「踊る宇宙飛行士」 (Odoru Uchuuhikoushi)
“Dancing Astronaut”
In a sense, this was a somewhat touching episode to watch – seeing how much Serika cared for her father and the lengths to which she wanted to go in order to cure his illness.

「他には何も」 (Hoka ni wa Nani mo)
“Nothing Else”
While love may be beautiful, it can bring out the worst in people.

「絆」 (Kizuna)
“Bonds”
Alright, I’m going to say something extremely controversial this week.

「凶瑞」 (Kyouzui)
“Bad Omen”
I thought I would be upset over Jellal’s battle, but I found myself laughing at it instead. This episode was hilarious!

「血と汗と涙の結晶ですから」 (Chi to Ase to Namida no Kesshou desukara)
“Blood, Sweat and Tears”
With the completion (and failure) of the GunPro-1, this leaves me to wonder how they’re going to go about building the next one.

「タイムマシンのつくり方」 (Taimu Mashin no Tsukuruikata)
“How to Make a Time Machine”
I don’t know how else to say it except that this episode totally blew my mind. At this point, it’s safe to say Zetsuen no Tempest has eclipsed even the greatest of my expectations. There are just so many things this series does right and there’s no greater example than in how it consistently trashes your expectations while continuing to making perfect sense.

「聖母の…弁当箱(パンドラズ・ボックス)」 (Seibo no … Bentoubako ( Pandorazu . Bokkusu ))
“Pandora’s Lunchbox…of the Holy Mother”
Since I first saw the promos for this show, I thought it had a lot of potential. Potential to be cute, potential to be funny, and to have that certain kind of ridiculous levity that I enjoy so much. What it lacked – and has continued to lack for most of its run – is drama in any meaningful amount. Until now.
