[ Episode 13: Hiding Girl ]

Get your plot on! G-G-Get your plot on!

Major plot advancement for the win! This entire episode was devoted to the plot and the revelations don’t disappoint. I’m not sure if the next episodes are going to be like this but if Noir is any indication the second half of El Cazador will probably be more plot-centric than the first half.

In this episode we find out about Ellis’ origins. In short, she was created along with many others to be new Witches in the present era. We pretty much new she was a Witch already but we didn’t exactly know how she came to be. The other revelation, which came right from LA’s mouth, is that he and Ellis are the sole survivors of those created Witches. Ellis has the magic power and LA has the superhuman strength. I suppose that order of things make sense gender-wise. Either way, Ellis still doesn’t like LA despite all of the thing she found out and wants to stay with Nadie. This action alone tells us just how attached she is to Nadie now. Speaking of Nadie, she found the slides of all the children that were created from the Witch DNA of the past. Needless to say she was disgusted when she connected those children together with what seems to be the remains of them in a tunnel she came across (this is evident in when she destroyed the slides and kept on shooting even though they were already lit aflame after the first shot). This, I think, only strengthened her resolve to protect Ellis now.

Blue Eyes also appeared in this episode, though she was mostly in a helicopter. Rosenburg was also present and met with a new character (who seems to be some sort of politician). On another note, where the hell did those guys in the masks come from? Rosenburg certainly couldn’t have sent them since he has Ricardo to protect Nadie and Ellis. Blue Eyes thought that they were from Rosenburg but that can’t be the case. Also, that strange woman who left Nadie and Ellis the car was going to shoot those masked guys and is apparently on the same side as Blue Eyes. So the question is, just who in the world sent them?

Well, whatever the case I’m looking forward to more episodes like this. More plot advancement please!
