The Third 10 - The awesomness continues

Filed under: The Third


Honoka is really beginning to feel unsteady. It’s also due because of the last episode. Honoka has never killed a human before. And she doesn’t get it because she has killed all kinds of other things too. But this person, she just can’t forget it. She already was unsteady, but this episode, it’s getting worse and worse. I think that she feels like someone is calling for her, out in the Time Warp. I just don’t know why. But what did bother me was a suggestion of Bogie that she has never killed a human with a katana. And otherwhise, yes, she has killed. I wonder what? I think it’s due to her eye. Remember those antthingeys? It must be something like that.


Ikus wakes Honoka up, and she bumps her head to the ceiling. Saying that it was nothing, she just went for a second under the shower, and giving Ikus the feeling that she isn’t herself and that something has happened. Bogie explains the nightmares, and Honoka says that it is nothing already. They go to talk a bit, about what happened and so. Honoka is really glad that Ikus is back, but she realises that he can’t be with her forever. She tries to be cheerful, but in fact, she is really gloomy. I know about that tactic. In fact, I use it myself. I so loved that moment with Honoka watching her feet. She wanted not to talk about it, but well. Ikus asked her if she could turn back from her mission. We already know that Ikus knows more about all kinds of things. With the end of the episode, I understood. The Third is firering a superpowerful weapon into the warp. Ikus is going there because has interest in it, don’t know why, but this will kill Honoka.


With Honoka feeling unsteady, Paife feels annoyed. Also because a man is on board the mission. And she hates men. With this, and the moment that Honoka never killed a human before (the face of Ikus was just wonderful) she goes to Honoka and scolds her. Saying that she should know that it is killed or to be killed, that she is holding back, that Paife is a killer and that she doesn’t care and so. Paife really gets so annoyed that she starts to fight her. But with and without weapons, Honoka is much and much stronger. Paife calls her later ‘a monster’. But that is maybe only because Paife was defeated for the first time. This fight was just awesome. I don’t really know why Paife did such a thing, maybe it was just to let go of her aggression or trying to get to feel Honoka better.


At the end, this is where they are heading. Honoka is called in this direction. I don’t really know what it is and what is calling her, but damn, I’m so curious about it!


And at the end of the Third, Joganki realised that Honoka is in life danger. With this weapon, the possibility to survive is just as much as zero. But they can’t take off the mission just because of her. I liked this moment because it was really shown that Joganki has feelings for her. Only Honoka is too stubborn to accept it and because she has Ikus.
Damn, what am I curious about the coming episodes. This was just great, with Honoka as their great leader. I can move me so much in that character.

Good Witch of the West Review - 78/100


This is a decent anime. But even so, I don’t know where I should start in reviewing. This anime with his 13 episodes, it’s short. Maybe, too short. Because of that, the anime has a real high pacing to go to all the episodes. With that, you can miss information and the story doesn’t make any sence anymore. There are all kinds of weird terms that even I can’t understand what on earth they are meant by it.  You can say that this anime has his good points and his bad points. I recommend this anime for everyone that wants to look at a great art anime. This anime has the beautiful art ever and it really shines in it. The colors are bright, many colors and it’s just beautiful.

This is a romance fantasy anime, with political influences. The story is about the young girl Firiel that has the right to become the next queen of a land that has a difficult name. And she is in love with a heathen that studies all kinds of sciences. The good thing about this boy, Roux, is that he has glasses. And that he can be seen as the greatest nerd ever, but even so, he remains her hero and he keeps on saving her and saving her. That is so cool. I’m a glasseswearer myself, and because of that, I’m called a nerd. He is so a nerd, but even so, the nerd is the hero. I just love that.

The major bad point for me in this anime is that the two maincharacters, Roux and Firiel, are the biggest adolescences ever when it comes to hold their relationship together. It can get a bit TOO annoyed in the end but finally they make up one episode before this anime ends. But I had really my annoynce tested with this anime. But even so, all the characters of this anime are greatly thought about it, and they have all their own story.

But, the music of this anime makes up for the adolescence thing. The music is just beautiful and can give a great point also for this anime. My thumbs up! The tension is created just by the music and you can really feel the atmosphere about it. Well, to put it together, everyone that wants to see a great fantasy story with romance, watch it, but pay attention because otherwhise you won’t be able to understand it. And everyone that can watch teenager love. I just can’t.^^
