General
Pacing - A good pace overall. Although I do feel like the battles were handled a bit too quickly.
Music - Lots of original music mixed with good original tracks, I think this is the best episode so far in terms of music. I like how they kept WorldEnd_Dominator in, although I kind of hoped it would have started earlier.
And they didn't use suspicion even once thank god.
Voicing - Where do I begin. I think every seiyuu that talked did amazing. Kyrie's evil voice (Tanaka) was just sexy, Rudolf (Rikiya) was suave + Jack Bauer and Eva and Evatrice (Miki Ito) were both amazing. Hideyoshi (Hirose) for the time he voiced was great too, along with Virgilia (Inoue), Beato (Ohara), Ronove (Sugita) and of course Battler (Ono)
Art - In terms of art this episode was very well done. Very minor things here and there, but generally the art quality soared compared to past episodes. The Siesta firing system was very cool looking, with the targeting system and the black greek red command center.
And no crazy censors for the corpses either (excluding the flashback ones and Rosa's corpse)
Also, hnnnnggggg beato god so moe ;___;!!!
Pros:
-The battles were handled well. I have very little complaints with them (mostly with how Rudolf's portion was handled).
-Hideyoshi is the best character ever prove me wrong. Seriously they handled his scene perfectly.
-No censors. Need I elaborate?
-All scenes in general had good pacing terms and had good atmosphere. This is for everything: art quality + music quality + voice acting quality make this episode just amazing.
-They kept Kyrie's talk about her miscarriage to a good length and finally mentioned Asumu and that she isn't Battler's real mother.
-Moetrice is just hnnnngggg
Cons:
-Leaving out the math explanation they also left out the part of how Kyrie was able to see Leviathan going in slow motion because of her superior envy power levels, so I hope people don't suddenly think Kyrie sees everything moving at a pace of a crawling infant
-My only complaint with the Rudolf portion of the fight was how they made it look like Evatrice is a retard for just jumping in during the battle for no reason. Originally she was overlooking it from a distance and Rudolf tricked Belphegor into coming in front of Evatrice. Still the entirety of 'Belphegor will protect her master at the sake of her own life' is kept in tact. But I do miss Rudolf's flirting (although they did keep the 'you would make a good wife' line ;D)
-The scene where Eva meets with Evatrice makes it look like a meta-world scene, when Eva was asleep when she talked to the witch.
Overall:
Despite it's minor tiffs and all I think this is the best episode in terms of everything overall. I would give it a 8 or 9...
But dammit I'll say it.
"DEEN did my favorite scene in the VN right."
