Does DEEN fix their animation goofs when they hit DVD or not? I know that Sunrise does, but I'm not sure about DEEN.
BTW, Awesome ep. I wish that a higher quality studio had done this series (and Higurashi) but at least DEEN is willing to do them at all. Spoiler for Episode 21:
Man, I don't know what to think of Rosa anymore. I understand that it's hard to be a single mother and that she's looking for some companionship, but she should have made better arrangements involving Maria, plus she's obviously embarrassed about her lies and affairs. |

It also seems that Maria says that Ange has some kind of anti magic toxin. This probably is the thing that would beat Beatrice.

As she said at the end of the episode, magic is real for those who believe in it. It is subjective.
I think the distinction lies in what Ange means by "magic". It's very different from what Beatrice means by "magic". |

To be precise, that's not the Ange of 1986, it's the Ange of 1985 or before. That scene happened during a family meeting, and Ange (as it was stated in the first episode of the fourth arc) can't possibly join the one of 1986.

Guess DEEN concluded most of 1988 Ange 's scenes this episode. They are really rushing through all the scenes ><
As pointed out before, it was more unbelievable and shocking when Ange managed to summon all the seven sisters and Sakutarou on the boat. Kind of lack the dramatic emotion i felt during the game.

Well that's one crazy old lady. Some reason with guys packing guns heading to the island think Ange's bodyguard is going to have a tough day.
Well the Stake's getting taken out certainly lost the surprise factor since it was mentioned almost every page from those worried it was going to be taken out. Still a pretty dramatic moment with Ange just losing it. No surprise considering the hell that school was. Forget asking the stakes I would have been tempted to just grab a desk and start swinging. At any rate stakes are a pretty likable group when they aren't on a killing spree . If they weren't being used as weapons they wouldn't be bad to be around. Wow Rosa the wonder parent . Definitely in a tough spot with the single parent and taking that into account. But she couldn't afford to have someone watch over Maria? Leave the kid alone with only stuffed animals for comfort and get surprised that she talks to them? Plus way to go in terms of traumatizing your own child by ripping in half the only friend she has in the world....Personally surprised the lady didn't go calling the police or something. Rosa was going over the edge there. Anyways I don't think Ange will have a great problem with her stance. The point here is to prove that magic wasn't responsible for the deaths on the island. Magic existing doesn't mean that humans weren't responsible for what happened. Besides Ange is just there to support Battler while he throws everything he can at Beatrice and try to win.

That the lady does nothing suggests to me that the scene is fake. Maria's overreacting memory perhaps.
It's that Ange's other aunt...her mother's sister, rather than Eva (her father's sister).

Ange's stance is to prove magic didn't have anything to do with the crimes: it's not about denying magic, just about denying it's involvement with the murders. She does believe in magic herself though, although what exactly is 'magic' makes you wonder a little. |

Dude, Eva is dead. She died shortly after Ange first met Bernkastel. Ange mentions the funeral during her conversation with Okanogi. The silver haired woman chasing Ange in 1998 is Sumadora Kasumi, Kyrie's little sister.
Of coarse you could have been speculating that Eva's shambling corpse is manipulating Kasumi from the shadows and plotting to take over the world or something, in which case I stand corrected. (Actually, that would make for a pretty weird plot twist now that I think about it, as that would mean you could explain all the murders with "zombie attack" and be done with it.) Moving on, Ithekro makes a good point. All of the Maria/Rosa flashbacks have been thrice filtered and can hardly be called "unbiased". Memories are not always the most accurate and Maria may not have been entirely honest in her depiction of events (Ange suspected that Maria may have been selective in what she chose to remember in an earlier scene). It would be best to assume, at least for now, that there are parts of the picture that Maria didn't get to see and give Rosa the benefit of the doubt. Not too much doubt mind you, that bitch already deserves to have her parenting license revoked for the things we can confirm. But still, got to keep things in perspective.

That woman there was from the service of child protection, so the police officer went quite far to tell the truth. Rosa could have been placed with charges of neglecting her child, but we can see that that lady is seriously running low on options to charge Rosa on anything. Maria is neither in a bad physical state nor is she visibly hurt as it seems, Rosa is providing her with a home, food and a good education...back then as far as I'm informed that was what parenting was about, child protection was still a growing (but relatively small) field. There are theories around even today, if that woman would have taken Maria away without any hesitation it could have broken Maria even more, because she clearly loves her MOTHER Rosa...and as long as the child is not asking to be taken away herself, there's not much to do. And of course Japan is still very heavily influenced by respect in front of home privacy. Rosa forced her out, so in the end she had to get out...I think that lady already pushed to the limits by not going directly when Rosa asked.
