What a surprise! It's another Rumia getting targeted and kidnapped episode
This is yet another arc that hugely involves Rumia. I liked her, but I don't like this kind of treatment on a character that I like. I... gradually likes Sisti better now..
Let me guess, in next ep, that revival something magic will succeed and Glenn will come to the rescue. AGAIN.
At least we get to see an actual magic battle in this episode. Based Albert.

And I can't stop watching the preview scene over and over again. So cute.

The 180 change in RE=L was just so forced.Seriously just betraying them like that was just done for the sake of being edgey.

The series manages to deliver another outstanding episode as it races towards its climax. Re=L becomes a more compelling character when she gets angry and confused, giving Ari Ozawa the opportunity to show off her talent. I don't read light novels, so I had no idea that Re=L had a brother. Glenn getting stabbed was unexpected, but I guess the show needed a way for the other characters to shine without his help.

Sure the pacing is rather fast but by no means did it come out of nowhere. It's been implied pretty heavily that Re=l see's Glenn as a replacement for her dead brother. With what supposedly happened to him and the circumstances regarding her birth gives her a clear reason for her protective and childish personality.

Looks like we are saving Rumia once again lol christ doesnt she learn not to let her guard down by now... i knew Riel was gonna turn on Glenn on the beach there. Kinda figured he wasnt dead though. Same with Rumia.

Albert is pretty bad ass. And calm. I like him. As for Riel's brother...i kinda have a feeling it isnt actually her brother. But thats just a theory.

Only thing i dont like about this show is all the close death calls, it makes each time less intense because you know they are gonna survive. Still good overall though, am very pleased with the balance of cute comedy and serious story telling

Well now we gotta kill Re:L too. She's way too unstable now. Fell for their mind control and almost killed Glenn. I was hoping for them to resolve this but I like this turn of events. Now we wait for next week.

I don't get why you have to badmouth an anime in order to make another seem better. It's like you're saying something is good just because something else is bad. No one should even compare who watches them lol they're way different

Please don't turn Rumia into Princess Peach... I am already sick of her being kidnapped.

Re=L still intrigues me, but her change in character was freakin sudden. Everythings feels a bit rushed right now to be honest. I guess she never was the most stable of characters, but this is going all the way. One episode ago she said, that she couldn't live without Glenn, now she straight up kills him? I guess it's a "if I can't have him, nobody can thing". I don't like it. She's still the most interesting character though.

What was going on in Sisti's flashback? Something in her past prevented her from taking action against Re=L?

When they brought up reviving dead people I was certain that there would be an evil mage who was still going with the project, even though it was supposed to be shut down. Well that's not really the case. I'm glad I was wrong, but I'm not too happy with how it will be utilized now either.

I think I have a problem with this show's voice acting. When the crazy maid bitch (too lazy to check the name sorry) was releasing that one attack, she was far away and seemingly screaming, but the voice sounded like she was just calmly talking right next to the mic...maybe it's just me idk

I don't mind Rumia being the damsel in distress, she definitely fits the role. However there needs to be a time where she actually fights back and fucks someone up. That or she helps Glenn in the process as well.

The series has surprised me fully, and Re=L really pissed me off. Like I know its the Cliche brainwash scene with her brother but god damn they got me really good with this one. DAMN YOU FOR MAKING HER LOOK SUPER SWEET WHEN EATING THOSE STRAWBERRY CAKES!!!

Glenn got that CPR though.

Still ship Glenn and Rumia.

The resurrection stuff were pretty interesting and Re=L joining the dark side.

Overall it was a good episode but the plot was really predictable and it was giving away too much information about what would happen not just in this episode, but in the next too... Also, her name is Re=L, I mean, come on guys!

Well, she is a walking Nuclear Reactor/ Philosopher Stone that can instantly refill magic on anyone by simple touch. Anyone with interest would like to secure her once they know that information.

Did they even explain this in the show yet, can't remember. If not tho then spoiiiler.

Either way, I still think it's a little repetitive to keep doing it constantly. I find it a little lazy tbh but I understand it's probably to keep the plot/action moving, either wise there would probably be no reason for any of these conflicts to take place really.

Great episode, pretty impressed with what happened...
Can't believe that Re=L did that. Anyway...i initially thought that she was the one that was used in that revive program... but when i saw Sistine's memories i thought that it was Rumia...so it was one of them, i know that being Re=L makes more sense, but that throwback...
Glenn should win the award of "never dies" xD But to be honest, i am very impressed with this anime
At least we got that great ed pic :3 And that next episode preview hahaha

After keeping up with this anime for a few episodes, I feared the continuation of decline in quality, and my worst fears are coming true. I actually thought this would be a hilarious comedy to watch but now, it's trying to be "psychological" with Re=L but failing hard at it. Now that there is no turning back, I am just praying it sticks to its dark tone for the rest of the anime for a chance to improve in quality.

Yeah and her brother's eyes changed oddly as he was persuading her. Seems pretty clear that she's been brainwashed (and traumatized) which seems about the only reasonable route for her to be able to return from this without everyone hating her anyway.

Also betting its not even her real brother, after all he's teamed up with a necromancer who is clearly interested in forbidden revival techniques and such. At the very least I'm sure he's been altered somehow.

Have to say I think this show would have been better off sticking with a lighter tone...

Because of Rumia's special ability of being an amplifier. Essentially, when she cooperates with a magician and touches him, she can massively increase the power of magic. And the research society has some plans for seriously ugly stuff, which Rumia could push to success.

I agree that it comes across as repetitive, but it's actually _logical_ for the enemies to go after her multiple times. And Rumia thankfully isn't your usual useless cry-alot-yell-for-the-hero damsel in distress.

This is probably the best episode of the series so far. I think Re=L's brother was revived through that revival life project.

Re=L at this point is basically a plot device, don't like her character at all. Rumia kidnapped AGAIN though, will she ever catch a break? :/

Well, despite his calm demeanor, he actually was rushing to save Glenn before it was too late. When Glenn stopped breathing, he immediately had to start the process. Hell, look at how he threw away the knife that he cut his finger with and telling Sistine to hurry and do CPR before they lose Glenn for good.

Hmm the research lab sure is located in a remote location but then again its to protect it i guess. Any mention of Glenn will end up distracting Re=L though. And also remind her of the fact that Glenn that she values was taken from her by Sistine and Rumia. Her hatred for them hasn't abated yet eh. Still its nice that Glenn realizes it was his mistake that caused this. Hmm so the lab was located in the middle of a valley eh. Quite the picturesque setting it has around it though. Lol it looks like the students had enough exercise already hiking to this location. Hmm so white alchemy combines healing magic with alchemy eh. Hmm fusing different animals together to create hybrids eh. Hmm its a difficult question that Rumia asked here though. Creating and changing life in order to understand how it works i guess is a notable goal but whether its ok to alter gods creation is really a difficult question. It also looks like Rumia is really affected by this as well. Lol that was a good explanation from Glenn and lol Sistine being both grateful for the explanation and yet cross that he butted in lol. Hmm so in essence its combining copies to make copies of a person thats dead eh. But in the end that copy is merely a copy and not that original person eh. Some research no matter how useful it will be to humanity should never be conducted though.

Hmm to think that the cult that they have been facing had stolen and had managed to perfect this forbidden research. As expected of a evil organisation. Sistine though looks really interested in this magic though. Does she want to bring someone back to life i wonder. Rumia is still affected by what happened with Re=L eh. Hmm just like Sistine to act on behalf of Rumia though. Re=l really believes that Sistine and Rumia took Glenn away from her eh. This will take some time to sort out though. Glenn does know whats causing this but he's not in a position to solve it as he will make it much worst. So really its up to Sistine and Rumia to help her really. Lol Rumia is back to her positive self after being told of why Re=L is acting like that by Glenn. Still its nice seeing Glenn take responsibility though. Hmm Re=L's brother suddenly appears in front of her when she's not her usual self eh. Seems that this is the cults plan eh. Lol Alberts response to Eleanor the fake maid was funny. Hmm so it seems that maid is more than a pretty face eh. And also a bit crazy as well. Hmm a necromancer eh. This will be tough for Albert to deal with i think. Or not with that lightning aoe spell. Though certainly powerful i think her role here is merely to delay Albert. Still Eleanor is a far more dangerous opponent than i thought she could be really.

I do think that Re=l values the friendship that she forged with Sistine and Rumia but this is offset by the belief that they also took Glenn who she values away from her. Hmm so Re=L was part of another organisation in the past and had managed to defect to the mage corps eh. Wow what a bloody evil and devious plan of theirs. To take advantage of her bond with her brother to get Re=l to kill Glenn so that her brother can be free. But man to think that Re=L would switch sides though. That was shocking. Meanwhile the fight between Albert and Eleanor is heating up. Hmm Sistine does think of Glenn a lot eh lol. Hmm man for Sistine to happen across this scene though. Its good that Rumia is just knocked out but man news about Glenn though is worst. Still despite her fear it was nice to see Sistine still try to take down Re=L though. Man Re=L's expression there though is really ice cold. Plus this is also having an effect on Sistine as well since she fears death or causing it. Combine this with her friendship that she and Rumia forged with Re=L. In that situation i think it will be normal for you to be scared. Yet to Sistine i guess this is something that she will need to overcome. Hmm Glenn's wounds really do look pretty bad actually. Still its nice that Albert is still calm despite what happened. Sistine needs to overcome her weakness and work to save Glenn. Hmm its nice to see Sistine find the courage she needed. So Albert planned to use revival to heal Glenn eh.
Hmm for Sistine to use CPR on Glenn in order to save his life eh.
Hmm i suppose the mouth to mouth resuscitation does count as a indirect kiss but its to save Glenn's life after all. Meanwhile Rumia is tied up again. Glenn's comeback from the dead will be most glorious next week i think. In time to show this arrogant fake brother.

Man this was such an intense episode and one hell of a twist in it.
Great combat scenes between Albert and Eleanor though and Sistine gets her first kiss as well lol. I do hope that Re=l realizes that she's being duped though and return to the fold.

Every damn episode past 3rd makes me like this series less and less.
Boring fights, predictable plot twists, lots of pointless talking I so despised in the older titles...
Seriously, why state that casting spells faster than the opponent is crucial to success, and then show mages take turns in the fight, patiently and silently waiting for the opponent to finish their spell?

Ok so... it kinda bothers me this new arc is also about Rumia, give her a break.
Anyway, world-building remains interesting so it doesn't really matter at the end of the day. I knew that Maid had some evil plans 8D

Btw, Ozawa-san nailed it as Re=L's seiyuu
