yet Saito still encourages these other girls to keep vying for his affections? What a dog. Hell, I loved Tiffa coming into this season, but now that she's become just another harem-ette, I've lost all respect for her. The same applied to Tabitha last season, too. Don't even get me started on the whole, "If he's not married, he's free game!" message. UGH.

This season can't end soon enough. It would be a waste not to watch it until the end by this point, but I have a feeling the conclusion's only going to leave a rotten taste in my mouth...

Indeed, I first thought it was a shame it was only 12 episodes long, now I'm grateful for that. Dunno why I expected any better after season 3... I still have to watch it to the end to rate it fairly (fairly low I mean).

Is It Only Me Or The Series Is Getting Rushed? If They're Really Adapting It Base On The LN, Then There Are So Many Missing Parts On It. I'm Quite Disappointed.


What Am I Expecting From The Anime (Spoiler For Those Who Haven't Read The LN)...


Surely Pretty Rushed... 12 Episodes Seems Not Enough.

I am really depressed with the season. I was looking forward to a happy ending but all that has happened was Saito cheating on louise. Sure she might not be Favorited but now saito is reduced to being a douche and all the girls as well. Nice kiss, but a bad character development.

ahaha, maybe that's why I was less annoyed.

And we get sexy elves like Vidalsha (I NEVER caught his name in 3rd season). Nothing on the aircraft though ;(

Hmm, Tiffa/Saito didn't seem too bad. Unlike Herietta, at least Tiffa's feelings are understandable..but darn Saito, he's always too compassionate to touch and kiss on other girls.

Heheh, tried to turn on your heel huh Eri?

I wonder what that Chest rune does.

It's sad the series seems to become less and less deep with each episode.


I really liked the way the first three seasons built, but it just feels like its slowly falling apart. But then I just didn't see that before. I was hoping for an interesting ending, but if there are only a couple of episodes left? And no ending in sight? meh.

Wow... Back in episode 7, As soon as I heard "I Say Yes" background music, I know things are going to get better... And this episode makes me soo happy... Very very happy.

THIS!!!

THIS EPISODE IS THE ZERO NO TSUKAIMA I LOVE!

Serious theme as the base, minor ecchi involvement, and engaging plotline, discovering real world items such as guns and planes etc etc...

THIS IS WHAT ZERO NO TSUKAIMA SHOULD BE LIKE ALL THE FREAKING TIME!!!

WHY CANT ZERO NO TSUKAIMA BE LIKE THIS ALL THE TIME????! WHY??????!!!!! WHY THE WASTE OF TIME ECCHI EPISODES!!!!!
