If the post-credit eyecatch screen for next week's episode doesn't have Favaro saying FAVA FAVA FAVA SOUL, I'm dropping this

That three way fight they had going on was pretty great. Confused how FAAAAAVAROOOOOO was Nina's mentor fairly recently if he's been locked up for what looks like a while. Didn't she say he told her to make contact with Bacchus right before she went to the capital?

How is it that even an episode with a lot of still shots and talking still feels like it's only lasts 10 minutes?
So, next episode is either the jailbreak (Nina and Jean in the cart as seen in the trailer) or Favaro's story with a setup for the jailbreak.

Yeah, I was amazed at how fast I accidentally ended up bingeing through all the episodes. I haven't watched anime in years but someone introduced this to me and I'm really digging it. Might catch Genesis next.

I'm also happy they aren't giving Azazel an ounce of sympathy here. They could have tried to make him an angsty character for Nina to fawn over but the show seems committed to holding his feet to the fire for all the dumb poo poo that he does. Hope they keep that up.

Also I think he looks ugly. His purple lips make him look like Grimice and Drizzt Do'Urden's love child or something.

I was enjoying the characters we had so far, but it was good to see that 'fro in a cell!

There are many things to like about this series, but one of my favourites are the silly next episode previews. I'm glad they're still doing those. Anyways, looking forward to the new episode tomorrow. Big prison break? Character backstories?

Beach episode, somehow.

Nina would not survive a beach episode! Clearly, it's going to be a school club day.

When she realizes who "Chris" is, is she going to immediately turn into a dragon out of embarrassment?

Is there no new episode today?

I love how she paid zero mind whatsoever to her ball and chain. It was basically just an ankle bracelet for her.

The only reason she hasn't walked out yet is that she doesn't realize she's not going to get paid for all this work.

Nina is truly the perfect protagonist, it's wonderful.

Also I'm glad Cerberus is enjoying her new job at Demon Hooters.

Potentially the King blamed him for the release of Bahamut in the first place, since it's possible nothing would have happened if he never helped Amira.

no one seemed to know that kaisar was one of the guys who beat bahamut. he was perfectly content to be a humble knight, but favaro might not be so inclined to keep his mouth shut.

I mean, I originally thought that but we'd have probably seen Favaro brag about it in dragon village. Or maybe not, I guess. Bahamut is a dragon.

Has Mugaro not washed his blood-soaked hair in about 5 years? The kid must stink.

I would have been irritated that it wasn't not the jailbreak episode except that it actually filled in stuff we needed to see.
So, is Mugaro/El the reincarnation of Michael?

I was disappointed Nina didn't immediately break the door to her cell after realizing they needed to escape.

I think I need to wait and binge watch all the episodes. Ever episode feels like 5 minutes not 20 and I want more. Huge props for pacing and story knocking it out of the park here. I feel like there has been little filler so far although that might just be because I find the setting and themes really interesting and might feel different on a rewatch.

maybe mugaro's hair is just really easy to dye. careful not to spill your orange juice on his head or else he'll become a walking tangerine

That episode was pretty heavy. It also still managed to go by in what felt like only five minutes. I'll admit, I was also disappointed at the start when I realised it wasn't the prison break episode, but I'm glad that's next week and that we got this.

That was real great poo poo. The episode really managed to show the depths of Jeanne's heroism, and was also pretty as hell - that shot of soldiers on wyverns dropping flares, for instance, was stunning.
