21 weeks, all for this moment!

Spoiler for 22:

right off the bat, Sabrac's alive! Guess killing the battle body meant nothing, he'll just keep regenerating as long as he still has the main.

Kantaro comes back and seems to break some big news to Yuji on the bridge (is it like every revelation in Yuji's life takes place there? 0_o)

Looks like Shana and Yoshida have a "date" together, and decide to have a little contest over who's going to get Yuji (sending him letters to spend christmas together)

Wilhelmina thinks a little about her own love (*sniff* Merihim...)

And right when everyone is waiting...


darn, looks like Hecate showed up and removed the Reiji Maigo from Yuji instead. bummer.

Alright, looking like an anime original ending everyone. Time to go home. :\

I would like to say the following to points 1 and 5

[CapoExecutor]

I'll only complement Yuji in forcing the Balle Masque's hand after their "employees" failed to do so.

Did they really underestimate his capabilities when they sent Zarovee, Bifrons, and Sabrac into Misaki City?

[Arnaiyus]

Hmmm it may be an anime original ending, but it's still possible that the last episode will leave an opening for a next season.

Whatever happens though, I really enjoyed this season and even an anime original ending wouldn't disappoint me.

[Sinestra]

Well looks like we are going to be seeing a lot of face palming but i still dont think its going to be bad end i mean bad like well you know but still bad like only J.C. could do. God my head hurts already and i havent even watched the episode yet.

I was really hoping to have everything wrapped up in season 2 but like others im getting the sneeky suspicion we are going to see another season.

Screw off JC Staff, and suck your incompetent writing. The whole season was geared toward stupid generic fanservice and this just clenches it. An anime original ending would have been fine, but did they have to take a dump on the script to top things off?

I'm dropping this show, no more JC Staff anime for me. They've turned into a Studio DEEN. And people wonder why nobody buys anime anymore.

[Samanosuke]

J.C Staff , you betrayed me !
you betrayed the trust that i placed in you !
oh well , I really wanted my cliffhanger ending =/ .
So wait what ?

Spoiler for ep 22:

they removed Yuuji's Reiji maigo ? so he's back to being a torch and can die now ? lol . I guess there's going to be a big fight to recuperate it .

[Arnaiyus]

Come see little teasers for yourself here people =D

EDIT: Weee, the episode is up on NicoVideo (you need to register) here

[Dark Wing]

THEY DID IT AGAIN!!!!

This is total B.S!

Spoiler for Novels:

Snake of the Festival was imprisoned long before the Coffin Weaver's activities during the Middle Ages. Snake was defeated by an alliance of all the strongest Guze Kings plus Alastor around the time of ancient Babylon. They put him away because he was too tough to kill, and his crime was trying to change how existence works in both worlds.

Snake admires humans and he's the God of Creation, so he hates how Tomogara sneak into the real world and kill humans to achieve their goals, and likewise hates how the Guze Kings use Flame Haze as some kind of hobby to kill the Tomogara. It's fucking stupid.

So he wants to change the nature of existence for Tomogara and humans so they won't have that predator-prey relationship. The problem is it's risky and the other Guze Kings don't want that risk.

With Yuuji as his ally, he's virtual invincible right now. Near physically impenetrable body, a floating fotress, three unbelievably powerful Guze Kings as worshippers, hordes of followers, immunity to magic, unlimited offensive power, the ability to hide his presence and detect the presence of even the smallest amount of existence, and a physical Stand as powerful as a very strong Guze King that can replicate itself a million times and acts as his personal bodyguard.

This whole awesomeness just got sacrificed for harem visual novel love triangles.

[CapoExecutor]

Bel Peol has got quite a bustline. Did Dantalion pump more estrogen into her body or something?

Not to be combat-obsessive, but did Yuji get ambushed or was he just wasting time standing there while Hecate extracted the Reiji Maigo out of him? Unless he's hindered from moving, he could've just chanced things and acted in almost the same manner as he did against Zarovee. But then again, the subs aren't out so I don't what his situation is.

[nikolai_131]

So the end of this episode was Anime Original, right????

[Dragon-Emperor]

A strange way to end things for 22. Maybe things will somehow turn around for us in the next 2 episodes to retake the 'proper' course. No use getting upset over predictions in a world where predicting JCs actions is impossible (Don't claim otherwise out of anger. Please)

haha.....snake of the festivals seems like a descent guy afterall....

[CapoExecutor]

By the way, any chance that Kazumi's younger brother could get some screentime?

Spoiler for Novel:

From what you say (though I haven't seen the ep yet, I may change my mind by then), I believe Hecate steals the Reiji Maigo to implement it in the Silver. They may just show that SnH, which is inside the RM, wouldn't agree to that and go back to Yuji on his own, either merging in the last episode or in another season.

Whatever happens though, I really enjoyed this season and even an anime original ending wouldn't disappoint me.

Spoiler for Is there hope?:

Im hoping this is the case because how its looking i am not going to like the ending but anything can happen within the next 2 episodes and with it being an original anime ending they can still turn it into something decent.

Step 1 complete in having an anime original ending complete. Let the Yoshida love begin!

I'm glad that it doesn't look like they're going to leave the ending at a cliffhanger. Considering it'd be something like a year or two long wait for S3, and I really am tiring of Shana, it would be good if they just conclude it.
