Zero no Tsukaima Episode 9 Discussion / Poll

[Anh_Minh]

No, Saito needs to lead a bloody revolution against magicians, guillotine most of them.

Starting with Tabitha's uncle.

He can then quietly live out the rest of his days. With a harem.

(BTW, why is it everyone writes it "Tabitha", but no matter how much I strain my ear, I hear "Tabatha"?)

Well why is everyone writes it "saito" but no matter how much I strain my ear, I hear "Sigh-to"?




oh, maybe because thats the official spelling?

Enjoyable episode. Rather fillerish, of course, in terms of actual plot development - apart from what, the last four minutes? At any rate, dere-dere Louise was very entertaining, as was Siesta, whom I am growing very fond of. Gave this episode an eight - took two points for basically the fillerish nature (1) and the... well, flow problems. It seemed a bit erratic to me. Still fun though. ^^

I write it as "Tabasa"

I have nothing to complain about this episode rather than to praise it.

The comedic effect of Louise's love mode sparked, unknowingly to the main cast at that time, a quest event to be fulfilled and most likely it is intertwined among Tabitha's family crisis and Henrietta's political arrangement.

Spoiler:

The water spirit trusts the Gandalfr to retrieve the 'Ring of Andvar' which was stolen by this warlocke, Cromwell, the latter who has employed fouquet and the other mysterious stranger at his behest.

It is a hint for us to be intuitive about Saito filling the role of the Gandalfr, because the water spirit immediately conceded his request on the promise that him return it back; Saito not having second thoughts or hesitation agrees to keep his side of the promise.

Saito's the boy that does what's to be taken and needed to help those he cares about (although Louise sometimes is a raw dough to cook). Nevertheless, he's not sort a super-hero or the type that seeks to be center of attention, just an ordinary joe and nice 'shounen' that recklessly has himself thrown too lightly into a risky business more dangerous when experiencing first hand.

Anyways, lovey and turtle dove Louise was fun and cute but nothing beats Louise as a 'tsundere' which she's completely 'moe'. Even if Derflinger is correct that Saito should had left Louise love chanted, morally its wrong and frustrates Saito to no end having kept Louise clinging on him forever.
Unfortunately, the lovey Louise threw him in a precarious position with Siesta, sparking the jealousy of the latter.

Imho this episode was alrite, not great but it was still entertaining.
I think good parts were:

-MonMon!
-What Louise knitted for Saito was funny
-Learning about the legendary Gandalfr hero thing a bit more.
(So there have been previous Gandalfr and/or there are more than one?)

I did not like Saito getting owned, he didn't even put up a decent fight and he even went into pwnage mode!
Just speculating but I think Saito's power will develop more.
(Shana got wings so Saito might also get an upgrade)

As for louise I think she will probably bring out some awesome spells later when the danger gets worse.

Loved this epsode the luv luv mood with Louise just made the whole episode that much better. Saito must have blue balls like mad. I mean with her lying on the bed with hardly anything on, plus Siesta's hot body and he constant flirting and Kirche and her fun pillows are always in his face any man would go nuts we only have so much will power. Saito was very smart with how he delt with the Water god too bad Tabby and Kirche whooped him in the end oh well

However Louise remebered everything that happened and still beat him he like a little bitch even though he helped her that sucks. Well they say love is blind, stupid and it definetly hurts like hell

[Shiroth]

Well, i'm happy they've brought back Guiche into the plot - the guys way to much of a funny character not to been seen.. now i'm just thinking about if he summoned Saito. ^^;;

Anyway, flipping great episode like they all have been upto now, though i gotta say this one's gonna be one of the funniest.. love-love Louise is just so god damn amazing. <3

He`s a wizard (actually, a Majar) from Lord of the Rings book series by JRR Tolkien xP

Check the novels thread cos it wouldn`t be too good to spoil that issue here.

[Hazardous]

This episode is a beast that smashes.

[ChainLegacy]

I love this series, everything about it is enjoyable. The comedy, the action, the characters, the atmosphere, everything... Too bad it is so short . I was getting the long series vibe until I saw it was only gonna be 13 episodes. At any rate, this episode was good and Louise was hilarious under the love spell :P. I also want to see what this Gandalfr thing is all about.

Nope. Tolkien fans would probably lynch you for making that mistake. It's Gundolf.

One of the early threads here talked about the original source of the name... But I can't find it right now.

[Anh_Minh]

What... the resut of the unholy union of a Middle Earth wizard and a giant mech?

[Cyz]

funny how saito handles guiche and monmon. guiche is scared of him and monmon is being blackmailed.

[ryaken]

This was cute/funny episode. Moe Louise was great, and when she was sleeping under the tree, hahaha. It made me feel that Louise needed an eye on her at all times, moe moe max. Plot developement was merr, but good to see Guiche and MonMon involved.
