This is easily the best episode from this current mission. Not only did it conclude the mission, it was pretty entertaining as well. The writers may not follow every detail of the manga, but for most of the events they stay true to the manga. It was fun to watch the rest of the plot unfold, but I thought they could have done a better job with the action scenes. At the rate they’re moving at I think the series could easily surpass 26 episodes well before they reach the manga’s current story. I look forward to the next episode simply because Linali will be part of it. Not having any recollection of the story in the upcoming episode makes me uncertain whether or not it will span more than one episode.
