Not a bad episode if I do say so myself.
Again there were a lot of cuts but while some of them were bad (grrr...lack of development for the characters) a few didn't matter that much, Still I can't help but think that it is hard to care for the characters at the moment as even the touching scenes a la Kanon and Jessica's death were rather plain and boring. Something was missing for me to mourn for their deaths as being special compared to the first 6 in the chapel, which is a shame. I don't like it that I'm not getting any emotions or feelings from watching this and only hope that it will improve.
Battler's victory against the witch felt flat as well since it was more of a "duh this is what happened" kind of situation due to the fact pace of it being done over. But I do like how they handled the red at least.
Finally the stakes! Nothing out of place for me besides the damn stupid spin...WTF...
