People keep posting about episode 12 and I keep thinking we're actually at episode 12 and I missed one. @_@;
The line from episode 10 is "Despite all the people she's lost and all the hardships she's endured, Al is always kind and considerate of others." This line can refer to so many people, not just Claus and Lavie. Or even Mullin. It can refer back to Guita, Ralf, or well the whole House of Hamilton too. |

Animax's translation (for Southeast Asia) to that is pretty more straightforward:
"Alvis is an orphan. She has a sad past." and then later on Dio says that she and Millia are similar in terms of their background. with that "orphan" line you won't think about Claus or Lavie involved at all.

Farahnaz was clearly a wonderful woman in my opinion. She saw someone in danger and did the first thing she thought would protect her.
And then all hell broke loose because of it. Luscinia clearly resents the expatriates as a pigeonhole of "If it weren't for you, Farahnaz wouldn't be dead... the war between expatriates and Natives wouldn't have happened so the peace treaty formed with Ades (and Farahnaz) wouldn't have put her in danger..." etc I'm kind of left with a sense of who is the "baddie"? Is it the misdirected Luscinia who suffered quite a bit from the loss of someone he loved? Or is it some other group we don't know? In the original series we had one in Maestro Delphine. |

Yeah as MrTerrorist, TheKage and encia described, I think it was really well done with Farahnaz and her caring connections to our characters and really nicely created the stronger situation where everybody has a reason in the story as TheKage said with his "Who's the baddie?" thoughts.
Yup. |

well, i'm pretty sure that's what they wanted to show but i didn't buy it. i thought the establishment of this dark scenario was ill contrived maybe even forced. maybe it was all that sunshine and color where too much of both always indicates or symbolizes life, joy and optimism. it might've helped if they used a darker tone in picture during that part of the episode or any other gimmick to help differentiate the first part of the episode from the last, to show that things have changed, greatly. the mood felt the same from start to finish that's why i found it off (hence reactions that set off an exaggerated use of multiple hyphens). i also had trouble believing at the sheer absence of security in this event with a very important political figure(s) present. anyway, in that episode where Lusciania decided to massacre people? that i had no trouble believing/accepting.
