Kita ze Inbou! - キタぜ陰謀!

[ Episodes 83-84: ~ ]

Damn. Krory vs. Jasdebi was down excellent justice. The fight was as intense as I remember it in the manga, I’d say even more so. The sounds of fury and struggle echoed throughout the episode and there were points where you could feel that the danger involved was real. I loved how the anime team handled the Krory/Eliade scene. It was extremely touching to see two people who love each other share such a crucial moment together. Really, if it wasn’t for Eliade I think Krory would have been pretty much done for. “Bloody Krory” really kicked Jasdebi’s ass all over the place though I would’ve liked to see a definite conclusion rather than the two of them walking away from their last blow. Then again, Jasdebi likely couldn’t continue since their body was almost totally infected by Innocence. In the end, we’re left in limbo of both of their fates.

Now, my favorite part of this arc has begun with Allen, Lenalee, and Lavi arriving at the last building where Road and Tyki were waiting. A whole ton of awesome is about to be unleashed and the tension is maddening, especially since everyone will be sitting down at the table talking for a while. You can just feel that at any moment someone is going to jump up and raise hell! I can’t wait to see how the animation team handles the upcoming battles as there will be a lot of new techniques shown off from pretty much everyone involved in the fighting.
