The Episode assessment

This episode suggests how little of The ancient Magus Bride universe we nonetheless don’t recognize. It gave us some new creatures and greater insight into the curse implanted in Chise’s arm. 

The each-usige and nuckelavee are thrilling creatures in layout and concept. It turned into satisfactory seeing Chise have interaction with them even though each harbored sick cause towards her.

though, I’m searching ahead to seeing Chise apprehend her new dragon talents and use them in fight down the road. It’ll make her sense greater bold and able to status up for herself without Elias’s help. 

It became unlucky we didn’t get greater intel about Lucy’s grievances with Philomela or her reasons for attending a school filled with beings she doesn’t like.

We’ve been teased about it severa instances, so with any luck the topic gets tackled in a destiny episode. Lucy’s an exciting individual and i’m positive viewers would really like to know more about her and the Webster incident. 

common, this become a extremely good episode with awesome non violent and movement-centric moments. i will’t wait to look what lies beforehand for Chise, Lucy, and the relaxation of the solid earlier than this season concludes.
