IT’S PRINCESS NO RONDO’S FINAL EPISODE! Don’t be fooled, though. The title isn’t what you really think it is. Let’s just say it’s one savvy way to wrap things up.

With Tabitha suddenly rescued (without even a fight?!), the group heads back towards Tristain, where Gallian infulence cannot reach them. On the way Louise had a dream: She lost all her powers, and Tabitha’s trying to take the lead on Saito. Of course, dream or no, she’s stripped of her powers. That’s that.

Now, this is where Tabitha is successfully wooed. You can probably see why a lot of people who read the novels see the current season as a great development to the storyline. The entire season, albeit the introduction and recurrence of new and old characters, is focused on a focal point that will affect everyone’s lives, especially Saito’s, Louise’s, and now Tabitha’s. Too bad there wasn’t much Julius air time. I was waiting for him to intervene at whatever there is, too…

PimpSaito has aquired a Tabitha.

It was revealed that the Jormugand/Giant is actually a big armored whatever. As in BIG! Sheffield is able to exert direct control over it via her powers. It also seems to be able to utilize Ancient Magic as it was able to stop one of Tabitha’s javelins like the way Nephthys does. And because of its size, any amount of magic may not be that sufficient.

And its eye looks like a vagina…

I never thought I would screw up my schedule by not posting this one up. And since it’s late, I’ll be quick.

Quickcrotch for quick quickies!

Henrietta’s emotional decline worsens (yeah, she’s emo alright) as Saito’s group plan for an expedition to Galila. Hiding within Scarron’s pub, they plan something to make this possible. The deal is to drive Ostrand to Germania to seek refuge on its territories, as well as providing Saito some cover and time to pass the guards and leave Tristain safely. Colbert, Siesta, and the other Undines stayed at Tristain to retrieve Ostrand, while the rest of the crew disguised themselves as commoners (it made me MONMON NOMNOM), which made them successfully pass Tristain’s borders.

Sweet! Halftime Report!

Well, I’ve got nothing much to say. Just some complaints, some shout-outs, probably something to clear out to that stupid Censorship-san (like, how does “GET THE FUCK OFF MY ECCHI SHOWS!” sound?). But yeah, I do have a few points to note.

I don’t really have complaints about JC Staff’s continued depiction of the anime, and how it’s striving hard to be as canon to the novel as possible. It’s just that sometimes, there are inconsistencies that leave me hanging. Such an example would have to be Derf using powers to escape into Westwood Forest with Saito.  In the novel, Derf controlled Saito’s body and moved it away from the battlefield, while in the anime, Derf simply teleported Saito into Tifa’s woods. Amazingly, it did work out for the series since there isn’t really anything wrong with the means, so I don’t know if this would count as a complaint or a compliment.

“Character Development” is always welcome.

SAITO! TABITHA! MANBOOBS! This backlog ep that I haven’t watched ever since I had another free Monday feels like I need to take a shit off work and do something for the leftover eps. Nevertheless, it’s about time things got interesting.

Way to start an episode.

It all started on a bet between Siesta and Louise. The bet is whether Saito would be able to find Louise in the upcoming Sleipnir ball. Ah, to elaborate further, the Sleipnir Ball (which I think is dedicated to the eight-legged steed of Odin) is a dance party of sorts wherein you transform and masquerade as your ideal person. You can be a hero, a princess of a country, or even a hot momma, and it wouldn’t matter if you’re male. At least they’d give homosexuality a piece of that.

The condition is, if Saito fails to find Louise, Siesta will have no conditions getting “private time” with her master. If Saito succeeds though, he gets Louise’s part of the bargain. WATERMELONS OR WASHING BOARDS? You chose.

MANWHORE… MUST… KILL…

This? ON A FRIDAY?! Boy, am I really out of time to even thinking of that. Wait, wrong. Totally wrong. Did I say wrong?

Anyways, this ep’s all about Tabitha and Sylphid. Screw Louise, screw Tifa. Those two aren’t even up to the feat that Tabitha pulled off. Besides, this IS the first time Tabitha did pull such a feat. So much for the implication since the frist ep’s OP. And Sylphid’s also getting some development, too.

Now, if there’s only more Siesta every ep, that may balance the equation… a bit… perhaps…

Distrust stirs Saito and Louise as the former was forced to sign a contract about boobies. Of course Saito won’t. Any male won’t. He’ll just be a dog tied with a leash like the animal he is! Pissed, Saito leaves, and heads to Colbert’s room: the room of the person the believes him, and the person he believes in. So yeah, let’s admit it. A lot of people somewhat loved that half-bald AN HERO professor because of his relations to Saito, and his so-called “change of heart” for the sake of everyone, especially Saito.

AN HERO will live in our hearts. A 5-second voice time in commemoration.

He then wakes up, goes out of the room, and finds the Undine Knights headquarters brimming with girls and gifts. Seems the girls are taking their time with the members after the previous ep with Beatrice. They also introduced (subtly) a new recruit for the Knights: Gimli, a green-haired cute guy (that’s according to my preferences for one) with the J.R.R. Tolkien written all over it. Oh, great. First there’s Old Osmond for Gandalf, AND NOW THIS?!

Sylphid had a bit of her time too asking Saito suddenly for food, and happily eating it. Now the implications  of affection are complete, we just need a whole ep for an appearance. Sagematt can just die of disbelief, hahaha!

OM NOM NOM!
