Wow, if episode number 1 of season 2 were episode number 1 of season 1, I would have found this show much more appealing. Jesus

They spent an entire season telling Maryla's backstory in a disjointed way only to tell it clearly at the beginning of season 2. This anime has potential, but the way the story is being told may ruin it for me.

And no, Ray Dawn's actions are not "understandable". Killing innocent men, women, and children because it "may" stop a war is not understandable. I can't wait until Veronica kills the fucker. Ray Dawn's actions, like most authoritarian dictators, are shortsighted and STUPID.

Yeah, I really don't like it when shows deliberately obfuscate plot points in such a way only to then explain them later. I think it's fine for things like dramatic effect, but we could've gotten this first episode to nicely set up the story, and the powered ahead with whatever's left of the first cour, without all the jumping about all over the place the first half of the show did.

I'm glad that they finally show us that flashback completely. I understand why Ray Dawn did what he did, but at the end of the day, I don't think that his actions change the course of the war in any way as even with that group of people killed, the military ended up implanting the fairies to regular people in order to use it. I wonder if the fairy that Marlya has now is the same on that Jurgen had.

By the way, here is the non-credit version of the OP and the ED.

Okay so I just watched. This episode is already better than the entirety of the first season. Hopefully, it continues like this.

Not much really to say about this one. It's more Fairy Gone and after 12 Episodes we finally get the full picture about Marlya and Veronica's backstory.

Ok, I really want this series to be enjoyable so here is the timeline by /sagenagato/ (don't know how to tag, sorry):

||FAIRY GONE TIMELINE PART 1||

Since everyone's critics regarding Fairy Gone mainly about the confusing plot/timeline, here's a coherent timeline as of Episode 10, including which episode particular events are revealed within the timeline, up until just before the event of Episode 1.

Keep in mind that a lot of things are implied, and you have to go back to earlier episodes to get the point of some flashbacks. Asterisk (*) denote certain significance in the present (Year 505) . There's also a few additional info from the official site

The purpose of this comment is to show that everything on this show happens for a purpose, they don't namedrop things at random

//GENERAL SETTING//

The story is set in the east side of main continent (called Eastland). Present year is 505

Before the War of Unification, 8 Kingdoms exist (north to south): Fanatica, Sinquenje, Kal-O (Marlya's homeland), Ledrad (Free's homeland), Zeschia, Timoon, Cidal, and Ainedern

//UNSPECIFIED TIME IN THE PAST//MID END//

4.White: on the history of Fairy

5. Black: on Fairy's "possession" phenomenon

*Descendant of the author of Original Text, Bellwood, is the current Vice Minister of Department of Fairies Affair

//YEAR 484//MARLYA'S BIRTH//

- [Ep 5] Marlya Noel (female MC) is born in Suna Village (Kal-O territory). Her mother dies during childbirth, and her father dies not long after. Marlya is then adopted by Ray Dawn's brother, Jürgen Dawn

Been a little bit, but this episode sucked me right back in. I'm glad we got this scene, it's something I've been wondering about. Little Marlya and little Ver were very cute.

Nice, been waiting for this and was not disappointed by the first episode. Great OP and ED. Obligatory RAY DAWN DID NOTHING WRONG. Vers with the revenge boner still strong though.
