*HEADPHONE WARNING AND STUNNED SILENCE*
The tension and intrigue dials up to an eleven this episode, as we learn more about "Ryuzaki" aka "L," and his plan to expose "Kira" aka Light, who meanwhile is trying to dispose of Shoko Maki before she tells the authorities what she's discovered about Light, which could unravel all of his plans!
This episode ran the complete gambit, going through ALL of my theories and then s...

**MAKEUP-RIDDEN HEADPHONE WARNINGS**
This season is off the rails two episodes in, but kind of in the BEST WAY possible! I feel the mangaka is having a BLAST putting our poor boys in the most "flashy" of situations and Tengen is a force to be reckoned with -- when he's not herding cats -- I mean demon corps members!
This episode was wild and I love the set up and the mission of infiltrating and rescuing/aiding Tengen's wives! I have a feeling this may be an Inosuke-centered ...

After that whirlwind of an arc last volume, the roller coaster doesn't stop! We segue into the "Blue Forest" where we get some more lore tied to our sweet, cinnamon bun Blue Dragon, and then...more water tribe shenanigans?
Soo-Won's bachelor woes? Hak and Yona just needing to confess their feelings? A cliffhanger and our girls possibly in danger yet again?! Oh, Kusanagi-senpai, you know JUST how to reel us in deeper into this story!
Thanks for rea...

So what would happen if a military base and city, that almost solely requires electricity to function, suddenly had a blackout? We find out this episode, but the timing couldn't be worse -- as an angel has arrived to wreak havoc! Luckily, our trio of Evangelion pilots get to have their first "mission" together, backed by NERV and even Shinji's father is back gets involved (somewhat)!

This was my FIRST dive into a full-blown Japanese anime stage play, and I REALLY enjoyed it! Many thanks to @Lady_Mug for supplying the link and @KixKay for telling me about them! I forgot to edit you into the video itself, but THANK YOU!
There unfortunately wasn't subtitles for this, but that did NOT stop me from my commentary and having a BLAST watching this! It was wonderful seeing the play acted out...if we can't get an anime of this, this will work! ...

We all knew it was going to happen, but this episode and the handling of Thors' character was astounding. What a LEGEND. I'm in awe of the pacing, the themes, and what this episode left on the table for the rest of the season and setting up for I feel the rest of the story.
And Thorfinn...my boy...a 6-year-old son's rage at his father's fate and not being able to understand his father's teachings to the fullest. Oof. Askeladd continues to intr...

Our poor King, Jean! He just can't catch a break, can he? It's so funny and yet odd seeing Jean with his Season 1 personality, trying to impress all of the ladies in the series and figure out who has a crush on him...and when we find out who DOES...well...he's our bisexual king for a reason!
This was probably my one of my favorite episodes so far! The animation and some of the expressions were SO ...

I feel I've met a right of passage as a "Yona" fan in reading this volume and watching the OVA's, but y'all...where do I even start?
This was by far the most brutal, heartbreaking volume of the series so far and the OVA's drove me to tears (a rare feat), in just how tragic the life of our sunshine dragon is...and why he holds these dragons and Yona so close to his heart. Is Zeno my favorite dragon now? He may just be! Y'all, this is my new favori...

What seems like a "set up" episode adds more to the mystery, more to Kaji's sketchiness, more to Shinji and Asuka's relationship, and more to this world where 8th grade field trips go scuba diving and 14-year-old saviors dive into magma to capture "angel eggs." What a journey we're on so far, right?
I definitely feel sorry for Shinji, and Asuka too, dealing with puberty in this post-apocalyptic w...

On top of that, we have Haruichi stabbing us in the feels, Furuya taking his next step towards becoming a better player, and seeing how the first years ...
