Kita ze Inbou! - キタぜ陰謀!

Impressions:

This was a very intense episode. The battles continue to be magnificent. Also, Sara was wicked awesome in her new Strain. So much so that it seems that because of it she can take on Ralph as an equal. Moreso than Lotti anyways. I find it interesting how Lotti also had a brother who was a Reasoner, although we find out that he was killed by Ralph in a past battle. I wondered what her reason for revenge was during episode 3 and now I know (I figured she had lost someone, just not a brother). She and Sara may become closer or move away from each other depending on how Sara approaches the fact of Lotti wanting to kill her brother. It’ll be interesting to see how that turns out. Another thing is that Sara definitely has a lot of willpower to deal with the bullying of others because honestly I wouldn’t blame the girl for beating the crap out of the majority of the morons that gang up on her. And on a final note, the new characters introduced this episode were quite colorful. I’m looking forward to more Lavinia in future episodes.
