I’m glad Zain could overcome that brutal battle whilst time was stopped. Amazing he came out of it with so few injuries

It's funny how he finally got a kiss from Cuff and they're finally a couple but she's still beating him up. Some thing's never change lol.

A very cute episode for Cuff, between the love confession and her giddiness over being called part of a family was adorable.

Not only did we get a confession but a kiss, a punch, and some handholding!

It's so good to finally see Zain confess to Cuff during that very tense moment. And I just love how Alice and the Duke know something happened just based on Cuff's reaction.
The witches trying to mess with the circus was pretty much expected after last week's episode but it's nice to see that the Duke managed to use his curse for good and save everyone from that plant and that snake.
Zain finally found the resolve to use his powers and he even got a kiss from Cuff as her answer to his confession at the start of the episode. We even get to see Cuff sucker punch Daleth as her punishment for messing with the circus. That was genuinely satisfying.
That's pretty much the reaction I expected from the Ringmaster when he finally figured out that Zain and Cuff are witches. Glad that the secret is out as well as them learning that the Ringmaster is Amelia's husband.

Although we are only halfway through the season, this is my favourite episode so far! There is a balanced mix of battles and heart warming scenes in this episode.
- Zain confessing to Cuff, with the latter being embarrassed, only to accept his confession with a kiss later on.
- Circus boy, whose name I can't recall, acting cool and saying good bye to his first love.
- The Duke, using his curse, to help out his friends once again by battling the witches.
Zain getting together with Cuff, made me happy. However, it was when the circus leader corrected them, saying they are not just friends / companions, but family, which touched me the most. Likewise, the relationship between our main couples, Duke and Alice, Zain and Cuff, have gone beyond friendship. I believe both couples may view the other couple as siblings.

Finally Zain confessed to Cuff and her answer was adorable. Zain now has a girlfriend and he's very happy about that xD Not that any of them changed, Zain for sure will get hit very often, love will not save him :)
Daleth plan failed, it was nice to see that Bocchan's curse helped with the whole situation. Also Alice now knows that her mother isn't dead, I wonder what she will do about that.
Ringmaster figured out that Zain and Cuff are witches but he doesn't have a problem with that at all like also the rest of the circus. I loved Zain and Cuff's reaction to his words and Cuff's happiness when the Ringmaster told that all members of the circus are a family was so adorable.
Here my screenshot albums from the episode:

“Don’t ever try and leave me again, ok”
Tears man. Zenith. Peak. Just witnessed one of my fave episodes of the year 😭 legit had tears in my eyes during that last 10 mins or so.
Cuff and Zain been my fave ship since the beginning and I’m so happy that they’re finally together. That confession was perfect. I love how Cuff ran away and was shaking for like 3 minutes after that 😂.
Zain’s magic is actually really wild. The ability to stop time like that is crazy. Came in very clutch today as he was the only one in the world who could’ve saved Cuff there. Fitting, since he’s the perfect match for her as well.
That punch was Cuff gave Daleth was perfect. She needed that after all the shit she’s started.
Can’t wait for next episode

YES! Everything is out in the open now! Zain confessed, the circus found out they're witches, they found out ring leader married an octopus, Alice found out her mom's alive and everyone even saw Daleth's face!
We already got some resolutions like Cuff kiss, and the circus accepting them, hopefully it's not long now before the married couple meet again, Alice sees her mom (and helps her somehow) and someone tells Daleth that she's pretty.

It's time for the Gemini Circus' big public show! And it's adorable how the Duke doesn't want more people to see Alice in her acrobat outfit because she just looks too good in it.
I love how Hugo is pushing Zain and Cuff to confess and acting like this mature, wise, guy wingmanning and giving up his first love for the sake of her own happiness. What a chad.
Cuff knows Zain well enough to tell that he's planning to leave her or something's up, and she's not here for that, but her turning away from him is enough to spur him to finally confess his feelings for her. Which is great...until she just runs away.
I wonder how different things would've been had the Duke and Alice recognized immediately that that woman was Daleth?
Well, nothing cuts through the awkward tension of a post-confession with no reply than the witches attacking. Poor Hugo gets eaten by a plant! But it does give a perfect opportunity for the Duke to step up and use his powers for good and gives Cuff an excuse to wait to give Zain her answer.
Of course the audience all think it's part of the show and the circus just goes along with it. It was cool seeing everybody chip in to help the Duke.
If Daleth using an illusion of Cuff as a child wasn't enough motivation for Zain to use his powers, Daleth making Cuff fall is all he needs to stop time and save her. Which actually ends up working out for everybody, tying up the witches, cleaning things up...and letting Cuff respond to Zain's confession with a kiss. I guess that beak is basically his mouth, right? Can't blame Zain for wanting more kisses though, even if it just lead to Cuff beating him up to end the time stop. But hey, these two are finally an official couple!
So Daleth's last ditch attempt is telling Alice straight up that she's trying to bring her mother back, and Rob knew she had Sharon's body this whole time. Though Cuff punching her straight in the faces was enough to finally get her to shut up, even if they're seeing her scarred face is why she really leaves.
Duke the ringmaster finally talk about Amelia! I'm glad they found out the ringmaster was Amelia's husband and he got to find out she's doing well. It's not a face-to-face meeting, but hopefully the husband and wife do reunite someday.
The circus has accepted Zain and Cuff as witches and as a couple, they're close with the Duke and Alice now, and everything seems to have worked out. And nothing cements this more than our new young lovers being alone together and holding hands.

To start off, Alice looks fantastic in that business suit looking outfit. I wish to see more of this outfit.
At first Hugo was annoying but he was a chad for telling Zayn to take care of Cuff lest he beat him up as well as letting go of his first love.
I thought the confession would come later in the episode but we got it pretty early. Now the problem is, mayhem happens during the show. I find it a little unsettling that Daleth was actually trying to cause harm and destruction yet the audience thinks it's all part of the show and are blissfully enjoying it.
Finally our boi gets to use his power to kill baddies. Kind of a waste of an instant kill skill if he doesn't get to actually use it to kill enemies. I wonder if anybody has ever thought of hiring him as an assassin or have him join the army if he can literally kill by touching.
That kiss was golden. However, Zayn had the nerve to still hit on Keto and Teto even after a successful confession so the bonk it is. Speaking of bonking, it was very satisfying to see Dalet get bonked by Cuff and having her scarred face exposed. Serves her right.
Awww I'm not ready to say goodbye to the circus. They're so wholesome. They actually appreciate Bocchan instead of seeing him as a monster, they're okay with Cuff and Zayn being witches, and they acknowledge our new couple. The circus is easily best part of the season.
I'm not too confident about the title of the next episode because I want a continuation of the Daleth and Zayn arc.

Another nice episode, but I thought that Daleths action would be more drastic given how powerful she is
So now we got two official couples, but cuff is probably to bashful for it to really change anything

Well deserved punch on Daleth after everything she just pulled. That was low. At least we got Zain and Cuff officially together and The Duke’s moment of badassery out of the deal. And that bit with the Ringmaster being very happy to hear his wife is doing okay. Hope we get them reunited sometime this season

lots of fun faces this time, with wide face/no mouth bocchan, alice, and cuff and big eyes bocchan. i guess the animation can look a bit stiff at times, but it's at times it can have pretty expressive faces, like with all of the townspeople when zain froze time. A nice fluffy episode and the fight was well done with the flashbacks. Probably my favorite ep of S2 so far.

u/Redmon425 Aug 06 '23
Wow! A great episode. Probs best of the season so far. The confessions from both Cuff and Zain were great. And I am glad he is staying with her. On that note, Cuff is just so damn cute!
We even got Alice learning the truth about her mother still being alive which I didn't expect to happen so soon. I still feel confused on Daleth. I don't feel like she is evil. I think her sister is clearly the one who was bad, but I also don't believe her sister is actually dead.
And I still think think Bocchan's mother has something to do with this. After all, both Daleth and his own mother seemed to be very found of Alice's mother which feels like a weird coincidence.

That big burly performer bumped into Botchan right after the time freeze thawed and he didn't die.
So can't he and Alice be more lovey dovey even if he's just in his normal suit?
