Well, this episode was extremely fast-paced. Maybe even a little too fast-paced? The battle was pretty much over as soon as it started and it seemed kind of chaotic visually. I mean, I know that the battle itself was chaotic, but I felt that the presentation itself wasn’t very good. At least they replayed that battle theme that they introduced in episode nine, that’s a sick theme.

Satou was surprisingly awesome in this episode during his confrontation with Margery. That was some pretty good script work there in my opinion. It’s a shame that we don’t see Yuji do anything of that sort often. When he does it usually ends up making me crack up a little since it’s hard for me to take him seriously.

The ending’s quick shot at Konoe has made us all ask ourselves once again just what role she will be playing exactly in the show. Since she’s an original character to the animation, not even the people that have read the light novels knows what’s going on over here. There is nothing for anybody to do but to speculate.
