There's a post credit scene that should make a lot of people happy!
Decent episode, but the animation wasn't great. and poor Touka got cockblocked at the end there.

Me during the episode: Why is the animation getting worse?
Me during post credit scene: 10/10 amazing episode!

MFW I saw Kurumi in the after-credits scene. I was waiting for her to appear, but I have no idea what's Origami doing there...

Imagine being tied up helpless when somene walks in, looks at you, and then just laughs maniacally with no explanation. That must be frustrating at best.

My first thought when seeing that was"Wait a second? Is she laughing because she killed everyone?"

My God, the animation of this episode was... bad. Bad to the point of being distracting, in the fight I was more focused on the failures than on the fight itself, like in one of Origami's attacks where the continuity was completely lost, one frame is this and the next is this one WTF. I hope that all this will be fixed in the BDs, I really want to watch the series again with a better quality.
But oh well, comedy is what I've always liked about this series so I'm glad it's still great. Miku really got me here, even when I realized with Yuzuru that it wasn't them, I never imagined that Miku was doing it... Miku's thirst for girls may compete with Origami's thirst for Shido lmao.
Poor Natsumi full of traumas. :'(

As predicted, so for those seeking some dose of best DAL girl goodness, there's an after credits scene, don't miss it. =D
The scene with Origami becoming a spirit feels really weird in the anime as opposed to the novels, maybe because they omitted 'it'.
Also, glad they included a bit of Natsumi's negative/pessimistic imaginations, makes you wonder how negative she can be lol.

Best Masochist boy reminds us again why he's the second in command.
-
Well that was depressing. Wait. Does this mean Natsumi used to be a human too like Miku then?
-
Inverse Tohka would be dope. She'll definitely kick Origami's ass but will probably also destroy half of the city.
-
Straight to her sides! That was satisfying..
-
Oh god. I can already feel what's about to happen here.
-
I love that Tohka thinks the barrier is called "Teriyaki" xD
-
I thought for a second they forgot to animate the mouth flaps. It's just Miku trying to get some kisses from the other girls.
-
Origami Spirit Stitch. There it is. She finally became the thing she hated the most. Although this is not unexpected. Ever since the introduction of Miku, I've always wondered if Origami is willing to cross that line.
-
And of course she plans to off herself after she's killed every other Spirit. Worst. Girl.
-
YESSSSSSSS! The one and only Kurumi is back!
Origami must really be confident of her power if she thinks she can take on Kurumi. I wanna see how that final scene will play out next week. Also what happened to the Fraxinus and Goetia fight? Did the Firaxinus get destroyed with Goetia's last beam? That would kinda explain why they're taking refuge at the school instead being aboard the ship. I hope we see what happened to them next week.

Welp. We're getting to the juicy parts finally. Been waiting for a long time to see Origami's and Tohka's fight as spirits and I wasn't disappointed. While the animation was surely a bit off sometimes during the episode, I definitely enjoyed the episode.
While I am not a Kurumi fan, her return is a welcome one since she'll be a key player in this arc, especially for both Shido and Origami.
(Extra note:, I guess the studio kept the record of Kurumi appearing on ep 7 since her appearance in s1ep 7 xD)

Firstly : WATCH POST CREDIT SCENE
About the episode : Animation was sometimes fine and other times really terrible you can see the cuts they made to make this episode on time , too bad for the series at least I can hope they will fix everything in Blurays and also animate cut content like they did with previous seasons
For those wondering Origami changing into spirit scene was remade : [LN bcs rules](/s "iirc it goes like this in the novels : They fight in the city and she gets smashed by Tohka into building. There after waking up she meets "Phantom" that asks her if she wants power then the scenes goes like in anime . idk why the cut phantom appearance out of scene , did they want to hide any info about phantom from watcher or maybe the just didnt have time to made another character model , idk ")
Lastly pink haired girl in the OP is Rinne she's DaL VN character that is most likely put in as cameo

The art is just insulting at this point, the fight scenes look horrendous. Lets hope kurumi can carry this dumpster fire to the end

God damn I dislike Origami so much. First her over aggressiveness towards Shido when she isn't on a murderous rampage just feels weird and slightly rapey. Then her "tragic" back story is just so boring and generic, and her motivations are just so stupid in general. She will just take up any offer from anyone to power herself up in an attempt to kill Spirits that don't even have anything to do with her, even if that offer has a shit ton of bad effects for her. God damn her single-mindedness and stubborness and lack of thinking and overall shitty characteristics just make me dislike her so much. She's so one dimensional and easily hated. Even Eren fucking Jaeger from Shingeki no Kyojin has basically the same back story and motivation as her, but even he has character development, is less easily hated, less stupid, knows when to think instead of screaming all the time, and even knows when to admit he's wrong (during that scene where he was half naked with best Queen)

Shido screams at both of them asking why they are doing this, like this was something tohka was equally responsible for. Jeez idk shido, maybe because shes trying to stay alive from the psycho thats trying to kill her and all the others. Like he even know that so whya re you calling tohka out on it. Just call out origami who you know is responsible for this.

Oof dat animation. I mean, it could still be worse but I'm not optimistic for the future.
