    I thought it was somewhat funny how he told her to hurry to Roland but didn't give her a horse so she have to run the whole way.

    Though didn't get the whole thing with Sion.
    You are here alone again
    In your sweet insanity
    All too calm, you hide yourself from reality
    Do you call it solitude? Do you call it liberty?
    When all the world turns away to leave you lonely

    The preview makes it look like next week's episode will be the last one but this is slated for 24 episodes right?

    Yeah it's virtually impossible for this series not to go into a second season.

    You realize the DVD/BD sales were disastrous right? Second seasons don't get approved on hopes and dreams alone.

    I meant that as an expression to say that if this story wants to be concluded successfully it needs a second season. On that note, someone needs to send the producers of this show a large donation to continue the series, it is definitely one of my favorites this year.

    They aren't even trying anymore to make the last few eps count. This was so random you'd think it was based on some end of the volume omake. If not for the last minutes.

    No matter how much the adventure and fantasy fan inside me likes the vague notion of what this show could have been, I can't really be satisfied with what it turned out to be in reality. Quite a disappointment all in all.

    I thought this was one of those "dream of an ideal world that I must wake up from" type of episodes, but the ending proved that everything was, in fact, real. (Including Ferris's indirect confession of love and all).

    How the hell did we go from the previous episode's abduction by Ryner's dad, the mysterious JE(?) imprinted on his chest, to this? (Froade organising a birthday party?)

    I am simply, utterly confused. And not in a good way.

    PS: Gastark and Kiefer didn't even make it into this episode.

    Don't forget less time was spent on the legendary relics and alpha stigma. It's like they decided at episode 3 "OK lets make this a romance instead of an action anime". :P

    Ryner is a Satan of Loneliness, that is why his Geass... errr... Alpha Stigma can be stopped from going berserk.

    Ferris' brother made Sion into the Dark Hero... who needed to 'eat' the Satan to be powerful.

    Sion couldn't kill him... but then took his human experiments to war, leaving the series unfinished.


    What's so difficult to understand?

    I get the legend stuff. Just the whole "party" thing and the "wake up after four hours sleep" sequence in episode 24. Continuity seems to be off - along with how they just completely dropped the "E" sign on his chest, and the significance of his dad stabbing him.


    Ferris' brother made Sion into the Dark Hero... who needed to 'eat' the Satan to be powerful.
    Lucile is apparently the Weaver of all Equations (but shouldn't that exist in the Dark Hero then?).

    As for eating Ryner.. was that the reason why Sion wanted to kill him? I never quite understood how killing Ryner was going to save him from walking through eternal darkness, unless it's like "kill him or eat him".

    It's kill him (he just dies) or eat him (he suffers eternally).

    Cool.

    Then, the two Sions debating with each other about killing Ryner were actually trying to save him? I don't think I'll get this straight without rewatching.

    The Sion that tried to kill Ryner wanted to save him. The Sion that was arguing with that one wants to eat Ryner.

    What's weird is that the one who wanted to save him was saying he wasn't going to kill him, while the other one was telling him to kill Ryner (from memory).

    Epic schyzophrenic yaoi soap

    I think I understood most of it. Except as Buff I can't really follow the timeline when Ryner wakes Sion up... unless it was a dream telling the events before they happen, and then we switch back to after the events and Ryner waking up in his cell.

    Open ending, just in case there's enough sales for a second season.

    I wonder what will remain of Gastark's king in the end, lauching nuclear size attacks here and there, costing him body parts each time.

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    Okay....what?

    I am hoping maybe some of my questions can be answered here, but by the looks of it, no one else seems to understand either.

    1) Someone asked earlier what the significance of Ryner's dad stabbing him was. In addition to this question, where did we learn that was his dad?

    2) What is that thing in Ryner's inner world that ate that random black haired woman?

    3) Okay so... weaver of all equations... is Lucile...? Isn't the weaver of equations supposed to only have half of a body? Or be a part of the dark hero? Was Lucile always the weaver of all equations, or was his body taken over? It sounded like it was a voluntary thing, where did Lucile find this demon to put in his body?

    4) Does anyone else find it obscenely disturbing how characters like Claugh, his blonde metro-sexual friend, and Milk were made out to be as nice and virtuous as "Good-guy characters" can get, yet we see them mercilessly slaughtering other nations alongside an army made from human experiments in a war that they don't bother asking why is happening?

    4) After the pink-haired guy died (the guy who uses light beasts?) It shows a messenger coming to the King of Gastark telling him something, and he smiles. Why did he smile?

    5) Someone please explain to me that dream/flashback thing

    6) If Ryner is Roland's greatest magician, why is Izuchi the only spell he knows and why does he have so much difficulty always defending himself. I have never seen him actually win a battle, and it can't be excused by "he never tries" because he is been in every possible situation, whether it be for fun, to test someone's strength, to keep a promise or to survive. He always loses.

    7) Just what faction is Tiir a part of? Is there a third faction? It makes it really hard to root for any faction in this series. One is a nation that runs human experiments and is trying to take over the world. Another is another nation that kills little girls to rip out their eyes, also to take over the world. The third seems to be a renegade group of rejects who are led by a vampire-looking fellow who mercilessly slaughters villagers.

    8) What happened to Arua?

    9) So... Lucile is the weaver of all equations... Ryner is the solver of all equations... Then what is Sion? Wasn't there just two demon monster things? (The hero and the lonely demon?)

    10) When the two Sions were arguing with each other, it seemed like the original Sion wanted Ryner to live and said that he will not be killed. Now it is reversed. I don't get it.

    Yet for whatever reason, no matter how much this show makes no sense what so ever, it is somehow my favorite of the year... Go figure.


    I want to buy the light novel series. Any idea if it's translated and where I can get it?
