27/10Good episode. Kinda funny seeing Lawrence and Holo on the trip together. What is even more funnier is whenever they are in public, he would introduce Holo as his wife who has burned face in an attempt to seal her identity especially from the church people. Looks like Lawrence is about to enter into a deal with a merchant when Holo warned her that the man maybe be lying thus earning her a reward in exchange.

What will they uncover???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
48/10Awesome episode. It seems like someone is on to them after they made a deal in regards to the silver coin as evident by the loud banging on their inn room door. Luckily, Lawrence was able to escape from the grasp of those men however Holo ended up being captured as she decides to distract them to allow Lawrence to escape. Unfortunately, things didn’t get any better when Lawrence learned that Holo is captured by Medio Trading. Who was that mysterious person that walked in to meet the captured Holo???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
58/10Awesome episode. Good to see Lawrence was able to come up with a plan as well as convince the leader of Milone Trading Company to help him with his plan to rescue Holo before Medio Trading decides to hand Holo over to the church.

68/10Awesome episode. As they tried to escape through the underground waterway, their pursuers managed to corner them while injuring Lawrence which put them in a very tight spot.

Good to see everything work out in the end with Lawrence and Holo being able to continue their journey. Can’t wait to see what else awaits them in next week’s episode.
77/10Good episode. Looks like Holo and Lawrence arrived at another town where they visit a nearby merchant to stock up on items before continuing on their journey, Kinda funny seeing them negotiate with the merchant in order to get more for less. As they make their way through the countryside, they ran into another person where Holo feels uncomfortable. Who could she be???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
87/10Good episode. It turns out that she was Shepherd named Nora who offered to escort them through the fields while protecting them from the wolves. Kinda funny seeing Holo getting jealous at the idea as well as throughout their journey. We also learned quite a bit about Nora and Lawrence gave her some advise before parting ways. I guess we might see her again later down the line. Meanwhile, Lawrence gets in touch with someone at the local bar who seems to know him ever since he was little whilst Holo waits outside. I wonder what was going on in the town???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
97/10Good episode. Looks like Lawrence and Holo are on another trading mission where they are looking for buyers for the armour they acquired in the previous town. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances they are currently worthless as the expedition group that as supposed to use them ended up cancelling their trip at the last minute therefore it means Lawrence was betrayed once again. Making matters worst, no one is willing to help them. How will they get out of this mess???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
107/10Good episode. It seems like people are after him to collect debt which left both him and Holo in a tight spot as they are desperate to earn more money to pay off their debts. Furthermore, Lawrence lack of attention towards Holo’s feeling made her angry with him resulting in slight conflict. Thankfully they were able to bounce back and embark on another dangerous plan to earn money which was to smuggle gold by enlisting help from Nora. I’m honestly surprised that Nora went a long with it. Will they be successful???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
117/10Good episode. Good to see they made it through the Forest of Wolves despite having to be on guard whilst they rested along the way. After reaching the town, they managed to get the gold and now they must smuggle it carefully without getting caught. Unfortunately, as the pass through the forest, it started to rain and they already noticed the wolves were on to them. Holo and Lawrence stayed behind to hold back the wolves while Nora and merchant continues onwards. Unfortunately, Lawrence was once again ambushed and captured after he thought he was being rescued which means someone has betrayed him once again. I guess you can’t really trust anyone nowadays. Can’t wait to see what else awaits him in next week’s episode.
128/10Awesome episode. Once again Lawrence was saved by Holo which kinda makes me wonder why Holo still travels with him. Good to see Holo managed to catch up with those traitors and take them out along with saving Nora before meeting with the mastermind behind the plan to negotiate. Hopefully, everything will be in Lawrence favor from here on out in the coming episodes……..
137/10Good episode. Good to see Lawrence, Holo and Nora having a well deserved meal after their recent success. Suddenly, Holo collapsed where we learned that she caught a fever. I guess she must have been worn out from transforming as well as protecting Lawrence. Thankfully, Lawrence was able to give her something to help her recover while she contemplates her future. Can’t wait to see their journey continue in next week’s episode.

Good to see Alan was able to put a stop towards Bret and his father’s plans even though he ended up losing his father as he was completely consumed by the devil’s power until the very end. Kinda sad seeing Alan’s dad in that state until the very end but its somewhat understandable given that he still hasn’t overcome the loss of his wife. I wonder what happened to Bret?

As they did a little bit of digging, they learned that the Black Wolf knights were on to them. Unfortunately, they weren’t able to finish coming up with a plan when two of them were captured whilst they were in town. Can’t wait to see how they will handle this in next week’s episode.

WIND BREAKER :

EpisodeScoreComment/Impressions
18/10Awesome episode. Not sure if his past was the real reason for his current behaviour when he arrived at Furin to attend high school. Good to see him helping people out although kinda funny seeing his quirkiness when receiving gratitude from people. Soon he meets up with the rest of his schoolmates after being involved in a gang fight to which they won. Can’t wait to learn more about Sakura in the coming episodes………
28/10Awesome episode. Good to see Sakura somewhat getting along with the community despite his constant complaining. Later we meet with another member, Akihiko who seems to be clumsy and goofy guy but we soon learn what he is capable of after Sakura saved him from a gangster fight. Later we meet with the rest of his classmates who are all delinquents especially Kyoutarou who appears to pick a fight with Sakura. Can’t wait to see how this will play out in next week’s episode.
38/10Awesome episode. Now we know why Kyoutarou picked a fight with Sakura as it seems both of them have the same goals in mind. Kinda scary when everyone was paying attention after the leader came on over the P.A despite his somewhat goofy appearance. Afterwards, Sakura gets a taste of the daily routines for a Bofurin which involves patrolling the streets as well as helping out anyone in need. Suddenly, they were faced with an emergency where someone from their turf was running towards them from another group of people from a different turf. From there, we learned a bit about them after Kyoutarou and Sakura landed a blow on one of them. Soon they meet up with the leader of Bofurin but he was not the person they expect to be given his appearance. Can’t wait to see what else awaits them in the coming episode……..
48/10Awesome episode. Looks like a gang fight is about to take place between Bofurin and Shishitoren after that incident in last week’s episode as their second in command, Jo has declared war on Bofurin during their surprise visit to Bofurin HQ. We learn a bit more about Shishitoren operates which was quite interesting but also disturbing. Who will come out on top???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
58/10Awesome episode. The team from Bofurin has made their way towards Shishitoren’s lair where they find that their one on one battle will be on a stage which seems unusual location for a battle. So far, Bofurin has been sweeping the floor against Shishitoren with two of them wiped out. The most interesting battle was Suou’s battle where it seem he was toying with his opponent before completely mockery of him. Can’t wait to see how the battle progresses in next week’s episode……..
68/10Awesome episode. Phew. Another win for Bofurin. Quite an emotional past between Hiragi and Sako. At first, it seemed like Hiragi was being overwhelmed by Sako but somehow he managed to turn things around and for another win. The matchups so far have been quite good making each battle quite fulfilling to watch. I wonder who is up next???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out………..
78/10Awesome episode. Looks like the next pair to duke it out is Sakura vs Togame. At first, Sakura appears to be completely overwhelmed by Togame’s attacks. However he soon manages to catch up and land a few hits himself although he wasn’t able to defend most of the counterattacks. During the battle, we learned a bit more about Togame and Chouji’s relationship as well as how they found each other and climbed the ranks of Shishitoren. I wonder what happened to Togame as he demeanour seems to have changed part way through their battle???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
88/10Awesome episode. That was good and honourable fight between Togame and Sakura. I’m actually amazed that Sakura was able to help Togame find his path although that didn’t sit well with the leader of Shishitoren. Now its up to Bofurin’s leader to face off against the leader of Shishitoren both with different ideals. Who will win???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
99/10Awesome episode. Good to see Umemiya managed to get through to Tomiyama during their one-on-one fight. The one thing I really like about Umemiya is that he is able to turn any negative situation into a positive situation as well as bringing people together especially after their fight. Definitely a heart-warming moment to see the conflicts between Furin and Shishitoren finally resolved. Can’t wait to see what else awaits them in the coming episodes……..
108/10Awesome episode. Kinda heart-warming seeing Umemiya uniting both Furin and Shishitoren by ordering takeout food for everyone after their battle. We learned a bit more about Umemiya’s ideals as well as how he was able to reach the top. Later Furin continued their celebration at the cafe where Umemiya and Sakura sat down and talked together which was kinda funny to watch. It seems Sakura is still having doubts but he is slowly opening up. Can’t wait to see more in next week’s episode.
118/10Awesome episode. Kinda funny seeing Sakura entranced by what Umemiya said to him in the previous episode up to a point where he didn’t realize that someone was calling out to him. Later at Furin, they got somewhat of a warm welcome after that Shishitoren incident before being introduced to two other classmates namely Kiryu and Taiga. Soon they were involved with another fight after a group of thugs were after Kiryu where we learned that he helped her get away from those thugs. Good to see all of them working together to defeat them. Kinda funny seeing them react to the contents of Sakura’s phone which was devoid of apps/contacts which makes you wander why does Sakura even have a cellphone. Can’t wait to see what else awaits them in next week’s episode.
128/10Awesome episode. Good to see Sakura continues to open up and improve himself. At least now, he is trying to get to know people with help from his friends. Its always funny to see him blush or pout whenever someone praises him. Can’t wait to see what else awaits him in next week’s final episode.
139/10Awesome episode. Well that was an interesting meeting indeed with Umemiya especially the part where he asks the 2nd years to show the 1st years the ropes. However one of his classmates, Anzai is hiding something something as evident by his injuries after running into him. Kinda funny seeing both Sakura and Anzai unable to hide their true intentions from the others. It turns out Anzai’s childhood friend is part of the KEEL group and was involved in a recent attempted snatch theft. Since they both saw each other, the KEEL group has been going after Anzai which explains his injuries and the threats he received. Good to see the entire class gathered to help him save his friend which even surprised their seniors. Can’t wait to see how this plays out in next season which is scheduled for 2025.

Dragon Raja -The Blazing Dawn- :

EpisodeScoreComment/Impressions
07/10Good episode. Not sure what is going on here but it seems like Lu Mingfei had some kind of aptitude which lead to him being scouted by a professor. Kinda funny seeing the Professor using all means possible to get Lu Mingfei to accept the offer including scholarships. In the end, it was his subordinate that managed to do it by making him decide between his love or his future. Can’t wait to see how he will manage living a new life at the university.
18/10Awesome episode. It seems like Lu Mingfei may have some hidden ability as revealed during his wait for the train to the college as well as during the train ride. Kinda funny seeing him meet his Senpai who seemed to be a goofy kinda person. Soon we learned the true reason why Lu Mingfei was invited to attend that university. Upon arriving, Lu Mingfei stumbled into something unusual. Can’t wait to see how he will handle it in next episode……..
28/10Awesome episode. It seems like Lu Mingfei has stumbled into an event where students were allowed to do anything which in this case appears to be a gunfight among students. It seems like Lu Mingfei have an alternate persona inside of him as evident when his total fear allowed the alternate persona to take over his body and respond to the gunfight thus resulting in him taking down the two top students. Now that he has earned the hatred from all the students, how will he manage throughout his time at the university???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
38/10Awesome episode. I’m quite amazed seeing Lu Mingfei having to take an exam as soon as arrived at the university. Unfortunately, his Yangling is unable to resonate with the dragon spirit which puts him at a disadvantage and causes a slight commotion throughout the university. Luckily his senpai helped him cheat on the test but it seems someone else also wanted him to pass the exam too. Who could that person be???? Kinda funny seeing how the test affected the rest of the students and how Lu Mingfei manages to pass the exam after passing out as he was meeting his alternate persona where we learned a bit more about him. Later we witness two students uncovering a mysterious dragon temple. Can’t wait to see what they find down there in next episode………
48/10Awesome episode. It seems like those two students got more than they bargained for as they ended up in a palace that was very unusual in terms of the layout. Also it seems there were unusual traps as one of them was temporarily possessed as she tried to read the dragon language. Unfortunately, those two ended up trapped the palace as they tried to escape leading to all A-rank students and higher to gather to help crack the maze. It seems like that earlier meeting with his alternate persona helped him crack the puzzle to the amazement of everyone in the room. However, will those two be able to make it out alive???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
58/10Awesome episode. Despite Lu Mingfei cracking the puzzle, however there was barely enough time for Aki and Ye Sheng to escape that place due to their limited oxygen supply. However Aki managed to deliver the items they gathered before being killed a fish-like creature which turned out to be some Dragon God. Unfortunately, their professor also was killed while trying to avenge the death for the both of them. Meanwhile, Lu Mingfei’s success has earned him an invitation from both leaders of the two student groups. I wonder which one will he choose???? Can’t wait for next episode to find out.
67/10Good episode. It seems like Lu Mingfei is undecided which group to join and one of those invitation was to a fancy party which kinda felt awkward when his roommate tagged along and not long after we saw both of them dancing. However, Lu Mingfei was still undecided on which group to join. Unfortunately, their calm night didn’t last very long as their campus was suddenly broken into by an unknown entity who I presume is after that item that they recently acquired. Will they be able to defend their school???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
77/10Good episode. The battle is underway as the Protective Yangling was removed in order to track down the rest of the enemies. Meanwhile, one of them has managed to infiltrate the pathway to the lab which was quite interesting. Also, I find it strange that no one contact Lu Mingfei to return to college since the attack began as he was busy dating somewhere. It seems like that mysterious person that was controlling Lu Mingfei also managed to control that intruder to open that underwater door. What could be behind that door???? Can’t wait for next episode to find out.
87/10Good episode. It seems like it was some kind of shark that was lurking behind that door however it seemed to not be interested in the intruder. However it seems the water currents have pushed him straight to the pathway to the lab where Dragon Emperor’s egg looking object was kept. Unfortunately, he lost his phone along the way to the lab therefore he didn’t know what was the last task for his mission thus ended up abandoning it however it seemed someone else took liberty of completing that task thus unleashing something. What could it be???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
98/10Awesome episode. It turns out that intruder, Lao Tang was Lu Mingfei’s old friend after he ran into him as he tried to make his escape. Unfortunately, their reunion was short-lived as the dragon suddenly appeared behind them and started chasing them while calling out brother which sounds awfully familiar. While they were hiding from that dragon, Lu Mingfei suddenly appeared in another realm where he met the dragon in its human form. Can’t wait to see what awaits him in next episode……….
108/10Awesome episode. It seems like that dragon that was on the loose was actually looking for its twin brother as evident when Lao Tang finally awakened after that dragon was killed right in front of him which led to him regaining his memory after running away in disbelief when the dragon continued to call out to him as his brother. Looks like Lu Mingfei will be on another mission as the principal has plans to eradicate the other dragons during one of his discussions. Can’t wait to see how this plays out in next week’s episode.
117/10Good episode. When Lu Mingfei was called to take on the mission, he initially wanted to refuse however once he was given a chance to voice out his feelings, he eventually decides to take on the mission. Kinda funny the two month training he took in preparation for his mission although I don’t think he was mentally prepared. Unfortunately, when his group arrived at the palace, they noticed the air was no longer stale which means the Dragon Emperor Norton has returned. I wonder how will they carry out the mission to detonate the palace safely???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
128/10Awesome episode. Good to see Lu Mingfei and his partner was able to reach further into the temple and eventually arriving at what appears to be his lair. Soon they arrived at this odd looking house where it looked quite similar to the memories he had seen during his encounter with the dragon back at school however there were no signs of Dragon Emperor Norton. After his partner realised what this place was, they immediately tried to get out only to end up loss. Luckily Lu Mingfei was able to reach out to his buddy, Finger in hopes of getting a map to escape the palace. Will they be able to complete the mission and escape from the temple alive???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
138/10Awesome episode. Kinda funny seeing Lu Mingfei using the teacher’s power to exchange information on how to escape the temple. Along the way, they found Ye Sheng’s body which was holding something that could unravel more secrets about the Dragon Emperor Norton. As they continued to make their way out, a voice echoes inside Lu Mingfei from someone who looks like himself only older about using his own strength to get them out which prompted him to do something crazy when trying to get past the temple door. Meanwhile, Cesar had to contend with Dragon Emperor Norton who had fused with that monster and is going after them. This is getting intense. Can’t wait to see what happens in next week’s episode.
149/10Awesome episode. Good to see Chu Zihang and Caesar managed to use their full strength to defeat the Dragon Emperor Norton even though they were injured themselves during the battle. Unfortunately, the same can’t be said from Lu Mingfei as his companion was stabbed in the back by that monster before she could get inside the capsule. Will he be able to recover from this???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
158/10Awesome episode. At first, it seems like Lu Mingfei was in distress along with a feeling of regret until he was once again ended up summoning Lu Mingzei where he expresses his desire to save Nono no matter the cost. It gave Lu Mingzei to offer a deal where he can take Lu Mingfei’s soul after four summons if he agrees to help him. I’m genuinely surprised that Lu Mingfei actually accepted it and now we get to see what Lu Mingzei can actually do which was giving Yanglings to Lu Mingfei which he promptly used in his battle against Dragon Emperor Norton. Will he be able to defeat him???? Can’t wait for next week’s final episode to find out.
169/10Awesome episode. Good to see Lu Mingfei battling the Dragon Emperor in hopes of saving Nono. However he somewhat hesitated when he tried to attack Norton himself as he resembles his friend, Lao Tang. He tries his best to snap him out of it but to no avail as Norton had taken over his friend’s body. Eventually, he was forced to kill him but the strike of the sword only injured him and he escaped after being struck by another bullet which put an end to their battle. It seems like the Principal knew everything about Lu Mingfei but chose to keep quiet which makes me wonder, what else is he hiding from Lu Mingfei, perhaps the true whereabouts of his parents???? I guess we will never know unless they greenlight another season to continue the story.

YATAGARASU: The Raven Does Not Choose Its Master :

EpisodeScoreComment/Impressions
17/10Good episode. Not sure what were those two boys were running away from only to be saved by a Raven. It seems there maybe some kind of power struggle between the ladies during the Rite of Ascension with the lady from Eastern House being singled out by the others due to the meaning of her name. It seems there is a lot going on behind the scenes from each house to ensure their lady gets chosen. Not sure how Ravens play a part in this. Can’t wait to see how this plays out in the coming episodes…….
27/10Good episode. Kinda funny seeing Yukiya getting reprimanded for that brawl from last week’s episode. It seems like the prince plans on using him for something to which the others agreed with the idea of sending him off to live with the prince as his attendant. It seems like he is struggling a bit during one of the matches. However there seems like there were rumors surrounding Yukiya and his family to which he took out on Ichiryu. Soon Yukiya finally meets with prince but what is even more scary is when he learned that he and one other attendant will be working in the palace as the others either quit or were dismissed. Will he be able to hang on???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
38/10Awesome episode. Kinda funny seeing Yukiya carrying out all the tasks given to him by the Prince. Now I understand why the previous attendants either quit or was let go as they most likely unable to handle the tasks given with some being absolutely ridiculous.

Will Yukiya be able to get himself out of this situation???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
47/10Good episode. Looks like the prince helped him out of the situation. Soon we learned that the council was attempting to stop the Prince from ascending to the throne however the Prince managed to stop them just in time. However that still didn’t stop them from using underhanded tactics to try an assassinate him. It seems like Yukiya’s time with the Prince has resulted in the Prince offering him to be his aide to which he refused at first however after a little negotiating he finally accepted. Can’t wait to see what else awaits him in next week’s episode……….
58/10Awesome episode. It seems like the Prince’s plans are a bit unorthodox as he used Yukiya as collateral after losing a fortune during a dice game when in reality it was so that he can sniff out the perpetrator behind the Prince’s assassination in the criminal underworld. Its a good thing the plan went better than expected even though Yukiya was mad at the prince afterwards which was kinda funny to watch. Later, the prince receives an urgent visit from one of house’s representatives. I wonder what is that person’s request???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
67/10Good episode. It seems that person was informing the Prince of some inside story behind one of the suspected perpetrator which prompted the prince to request an audience with that person.

Once again, the prince managed to save him but this discovery that the monkey can shape-shift into humans sends shockwave throughout the entire kingdom. Fortunately, they managed to find a lone girl survivor only for her survival to be called into question. Currently, that lone girl survivor is currently living with Yukiya’s family after Yukiya’s mother offered to take her in for the time being despite objections from Yukiya.

However it still doesn’t explain where the monkey came from especially after the Prince confirmed that it didn’t come from outside since the barrier is still holding strong. As the Prince and Yukiya prepare to go back to the underground ravine, they were stopped by Natsuka who was against the Prince going down due to safety concerns there and offers himself to go down there to investigate while bringing Yukiya along.

68/10Awesome episode. Good to see Walter and Sade finally dancing together although not in the ball room at first because Sade was a bit shy as she was not human. Also, Viola was a bit nervous at the beginning of the party until Bocchan stepped in and helped her get started. Good to see everyone enjoying themselves and what was more surprising was when Bocchan has a conversation with his mother and the outcome was somewhat unexpected. Can’t wait to see what else awaits them in next week’s episode.
77/10Good episode. Good to see everyone spending time with each other before the day where they will go back in time to take on Sade. Kindly funny seeing the ladies having their moments together with all kinds of activity. Later we see Bocchan also spending the last moments with Alice and Robert which was kinda heart-warming to work. Can’t wait to see the final battle against Sade in next week’s episode.
88/10Awesome episode. Not sure whether to call this a full out battle or just some negotiation that is difficult to overcome. It seems like Sade will not budge until Zain gives her his time travelling to which he outright refuses. Later she unleashes Daleth from the time period they were in to which Walter decides to take her on by enduring all of her illusions where he did pretty well. Will they be able to convince Sade to break Bocchan’s curse???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
98/10Awesome episode. After a couple rounds of back and forth, Zain was not able to convince Sade to come quietly to the future and break Bocchan’s curse which lead to him being mercilessly being attacked by Sade. Soon after, reinforcements come in to confront Sade however its a long and uphill battle. Later, Bocchan was able to get close to Sade however she kept pushing him away. It seems like her past grudge is quite strong as she suddenly some unknown mysterious power. Will they be able to stop her???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
108/10Awesome episode. It seems like Sade refuses to listen to Bocchan and suddenly unleashes a barrage of attacks at everyone. After many attempts, they finally managed to put a stop to the attacks with help from Alice.

119/10Awesome episode. Good to see them put a stop to Sade rampage. After a bit of back and forth, she finally lifted the curse on Bocchan and Nico before returning to the present time. Unfortunately, Bocchan and Alice’s relationship took an unexpected turn when Alice suddenly resigned from being his maid at the mansion which broke his heart. Quite a heartwarming moment when Bocchan went after Alice to express his love for her. Can’t wait to see what happens in next week’s final episode………..
129/10Awesome episode. So happy for Alice and Bocchan as they finally got married in the end. Loving the remix of 1st Season OP song at end. It really gives that feeling that we have finally come full circle but also sad since the series has finally come to an end. Congrats to Alice and Bocchan as well as to Walter and Daleth…………

Vampire Dormitory :

EpisodeScoreComment/Impressions
17/10Good episode. Not sure how to put this but this probably one of the most strangest shows I have seen so far. Not sure why Mito’s relatives don’t want to take her in after both her parents died. Good to see Ruka coming along and offering her a place to stay in exchange for a favour. Now that Mito has accepted the offer, how will she hide her true gender after Ruka mistakes her for a male due to her disguise???? Can’t wait for later episodes to find out.
27/10Good episode. It seems like Ruka still isn’t aware of Mito’s true gender as they both went to school the following day and Mito attracted a lot of attention as she enters the classroom. Meanwhile, it seems like one of Ruka’s classmate, Ren is aware that Ruka’s a vampire and tries to warn Mito but instead got an earful. It seems we may have a love triangle on her hand. I wonder how long Mito can keep her true gender a secret???? Can’t wait for later episodes to find out…………
38/10Awesome episode. Good to see Mito and Ruka’s friends go on a camping trip however their enjoyment was somewhat undercut when they noticed that Ren tagged along as well. It seems like Ren is still worried about Mito becoming a vampire however Mito reassures him that “he” won’t become a vampire. Also it seems Mito is having a slightly difficult time keeping “his” true gender a secret where Ren almost found out while she was bathing. Kinda strange that Ruka had such restriction imposed on him as a condition to inherit a position. Can’t wait to see how this plays out in the coming episode……..
48/10Awesome episode. It seems like Ruka is acting strange after their camp trip. We soon learned that Ruka is only allowed to fall in love with his destined partner otherwise he will lose his chance of inheriting the position. Kinda funny seeing Mito trying so hard to get Ruka’s attention only for him to ask her to get a girlfriend. Later both Ren, Ruka and Mito ended up going a mixer where Mito was the first to be asked out. Kinda funny seeing those two following Mito and watching anxiously. I wonder what’s up with Ren at the end? What does mean by asking Mito to stay away from him otherwise he’s going to come out???? Could it be that Ren has an alternate personality???? I guess we will only find out in next week’s episode………
58/10Awesome episode. As I suspected, Ren was a vampire as well although he was a half-vampire unlike Ruka and his friends. Unfortunately a bit of misunderstanding between Ruka and Mito has resulted in Mito running away from him and out into the city by herself. Luckily Mito was saved by Ren when she was confronted by some ill-intention people. Unfortunately, the misunderstanding between Mito and Ruka got even worse when Mito slept with Ren for the night. Will Mito be able to fix their relationship???? Will Mito’s true gender be known to the others???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
68/10Awesome episode. It seems like both Ruka and Mito felt guilty for making each other feel bad and thus both were trying to find a way to make up for each other especially after Ruka’s friends decide to take Mito on a trip to the beach while waiting for the tension to calm down. Unfortunately Mito’s absence had caused Ruka to experience the same condition as Ren which triggered after meeting up with Maina. Glad to see they both made up afterwards however it seemed Ren is not giving up on having Mito all to himself. Can’t wait to see how this plays out in the coming episodes……..
78/10Awesome episode. It seems like things are getting a bit more dangerous as some of Ruka’s cohorts have paid him a visit which did not end well for them. Looks like Mito’s luck finally ran out as Ren discovered that Mito is a girl after saving Mito from the attack. I wonder how will Ren respond to this???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out………..
89/10Awesome episode. It seems like Ren was somewhat glad he discovered that Mito is a girl and wastes no time in taking advantage of that while Ruka was at his home dealing with a leadership crisis issue where an elder revealed who is his destined partner which turns out to be Mito. Kinda funny that Ruka didn’t realize this even though he was drinking Mito’s blood the entire time even though when he ran into her as predicted by the elder. It seems we now have a love triangle going on between Mito, Ren and Ruka. Will Ruka ever realize Mito’s true gender???? I’m willing to bet that Komori already knew Mito’s true gender from the start and prefers to let Ruka figure it out for himself. I guess we will find out in the later episodes……..
99/10Awesome episode. OMG!!!!!!!! This love triangle is getting more complicated. The part at the end when Mito realises that she turned into a male probably came from when Ren drank her blood earlier along with his wish that he will love Mito regardless whether Mito is man or women. So now I guess Mito doesn’t have to worry about keeping that secret from Ruka anymore. I wonder how this will play out in the coming episodes?????
108/10Awesome episode. My hunch was right as it was Ren’s doing that turned Mito into a male. After Mito confronts him, he refuses to undo it saying that its so that Ruka can never have Mito. Mito tries her best to get Ruka to see her true self however was unsuccessful. It seems like Ren’s family has a grudge against Ruka’s family for the throne hence the reason why both of them are after Mito even going as far as disguising as Mito’s true self to trick Ruka. Unfortunately, Ruka wasn’t able to see this thus the real Mito ended up falling into the river. Can’t wait to see how this plays out in next week’s episode.
118/10Awesome episode. It seems Mito is really heart broken after Ruka failed to see her real self. Luckily she was saved by the founder and was brought to Ren where she just wants to forget about Ruka which Ren promptly granted her wish. Ruka finally realized the fake Mito(Miko) as they were on the way to the palace and rushes over to get Mito only to be somewhat heart broken when Mito doesn’t remember him at all and begs at Ren to be near her. It seems like Ren played right into his family’s hand after his dad revealed the entire plan to him. So basically both Ren and Ruka have hurt Mito in someway for their own benefit, I wonder how both of them will fix this???? Can’t wait for next week’s final episode to find out……..
129/10Awesome episode. Good to see Mito realising her true feelings for Ruka after he gifted her that sang sucre. Kinda feel sorry for Ren after realising he was being used by his father in order to become the next leader of the vampires therefore lost his chance to marry Mito. When Ruka realized Mito’s true gender, he was overjoyed which means Mito could have revealed her true gender sooner but I guess she overwhelmed that Ruka might reject her true self. So now Ruka has to protect Mito until the day of their marriage since the founder is leaving them to prepare for the wedding ceremony. I guess the competition is heating up as Ruka seems to recognize their new classmate that just transferred. Hopefully there will be another season to continue the story……….

After some coaxing, Norn finally accepted but she wanted to live in the dorms. However it seemed things didn’t get much better as she was always by herself which made him worry.

178/10Awesome episode. Good to see Rudeus managed sort things out with Norn while reflecting on his past life where he had done the same to this older brother. At the very least, Norn is no longer holed up in her dorm room and talking to others once again. Quite an emotional moment indeed.

Unfortunately, the decision making became more tougher when he learned that Slyphy was pregnant along with the advise given by “god” who warned that he would regret it if he proceeded to head to that area to help his dad.

Can’t wait for later episodes to find out……..
208/10Awesome episode. Good to see Rudeus finally reuniting with his dad although he was somewhat distraught after learning the current situation. Thankfully Elinalise was there to keep him together as they prepare to venture into the labyrinth after he shared with them the book regarding it. The labyrinth seems quite dangerous as somebody can be warped elsewhere if they stepped on the transportation portal by accident. Soon Rudeus was able to sense Roxy’s presence and hurried to rescue her from the hoard of monsters that surrounded her. Kinda of heart-warming moment seeing those two reunite again. Can’t wait to see what else awaits them in next week’s episode.
217/10Good episode. Kinda sad seeing Rudeus feeling heart broken when Roxy didn’t recognise him at first. However we soon learned that she did know Rudeus just that his appearance has matured so much that didn’t recognise at first. After rescuing her and a bit of resting back at home base, they were back to tackling the labyrinth. Soon they reached the point where the book provided no details on how to move onwards. However the room does look a lot like those ruins we saw earlier which prompted Rudeus to look for a hollow noise in the floor to which he blasted it open revealing the true teleportation portal. What will they find as they go deeper into the labyrinth???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
229/10Awesome episode. It seems like Rudeus’s mum was trapped inside the Hyrdra monster. Unfortunately, none of their magic attacks are working on the monster forcing them to retreat. Quite a heart-breaking moment when Rudeus’s dad was killed after saving Rudeus from the monster’s attacks. This was made even sadder when Rudeus’s mom had no memories of Rudeus after being rescued. I wonder what happened to Rudeus’s mom before she ended up in that monster???? How will be able break the story to his siblings???? Can’t wait for next week’s final episode to find out.
238/10Awesome episode. Good to see Roxy was able to cheer Rudeus up however it seems he feels compelled to return Roxy’s feelings. I’m surprised Elinalise suggested polygamy to Rudeus. Let’s see what Sylphy has to say about that in next week’s final episode…………..
249/10Awesome episode. Quite a sad moment when Rudeus broke the news of their father’s death to the rest of his family members. Honestly, I was shocked that one of his siblings actually questioned him whether he did all he could to save him. Also there was a slight conflict when Rudeus seeks permission from Sylphy to have Roxy as his 2nd wife which is basically polygamy to which Sylphy accepted. Such a heart-warming moment when Sylphy finally gave birth to Rudeus’s first child to which he named her, Lucie. Can’t wait to see their journey continue in next season.

18/10Awesome episode. Quite an interesting start. Reminds me of another show from MAPPA, RE-MAIN where amnesia played a big part in that show. I wonder what incident would have caused Kei’s amnesia????? How will Kei recover from his amnesia???? Can’t wait for later episodes to find out……..
28/10Awesome episode. Good to see there was a slight progress with Kei despite his refusal to join the baseball team. We are still not sure on what exactly caused Kei’s amnesia. Will they be able to convince Aoi and Shunpei to join team???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out………………
37/10Good episode. It seems like they managed to convince Aoi and Shunpei to join the baseball after Kei invited them over to his house to which they saw some of his prized possessions. I’m still annoyed that there is still no backstory for Kei’s amnesia. Later they head over to Teitoku High for a practice to which almost all of them have some form of regrets as they all received some offer/scholarship in the past. Kinda funny seeing the team manager for Teitoku High freaking out once the practice game gets underway. Will they be able to hold out throughout the practice game???? Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
48/10Awesome episode. Unfortunately things didn’t play out that well during their practice match as their newly formed team continued to struggle against Teitoku High even though they seemed to be doing ok at first. Kinda feel sad for Kei as he is making every rookie mistake while unable to unveil his true self throughout the match. Will he ever recover from his amnesia and perform at his best???? I guess only time will tell in the coming episodes………
57/10Good episode. Good to see some progress for Kei even though its a quite minor. Also, its great that the rest have decided to stick to playing baseball at Kotesashi High School and continue to help Kei out instead of taking up on the offer from Teitoku’s manager. I can tell this is going to be a long and winding journey before everyone is at their full potential. Will he ever recover from his amnesia???? Only time will tell………
68/10Awesome episode. Good to see Kei taking baseball more seriously now after losing to Teitoku. However while learning baseball tactics at Todo’s place, we learned a bit more about Todo and his reasons for quitting baseball in the first place which was quite heart-breaking to watch. Hopefully by picking up baseball again at a no-name public school, he will be able to overcome his current limitation. Can’t wait to see them continue to grow in the coming episodes………
77/10Good episode. It seems Todo is not confident in overcoming his limitation which prompted a little pep talk from Kei which somewhat motivates him. Kinda funny seeing them practice although I’m kinda worried that they might not make it that far without a coach. Later, Todo meets an old friend at the batting range where what he said somewhat hits him hard. Can’t wait to see what happens in next week’s episode.
88/10Awesome episode. It seems like Kei is somewhat a bit lazy during practice and playing mobile games especially when its crucial for him to improve his skill. Kinda funny seeing him run off after they tried to up is practice regime. That is where he meets Kazuki who likes baseball but only in video games which prompted Kei to invite him to join the baseball team however he ran off he saw the other members. Soon we learned why he hates baseball as he had his own bad experience. However with a bit of coaxing from everyone on the team, he eventually discovered his strength and joined the team. Can’t wait to see how this plays out in the coming episode…….
98/10Awesome episode. Since the team was aware of Kei’s amnesia, they tried various methods to try get Kei to regain his memories. Some of methods were outright ridiculous, however the hypnosis method was something unexpected which didn’t seem to work at first. However when Kei came in for practice the following morning, his aura was different and soon they learned that he was back to his old self which shocked everyone. Not sure but I think there might be a catch since it involves hypnosis and with another practice game coming up let’s see how it plays out in next week’s episode……….
108/10Awesome episode. Looks like their practice match went off without much of a problem. However partway through the match, there were some signs that the other Kei was surfacing as per his headache and unusual gestures. Unfortunately, Kei reverted back to his old goofy self part way through the match which left the team gobsmacked. I guess that hypnosis thing was only temporary. Can’t wait to see how they will deal with it in next week’s episode.
118/10Awesome episode. We now turn our attention to Shunpei who seems to be out of it. As it turns out he is still trying to overcome the wall despite running away from it previously. After a little bit of encouragement from Kei, he seems to able to slowly overcome it. Now its up to Kei to face off against Shunpei’s former teammates. Can’t wait to see how this plays out in next week’s final episode…….
128/10Awesome episode. Good to see Kei finally able to land a hit allowing Shunpei to complete the Home Run thus allowing Kotesashi High School to eventually win the tournament despite not being his commander self. Later we learned the final piece of Kei’s past with Haruka where they both enjoyed themselves. It seems like Kei never returned back to becoming his former commander self but instead decides to push ahead with improving his current self which surprised everyone. So I guess its up to Haruka and and the rest of the team to continue to guide Kei in becoming the best baseball player.

Can’t wait to see what else awaits them in next week’s episode.

67/10Good episode. Good to see Shin helping Tierra gain experience as an adventurer by taking on an escort mission.

77/10Good episode. Good to see they managed to complete the escort quest which may prove helpful later on as we learned a bit more about the Church HQ.

Can’t wait for next week’s episode to find out.
107/10Good episode.

After learning that there were other people like Shin existing in this world, he sets out with his friends to find them. Let’s see if they will continue the story with another season.
