Letter Bee – 32




So finally, after thirty episode we learn what happened to Gauche, as he lost his heart. The question still remains how it happened, but this episode detailed the time right after it happened, which gave quite a bit of depth to his character. I really like the twists in which he was actually responsible for casting off his name, and how he actually visited some of the people closet to him, consciously deciding not to get back to them.

This episode also did a great job of showing how the One who couldn’t become a Spirit brainwashed Gauche: the only magic that was used was in the way that Gauche’s memories were lost, and instead he just showed Gauche the hypocrisy of the government. This episode showed that the government is also experimenting with combining humans to various life forms, and note how that mermaid had the same kinds of scars that the One who couldn’t become a Spirit had. What’s also interesting is that Noir keeps announcing his name whenever he shows up now: it’s like, he wants to be found or something.

Next episode should prove to be even more interesting: we’re finally getting to Nichi’s background. But to think that she’s already 200 years old. Apart from that though, it’s still a complete mystery of what she is, especially considering how old she already is, which should deny any links between her and the Marauders.
Rating: ** (Excellent)

  1. And finally we get to the best arcs of the story!

    It’s weird how they’re anticipating details that are revealed later in the manga.

    Wait did you have any ideas about Nichi being a failed experiment or something?

    False alarm. It was in the manga too. sorry.

  3. Zazie meeting Guache was anime original (they changed/expanded all the stuff on zazie in this episode, it was much better this way).

    They also added some things that didn’t make much sense… For example lag doesn’t fall in a pit when he shoots his shindan, I’m not sure what the purpose for that was.

    Also, they added the flashback scene where they find a failed experiment and bury it, in the manga roda just mentions something about failed experiments.
