Episode 7 has completely rekindled my interest in the series.
Self-sacrifice, a thickening plot that could credibly go in a lot of directions, motivated characters..
But that useless comic duo.. Doshte.. They just got in the way of the drama, completely superfluous. Luckily they've toned down the slapstick that we saw in the first few eps (the boing sounds when people fall over, etc) but the show could have been much more mature and involved if they had left them out completely.
Am seeing lots of SnM in this, with the court intrigue and good drama. Also love the songs, background art, character design and OP/ED. High hopes for the rest!
