A chance for the girl to feel "love" through two main guys, who seems to love her too much now and would do anything to save her. Though she still don't know about love after this ep. Two guys also decided to overcome their fears of or caused by their Arcana power.

lol @ two threesome dates.

The duel is coming up next ep. (final ep.!)!

Ya, this series is pretty much a false advertising and presenting the duel in the finale rather than its subsequent episodes. I didn't expect much out of J.C. Staff anyways.



Hopefully the upcoming duel will be good.

Man, will it really be the last episode?I thought Dante said "Just kidding!" in the preview. I still think the plot is a bit rushed. Can they honestly jam the entire duel into one episode?

I dont like the fact that the duel is gonna be in just one episode but at least its finally here. Should be interesting and maybe we'll actually see some action.

This anime is way too slow, I wanted to see the duel from the beginning but they have this plot and character development with all these "sweet" moments that makes me sick sometimes. Is Felicita gonna pick anyone yet?? First ep of this anime was the best, thats why I continued watching it, but don't waste your time on this like I did every sunday.

seriously...this show really turned out to not be what it was advertised to me.

hate the fact that the duel is the last episode and how it was presented in the first episode as a huge thing but was always on the back burner plot wise. oh well. not every series can be a winner.

and true. the most interesting characters are supporting > >

I can't believe it's the last episode, it's so rushed. I definitely love the game a lot more.

I wish they gave more light to Luca. It's probably just my character bias, but I think his past is a lot more interesting than Nova and Liberta's. Not to say they aren't interesting characters, I love them too.

LOL LUCA IT'S OKAY LET ME HUG YOU.

With how close they are Ojou should just let them get together and not choose anyone. Anyway a really awesome episode, as a Nova Liberta fan this anime has never failed to deliver on them getting screentime and really enjoyed both having some sort of conclusion to their respective path lines for their motivations and problems. I guess an S2 is not likely.

Oh and the Arcana Duello is tomorrow!

I do not know why Nova does not just ask Luca to wake his parents up - Luca has the power of Temperance, which negates the Arcana Powers of other people. On the other hand, Liberta also potentially has the power to wake up Nova's parents.

I find it funny that I'd be able to say, "If you want to watch this anime, just watch the first episode and then skip ALL the way to the last episode. Not even kidding."
The little (if any) character development and lack of anything remotely interesting happening in this anime really bugs me, because this could've been at least a mediocre fighting shounen with the duel taking place throughout the whole anime. That's what the first episode presented itself to be, then you remember that this is a shoujo.

WOW!! Well I was ALMOST right they were going to cram the duello into the fucking ((pardon my language)) LAST two episode but no only ONE episode x_x; I am thinking they may NOT end it properly and go for a second season, which would be AMAZING even if the show wasn't so great because there is soo much potential for a second season because they left all of it out of this season but.. Because of the ratings they would probably NEVER make a second one x_x; soo this sucks.


As for the episode, funny/cute, but as I knew it, it's between Liberta and Nova x_x; WHYY?? I got to see my Pace and debito at least in the end whoa do they look pumped it made me excited <33.

Things I learned Jolly just loves Mondo and doesn't give a crap, Dante obviously never wanted Fel, Luca I dunno, more interested in being her butler. So this is going to be duel Debito, Pace, Liberta, And Nova.

Someone tell me why I always wait and wait and wait for sundays, this show still excites me and I don't know why. =[ Maybe because of the amazing drawings and hopes.

Liberta sailing the ship I pictured a GIANT pirate hat on him, he looked out of place for some reason, probably the way there dressed, second Nova with a fishing pole does not go. I am just soo upset they took my hopes away with the choices being the main two, I still have hope for a beautiful plot twist. DEBITO/PACE GOO GO GO OO

Anyone wish to talk more about this show please send a message!

I don't know about you guys but I feel like Nova and Liberta got more relationship development than them paired up with Fel. And I'm not even a Yaoi fangirl. LOL It just felt like Fel was in the way of their bromance. x_x

Idk who to root for. I'm a bit more on Nova's side atm.

If this does get a second season, then I can see them doing all of these filler eps before the Duello...

Otherwise? Thanks for wasting my time Animation studio;

At least I had Debito to drool over and Jolly being a troll to amuse me. I also like Pace and Luca.

Fuck yeah.

Gonna go punch Liberta right in the face, and this is how:
1. Buy an HD Monitor
2. Download HD image of Liberta and put it on full screen.
3. Punch screen multiple times, rinse and repeat.
4. ????
5. Profit?
6. Results vary on how much money you got. May repeat as much as you want. New monitor costs may vary.

Guys, it's from an otome game... it's not a shounen so what did you even expect?
Am I the only one that check what kind of thing is the source material before even starting to watch a show? Never expected much action from this, obviously it would focus on relationship of the character and love before focussing on fighting, that's what otome game are about.

Wait, so guns are allowed at the tournament?
Sure, this guys all got "superpowers", but that doesn't really make (most of them) immune to gunfire, does it? And the skills Nova, Liberta and a few others displayed so far, wasn't really on bullet dodging/blocking level.
Nonsense incoming for sure. Like Debito is most likely to face someone, who's arcana powers conveniently helps him against the bullets.

btw, aren't the 3 protagonists suppossed to fullfill pretty important jobs? (especially Nova)
All they do is minding their own business all the time. Nowadays they would get fired hard.

Gawd, I'm glad this'll be over next week.

And for the argument "this isn't shounen blah blah". Why make it look like it has shounen elements in the first place then? So it looks "cool"? The fact the series needs this, is pretty pathetic.

And I do like myself some Shojo every now and then. Nothing wrong with that.
But this series fails miserably even at that. Full force.

ugh once again the focus went back to libertad and nova. this "reverse harem" is starting to look like a yaoi, or shounen. in a way... And the duello that I've been waiting for since EPISODE 1 is only going to be the last ep, and ONE ep. :/ ugh...
It was too slow, and now the duello will be too rushed.

They wasted too many episodes on the back stories of the supporting cast, and nova and libertad. We didn't even get to see Felicita's story from when she was little. maybe some couple of scenes, but had to do with nova. And of course the wheel of fortune story, but that's it.

I agree, it is false advertising. And the description as well. I only watched it because it was reverse harem, and the story revolved AROUND FELICITA. and it does in some way, but most of the episodes she was just cast aside, or didn't appear at all. WTF.

I had hopes for this. The story was actually good, and unique. but no, episode 2-8 blah, episode 9 great! episode 10 eh, ep 11 blah, ep 12??

still...ugh i hate to admit it, but is a big disappointment.
