yea idk what was up with that. I figured he was a demon at first, but then he turned into a dragon. then azazel said he was a demon and idk maybe he was half demon, half dragon like nina's half human

Poor Mugaro just doesn't catch a break. Also how long is this supposed to be going? Are we gonna get 12 more episodes next season or is it just 3 left for the whole Virgin Soul part? I still feel there was a lot of meandering about this time and that so far the namesake of the show is quite absent. My guess was that Charioce was preparing for the return of said Bahamut trough an ironfist ruling but who knows at this point really.

This show is strange. It's got a great cast & beautiful action & animation, but compared to last season, it just feels... slow. Luckily, I have a solution. 1. Favaro's hair should be bigger and redder. 2. Whenever Favaro's not on the screen, the other characters should shout "FAVAROOOOO"

I was kind of hoping they'd eventually leave the city and go elsewhere once the king's motivations became clear, but that hasn't really happened. The dragonfolk village was lively, but the demons are shacked up in a dark hole somewhere and most of the land of the gods is empty now. This particular tale doesn't take advantage of the vibrant setting as much as the previous one.

The latest episode raises far, far more questions than it answers. Also, Bahamut CGI sticks out like a sore thumb

So we know why Charioce built the giant hand-gun thing, but do we know why he attacked the gods/angels and enslaved the demons?

Well we know he attacked angels because they were the ones guarding the relics he needed. As for the demons, it was a party of them that caused Bahamut to return to begin with, and they were still humanity's enemy. I'm guessing it's got something to do with that.

he could have probably been explicit about the whole "bahamut isn't dead and will come back so let's kill it for real this time" thing and most people would have been pretty on board with it. killing and enslaving the demons is a point that only makes sense for azazel's character arc. it doesn't make any sense for charioce (he even played with those demon kids so he clearly doesn't hate them on general principle like he does bahamut). they'll need to explain that one away at some point but idk how they make him not seem like an rear end in a top hat about itThere Bias Two posted:The latest episode raises far, far more questions than it answers.

except the people working on the hand in prison were all human. i think charioce attacked the demons preemptively. once he weakened the angels and left them even less inclined to help humanity than usual, the demons definitely would have used that opportunity to attack humanity. you know, like they had been doing on and off throughout all of recorded history. a full scale war with demons would suck away all the money and manpower he needed to restore the superweapon. if he wanted to remove the demons as a threat while working on the hand, enslaving their entire race certainly worked. charioce is pragmatic, but still definitely a monster.

the demons in general are handled in a weird way. like in the first season, demons were pretty objectively evil in how the show portrayed them. always trying to attack the human settlements and azazel and cerberus were shown in a pretty negative light. now they're on the receiving end but there's zero introspection on their part about it. feels like they skipped a few steps here

I'm pretty sure the show is still treating him as a villain as well. I agree on the point about the demons, too. Genocide is clearly wrong, especially with how it frames the demons this time around, but I can't help but think about how often demon genocide is treated as acceptable in other shows anyway. If the first season also managed to end with, "And thus, all the demons were vanquished!" would anyone have bat an eye? Demons make the subject matter real weird.

the angels and demons in this setting are utterly divorced from creation myths. they are all just sentient races inhabiting the same world. none of them are inherently good or evil, despite how demons acted in s1.

Oh yeah, and the first few episodes definitely make that clear. No matter how you look at it, Charioce is definitely a horrible person. Even if his end-goal is somewhat positive, the means is just utterly atrocious.

Finally caught up. It's a shame Charioce is such a dick because he and Nina are so cute together. I rarely give a poo poo about romance stuff but they did a great job of giving that couple chemistry. Speaking of which, Kaisar and Favaro are such a great odd couple. The easy friendship they have in this season is sold so well. It's cool to watch grown-man confident badass Favaro. I think the scene where he decked Charioce is the best little moment in a show full of great little moments. I've been up and down on this season but overall I'm positive.

I feel like the plot and characterization is falling really flat here in the final stretch, but I'll be damned if it isn't well executed and entertaining anyway. The show is just fun to watch, regardless of what's happening and I think that has a lot of merit in itself. Also Rita is still the best.
