「世界で一番幸せな女の子 -CHTHOLLY-」 (Sekai de Ichiban Shiawasena Onanoko -CHTHOLLY-)
“The Happiest Girl In The World -CHTHOLLY- “

I know I might be alone in this, but I really want more.

「どうか、忘れないで -evidence of existance-」 (Douka, Wasurenaide -evidence of existance-)
“Please Don’t Forget -evidence of existance-“

Even though we knew exactly where the story was going, I can’t believe how emotionally taxing this episode was.

「いまこの時の輝きを -my happiness-」 (Ima Konotoki no Kagayaki wo -my happiness-)
“Shining Right Now -my happiness- “

Looking back after watching this episode, I guess it isn’t all that crazy to think everything would fall into place so perfectly.

「たとえ未来が見えなくても -moonlit sorcery-」 (Tatoemirai ga Menakutemo -moonlit sorcery-)
“Even if the Future Can’t be Seen -moonlit sorcery-“

Hands down this was the sadest episode of the series yet.

「いずれその陽は落ちるとしても -slight light, slight hope-」 (Izure Sono You wa Ochiru to Shitemo -slight light, slight hope-)
“Even if the Sun Falls -slight light, slight hope-“

While I don’t think there have been any bad episodes, this week’s episode felt like a return to form with the amount of emotions that it managed to suck out of me.

「ただいま帰りました -home, sweet home-」 (Tadaima Kaerimashita -home, sweet home-)
“I’m Home -home, sweet home-“

After everything we’ve seen thus far, this episode was rather tame.

「消えない過去、消えていく未来 -no news was good news-」 (Kienai Kako, Kieteiku Mirai -no news was good news-)
“The Past That Doesn’t Disappear, The Future that Disappears -no news was good news-“

It feels like we’re watching an abridged anime, except we’re not. (I mean that in a good way)

「誰も彼もが、正義の名のもとに -from dawn till dusk-」 (Daremokaremo ga, Seigi no Nanomotoni -from dawn till dusk-)
“Everyone, In the Name of Justice -from dawn till dusk-“

You don’t mess with a broken man who has almost nothing to lose and the strength of a god damn demi-god.

「帰らぬ者と、待ち続けた者たち -dice in pot-」 (Kaeranumonoto, Machitsuketamonotachi -dice in pot-)
“Those Who Do Not Return and Those Who Are Waiting -dice in pot-“

While things may have ended on a slightly sour note, the episode as a whole was surprisingly good.

「この戦いが終わったら -starry road to tomorrow-」 (Kono Tatakai ga Owattara -starry road to tomorrow-)
“Once This Fight is Over -starry road to tomorrow-“

Even when I think the show is going to all into the trap of being too damn cheesy for its own good, it manages to save things from the brink of no return with some great music and a smooth talking Lizardman.
