I have to say this is probably the most serious situation we've had in the show in a while. This guy literally feels more dangerous than anything we've seen since the first season. Sure, it's a classic setup but he was actually knocking people around pretty effectively. Although wow....they sure could have used more firepower for this trip
.
While it was already stated in the past, another not that Genoise and Gaul just have a strong relationship where none of them would have ever thought about anything romantic. As close to sibling feelings between them as you can get. Kind of fun that they were all pretty ok with the potential with him and Aria since it's a rare time when he shows that kind of interest in someone.
I'm just surprised this wasn't wrapped up in an episode. Instead we get a decent boss who for some reason just feels more dangerous than we usually get. Probably someone who liked Aria, wondered off and got utterly twisted up by the disease demons. Aria probably went off to look for him and well....that didn't go well for her at all.
So Shinku and Becky can go and bring back some support and try to turn things around. Though not sure they can bring too many people. Sure they have a flying army at the ready, but not sure they could get up there. Maybe just grabbing the princess and a couple people.
