Episode 12: Well at least Ginka's back. That and there were some nice action-y parts.

Hey, remember that basis? "I want to mate with you."

There's some more.

Was this the last episode? o.o

Did you see the preview?

I haven't seen it at all ^^;;

I thought it'd last 12 episodes too, so don't worry.

It still makes me worry that it'll just be a "No 2 for you!" style of ending.

Episode 12

• Cerebrum held up his end of the bargain. I'm surprised that he did. Of course, he's now relishing in Akari's pain. DOOOOOUUUUUCHE!
• Luna's part Daemonia now. She unleashed a can of awesome in the process.
• Luna/Seira moments were sweet.
• Eleventh Hour Rangers are coming!
• GINKAAAAA! Heh, How was your trip on the other side of the gate?

Episode 13.

All I can say is they definitely left open Sequel Hooks.

Okay, some more expanded, non spoiler-ific thoughts. I think this show is a, shall, we say, post-Madoka Magica work, and one of the first. The influences are clearly there, even though this show is more of a standard Magical Girl Warrior story made Darker and Edgier. I wonder if there will be a trend of more edgier magical girl shows in the same way Watchmen helped create the '90s Anti-Hero.

If that's what's gonna happen, I may fear it, because soon there's gonna be a Magical Girl version of this:

I didn't say that was a good thing. It's all cyclical anyway.

It's still gonna be fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun~!

Well, there was some good stuff that came out of that, right. Dead Pool, I'm told Spawn was decent. Hopefully a few good things happen.

... Now I want a 4th-wall breaking Magical Girl.

Prisma Illya? Though it's mainly the Magic Wand.

So, not actually split-cour, but clearly hoping for a second series. Aggravating

Episode 13: Now that was just pathetic. I think I'm gonna leave it at that.

Pretty Cure Will Probably follow suit for after the 10th anniversary, I'm sure. ' Sure, that's for kids, but it's other Primary demogtaphic (it's even in the marketing papers) is adult men as well, SO I'm sure Toei could probably let precure become dark and edgy (like they do with Kamen Rider, since Gen Urobuchi of Madoka Magica fame is making the next Kamen Rider series).

Well, that was a fairly standard happy ending all things considered. Not great, but not horrible either. In the end, this was mostly a darker magical girl show that mostly examined the MOTW. Decent show, but not groundbreaking.

Yeah. It felt like there was alot of untapped potential to me. Good idea; weak execution.

Finale:

• At the end of the tunnel, Akari finally got that heart-to-heart with Fuyuna.
• Cerebrum, your Breaking Speeches ain't working anymore. Deal with it and just die.
• I guess it's safe to assume that all Elemental Tarot users are going the Persona4 route concerning their negative selves.
• And so, backed by the winds of hope, their adventure continues.

It was a decent anime.

So, there was another ep. Mostly concerning things that happened before the series.

Oh, and they are making a manga of this. Just saying.

Honesty, the would have been better off using that instead of one of the filler episodes in the middle.

I haven't seen it yet but I kind of doubt it as there aren't many filler episodes and everything was dramatic development after dramatic development.

edit: It was mostly pretty sweet, still sad moments of course. If this had aired prior to the first episode (that is to say chronologically), though, dang, the official first episode would have been really depressing. It might have been more effective though.

I said it on another thread, but this series flopped in DVD sales so this is probably the last we'll see of it.

Is the manga just an adaptation of the anime?

Having watched it in its entirety I can safely say that this show was terrible.

The concept was interesting, but they totally flopped when it came to the execution.

OP was awesome though; I love LiSA.
